BULLETIN BUDAPEST, Hungary, Nov. 15 (U. P.).—Premier Imredy’s ‘Cabinet resigned today in preparation for reorganization along more nationalistic lines. He was expected to form a new Cabinet at once.

BERLIN, Nov. 15 (U. P.) —Fifty thousand Jews have been arrested throughout the Reich in the last few days, reliable sources estimated foday. Of that number, 7000 to 8000 were estimated to have been seized in Berlin. : Many of those arrested are influential or wealthy Jews held as hostages. 3 As Hugh Wilson, United States Ambassador, prepared to leave for Paris tomorrow night on his way to Washington, the press © sternly warned ‘America that agitation against Naziism would be reflected in further ill-treatment of Jews here, Ambassador Wilson called on Foreign Minister Joachim von Ribbentrop and said farewell during the afternoon,

“Thousand Eyes for gn Eye” The newspaper Schwarze Korps,

. organ of the. Elite SS Guards, de-

clared that “we shall use Jewish hostages systemafically no matter how shocking some people may find it.” The paper went on to declare that using the Jewish principle of “an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth” the Nazis will take a thou-

-'sand eyes and a thousand teeth for

every German eye or tooth. - Ghetto-like, measures were being formulated in Nazi Coe raion: bureaus. Panic-stricken Jews in increasing numbers besieged the American ant other foreign consulates. Despite repercussions on the German Bourse it was indicated’ there would be no recession in the drive which has swept the Jews from the financial, business and cultural life of Germany.

News Suppressed

Although the German press has suppressed all news of the indignation abroad, the afternoon newspaper Zwolfuhrblatt took cognizance of it today in an attack on “Washington.” “Apostles of humanitarianism and

_the purposeful politicians of Wash- - “ington—how could they be other-

wise—are panicstricken over the clean division of Germans and Jews effected in Germany,” the newspaper said. > _ “They hammer and curse with such effect that it soon might be too much for us. This Washington should let itself be told! Or has one failed «correctly to understand Dr. Goebbel’'s words that any new campaign will be a bad service to. the Jews of Germany? “If so, then it should be repeated as a warning which should not be taken lightly, because it is meant damn (sic) Seriously.” Zwolfuhrblatt said. : ; The Vienna Voelkische Beobachier forecast the rise of anti-Semitism in

‘the United States.

Hostage Arrests Continue

The campaign of Jew “hostages” arrests continued. Fritz Warburg, Hamburg banker and brother of the late Felix Warburg and Paul Moritz Warburg, American financiers, was -reported to have been taken into custody. Jews did not expect decrees aimed at cultural limitations to end with their banishment from German schools and universities. More decrees along this line were expected as soon as the Nazis found new opportunities fo detach Jewish and German econgmic and cultural life by the establishment of ghettos. New suicides were reported as Jews tried to raise nearly 500 million dollars to pay a fine levied on Jews as a whole and repair damage done to Jewish property |by rioters.

Financial Mptive Seen

Behind the announced Nazi motive- for the drive—the killing of a minor German official of the Embassy in Paris—some financial circles saw an active Nazi economic situation as the real cause. Germany faces a huge and rapidly mounting deficit, it was said. New

* funds were needed for Field Mar-

shal Hermann Wilhelm Goering’s Four-Year Plan of economic selfsufficiency, which had placed a heavy drain on the nation. The Reich already had floated this (Continued on Page Three)

“<Q WASHINGTON, Nov. 15 (U.P.).— Secretary of State Hull indicated today that American Ambassador

main indefinitely in this country,

1 Secretary Hull's instructions to

Mr. Wilson to return home for “report and consultation” generally were viewed as a diplomatic blow at

Germany. Secretary Hull said today that no

plans have been made as to when Mr. Wilson will return to his Berlin post. Observers who have watched Secretary Hull's steadily mounting dislike of the German Government because of its foreign and domestic policies believed that behind his move were two major objectives: 1. An expression of displeasure by this Government which the German Government could not fail to understand regarding its policies, particularly those relating to Jews and other political, racial and religious minorities: = ¢ ‘2. Strengthening the State Department. staff during the all-im-portant Pan-American Conference at, Lima, Peru, next month at which every effort will be made by United States delegates to strengthen the mutually defensive bonds of American nations. Both Secretary Hull and Assistant Secretary Adolf Berle are scheduled to attend, leaving the State Department critically -shorthanded of top-ranking, policy-mak-ing officials. - :

Adviser for Welle

It was believed that Mr. Wilson's presence in the State Department, at this critical time, would strengthen this Government's position in deciding matters ‘affecting - foreign policy. A veteran of the diplomatic service, with long years of experience in Europe during the postwar years before he was appointed Assistant Secretary of State in 1937, Mr. Wilson -has been in Germany for nearly a year. Ambassador Wilson is regarded as more intimately familiar with German plans, policies and methods than any other American diplomat. It is believed that he can advise President Roosevelt and Undersecretary of State Sumner Welles, who will be acting Secretary during Secretary Hull's absence, expertly upon the influence moves at Lima probably will have upon American relations with Europe, particularly with Germany. ; State Department officials denied that Mr, Wilson’s recall for consulfation and report was the first step toward severance of diplomatic relations with Germany.

Move Credited to Hull

Another principal assistant to Mr. Welles will be Assistant Secretary of State George S. Messersmith, veteran foreign service officer with long years of service in Germany and Central Europe, who is a critic of Nazi Government policies. Secretary Hull himself has never completely cloaked his dislike for Herr Hitler and Nazi policies under the diplomatic courtesies required of his office. The abrupt move in recalling Mr. Wilson to Washington was attributed by State Department officials directly to Secretary Hull's mounting personal horror of German Government persecution of helpless minorities.

LABOR UNION URGES ROOSEVELT PROTEST

The Indianapolis Industrial Union Council, a C: I. O. organizatjon, today urged President Roosevelt to “take vigorous action” in protest of “desecration of church property, disruption of church services and suppression of religious liberty in Germany.” In a resolution adopted last night, the Council “recognizes this as an attack not only on the Jews but on religion and democracy as well as on organized labor of any kind.”

WPA PHASE OF CITY TAX ARGUED

Citizens Urge Open Hearing On Projects Before 0. K. Is Given.

Proposals to require public hear-

cussed today during a State Tax Board review of the Civil City budget. =

Marion County Tax Adjustment Board, requires a levy of $1.30 on each $100 of assessed property, an increase of 5 cents over the current levy. Approximately - $175,000 now is provided in the 1939 budget to enable the City to provide necessary funds to sponsor WPA projects. Of this total, $76,336 is in the Works Board budget.

Two Urgq” Hearings Asserting that there has been no declaration by City officials as to what projects this money would be

used for, Walter T. Horn, Indiana Taxpayers’ Association representative, and C. R. Behjamin, State Tax Board member, suggested that public hearings be held by City Council before requests are made for Federal projects. Mz. Horn said this would give taxpayers an opportunity to study advisability of proposed projects. In its second day of review of tax rates and budgets in Marion County, the State Tax Board made an analysis of proposed 1939 expenditures by individual City . departments. : Board members indicated ‘hey may ask the County Tax Adjustment Board members to explain some of the cuts made in the City budget. The Marion County departmental and welfare budgets and township budgets were reviewed yesterday. -

The, Tax Board this afternoon was to review the School City’s 94-

PITTSBURGH, Nov. 12 (U. P.).— The Committee for Industrial Organization, in ja boisterous session, today served notice on President Roosevelt and the American Federation of Labor tht it wants labor minity but will not sacrifice the fundamental principle of industrial unionism to attain this goal. The action came on acceptance by the C. I. ‘O.’s first *constitutional convention of a report by the organization's “peacemaking” group in which the A. F. of L. representatives were blamed for collapse of previous truce conversations, and a supplemental report by the Committee on Officers Reports headed by ‘Homer Martin, president of- the United Automobile Workers. The vote was unanimous, There

C. 1. O. Refuses to Yield On Industrial Unionism

stated emphatically that “there can be no compromise’ with fundamental purposes and aims of the C. I. O. and stated this to be the future policy of the C. I. O. toward the controversy. > The C. I. O. accepts the goal of unity in the labor movement and declares that any program for the attainment of such goal must embrace as an essential prelude these fundamental purposes (unionization of mass production industries and protection of the rights and interests of all C. I, O. members and affiliates.) . The convention acted less than 24 hours after Mr. Roosevelt's appeal to the delegates that the door to peace be kept open had been greeted by a noisy four-minute demon-

stration of acclaim. The Chief Ex-

BANKER SAYS NLRB RETARDS RECOVERY

A. B. A. Head Warns ~ Of Fascist Trend.

HOUSTON, Tex., Nov. 15 (U. P.). —Orval W. Adams of Salt Lake City, president of the American Bankers’ Association, attacked the Roosevelt Administration today and charged that the NLRB has prevented recovery by binding and gagging industry. « Mr. Adams, addressing the opening session of the bankers’ 64th annual convention, aserted that the NLRB was the New Deal's “pet” and was the “tool of radical labor leaders.” He denounced vote-buying, diversion of Social Security funds, “reckless” public spending, coercion of relief workers, subsidized power projects, “Federal greed,” and chain banking. “We are drifting with ever-in-creasing speed into Governmentplanned economy,” he told 3000 bankers. 2 “The inevitable result of such planned economy is ultimate dictatorship! This is a tendency which, if not checked, will move strongly into some form of national socialism or fascism.”

POLITICS DENIED - IN CITY LAYOFFS

Mayor Boetcher denied today that discharges and time and pay reductions in City departments had any “political sighificance.” . It was disclosed yesterday by the Mayor that more than 100 persons had been discharged and that 175 persons in the Street Department alone had been placed on a parttime basis since the election. “The discharges and time and pay reductions are routine matters to keep the departments within their yearly budgets,” the Mayor said.

LEGION ROLLS ARE UP 90,000

Committee Head Says Ludlow Bill Is Headed For Defeat.

BULLETIN ; An advanee membership. of nearly 90,000 more than the previous ‘high was reported today in the annual telegraphic roll call of the American Legion, feature of today’s meeting here of department commanders and adjutants. The . advance membership this year was 531,823 as compared to 443,350 last year and 448,559 in 1936, the previous high.

(Photos, Page 10)

The next Congress will spend more on national defense. than the American Legion ever suggested, John Thomas Taylor, Legion national legislation committee director, predicted today. ‘Mr. Taylor, in an interview, also forecast that the next Congress

again will turn down the Ludlow war referendum bill, which is to be reintroduced, and that it will pass the Legion-sponsored bill for conscription of wealth as well as men in time of war. The committee director, here to

Legion departmental commanders and adjutants, outlined the Legion's legislative programs at the session yesterday afternoon. : Mr. Taylor, who lives in Washington and directs the Legion's -1obby, said that while the Legion will continue to work for national defense expenditures now sponsored by the Administration, it also will turn its attention more to its other activities, including legislative aid for veterans’ widows. - :

‘More Bonus Bills’

Mr. Taylor said ‘there is no legislation left on the Legion's “future books” that will cost large sums of money. “All the big items are.taken care of,” he said. “I believe the Congress is of the opinion that it has done, once and for all, with the bonus, but there will be bonus bills introduced, ‘as there are at every Congress.” 3 He told the commanders ‘there now are 197 Legion convention resolutions awaiting Congressional action. : Some of these are technical amendments to ‘Legion legislation previously passed. One resolution adopted at the Los Angeles convention this year urges a ban upon aliens taking fish from Alaskan waters commercially, and obviously is aimed at the Japanese, he said. -

Bridges Deportation Asked

Also on ‘the books for immediate attention is the resolution passed this year asking the immediate deportation of “Harry Bridges (C. I O. West Coast leader) and all other undesirable aliens,” which action, the convention said, was ‘held up by the Labor Department pending a decision of the Supreme Court.” Mr. Taylor reported his commit~ tee already has talked with the State Department about a Los Angeles convention : resolution = that would make personal data, including occupation, of German citizens in the United States matters of public record. - Also ready for action the Congress is a resolution as that the World War veteran quota in CCC (Continued on Page Three)

INQUIRIES ARE PUSHED

G. 0. P. Claims Tucker Is In; Legislative Recount May Be Asked.

The Indiana post-election battle, in which defeated candidates for State offices have announced their intentions of contesting the right of apparent winners to take office, neared a climax today as Democrats and Republicans awaited an offi-

cial canvass of the Nov. 8 vote by the Secretary of State. Today’s developments were: An unofficial compilation of certified returns from 82. counties, as tabulated by election commissioners in reports to the Secretary of State and the Governor, showed all Democratic State candidates leading. The Secretary of State’s compilation for 82 counties gave:

U. S. SENATOR

Frederick VanNuys (D) ... 698,693 Raymond E. Willis (R) .... 685276

SECRETARY OF STATE

Edward D. Koenemann (D). 686,221 James M. Tucker (R) +... 679,301 Republican leaders contended that the returns from the 10 counties not tabulated would cut the margin of Democratic candidates and would give James M. Tucker, G. O. P. nominee for Secretary of State, the lead over Edward D. Koennemann, his Democratic opponent. The Democratic undfficial tabulation, completed last night, showed that Mr. Tucker defeated Mr. Koenemann by 989. votes, but listed Democrats as winners for all other State offices by pluralities ranging from 5000 to 11,069 votes. Floyd I. McMurray, according to this tabulation, piled up the 11,069vote advantage over Norman J. Lasher, his Republican opopnent for Superintendent of Public Instruction. : : Unofficial tabulations of the 10

{counties which have not" reported

certified returns indicated that they went Rpublican. The counties are DeKalb, Delaware, Fayette, Fountain, -Grant, Huntinggton, Madsion, Marshall Ripley and Wabash. Democrats contended that all of their candidates for Appellate Court had been. elected on the basis of their own tabulations. Republicans previously had claimed the election of Edgar Durre, Evansville, to the Appellate Court, first division, and of Dan Flanagan, Ft. Wayne, from the second division.

May Seek House Recount

Democratic headquarters announced it may seek a recount -of the vote for legislative candidates in Knox and La Porte Counties, where the vote was close, in an effort to win a majority of House seats. Unofficial returns gave Republicans 51 seats and Democrats 49. In La Porte County, the unofficial count showed that Martin T. Kreuger, Democrat, was defeated by Walter F. Danielson, Republican, by only 48 votes. In Knox County, according to unofficial tabulations, the Democratic candidate, Charles Thompson, was edged out by Omer Free, his Republican rival, by 186 votes. Republican State headquarters were being dismantled : today, but the G. O. P. State Committee gave no signs of slowing up the pace it set in the post-election contest in demanding recounts in six counties for its defeated State candidates.

$2000 Contributed

Contributions to the G. O. P. recount fund today reached $2000 and at least another $1000 was expected to be reported to Felix McWhirter, Republican State Treasurer, by tonight. Robert D. Armstrong, counsel for defeated G. O. P. candidates asking a recount, said he is seeking a legal pathway to ‘contest election returns in six Indiana counties. County chairmen in Lake, Marion, Sullivan, Vanderburgh, Vermillion and Vigo Counties, where vote returns will be contested, were reported collecting hundreds of «ffidavits citing instances of alleged election irregularities.

Cummings Listed as First To Retire if Roosevelt Makes Changes.

(Photos, Page Three)

WASHINGTON, Nov. 15 (U. P.). —A high Administration official told, the United Press today that President Roosevelt may announce a change in his Cabinet before leaving for Warm Springs, Ga., Sunday. The post at issue, he said, was that of Attorney General, now held by Homer S. Cummings. It was expected that his successor wdéuld be ‘Solicitor General Robert, H. Jackson. The United Press informant, ong of the President’s closest advisers who asked that his name not be used,. said that a shakeup in the Cabinet was impending. However, only the one change is contemplated

He emphasized that reports of Works Progress Administrator Hopkins replacing ‘ Secretary of Commerce: Roper were “premature.” He declined to add to that statement. Rumored for Months For several months there have been recurring rumors that changes in. the Cabinet were imminent. Since the general elections last week, there have been unconfirmed. reports not only of Commerce and Justice Department changes, but also of new Secretaries. of Labor and of the Navy. . The resignation of Mr. Cummings would not be’ unexpected. It has been known for some time that he wished to return to private law practice in Stamford, Connj : Likewise, the appointment of Mr. Jackson as his successor would not surprise official Washington. For more than a year he has been one of the New Deal proteges. Mr. Jackson was appointed assistant Attorney General in 1936. He had been general counsel for the Bureau of Internal Revenue since 1934. He was made Solicitor General in-January, 1938, when Stanley F. Reed was appointed to the Surreme Court. A change in the Roosevelt Cabinet now would be only the third since Mr. ‘Roosevelt's first inauguration in 1933. Both previous

{changes were results of serious ill-

ness and death. Mr. Roosevelt's first Secretary of the Treasury, William H. Woodin, resigned late in 1933 because of illness. Henry S. Morgenthau Jr, has held that post since. Later, Assistant Secretary of War Harry H. Woodring was elevated to the top post in that department after the death of Secretary George H. Dern.
