POPE ASSAILS NATIONALISM Pope Pius Deplores Italy’s Imitation Os Hitler Theories Castel Gandolfo, July 29.—KU.R) —Pojje Pius XI attacked excessive nationalism and racism for the i third time in two weeks today and criticized Italy's "unhappy imlta- i tion” of Germany's racial theories. I There were reports the pope might issue an encyclical on the subject soon. Addressing a group of young missionary students from the col-I lege of propagation, the Holy Fath-1 er said: "We ask ourselves why Italy, with unhappy imitation, felt it necessary to copy Germany.’’ He recalled that he was the son of a Milanese, who in 1848 drove the Germans from Milan and that therefore “someone could accuse me of being prejudiced, which is not so.” The pope said that the only Sane recism was the dignity of the human being and family “because men must be men. not beasts, and must gather in one sole big family.” "This is the church’s answer to recism.” he said, “and this for the church is sane recism worthy of men.” The pope told the students he received an important communication today, but he declined to reveal its nature. Because of his outspoken attitude on racial nationalism, some observers suggested that the communication might have dealt with Italy’s new racial credo which gradually is being put into effect. Several weeks ago the Holy

Recalling the windshield “gadget" law. which both houses previously had passed, and repassing it after eliminating all provisions requiring motorists to buy titleholder containers. Gov. Townsend had opposed this provision and Sent it hack to the assembly. House Democrats went into caucus after the senate passed the unemployment compensation bill to determine whether they had strength enough to shove it through without delay. After a stormy session. the house decided to hold a public hearing at 2 p. m. this afternoon before beginning work on the measure. The bill would remove a section from the statute providing that all persons applying for unemployment compensation must have earned $lO since April 1. 1938, to be eligible for benefits. The fund has been accumulating for more than a year. Proponents of the measure asserted that many workers have piled up reserves during the past year but are unable to obtain any money because they were thrown out of work prior to April 1. Clarence A. Jackson, director of unemployment compensation, told the senate that approximately
WOUNDS WIFE AND DAUGHTER Indiana Man Wounds Divorced Wife And Daughter, Shoots Self Harvey, 111.. July 29 —(U.PJ—Waii ter Burton, 44, of Highland, Ind., I drove over to see his divorced wife .u>d daughter early today — and then for aotne unaccountable reason shot them and himself. Burton and his daughter, Jean, 14, were taken to Ingalls memorial boni i'ital in a critical condition. His former wife, Mrs. Lillian Pearl Willis, I 34, was expected To recover. Mrs. Willie told police Burton rapped on her bedroom window and (raid: “I want to talk to you for a i minute.” She opened the front door and I Burton strode in with a pistol In ! his hand. Burton fired a bullet through her breast directly over the heart. She . fled to another room but he forced j open the door and put another bullet into her body. Then he went to the bedroom | where Jean lay sleeping and fired a | shot into her back. Mrs. Freda Cannon, with whom Mrs. Willie and Jean were visiting, screamed but Burton cow*ed h,er with the gun and growled: "get back or I’ll kill you too.” Burton then placed the gun to his temple and pulled the trigger. The bullet wounded him severely but was not fatal. He staggered to the front porch and put anothei bullet into his head. He still had strength enough to crawl to an alley. Mrs. Willie was unable to account for Burton’s action. She said she saw him recently for a short time but they did not quarrel. Burton had not seen Jean since she was eight months old. when they were divorced. she said. Both had remarried. o— — JUDGING TEAMS (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) and contest.

The association’s house of delegates debated resolutions of the section of International and comparative law urging a third Hague conference to condemn nations violating international agreements and protesting agaist civilian bombings. The section pointed to results of the recent Pan-American conferences as evidence of what could be achieved in settlement of international issues at another Hague conference. The resolution scored bombings of civilians in the Spanish and Sino-Japanese conflicts by quoting the U. S. rules of land warfare that: "Military necessity does not admit of cruelty—that is, the inflict-
50.000 Hoosier citizens would be eligible for payments if this section were repealed. He estimated that the maximum paid out would amount to about $7,500,000. “I would say. however, that an estimate of halt that amount would be fairly high because that figure is based on maximum payments to all eligible workers." Jackson said. The conference committee added $15,000 to the building appropriations measure, raising the allocation for an Indiana University extension building in Lake county from $55,000 to $70,000. The extra funds are to be used for purchasing laboratory equipment and a site for the structure. A stiff fight broke out in the house over the conference commit- ! tee's report on welfare but it finally was adopted, 54 to 36. The I rebellion was led by Rep. Arthur J. Gladieux, D., Fort Wayne, who announced after the vote that he would run for re-election next fall ! as an independent. He did not seek renomination in the primary. Gladieux charged that Allen i county "has been read out of the | Democratic party and should be j seated with the Republicans." "This is a one-ring circus.” he declared, "the people of Indiana I will say that this session proves , we have the biggest bunch of jack I asses we ever had in the legisi lature." Passage of the unemployment I compensation measure set off the i explosion in the senate. Rep. Wil- ; Ham Jenner of Pavoli, Republican I floor leader, was a co-introducer of j the bill but he charged it was I “one of the slickest political tricks i in Indiana legislative history." "I am co-author of this bill because if the Republicans did not I; support it we would be accused by new dealers of being conservatives, moss-backers and opposed to labor We are not conservatives ; and we stand for labor. It is noth- ■ Ing but a cheap trick to buy 50,000 I votes,”

John Metaxas assumed full powers as premier, foreign minister, war minister, navy minister ■ and air minister under King George 11. Greece was declared a kingdom by a cohstituent assembly October 1 11, 1935, and King George reassumed the throne after a plebiscite held on November 3, 1935. During recent months a number | of opposition political leaders have been arrested on charges of platting against the state. In March 1935, the growing; strength of the monarchist move-; ment caused a revolt by liberal elements under the late Eleutherios Venizelos.

(1:30 p. m. CST.) It began its flight from Alameda (San Francisco) airport Saturday, flying first to Hawaii, then to Guam. Pan American Airways had in-, sisted that it did not anticipate the Clipper’s arrival before 6 p. m., but at 3:30 p. m. the army had dispatched the Meigs at full steam toward the Clipper’s last position. At 6 p. m. Pan American announced that the Clipper was approximately two hours overdue compared to normal, but that there were slight headwinds in the vicin-1 ity of the Philippines which might account for the delay. Pan American Airways officials said the Clipper carried enough fuel to remain aloft until 10 p. m. (8 a. m. CST.) The night was dark and cloudy and ground crews here, ordered to remain at their posts, said it would be difficult for the big seaplane to land. Samar Island is the eastermost of the Philippine Islands, located off the center of the group. It is approximately 250 miles east and a little to the south of Manila. Samar is 1500 miles west of Guam. The only accident which the line ; has suffered was during an experimental flight of the Samoan Clip- ' per which crashed into the sea on January 11 while blazing a new
commercial air trail to Auckland, N. Z. Capt. Edwin C. Musick, who was at the controls of the Hawaii Clipper on the first commercial flight to Manila, perished with six companions in the Samoan Clipper. He had been at the controls in every inaugural flight of his company. The Hawaii Clipper was the second trans-Pacific airliner. The first was the China Clipper and later came the Philippines Clipper. All had regular mail flights since November, 1935. and all have i made regular passenger flights since October 21. 1936. Orders Search Washington, July 29 — (U.R) — Admiral Harry E. Yarnell, com-mander-in-chief of the U. S. Asiatic fleet, today ordered all available navy craft in the vicinity of Manila to begin search for a Pan-American Clipper, missing with 15 persons aboard. Yarnell radioed the navy department that he has directed Rear 1 Admiral George J. Meyers, commandant of the 16th naval district with headquarters at Manila, to take charge of the navy search and to use all available ships and planes Yarnell is aboard his flagship, the heavy cruiser, U. S. S. Augusta. off the China coast. The army transport Meigs radioed the war department at 12:30 a. m., Manila time, (10:30 a. m., CST) that it had found no trace of the missing Clipper. The Meighs was searching carefully over the general area where the plane last reported its position. The Meigs did not give its position in the radio message. According to navy information, Meyers has at his disposal three navy amphibian planes, four destroyers, the Paul Jones, Stewart, Edsall and Parrott; the gunboat Tulsa: the minesweepers Pidgeon and Bittern; the seaplane tender Herron; the submarine tender Canpous; and six submarines. It was presumed that Meyers would organize the search as quickly as possivle.
