tions, whom Mr. Taft hopes to bring together tomorrow. “We met with the commission to continue our conversations on technical details not completed yesterday,” Mr. Lewis said. “There is no immediate necessity of our presence here. It is|assumed -that the board will continue to offer its good offices to settle the strike. We are subject to the call of the commission.” Mr. Purnell protested Governor Davey’s action “requiring” [that the Youngstown Sheet & Tube Co. “keep its plants closed when its employees want to go to work and are assured by the local autho ties they will be protected.”
Petition Is Cited
“Your order is being obeyed by this company and its-emplayees, but 900 employees have petitioned us to open the plants. Every day these workers are deprived of their right to work inflicts a cruel loss| on them and their families,” he told the Governor. Mr. Purnell charged that trouble in Youngstown does not grow out of any conflict but is solely due to a breakdown of law enforcement in the face of threatened violence.” With approval of President Roosevelt and upon’ the urgent appeal of both Mr. Lewis and Mr. Taff, the State Militia was dispatched to the Youngstown and Warren areas * to maintain the status quo and pre vent disorders. Governor Davey of Ohio acted swiftly upon being advised of collapse of the Board's efforts to bring union leaders and steel company executives together in a conference to end the strike in time to prevent danger of rioting at the scheduled reopening of the Mahoning Vailey
mills at 7 a. m. He ordered the mills |
to remain closed and sent 4300 troops to enforce the order. : Davey said he had consulted by telephone with the President, whom he said, considered the proclamation of military rule — a modified form of martial law—a “very fair and proper procedure.”

Union Sign Pacts
The Fulton and National Hosiery Companies and the American Federation of Hosiery Workers have signed union agreements, it was learned today. Both union and company officials said the contracts are similar to one signed two weeks ago with the Real Silk Hosiery Co. The union statement said the contract provides for wages and hours regulation, the checkoff system, seniority rights and arbitration of disputes. A company official, however, said it provides only-for the checkoff and for bargaining ‘with the union, a C. 1. O. affiliate. The union is to celebrate signing of the contract at an outing at Riverside Park ‘on July 31.

By United Press PARIS, June 22.—Camille Chautemps, -Radical Socialist, virtually was assured of being able to form a Popular Front Government in succession to that of Leon Blum, Socialist, today when the Socialist National Council voted to support such a government.

a case where only a fist is used.
They also claimed that premeditated malice as charged in the indictment could not be valid where no deadly weapon was used.

FRAUD BY PHONE IS CHARGED IN MORLEY'S TRIAL
Four Witnesses Testify to
Receiving Calls Urging Investment.
Charges - of stock fraud perpetrated by long distance telephone : calls and of the use of fictitious names were made today by Federal Court witnesses in the “bucket shop” trial of C. J. Morley, former Colorado Governor, and four others. Mr. Morley, William J. Stevenson, Houston, Tex.; Olaf T. Anderson, Chicago; Benson N. Chase, Evansville, and Edward Ward, Evansville, all are charged with using the mails to defraud in connection with the operation of an allegedly illegal brokerage firm here and in Evansville,
Four. of today’s witnesses testified they had received long distance telephone calls, usually from a person who gave his name as “Mr. Spencer,55 and had been asked if they wanted to place their investments with a “sound firm backed by C. J. Morley’s millions.”
Claim Many Names Used
The witnesses said they made an installment payment, but did not receive any stock. Other names used in these telephone conversations were “Brown,” “Morrison” and “Ward,” witnesses said. The Government contends all but the last were fictitious. Three times Defense Attorney william Bryans sought to halt the flow of Government witnesses’ testimony. Judge Robert Baltzell overruled his objections to the introduction of letters and checks of the alleged “victims” into the record, and delayed ruling on the admissibility of telephqne conversations, but allowed such testimony to be heard pending his decision. Edwin Rittenhouse, Liberty Mills, Ind.: T. V. Williams, Equality, Ill.;' Dr. M. B. Wood, PrincetonInd., and H. H Gaylor, Greens Fork, Ind. were the first to’ take the stand today. Miss Virginia Dreyer, typist in the Indianapolis office, said she was ordered to sign correspondence with the ‘initials “C. M. B.,” but she did not know whose signature it was supposed to be. The Evansville typist, Miss Mary Louise Bookstage, said that Chase was in charge there. :
Company officials told him that’
his stock was not delivered because of a mail mishap, Dr. W. H. Puryear, Morganfield, Ky., testified. He said he had paid in more than $500. C. G. Stienbicker, Anderson manufacturer, testified that after he paid $100 on stock said to be valued at $290, it was sold by the company at a loss without his direction. More Government witnesses were to be called this afternoon. Ten persons testified yesterday.
Claims Stock Not Delivered
Court adjourned at 5 p. m. yesterday during the examination of the 10th witness, H. S. Kelly, Terre Haute truck firm operator who described how he allegedly was defrauded in a stock sale transaction following a telephone conversation with the company in March, 1934. Mr. Kelly said that he paid down $200 for 100 shares of Armour & Co. stock valued at $520 and that although he attempted to pay the balance and obtain the stock delivery was not made. Mr. Bryans asked the witness why he had not investigated the transaction when he had only negotiated the purchase by phone with someone he had never seen or heard of before. “Oh, I was just ripe for picking and they got me at the right time,” was the answer,

to train unskilled workers to do skilled jobs, he suggested. “For instance,” he said, “a man who sells derricks might see to it that enough men are trained to operate them so that he can sell a few.” In his address, Mr. Acheson said: “Practice has proved that enlightened minorities lead in social progress and. the majority follows. “It is minorities that take the first forward steps in social reforms. This is so uniformly true, particularly under a democratic. form of government, that we may call it a law of social progress.” The Government should not undertake social reforms on a national scale, he said, until they first have been tested on a limited scale. “Representative government, because it depends on majority support, must always lag behind enlightened minorities,” he continued. “It is therefore inherently incapable of leading, but instead must follow public opinion.”
Senator Pepper Speaks
U. S. Senator Claude Pepper, Florida, speaking: last night in Cadle Tabernacle, said America’s future will be determined by intelligent, fearless citizenship. “If you don’t like your nation’s course, give all the energies of an alert and determined mind to the alteration of ‘that course to the one you approve,” he said. “But don’t thrust yourself in the way of all progress because you would not have chosen a way others happen temporarily to employ. There is not a serious problem now agitating this nation which the people cannot readily solve.” Centralization of. power, interference with private rights and denial of accepted liberties to help the United States reach the “Promised

Land” Pepper. He declared a “beneficient providence gave us sanctuary under the folds of a great Constitution, which has brought us safely through fratricidal strife and civil war.” The Southern Senator likened present-day Americans to the children of Israel when they feared to venture into the*Promised Land, but added that an intelligent citizenship will not let Americans wander in a wilderness of suffering and privation. “If we listen to the counsel of many of our fellow citizens and many who would be our ndtional leaders,” he said, “we will be told that the struggle to achieve the Promised Land is greater than we are capable of. “They demonstrate to us that it will take . . . experimentation upon experimentation, much of which, after arduous trial, will have to be discarded; much bad will have ta be undone and many times the job will have to be done over again.” “A new quality of intelligence will have to come into the public service,” Senator Pepper continued. “All humanitarian agencies of the nation will have to be mobilized.”

which he turned down, deciding to send agents first to the Bahamas to investigate the insurance company, Senator La Follette (P. Wis.), who had criticized the bureau for delaying investigation of the Dwight case, interrupted to say: “I guess then we can thank Mr. Hughes for disclosing this scheme rather than the revenue bureau.” Detailed explanation of the coms plicated methods purportedly used to avoid payment -of Federal tax levies followed a sharp committee interchange in which Rep. Treadway (R. Mass.) accused the Treaseury of “trying to mislead the pub lic” and in turn was accused of “trying to get his name in the papers.”
Plan New Legislation
In telling the committee of the tax law loopholes which should be remedied at this session, Treasury officials revealed they will recom-= mend legislation along the line of that in Great Britain under which ‘taxpayers are required to reveal holdings in all companies and then are taxed on the basis of those holdings. The name of Dwight was placed in the record by Mason B. Leming,
sel of the Internal Revenue Bureau,
the law partner of the son of the Chief Justice, but later explained that he understood the partnership recently was dissolved. Previously, Leming submitted the nanie of Walter C. Baber, whom he described as a British citizen living in New York. Baber. he said, “organized in his own interests in Nassau, Bahamas, the Standard Life Insurance Co., Ltd.” This. he said, occurred 1931. Previously in his testimony, Lems< ing had stated that “efforts to ob= tain interest deductions on fictitious loans is a vice of the whole (tax) system.” Criticizes Treadway
Doughton criticized Treadway for suggesting that the Treasury or Magill “mislead anyone.’ Treadway said he had no intene tion of reflecting on Magill. “I think we understand each other even if others don't,” Treadway told | Magill, and the latter resumed his estimony. espite the fact more than 100 erican-owned corporations have fy set up in the Bahamas there is really no way to find out how much revenue has been lost,” Magill said. “I think we might be able through legislation to compel submission of much |information.” Magill said the foreign insurance company method “so|far has been used by relatively few people, but it should be stopped before It becomes widespread.”
Called Vice of System
Leming said that efforts to obtain interest deductions “on fictitious loans is a vice of the whole system.” “The foreign insurance company method is but one,” he said. Leming detailed the organization of the Standard Life Insurance Co.
