SISTER and BROTHER. Europe Combed For N. Y. Bond Theft Suspect, Wife Quizzed in London -Paris Holds 2 Men, Recovers $450,000 Paris, April 18 (P)-French police launched a search across all Europe tonight for a man wanted for questioning in connection with a New York bond theft case. after British police interrogated his wife last night in a London hotel.

Officials said the two suspects arrested here would be held in jail until a New York detective arrived. (Detective Henry Oswald left New York today aboard the liner Lafayette to aid in rounding up suspected mambers of the gang of interna- tional bond thieves which obtained more than $2,000,000 in securities from two New York City banks.) United authorities said the woman London was a Mrs. states, Frankenberg, who the French surete said apparently fled from France with her husband. The authorities said she was not arrested since there were no charges against her or her husband. Two Men Held Police identified the two men held under suspicion of complicity in the $1,507,938 robbery New York bank runner in 1935 as Bernard Klein, 39, a Hungarian, and his cousin, Jacob Schmartz, 34, a Czech.

In possession officers said they found $440,000 in bonds and Schwartz was reported in possession of $10,000. French police said Klein persisted that he had obtained the huge stranger in a hotel and that of from a total bondion his only interest in them was a 40 percent commission on any he shoul sell. The Frankenbergs, whose possible connection with the theft ring was not disclosed, were represented as leaving Paris a few days ago ostensibly from Monaco, but then they dropped from sight. Britain Halts New Sanctions Continued from Page 1 ward on two fronts toward the two principal cities of Ethiopia today. Although official reports were lacking, the best-informed sources said Gen.

Rodolfo Graziani, commander of Italy's southern army, had engaged the forces of as Nasibu in battle on the Harar line but that the Italians. still were a long distance city of Harar itself. The occupation of Jijiga, controlling the road from Berbera to British Somaliland, was believed imminent, and as soon as Jijiga is occupied, the Fascists intend to take Harar. While Graziani's men fought what was reported to be the fourth day of a battle for Harar, an Italian column in the north continued to along the road to Addis Ababa. Navy Is Prepared A communique from Marshal Badoglio spoke only of the southern army's advance guard having made contact on the Harar front, but well-informed sources said it was Graziani's main column which was threatening the railroad city.

While the inftnary moved through Ethiopia, the Italian navy went forward with its highly synchronized preparations against eventualities in the Mediterranean. Naval officers said they expected all leaves of absence to be cancelled and an excellent authority said the government, always alert to military efficiency, was forming a corps of sailors corresponding roughly in organization and purpose to the United States marines. Belgians Quit Emperor Addis Ababa, April 18 (P) -The members of the Belgian military commission, employed the last five years by Emperor Haile Selassie to train soldiers and police, were reported reliably today to have resigned again. The relations between the Belgians and the government have been strained often in the past, and they tendered their resignations in body at least once previously since the outbreak of the war. What relation there may be between the present report and the approach of the northern Italian Locked Up, He Changes Mind, Signs Complaint Lumber Yard Owner Had Refused to Accuse Trio Arrested After Detectives Trace Them by Tire Marks of Auto Samuel Feldman, owner of changed his mind about against three burglary suspects utes in the detention pen at the trate's Court yesterday.

Magistrate David: L. Malbin ordered Feldman locked up for questioning by the District Attorney when the lumberman declined to file burglary charges against three youths arrested for the theft of hardware valued at $300 from Feldman's lumber yard. The three were David Siegler, 23-year-old owner of a Venetian blind concern at 35 Bristol and two of his employes, Harry Portnoy, 19, of De Kalb and Sol Waldrof, 19, of 137 Herzl St. Car Traced by Tires The three were arrested by Detectives Richard Bennett and John Cahill of the Liberty Ave. station.

They traced the car used in the theft to Siegel by matching tire marks found in the lumber yard with treads on a car Siegel was said to have borrowed from a friend. The license number of this car had been given to the detectives by a person in the vicinity when the burglary was committed. The detectives told the court that Waldorf had admitted his part in the burglary, explaining he had hidden in the lumber yard until dark when he opened the gates for his accomplices. Magistrate Malbin became exasperated when Feldman, who lives at 1643 President declined to sign the complaint. "There is too much of this going on in the court," he said.

"We must put a stop to it." After Feldman had signed the complaint, the three suspects were held in $1,500 bail for a hearing April 21. Estate Rights Go To 2d Mrs. Child Letters of administration in the estate of Richard Washburn Child, late ambassador to Italy and fiction writer, were granted by Surrogate Foley of Manhattan yesterday to the widow, Mrs. Dorothy Child, of Newport, R. I.

original application for letters was made shortly after Mr. Child's death on Jan. 1935, by his first wife, Mrs. Maude Parker Parvenstedt, of New Haven, on behalf of herself and two daughters, Constance and Ann Child. In her application she stated the belief that the estate would not amount to more than $2,500.

Mrs. Dorothy Child objected to the application and yesterday's action by the Surrogate follows a year of legal argument. Want Ad Week Starts Off Today Beginning today and lasting through next Sunday, leading newspapers throughout the country are sponsoring National Want Ad Week to "arouse a keener and more comprehensive appreciation of the importance of want ads in the everyday life of all 1 of us." The Eagle is one of the newspapers joining in the campaign. The chief theme of the campaign, it is pointed out, is the want ad's value to the average family, in almost every phase. Whether you want to buy or sell, hire or seek employment, the want ad can help.

If you have lost something, the want ad may find it. If you seek a new place to live, a new car or a piece of furniture, the want even, will help track down your choice. If you have something to sell or services to offer, the want ad is equally valuable, those sponsoring the campaign point out. army to the capital was not spectfied, but the Belgians are known to have had disciplinary troubles in the past. It was understood that the government may not permit the Belgians to depart because of a dispute lover the fulfillment of contracts.

Heinlein, departmental warden, and his wife, Mary, 87, who were found dead in their tobath home at Michigan Ave. and Hicksville Road by their daughter, Mrs. Laurene Smith of Wantagh, who was making her daily visit to her parents.

This service has never been interrupted. 7501 FIFTH AVE. 697 Third Ave. 83 Hanson Place SHore Road 5-1600 (Day or Night) Women Draft Tercentenary Pageant Plan 4,000 Will Take Part in Parade 65 Floats 'Arranged Enthusiasm ran high and addresses of confidence and optimism were delivered as more than 100 members of the women's division of the Long Island Committee met for The Tercentenary, Eagle Home Guild yesterday. Added impetus to the efforts of the committee came from a talk by Mrs.

A. E. Fraser, dean of Brooklyn clubwomen, who on March 24 celebrated her 100th birthday. Mrs. Fraser, full of vigor despite her advanced years, saw the Tercentenary as a means for bringing world-wide recognition to Long Island's harbor advantages.

Steamships, she insisted, should make Long Island piers their ports instead of winding their difficult way up the Hudson. Pageant Arranged Miss Mary Dillon, president of the and member executive comBrooklyn Borough. Gas Company mittee of the Tercentenary celebration, disclosed plans for a historical pageant. Written in 1914, the pagebeen revamped so that it will be presented in parade fashion, led by a narrator using public address loud-speaking system. The parade from Ocean Parkway to W.

19th St. on Surf Coney Island, will include some 4,000 persons, most of whom will be school children and members of civic clubs. Principal parts will be taken by actors furnished by the Federal Theater Project, who will train the others. "The glory of all Long Island." was the manner in which Mrs. Fraser described the Tercentenary.

"Long Island has for so long a time been neglected in the scheme of things in the United States," she said. "We hope this will put us in the limelight. The big steamships should come into large modern piers on Long Island and should give us some of that great revenue, instead of winding their long way up the Hudson. Long Island should be looked upon as the most favored spot in the United States. Brooklyn Put on Map "When I was a girl of seven or eight my father used to test my knowledge of geography.

I could name off all of the principal cities in the United States, but when he asked me 'Where is I replied, 'It isn't on the Now, however, Brooklyn is on the map and the women of Brooklyn helped put it there, and now through this committee are accomplishing marvelous results in centering more attention on it." Mrs. Rebecca C. Talbot Perkins, chairman of the Brooklyn Alliance of Women's Clubs, was chairman of the meeting. She introduced many women prominent in Long Island social circles whose families have early histories on Long Island. Louis C.

Wills, president of the Chamber Commerce and general chairman of the Tercentenary Committee, and John W. Smith, general secretary of the committee, were among the speakers. Mr. Wills spoke of the Tercentenary fifty-cent coins now selling at one dollar, predicting that in future years they will be worth many times that sum. Merchants Pay for Floats Miss Dillon explained that the costs of the lavish floats in the historical parade will be paid by borough and Long Island merchants and business firms.

Costumes are being designed by the Index of American Design, and plans for the entire pageant have been drawn by Raoul P. DuBois, scenic creator for the theatrical production "Jumbo." There will be 65 floats depicting historical events from the landing of Hendrik Hudson at Norton's Point to the present time. The pageant will be staged on the night of June 5 and the afternoon of June 6 in contrast to the Tercentenary parade on Memorial Day. It will be presented again in Prospect Park a week later, Miss Dillon said. Other speakers, seated on the dais, were Mrs.

William Foster Rowland, president, New York Federation of Women's Clubs; Mrs. Charles A. Soper, past president, Long Island Federation of Women's Clubs; Mrs. William H. Good, chairman of the motor cavalcade through Long Island; Henry L.

Pittsburgh Mayor Jailed on Charge Of Embezzlement Pittsburgh, April 17 -The Mayor of Pittsburgh, wise-cracking William N.

McNair, spent more than an hour behind the bars of a jail cell today on a charge of embezzlement based on an ancient State law. The arrest was the most exciting of the long series of escapades that have kept him in the public eye since his election in 1933. He went to jail because he refused to obey an order by the county court sign a warrant to repay a $100 fine collected by a magistrate from a man accused of wirting number slips in a lottery, A constable made the arrest at the executive offices in City Hall. McNair, scoring a suggestion that he give bond, willingly went to jail where he laugher and joked with the prisoners, ate an apple and smoked a stogie. Representative Theodore L.

Moritz formerly the Mayor's secretary, obtained a petition for a writ of habeas corpus which the Mayor signed. It was granted by Judge Thomas Marshall. Attorneys said the law under which McNair was arrested, enacted in 1860, never before had been utilized under similar circumstances. It provides a five-year prison term and a fine for persons refusing to obey 8 court order to repay moneys. McNair has campaigned against number writers and lottery operators.

Out of Jail, he said: "I'll go back unles the charge Is withdrawn and the case is dismissed. It's a malicious attempt on the part of the racketeers to intimidate me, and I'm not going to be intimidated." Funeral Services For Robert Langel Funeral services for Robert B.

Europe's Peace Is Up to Hitler, Says Baldwin Attack on Dictators Hits Duce-Three Powers Draw Up Defense Plan a lumber yard at 144 Livonia refusing to sign a complaint after he had spent 10 minPennsylvania Avenue Magis- Il Duce Plans To Scrap Negus Continued from Page 1 defeated foe, no matter how brave. The duce has always liked to taste His triumphs in a lingering way.

The opinion is widely held here that the submission of the Negus and his chiefs will be turned into a great spectacle, for the Romans have inherited all their ancestors' proverbial fondness for shows of this sort. The crown prince has gone to Africa. It is believed that Mussolini will be personally present when the "tri-colore" is run up on the flagstaff to replace the emblem of the Lion of Judah. The Duce may send invitations to Geneva to have official representatives of the League adorn the occasion. He delights in dealing out left-handed compliments of this kind.

The press, which seems to have been given a rare temporary license in the discussion of foreign affairs, in addition to its frenzied joy over the situation in Africa, with great pride to the "position of power, which the genius of the Duce has won for himself in the affairs of Europe." According to the Giornale d'Italia, the Duce is "ardently wooed by France and Germany, and much respected and feared by Great Britain." What interests the masses in Italy today is not so much the details of the African peace or the program of the League of Nations, but the "proof abundantly furnished that Great Britain is no longer to be dreaded." Follow Ancestors "Italy," declares the Messagero, "has marched to its goal with unerring aim, It has renewed the memory of its glorious past and kept close to the footprints of the ancient builders of the empire." This assertion is true, literally and geographically. pillars on which the old empire rested one stood on the shores of Danube in what is the center of the Balkan States and the other rested firmly in the soil of Africa. The Italian diplomats are full of assurances to Egypt that it has nothing to fear from any new urge of expansion, but the Egyptians remember reading in school that at one time their land was a Roman province, "In this particular direction the Duce may not want to push his advance too far, at all events not just now. He is too careful to overplay his hand or to use his own words "stravincere." Nevertheless he must feel a new thrill the next time he reads the story of Caesar and Cleopatra or of Mark Antony's trip on board the famous barge on the Nile. These last few days he has covered one of the German Fuehrer's most powerful adjutants with unwonted honors--Herr Frank.

Nazi minister of justice. The German official was received most ceremoniously first by the King and then by Mussolini. Abrilliant reception was arranged in his honor at the renovated royal opera house, where Mussolini sat in the same lodge with the friend of Hitler. The Fascist hymn and the strains of the Nazi war song known as the Horst Wessel Lied echoed through the stately temple of art in raucous reiteration. Of course, these exaggerated attentions to the political missionary from across the Alps were intended for the benefit of Paris, which was thus warned as to what might happen if France would not or could not lift the sanctions at Geneva.

Second Warning It was the second warning signal to the French government, the first having been the present rearmaof Austria and the future rearmament of Hungary, both of them inspired by the Duce. All through Italy there is a marked growth of anti-British sentiment. In Rome the British embassy and the British consulate general are still under a special guard of carabinieri. From the Italian point view a touch of grim humor is imparted to the situation in Geneva by the appearance and prominent activity of Nicolas Titulescu, foreign minister of Rumania. The Italians refer to Titulescu as the "bad ghost of Geneva" or the "stormy patrel of European The news that he has the ear of the French premier, M.

Flandin, is. received here with some alarm. HARRIS LIKED BELL When the Washington Senators played Albany at Winter Garden, Bucky Harris was much impressed by the play of Sammy Bell of Vharlotte, second baseman for Albany. Worcester, April 18 (P)- Prime Minister Stanley Baldwin said today that Adolf Hitler, "more than any man living in Europe," holds the responsibility of keeping peace on the continent. In an outspoken political address, the British Premier admitted the League of Nations had failed in its conciliation efforts to end the Italo-Ethiopian war and warned Europe that peace and security are impossible unless all nations are ready to fight if necessary.

He aimed part of his remarks directly at Hitler and Premier Mussolini. Hits at Dictators His statements concerning the Reichsfuehrer were preceded by an expression of personal opinion in which he said: "I can think of but one dictator among the men now dead-and that was Augustus--who kept his head figuratively and not literally.
