ROY L. SMITH. Beware of the Man -Who cannot laugh with little children. Who cannot find pleasure in the company of a boy.

Wary Of Mexico (Continued From Page One) cent statement to the Associated Press that foreign investors have nothing to fear in Mexico. Fear Of Losses Grows Rumors the $400,000,000 foreign oil industry approximately half the amount representing U. S. capital stood in danger of losing leases and other vital rights got about in con nection with the proposed reorganization of "Petroles de Mexico," the semi-official company set up in 1934 to exploit government-held leases. The company is generally known as Petromex.

Plans for this company, it was authoritatively stated Thursday, include conversion into an autonomous government agency. Spokesmen for the foreign oil companies said their chief fear was that the proposed government agency would be "unfair competition," in that the official company will not be subject to labor laws and probably would not be asked to post guaranty bonds, or do the yearly exploration and upkeep work as evidence of intent to exploit oil lands as is required of private enterprise. May Liquidate Holdings The few private stockholders In "Fetroles de Mexico" have been summoned to meet to-morrow to dis cuss liquidation of their holdings. An unofficial list from the U. S.

Department of Commerce reports the largest United States interests in Mexico include: American Smelt ing and Refining, Southern Pacific Railway, United Fruit, Intercontinental Rubber 'Company, subsidiaries of the Anaconda an Phelps Dodge Copper companies. Electric Bond and Share, Huasteca Petrol eum Company (subsidiary of Stan dard of New Jersey), and the Sin clair, Mexican-Gulf and Pierce oil interests. William Randolph Hearst is an outstanding big landowner and there are numbers of others, chiefly companies organized by Texas interests. Ownership of some properties is complicated since subsidiaries are presumably owned by Mexican subjects in some instances, and in others Mexican-owned property has been turned over to Americana for protective purposes. Fleeing Convicts Are Recaptured BLOOMFIELD.

Feb. 28. (AP) Three fleeing convicts from Menard penitentiary at Chester, I1L, holding a taxicab driver as hostage, were captured here early today three hours after they escaped from the prison farm near Chester. Sheriff Randal Evans and his two deputies, Clyde Alexander and Clarence Capps, halted the convicts and taeir prisoner with a burst of gunfire In the public square at 6 a. m.

(CST). No one was wounded. The felons overpowered two guards in gaining their freedom, the sheriff was informed. The convicts, all trusties, are Milton (Snake) Armstrong, 57 years old. colored, serving a life sentence for murder: Lonnie Hawton.

They quoted administration farm leaders as saying that even with two recent drouths and the AAA reduction programs there had been no "acute food shortage" in this country. Assertine that former government farm programs had been aimed at reducing large supplies in private hands, the economists said the gran ary plan was inconsistent wiin these, in attempting 10 ouim up supplies in the hands of government and at the same time maintain prices of farm products. Liquidation Difficult The economists recalled experi ence of the old federal farm board, saying it "found to its sorrow, the drawing in of supplies from the market at times of excess in an undertaking which has the full support of farmers and their political spokesmen, but the attempt to liquidate these supplies evokes loud protests from agricultural interests that challenge the right of a government agency to enter into market operations which undermine prices at a time when the farmer has at best only a small crop to sell." The report said administration of a storage or loan program "is subject to great pressure from farm commodity groups often reinforced by political pressure, as was amply demonstrated by the experience with AAA loans, particularly those on cotton." The economists suggested government efforts could be better directed towards improving present trade, credit, and transportation agencies, which they said now tend to equalize farm supplies between seasons within "limits set by perishability and the cost of holding operations." Benefit Payments Approved Tayment of nearly $2,000,000,000 in benefit payments to farmers and the crop-control features of the original AAA won approval. "Our general conclusion from the experience with production control in 1933-35, as far as we can observe it through the dust of drouths, is that the effectiveness of these devices is such as to make them practicable in emergency periods," they said. Asserting corn and cotton loans had resulted from political or regional pressure, the report said the "AAA has shown growing inability to limit itself in its payments to the classes of cases in which we have argued there is economic justification." The report said government farm programs should try to help the "little fellow" as well as large commercial interests in agriculture, but warned against "confusing the 'little fellow with the 'poor fellow' who lies below the margin of stable economic adjustment." "To load the problem of chronic rural poverty on the AAA would be to threaten its breakdown," the economists said, and suggested such problems were best handled by an agency like the Resettlement Ad ministration.

Actuarial Basis Urged Government crop insurance was approved "if put on a strictly actu arial basis." The study was prepared by Edwin G. Nourse, director of Brookings Institute of Economics; Joseph S. Davis, director of the Food Research Institute nf Stanford university, and John D. Black, professor of economics at Harvard university. Davis and Black filed "conclusions" differing in some aspect of the main report.

Shells whined all day ovor University City, west of the eapital, as government guns began a long-awaited effort to drive rebels from the strategic Clinico hospital which they have held for two months. Tanks Are Spearhead Insurgent artillery replied with light but effective fire on the southern front, where a dozen Russian tanks formed the spearhead of the sudden Loyalist attack. One bomb exploded on a tank which burst into flames. Two caterpillar tractors clattered out from government lines and hauled back the blazing tank, before rebels could capture it.

The occupants were burned beyond recognition. Another tank was disabled and was brought back under a rain of rebel shelling. A third tank, disabled on the Madrid front near Co-bertera. was captured, bringing the total of government tanks seized by rebels during the war to more than 70. Two months ago.

Gen. Francisco Franco's advancing rebel columns occupied Clinico hospital, costly medical center built by King Alfonso to fight cancer. Since then rebel machinegun nests have cracked with deadly effect on every Loyalist effort to dislodge them and split the rebel line around the city. Conserve Strength Rebels did not reply to the loyalist fire at University City, apparently conserving their strength for the expected smash at the hospital by infantrymen under cover of long-range government guns. Government forces also continued to harass rebel positions at Cara-banchel in a movement to drive out insurgent machinegun nests in houses and buildings.

Governors Hit WPA Slashes (Continued From Page One) which we respectfully submit to you for your consideration in the preparation of your program of unemployment relief and its submission to the congress. Six Points Outlined "Some of these points are as follows: 1.

In accordance with the policy advocated by you in 1933 the federal government should offer work relief and ether forms of employment to all the needy employables. "2. We believe that WPA workers should not be removed from the rolls until they can absorbed in private industry. "3. When WPA workers are removed they should be replaced by other needy employables taken from the 'relief rolls.

"4. In order to encourage WPA workers to accept private employment, procedure should be simplified to assure M'm- ployment on WPA rolls when private employment of them -ceases. "5. The cost cf relief to employables cannot be born by local units of government and we protest against the imposition of this burden onto the states -and local units of government. "6.

It is important for the federal and state governments to co-operate in a program that will encourage industry to provide additional opportunities Ibr private employment for those on WPA and state relief rolls as far as possible. "We would very much like at the earliest opportunity to confer with you. We believe that the presentation of our views will be mutually nt-iUiui uctciuyiuj; an milCient and sound program which will help to solve this stupendous problem in manner that will be equitable to the states as well as to the fed. era! government. May we ask you to arrange a conference with us at your early convenience.

Big Employment Record Claimed WASHINGTON, Feb. 28. (AP) The Public Works Administration'1 passed its 45th month of existence today with the claim of having created more than 7,000,000,000 man-hours of employment. PWA statisticians arrived at this figure on the basis of the ratio that 25 men are employed away from the site of construction for every 10 at the site, and that an additional 20 men are given employment in manu facturing goods necessary for the 35. Congress has been asked to extend the life of the administration 21 more months from June 30 next.

Priests of the Gyokuzo Buddhist temple, where the geisha are "sitting down," appear to be siding with the girls in the belief they have been exploited by their em- nlnwli. Leaders of the strike repeated emphtatically their declaration they will not return to work until their right to join a guild or tneir own is recognized. Proletarians Pledge Aid They added they have no worries about supplies, since friends and patrons are sending them plenty of food, rice, wine and money. Moreover their movement gained approval of the Japan labor front today when three representatives of the Shakai Taishuto, largest proletarian party, called at the mountain-tep temple, expressed thorough approval of the strike and urged the girls to keep it up until they succeed.

They assured the geisha their party would extend all possible assistance, economic, moral or other. Mystery Slaying Still Is Unsolved (Continued From Page One) will be to question Mrs. Pearson Monday morning." Mrs. Pearson was not at the inquest. She lay in a Riverside hospital.

Lynch made two attempts to quiz her, but she was too hysterical to tell a coherent story of the events leading up to the shooting. Alfred Blackman, colored butler in the Pearson menage, told the jurors that the Pearsons returned to their home about 9 o'clock in the evening after a gay round of drinking at the desert resort's pubs. They were both drunk, he said. The first time he went to their bedroom, Blackman said, Pearson was lying on the bed, "drunk or asleep." The second time, he continued, the writer was in the same position and Mrs. Pearson lay on the floor with the telephone in her hand, trying to get a doctor.

He left and returned a third time, said the servant, and found Pearson on the floor, sprawled beside his wife who was Bobbing hysterically, "I tried to pull Mr. Pearson's body," Blackman testified. "It was cold. I shivered when I touched it" Blackman testified that occasion ally when his employer would get intoxicated he would get his gun and that Mrs. Pearson would take it away from him.

Sheriff Carl Ray burn has ex pressed belief that Pearson was accidentally shot during such an episode. 0 Station K0Y Joins Chain (Continued From Page One) mate," Mr. Butler said.

S. Strike Stand Is Told (Continued From Page One) cept in the few instances where interstate commerce is clearly defined as, for example, in the transportation business. There is a ground on which the federal government might intervene if it desired. That is where a con spiracy is hatched across state lines to get a group of workman to inter-fr with the Drocesses of produc tion The Sunreme Court of the United States, in the famous Coro-nado case, has held that any physical acts nf interference with the actual production or shipment of goods could be regarded as a conspiracy in restraint of trade. But such a conspiracy is difficult to prove, as is also the purpose of the strike.

The workmen would contend that their pur pose is not to prevent shipment into interstate commerce, but to prevent other workmen from taking their jobs. Whether such a contention would be accepted by a court is something else. It is doubtful if any such case would ever be brought by the federal authorities. This is because the entire federal government at the moment is dominated by the view that labor warfare is justified and that neither the courts nor the federal department of justice should be used to interfere even remotely with the right to strike. For many years, labor unions have enjoyed exemption under the federal laws from being prosecuted for acts which would amount to monopoly 11 practiced by corporations.

This exemption is due, of course, to the political power of the labor groups. Nor is there much sympathy with the view so often expressed by citi zens that the federal government should take cognizance of the sit-down strikes and put them down. The administration points to the fact that employers uniformly have objected to the Wagner labor rela tions act on the ground that federal governmen had no authority in labor disputes. Fought By Injunction The Wagner act itself has been fought by the injunction process, and the Supreme Court of the United States has heard argument but has not yet rendered its opinion on the validity of the statute. The general guess among well-informed lawyers is that the Supreme court will decide all the various cases at about the same time and that it will uphold the law where the company in question is clearly engaged in in terstate commerce and iJ-at it will hold the act inoperative so far as a company engaged in local produc tion is concerned.

While the whole series of strike episodes is causing widespread eco nomic loss and undoubtedly is Inter rupting the march of recovery, the administration tends to the view that all this is part of the inevitable growing pains of a nation in the midst of a social reform program. British Experience Cited It is often pointed out here that, in ureat much the same experience was encountered and that ultimately a degree of control or supervision over labor union activities was forced upon the government. Such a reaction comes, however, only after labor troubles become acute and the public becomes conscious Vf the ill effects of certain aspects of labor wars. Thus it waw a general strike in England which brought parliament to ivw the present industrial disputes which covers a certain amount government supervision of labor unions. The disposition here is to believe that the labor troubles will continue during the remainder of 1937 in more or less sporadic form and that perhaps the struggle will become even more far-reaching as sit-down strikes and other labor' disputes are carried into the larger industries.

(AP)-, Police efforts to end the sit-down strike of 300 Osaka geisha, or girl entertainers, failed today. For the third day the gaily-clad girls remained perched in the Budd hist temple they have occupied on a mountain near this industrial metropolis.

They obviously were enjoying themselves and in no hur ry to go back to the gay quarters from which they walked out Friday. To police agents who climbed the mountain to urge them to end their unique strike the geisha general staff explained that the girls were catching up en their long-neglected prayers and masses, net to mention sleep. They scornfully rejected pleas that they return to soothe the worries of Osaka's tired business men. Those worries, especially those of the business men who operate geisha houses and fashionable res taurants, deepened with indications the walkout was likely to be joined by more of Osaka 2,000 geisha or even spread to the gay worlds of other big Japanese cities. Newspapers reported all Japan Lese Majeste Causes Strike TOKYO.

Feb. 28. (AP) Mer chant marine officers not seamen harging their employers with lack of respect for the emperor, began a strike today which may in terfere with Japan's far-flung ship ping lines. It began at Yokohama with of ficers employed by the Nippon Yusen Kaisha (Japan Mail Ship Company) and' threatened immediate tying up of several units of that concern's worldwide services. The firm is the largest Japanese shipping company.

Unique Conflicts With 300 geisha engaged in a sit- down strike in a Buddhist temple on a mountain top near Osaka, Japan was confronted by two unique labor conflicts. Just as the liner Katort' Maru was about to sail from Yokohama for London the chief engineer and 10 other officers walked off, tying up the ship. The officers' union, which claims 500 mail line officers as members, explained the walkout was due to failure of the company, on the occasion of the emperor reviewing the grand fleet off Kobe October 29, 1936, to issue order for the company fleet throughout the world to hoist the rising sun flag in celebration of the vent. The union ordered its members to tie up all line vessels in Yokohama, Kobe and Osaka harbors ana sent a memorial to the directorate demanding: Apologies Demanded 1. That the directors formally acknowledge responsibility for an act of lese majeste last OctoDer zs; 2.

That the directors reorganize the marine bureau of the company on the basis of "Japanism" as its guiding spirit. is the unique blend of religion and patriotism "to which Japanese super-patriots have adhere in recent years). Reports from Osaka said the branch of the officers' union there had decided to join the strike. The president of the company belittled the strike. He asserted that last October 23 the line followed the instructions of the navy ministry.

He said the Katori Maru's sailing had been delayed merely by rain, which delayed loading, and asserted the company's sailing schedules would be carried out.

Although the bullet entered Moreno's forehead and coursed through to the left side, officers said last night his condition was not critical. He is in St, Joseph's hospital. A 21 -year-old colored man, as-sertedly Moreno's assailant, was arrested several hours after the shooting at Seventh avenue and Buckeye road by Allie Heywood and Manuel Lopez, deputies sheriff.
