VICHY PERMITS "STATE UNION
Government Employees May Organize but Strike Right Is Refused.
By PAUL GHALI

VICHY, Oct. 3.—State employees in Unoccupied France may organize . -but without the right to strike, under a new law which finally grants a prerogative proposed in
| 1920 but never promulgated until} | now.
Two innovations feature this new | statute as announced in the Official | Journal here. They are: 1. Officials are divided into two ! types—state employees and tnose simply designated employees. This latter class will be assimilated into private employee organizations and will be debarred from the right and obligations of the officialized category. 2. Salaries to officials will be raised and put on a family basis as against the Napoleonic bachelor standard. ! As the basic scale will embrace a married official with two children, it is conceded to be an indirect assault on bachelorhood as unmarried officials will suffer a reduction in pay.

JEWELRY MEN HAVE GEMS, LACK BRASS

newspaper publishing, charged yesterday that ‘“venal, power-mad, money-mad, traitorous newspaper publishers” were responsible for the fall of France. He said that “we have the same
brand of journalism right here in
this country.” + Senator Guffey criticized Roy W. Howard, of the Scripps-Howard Newspapers, for having declined an invitation from President Roosevelt to “assume charge” of improving United States relations with South American republics. He said Mr. Howard refused on the grounds that he was “too busy.” “Too busy doing what?” Guffy inquired. “Too busy traveling to the capitals of the world where he had néver had any difficulty obtaining immediate access to the presence of the dictators: Hitler, Mussolini and the rest of them.
‘What Did He Say?’
“God only wo what the important Mr. Howard told these foes of democracy. It is not beyond the bounds of possibility that he gave them assurance that the A, States would never interfere with their plans to carve up the civilized world and divide it among them-
selves.” Mr. Guffeys speech was entitled “A Fifth Column in the Fourth Estate.” “Chain newspaper publishing has become a menace to democratic institutions and therefore has no place in a democracy—at any time —least of all when this country is facing the opposition and enmity of a rapidly expanding totalitarian world.” Mr. Guffey said that when he talked of chain newspaper publishers he meant the “Wall Street promoter” type who uses his papers “not for the public good but to achieve personal power for himself.
Debate Tax Evasion
In Pittsburgh, Senator Guffey said, the Scripps-Howard newspaper is the Press. “Let ‘Roy Howard's Pittsburgh Press discover that some politician or public official has an unpaid balance with the collector of internal revenue and immediately on front and in editorial pages the scoundrel is exposed and pilloried as a crook and a cheat, deserving only of public contempt,” he said. “I know because someone during my campaign for re-election last year told them I owed the United States Treasury some $4000. Then, and at every subsequent opportunity since they have denounced me as a tax evader.” Senator Guffey asserted that in 1934 Howard's holding company, the Roy W. Howard Co. “enjoyed an income of $501,904, which income represented Howard's salary and profits from his publishing interests.” “Yet on this huge income this super patriot, this protector of the people from tax evaders, paid not one cent in taxes,” Senator Guffey asserted.
SLAYER DEFIANT AS ~ JUDGE. SAYS DEATH
CHICAGO, Oct. 3 (U. P.).—Bernard “Knifey” Sawicki, youthful killer of four persons, shouted \“to hell with you, I can take it,” at Judge John Sbarbarae today when he heard himself sentenced to die Jan. 17 in the electric chair. He stood in silence as Judge Sbarbaro read the warrant which decreed he should die for the murder last June of Charles Speaker, 58-year-old park policeman, “May God have mercy on your soul,” concluded the judge. Sawicki lit a cigaret, then shouted his profane reply. Later, he told bailiffs he was glad the execution would not occur until after New Year's Day. He said he wanted to eat a turkey dinner at the county jail. ’
SIGN CONTRACT FOR DEFENSE JOB SHIFT
DETROIT, Oct. 3 (U. P.).—The

BRITISH CAN'T STARVE REICH, NAZI ASSERTS
BERLIN, Oct. 3 (U, P.). -— R. Walther Darre, German Minister of Agriculture, said today that “the British will to destruction must recognize anew that its hope of starving out Germany, as in the World War, is futile.” i Darre proclaimed Oct. 5 Harvest Thanks Day and said: “Daily bread for the Gérman people again has been secured for the coming year. . .. The victory of the German’ plow is allied with the victory, of the German sword. The German soldier and the German peasant know they can rely upon one another completely in the fateHo pegs forced upon us by Engand.” 4
