tion board set up by the Council last spring. Council members today checked all projects where union men were working to see that none was on the job.
Kern Sees Other Strikes
Craftsmen whose 19 unions are members of the Building Trades Council include: Bricklayers, as-
bestos workers, cement finishers, electrical | workers, elevator constructors,| hod carriers, engineers, iron workers, lathers, painters, plasterers, plumbers, sheet metal workers, steamfitters, teamsters and chauffeurs, stone cutters and roofers. Work on the Federal Building annex, the| International Harvester Co. plant |and the Irvington school, was halted yesterday and workmen did not report for duty today. . Charles Kern, member of the local Council's arbitration board whose jurisdiction the Carpenters’ Union has refused to recognize, termed the local tieup a “strike to end strikes.” He said similar arbitration boards have been set up in every other large city to settle jurisdictional disputes and, if the local board is not allowed to operate, similar strikes probably will result in other localities. Mr. Jungclaus estimated that the loss to the workmen is about $15,000 a day and that contractors’ losses are “very large.” Carl Vestal, Council president, said the situation will remain the same until the Carpenters’ Union makes a move.
Termed ‘Showdown’
Mr. Meadows said:“We’re nof going to make the next move. It’s not up to us. We didn’t start anything and we didn't take anybody off the jobs.” Mr. Vestal termed the situation a “showdown which we'll see through to the finish.” The Council also was to consider a request by Otto Sand, construction engineer for the Federal Building annex job, that steamfitiers and painters be allowed to complete the heating plant installment in the postoffice mailing room and the decorating of Judge Robert C. Baltzell’s court room.

from the Canal Zone. It was believed the war planes and any other cargo affected by the President's | ban, would be jettisoned at San Pedro before the vessel is permitted to proceed. : Any foreign vessel could load the planes there and carry them on to their destination if she is able to run the Japanese Naval blockade. The action, taken late yesterday following a Cabinet meeting and lengthy conferences with Secretary of State Hull and Maritime Commission Chairman Joseph A. Kennedy, was calculated to withdraw this country one step farther from possible enbroilment in the SinoJapanese undeclared war. It was believed that the order would greatly reduce the possibilities of collision between this country and Japan over “freedom of’the seas” for American ships in the Far East. It made effective, so far as American ships are concerned, Japan’s naval blockade of the Chinese coast. Administration officials appeared inclined to let pass unanswered the official reactions in Japan and China to the President’s action. Officials in Japan were reported “well pleased.” Chinese leaders, aghast at President Roosevelt's ‘restrictions on arms shipments from the United States to the Far East, asserted today in Shanghai that its effect was a direct aid to Japan.
What to Do With
Cargo Is Problem
LOS ANGELES, Sept. 15 (U. P.). —The Government-owned freighter Wichita, due to dock at Los Angeles harbor at 6 p. m. today, en route to the Orient with war material, will furnish the first problem under President Roosevelt’s order against Government-owned ships carrying munitions to the Far East. Panama Pacific Lines, acting as agents of the Wichita, which is operated for the Government by the
Roosevelt Steamship Co. of | New York, said that instructions as to what was to be done with her f‘contraband” must come from operators in the East.

Hopes Some Action
Koo indicated that he hoped, even if penalties proved impossible, to get the league to denounce Japanese aggression, repudiate Japan's blockade of the China coast, which he called “the. thin edge of the wedge against freedom of the seas,” and condemn the alleged deliberate bombing of noncombatants by Japanese war planes. The Spanish Loyalist Government has opened negotiations with the United States for settlement of $30,000,000 in American private credits in Spain, the Spanish, ydelegation said today. Premier Juan Negrin has authorized negotiations involving 13 claims of United States citizens and companies concerning payment of credits established in Spain before the outbreak of the revolution in July, 1936.
U. S. Joins in New Shanghai Protest
SHANGHAI, Sept. 15 (U. P.).— Foreign naval commanders again made strong representations to Japanese and Chinese leaders today “requesting and urging steps” to prevent warplanes from flying over or near the International Settlement and the French concession. They also asked that the armies direct their antiaircraft fire in such a way so as to “avoid further killings ‘of innocent noncombatants.”
Italy Boycott Feared of
Nonintervention Body ROME, Sept. 15.—Italy may boycott the international committee on nonintervention in the Spanish Civil War unless the Mediterranean
patrol is altered to suit her, it was understood today. The atmosphere here was nervous. The action of the Nyon conference powers in signing their agreement to patrol the Mediterranean—regarded here as Italy’s sea—without even awaiting Italy’s reply to an invitation to participate caused both surprise and disappointment. Italy’s reply, on the surface a rejection of the invitation, was interpreted as actually approximating a counter-invitation to the powers to give Italy an equal share on a patrol work with Britain and France. It was evident that the Government believed that today and tomorrow France and Britain might seek to give private assurances that the submarine patrol would be rearranged to suit Italy.
DEBATE KLAN ISSUE IN MAYORALTY RACE
NEW YORK, Sept. 15 (U. P.).— Mayoralty candidates in one of New York City's most confusing pri‘maries wind up their campaigns today, still debating whether the Ku Klux Klan was an issue. Senator Copeland, who seeks both the Republican and Democratic nominations as the Tammany Hall candidate, introduced the Xlan issue following publication of a newspaper “expose” alleging that

were too often lost to the church because the parental influence for good was not strong enough. He criticized pastors for having quit calling on members and for “hanging out a sign and waiting, like a lawyer, for needy people to call.” City churches have ceased to be self-supporting in man power, Dr. Hutchinson said, maintaining themselves “not by conversions but by
transfers from rural churches, which
alone possess revival spirit.” Hear Senator Holmes
In separate session at the New Jersey Street Church today, laymen heard an address by former State Senator C. Oliver Holmes of Gary, stressing the part of the layman in the church. At this afternoon’s business session, the laymen were scheduled to re-elect for three-year terms the present list of officers, T. Morton McDonald, Princeton, president; Ray D. Everson, Acton, vice president, and R. M, Kibler, Farmersburg, secretary-treasurer, Before Bishop McConnell’s atrival, the ministers held ‘a memorial service for pastors who have died during the year. Then they admitted to full conference membership Russell Hall, Omer Fletcher, Loren N. Campbell, Henry A. Meyer, Charles R. McCarthy, Clyde V. Onyett, Ralph W. Pritchard, Elmer L. Harvey and Theron Castleman, graduates of the conference course of study of Methodist theological seminaries. Get Trial Membership
Admitted to trial membership by conference vote were Maurice Kessler, Lowell F. Turner, Robert DeLong, Stanley F. Mahan, Loral W. Pancake, Robert: S. Chafee, David M. Shepherd and Bernard J. Renner. Motions for the appointment of a commission to study the rural church and another to study merger of the three Methodist conferences in Indiana into one or two were approved by the conference. The ministers were to participate this afternoon in a service conducted by the women’s missionary societies of the church, at which Dr. David Jones, president of Bennett College
for Women, Greensboro, N. C.,, was|
to speak. At tonight’s evangelistic service, beginning at 7:15, the Broadway Methodist Church choir, directed by Willard E. Beck, and Mrs. John English, Broadway organist, are to provide the music. The address, ‘Can the Modern Church Have a Revival?” is to be given by Dr. Hutchinson.
FIRE RAZES WARSAW PLANT.
WARSAW, Sept. 15 (U. P.).—Fire of ‘undetermined origin destroyed the main plant of the Gatke Asbestos Co., with damage estimated at close to $150, 000. Ninety men were thrown out of employment by the blaze.

regular investigation of the candidate’s fitness. It was pointed out the President preferred to avoid hasty action, wanting to await Justice Black's return rather than trying to get his side of the case from him while he is far removed from the scene. By the time Justice Black returns for the October term of the fourt, developments may have changed the situation and made its solution simpler from the Adminstration’s viewpoint. Will Keep Issue Alive
Several Congressional opponents of Mr. Roosevelt's defeated Supreme Court enlargement program indicated that they would fight vigorously any effort to let the question of Justice Black’s relationship with the Klan die out before the facts are definitely determined. Meanwhile the Pittsburgh PostGazette published the third of a series of stories copyrighted by the North American Newspaper Alliance, Inc, which purports to reveal
DELAY SEEN IN LOANS
FOR FARM PURCHASE |
_ Indiana tenant farmers intending to ask for loans to buy land under the Bankhead-Jones Farm Tenancy Act probably will have to wait several weeks, R. C. Smith, Farm Security Administration regional director here, said today. He said allotments have not been made yet to the various regions. Since only 10,000,000 dollars was appropriated for the entire nation for the year ending June 30, 1938, only a few tenant farmers can hope to purchase land during the next nine months, Mr. Smith explained.
