materials at Spanish Morocco ports. Britain ha/1 not replied this morning. Its fleet and its powerful Moroccan | army on the alert, the government today prepared a plan of its' own for control of all parts in Spain proper to prevent the flow of volunteers to the Spanish Civil war and received a reply from Spanish Nationalist authorities to its “warning” against permitting German infiltration to Spanish Morocco It was understood that the Spanish high commissioner at Tetuan transmitted this warning to Gen. Francisco Franco, Nationalist
leader, today.
The French consul General at Tetuan delivered the warning to the high commissioner yesterday, in a note from Gen. Auguste Norgucs. high commissioner for French Morocco. The note, approved by the foreign office, “warned" the Nationalists of the "gravity of the situation which would occur in event of installation of German troops in Morocco contrary to treaties.’’ This warning, and its citation of a treaty of 1912 between France and Spain, was pointed to by the foreign office today in its dismissal of reports abroad that France and Great Britain planned to occupy Spanish Morocco if the Nationalists refused to oust Germans there.

CLEVELAND (UP) —A 32-year old former G-man. who was the spearhead of the drive that smashed the A1 Capone reign in Chicago, is j giving the police department in this city of a million one of the most thorough purges it ever has known Elliot Ness became Cleveland safe- I ty director one year ago. Since that time, using methods employed by the federal bureau of investigation, he has waged a dramatic campaign against police graft. His most important single investigation culminated in the charging of 20 policemen, several of them high department officials, with protecting bootleggers during the prohibition era. Young, energetic, forceful. Ness has made himself a popular figure in Cleveland through his personal cleanup of the city's rackets. Raids that have eliminated several gambling joints and vice hangouts invariably have been headed by the safety director himself. Besides setting out to rid the city of its rackets, Ness has made a number of reforms in the police department. Patrolmen are appointed on their merit. They receive physical examinations, intelligence tests, and oral exams by the safety director or one of his assistants. And they are told to disregard any hint of politics or statement that they must pay some official to obtain appointment. The safety director’s methols of investigation include a long and careful study of the situation, making use of several individual investigators, followed by the presentation of a documented mass of evidence to the prosecuting attorney. The activities of Police Capt. M. J Harwood were the center of the most startling investigation. The captain had submitted his resignation with the request that he receive a lifetime pension of $140 a month. Ness refused to accept the resignation. Then followed a raid, headed by the safety director, of a handbook in Harwood’s precinct. The raid led to Harwood’s suspension. A few weeks after Harwood was relieved. Ness charged the entire personnel of a precinct of protecting and accepting bribes from bootleggers. Nine of these men have been indicted by a federal grand jury. Ness’s investigation also allegedly involved Capt. Louis J. Cadek. who was convicted of accepting bribes from bootleggers. Cadek, sentenced from two to 20 years in the Ohio penitentiary, is appealing. The resignation of Capt. Adolph Lenehan of another precinct also was the result of the Ness investigation system. A squad of rookie patrolmen, unknown to the rest of the department. was trained in G-men tactics and assigned to investigate the precinct w’here the safety director had received reports that a handbook was being operated. Ness tells the story himself: “The rookies entered the place, mingled with the crowds, picked out the operators and then made telephone reports of what they found to Capt. Lenehan. “No action was taken. “Next, I had a woman call the precinct to complain that her son w r as losing all his money in the place. Still no action.” Then a raid was staged, headed by the safety director. When the lights wore turned on the rookies held nine operators, the raiders confiscated $700 in cash. Failure of Capt. Lenehan to close the place was called “mere negligence.” but he was permitted to resign.

STRIKE DEADLOCKED
DETROIT. Jan. 11, (UP)—Automobile strike leaders told General Motors “it’s your move,” today. The $1 500,000.000 corporation made no immediate reply, standing finn on its demand that “sit-down” strikers leave its plants before negotiations begin. Union leaders were equally insistent that before they would remove “sit down” strikers General Motors must promise in writing not to move machinery out of plants and not to try to resume production during negotiations. The deadlock on those two demands k"pt approximately 100.000 General Motors employes out of work and in many parts of the country halted the corporation’s assembly lines.

JOHNSTOWN. Pa., (UP)—In the city where two of the greatest floods ■n history occurred, citizens cannot buy flood insurance covering general property. There are exceptions—but they are rare. They might be found in the case of a chain organization which has units in a wide area, including cities where there Is no danger of flood. Automobile owners may take out policies covering flood losses. Merchants may insure plate glass windows under a general breakage policy. But for private property owners there is slight chance of insuring it against floods. In 1889 and 1936. major flood disasters struck Johnstown. The great flod of '89 killed more than 2.000 persons. dams burst and sent great torrents of water down through the narrow canyon which is Johnstown proper. More than a score of lives
