It was reported Monsignor Orsenigo arraanged for Secretary of State Hans von Mackensen to confer with II Duce in Munich, where the Italian dictator is scheduled to review 120,000 black-shirted Slorm Troopers. Reports from Rome said Italian officials attributed the apparent slackening of Reich-Vatican tension to II Duce's forthcoming visit. Mussolini, they indicated, could not afford to visit Germany if there were poesibllitiee of an intensification of the Nazi opposition to the Catholio Church, inasmuch as he recognizes Catholicism at his official, Fascist religion.

McDonald of Texas sup Washington (INS) Federal narcotics officials yesterday placed finishing touches on drastic regulations which will be used to crush the nationwide traffic in illicit marijuana. Under an act passed by Congress, the federal government has been given broad powers in regulating movements in this drug and its derivatives. According to Acting Narcotics Commissioner W. 9. Wood, regulations probably will be completed next week, "The new legislation gives us the same powers to stamp out illegal traffic in Marijuana as we have under the Harrison Narcotics Act which provides for federal regula-' tion of opium and other drugs," Wood explained.

Under the Marijuana Act, physicians, druggists, Importers and manufacturers are subjected to license and must make regular reports to the narcotics bureau.

"They surround me, they hang from my arms, they wear my orchids and they clutter my guest rooms; but pjsitively they do not annoy me." "Come down if you want to. Glad to have you.
