BROOKLYN DAILY EAGLE. NEW YORK. TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 22. 1931 2 Hitler Faction Shifts Tactics On Laval Visit Fascist Germans Now Fear Brickbats May Help Premier in U. S.

sPotle Burean, Cambon. By GUY HICKOK Special Cable to The Eagle Paris, Sept. 22-An interesting -product of the publicity which has been given the proposed visit of Premier Laval to the United States to confer with President Hoover is the increased factor of personal safety that will accure to Laval on his coming visit Chancellor Bruening in Berlin. The Hitlerites were determined that this visit should be a failure. They were ready to hoot and throw bricks to make it so.

Now the most rabid fascist swastika wearer must realize that cabbage heads and other misiles thrown at a man likely soon to chat with President Hoover at his Rapidan camp, Laval's would argument enormously, that strength- France cannot disarm until German hate cools. Choose New Tactics They also realize that such tactics would have the effect of diminishing the pressure President Hoover might be inclined to exert on Laval to bring France around to the American viewpoint. Without the publicity attendant upon Laval's proposed visit to Hoover, Laval Briand would have done well wear tin hats under their silk toppers while in Berlin. Now, however, to hurt Laval and to weaken his disarmament thesis, the interest of the Hitlerites runs to making his Berlin visit as drab and uneventful AS possible for every brickbat now will count like a hundred before there was the suggestion of the Washington junket. Edge Gets Query Washington.

Sept. 22 -President Hoover has instructed Ambassador Edge if statements in the French chacertain to the effect that Premier Laval desires to visit the United States are correct and if so to arrange for a formal invitation to be extended later. White House offcials said if Premier Laval desires to discuss international matters, Mr. Hoover will be very happy to do Daughter May Go Along Paris, Sept. 22 (P)-Mile.

Laval speaks English, which her father is unable to do. It was learned today that President Doumer has done much to influence the Premier to accept President Hoover's invitation. The President informed was distinctly his duty to go to Washington and expressed the belief the French people would like him to make the journey. The formal invitation from WashIngton is expected to be presented by United States Ambassador Edge in time to receive consideration at Friday's Cabinet meeting.

And Ship's Pool Winnings Pay Duty ImposedMost of Gifts Lavished on Jimmy Abroad Are Admitted Free Including Famous Alarm Clock By ISABELLE The depression, it appears, last night. Customs men, going 12 bags after his arrival from than $151.20 in duty to charge More pleased than the Mayor over that particular slump was George Ringler of 270 Crown close friend of the Mayor's, who took care of the baggage, Coming down the gangplank from the Bremen, Mayor Walker thrust four $100 bills into Ringler's hand. Handy Pool Winnings "Tell the customs men to go the limit on my baggage," he said, "and pay for it with these.

I won them in the ship's pool." Mr. Ringler was a couple of centuries to the good when last seen departing from the pier. It wasn't that the Mayor was parsimonious. A dozen cities laid lavish gifts at his feet. Friends heaped others on top of those.

The Mayor himself was not abstemious when it came to buying abroad. He just happened to get things that came in duty free. Duty- Free Presents He brought a volume of eight colored etchings given him by the city of Carlsbad, scene of his unsuccessful attempts to get a rest. He brought another leather volume containing 20 etchings of views in and about Budapest. They were all original and signed and duty free.

A framed etching and a painting, also originals presented to him in France, came in duty free. Two large wooden crates in his luggage contained three dozen cutglass goblets, each about the size of a vase. And peeking through the reeds was a blue glass vase the Mayor purchased at a cost of about 1,000 kronen in one of Austria's glassblowing factories. Doll for' Little Girl Tucked away in one of his trunks was a big, blue-eyed doll which the Mayor bought in Germany for A little Brooklyn girl. And peeking thorugh the eeds a wicker basket was Admiral Togo.

A Japanese chow, presented to the Mayor by a Carlsbad barber. One of the Mayor's most prized acquisitions was a set of rainbowhued berets and -the kind he claims to have designed he certainly popularized abroad. and which And another gift he brought back and boasted proudly of was the one presented by the newspapermen of Paris. Knowing that modestly-clad Mr. Walker was his way to meet the Lord Mayor of London, with his splendid insignia and mace, the Parisian gentlemen of the press determined that New York's Mayor should not be outdone.

They bestowed on him therefore a long gold chain from which hung pandant a dazzling alarm clock. The Mayor told customs men frankly that he didn't know the value of some of the gifts he had brought home and had therefore failed to declare them. He insisted that all his baggage be subjected to a thorough examination and appraisal because, as he pointed out gaily, "the ship's pool pays for it." Medical Care for Child Before leaving the ship the Mayor announced that he expected to have 14-year-old Viola Stark of 191 Wyona brought back to this country in the near future for medical treatment. Viola, a victim of infantile paralysis, met the Mayor when he sailed for Europe several weeks ago. She WAS en route to Vienna for treatments at the time, traveling third class on the meager savings of her father and mother.

"I saw her in Vienna." the Mayor said. "and I am convinced that in going abroad she left home to get what she had on her own doorstep. "As soon AS I get settled. I am going to have her come back, and Dr. Schroeder will help take care of her." Gunmen Kill One on Errand As Peacemaker Shot on Way to Mend Family Row-Blonde Puts Other on Spot Two men are dead: as a result of gunmen's activities in widely separated sections of Brooklyn last night.

Women figured in both killings. One of the dead men was acting as peacemaker in a husband and wife quarrel. The other is said by police to have been "put on the spot" by a blonde. The dead are Joseph Grottale, 42 of 1836 3d and Benjamin Meyerson, 22, of 70 E. 90th exconvict and petty racketeer.

Grottale was shot and fatally wounded near E. 2d St. Avenue U. He died in Coney Island Hospital at 3:30 a.m. today.

On Peacemaker Errand He was found by George Woodward of 120 Vincent Lynbrook, watchman on sewer construction work there. Taken to Coney Island Hospital, he told police he was on his way to 179 Ave. when he was accosted by two men who asked if he were not Grottale. When he said that was his name they shot him five times then drew knives and slashed his nose, ear and throat. At the Ave.

address, he said, he. was to have met the brother-in-law of a woman in Harlem and arrange for a reconciliation between the woman and her husband. His offices had been sought by the woman, he added. Police withheld the woman's name. Meyerson was strolling along Hopkinson near Pitkin with a blonde young woman when two men stepped from an auto, opened fire and then fled.

The blonde also disappeared. Meyerson was killed instantly. Police are looking for a link between Meyerson's murder and the shooting of Max (Coco) Prince, a' gambler, at Coney Island, a year and a half ago. Meyerson was out on bail awaiting trial as Prince's assailant. He had been arrested number of times and recently completed.

Woman Wins Point In Suit Against Ex-Senator Elkins Court Grants Her Right for Preference and Sets Trial Date for Oct.

19 Miss Marie Allen Reynolds today won a point in her $1,150 breach of contract suit she has brought in City Court. Manhattan, against former U. S. Elkins of West Virginia. Judge Lippe granted her motion to give the case preference on the trial calendar and set the trial date for Oct.

19. Had the motion not been granted the case would not have been called for trial for three years because of calendar congestion Judge Lippe pointed out in granting motion. Miss Reynolds, who lives at the St. Regis, Manhattan, alleges in her complaint that Elkins made contract in 1923 to pay her $1,000 A month for life. She further alleges that the payments were made regularly until March, 1930, when she was paid only $850.

She is not suing to compel Elcontinue to live up to the contract, but only for the balance of the March, 1930, payment and the full amount for April, 1930. She Is Destitute The papers in the case do not reveal why Elkins contracted to make the payments. In his answer he acknowledges making the agreement and that he made the payments regularly for many years. His sole defense is that he received no consideration in return for what he obligated himself to pay in the contract. Judge Lippe said he granted the motion because of Miss Reynolds' affidavit that the payments have been her sole means of support; that she is virtually destitute.

unable even to pay for physician's services, and is in need of financial relief.

22 new conception of the size of molecules of gases, reducing them about one-third, is announced in the proceedings of the American Society of Civil Engineers. This reduction is based, the proceedings state, "on what may prove, to be a startling discovery that in 1859 Maxwell made an error" in his theory of the kinetic viscosity of gases. Clerk Maxwell's theory of gases has been used fast some of the calculations of astronomers about the and nature of the universe. The error, says the article, will involve changes in textbooks, handbooks and all chemical and physical tables. Britain to Bar Profiteering Continued from Page 1 reopen tomorrow, it was announced this afternoon.

The committee reached its decision lengthy session, in which prominent dealers aftevera, and brokers were consulted. Stock brokers favored a resumption of business and saw in the depreciation of sterling an opportunity for better prices for securities and industrial shares. A demand has arisen from investors since sterling depreciated and the Stock Exchange closed and several members said today that they had done more business in a few hours than they did in a week when the exchange was functioning officially. When the exchange reopens tomorrow, business will be conducted in an ordinary way, without restriction, it was stated officially. Gold Mines Favored The Street dealings continued during the afternoon with good volume in industrials.

Gold mines were most supported with rises of 2 to 10 shillings per share. The fact that the Johannesburg market was closed and the price of gold advanced brought considerable attention to gold mining shares. No gold was offered in the bullion market today, although arrivals consisted of 250,000 sovereigns and 484,000 sterling bars. The nominal price for gold was fixed today at 99 shillings and 7 pence per ounce against 84 shillings pence yesterday. Today's price was based on the United States dollar as the principal gold currency and the market took the rate at $4.15 to the pound.

Commodities improved further today. Tin rose £1 a ton, silver 1 penny an ounce, while cotton and wheat in Liverpool moved against buyers. Common Passes Bill Rushed through Parliament in record time and signed by a royal commission. the British Government's emergency measure suspneding the gold standard went into effect today for six months. The House of Commons passed it just before closing time last night in spite of half -hearted attacks by Labor back-benchers and the House of Lords required only two minutes to give it the necessary three readings.

The commission acted for King George, who is in Scotland. There was no division on the final vote but the government won majorities of about 100 on successive closure motions. Labor members opposed the bill chiefly on the grounds that economy measures already adopted necessary if gold payments were suspended. Snowden Assures Nation Chancellor Philip Snowden, who sponsored the measure, went on the air to assure the nation that the fall in the pound sterling would be "limited" and to invoke its confidence in the government's ability to weather the crisis. The consequences of the suspension, he said, "are bound to be disagreeable.

In some ways they may be serious, but they will not be catastrophic. The pound will not go way of the (post-war) franc or the mark. "The British budget is now the most securely balanced budget in the world. There is no longer any risk of an internal inflation and there are no longer any grounds for distrusting the essential soundness of our financial position." Regrets America's Losses He expressed regret at the plight of some Americans among other foreigners "who still have money deposited here and will be able to take it back -if they wish to take it back -in depreciated pounds, and will therefore suffer a loss in terms of their own currencies. We deplore that loss and have done all we can to avert it.

"But for the great majority of our people in Great Britain there is no cause for alarm or panic, I want to say most emphatically there is not the slightest cause for anxiety about the money you have in banks, or your money In savings banks. Avoid a panic." Newspapers affirmed and denied a report that a movement was under way to draft leaders of the Labor opposition into the National Ministry, now composed of Conservatives, Liberals and ostracised Labor members. Early Election Seen The possibility of an early election loomed once more on the strength of a meeting of back -bench Conservatives who declared unanimously in favor of an immediate appeal to the people on a protective tariff issue. They pledged unqualifled support to Mr MacDonald in the event that he led the way. The Daily Express, Arm believer in A high tariff, said the Prime Minister was prepared to call an election this Pall with a protectionist program on the basis of growing support among the Liberals for such a move.

Expect Legion To Drop Plans For Bonus Cash Fight on Dry Question ParadeElection Fight Looms Detroit, Sept. 21 (P)-The American Legion, in national convention, took time out today to display its strength and color in an all-day parade, while controversial issues rested with committees which will report tomorrow and Thursday. Resolutions on prohibition, including some proposing a stand for modifications and others asking A nation-wide referendum, were in the hands of the resolutions committee, which meets tonight. As A result of President Hoover's address yesterday, in which he disE cussed treasury, the and condition of of speeches the of national other leaders, including the National Commander, T.

O'Neil, offcials today 'agreed that action for further payments on the veterans' bonus is extremely unlikely. Legion officials told newspapermen they believe nothing further in the way of cash payments will be asked by the convention. A protest against the present interest rate of percent on bonus loans had strong support, however, including that of Commander O'Neil. Interest was centered more strongly on the possibilities of the prohibition question, an issue which had been kept off the floor of Legion conventions. Several States were prepared to push their resolutions to the point of carrying them to the convention if they should be shunted aside by the committee.

With the time for campaigning growing shorter the contest for national commander showed little indication of narrowing down. Nine candidates remained active, and it appeared that little would be accomplished in the way of compromise before the first ballot Thursday. One issue before the, convention appeared settled--Portland, stood alone in formally inviting the Legion for the 1932 convention, and. the selection of that city was expected tomorrow. Memory and martial music brought back the freshness of youth to 50.000 veterans today in the 13th review since the war.

The French Government is now bound to take a wider view of international finance, in the opinion of officials here, if for no other reason than France is sitting in the midst, of narrow the strait European of water crisis alone and separates her from the imponderable events in Great Britain, from considerations of the sheerest selfinterest, France cannot continue to regard herself as A self -contained unit on the European continent. Co-operation Likely In other words, what is now anticipated from the Washington viewpoint, is an ameliortion of the rigid and inflexible policies of France toward the basic problems reparations and war debts.

The atti- tude of France has ihtherto brought the French and American governments into conflict. In the future, it is the confident belief of the administration, the French Government will more inclined to co-operate with the United States. The British abandonment of the gold standard, with the financial, economic and social problems which it propounds, will have the inevitable effect of rendering France more dependent on the United States. France will awaken to a new sense of her own dangers. An understanding with the United States becomes, in this sense, imperative.

The visit of Premier Laval, which now seems certain to come about, thus takes on A new significance. The question of maintaining gold standard for France and the United States is the most important problem which Hoover and Laval could discuss. There is, however, the larger background of whether and how the Bank of International Settlements can be fitted into the new situation, whether and how the moratorium can be extended. what results can expected to flow from the general disarmoment conference scheduled to be convened at Geneva late this Winter. Pressing Practicalities These are all pressing practicall ties confronting the two governments.

The United States has just accepted an invitation of the League of Nations to participate in a "consultative" role in the deliberations of the third commission, which is considering the suggestion of the Italian Foreign Minister. Dino Grandi, for a naval holiday between now and the general conference, Not much ch is expected for result from this discussion, inasmuch as none of the governments will wish to suspend naval construction now on the stocks, for fear of throwing men out of work. The most that is Anticipated is a suspension on new appropriations, pending the meeting of the 40 odd Powers at Geneva this Winter. If the idea of complete suspension of naval construction pending the expiration of the London treaties in 1936 can be adopted at the general disarmament conference it is felt here that an ultimate concrete reduction in the world's naval strength, below the levels of the London treaties, could be reached.

The President would prefer, AS A matter of principle, that the German Government make the next move, either through a request, under the Young Plan, for re-examination of reparations annuities in comparison with German income or through a request for a two-year suspension of payments. One certain effect of British abandonment of the gold standard will be renewal of pressure President Hoover for an extension of the moratorium. American bankers are almost a unit in pressing this demand, to 'which the President has thus far turned a deaf ear. He is fearful that with American public opinion in such a complacent state drastic revision or cancellation might be forced on the American Government under organized pleas that the United States is responsible for the economic and social welfare of Europe.

ADVERTISEMENT Oust Reporter As Co-Author Of Capital Slam Christian Science Monitor Lays 'Merry-GoRound' to Allen's Pen Eagle Burean.

A Colorado Building. Washington, Sept. 22-Dismissal of Robert -S. Allen as chief of the Christian Science Monitor Bureau in Washington on account of his reputed part-authorship of "Washington Merry-Go-Round" is causing a great discussion in journalistic anwathington circles. Merry- Round" is an anonymous book published in August containing caustic criticism of, the Washington, leading starting with personalities President in Hoover.

The exact authorship never has been established although numerous Washington correspondents have denied writing it. The book has had a wide sale and is on several nonfiction "best seller" lists. According to Mr. Allen there never has been the slightest complaint of his work as Washington correspondent of the Christian Science Monitor. Some weeks ago, at about the time the book made its appearance, he received a letter of commendation from Frank Terrin, executive editor of the Monitor, for the excellent work its Washington staff had done during the Summer.

The next communication Mr. Allen had from the Monitor was a request for him to state whether he was the author of the anonymous "Washington Merry-Go-Round." Mr. Allen replied to the Monitor in substance that he considered this an improper question, that he was under no restrictions as to outside writing and that whether he had or had -not written the book was no proper concern of the Monitor's editor. Mr. Allen heard nothing in response until the expiration of week.

Meanwhile Time Magazine had published an article ascribing at least part authorship of "Washington Merry-Go-Round" to Mr. Allen. The magazine came out on Thursday and the following Saturday Mr. Allen was dismissed as the Monitor's Washington correspondent. The Monitor wrote that he was dismissed with regret, in view of "reports" that he had written part of the book.

The general belief in Washington is that Mr. Allen is part author, although he never has said, so. Allen was one of the youngest bureau chiefs in Washington. His dispatches to the Monitor were regarded AS well-informed and conservative. He accompanied the President-elect Hoover to South America in 1928.
