Fliers Attack Invasion Bases in Bad Weather; Parading Troops in Rome Protest British Aid Bill; Italian

Resistance in Albania Stiffens.

By UNITED PRESS

The British Empire forces of the land and air held the

offensive i in the war today.

While the Army of the Nile was making its dash into] Benghazi in eastern Libya to smash Italian hopes of driving to Alexandria and the Suez Canal, the R. A, F. was striking

at German invasion bases on

the French Coast. The London Air Ministry disclosed that British planes last night heavily attacked the ports of Fecamp, Dieppe, Boulogne, -Calais and Dunkirk across the Channel. Many large fires were reported. The Air Ministry said the raids were made despite bad weather. The British said that barges apparently, peing held ready for an invasion attempt were sunk.

Troops Parade in Rome

In Rome hundreds of troops, including crack units of the beplumed Bersaglieri, carrying full war kits and served from mobile field kitchens, were called out to reinforce the normal Carabinieri

Guard at the United States Embassy and Consulate General as university students staged patriotic parades in the streets protesting the British aid bill now being debated by Congress in Washington. The demonstrations were a continuation of students parades yesterday when no extraordinary precautions were taken to protect the embassy. More Italians Sent to Albania Military quarters in London reported growing resistance by Italfans fighting Greek troops in Albania. It was said that the.Italians were being re-inforced constantly and were fighting stiff rear guard actions as they fell back toward their communications bases in rough country and bad weather. Tt was reported in Athens that Greek , troops had broken up two Itallan mechanized attacks in- the Klisura | sector of the Albanian front. The Italians were said to have lot their commander and six tanks. Otherwise, a Greek” War Ministry communique said, actiyity in Albania was limited to artiljery and patrol work. Battle in Eritrea Indicated The Italians also were reported ready to make last ditch stand defense against the British in Eritrea. An Ttalian prisoner told British yi officers that three battalions of the Grenadiers, the best troops in the Italian Army, had been rushed from Addis Ababa to Keren, Tne Grenadier’ s story would mean that upwards of 3000 picked men were awaiting the British, 35 miles from Asmara, the Capital, and 60

miles from ‘Massawa, the big port of Eritrea on the Red -Sea British headquarters in Cairo said that the situation at Keren was “developing satisfactorily” and that the Sudanese defense forces invading Eritrea already had taken 3500 prisoners “with many | more coming in.” Report 10,000 Panicky 3 On the Barentu front south of the Keren area in Eritrea nearly 10,000 Italian troops, most of them Fascist Black Shirt militia, “Mussolini’s Pride,” were reported running wildly through mountain trails before the British, hungry, thirsty and choked with dust. In the Eritrea-Sudan-Ethiopia frontier corner, British forces were reported to have re-effected contact with Ethiopian insurgents and to be pushing along the road to Gondar, Ethiopia. On the Far Southern front, two companies of Italians were put out of. action by British .patrols in the Bels-Gugani region of Italian Somaliland. Mediate Indo-China War Negotiations to settle the territorial dispute between French IndoChina and Thailand (Siam) opened in Tokyo with Japan as mediator. There was another conference in Rome among German and Italian delegates seeking to synchronize their economy and bring Germanoccupied countries into their economic orbit. Simultaneously Italians were admohished to see to it that every foot of tultivatable land is planted. In this connection it was recalled that Italy recently agreed to increase its food exports to] Germany.

JURY FREES 3 IN WPA. TRIAL

Baltzell Hopes Evidence in Future Cases Is Not Similar to This. (Continued from Page One)

Judge | Baltzell pointed out that “work done (by the WPA) may have been outside the rules, but Mr. Kortepeter evidently believed he was

1 don’t know of any evidence in 4this case,” he continued, “that Mr. Jefferson or Mr. Eickhoff knew of the authority of the work or its scope; they just knew that some work was going on.”

Has Definite Opinions

Previously, with the jury out of the room after all testimony had been presented, Judge Baltzell told the attorneys in the case that he would submit the case to the jury and that “if the verdict is guilty, I may have something to say (on motions for - directed. verdicts of acquittal), for I have some very definite opinions on the basis of the evidence.”

As arguments began, immediately after that statement, the Government, through Paul Pfister, assistant U. 8. District Attorney, warned that no matter what the outcome of this case, other cases in the office now will be tried.

Interrupted by Judge

“Nobody’s got any strings on me or on the district attorney's office,” he told the jury. “We're going to prosecute every case that is pending—and don’t let anyone think differently.” Later, Mr. Caughran said, in part: “On the outcome of this case depends the prosecution of gther WPA fraud indictments.” Mr. Caughran also stated if he had thought for a minute that the defendants were being “mistreated or accused unjustly this jury would never have heard of this case.” “I think that the court, inadvertently” , . . Mr. Caughran began, but Judge Baltzell interrupted. “1 don’t think youd better continue that argument,” he said. Mr. Caughran, without looking at the judge, continued: “I beg the court's pardon, I was only going to say . . .” Here he was interrupted again by Judge | Baltzell: “I'm| still running this court,” he reminded. Gives Short Summary Mr. Caughran abantioned that argument then, gave a short summary, and the Government rested. In his closing arguments, Harvey Hartsock, attorney for Mr. Eickhoff, charged that the Federal Grand Jury had “made a horrible mistake in returning these indictments.” Homer Elliott, .attorney for Mr. Jefferson, said that the money the Government accused the defendants of having diverted to themselves . |went instead to the pockets of WPA 6 | workess in payment for work done. Paul 'Y. Davis, attorney for Mr. Kortepeter, who was convicted in another WPA fraud trial a few months ago and who must begin an 18-month sentence Monday, said: “Maybe once—but not twice— can this evidence, this mass of records, be twisted so as to send men to prison whose sole purpose in their work for the WPA was to put men to work on authority granted by the President of the United States.”

SCHRICKER VETO

Governor Fears Chaos If ‘Rippers’ Leave State Without Laws.

of maintaining stable and efficient government for the citizens of Indiana. The people demand and have a right to expect that we will fulfill that opligation.” - The first reaction to the Governor’s message from official sources was that Mr. Schricker believes many provisions of Republican “ripper” bills are unconstitutional and will say so when and if they are laid upon his desk in their present form. Rep. Winfield K. Denton (D. Evansville), minority leader, said the Governor's message was “as clear and convincing a statement as you could have of the chaotic conditions this madcap legislation would leave us in.” Rep. Frank T. Millis (R. Campbellsburg), majority leader, said: “Just as I expected. I am not at all surprised.”

Sees Undue Alarmr

Senator Albert Ferris (R. Milton) caucus chairman, said: “The Gov=ernor’s message seems to have been made without the feeling of confidence that the Republicans would provide a substitute that would relieve the chaos. I think the Governor is unduly alarmed.” Regarding the McNutt Act repealer, Governor Schricker said: “I would welcome the opportunity to approve it.” Then, however, he outlined extensive legal reasons why he believed the state would be left in “chaos and confusion” because of having no “constitutional” substitute. When the Governor appeared in the House, an unprecedented procedure, the entire membership arose and gave him a long ovation.

Governor Applauded

It was the first time in more than a decade that a Governor had personally appeared before legislators to read a veto message. Senators flocked across the hall to hear him. The galleries were filled and scores of other visitors jammed the passageways. After the speech, the Governor received a big hand and several Republicans still were standing and applauding as he left the chamber.

PAROLEE HELP GROUP FORMED

Double Prison Responsibility Rests With Citizens, Professor Says.

Prisoner training and safeguarding of prison administration are the double responsibility of Indiana citizens, Prof. Louis E. Evans ef. Indiana University told business men and social workers last night at the Indiana World War Memorial. “Prison parolees can make good if given an opportunity in business,” Prof. Evans declared. “Prisons and reformatories can aid the community in the job of restoring them to useful life by organizing training programs.” At the same time, he said, voluntary citizens groups such as the one meeting last night can watch prison administration and help parolees get back into business and industrial life. Meanwhile, A. E. Sinclair, group chairman, announced formation of two committees, one to obtain jobs for parolees and the other to work for juvenile delinquency prevention. Sheriff, Al Feeney was named chairman of the juvenile delinquency committee, whose members will be named later, and Delbert Giffin of P. R. Mallory Co., Inc., was named chairman of the committee to investigate parolees. Members of Mr. Giffin’s committee include Jess R. Meyers, Udell Works; Harold Schuman, Fairmount Glass® Works; Earl Buchanan, National Malleable and Steel Castings Co.; T. J. Townsend, Stokely Bros. & Co.; Arthur Williams, Personnel Managers’ Association secretary; James I. Robb, C. I. O. regional director, and Emmett J. Williams, Teamsters and Chauffeurs’ Union

REPUBLICAN LEADERS, it seems, are developing an unexpected but- sizable hangover on the liquor question. A sudden, and intense “heat” flared up after the high command's

announcement of a proposed “decentralization” plan last ‘Monday |

night in which 92 county boards, appointed by Circuit Court judges, would have life-or-death control over all liquor problems. And some

of it came from unexpected sources. 5 Even though the bill, which was scheduled for introduction last Wednesday, hasn’t put in an appearance yet, not a few Republican legislators have indicated they will break their straighte party-line "activity if it is presented as outlined. It has been the subject \ of more extra-curricular debate and discussion than any bill not yet introduced. Republican Senators held a huddle yesterday afternoon, and although those who attended were swdrn to secrecy,.it’'s a good $2-on-the-nose bet that the liquor question occupied much of the discussion. Just what the G. O. P. chiefs intend to do about this situation remains a mystery. Meanwhile, they have other things on their minds. For ine stance, there's the State Commit= tee meeting tonight, at which they will hear officially the report of last week’s Governor Schricker-G. O. P. legislative leaders conference. Both the Governor and the Republicans said another meeting probably would be held to discuss a possible “compromise” on legislation setting up a new form of government. It’s likely the high command won’t make any “compromise” de= cisions until they have digested the Governor's veto messages and have talked over the out-state reaction with county chairmen and Republican editors, who also are coming to town for a week-end ot victory celebrating. But the eagerness with which some Republicans recently jumped on a couple of the Governor's statements after they had passed up more blistering ones a few days earlier, and the general trena of the G. O. P. orators in both houses leads one to believe that “compromise” isn’t very close.

Labor on ert ’

ORGANIZED LABOR wasted no time in going after a proposal to make payment of poll tax a requisite of the right to vote. Only in the South are such laws still in effect, and they are under heavy attack there on the grounds that less than 10 per cent of the people may vote. Labor leaders charged that if such a law were approved in Indiana, it would deprive working people of. the right to vote .because of their economic status. Two Republican Representatives, H. ;H. Evans of New Castle and Bert Summerland of Wabash, introduced the resolution one day, withdrew it the next. Labor’s = big guns now are trained on Senator Orville Stout's drastic bill against strikes and picketing. John Bartee, C. I. O. executive, has caled it “the most obnoxious piece of legislation yet introduced.”

vee ” ” ” Hit Initiation Fees ANOTHER BILL affecting labor

was introduced in the House yesterday and its author's say it is

intended to. eliminate “4 racket which is developing in Indiana’s defense industries.” These Representatives, Claude L. Baylor (D. Speed) and Roy Harrison (R. Attica), say some union representa= tives are charging $200 “initia= 'tion” fees for workers who must have union cards to get jobs at the powder plants and other armament works. They claim the union officials often decided after a month or twp that the new worker is “incompetent” and see that he loses his job, thus creating another vacancy requiring importation of another craftsman and $200 more for the union officials. This bill would prohibit union officials from making any assess=ment of more than 10 per cent of the worker’s weekly wage. ” » ”

Slightly Baffled

HOUSE JUDICIARY Committee members, looking over the Senate-approved resolution for an investigation of Indiana’s govern= ment, were a little baffled. They had been reading in the papers that the probe was to cover “the last eight yeats of Democratic administrations”—but they couldn't find that provision. Finally they spotted it in the “whereases,” and some opined that since it wasn’t under the “be it resolveds,” the inquiry could cover about any period of government the probers want it to. . . . Marion County’s Republican Senate delegation has changed its mind about taking control of voter registration hy legislative action to put the prosecutor in charge. The bill has been amended to set up a two-member bi-partisan board—and it now also covers all counties with populations of more than 80,000. . .. The Republicans still are} sizzling over what they called a “political trick” yesterday in which the Senate Democrats forced them to turn a cold shoulder on Wendell Willkie, the 1940 “native son” Presidential candidate. After the G. O. P. had voted not to indorse Mr. Willkie's recent activities, newspapermen called to the attention of Senator Roger Phillips, Democratic author, that the candidate’s name was spelled “Wilkie” throughout. “Well,” he said, “I guess that's all right since the Republicans have knocked Yhe “1” out of him.” 8 \»

Gun Clubs i in Arms

HOOSIER G JLUBS, conservation groups and farmers are up in arms about the “Explosives Control” bill which the U, S. is sponsoring in the Legislature. They claim that' under its provisions, a litense would be required to buy a dozen shotgun shells or 22 bullets for hunting or target shooting. And under the bill's terms, getting a license is quite a job, they claim. These groups
