SHANGHAI—New peace move reported.

LONDON, Dec. 14 (U. P)~—A strong police guard was placed over the German Embassy today as Brit-ish-German relations took a sharp turn for the worse. The reason was the Nazi boycott of a banquet at which Prime Minister Chamberlain

was the speaker. Meanwhile Prime Minister Chamberlain rallied to the support of France against Italian demands on Tunis with a statement in the House of Commons that the Mediterranean status quo mentioned in the British-Italian accord applies to Tunis, | Three policemen patroled “before the German Embassy. Others watched discreetly from nearby vantage points to guard against any hostile demonstrations by people who had seen the screaming headlines with which newspapers reported what they interpreted as an affront to the British Government. It was indicated that the banquet incident was but a chance manifestation of a new diplomatic situation in which Great Britain and France might again find themselves aligned against the totalitarian ‘powers, Germany and Italy.

Nazi Newspapers Scored

Not only German newspapermen but Dr. Herbert Von Dircksen, Ambassador, and Gottfried Aschman, special envoy of Fuehrer Adolf Hitler, boycotted the banquet because Premier Chamberlain, in his speech, criticized the “vituperation” of German newspapers against Earl Baldwin, “most respected of our statesmen,” and other British public men. . There was reason to believe that a special report of Mr. Chamberlain’s speech, taken by shorthand reporters at the German Embassy by radio, had been forwarded to Herr Hitler today. The speech as broadcast was checked for minor departures which the Prime Minister made from the text—the text which, distributed in confidence and in advance to newspaper correspondents, caused the boycott. Ostensibly, it was the criticism of German newspapers alone which impelled the Germans to remain away from the banquet, given by the Foreign Press Association.

Hitler’s Order Reported

But there were reports that the Nazi Government was equally annoyed by a reference which Mr. Chamberlain made to the transitory nature of such regimes as that

. of the Nazis. Herr Hitler and his men have made a point of impressing on Germans *that nazism will never die and that its buildings are constructed so as to live for thousands of years. Uusually well-informed sources reported that Herr Hitler himself ordered the boycott, after having been advised of what Mr. Chamberlain intended saying. Under the unhappy augury of the banquet boycott, Dr. Hjalmar Schacht, head of the German Reichsbank and world authority on finance, arrived today to negotiate with Montague Norman, governor of the Bank of England, and to discuss financial matters of urgent importance. Dr. Schacht intended to talk over the possibility of an international agreement for emigration of German Jews under a plan that would permit Jews to take a fragment of their possessions with them and would result in Germany getting

LIMA, Peru, Dec. 14.—It now is apparent that 21 American republics are in virtual accord on a com-

mon front against armed aggression or subversive ideological activities against the Western Hemisphere. There no longer seems the slightest doubt that every American government from the Great Lakes to the Straits of Magellan is not only keenly aware of this menace but is far from indifferent about it. Lima witnessed a clear indication of this late yesterday. The Committee on Organization of Peace was proceeding in its leisurely way when the Haitian delegate, Dantes Bellegarde, arose and in lucid French lambasted, without naming it, Nazidom for its intolerance and persecution of race and religion ‘and called on the America to stand steadfast against nazism gaining a foothold in the western world. Mr. Bellegarde’s speech was short and entirely impromptu but was filled with emotion and sent something like an electric shock through the meeting.

Rush to Shake Hahde.

There came a gale of applause, then as recess was announced delegates rushed to shake the speaker's hand. It was more than a tribute to Mr. Bellegarde; it was a public and sweeping condemnation of Nazi methods, a sign that Hitlerism is not wanted anywhere on this side of the Atlantic. Signs are increasing that Germans are overplaying their hand. Systematic persecution of Jews is hurting

them even in quarters not particularly sympathetic to Jewry as a whole. “All the delegates seem to sense that the Nazi creed is that might is right and that the Nazis deal with weaker peoples in an unspeakable, coldblooded and cruel way whenever they think they can get away with it. This conviction is not helpful to German penetration in Latin America. Just as before, during and’ after the World War, German diplomacy seems utterly incapable of gauging foreign reaction. Given enough rope the Nazis may yet hang themselves in this corner of the world both politically and economically. Conversations here convince many that if the Americas show strength enough to discourage armed aggression ideological penetration is unlikely to succeed over a long haul. Even today many observers are inclined to believe the U. S. exagger(Continued on Page Five)

DEMOCRATS IN COUNTY RALLY

FOR 40 FIGHT

‘Grass. Roots’ Conference Called Today to Map Strategy.

PATRONAGE IS STUDIED

Hearing on ‘Coercion’ Count Against Baker Set for Tomorrow.

(Other Stories, Page Three)

A “grass roots” conference to form some early battle lines for the 1940 campaign in Marion County was to be held by Democratic Party leaders at the Court House this afternoon. All newly elected County officials and those re-elected were notified by formal letter to attend “an important meeting at 2 p. m.” Party leaders said new policies of Government administration from the judiciary to janitor service will be considered in a “closed meeting.”

Silent on ‘Purge’

“We intend to organize public officials for mass co-operation in efficiency of government in Marion County,” one spokesman for a committee arranging the conference, said. Party leaders declined to discuss personalities, or whether a general “purge” of the rank and file appointees would be forthcoming. The necessity of tightening the Democratic party lines before 1940 was revealed in the close vote margin of the Nov. 8 election. Democrats won by majorities of only 7000 to 13,000 compared -to more than 30,000 in 1936. Also to be discussed by newly elected officials are some Ilastminute problems of appointments in several of the major County offices. One official said there are “more deserving Democrats” than there are jobs to offer and a weeding out process has begun. More than 400 City and County Shrciniments must be made before an, 1.

LEAGUE SEEKS

INSPECTION OF BIG FURNACES

Abatement Organization to Ask Council for New Ordinance.

Nearly 1000 Tons Fell Last Month; 605 Tons in October.

.As the City Building Department reported nearly 1000 tons of soot fell on Indianapolis last month,

nounced today it would ask the incoming City Council to pass an ordinance requiring annual inspections of all large coal-burning furnaces.

Combustion Engineer J. W. Clinehens reported that the sootfall increased from 11.55 tons per square mile in October to 18.94 tons in November. The total was 992 tons last month compared to 605 for October. Dr. Herman G. Morgan, City Health Board Secretary and Smoke Abatement League president, has named a committee to confer with Mayor-elect Sullivan on smoke plans for next year. The League will elect officers at its annual meeting Jan. 17. The proposed ordinance, based on one used by Chicago, would provide for the inspections at an estabnually, Roy O. Johnson, League counsel, said.

Institute Planned

“Plants so inspected would have to comply with the proposed ordinance,” Mr. Johnson said. “They would have to keep smoke. to a minimum and in addition be in good enough condition to eliminate any chance of fire or explosion.” Present plans also:call for a combustion institute to be held early in January. The institute would be open to the public and would stress proper methods of firing as well as the value of proper equipment to eliminate smoke, it was stated. In the last. week Mr. Clinehens

is| has contacted 13 smoke offenders by

mail and already has received replies from six, he said. “The answers I have received are highly encouraging,” he said. “Those who have ‘answered so far have either begun correcting the nuisance or have made appointments to see me and receive instruction on what they can do to eliminate the smoke.” “Cities pass through various stages of growth until they realize that they have reached maturity— and a smoke problem. Always the cities discover their problem before they have done anything to prevent it,” Mr. Clinehens said. “Usually the case is that—when the City does realize the difficulty (Continued on Page Three)

Governor Townsend today urged immediate prosecution of all violations of the. antislot machine edic?.
