Sent.

15. flP The League of Nations council committee on the Italo. Ethiopian dispute will complete a peace plan Monday or Tuesday, a well-informed source said tonight, comprising a definite project for collective assistance for Ethiopia. utner sources described Dr. Edouard Benes, president of the League Assembly, and British representatives as voicing pesslmistlo predictions as to the outcome.

The preamble. It was understood. will refer to Italo-Ethioplan memoranda already submitted to the league, while the detailed plan itself will be an amplification of Paris proposals of August 16. (At a meeting In Paris of diplo matic representatives of Britain, France and Italy, the two former nations outlined a plan by which Mussolini could obtain wide economic concessions In Ethiopia In exchange a promise not to go to war. Italy rejected these proposals, asserting concessions would mean nothing unless he were given the right to occupy Ethiopia with military forces).

The new plan will likely contain provisions for an International po lice force, it was learned in official clrcls, but of such a nature that the result would be a strengthening of the Ethiopian police Instead of giving any preponderance of power to the Italians. Power Given In economic and financial fields, Italy would practically be given unlimited scope under the tentative plan drawn up by the African experts, and It probably will arrange for territorial adjustments. Various delegations expressed a belief there will be a movement to have the report of the council committee, on which are representatives of Great Britain, France, Poland, Turkey and Spain, adopted by the council itself as official recommendations to Italy snd Ethiopia under the covenant, Article XV. If this were done, Article XII at the covenant could immediately become effective, and neither Italy nor Ethiopia could resort to war for three months without risking sanc tions under the punitive article of the covenant which characterizes any such war as against all members of the League of Nations. If Italy should reject the coun cil's recommendations, and Ethiopia accept, Italy could never go to war without violating the covenant, if the recommendations were unanimously approved by the council.

Aid Promised From little entente delegations representing the nations of Czecho slovakia, Yugoslavia and Rumania came reports that If Mussolini starts hostilities, some nations will immediately extend material help to Ethiopia, especially throuugh the lifting of arms embargoes. Among many reports circulating In Geneva tonight were: That a movement exists among some delegates to have the assembly send a small deputation to Mus solini to tell him how the league is against any aggression, and to appeal to him to accept a compromise. That some of Mussolini's cabinet members are opposed to his present stand, and the king himself is alarmed. That some powers are planning to ask their ambassadors to leave Rome "on holiday" if war comes. No confirmation of the latter two rumors could be found, despite the fact they were widely circulated.

Delegates to the all-important league assembly attached a growing importance to the American plea to avert a war. They said the call for peace by Secretary of State Cor-dell Hull, following as it did upon the Anglo-French pledge to uphold the league covenant would tend to strengthen the moral opinion of the world against any war. That the Hull appeal has pro- (Contlnned to Page 3, Column 3) WALMSLEY PREDICTS ADMINISTRATION AID WASHINGTON, Sept. 15 (-TV-Mayor T. Semmes Walmsley of New Orleans told reporters this afternoon he had "no doubt that Mr.

Roosevelt and the administration will help those who have been friendly to him In Louisiana." As he boarded an airplane to return to New Orleans after a 24-hour stay in the capital, Walmsley reiterated his denial, however, that his trip here had a political Import The mayor insisted that the sole reason for his trip was tne iaw passed at last week's special session of the Louisiana legislature making it a felony for federal official to pay funds in the state for any purpose not in accordance with the 10th amendment "I don't know what the law means." Walmsley said, "and I don't think it's good constitution-allv. But it might have the effect of 'halting all federal payments in the state, AAA, WAP, relief and every other agency." PARLEY STARTS IN WAGE TRUCE Troubled Districts Are Given Breathing Spell In War STRIKE THREATENED Walkout Call Is Averted At Last Minute By Negotiations WASHINGTON, Sept. 15. (JP) For the sixth time this year, negotiations started off afresh today toward a new wage and hour agreement for the vast Appalachian soft coal fields. A fifth threat of a nationwide bituminous strike was averted temporarily early this morning when John L.

L.ewis, president of the United Mine Workers, agreed to extend the union's present contract until next Sunday midnight The contract would have expired at midnight tonight. Negotiations toward a new one had broken down completely when Edward F. Mc-Grady, assistant secretary of labor, proposed the extension. The union was on the point of sending out the strike call to the 400,000 miners it claims are members. The joint negotiating committee of orjerators and miners met with McGrady for several hours during the day and then recessed until tomorrow without substantial progress toward a new agreement.

Test Sought Closely linked with the fate of the renewed parley was a court test of th administration's coal stabili zation program, scheduled to start tomorrow in the District of Co-lumbia supreme court. Chief Justice A. A. Wheat directed representatives of the government and the Carter Coal company a southern West Virginia firm, to show why he should not enjoin the government from collecting and the company from paying the producers' compliance tax provided by the Guffey coal act to set up i "little NRA" for the bituminous in dustry. James W.

Carter, president or tne company, brought the suit, claiming payment of the tax would ruin the company financially and that the Guffey act was unconstitutional. The justice department was understood to be ready to contend the suit was premature, and to ask its dismissal. None of the machinery for administering the act has yet been set up. Threat Made The strike threat came to an end shortly after midnight after a day packed with as much drama as coal negotiations afford. Marvin Maclntyre, President Roosevelt's secretary, requested the fifth truce, but the miners and operators quarreled over its terms.

The union demanded a retroactive wage clause for any extension, while the operators said Roosevelt wanted just another two-week extension of the present contract. The strike was only 24 hours away when McGrady, fresh from Hyde Park, called In the negotiating committee and, after a strong plea for peace, obtained the exten sion agreement. Lewis said the miners were go ing to "take one more chance" that the negotiations could come to a successful conclusion, In the Interest of stopping industrial warfare. OFFICIALS SCOFFING MEXICAN REBELLION NOGALES, Sept 15. (IP) Telegraphic advices reaching the border from state officials in Her-mosillo, capital of Sonora, last night contained strong denials that a plot to overthrow the Mexican govern ment was afoot.

In a telegram to the Nogales Herald Ramon Ramos, governor of Sonora, said current rumors of uprisings In his state were without foundation. Published reports yesterday said a nation-wide revolt was scheduled to break out in the southern republic the morning of Sept. 17.

These reports were firmly denied by officials at Magdalena and Her- mosillo.

SPENDING PLAN IN GOVERNMENT New Demands for Money Seen As Probable In January ECONOMIES OUGHT Hill Sees Sentiment For Curtailment Growing In Congress WASHINGTON, Sept. 15. (JP) New demands for slash In next year's federal spending came today from two members of congress who help figure out taxes to pay the bills.

senator King ranking majority member of the senate finance committee, was pessimistic over prospects for reduction. Representative Hill chairman of the ways and means sub-ccommittee which wrote the recent tax bill, was more hopeful. Both agreed with Chairman Buchanan of the house appropriations committee that the budget should be brought into closer balance with expenditures. Spending Spree "I agree with Mr. Buchanan," said King, "but we are still on a spending spree, and when we meet In January, there are going to be all kinds of demands for spending the bonus, thee Bankhead farm tenant bill, and others to exceed even the outlay of last session." Hill, however, Insisted that there is "quite a sentiment" among mem bers of congress to "get down to a more economical basis." He added: "The fact that the President is putting the emergency bureaus un der the budget would Indicate a drawing in of horns.

I think the tendency from now on is to trim down." King said he thought Secretary Morgenthau was too optimistic In his recent announcement that current expenditures so far are well within the budget estimate of Mr. Roosevelt. "When we are spending about one-third of every dollar earned for federal, state and local government," King said, "it would seern there would be a taxpayers' strike and demands of officials for a reduction. Too Much Spending There has been too much borrowing by states and all, and the easy way they have been getting money from that $3,000,000,000 and this $4,000,000,000 (PWA and works relief funds) has been encouragement for them to spend." King, who has voted against many appropriation bills because of what he felt were unjustifiably large allowances for government undertakings, said he was going to fight next session for reduced taxes and appropriations. Hill said he believed that If emergency expenditures could be stopped, the budget would be balanced with the new tax law, figured to raise $250,000,000 a year under present conditions and from $300,000,000 to $400,000,000 under "normal" ARIZONA MAN HURT IN AUTO ACCIDENT SAN ANTONIO, Sept.

ficial Soviet press today called Reichsfuehrer Hitler's Nurnberg assembly a "gigantic mobilization test" In preparation for a war against Soviet Russia. The newspaper, Pravda called it "a hysterical anti-Soviet meeting. Such headlines as "The Nurnberg Bazaar" and "The Nurnberg Hot Air Circus" led the editorial com ment here. a BOSTON, Sept. 15.

(Pt death of Senator Huey P. Long, Secretary of Treasury Henry Morgenthau, Jr, said today, would have no effect on the government's investigation of alleged tax evasion by Louisiana politicians. Interviewed as he stepped ashore for a few minutes from the Italian liner Conte Grande, en route from New York to Portugal and Spain, the treasury head, discussing the tax investigation in Long's state asserted: "We dont start any tax cases for political purposes and we don't stop them for the same JURY TO CHECK DEATHOFLONG Official Story Prepared For Presentation To Coroner's Body BATON ROUGE, Sept. 15 (IP) The unfinished official story of the assassination of Senator Huey Long was being assembled today for a coroner's Jury. District Attorney Fred Odom an nounced that, through a long list of witnesses called to testify tomorrow at a thrice-postponed inquest into the death of Long's as sassin, he hoped to unfold facts about the senator's killing.

The assassin, Dr. Carl Austin Weiss, 30, Baton Rouge eye spe cialist, was shot to death by Long bodyguards a moment after the senator was shot here last Sunday night Some of Longs closest friends have charged that there was a plot to kill the senator and that Dr. Weiss drew the "short straw" in a lottery to select the executioner. This, said Odom, will be investigated thoroughly. Dr.

Weiss parents and his widow have declared a law passed by the legislature even while Long was dying, which would "gerrymander" his father-in-law out of his judgeship, was the motive for the slaying. The law would change the district In which Judge B. H. Pavy presides so as possibly to oust him from of fice. Judge Pavy's parishes, now anti-Long, would be Juggled to put him out in a pro-Long district where he probably would be defeated for re-election.

Members of the Weiss family planned to testify In an effort to prove there was no conspiracy to remove the senator and his asso ciates from the political scene. The Long organization Is begin nlng to show signs of splitting into conservative and liberal factions. Wade O. Martin, public service commissioner, and Speaker Allen Ellender of the house, head tne con servative group. On the other side are Lieutenant Governor James A.

Noe and Judge Fournet. Some of the former close asso ciates of Long oppose a move to run his younger brother, Earl Long, for lieutenant governor in the next election, and favor the elimination of the Long name, a repeal of some of the Long-Inspired dictatorial laws and a turn away from an all-ruling power. Others wish to hold the Long tra dition of politics. The showdown between the op posing forces is expected this week. ROOSEVELT CONFERS ABOUT PHONE FIRM HYDE PARK.

N. Sept. 15. President Roosevelt conferred aeain today with Ferdinand Pecora, New York supreme court justice, on the possibility of Pecora's di recting the investigation of the American Telephone and Telegraph company ordered by the senate, but a decision was again deferred. Pecora indicated he intended to stand for renomination and re-1 election this fall.

There is no doubt of Democratic support. Likewise there is no doubt of a keen interest by Pecora in the telephone inquiry about to be started. Roosevelt met this afternoon with the vestrymen of the St James Episcopal church in which he is a senior warden. 'Discussion was on dedication of a tablet to the first settlers of Hyde Park next Sunday. Aapparently watching closely the troubled European situation and the negotiations over wage scale in the mining industry, the President withheld comment on both.

(JP) Adolf Hitler's reichstag, stung by the strictures of a New York magistrate against the Nazi emblem, tonight pronounced the swastika to be the reich's sole flag, hurled defiance to Jews throughout the world and limited German citizen ship to members of the Germanic race. The specially-summoned lawmak ers acted after their fuehrer. In a fiery mood, had opened the reichs tag session with a bitter attack on Lithuanians for their alleged treatment of Germans of the Memel territory, and called upon the solons to approve three new laws. Der fuehrer and his legislators permitted Jews to continue as German subjects, but forbade them to fly any flag save the blue and white Zionist emblem. Hitler and the reichstag also forbade intermarriage between Aryans and non-Aryans, and provided for punishment for sexual relations between the two.

They also forbade Jews to engage Aryan domestic servants under the age of 45 years. Charges Made Hitler charged Lithuania with resnonsibility for the events in Me- meL which, he said, contained the seeds of trouble. Then he made known his refusal to allow Ger-manv to be drawn into any Inter national controversy in which she Is not directly Involved.

(IP) A system of three-man regional agencies in 21 cities to handle labor complaints under the Wagner act was announced today by the new national labor relations board.

The new set-up discards regional Inhnr hoards as courts of original jurisdiction in handling collective bargaining cases. Outlining its plans for procedure In cases charging violations of the act, intended to guarantee labor's right to bargain collectively with employers, the board said the regional agencies will consist of a director, trial examiner and an attorney. The offices will be maintained in Boston, New York, Pittsburgh, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Atlanta, New Orleans, Detroit, Cleveland, Cincinnati, Chicago, Milwaukee, Minneapolis, St. Louis, Kansas City, Fort Worth, Los Angeles San Francisco, Seattle, Indianapolis ana tmriaio. After an employee or a union files violation complaint the regional director is to investigate.

If he finds the complaint justified, he Is to make a formal complaint In the name of the board. The trial examiner then Is to take testimony, with the regional attorney representing the regional director at the hearing. The examiner will recommend either that the employer be cleared or that he be ordered to "cease and desist" from the practice which the employe or the union charged. Either side may appeal from the examiner's recommendation to the national board, with an opportunity for argument on the testimony be fore the national board. Any employer appeal from the national board's order will go to a circuit court of appeals.

Regional directors are to hold hearings on petitidhs for elections to determine which of several labor organizations represents a majority of the employes in a plant. The national board will consider the testi mony and determine whether elec tions should be held, and appoint agents to conduct elections. The board primary responsibil ity under the act Is to see that collective bargaining rights are guarded against restraints and interference," the board's statement said. The specific practices held un fair, and the only ones which can be matters of complaint may be summarized as follows: Interference with the guaranteed rights of self-organization and col lective bargaining. Employer domination of a com pany union (although company unions free from such domination are legal under the act).

Whole regiments, landing from the skies, succeeded In capturing the airdrome but later came to theoretical grief. When they used the airdrome as a base from which to advance overland to attack the main "enemy" forces from the rear. they were met by a quickly mobilized defense force which, with the aid of tanks and armored trains, "annihilated" them. The sky army dropped from squadrons of big transport airplanes, each of which carried 30 jumpers. Gripping their rifles and sub-machine guns, the soldiers leaped one after another, pulled their ripcords and floated slowly to land.

The landing was effected in day light and was caught by a battery of cameras. One of the pictures showed 358 jumpers In the air at once.

PACKERS FACING TRUSTCHARGES Wallace Wilfllear Oral Arguments In Case Of 10 Firms WASHINGTON. Sept 15.

(IP) Charged with combining to control retail meat prices from 1927 to 1933, ten major packing companies will be called upon tomorrow to an swer to Secretary Wallace. Officials said these final oral arguments on accusations Wallace made in 1934 had no connection with current high prices or with the tremendous Increase in retail meat prices since 1933. But they hinted that the recent burden on the housewife's budget might be discussed. The defendants are: Armour and company, Chicago; Abraham, Brothers Packing company, Tennessee: Cudahy Packing company; Jacob Dold Packing company; John Morrell and company; Memphis Packing company; Swift and company; Wilson and company; Morris and company and St. Louis Independent Packing company.

They were charged specifically with violating the packers and stockyards act by combining to control retail meat prices, to apportion sales in commerce and to keep out competition. Department officials said Wallace could issue cease and desist orders if the arguments tomorrow led him to believe the companies were guilty of creating a monopoly, The companies have the right of appeal through a three-judge stat utory court in any state where their home offices are located. A second appeal could be made directly to the supreme court. The complaint, filed February 14, 1934, charged that the packers gave each other information on prices at which they would sell meats and meat food products. This practice, the complaint said, was designed to enable them to give "unreasonable preferences and advantages to certain producers of meats and meat products; to give preferences to certain localities; to discriminate unjustly between certain persons; to force competitors out of business, and to manipulate prices and apportion sales in commerce." The combination, the complaint said, occurred from 1927 through 1933, in several stated including Tennessee, Mississippi, Alabama, Arkansas, and Texas.
