BLUE EAGLE IS Trains Run on Schedule, Light and Power Plants Operate Smoothly and Steadily A Distinct Victory for Organized Labor is Claimed Washington W.

J. Hoff, act-ing chief of the NRA compliance board, said today the national labor board, on the basis of the strike settlement agreement between workers and the Milwaukee Electric Railway and Light company, had rcommended restoration of the Blue Eagle taken from the company June 8 Hoff said the compliance board would consider the recommendation Monday. The Blue Eagle was surrendered by the company on the demand of Administrator Hugh S. Johnson on the basis of findings of a specially appointed tribunal that the company had violated labor sections of the recovery act. The strike, called earlier this week, was settled last night through the mediation efforts of the national labor board.

Terms of the settlement were transmitted to the board this morning by Maj. John D. Moore, technical advisor, and Dr. Francis J. Haas, member of the board who participated In the settlement.

STILL STUNNED Milwaukee JP) Milwaukee returned to placid normalcy today, still stunned, however, by the three nights of terrorism which ended last right with a peaceful settlement of the strike of union employes of the Milwaukee Electric Eailway and Light company. Streetcars and interurban trains ran on schedule. Light and power plants operated smoothly and steadily. Officials of the company hurried to estimate the amount of their losses and repair property damaged by rioting, dynamiting and incendiarism. One life was lost during one of many sieges on company property.

At the company's generating plants and barns, machines whirred again and employes passed through pates unnoticed, the bands of pickets having dispersed. The agreement reached last night nas heralded by organized labor as a distinct victory.

Most of the orlg inal demands for which the strike was called last Tuesday were met. The main terms of the 11-point pact accepted Jubiliantly by members of the 'three striking unions here last night were: Return of all strikers to the positions they held when the walkout became effective. fCnnfinued on Pm 2.

If Al LAND Berlin (U.Ri With crushing severity reminiscent of the French reign of terror, Chancellor Adolf Hitler's government tonight curbed an incipient revolution and sum marily executed seven of its leaders. (By Louis P. Lochncr. Associated Press Foreign Staff.) (Copyright, 1934, by the, Associated Berlin Chancellor Adolf Hitler today crushed a stillborn revolution.

Capt. Ernst Roehm, long his closest friend and his trusted leader of the nazi storm troops, committed suicide when Hitler had him arrested as a conspirator. Kurt von Schleicher, Hitler's predecessor as chancellor of Germany, was killed by police when he resisted arrest as a conspirator. TWO EXTREMES. Roehm was regarded as the mast extreme leader of the radical nazis; von Schleicher was the extreme reactionary who favored the restoration of the monarchy to Germany Vice Chancellor Franz von Papen, the man who two weeks ago warned Hitler that a second revolution led by extremists was impending, was taken into "protective custody" but soon released.

The reichswehr the national army was ordered to be in readiness throughout Germany. Reichswehr soldiers, armed with machine guns, marched down the great boulevard, Unter-Den-Linden, in the heart of the nation's- capital. The soldiers reinforced heavy details of police who were scattered throughout the city, wearing steel helmets and armed with rifles. Besides Roehm, a number of other storm troop leaders were dead within a few hours of the time when Hitler struck. Some of them committed suicide; some of them were killed- resisting arrest.

AS CONSPIRATOR. The nazi party announced that Roehm was arrested because he was a conspirator, in league not only with von Schleicher, but with "a foreign power" and was, furthermore, of such an immoral character that he brought discredit upon the nazi movement. The announcement said that when Roehm and other leaders were arrested under Hitler's personal direction, these leaders were found engaged in "a spectacle which was so sad morally that every trace of pity must needs vanish." Not only was Roehm thrown out to die but Capt. Karl Ernst, leader of the storm troops at Berlin, was summarily disposed. Hitler at once appointed as his new commander of the storm troops Victor Lutze who issued this appeal: "Storm troop comrades and leaders and men I "Dr.

Fucher (Hitler) has called me to his side as chief of staff. The confidence in me thereby must ana will be justified by myself through unbounded fidelity to the leader and measureless devotion to national socialism and thereby to our people." Among the storm troop leaders who were shot dead while resisting arrest, was Edmund Hcines.
