Egypt, Nov. New rioting against British domination of Egypt broke out tonight as opposition demands for the resignation of Premier Nessim Pasha climaxed a day of disorder in which one person was killed and 81 injured. Attacking Great Britain, Nahas Pasha, leader of the Wafd Party, whipped 50,000 persons attending a party mass meeting into a frenzy by shouting: "Better to have every Egyptian dead than to continue under the heel of the oppressors:" Another riot ensued. British po lice and troops cracked some 50 heads.

The police, armed with riot guns and carrying shields, were reinforced by two battalions of soldiers. i-ariier the Wafdist executive committee had dec ded to withdraw party support from Pasha's Cab inet.

yuicKiy the riots spread to various smaller towns where police fired into mobs. An American cameraman was hurt in Cairo. Late tonight, however, all Egypt was reported under control. At the bottom of the trouble, was the fact that Britain has clamped a virtual military dictatorship coan Egypt as a result of tension in the Mediterranean growing out of the Ethiopian crisis. Egyptian ports have been crammed with British lighting ships.

Premier Nessim at first was sup ported by the Wafd Party in the belief that he would effect restora tion of the Constitution." However in a speech last Saturday in London Sir Samuel Hoare indicated that Great Britain is not interested in having the Constitution restored at present. The Wafdists then demanded the ouster of Premier Nes sim. But he insisted on staying in power until after the emergency created by the Italo-Ethlopian con- tnct. Cairo was uneasy tonight won dertng if today's outbreak was prelude to prolonged trouble like that of 1922 which forced the Brit ish to acknowledge Egypt's inde pendence. The present temper, observers state, is even worse than then, Duce Woos French Amity as British Snub Protest Note Premier Mussolini was snubbed by Britain Wednesday on his protest against sanctions and attempt ed to preserve friendship with Fiance by notifying Premier Pierre Laval that Italy would postpone economic reprisals against French participation in the League boy cott, effective next.

Monday. II Duce also said that he had ordered the Italian pres3 to stop its attacks on rancc. England's snub came when it was learned that although Italy's note protesting sanctions requested individual replies, the British will seek a joint reply by all powers through the League. Meanwhile, the Mediterranean tension, reflected in the Egyptian riots, was to the in other wavs. France announced an increase of $34,190,000 in its naval budget for next year.

A copyrighted cable to the Free Press and Chicago Tribune said that a part of the naval program would be to hasten construction of a strong naval base at Mers-el-Kebir Algeria. This port is near Gilbraltar and plans for Its fortification apparently were linked to the forthcoming naval conference in London, where the French are expected to attempt to force the British to share domination of the Mediterranean with them. A strong Algerian base would enable the French to menace Gibral-'(-(ise Turn to Piiyr. 2 Column 4 PERNAMBUCO, Brazil, Nov. 13 (A.

Chinese Leader Slain in Temple Tokiofs Favorite Shot by Praying Woman the Mciided Press A praying woman Wednesday chose a Tientsin Buddhist temple in which to assassinate Marshal Sun Chun Fang, often called Japan's choice for leadership of an independent North China. The twenty-five-year-old, well dressed slayer turned from an attitude of prayer as Sun entered the temple to attend a Buddhist meeting and emptied her revolver at the general.

Then she calmly surrendered to police. Investigators reported that she was the daughter of the late Gen. Sze Chung Pin, and that she blamed Sun for the execution of her father. Sun, once one of the most powerful war lords in China, has been a staunch opponent of the Nanking Government. He was 50 years old and had been living in retirement In recent years.

Funeral services for the Tiger owner who died of a heart attack while horseback riding Wednesday will be held at 10 a. m. in Blessed Sacrament Catholic Church, Wood ward and Belmont Aves. Mr. Navln's death came Just 37 tys after he had achieved his life ambition, the winning of a World Series championship.

For a number or years he had worried about the condition of his heart, and his wife and close Intimates several year ago urged him to retire from baseball because of the excitement and the attendant strain. Pallbearers will be chosen from the membership ot the Question Club, a social organization ot which Mr. Navin was a member. Few deaths in recent years hava so stirred Detroit as Mr. Navin s.

and the funeral is expected to one or the largest in the Citv hlstoty. All of Wednesday afternoon and evening, a stream of family friends visited the Navin home at 36 Longfellow to offer their sympathy to Mrs. Navin, Fall from Hlx Hors Mr. Navin died while riding hi horse Masquerade at the Detroit Hiding and Hunt Club, between i' and 11 a. Wednesday.

His body was found beside the bridle path, where it had fallen when he wa stricken in th saddle. Kiding on the club grounds at the same time was his wife, Mrs. Grace Shaw Navin. She was not at his side, because Mr. Navin liked to ride alone.

She was the first to realize, however, that something was amiss. As she was returning to tb stables on her own horse, she saw Mnsqucrader gallop back riderless. She ran toward the clubhouse and gave the alarm. Mr. Navin was found by a searching party a half-mile from th ttable, unconscious or dead, iind was fatten to the Detroit Osteo pathic Hospital in Highland Park.

He was dead on admittance. Wife Is Prostrated Mrs. Navin was taken to tha Navin homo In a state of collapse. An autopsy performed on tha body and signed by Dr. Albert A.

Hughes, coroner, stated: 'Death was caused by acuta coronary occlusion, coronary sclerosis and terminal cardiac dilation. The artery wag blocked near the heart, the arteries hardened and the flow of blood was cut off. "There Is no doubt that death was caused by heart attack, which took place while Mr. Navin was on horseback. He fell from his hors, probably dead.

There were no body bruises." The body was taken to the William F.lake funeral chapel at 7 Peterboro St. and will be taken to I he Navin residence Thursday and remain there until the funeral. Tald Tribute aa Leader As the news spread through downtown Detroit at the noon hour, and gradually through the entire Nation, tributes to Mr. Navin as a man and as a stimulating leader 0f baseball players poured In. Mayor Frank Couzens said: "I am deeply shocked to hear of the death of Mr.

Navin. Detroit, has lost a distinguished citizen and his absence will be felt In the civic, life of the City and in the baseball world." Walter O. Briggs, partner with Navin in The Detroit Baseball Co, wired from Miami Beach, where he is on vacation. Charles F. Navin, nephew of the ball club owner, and secretary of the company, returned to Detroit from Battle Creek, where he had been in the sanitarium.

Governor I.envm Gov. Frank D. Fitzgerald had this to say: "Like many other citizens. I was shocked and grieved by news of Mr. Navin's death.

i -k Y.i.; 1 By Clifford A- Prevost WASHINGTON. Nov. 13 The Federal Government will proceed with the Chandler Park low cost housing development at Detroit, and will disregard entirely the protests of business organizations and the demand by the Common Council that the allotment for the proj ect be rescinded. This position on the part or the Housing Division of the Public Works Administration was made known today by A. R.

Clas. director. He telegraphed to the uctroit Housing Commission to close im mediately options on the land needed for the development. Director Clas' action established a precedent for the allotment or funds for housing developments. The procedure has been to provide for projects only when they have been sought by the local officials.

Clas said that he was acting without awaiting formal notification of the protest expected from the Com mon Council. The protect calls for the expendi ture of $4,500,000 to provide a low cost housing development for white- collar workers. A similar project, involving the expenditure of for a slum-clearance undertak ing for Negro residents has already been begun. 'Urged by Detroit Citizens' "This project was undertaken after the Detroit Housing Commission, representative citizens and others had urged it," Clas said to day. For several weeks we have held up the acquisition of land, awaiting some word from the City government, but no official word has been received "We decided to wait no longer," he continued.

"There will be no further delays In advancing this project as we are anxious to em ploy as many persons on it during the winter months as can possibly be "Furthermore, we are satisfied that this development will be the finest undertaken by the Federal Government, that it will enhance the value of real estate in the district where it is to be located, and that when the peoplo of Detroit understand the nature of the project, they will be decidely grateful for' the improvement," Clas continued. Keul Estate Board Opposed According to information reaching the Housing Division, opposition to the project has been developed by the Detroit Real Estate Board, which expressed the opinion that it would represent unfair competition with private building industry. It was stated that no councilman had opposed the improvement until the real estate board protested. The decision to proceed with the second Detroit project was a surprise to officials of the PWA. It came in the face of demands from between 400 and 500 cities for funds PUase Turn to Page 5 Column BULLETIN NEW YORK, Nov.

13 (A. New York Times says in a rii-spatch from Washington that informal orders have been issued by President Roosevelt to administrative officials to cut Federal expenditures under the "937 budget by $300,000,000 less than the newly estimated total for 1936. As a result, the dispatch says, the lives of many Federal bureaus and egencies were reported to be hanging in the balance. The economy wave is heightened by signs of better business, the Times says. "The figure for budget savings for the fiscal year 1937 has been roughly set at $500,000,000," the dispatch continues.

"This together with $500,000,000 in increased revenue for the same period, which the Treasury confidently expects if business trends continue, will enable the Administration to lop a billion dollars off the deficit and thus place the budget In a position to be balanced during the fiscal year 1938." ties claimed as the result of a traffic crash. On Fey. 6, 1931, at. the intersection of Dexter and W. Boston Mrs.

Kahn testified, she bad stopped her automobile awaiting the change of a traffic light, when Simmons' car crashed Into the rear of her car. The sudden snapping of her neck, she said, had evolved into a permanent disability which prevented her from doing housework, or engaging fn her favorite recreations swimming, golfing and horseback riding. At that point in the testimony, the defense introduced its evidence. The courtroom was darkened; a n.otion picture projector and screen wue brought in, end the jury watched a cinematic portrayal of Mrs. Kahn riding a horse.

That picture, the defense certified, was taken on Belle Isle on May 26. 1935, by Cameraman Herman Stone, of the Metropolitan Motion Picture Co. Mrs. Kahn admitted that the photographs were of herself and t-ffered to explain. Her explanation was ruled out by Judge Marschner, and the jury retired ie: uined verdict.

hi tii.K.iin I i. i.ZAI:i;i-. port i. 1 1. ii i By Iffy the Dopester A DETROIT institution has passed.

Frank J. Navin is dead. So quietly this urbane citizen lived his life, so modestly and so unobtrusively that very few of us realized he was an institution until that evening of Sept. 21 when a testimonial dinner was given in his honor because his baseball club had won another American League pennant. When that realization came, it was as a sudden dawning, that here was a man who for 32 years had been building himself so solidly into the civic life of the community and into the hearts of the people, that we had been taking him for granted a something that always had been.

The Cobbs, the Jennings, the Donovans, the Mullins, the Schafers had flared across the headlines of the Nation and had gone their way, some to the grave and some to oblivion; and new ones came: the Heil-manns, the Basslers, the Foth-ergills, the Whitehills came and had their day, too, until the quiet genius of the Front. Office struck another winning combination and out of the silences of the lean years came the roar again of the Tigers with new names, new power and new glories: The Coch-ranes, the Cehringers, Oreenbergs, the Bridges and all the valiant lads who fought their way to baseball immortality. These were the men the world applauded and the silent, unsmiling master who made them all possible, never told of how he pulled the strings to guide them, asked no credit and took none. It seemed as though the brilliant stars of the diamond would -ome and go but that Uncle Frank Navin would go on forever. In 32 years his Tigers finished IS times in the first division and from 1907 on when he finally got a team started they were, with rare exceptions up, in the fighting.

In the early days, back at the turn of the Century, Frank J. Navin was just a baseball club manager to the people. When the winning years came he was just a baseball magnate with a winning club. But in the later years he began to grow upon the consciousness of his fellow citizens as something above and beyond that. Without ever projecting himself into the spotlight in any way whatever, he reached at pinnacle achieved by so few: an institution of a city and one much beloved, TTIS intimates in the olden days used to speak of him as Old Poker Face because his expression never changed.

Few men have ever had such perfect control over their emotions. But behind that seeming mask there was a gentle soul, so sentimental that he must have disciplined his facial muscles as a defense mechanism. And there was humor there, too. Frank J. Navin, relaxed, was one of the few great story tellers this writer has ever heard.

It was a great natural talent but one seldom indulged. "I guess I got that set expression on my face that you fellows like to kid me about from dealing with ball players," he once remarked. "They pop so many strange propositions at you, you have to be prepared for almost anything." Mr. Navin loved his players but understood them as no other man ever did in baseball. He was the stern father and shrewd counselor, the kindly "uncle" when they were in distress, and the silent companion in their joys.

His genius in baseball was in his ability as a dealer in athletes. He not only knew playing ability but he knew human nature. His three most remarkable moves which brought him i fortune and put Detroit forever on the baseball map were: First His buying of Ty Cobb for 5700. Second His landing of Hughie Jennings as manager. Third His deal by which he landed Mickey Cochrane.

There were countless other dials and shrewd moves on the checkerboard of baseball dealing, but these stood out. He knew every minor league player in the country, knew his averages, his playing and hitting abilities and above all, his character. Nobody in either major league knew as much about the game and its background as Mr. Navin. He realized years ago that star players could not be bought, that money could not make a bail club.

So he started from the ground up, bought minor league clubs, ma-ie working agreements with others and slowly began creatmg a winning combination. The Voril Cn.irnp;orihip Tigers were cre- J. NAVIN else. Johnson consented to Jennings to keep Yawkey's enthusiasm. But the Baltimore club wanted more money than the Detroit club had for Jennings.

Again the Navin quiet technique. Jennings was rated also as a player in the Baltimore roster and Mr. Navin bided his time and got him in the draft for the simple fee of $1,000. JENNINGS took a sixth place club and made it th American League champion for three years. Cochrane took a sixth place club and has already won two pennants and one World Series.

But in both instances it was Frank J. Navin who supplied the raw material which was to be welded into winners. In 1903, Frank J. Navin was a young bookkeeper in the office of S. F.

Angus. He had gone through business college and had been graduated from the Detroit College of Law under the guiding hand of his older brother, Thomas Navin. He once ran for justice of the peace but was beaten and was working for Angus, awaiting his chance at the law when his tide turned. Mr. Angus was an insurance man and capitalist.

He was a great sportsman and early became interested in baseball. For a very small sum he was induced to buy the Detroit franchise in the American League. Much of the bookkeeping detail of this was entrusted to youn; Navin. Angus fell upon dark days financially and needed help. He turned to his old friend, William F.

Yawkey, father of William C. The elder Yawkey came to the rescue of Angus by investing $15,000 in the club. Angus was to put in a like amount and Navin the same when and if he could raise it. i The elder Yawxey died be- fore the deal was completed, i but his money was in and it was that it was the younger Yawke-'' investment. There was a strong family pride among the Yawkeys and one of their beliefs was that i no Yawkey name should ever be associated with a loser in any line of busi -ess.

i S. F. Angus died shortly after the elder Yawkey and the young heir was faced with a joke ball club. Mr. Navin approached him on the proposition of going in on a partnership.

Yawkey agreed on a Mtv-fifty basis. "But remember," he said, "we've got to have a winner." At the end ti the season. Navin was worn to a shadow. The season had been disastrous and he wa broke. The few thousand he had pu.

in had been wiped out. He ma le his report to Yawkey. That was the cf Yawkey stotTed. "You can't get out." he "What do I know about mar.ag-'rg a ball dub? II! I V- 19 'i 5 FRANK ated In the mind of Frank Navin long before that first winning year of 1934. He had Greenberg, Rogell, Owen, Fox, White, Rowe, Auker and all the rest under cover in the minor leagues watching over them, studying their development as a gardener would his plants.

And when he thought they had arrived he found that the manager he had chosen was not what was needed. He had his eye on Mickey Cochrane, the fiery catcher of the Philadelphia Athletics. Here was his last stroke of genius as a "horse trader." Connie Mack wanted more money than Mr. Navin felt privileged to pay. He had been hard hit by the depression and had to borrow the money at the bank underwritten, of course, by his partner.

Walter O. Briggs. He talked to Connie Mack over the long distance phone. He knew that Connie had made all his players take a 10 per cent cut that year and he knew ballplayers. "I don't want Cochrane as a player," he told Mack, "I want him as my manager." That was the end of that conversation.

He let that last remark seep into Connie's consciousness. He knew what would happen. Connie, being very old and very wise himself, would figure out: "If I don't let Mickey go to Detroit for the chance of a lifetime a managership and he ever finds out about it, he won't be worth a quarter to me as a ballplayer." One hour later he called Mr. Navin back and agreed to the sale $100,000. The rest is current history.

TN the Jennings deal, which brought him the first success, he had greater difficulties to surmount. Jennings was manager of Baltimore and had been one of the famous fighting players of the old Orioles with John McCraw as his friend. McGraw had jumped to the National League in the baseball war when the American League was born. He had refused to stand for the discipline exacted by the iron hand of Ban Johnson, the creator of the League. And Johnson had further ruled that Hugh Jennings never could play in the American League because of the "rowdy" baseball tactics of the Baltimore crowd.

Jennings was doing brilliant work as manager of the Orioles in the Eastern League and numerous National League owners were dickering for him. Mr. Navin had got William F. Yawkey. multi-millionaire lumberman, to back him in buying the club.

Johnson was having a despen'e time his League afloat.
