Berlin Press Raps U. S. Envoys
In Berlin Diplomatic and Political Correspondence, | organ of the Foreign Office, joining in an angry press campaign, said that activities of American diplomatic representatives in Europe as alleged in an official White Book had been #dangerous and even criminal.” . “It is surprising and even monstrous,” said the publication, which is an outlet for Foreign Office views, “that official diplomatic representatives of a power which fundamentally since Washington and Monroe, has opposed interference ir the af-

“Tragic in their effect are the reports of Polish diplomats to War saw regarding: the readiness of American diplomats, by intervention in London, to. close up existing gaps. “The methods of these American amateur diplomats are all the more inconceivable since the neutrality laws of their country must have told them that their actions were diametrically opposed to the standpoint of their country.

Federal anti-trust law s apply to labor unions. The Court consented to review, an A. F. of L. protest against an anti-
picketing | injunction restraining a Chicago milk wagon drivers’ union for alleged violation of the antitrust statutes. The Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals had held that the activities of the A. F. of L. union in picketing stores handling products of the Lake Valley Farms Products, Inc, were in restraint of trade and should: be barred. The union asserted that language of the Sherman and Clayton Anti-Trust Acts specifically exempted unions. The Supreme Court has before it another phase of the dispute in the case of the Apex Hosiery Co. of Philadelphia. The company seeks a $711,932 triple-damage judgment lagainst a C. I. O, union for alleged ‘damage done in ‘a sit-down strike, ‘which the company contended restrained trade. The Court granted the A. F. of L.’s request for review of an NLRB order canceling an A. F. of L. closed shop contract with the Serrick Corp., Muncie, Ind., parts manufacturer.
NEW YORK SUBWAY

NEW YORK, April 1 (U. P.).— Two high officials of the C. I. O. arrived ‘today to discuss a threatened strike which may paralyze the vital transportation artebies of the nation's largest city. . The fle are the miles of underground railroad—the subways— and the threat came from their unionized employees marking time on a deadline for striking. The union officials, Alan S. Haywood, national director of the C. I. 0., and Lee Pressman, general counsel, came from Washington to confer with Mayor F. H. La Guardia. They said they were representing John L. Lewis, C. I. O. president, who could not devote his personal attention to the threatened strike ‘because of an engagement elsewhere. Mr. Lewis is in West Virginia to address a meeting of coal miners. If the unionized employees strike, 7,000,000 persons will find their normal daily journeying between work and home difficult if not impossible. | mm——————

The Speedway City community, already excited over its building and industrial boom, had a new excitement today—oil fever. For the last several weeks, a group of oil promoters have been visiting land owners in the vicinity of Speedway City, seeking oil leases, and quite a few are reported to have been signed. A test well was started last week onthe lold Pugh farm, on Wall St. Road near Big Eagle Creek. The drilling is being- done by Harry® H. Fox, R. R. 6, Shelbyville, drilling contractor.- The shaft is being sunk at | the' rate of 1:00 feet every 24 hours. Oil is expected to be found at a depth of 1000 feet. Land owners said the leases were being obtained by NN. N. Smith, Frankfort, Ind.” who with J. M. Wissing, Franklin County stock raiser, has engaged in drilling operations in several sections ofthe

Mr. Smith, who could not be reached for comment, was said by acquaintances to be convinced there is a strata of oil extending all the way from here to Vincennes. Landowners who have given Mr. Smith oil leases said they called for
a royalty of one-eighth of 1 per}
cent of the oil produced. Their hopes of striking bil were buoyed by the fact that another promoter, Charles E. Jefferson, struck oil last November in the vicinity of Road 29 and the Canal, only a féw miles from the site of the new ac lvity. Mr. Jefferson’s well still is being operated on|/a test basis, reportedly producing Is barrels a day.

NLRB ALTERS RULE IN RUNOFF ELECTION
WASHINGTON, April 1 (U: P). —The National Labor Relations Board, in a two-to-one decision, today reversed ‘its previous policy of placing the name of only one union on run-off election ballots. The new policy was announced in an order for a run-off election among employees of the R. K. Leblond Machine Tool Co. and the
Cincinnati Electrical Tool Co., both
of Cincinnati. “The Board directed that the runoff ballot should carry the names of both the Amalgamated Associa tion of Iron, Steel and Tin Workers Union (CIO) and the Independent Employees Association. / Previously when initial ballots failed to give a majority result, the Board followed the practice of allowing the workers to choose between the union receiving the largest vote in the first election and not being represented by any union. Under the new procedure the two unjons will be on the second ballot,
but there will be no place to vote|
against Tepresentation by either union.

Dewey Faces Severe Test Tomorrow; Garner Dares 3d Term Sentiment.

| better served by a Vandenberg vic-
tory in that state. The reasoning on which this belief is based goes to the Dewey type and the Dewey, center-rush strategy. Mr. Dewey is being presented as a forceful, hard-hitting youngster with glamour and appeal,
wide popular support and sweep him into the convention with a large batch of delegates and a momentum that will capture the ‘nomination at the outset, ' Garner Prestige at Stake If the New Yorker can’t catch the popular fancy and play that role, it is generally conceded here that his bubble will burst quickly when it gets into the convention and is tossed about among the hardboiled practical leaders who don’t trust his sort anyway. The inside New Deal clique which is promoting the third-term movement for the Rresident expects Wisconsin to be in the first blow at.the Garner candidacy, which, followed as, they expect by others, beginning with Illinois, will completely squelch the Texan and lower his “prestige and influence. Going about ' his work quietly here is the man who might be able to swing Wisconsin dramatically, if he chose. But Senator La Follette has kept hands off. New Dealers were eager for him to speak out and direct his Progressive followers to the Roosevelt banner, as a means of showing a Roosevelt sentiment far exceeding that of either the Vice President or the two Republican candidates. This is a wide open primary and a word from the Senator would have been effective.
Senator Has Own Troubles
The Senator is up for re-election this year and facing real trouble, to judge from the severe defeat suffered two years ago by his brother Phil when he sought a fourth term as Governor. He is not getting entangled just now in any unnecessary commitments. . Further than that, the Senator is considering his situation beyond the conventions. He is going to wait until both parties have nominated their candid#tes before he takes a position on the national ticket, it is learned. He has supported President Roosevelt by and large. He made the break with the Republicans. In the state he and his brother have their own Progressive Party. The independent . third party strain runs in the La Follette family from the father, the elder Béb, ho ran on an independent ticket 1924. Phil attempted two years go to set up ‘a new party, the Naional Progressives. of America, which did not. fare too well. But the framework still exists, and Senator Bob still wears the party. emblem on his lapel. This year may turn out to be the year for a break.

VOTE ON TRADE PACTS DELAYED
Minton Insists Majority of People in Country Favor Treaties.
WASHINGTON, April 1 (U. P.)— Opponents of the Administration’s reciprocal trade program delayed a final vote on its extension today with a series of amendments designed to give Congress a stronger voice in drafting trade agreements.
Democratic leaders predicted a final’ vote by Wednesday on the House-approved bill to extend the act for three years. Republicans and Western Democrats, however, said it might be later before the bill could survive the proposed amendments. Confronting the Senate today was a proposal by Senator Pat McCarran (D. Nev.) to prohibit Secretary of State Cordell Hull from disturbing existing excise taxes on coal, oil, lumber and copper. Republican Leader Charles L. McNary predicted that voters would support Republicans and Democrats who favored ratification, and that the question would form a major issue at the polls. Assistant Democratic Leader Minton laughed at Mr. McNary’s forecast. “I think the coalition leader is mistaken,” he said. “The people of this country are generally in favor of the trade treaties. Nobody in the Senate is going to lose his seat in November because he voted against the ratification amendment.”
