Morgenthau refused to recommend what rates the committee impose. He reiterated President Roosevelts press conference statement that the rates to be imposed and revenue to be realized must be determined by congress.

The treasury secretary said any revenue obtained should be devoted first to curtailing government borrowing and, second, to reducing the national debt when income balances expenditures. He said he thought the worst of the emergency" was over. Morgenthau's recommendation that new' revenue be earmarked for those purposes appeared to be an administration counter to plans of the veterans' bloc to divert possible F. PLANS IS S.

ITALY SENDS MORE TROOPS TO ABYSSINIA France and United States Refuse to Join Move to Invoke Kellogg Pact LONDON, July 8, (UP) Great Britain has been brought to at least a temporary halt in its effort to prevent Italy from wager war on Abyssinia. Both Italy and Fiance have rebuffed British suggestion and efforts at compromise, and the United States refusal to revoke the Pact of Paris has lift the government, for the present at least, empty of ideas. Italy has rejected all British pleas not to wage war.

France has fused to endanger its new friendship with Italy by supporting British pressure on Italy. President Roosevelt's refusal to heed Abyssinia's plea to invoke the Briand-Kellogg anti-war pact, which the United States government sponsored, was the final blow. It seemed that whatever happened Germany, which is not involved at all in the Abyssinian problem, would be the winner. Important benefit was seen accruing already to Germany because the "United Front" of Britain, France and Italy, agreed upon at the conference at Stresa, Italy, has been broken. The United Front was to be invoked against further German treaty violantion.

It has proved short lived. Italian Troops En Route ROME, July 8, Italy stepped up concentration of troops for action in East Africa and Abyssinia before the rain season ends in September. The blackshirt divisions, it was disclosed, have been increased in strength from 12,000 to 15,000 men. More than 3,000 soldiers and officers are en route to Africa on three ships that sailed during the week-end. Other transports are ready at their docks, awaiting only the arrival of volunteer battalions.

Although most observers held that hostilities could not begin before the heavy rains let up in September, some expressed a belief that the controversy was developing so rapidly that it would come to a head sooner. The nation rallied strongly to Premier Benito Mussolini's charge to 12,000 Blackshirts, ready to depart at Salerno for Africa: We have decided upon a struggle in which we as a government and people will not turn hack. The decision is irretrievable. Italian newspapers displayed prominently dispatches asserting France had refused to hark Great Britain in an effort to avert war through the League of Nations Dispatches from London criticized Captain Anthonv Eden for a "tentative offer of a sea port to Abyssinia to settle the dispute. Authoritative sources said British opposition has strengthened Italian public opinion behind 11 Duce's East African campaign and that Italy Is determined to proceed, regardless of what England does.

The United States action, on the other hand, in refusing in effect to act under the Kellogg-Briand pact to avert hostilities was termed more diplomatic. WASHINGTON, July 8 Acknowledging that little progress has been made in actually transferring unemployables from federal relief to the care of the states, relief officials said today that about 4.000,000 such persons still are on the federal rolls.

1. iAter Hopkins, modified his requirement. Funds for unemployables would be loaned states and cities unable to take over the responsibility he said. Later he abandoned the attempt for the time, and officials said they expected the administrations' security program to provide foi most of the dependent children and aged. AMER.

The other was Hemsleys triple to the same area in the second inning. Hemsley scored on Joe Cronin's fly to center. Schumacher then thiottled the Americans for two innings and had two out in the fifth when Vosmik and Gehringer singled, Gehrig walked and Foxx scratched a hit thru Schumacher's legs. This tallied Vosmik and left the bases loaded but Schumacher fanned Bob Johnson.

Doubles by Charley Gehringer, In the seventh, and A1 Simmons in the eighth, off Dean, failed to bring about further sroring. Dean, who was greeted with mingled hooes and cheers, gave the big crowd a show while he was on the mound. MANILA, July 9.

July 8 CP) Five pirates today boarded the luxurious gambling barge Monte Carlo, chained its crew, and escaped with what Ed Turner, owner of the boat, estimated was $32,000 in cash and jewelry. The attar-k on the Monte Carlo, which became piracy on the high seas because the big steel barge is anchored about eight miles off shore, occurred at 4 a.

m. Turner said, while most of the crew was asleep. Turner said the loot consisted of $22,000 in cash, and $10,000 in jewelry left as security by patron of the Monte Carlo. The pirates, he said, came alongside In a fishing boat under the cover of a heavy fog. Part of the gang remained in the boat while five men boarded the Monte Carlo.

The boarding crew carried chains, and were armed with pistols, rifles and sawed off shotguns. The crew of the Monte Carlo was quickly subdued, and the safe loot-ed. After the pirates escaped the coast guard was summoned, since the case is a federal one. Long Beach police were asked to post guards at all likely landing piers.
