Britain Takes Quick Naval Precautions In Mediterranean
* Chamberlain Expected to Pledge Greece Aid Thursday.

lain will make in the House of Commons, presumably regarding Greece and possibly Turkey and Rumania.
Germany Denies Troop Shifts
Reports of Nazi troop movements in Germany continued to cause concern regarding & possible thrust at Poland or even on the western
frontier against Belgium or Holland, but authoritative sources in Berlin expressed confidence that there were no large or aggressive concentrations at present. Usually well-informed political sources said there would be a oneday debate in both Houses on Britain's course in the grave European situation, after Prime Minister Chamberlain and Viscount Halifax had made statements in the Commons and the House of Lords respectively. The Cabinet meeting was preceded and followed by visits of key diplomats of foreign powers to the foreign office. Among the visitors was Herschel V. Johnson, First Secretary of the United States Embassy.
Corfu Warning Considered
Political quarters reported that the Cabinet considered sending a
British fleet to Greek waters and landing British troops on the Greek island of Corfu, near the Albanian coast, as a direct warning to Premier Mussolini that Great Britain was prepared to defend Greek independence and territorial integrity by force of arms. Alarming reports of the possibility of an Italian move against Greece, following reports that Germany might bring pressure on Poland, convoked the British and . French war councils into emergency session yesterday. Immediately afterward orders were flashed to British ships to leave Italian ports for the open sea. British naval officers from Gilbraltar who had been spending the Faster holiday in Morocco were recalled to Gibraltar to rejoin their ships immediately. Paris reported that the British and French governments, working in closest co-operation, had agreed that it was necessary to strengthen their forces in the Mediterranean at once.
Chamberlain Hurries Back
Prime Minister Chamberlain broke cff his fishing vacation in Scotland to return and preside at today's cabinet meeting, the first Easter Monday session since the World War. He found that Greece had conveyed to the British Government its acute anxiety over the safety of its 150-mile frontier on Albania, it was understood. The Rumanian Foreign Ministers, meeting last night at Istanbul, agreed to “aim at strengthening the security and independence of friendly and allied countries, and tightening the links with neighboring peoples.” The agreement provided for overtures to Bulgaria. The possibility of including even
and Turkish
Hungary in an antiaggression bloc was considered. . Ships of the Mediterranean Fleet had been on their gala Easter cruises. At San Remo, Naples and Sorrento long fleet visits had been scheduled. When the Admiralty flashed its
order, the battleship Warspite, flagship of Admiral Sir Dudley Pound, Mediterranean Fleet Commander in Chief, had just reached San Remo. The battleship Barham, flagship of Vice Admiral Geoffrey Layton, second in command, had reached Naples. Crews were hurriedly recalled from ashore and the great ships steamed out to sea.
Many Ships Near Adriatic
A destroyer division, nearing Sorrento, turned abruptly back and headed for an unknown destination. The Admiralty, asked to explain, said the visits had been cut short because of the “obscurity” of the Albanian situation, and because “embarrassment might have been caused to all parties.” Disposition of units of the Mediterranean Fleet within reach of the Adriatic as last reported was:
Left Mentone, France, for unknown destination this morning— Battleship Malaya. Cruising in Eastern Mediterranean—Battleship Ramillies. At Corsican Ports—Destroyers Afrida and Mohawk. At or on the way to Malta, the island base near the Italian island of Sicily—Aircraft carrier Glorious; cruisers Devonshire, Shropshire, Sussex, Arethusa, Galatea and Penelope; destroyers Gurkha, Sikh, Bulldog and Nubian and first and third Destroyer Flotillas; first Submarine Flotilla; netlayer Protector; depot ship Maidstone; repair ship Woolwich; supply ship Reliant; hospital ship Maine.
Easter Holiday Disturbed
At Tunisian Ports—Fourth Destroyer Division, First Motor Torpedo Boat Flotilla, depot ship Vulcan. (France has its great African naval base at Bizerte, Tunisia, southwest of Italian Sicily.) At Gibraltar—Destroyers Cossack, Maori and Zulu. Thus, by another of those coincidences for which the British Admiralty is well known, an wuverwhelming part of the Home Fleet was within easiest reach of the Adriatic. Lord Halifax told Guido Crolla, Italian charge d'affaires, yesterday that Britain strongly disapproved of Italy's occupation of Albania. It was learned that Lord Halifax also asked Sig. Crolla about disquieting rumors which the Government had received from the Continent.
Envoys Call
British sources refused to say what these rumors were, but it was assumed they referred to the possibility of an attack by Italy on Greece or Jugoslavia. Russia still was suspicious of Britain's course but the Communist Party newspaper Pravda today suggested that Great Britain provide leadership for a combination of little powers against aggressors and remarked that the Albanian adventure had confirmed that the
Italians were “poor fighters.”

POPE STRESSES
WORLD HARMONY
Easter Appeal Indicates Pius Believes Peace Talks Possible.
VATICAN CITY, April 10 (U. P.). —Official church circles today interpreted His Holiness Pope Pius
XII's Easter appeal for peace among individuals and governments as an indication that he is convinced that the world’s troubles can be settled by conference. The Pope made the appeal in his Easter homily with prayers “to the Lord that he may grant our children, refreshed with the sacrament of the Easter spirit, His love and that He may in His goodness unite them in the bonds of harmony.” “A sense of restlessness and discontent agitates the souls of men,” he said, “almost as if we were on the eve of worse days.” There can be no peace, he said, if peoples of the same land are divided by “clashing parties and interests.” High prelates asserted the homily meant the Holy Father intends to work strenuously for peace.

Youth Goes Home With ‘Mule Cash’
Quinn Chislom, 16, who came north a few weeks ago to earn enough money to buy a mule and wound up in the Juvenile Detention Home here, was on his way home today. Quinn was sent to the Detion Home March 10 and told Court authorities that he had expected either to make his way to the famous Boys Town in Omaha, Neb. or to make enough money to set up as a sharecropper in his Alabama home. In his pockets as he left was money enough to buy the mule and raise the crop of cotton he had planned. His transportation is being paid by Marion County and the cash in pocket came from persons in Indianapolis who wanted to help him—$25 of it from the Variety Club. He is bound for Round Mountain, Ala, where his mother lives.

Following a conference with Governor Townsend, Mr. Bays said that if named chairman he will resign his post on the State Public Service Commission and will start the 1940 Democratic campaign by 2, {May 1. Governor Townsend said reports from all the district chairmen indicate Mr. Bays’ unanimous election. “I will accept the chairmanship only on the provision that I be given a free hand in running the party’s campaign affairs,” Mr. Bays said. “1 have no political aspirations whatever but am so firmly convinced that the Democratic program is the best for the people of Indiana that I want to do all I can to help that rogram.” "He said that if elected chairman he will resign from the Public Service Commission immediately to “devote all my time to party affairs.” Mr. Bays, as Sullivan County Democratic chairman, conducted a colorful campaign in that part of the state last year, resulting in his county’s giving the Democratic ticket one of the larger majorities in the state.

Tirana Awaits Mussolini; Temporary Government Established.
TIRANA, Albania, April 10 (U. P.)—Two hundred transport airplanes were used today to take Italian occupation troops to their posts on the Albanian-Greek frontier region and to the rich Albanian oil field area. Each plane was able to take 24 fully equipped soldiers into the inaccessible mountainous parts of Southern Albania, and to return for a fresh load. With the planes arduous marches, it was expected that the stationing of all soldiers who had arrived within the last three days would be almost completed by nightfall today, and that the occupation would have been almost effected.

106 AND QUEEN 60 TO RESORT
Ex-King Calls Mussolini ‘Madman,’ Chamberlain ‘Damned Fool.’
ATHENS, April 10 (U. P.) —It was announced today that King Zog and Queen Geraldine of Albania will arrive today in Volo, in eastern Greece, and will proceed from there to the summer resort Protaria, where they will remain until their departure, probably soon, for a destination believed to be Egypt. They spent the night in their special train in the town of Larissa and afterward went to a hotel there. The Queen and the infant Prince Skander were reported in good condition.
Queen Reported Better The Queen, a mother of five days, was growing stronger. She had no fever, despite a tiring trip by special train from Salonika. Shortly before leaving Florina yesterday, Zog characterized Fuehrer Hitler and Premier Mussolini as “two madmen, who are disturbing the entire world;” and Prime Minister Chamberlain and Premier Daladier as “two damned fools who sleep.” The statement was made shortly before the special royal train was loaded with 10 cases from Albania’s treasury was issued through the Court Minister of Ceremonies Martini. “War continues in Albania,” Zog said, “with soldiers still holding some important towns. Albanians are being attacked and still are fighting. “Independence Not for Sale” “There are in Europe two madmen wro are disturbing the entire world—Hitler and Mussolini. There are in Europe two damned fools who sleep—Chamberlain and Daladier. If the British ships at Corfu had fired only one shot, none of us would have had to flee. “We prefer to die, from the littlest child to the oldest man, to show the world our independence is not for sale. “The Greeks should fear Italy's plans. Rome intends to take territory as far as Salonika, while Germany intends to take Jugoslavia and Rumania.”
BALKANS FEARFUL MACEDONIA IS NEXT
SOFIA, Bulgaria, April 10 (U.P). —Jittery Balkan diplomatic circles feared today that Italy might follow its Albanian occupation with a quick southern thrust through Macedonia to Salonika, the Grecian seaport. There was no official comment, but the possibility of a new drive was the subject of speculation in legations in Sofia and Belgrade and among politicians of Bulgaria and Jugoslavia. In Belgrade, it was rumored that Bulgaria—poorly equipped and dependent almost solely on Germany for arms and munitions—had agreed to line up with the axis powers. A Nazi leader recently in Sofia allegedly spread the report that Germany planned to offer Bulgaria part of Macedonia in return for Bulgarian assistance or benevolent neutrality in event of axis action against Jugoslavia. This, Bulgarians regarded as baseless propaganda. Until the Albanian crisis, the Government had worked steadily to consolidate its friendship with Jugoslavia and Turkey. Nevertheless, a diplomat stationed at Belgrade told the United Press that Jugoslavian Government circles were worried over Bulgaria's position.
REPORT BRITISH CRAFT SEIZED
HONGKONG, April 10 (U. P.) It was reported authoritatively today that the Japanese Navy seized the British steamer Sagres Saturday off the Fukien coast. It was asserted that lhe Sagres, commanded by Capt. J. M. Morren and proceding from Amoy to Foochow with a cargo of salt, was
Saturday of a complete regiment of crack grenadiers at Tirana. Before the new transport program today, units of the grenadiers and the Bersaglieri had pushed their way through the mountains to take up posts on the Greek and Jugoslav borders. At the same time, it was understood, Italian artillery which had already reached Albania was of sufficient range, together with that of coastal batteries on the Italian side, to close the narrow entrance to the Adriatic without the aid of the Navy. Tirana awaited eagerly for the arrival of Premier Mussolini.
Justice Called Aim
Sig. Mussolini was expected to announce in a speech here his plans for the future of Albania as an Italian “Empire” unit, to mention Italian relations with Albania’s neighbors, and to say a word to Great Britain and France. As Premier Mussolini and Count Galeazzo Ciano, his Foreign Minister and son-in-law, conferred in Rome yesterday on Albanian policy, a German Nazi motorized unit of 150 men in 40 automobiles and 10
.|motorcycles crossed the Austrian
frontier into Italian territory near the Jugoslav frontier on a significant mission of friendship. Count Ciano, before he left Tirana yesterday, said in an interview that Italy, in occupying Albania, aimed at restoring justice and order. He asserted that people all over Albania, more representative of the country than was King Zog had asked Italy to intervene.
Government Set Up
Count Ciano gave his interview at the flying field as he prepared to take off for Rome. As a group of Albanians passed by, bearing sandwich boards inscribed “We hope for schools and hospitals,” Count Ciano said: “And roads.” Those who heard him attached military significance to his remark. The Provisional Government set up yesterday consits of seven Albanians, under former Premier Djafer Ypi, who enjoys the respect of both Albanians and non-Italian foreigners. The Administrative committee sent orders to all prefects and heads of communes urging all military and civil authorities and the public to “obey the glorious Italian troops
and respect.” It was ordered that those who disobeyed were to be arrested.
DUCE CALLS 330,000 RESERVES TO ARMS

recognition of the Spanish Nationalist Government by the United States. In fact, recognition was based by Americans on the stupid hope that it would aid democratic efforts ‘to prevent the crystalization of a Fascist bloc.’
“The search of the American pluto-democrats for money ana blood had another motive in recognition. This is found in the fact that United States relations with the republics of Latin America called for a gesture to Spain, which is bound by many ties to Latin America.” This diversion from attacks on Great Britain and France came as announcement was awaitied of a visit by Premier Mussolini to Tirana, and as the Foreign Office awaited a further strong protest from the British Government against the Albanian campaign. In response to inquiries yesterday by the Earl of Perth, the British Ambassador, Count Galeazzo Ciano, Foreign Minister, was reported to have said that Italy’s action would result in greater prosperity for Albania. Field Marshal Hermann Goering, German Nazi No. 2, arrived at Tripoli yesterday to inspect the defense of Libya.

NLRB REGARDED AS LABOR ‘GOAT’
Sacrifice as Means for Peace Forecast on Eve of Wagner Hearings.
(Continued from Page One)
vided in a free-for-all the Administration strategy is to keep out as long as possible, hoping in the end it will get a balance-of-power position. When Senator Wagner (D. N. Y.), author of the law, takes the stand as the first witness in the Senate hearings, the battle lines will be drawn as follows: 1. The Wagner group. It will fight against nullification. It will admit need for some improvements, but argue that these already are being made by better administration and by clarifying court decisions. 2. The C. I. O. group will oppose all amendments, and defend the existing board as virtually perfect. 3. The A. F. of L. group is outwardly united but actually divided. The right wing favors the Walsh amendment to rig the law in favor of craft unionism, and the later A. PF. of L. amendment to scrap the alleged pro-C. I. O. board for a new board hopefully pro-A. F. of L. But the A. F. of L. left wing opposes most of the Walsh-Green amendments—apart from the outward necessity of face-saving for Green— and will concentrate on saving the law while changing the board. 4, The middle-of-the-roaders include moderate employers. This group is without definite organization. It argues that the only way to save the excellent Wagner Law from destruction through maladministration is to get a new board. It thinks employers should have the right to ask for board elections among employees, and also insists on stricter board rules of evidence. 5. The National Association of Manufacturers and other employer organizations supporting the Burke and similar amendments. This group would in effect rewrite the law to protect employers against unions, instead of protecting employees against coercion by antiunion employers as at present.
