Joseph ObergfelL secretary-treas-turer of the International.

Brewery, Flour, Cereal and Soft Drink Workers union, said the board already had decided to expell any member discovered to be associated with racketeers, and that congress would be asked to pass legislation permitting only "citizens of good character and reputation" to receive permits to operate breweries.

Hastings said, he would not support wine and beer, legislation.

Favors Popular Vote The senator said he would vote "fnr fhp npnessarV resolutions to submit an amendment for repeal of the eighteenth amendment to tne people of the various states." "If I can not get the kind of amendment that I prefer," he said, "I shall vote to submit a resolution that would repeal entirely." Regardless of what action congress takes toward repeal, Hastings said he would introduce in the coming short session a bill to provide that no federal money shall be used to enforce the Volstead act in states that do not provide for the enforcement of the eighteenth amendment "My proposal," he added, "leaves the states to do just exactly as they please with the respect to the liquor question. Hastings said the recent announcement attributed to the governor of California that he would nardon those convicted of violating the state enforcement law "demonstrates the necessity of some drastic action to prevent the conflict between a federal and state law from becoming more ridiculous."

Marcelino ran wild in and out of the cheap lodging houses and shops on the edge of the oriental district, striking at the hearts of whomever he met, while police and rmbu-lances followed his trail of dying and wounded victims.

Smith, Negro, because it was "crucifixion time." Police said there was no disturbance. A plea of guilty was entered for Harris, and he was returned to a cell pending a possible sanity hearing. Harris entered into a lengthy argument with Recorders' Judge John A. Boyne as to who was "king" in the courtroom, and the court attendants had difficulty in keeping the Negro's hat off his head. "I killed this man with the crucifixion," he said.

"I said And he fell dead." Previous testimony was to the effect that Harris, in the midst of a "sacrificial" rite to his gods, struck the man over the head with an automobile axle after stabbing him. "Well, I've got to go now," said Harris, as he completed his testimony and started toward the door. Police restrained him, and, protesting that he was "king here and everywhere," he was returned to a cell, while the cult members dispersed.

Ludwig Kaas Interviews Party "Leaders On His Prospects Berlin President von Hindenburg was informed today that creation of a coalition cabinet is impossible, and it appeared certain that another "presidial" government responsible only to the chief executive must be appointed. Ludwig Kaas, head of the Centrist party, was commissioned by the president this morning to consult the various party leaders regarding the chances for coalition. He reported that Adoir Hitler's 196 National Socialist members of the Reichstag would oppose the new chancellor no matter who he is, and that Alfred Hugenberg, the Nationalist leader, had declined to participate in a coalition cabinet. Berlin VPy President von Hin denburg today called upon Dr. Ludwig Kaas, Centrist party leader, to answer definitely this question pos ed by the domestic crisis: Is it possible, and if so under what conditions, to establish a parliamentary government in Germany? The president's latest action indicated he was willing to give the new Reichstag a chance to prove its working ability, even though Adolf Hitler, leader of the National Socialists, declined to form a parliamentary government.

Hitler heads the largest single group in the Reichstag, but no party there has enough teats to command anywhere near a majority. If Dr. Kaas' Centrists should form a government it would have to be a coalition. Dr. Kaas told the president he believed the possibility of obtaining a parliamentary coalition still existed, and intimated the Centrists were willing to cooperate.

Dr. Kaas started interviewing party leaders and promised to give the president a reply shortly. Hitler addressed an appeal to his followers today after the president withdrew his offer to make Hitler chancellor of a parliamentary government. The document ended as on previous occasions, "the fight continues." The appeal predicted the ultimate triumph of the Nazis provided they did not compromise to help bolster up a tottering system. A group of presidential adviser today were reported suggesting that their chief appoint Dr.fHein-rich Schnee as chancellor.

Dr. Schnee was formerly a colonial expert and was the German member of the league of nations' Manchu-rian commission.

Chinese Reject Lytton Proposals Plan For Direct Negotiations With Japan are Termed Unacceptable Nanking, China VP) Proposals advanced by the Lytton commission and others for direct negotiations with Japan to find a solution for the Manchurian dispute are absolutely unacceptable to China, the government announced today.

The Lytton commission recommended an advisory conference between China and Japan with the object cf negotiating four separate instruments: (1) A declaration by the Chinese government constituting a special administration for the three Manchurian provinces. (2) A treaty between China and Japan dealing with Japanese interests! (3) Another treaty of conciliation, arbitration, non-aggression and mutual assistance. (4) A commercial treaty between the two countries. The first would create an autonomous regime, the rights of both countries thereunder to be protected by the treaties. Thhe only armed force in Manchuria would be established with the collaboration of foreign instructors, to serve as a police organization.

The government also would be assisted by foreign appointees. The treaty dealing with Japan's interests would guarantee that country's free participation in the economic development of Manchuria, would guarantee continuance of Japan's rights in the neighboring Mongolian province of Jehol, and would embody an agreement regarding the operation of the railways. Treaty of conciliation would set up an arbitrating board to assist in the solution of any difficulties arising between the two countries regarding the interpretation of the new The commission suggested that provision could be made for participation in this arrangement by Soviet Russia.

The veteran Republican leader contended the Democratic program to balance the budget through econ omies and a beer for revenue bill would fall short. "I believe we will have to have new taxes," he said. "I don't think a beer bill, even should it be enart.

ed, would provide enough revenue wnnout other taxes." Smoot said he did not know where to look for new sources of revenue and advanced again the general sales tax as the alternative for getting more funds. He declined an opinion on a beer-for-revenue bill pending its formulation by the house ways and means committee. His estimate that a new revenua legislation is necessary was taken at the capitol to forecast a recommendation in thi3 direction by the administration. However, Smoot said he had nol discussed the fiscal situation with Secretary Mills. Freedom For Islands Smoot also predicted today a Philippine independence bill would be passed early in the short session of congress.

The issue, long one of dispute, is slated to be taken up by the senate Dec. 8, three days after it convenes. The Hare bill passed last session by the house bv an overwhelming majority will be the vehicle for debate, but many features of tha Iawes-Cutting measure pending in the senate are expected to be brought forward as amendments, if the entire senate bill is not offeree! as a substitute. The Hare bill would grant full Independence to the Islands in about eight years. The Hawes-Cuttlng proposal would extend this to about 18 years.

Meanwhile, both measures lay down import limitations on sugar, copra, cocoanut oil and other commodities competing with American products and levy duti.j on all amounts above specified allotments. Free entry would be curtailed gradually until the islanders wera ready economically as well as politically to govern themselves. Asked if he would support independence, Senator Smoot said: "I think I will vote for it." When the Hawley-Smoot tariff bill was pending, the Utah senator proposed a limit on free entry sugar from the islands of 585,000 tons, but failed to get a majority of the finance committee to support it Independence for the islands waj pledged in the Democratic platform, and is one of the subjects whichl leadership of that party Capitol-Hill will seek to have disposed in the short session. Prior to today, however, there had been no prediction that the time of action would be so soon. Finds Bodies of Five Killed in Accident Bozeman, Mont.

Mystery Slaying Nears Solution Nebraska Youth Is Arrested in Death of Montana Cattleman Chicago -VP) The mysterious slaying of a western cattleman in a hotel room near the Union stockyards almost a month ago appeared near solution today, police said, with the arrest of an 18-ycar-old youth, Merle Lowman, in Scotts Bluff, Neb. Sheriff Vincent S.

Ramsey, Scotts Bluff, announced the arrest of the boy yesterday and said he told of a fight in which Henry Snoop, Wibaux, the victim, had taken part against Lowman and an unarmed itinerant The first started over four dollars Shoop owed the other man, Ramsey said Lowman told him.

The premier was quoted in the newspaper Ere Nouvelle as declar ing President Hoover reply to Eu-ropean debtors advising them they were expected to pay debt installments in December, "involves in a formidable fashion the whole realm of international politics." "A new period of negotiations is about to open," the statement said, "first with the United States and then with Great Britain.

When those negotiations are finished, and then only, will the government be in a position to decide its attitude. "It is very, very grave." London The British cabinet gathered new data today for another note to Washington seeking postponement of war debt payments until the whole question can be discussed. Simultaneously a cabinet committee was charged with the task of studying President Hoover's reply to the original British note asking extension of the moratorium of June, 1931. The American chief executive said debtors were expected to pay up in December, when the next installments are due in Washington. There were few in England, however who doubted Great Britain would pay if further representations failed to bring an extension of the moratorium.

Stanley Bruce, former Australian told the American society at its Thanksgiving dinner last night that further postponements of debt payments would not make a AVCM Speaking at the same dinner, United States Ambassador Andrew W. Mellon stressed wrld peace and order in the United States as caus- I es for Thanksgiving. Pound Declines The pound sterling touched $3.23 in early trading on the sterling dol-, lar exchange today, equalling the lowest point reached since the coun- try went off the gold standard. Trading was light. The rate subsequently hardened a fraction.

There appeared to be no fresh influences beyond what brokers felt was the "debt uncertainty." The stock exchange was idle owing to the prevailing uncertainty. Meanwhile gold went to 127 shillings 8 pense an ounce, another high. The price of gold in the open market advances automatically as sterling declines. If sterling continues to drop there will be corre-, sponding advances in gold at each successive lower quotation on sterling. Meantime the newspapers are printing many editorial about the debts, some of them bittqr, some resigned.

Government representatives said all this discussion in the papers is entirely beside the point for the cabinet itself has not decided what will be best to do. Said the Liberal Star: "Default, the thing that was unthinkable ten years ago, becomes almost a duty now.
