Cardinal Writes Letter
These were contributing factors: 1. A letter which Cardinal Van Roman Catholic Archbishop of Malines, published, urging sup-
| port of the Government.
2. Unpopularity, in Brussels at least, of the union of the Rexists and the! Flemish Nationalists; solid support | by Catholics, Socialists, Liberals| and some support by the Communists of ¥an Zeeland as antiFascist.
3. Fear that a vote for Degrelle |
would be a vote for an eventual dictatorship. The unpopularity here of the Rexist-Flemish accord is due to the Flemish aspiration for union of Belgian Flanders with Holland. The result of the election is that the Rexists lose one of its 21 seats in the Chamber of Deputies whose total membership is 202.

Singing Mouse Escapes In Studio; Too Winded To Sing.
Friends of the Indianapolis singing mouse were consoling him today for what they supposed was an attack of microphone fright yesterday when he gave an indifferent performance over a nation-wide NBC hookup from Chicago. But it wasn’t fright that reduced his volume and allowed mice from Bloomington, Ill, and irom Seattle, Wash., to capture first and second prizes. It was mischief that put him out of the running. Just before he was scheduled to go on, he escaped from his owners, Mr. and Mrs. George Hargis, 907 Belle Vieu Place,
i and: scurried through the spacious
Merchandise Mart studios. Owners and studio staff took after him and for several : moments it was nip and tuck. He was caught a split second before he was scheduled to go on. | And he was just plain out of breath. That's why it came out the way it did.

Lewis’ Committee for Industrial Organization, was still explosive. Authorities believed that the chance of another outbreak was lessened, however, by the fact that one of the warring groups had to return to work today and would not have another chance to mobilize its full force before the next week-end holiday. : Ted Schasteen, Treece, Kas., president of the local C. I.. O. union, said “this is just a beginning. We'll have another meeting next Sunday and it will be a meeting.” More than 100 men were mauled and clubbed during yesterday's fighting, which extended from town to town in this hilly mining country where the states of Kansas, Oklahoma and Missouri adjoin, Run Into Ambush

Members of the International Mine, Mill and Smelter Workers’ Union, a C. I. O. affiliate, have been on strike since May 8, 1935. C. I. O. spokesmen charge that the Tri-State organization is a company union. Peace was restored at the mines under martial law during the 1935 strike. About 8000 miners returned to work in the independent union, while about 500 international members remained on strike. Sheriff Simkin said four C. I. O. organizers had been arrested. TriState union leaders have protested that the C. I. O. union would involve the miners in another costly strike.

John Noble, president of the Toe ronto Trades Council, told the strikers that “we will join with you and place our entire resources at your command.” |
“This is not a fight against General Motors,” he said. “It is a fight against Premier Hepburn and his refusal to accept the delegated representatives of General Motors eme= ployees.” !
