The troops, sent from Vienna across the Semmering Alps into Styria province, occupied all strategic points in and around Graz and the city of 153,000 population was under 'virtual martial law although civilian authorities remained nominally in control. Machine guns, with a sprinkling of motorized light artillery, were set up behind barricades at main street intersections and at bridges across the Mur river, turning back bands of peasants attempting to reach the city. The peasants offered no resistance to the warlike display when told to return to their villages. The government had ordered ail peasants kept from the cily, for fear of a major outbreak of Nazi disorders.

Efforts to determine the strength of the troop, reinforcements occupying Graz were unavailing. The tension was aggravated by speculation as to whether Hitler would intercede and instruct the Styrian Nazis to cease their hostile demonstrations against the government. Schuschnigg, in his speech to the Diet, announced that Der Fuehrer was pledged to restrain any attempts at "Nazifica- tion" Austria and consented to the outlawing ot the Austrian Nazis.

While Hitler, to all appearances was taking no role in the rising tension his Nazi followers in Germany asserted their Austrian comrades would "meet force with force" if other Austrian political groups sought to prevent the spread of Nazism. Al! Graz, including some public officials, appeared tonight to be openly defying Schuschnigg's nationwide police orders against demonstrations and propaganda.

Huge Crowd Greets Six Army Planes Goodwill Squadron Averages Better Than 204 Miles Per Hop.r Soil Act Altered WASHINGTON---The agricultural adjustment administration last night streamlined the original soil conservation act to harmonize it with the recently-enacted crop control measure. Assistant AAA Administrator J. B.

Hutson announced seven major changes in the original soil conservation set-up to bring it into line with the new "ever normal" granary measure. The "'changes, said, would consolidate administration of the program, broaden its scope and hold crop production in line through acreage allotments of soil-depleting commrdities. The changes provide: 1. Wheat is added to the list of soil-depleting crops under the new program with special acreage allotments ou farms producing normally above 100 bushels annually. 2.

Establishment oC a 12 cents per bushel benefit payment rate on wheat to farmers cooperating in tbe program by holding their production i i allotments. 3. Revision of sime of the original rates for benefit payments to cooperating farmers as specified in the new law. 4. Slight revision of some ot the national acreage allotments of soil-depleting crops announced last September under the original program.

The combined new allotments would range between ,275,000,000 and 290,000,000 acres as against the previous tt 288,000,000 acres. 5. Classification of farms into two groups. One corsists of those in areas producing surpluses of food and feed crops in normal yuars. The other embraces those with deficits.

6. Regulations to carry out dairy provisions, increasing benefit payment scales to small farmers and permitting cooperating farmers to assign their payments as security for loans to plant their 1938 crops. These provisions were contained in the new act. 7. Establishment of a national goal of acres of land to be restored to fertility.

The land is subject to erosion and should be planted in grass and other conservation crops. It the first statement of a definite goal although restoration was a general policy of the original program.

Hoker Succumbs to Illness WASHINGTON (UP) The war department has completed mo hllizatlon plans under which 1,230, 000 troops could be placed in the field within lour months, Ythlle private industry would swing Into Immediate action to supply guns, munitions, food, clothing and other necessary war paraphennlia, II was learned last night.

The were drawn br the nrmy general staff and are bnscd on years of study of -war-time strategy, particularly that developed after the United States Tfas drawn Into tlie World war. Sped: fie details are being frnarded care, fully to prevent "leaks" to foreign powers. The program em'n-aces 10,000 industrial plants which have secret agreements with the department and which overnight can 'be transformed into important supply depots. They were selected from among 20,000 plants which were canvassed to determine what speci tie tasks they could perform, iu event of war. Two methods of recruiting troops are included in the plan- One provides universal conscription.

The other calls for creation of citizens', committees which, in co-operation with 16,000 American Lesion posts, would campaign for volunteers. While these recruits were being enlisted the war department would thrust 300,000 regular army and reserve forces into the field as shock troops. Further calls on both units can boost the total to 600,000 in 30 days, and, with the new recruits, to 1,230,000 within four months. The plan does not contemplate government operation of the industrial plants. Military officials arc said Lo feel that private operation under federal supervision is more efficient because there would be less chance a break-down in the economic structure.

This difficulty arose during the World war, with disastrous effects on some supplies. In addition to what the mobilization plan calls for, Assistant Secretary of War Louis Johnson advocated program that would keep a six months supply of reserve equipment on hand at all times.

Women In Love" CHAPTER XXVI Ann did not see Mr. Herman Weiss that fateful afternoon. For disaster had hit the house of Delafield, with the likelihoivl of reverberations much farther-reaching than the accusations of graft- taking to be levelled at the youngest daughter.

While Brands Selz was closeted with the store-owner, pourine out her venom, Ann had received a frantic telephone call in her department from Claire's best friend, Carol Ditmar. "For land's sake, Ann, come home at once! There's a detective in the and Claire's going to be taken in front of the district-attorney!" Telling her assistant to carry on that Ann leaped inta a promising the driver, an extra tip if he could reach the house between Lexington and Third'Avenue in record time. He did so. White-faced, Ann raced up the steps of the old brownstone building and let herself into the apartment. The sound of half-muffled sobbing smote her ears.

Lollie? It would kill her mother if disgrace came to the family! Or was it Claire For a long time she had dreaded while she anticipated calamity to her eldest sister, with her mania for contract, her mad passion to win. At the turn of the key in the lock, Carol Ditmar came out into the little entrance lobby, ordered Ann into the nearest bedroom---which Lollie's--closed the door. "If she'd only told me she wanted noney I'd have got it for her some- low! But it's too late now! She'll ret a sentence!" Carol announced iramatically. "What's happened?" In the midst her own shock and terror, it was amazingly borne in on Ann that Claire's best friend was revelling in icr downfall, or something very ike it. It was horrible.

"She's done something terrible! Vhy, there was a case in the papers imilar, only a week or so ago, and he man got from ten to twenty Of course he'd spent the nsurance money on the jewelry, fortunately Claire hasn't, for hadn't got it--" Ann gripped her wrist so hard hat Carol stopped short. "For leaven's sake, cut it out, and get to point!" snapped Ann. "Let go! You're hurting! It you who should take that at- it's who have a right to be annoyed! Dragging me into a criminal case, hauling me up before a jury! Herbert'll be furi- DUS!" (Herbert was her husband.) Ann shot at her: "What has Claire done?" The false friend tossed her head. "You may well ask! Only insured --on the sly, mark four- carat solitaire I loaned her as se- 'curity on $1500 I'd lost to her in a card game! I told her she could keep it till I paid her what I owed. I'd overdrawn my allowance and my bank account, and Herbert was mad at me for playing so much contract, so I trusted Claire--and what do you think she did?" "Just the facts, please.

Don't elaborate," Ann told her sharply. "After I'd paid her the and she'd returned the ring to me, she'd the criminal nerve to go to the insurance company with a trumped- up tale of having lost the ring--her boldly claiming the $1500 insurance money!" "Did pay it?" Ann's voice seemed from very far off. "No, they didn't. They aren't such cools. They put an investigator on job, and he came snooping here his afternoon.

Thinking he was ordinary caller, the maid let him. in." "And he's, with Claire now? IE Lolly there too?" "She's out. Mercifully everybody's out but us. Bernice is at the doctor's. Your mother at a luncheon party.

Not that you can hope to hide it from theml I guess everyone in town will know pretty there you're dead wrong!" Ann said with spirit. "I'm going to set this thing straight!" She swept past the bearer of bad tidings nto the big, shabby living-room, to 5nd Claire staring wretchedly out the window, with reddened eye- ids, and a grim-faced man standing on the hearth-rug. Without preamble, Ann addressed him in business-like tones. 'You're the investigator from the insurance company?" "Yes. My name's Beacon.

I'm from the Adjustment of Claims office." He nodded over Ann's shoulder in the direction of Carol Ditmar, who, anxious to miss nothing that would humiliate the Delafields, had followed Ann into the room. "I came here to find out all I could about Miss Delafield's lost ring, and first thing I saw was the dead spit of it on the hand "Ditmar," said Carol. She added eagerly: "And he admired it, and not knowing what he was I took it off my finger when he asked me to, and let him have a look at the mounting, and the initials Herbert had had put inside Carol Ditmar." "These are Claire's initials too," began Ann. Then she saw a wry twist on the face of the investigator. From his pocket he pulled out a photograph of the ring.

"Miss Delafield," he said, "will remember this picture being taken in our office when she came to pay the premium on the ring, which she claimed was her own property." Ann looked at her eldest sister, felt a queer tug of compassion draw her over to the despondent figure. "Have you anything to say, Claire?" she whispered, putting a hand on her shoulder, to reassure her, make her understand that she was with her, happen "what may. "Doesn't seem much good my talking, when Carol and Mr. Deacon--Beacon--have settled it all between themselves," Claire murmured. Carol bridled.

"Well, I must say you're not showing much gratitude! How was" to know what was in the wind Or that you'd a ring that looked like this and with the same initials in it? How was I to tell Mr. Beacon anything different from what I did, which was the absolute truth?" "You loaned this ring to Miss Delafield?" he repeated, his gaze resting appraisingly on Carol, who shrugged, rolling her eyes towards the ceiling. Ann intervened. "Now that the ring's been found, Miss Delaneld naturally drops her claim against your company. She was going to notify you, of course, and save you the bother of coming here.

We're really sorry to have given you so much trouble. And now--" trying to carry it off have to get back to the store. Perhaps I could drop. you off at your office, Mr. Beacon The International Insurance Company is on my route." Mr.

Beacon stucjc the thumb of each hand into the armholes of his vest. This sort of thing had been happening too frequently up and down Park Avenue lately, among the needy 'elite! Not that this shabby flat looked like Park Avenue, but the girls themselves had the "Society" stamp. They needed a lesson, and would get it. He hardened his heart. "Sorry, but it's my duty to make a full report to the Adjuster of Claims.

We've had too much hanky- panky of this In order to protect the company we'll have to prosecute Miss Delafield on a charge of attempting to get money out of us on false pretences and misrepresentations. It's a clear case for the district-attorney." "My Ktfier had a perfect right to insure the rin.7 when it was in her keeping, and to KO to you v-hcn it was missing--for it VMS missing for a time," declared Ann. "The mis- ta.ke was in not telephoning you when it was finally found and "returned to its original owner. You have, no case whatever for the district-attorney. Claire-Carol--come to the bedroom right away with me and put on your hats and coats and we'll all go to the insurance'offices." Before either ot the jmmg could recover their she had swept them out of the Mr.

Beacon over her please wait a minute, and they'd right back. Now, listen, Carol," she said brusquely, when the trio were of earshot of the investigator, with door of Claire's bedroom carefully "whether Claire said ring was hers or not has no bearing on what's happened. The ring was lost for a definite period. Apparently you don't know that. But now get it straight." "D'you take me for a complete fool?" Carol sneered.

"I'm not one to want to get Claire into trouble, but believe me I'm not going to mix my good name in this mess. I'm not going near either the district-attorney or the claim-adjuster, not though you go down on your bended knees, Ann Delafield! I've my home and my husband to consider!" Claire trembled and sank into chair, but Ann resolutely faced Carol. "No one's going on their you're going back in that living-room and corroborate what I just said to the investigator--that Claire did lose the ring and was frightened to death to-tell you, but notified the insurance company, as was proper." Carol's eyes narrowed. So they'd try to force her hand "If you -want me to do you a big favor, you're going the wrong way about it, commaTtdinff me--" Said Ann: "I do command you. Else--" "Else what?" She looked Carol in the eye, her young face like steel.

"You just mentioned your good name, your home, and your husband. You have these-to consider. Then what about that week-end in Atlantic City with Captain de Freyn?" Carol's mouth fell open. A slow, blazing red crept from the V-neck of her dress up to her very forehead. "How dare you say such a thing?" she hissed at Ann.

"It's libel! I--I could sue you for it!" "Go ahead. I'm sure Herbert would be interested to know that when you said you were in Boston, at the ball game, you and Captain de Freyn were at Atlantic City. You see Cora Schwartz, from whom you bought that very bag you're carrying, happened to be right at the hotel desk beside you when the Captain registered." "It was somebody else, I tell you," stammered Carol, crimson no longer now, but deadly white. "On the contrary, Cora was quito definite it was you, Carol," said Ann. "You were wearing your red hat that matches your bag--" she nodded at your squirrel coat and muff.

She saw you again at dinner in the orchid sequin and the wrap with the dyed ostrich feathers. If it comes to a show-down, there's no question about witnesses, Carol." Ensued a pause. Discretion was the better part of valor. Carol admitted to herself that she should have thought of that before her trip to Atlantic City; as. most certainly she was to think of it now, -when' caught red- handed.

"It's silly of us quarreling over nothing," she said shortly, "when all I want to do is get Claire out of the mess she's landed herself in, over the ring. I'm sure I hope this'H be a lesson to her." She marched back to the living room, Ann following close behind her. and up to Mr. Beacon. "It won't be necessary for me to go down with you to your company, for what you've been told is perfectly correct The ring was lost a couple of weeks ago, and Clr.ire worried to death sbout it.

and then she found it and jrave it back to me, not telling, me it hat! been missing-, and meaning to notify you, and tbe-n, I suppose, forgetting about it. So the claim's iV "And now, Mr. Beacon," Ann said quickly, the instant Carol had delivered her say-so, "perhaps you'H accept my offer of a lift in the taxi I'm taking downtown?"
