on suspicion that they were spies Police returned Miss FreemanMitford's belongings with ception of camera films, which they | aeveloped. Miss Freeman-Mitford. daughter of Lord Redesdale of the British peerage, is a friend of Adolf Hitler and in consequence the incident | was not calculated to forward efforts at a friendly solution of the Czechoslovak minority problem. The beautiful, blond Miss Free-man-Mitford, Mr. Rueff, Philip Stranklin, young British writer and George Wollner, representative of German Minority Leader Konrad Henlein in Parliament, were arrested at Carlsbad when Czech officials found an autographed photograph of Herr Hitler in Miss Freeman-Mitford's baggage. At the time of the arrest Rueff was planning to return to Munich tomorrow to resume his | studies there and it was understood | that Miss Freeman-Mitford also | was going back to Germany after | a visit to the Sudeten German area of which Carlsbad is a principal city. Mr. Ruefl appealed to the American Legation here for aid as soon | as he was arrested.

GENEVA, June 2 (U. P,).—China |

today appealed to the world— through the League of Nations—for “urgent and effective measures to restrain Japan from continuing wholesale slaughter” in air raids on thickly populated civilian centers. The appeal was made because of | the recent Japanese bombings of | Canton which killed an estimated 1 2000 and wounded 5000. It urged the League to take effective measures to prevent, further bombings and was filed with the League Secretariat simultaneously with a similar appeal to Great Britain. Hoo Chi-tsai, Chinese permanent delegate to the League, alleged in a formal note that in the Canton bombings the Japanese “deliberately bombed and machine-gunned residential sections of the city far from any military objectives, killing and wounding several thousands of non- | combatants, including a great number of women and children.”

Japan Denies Charge

In London, Chinese Ambassador | Quo Tai-chi conferred with Foreign | Secretary Viscount Halifax who | earlier had received from the French | ambassador a request for joint protests against Spanish Rebels air raids on civilian populations. “Since beginning of the Japanese military aggression in China,” | bassador Quo said, “not a day has passed without the Japanese aircraft severely bombing Chinese open

civilian life.” The Japanese bureau here replied

that: 1. “Canton is far from being an open city and is on the contrary powerfully fortified and defended by 50 antiaireraft batteries.” 2. Canton was an important Chinese center for arms depots. 3. Japanese airmen “in returning {to put the civil population danger.” 4. “The loss of lives among the civil population in the course of the Japanese air raids for the most part have been caused probably by Chinese antiaircraft fire and bombs which were dropped in all places.”

BLACK CALLED

Yale Professor Compares New Justice's Style to Cardozo’s. |

NEW YORK, June 2 (U. P) The liberal magazine New Republic, in a review of Associate Justice | Hugo L. Black's first year in the! U. 8. Supreme Court, described him today as “a master of the jurist's art, whose dissenting opinions ft together into a coherent and articulate whole, in which there is not | a radical line.”

The article was written by Prof.

listed of action on his reorganiza- | School. : [of Mr, Justice Black, it was the cus-

He said that in writing tom to “exalt rumor and degrade fact.” Speaking of Mr. Justice | Black's legal writings, he said: “He sets down his opinions in simple, clear-cut language intelligiI may not have style as persons who af fect to be men of letters know it, if its essence lies in the ease with which verbal currency passes

ge Bill Issue

House-Senate Conference On Pay Measure Opens Today. (Editorial, Page 12) By HERBERT LITTLE Times Special Writer WASHINGTON, June 2 Pos« sibly the most important problem facing the Senate and House conferees on the wage-hour bill, who

meet late today for the first time, is whether to establish the eight«

| hour day by law in all interstate- | commerce industries.

The House bill as passed last week provides an eight-hour day for all such industries. The Senate bill, passed last July, limits only the total hours per week. The House accepted the eighte hour-day proposal without debate, and all Legislators seemed agreed that it was a desirable goal. In practice, however, according to some labor experts, this provision is likely to cause more difficulty than any other phase of the wage« hour legislation. They believe it is likely to be dropped by the con- | ferees, Most industries, especially in dee pression periods, work most of their production employees fewer than eight hours a day, but there are many industries in which such a requirement would disrupt schedules drastically | The provision would particularly affect maintenance men, some of | whom are on duty 10 to 12 hours a (day for emergency calls to repair breakdowns. The general rule for watchmen, even in the most ade vanced factories, is 10 to 14 hours’ work An eight-hour day, coupled with the 44-hour work week provided in the House bill, would mean a 5'4« day week for most plants. This might cause hardship to seasonal industries at their peaks Advocates of the eight-hour-day limitation point out that various newspapers with a round-the-clock operation have accommodated themselves to a five-day week by staggering their working schedules. Most industrial plants operate on fixed schedules wnich could be even more easily adjusted to the shorter

| work week if necessary, it is argued.

The proposed hours limitation

| would affect 2500000 persons—three

times as many as the projected wage minimums and probably would cause more industrial adjustments than the wages Both wage and hour limits will cover only so-called interstate-com-merce industries, excluding local operations such as the service trades, retail stores, laundries, ote, in which the lowest standards pre=
