Feb. 19 (U.R) When your boy friend slugs you In a night club and breaks your jaw, that's love, Lillian Roth said today.

Knudsen expressed the belief today that attempts to prevent work stoppages in defense industries by "overall" legislation might precipitate an industrial breakdown such as occurred in France. At the same time the director of the Office of Production Management gave partial approval to a proposal by Representative Smith (D Va.) to require a "cooling off" period in employe-employer disputes before a strike could be called.

Knudsen made the statements in response to questions at a House Judiciary Committee hearing on labor difficulties in defense plants. The defense production chief told the committee he based his opposition to "overall" legislation on his own observation of what happened in France when the Blum government fixed wages and maximum working hours by decree. The United States has established minimum wages in some industries and does not limit the number of "hours that can be worked.

Balkan experts agreed that there might be serious complications to upset German plans within the next few weeks, but generally they expressed doubt that Britain could send to Greece sufficient forces to stop any big-scale German attack on Greece.

Miss Roth of the stage and screen, who married Weiner here last Kail after he broke her jaw in a New York hot spot, signed a complaint In the hospital, charging him with assault with a deadly weapon, namely, their telephone. She also accused him of stealing $1,100 and her automobile.

"We can only Judge the future by what has happened in the past." he said, "and there has been noth ing very serious in the last six months or so."

A Harriman Goes Abroad in 2 Weeks Washington, Feb. 19 (ft W. Averell Harriman, President Roosevelt's newly appointed defense expediter, planned today to leave within the next two weeks for London to begin co-ordinating the aid-to-Bntain program.

The 49-year-old financier, chosen yesterday by Mr. Roosevelt, declined to discuss details of his assignment. London itself will be familiar ground to Harriman, who said he had been and on ever since I was a boy." Although he inherited a large estate from his father, E. H. Harriman, noted railroad builder, he made a name for himself in diverse fietds.

Connally said it was his belief that the Axis powers of Germany. Italy and Japan hoped to dominate the world. "This compact of aggression and conquest." he declared, "is an armed threat to the security of the United States.

Great Britain, with superb gallantry, in a solemn pledge with fate, is pourinR out- the blood, not alone of her soldiery, but of her civilian population in stemming the tide of world dominion." To help Britain, he said, the "lease-lend bill proposes to furnish supplies and munitions, but not men." Hits Dictator Charge Connally said the charge made oy opponents oi uie meanure uiai it would make President Roosevelt a "dictator" was "specious and mischievous." There is nothing in the measure, he said, that would give the President any authority over the lives or liberty of any American citizens. "I submit." he added, "that the bill gives the President no power over the prop-rty of a American citizen except indirectly-through taxation which shall have been previously provided and enacted by the Congress of the United States. "Whatever power is given to the President to procure arms and munitions of war supplies must be exercised in the normal, legal way by purchases and by the payment of compensation, as is guaranteed by the Constitution of the United States and the laws enacted thereunder." Connally said opponents had chareed the British aid measure was a "war" bill under which the President might commit some art which would involve this country in war. He called that charge "an attack upon the sincerity of the President and upon his oft-declared intention to keep America out of war," and said "it Implies that he is le.ss I patriotic than those who bring the chaw.

An examination of Weiner' apartment led police to believe he had left the city. Miss Roth had only one good eye, her right, big and brown. Her left was circled with red, white and blue, plus some lavender and green, The bridge of her nose was scarred. (Thai's where the telephone landed, she said.) Miss Roth accused her husband of working on her at regular In-i tervals with broom handles, ash trays, fire tongs, boudoir chair, perfume bottles, fists and such other weapons as were at hand. "But he'd always talk me out of calling the police." she said.

7IL 9 P. M. i ft us Turkey in event of a Nazi thrust through Bulgaria, and of an agreement reportedly reached last week with Yugoslavia. IWell informed sources in Athens told the United Press that no German pressure had been put on Greece to make peace with Italy and cited a communique of the official news agenay, issued last Saturday, that Greece would fight to the end. They said that the Turkish-Bulgarian non-aggression declaration had not altered existing commitments among Balkan nations.

That Yugoslavia would maintain strictly a hands-off policy in any German move in Bulgaria was seen by some observers in reports from Sofia that Premier Dragisa Cvet-kovic, who talked with Adolf Hitler last week, probably would go to the Bulgarian capital to draft a reaffirmation of the Yugoslav-Bulgarian non-aggression agreement. There was no official confirmation, meanwhile, of newspaper reports from Bucharest that King Boris of Bulgaria had gone to Ger many, possibly to ask that his conn- ty be given an outlet to the Aegean Sea through eastern Greece.

He set forth that he was born in Norway on Feb. 26, 1885, came here May 16. 1904. took out first papers the following year and duly obtained his final papers. He added that he had been the master of American ships during the last war and had voted since 1921.

When Federal Attorney Harold Kennedy today pointed out that this date would have had the applicant naturalized before he even had arrived here, Jude Clarence G. Gal-ston dismissed the application. Today's development leaves Mr. Juell in the position that being already a citizen, according to his own Brooklyn Federal Court affidavit, he cannot now apply as an alien for naturalization, while precluded from exerrising the privileges of a citizen because he Is legally barred from establishing his claim of citizenship.
