TROLLEY STRIKE IS ENDED TODAY Detroit Trolley Men N ote Today To End 32Hour Strike Detroit, Apr. 8. (U.R) — Trolley ineu voted today to end their 32hour strike and to restore service immediately for Detroit’s 800,000 street ear riders. Heeding the pleas of their leaders whom they shouted down yesterday as they went on strike, they voted acceptance of an agreement reached at a conference of street railway directors and union ofll- ’ cjals early today. Cheering and shouting, the strikers poured front their meeting after a 2%-hour session and hurried toward (he city's six car barns. Many were dressed in their uniforms ready to take their cars on the streets immediately. The strike settlement agreement provided: 1. Sole bargaining rights for the union if it can prove that it has a majority of all departments of street railway employes. This action would wipe out a rival unSaturday and Sunday MEAT SPECIALS J Shoulder Steaklb. 20c Sliced Hamlb. 24c Fresh Sidelb. 19c Pure Pork Sausage lb. 19c Nice Meaty Spare Ribs lb ISc Pork Roastlb. 20c & 24c Pure Pork Lardlb. 11c Baby Beef Roast lb 14-17-20 c Baby Beef Steak, lb. 17c-20c Boiling Beeflb. 11c Oranges, dozen 15c Appleslo lb. 25c Potatoes Peck 21c Eggs Doz. 18c Celery, bunchßc Cabbagelb. 3'jc Large Sweet Onions. 2 lb. 15c Oranges,lsc, 2 doz. 25c Bananas 4 lbs. 22c Onion Sets 3 lbs. 10c Open till noon Sunday.

The agreement in effect would circumvent action pending by the supreme court to decide the validity of a seniority system covering both motor coach and street car men. Delay in applying this system, approved by the voters in two elections, was the Immediate cause of the strike. Recognition of the Amalgamated Association of Electric Street Railway and Motor Coach Operators would automatically establish sys-tem-wide seniority and end the dispute. FLOOD WATERS ADD .(CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) into a flooded pit. A Chicagoan dropped dead while shoveling snow and a man was killed in lowa when his car crashed a truck on glassy pavement. Rain-swollen rivers- and creeks , spilled over their banks in a 500- j mile area in Georgia and Alabama Water stood from four to six feet deep in the business section of . Prattville, Ala., where more than 500 persons evacuated the residential section. Flood warnings were issued for river areas from Rome. Ga.. to Mobile. Ala. Indiana rivers surged several 1 feet above the flood stage and sent ' muddy waters cascading over thousands of acres of lowlands The White and Wabash rivers caused chief concern. In southern Illinois, the rising , Wabash drove scores from their lowland farm homes. Several thousand acres of farm land in Green County. Ark., were inundated. Wind-whipped snow or freezing rain that swept over northwestern Missouri, northern Illinois, northwestern Indiana and southern lower Michigan was to continue through today and tonight, according to forecaster J. R Lloyd at Chicago. Traffic was virtually at a standstill and communications were crippled in the midwest by a blizzard that howled in from the frigid i wastes of Manitoba Wednesday and cut through half the United States. Kansas, western and central Oklahoma and northwestern Texas had the heaviest snow in the past 24 hours. Dodge City. Kan., had a 14-inch fall. Heaviest snow in 1 Texas was at Amarillo where three

— By HAKKINON CARROLL Copyright, IWK king Feat urea syndicate. Ina. HOLLYWOOD—For two weeks. ' | patrons of southern California 1 theaters have been applauding the work of a magician. They have been fpoled even more than they I knew, too. for the magician was Chester Morris. Billed under an ' assumed name and using only a mustache to alter his appearance, the star has been testing out the ‘ act m which he opens during April at the State theater in Chicago. The Manchester here is one of the houses where Morris put OVtr his stunt. Managers of the theaters have been in the know, of course, but, so far, no patron has guessed the star's Identity. The dance that Tommy Wunder and Martha Raye put on at the "Big Pineapple" ball was really something, they say. She wore a i leopard skin and not much else. The party was very social. Not many film people there. Odd dilemma out at Warners Situation in the story, "Garden of the Moon”, calls for a band to come to the aid of a spot where the musicians have walked out. Warners wanted a name outfit to play in the picture, but w-ere rebuffed in all quarters. The bands refused to appear as strike-break-ers, even though it was just for a movie. So the studio has been compelled to rewrite the sequence. Jane Stanton, the blonde tennis star, who is Junior Laemmle's favorite companion these evenings, will make a screen test at Twentieth Century-Fox. At that, she is pretty enough to be in the movies. One of the smaller studios is arter Herb Kay to act in western pictures, which Is a laugh to his friends, for the band leader has been a big city boy all his life. Still, his missus, Dorothy Lamour, has never been in a jungle either. And now she's more at home in a sarong than in an evening gown. Separation rumors about the Jack Oakies are wrong, but it'* ' true that Venita Varden is off for , Honolulu. She'll stay in Hawaii I

Nazi Chancellor Adolf Hitler's expansion of the relch already has made French alliances in central Europe of highly doubtful value.

To the north, the insurgents j broke through to Tremp and capI tured a series of huge power plants supplying Barcelona's war industries. Cutting of power lines badly crippled the loyalist industrial center but emergency power hookups prevented paralysis. The Barcelona loyalist regime was reported taking drastic steps to reinforce its "last ditch” de- | senses; executions were reported i increasing rapidly and refugees arriving in France urged that Paris intervene to prevent mass j execution of Barcelona prisoners.

REORGANIZATION BILL ADVANCES Fight Continues Against Stubborn Bipartisan Opposition Washington, April 8 (U.R) Administration forces drove the government reorganization bill forward in the face of stubborn bipartisan opposition today and won tentative house approval of the section providing six administrative assistants for President Roosevelt. A section authorizing the president to appoint the six assistants at annual salaries of SIO,OOO, was [approved without objection. The I section represented a measure upI proved by the house last year ' which was incorporated into the general reorganization measure. Moving steadily toward final action on the measure, most explosively controversial since Mr Roosevelt's reversal on the su- ' preme court fight last summer, the | house moved on to the section deali ing with the comptroller general's office. Fortified by their victory yesteri day in defeating a motion to kill I the bill. President Roosevelt's I leaders were driving for quick passage. But the determined bipartisan opposition continued their fight against the measure. Rep. Michael Stack. D„ Pa . charged that a group of telegrams urging him to vote for the bill Included a "Burchased " message from a democratic ward club of his congressional district. “I know it was purchased.” he said, "liecause every week-end when I go home I set them up for the boys " He said he also received seven telegrams favorable to the bill which he traced and found were sent by employes of a federal works progress administration project in Philadelphia. “I don't know whether they were strict Jewish economic and scientific activities was introduced in parliament. Shanghai: Chinese armies were reported to have stopped the Japanese war machine advance against Hankow. Chinese provisional capital. One of the greatest Chinese armies ever brought together, reportedly using Russian tanks, held off and counter-attacked the Japanese in what some Chinese officials believed might be a turning point in the war. t Washington: Secretary of State Cordell Hull called on the nations of North and South America to stand firmly together in a bond of friendship against the "ominous clouds' which elsewhere menace 1 the fundamental principles of international order.

Defeat Additional Federal Liquor Tax Washington. April 8 — (VP) — Rushing toward final action on its )usiness-uid tax revision program, the senate today eliminated a house i provision from the tax bill for a i 25 cents per gallon Increase in 11- ' quor taxes.
