HITLER BRINGS ‘RING OF FOES’ FOR GERMANY ‘Safety Cordon’ Is Thrown About Nazis’ Land by Rest of Europe. — SUSPICIOUS AND AFRAID Nightmare of Wilhelm II Has Come True: Austria Is Pulling Away. RV WILLIAM PHILIP SIMMS Hwrd hrfifn Ftfttor WASHINGTON. Aug 3 Kaiser Wilhelm lls nightmare—the rnrirrirment of peacetime Germany by a ring of foc<- has become a reality. The man who brought this about was not England s King Edward. Russia* Isvolskv. France s Deicasse, nor yet any of their successors, but Germany s own idol of loday. Chancellor Adolf Hitler himself. The kaiser, in his efforts to win for Germany her place in the sun,” created the Dreibund, the triple alliance composed of Germany, Aus-tria-Hungary and Italy. Whereupon, as a counterpoise, there was created the triple entente between Russia. France and Great Britain—the prewar "circle of iron ' about Germany. Today, instead of having only three hostile nations about her. the new state created by Hitler and Ins Nazis has at least a dozen—in fact, all the rest of Europe. Suspicious and Afraid France, Poland. Belgium, Russia, Czechoslovakia, Rumania, Austria. Hungary, Jugoslavia. Italy. England and others besides, if not hostile are either suspicious or afraid of Hitler and his followers—afraid lest they touch off the European pow-der-ba well. For years Italy and France have been at loggerheads over colonial disputes and armaments. Today, they have reached at leas' a tentative understanding because of the German menace. Poland and Russia have been far more friendly. But they ,ust have signed a treaty of non-negression and friendship because mutual distrust of Hitler. Similarly, the Little Entente of France s allies— Rumania. Czechoslovakia and Jugoslavia—has been renewed because .ill three irel there is danger in being neighbors of Hitlers reich.
Austria Is ‘tilling A '•>' Austria, once on the point of annexing herself o Germany, is now pulling away with all her might to prevent the German Nazis making her the tail of them kite. There is even talk of restoring the throne of the late Emperor - Kmg Charles of Austria-Hungary to his young heir. Prince Otto of Hapsburg. to prevent the Hitlerites taking over Aiustria. France. Italy and Jugoslavia are said to be sounding out each other with this in view. The treatment of the Jews in Germany not only has aroused the people of this race within the German borders, but all over the world; rausing boycotts of German shipping. German goods and everything else Teutonic. Safety C'orden Around Nation The recently signed four-power pact of Rome, engineered by Mussolini. far from being an effort to break through the circle about. Germany. was designed more to save the peace of the world for ten years and give Europe a breathing spell in the hope that, after a decade, the Hitler menace will have waned. Prince Bismarck said the 'zigzag course’’ of Emperor Wilhelm utimately would end with Germany on the rocks. In chancelleries of both sides of the Atlantic opinion seems unanimms that Hitler, even more than the kaiser, is "zigzagging'' toward eventual disaster Hence the safety cordon the rest of the world has thrown about pres-ent-oav Germany.

Kelly's edict to concessionaires “close or clothe your nude dancers"—they were comfortable. Hot Cha San's covering was not strictly clothing, the mayor admitted. but her dance in the midway's Oriental Village was not “vulgar and disgusting.” Hot Cha San wore a coat of gilt paint, and as such appeared more a statue than a human being.

China Faces Dismemberment; ‘Might Is Right’ Rules
By Sri i/ipt-Hotcmil Si tr/i,ijicr Alliance VITASHINGTON. Aug. 3—China ▼ V faces dismemberment Asa result of the Orient's return to the doctrine that might makes right, plus the world's apparent abandonment of the peace machinery when it conflicts with the ambitions of the major powers. China today stands reeling, with her back to the wall, fighting against disintegration. Since the World war. China's main hope lay in the rest of the world giving her time to come out of chaos, unify her people and mold a restless, war-lord-ridden country into a strong nation. The nine-power treaty of Washington. safeguarding Chinas administrative and territorial integrity; the solemn, all-for-one and one-for-all pledges contained in the covenant of the League of Nations. and the oath of non-aggres-sion signed in the Kellogg pact, seemed to offer her such a guaranty. The present trend of the great powers, however, is to get out from under such obligations. In the first real test—Japan's invasion and virtual annexation of Manchuria and Jehol—the peace machine broke down B B B THUS great powers now wish to go ahead with thr partition of China which they began in 1900. there seems little in the way.

I'm going to kill right back," she said.
LABOR BLASTS M’NUTT MOVE Union Leaders in Protest Over Multigraph Plan to Replace Printers. First break between the McNutt regime and organized labor came today with a protest from union leaders against the administration plan to cut SBO,OOO off the state's printing bill by installation of a multigraphing department. The setup for the department was announced last wrek by AdjutantGeneral Elmer F. Straub, originator of the idea. Straub said it was approved by Governor Paul V. McNutt and departmental chieftains of the Governor's cabinet. Protest against the plan came in a letter to the Governor signed by President T. N. Taylor of the Indiana State Federation of Laoor; Secretary Adolph FnU of lhe same organization; Alex Gordon of the Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen, Firemen and Enginemen; Martin H. Miller of the Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen, and Senator E. Curtis White, president of the Allied Printing Tra'des Council. The letter pointed out that the entire plan is contrary to President Roosevelt's recovery program, in that it means cutting off jobs for union scale printers and substituting machine production, manned by cheap labor. The SBO,OOO slate savings estimate comes from Straub. Several thousands of dollars will be expended for equipment and the machines will be used for both outside and interdepartmental communications, Straub said.

Smile With Your NRA Even the Depression Has Its Lighter Side, Recovery Workers Learn.
VEN the depression has its lighter side. and. as the government forces swing into the serious work of putting the country on its feet, officials of the NRA get a laugh occasionally. Francis Wells. Indiana recovery director, submits the following from a garage owner in Elwood. Ind., as Exhibit A: “I am pleased to belong to a group of workers such as our President has laid out," writes the garage man. “and want to say that I could put on two morp men if the cities would see that all the traveling salesmen, stopping in various towns, would put their cars in a garage each night instead of parking on the roads and in front of the hotels.
”If your office would send letters to the chiefs of police in each city and make them see that all these cars are put up at mgnt it would put 3.000 men to work in Indiana. This letter is written with the thought of helping out this labor question. I am open for appointment if you need me.” A Rare Privilege. Indeed A southern Indiana nurseryman wrote: "Folks, one and all: To the President and his force or whoever may be helping to get the country in shape, let me give you an idea The truth*., as I see it is—get those 'bank robbers;’ I mean the head men of any banks that failed. This is as I feel truthful. I am as ever faithful to my country. "P. S. I am sending a copy of this letter direct to the President.” As an example of the patriotic response to the Presidents covenant. Wells submitted th<; following letter from a small shop owner in Warsaw; Peddlers May Be Exempt “I consider it as much of a privilege to sign this agreement as though I had been privJegrd to sign the Declaration of Independence. the Magna Chaua or the Bill of Rights. This is an honor I and a privilege w hich comes to a person once in a lifetime.” Like the carefree gypsies, the small housp to house peddler probably will go on unbothered by codr> or agreements unless a fixed price for every article is declared, according to T.

Cord Enters New Field; Controls Ship Company

Monglia. Tibet and Sinkiang—or Chinese Turkestan—in addition to the eighteen provinces of China proper. 808 BUT Manchuria and Jehol, four immensely rich ptovinces of the northeast, admit'idly now are lost to China unless and until she is able to retake them for herself at the point of the sword. Mongolia virtually is independent territory, with Outer Mongolia leaning more towards Soviet Russia than toward Nanking Chinese Turkestan is in revolt. Anyway, China has never had enough control over that region to collect revenue. Fighting has egain briken out in Szechwan, ’argest and richest of the provinces, bordering on Tibet, while South China looks to Canton more than to Nanking for orders and support. Tibet slowly is falling under the influence of Great Britain, moving up out of India, and vast areas of China are embracing a version of so-called Communism, but which is not Communism at all but a revolt against exis'mg conditions, and the almost universal misery and suffering. Baa f "a HINA is ripe for partition. J more so. even, than she was in 1900 when the great powers actually began it. • The United States prevented it then by demanding and obtaining world recognition of the Open Door. Today, all that is standing between China and the doom she escaped thirty-three years ago, apparently are the mutual international jealousies and the fear what might Jjappen once the scramble for the pieces began.

NATION-WIDE LABOR DISPUTE SETUP FORMED First Unit of Machinery to End Strikes to Be in Textile Industry. ORGANIZE UNDER NRA National and State Boards, Committees in Each Factory Planned. BY HI TH FINNEY Time* Sperlil Writer WASHINGTON Aug 3 The first nation-wide machinery ever created In thus country m peace times for settlement of labor disputes is being organized by NRA Us first unit will operate in the cotton textile industry. The administration hopes to establish similar units m all important industries as fast as their permanent codes of fair competition are approved If it is successful, labor will have a forum, on which it is itself represented. to which it may take all disputes that can not be settled within a factory or shop The administration looks forward to “preventing strikes and lockouts and other interruptions of employment and production" on a scale large enough to assure success of I its recovery plan. Johnson Bisclosi** Plan Administrator Hugh S Johnson disclosed the new plan in announcing a modification of the cotton textile code to provide a national in- ! dustrial relations board having | jurisdiction over all labor disputes within that industry. The national board will have three members, one selected by the cotton ' textile committee to represent employers, one selected by the labor advisory board to represent workers, and one appointed by the adminis- , trator. Under this national board, state boards will operatr. and these will have three members also, appointed bv the administrator from nomina- | lions made by the national industrial relations board, which, in turn, will receive nominations from em- . ployers and workers.
Committees in Each Factory Slate boards will help employers and workers organize committees for each factory on which each shall have equal representation, and disputes and grievances will be heard first by these factory committees. Where agreement is reached, it will be bindinc. unless the national industrial relations board objects. Where agreement is not reached, appeal will be taken to a state board, and finally to the national board. The code specifically recites that "creation of such industrial relations committees within individual factories shall be without prejudice to the freedom of association provided for in the industrial recovery act.” Cite Pennsylvania Trouble The new plan for mediation machinery was suggested to the recovery administration by the committee appointed to investigate the “stretchout* or speedup system in cotton textile mills. Jurisdiction of the industrial relation board, however, will extend beyond violations of this sort, to every labor controversy in the industry. Members of the "stretch out” committee, Robert W. Bruere, editor of the Survey; B. E Greer, president of Furman college, and Major George Barry, president of the printing pressmen's national union, may be named as members of tha first national industrial relations board, although this has not yet been decided Creation of a national industr.nl relations board for the coal industry in connection with its eode would provide a method of preventing m the future such struggles as are novz taking place in the Pennsylvania coal fields. Mediation Board I nde'Vaffrd Except for railway labor, no government machinerv exists f- • dealing with strikes and controversies at the present time, except 'he board of mediation in ihe labor department. and this board, in. Irquatcly staffed, functions only when It is called in by parties to a Dispute The industrial irlations board will have no connection with the government's participation on the planning and fair practice committee of the cotton textile Industry.
