It was reported that Hitler intended to Summon Ribbentrop and high Nazi party and army leaders to Munich at once to study tne situation precipitated by the French government’s direct question to Ribbentrop as to what Germany would do it Italian claims as regards Tunis provoked a Mediterranean conflict. Mentioned as delegates to attend the conference were field marshal Hermann Goering, air minister; Dr. Paul Joseph Goebbels, minister of chief of the Gestapo, the secret police and Gen. Wilhelm Keitel, chief of the high command of the armed forces. The situation which developed as the result of anti-French agitation, following the signing of a FrenchGerman anti war declaration, was that France sought a specific statement from Germany on the Italian situation. o , CHINA LAUNCHES (CONTLNUEI' FROM PAGE ONE) terior hut were repulsed in many •places. More recently they have been reported spreading out along the coast in the direction of French Indo-Chlna. HEARST PAPER (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) manning trucks and about 40 other AFL truck drivers were standing nearby. About a dozen pickets continued picketing the front entrance. In the earlier clash, the four “non-strikers” were armed with rubber hose, police Sergeant Walter Rentflescz said. He said the men told him they were sent to the branch office on a report that Guildmen were interfering with paper deliveries. Rentflescz said three automobiles containing eight strikers were curbed by the non-strikers and the fight ensued. Participants suffered black eyes and bruises Tunisia, the French have reinforced Fort Saint, jnst across the border from Gadames. while in the north, colonial troops and soldiers of the foreign legion fully man ail strongholds of the new French “Maginot” line based on Gabes, Fom where motor roads run to all sections of the frontier, enabling swift and easy movement of troops, tanks and artil- -—-—-— u —• — •

Police instructed Meigs to ordier his drivers not to rqn their motors so the exhaust fumes were blown across the sidewalk into the pickets' faces and Meigs complied. Forty police were on the scene iat the height of the disturbance but most of these returned to their station when he bulk of the pickets dispersed. The management has contended It cannot bargain with the Guild until the national abor relations board decides whether the Guild or the AFL Is the bargaining agent.
