Saar Basin territory, Jan. 15 (Tuesday) A crushing German victory lor return of the Saar to the fatherland was assured today as dawn approached and the count neared completion. As the jubilant Nazis saw their most extravagant boasts materialize with a 90 per cent pro-German plebiscite vote, a terrorized opposition, fearful of the vengeance, prepared to evacuate when the departure of the foreign troops removes official protection. At 4 a. seventy per cent of the ballots had been counted and the Nazi pluralities mounted.

It appeared from the counting room balcony that only occasionally was found a ballet not marked for the return to the Reich. Stimulation of suspense was entirely lacking. Fear Trouble In Area Today In the Wartburg auditorium tootles rumors grew. The basis of most of them was a report that weapons had been taken from anti-Nazi policemen as a precaution against trouble when the joy of the populace at the official word of victory goes out of bounds. View of "the tabulation from the gallery indicated that the German border cities averaged 95 to 96 per for the homeland, while industrial districts such as Nuen-k ire hen and Sulzbach averaged somewhat lower.

by The Asm- ciated Press BERLIN. Jan. 14 Germany ha-s perfected every detail to enable the reincorporation of the Saar Valley into Der Fuehrer's Reich within a month. Minister of the Interior Wil-helm Frick said today. Frick declared a month would be more than the necessary time to accomplish the technical and administrative tasks involved.

Frick said the Reich will execute a far-flung plan for job creation. He declared also "there will be no difficulty about absorbing Saar coal." From the administrative point of view the Reich-minister declared: "the Saar will remain a separate administrative entity within the Reich. Only later, when the Reich has been re-districted into 'gaue' or provinces will the Saar be incorporated into one of these gaue. 'WELL LAID ON' EDICT SPECIFIED IN LASH SENTENCE Clause in Law Resurrected in Drive Against Habitual Offenders Layton Imposes Three Years, Whipping Upon Fiorenti; Father, Son Before Court Twenty lashes "well laid on!" This part of the ancient Delaware statute contained in the revised code of the laws of Delaware pertaining to corporal punishment for certain crimes, was invoked by the Chief Justice Daniel J. Layton in General Sessions Court yesterday.

Bernardo Fiorenti of this city with a long record of crime behind him, was before the Court for sentence after having been convicted by a jury of breaking and entering. The Chief Justice, after stressing the seriousnes of Fiorenti's crime and his long criminal record little douM of his guilt existed in the court's mind. He then pronounc ed sentence of three years imprisonment in the New Castle County Workhouse and 20 lashes, to be given next Saturday directing that attention of Workhouse officials be directed to the Delaware statute) covering such crimes and sentences requiring that the said lashes "shall be well laid This wording of the statute is in eorporated in Chapter 4836. Section 31. of the Revised Code of Delaware, which states: "The punishment of whipping shall be inflicted publicly on bare back well laid on Broke Into Garage Fiorenti's crime was that of breaking and entering a garage at 511 Walnut street last Summer with the intention of stealing a motor car.

The baby died at 5.30 o'clock and the mother at 9.30. The fire destroyed the Boulden home, a one-story frame bungalow, with a loss of about $1000. Mrs. Boulden left the baby in the kitchen of the home yesterday and went to the home of her next-door neighbor on an errand. A short time later she saw smoke coming from the house and ran home.

As she entered the door she was greeted with a blast of smoke and flame. Disregarding this, the young mother ran in and picked up the child whose clothing was in flames. Pressing the child to her, setting her own clothing afire, she started for the door. Blinded by smoke and flame ehe almost collapsed as with her clothing burned from her body she gained the door where neighbors hurried to her aid. Both the mother and child were taken to the Flower.

Hospital in Newark and then hurried to this city. High Wind Fans Flames Two theories for the fire have been advanced. One that a brand from a wood-burning stove fell into a box nearby and the other was that the tank of an oil stove ex ploded throwing the blazing oil over the room. The fire burned fiercely and was fazmed by the high wind. The house was rapidly consumed and when firemen arrived they were unable to subdue the flames.

David Boulden, husband and father xl the fixe victims, was at his work in a plant in Chester but hurried home on being of the fire. Mrs. Boulden was the daughter of George Moore, a contractor, who also lives- in Mooresville where he built a number of houses and from whom the section gets its name. The burned house was at the end of a row of similar dwellings. That the high wind was blowing away from these houses is all that saved them from destruction, firemen said.

LAW TO BAN GENERAL STRIKES Also Opposes Bill to Bar Company Union, Plan to Promote Unionizing Insists on Preserving Freedom of Contract Between Employes and Employers WASHINGTON, Jan. 13 (AP) The National Association of Manufacturers intends to propose legislation this Winter to ban general and sympathetic strikes. Association officials announced this plan tonight along with their opposition to both the proposed Wagner labor disputes bill and suggested legislation to unionize industry by placing it under a labor law similar to the Railway Labor Act. The bill the association has in mind would be similar to the British Trades Disputes Act of 1927. The British Act, as analyzed by the association, would make strikes or lockouts illegal "if the object is other than in furtherance of a trade dispute in the industry in which the strikers or employers locking out are engaged." or if they were "designed to coerce the government directly or by inflicting hardship on the community." Against Forced Unionization The suggestion to prcmcte unionization by a law similar to the Railway Act came from one group of President Roosevelt's principal labor advisers.

Senator Wagner's bill, a separate proposal, would outlaw company unions, provide "majority rule," for collective bargaining, and continue the present Labor Relation Board set-up.

N. Jan. 11 (APi A pretty blond pajama model accused Bruno Mauptmann of shadowing Dr. John P. Condon, the "Jafsie" of the Lindbergh baby ransom hoax, as the carpenter's prosecutors to shield the identity of three surprise witnesses from Europe.

The model, chic and stately Hilde-garde Olga Alexander, enlivened a trial session otherwise devoted to additional expert testimony accusing Hauptmann as the man who wrote the fourteen ransom notes. A friend of Dr. Condon's for twelve years, she took the stand at Hauptmann's trial for the murder of the Lindbergh baby to say she saw "Jafsie" in a Bronx telegraph office in March of 1932, nearly a month before Dr. Condon paid the $50,000 ransom, and that another man was watching him "very significantly." Says Man Was Hauptmann "I say the man was Bruno Rich- ard Hauptmann," she declared firmly- A faint flush stole over the car- center's pallid face. His wife, the plump Anna, turned wiiue.

Presumably the incident occurred after Jafsie's" unsolicited attempt to contact the kidnaper, although the exact date was net brought out in the testimony. Pro: tutors indicated tonight they would produce a telegram that Dr. Condon allegedly was sending to Col. Lindbergh afc the time. New Jersey authorities, meanwhile, took careful steps to guard the names of the three persons who will arrive in New York tomorrow aboard the liner He De France, in the comoanv of Detective Arthur Johnscn of tha New York police.

Thsy will be taken from the liner secretly aboard a government cutter to an unannounced destination to await their turn to testify. (German reports have indicated one of the three might be Hanna Fisch, sister of the lat Isador from whom Hauptmann says he got the ransom bills with which he was caught). "Relatives of Somebody" General David T. Wil-entz of New Jersey said merely that iMe of the witnesses were "relatives of soms'ocdy." Mi-s Alexander, who arched her fashionable eyebrows petulantly at the barbed tjufries of Edward J. Reilly, chief of Hauptmann 's de fense, provided a bright interlude in the testimony of two handwriting experts who again called Hauptmann the ransom note writer.

These fourteen notes, the first one left on the windowsill of baby Lindbergh's nursery when he was stolen and slain on March 1, 1932, cos; Col. Charles A. Lindbergh "Jafsie" says he paid the money to Hauptmann in St. Raymond's cemetery, a month and a day after the kidnaping. Osborn's Testimony Bolstered Tcday the word of Albert S.

John H. Wigglesworth. president of the Levy Court, said this is the most likely looking solution in view of the fact Levy Court will refuse to raise the general property taxes. The sales tax, he pointed out, is operating successfully in New York, where it has been found to pro duce adequate revenue with a minimum of puolic resentment.

It is also in effect in a number of other sections, Mr. Wigglesworth said. The Levy Court, said Mr. Wigglesworth. is opposed to taxes that would work an additionai hardship on owners of real estate and.
