Fraulein Cries As Confession Read in Court RedHaired German Girl Loses Poise in Trial for Espionage Statement Read Despite Protests of Attorney for Accused ! NEW YORK, : Oct. 20--A frightened - eyed German girl. Fraulein Johanna (Jennl) Hof xoan, 26, alleged "payoff" agent of a German spy ring, wept today as a statement was read in fed eral court quoting her as saying " she helped steal American mili tary secrets because "I belieTed I was doing my duty to my father land." . . i If convicted, the red-haired fraulein and two co-defendants face it maximum sentence of 20 years in prison.. The statement, described by Assistant US Attorney Lester C. Dunigan as a "confession," quot ed Miss Hofmann as admitting she acted as a . courier., of purloined US army and nary secrets to her " superiors In Germany. Uenuan Girl Loses Poise As the alleged confession was read, the smiling German girl lost her poise for the first time and dabbed nervously at . her lips with a handkerchief. Her eyes brimmed with tears when the phrase "duty to my fatherland" was read. The statement. Introduced over the shouted protests of Miss Hof mann's attorney, George C. DIx. who asserted his client was an "innocent tool" and the victim.' of a "frameup'.iuoted the Dresden born fraulein as admitting she knew the inner workings of the spy plot. . Naming Karl Schlueter, fugitive defendant, ands Guenther G us tar Rumrich, 32, former US army ser geant who' has confessed and tes tified for the government, the purported confession quoted Miss Hofmann as saying: "Schlueter in my presence ob tained from Rumrich a signal code, army and navy registers and other data, and I put it in my handbag." . In another part, the confession said: . - " S10OO for rians Of Carriers "Schlueter told me Rumrich would be paid $1006 -for .. the plans of the US aircraft carriers Enterprise and Yorktown." Rumrich already has testified that he plotted to steal the air craft carrier plans by forging Pre sident Roosevelt's signiture on bogus White House stationery, or dering tha navy department to deliver the plans to the ring. In the 9 statement, Miss Hof mann, who was working as a hair dresser on the North German Lloyd liner Europa when she was seized by G-men last February, al legedly acknowledged that she In variably carried all the incrimin ating documents to and from the boat. Correspondence Done in Code . The statement quoted her as saying Schlueter had told her he was an agent of the German intel ligence service, that he gave her a code book and instructed her that all correspondence should be con ducted in that medium. Today's session marked the end of the -4-day direct examination of Rumrich, who testified that after his. arrest Miss Hofmann bit terly reproached him and accused him of being an American spy. He said that when his capture exposed the ring, he met Miss Hofmann in the New York FBI headquarters and told her he had admitted his guilt. - "She didn't believe It," Rum rich said. "She said it was incred ible. She used the German Words nlcht wahr it's not true." "Later she accused me of being an American spy. She used the German - phrase which means birds of a feather'."

Victory Germany Halts Hasty Division Of Czech Land Decision to Be Guided by Determination of , Nationalities Communists Outlawed by Decree of Government in Prague BERLIN. Oct 20.-J)-The Hit ler government raised the stop sign against Hungary today In, a friendly : but unmistakable objec tion to any hasty partition of what is left of the republic of Czecho slovakia. ; Hungary, remnant of the pre war Auatro-Hnngarlan empire, is anxious to obtain some sizable portions of Slovakia in the .wake of Germany's acquisition of Su detenland. Poland, created out of western Russia by post-war treaty, is re ported to want a division of an other portion of Czechoslovakia Rnthenia among herself, Ruma nia and Hungary. Germany Stalls Other Trades To all the rumors of imminent trades which would remake the map of eastern Europe, Germany has replied unofficially that the remaining 'minorities questions will be reached in good time. Moreover, informed nazis have indicated that when that time comes, the decision will rest with Germany and Italy, and .will be guided strictly by a determination of predominant nationalities. While reports of border trou bles issued from Hungarian-Slo-vakian as well as from Sudeten Bohemian borders, the Czechoslo vak government took action which was regarded as an added index of a turn toward the political right. Czech Communists Are Outlawed In Prague the police outlawed the communist party and suspend ed its newspapers in Bohemia, Moravia and Silesia. Previously Slovakia had outlawed the com munists. That left them Integral as a party only in Rnthenia, the easternmost tip of the republic, and in that area they were consid ered distinctly weak. Prague also rounded up an un estimated number of Jews in an effort to meet the vexing refugee problem Former, residents of Su dctenland by tlrVousands, flee ing sectors into which the German military marched after the "peace of Munich," have streamed into Bohemia. Though the Czech general staff and DNB, the official German news agency, said a half dozen persons had been killed in disor ders on the Sudeten - Bohemian border,! the German administra tion in1 the newly-acquired areas prepared to take control from the hands of the military and give it to the civil authorities. BUDAPEST, Oct. 20.-0P)-More than 100,000 excited Hungarians demonstrated in the center of Budapest tonight demanding a common Polish-Hungarian fron tier and shouting, "Give us arms."

University students carried Slo vak, Ruthenlan - and " Hungarian deserters from the Czech army through the streets shoulder-high. Several speakers demanded the dismemberment of Rnthenia, the autonomous Czechoslovak ian province. In the face of claims by Hungary and Poland for territory.

Detroit Chief States Unions Red-Influenced Police Head Says Crash Coming if Communists Are not Removed Testifies Strikes Were Instigated by Orders of Cqmmunists WASHINGTON, Oct. 20.-P)- Fred W. Frahm, Detroit's super intendent of police, told the house committee on un-American actlvl ties today that unless communist influences are removed from the city's labor unions an "awful crash" is coming up and "a lot of people are going to get hurt." With indignant emphasis, he testified communists "instigated 75 per cent of the numerous strikes which have occurred In the Detroit area in recent years. Evi dence is plentiful, he added, that "communists dictate" the policies of the unions. Union Members "Dissatisfied" As a result, he continued, many union members have grown "dis satisfied," are "dropping out" or stopping their dues payments. "So that," Chairman Dies (D- Tex.) interposed, "the communists are actually destroying the unions?" "There is no question about that." "Membership Is falling oft? Men are quitting in droves? Is that right?" "Yes, sir." Another witness, John P-Mc- G 11118, secretary of the Detroit conncil of the Knights of Co lumbus, testified communist or ganizations have collected "thou sands and thousands of dollars in Detroit," for which no accounting had even been given. States Communism Is a "Racket" "They take the American people for suckers, he said, "and laugh about it afterward." He added that communism was "a racket" and had "taken the American people for a beautiful ride." James Mitchell of Detroit as serted communists a p p a r ently "have a lot of influence on John L. Lewis, head of the Committee for Industrial Organization. A member of the CIO United Auto mobile Workers, he said that com munist members had threatened to kill him if he revealed any information about their activities. He asserted that in the desk drawer of the president of his local, Lloyd Jones, he had found a "communist flag." " This he displayed with a flour ish before the committee, a red oblong with scalloped edges bear ing in gilt letters the words "com munist party." Rep. Mosler (D-O) asked Frahm many questions as to whether he had had any help from the state of Michigan in putting down the strike situation. The answer was that he had had none, but Frahm later told reporters that he had not asked the state for any. "Guards" Walk off With Speech Fund GREEN BAY. Wis.. Oct.

Most of us have recognized for years that Oregon was a backward state, politically, in not copying the "ef ficient" methods of boss-ruled eastern communities. The cor rupt practices act forbids some of those things and now, out of a clear sky, comes a reminder that the Knox liquor control act also takes a h a n d in telling people what they shouldn't do about poli tics. . ' Imagine a precinct on the East Side of Little Old New York back in the old days, if the corner sa loonkeeper couldn't pungle up a sizeable contribution for Oils fav orite candidate or party. But beer dealers or anybody else in Oregon who has a license from the liquor control commission Is forbidden to make any such contributions. It's the law. i It's also Illegal to solicit funds from state employes and Illegal for them to contribute to any campaign fond. That's in the corrupt practices act, but probably it's news to a lot of people and good news to state employes of Scotch tendencies. r There were a couple of lively political meetings In these parts Thursday night, one sponsored by the Good Government club at the old high school and the other by the county republican central committee at Woodburn.

Japa Troops n rt( 20 Miles off " - No Panic Seen in People not Evacuated From -Stormed City Japanese Column Circles Chinese to Attack hy Back Way " HONKONG, Oct. 2Q-(Xy-T he' defenders of Canton tonight were hastily digging trenches and throwing up barricades in the streets, apparently in anticipa tion of a last-ditch -struggle with the .Japanese within the south China metropolis. The 100,000 persons remain ing .in Canton after the exodus of hundreds of thousands of non combatants were showing no fign of panic even with semi official Japanese reports placing one-fast-moving column of in vaders within. 20 miles of tke city. French forces defending the Insular, foreign settlement, Sba meen, were rushing their own barricades to completion. Can ton authorities canceled plans to leave the city. Advance Column Risks Defeat The Japanese reports indicated the advanced column was risk ing defeat at the hands of the numerically superior Kwangtucg provincial troops by Its rapid "back door" campaign against the. metropolis. These advices said the column had side-stepped Chinese forces arrayed near Tsungfa, 30 miles northeast of Canton, and was expecting to strike a lightning blow at the primary defenses cf the city by a drive down tne Tsungfa highway. By such a fast advance the Japanese exposed their flanks to Chinese attack. A Japanese com munique said the "back door" campaign also had ' developed a drive- toward the.- Canton-Hankow .railway apparently an ef fort to cut oft Canton from 11th hour aid from the interior. Nut Cracker Plan Japan Strategy The whole campaign, count ing a force, reported thrusting directly westward along the Can-ton-Kowloon railway, appeared to be - developing into the "nut cracker" assault favored by Jap anese tacticians. Chinese military authorities denied the Japanese claims ef rapid strides toward Canton, in sisting that Tsengshln, which the Japanese said was taken yester day, and Sheklung, which the Japanese said , they had entered on the same day, were still ia Chinese hands. Tsengshln' was reported by the Japanese to have fallen im tbe "back-door" drive. Sheklung is on the Can ton-Kowloon railway" less than 60 miles east of Can ton. If the Japanese advices were true, the mechanized force driv ing southwest from Tsungfa bad gone about 90 miles since Jap anese transports landed its sou o China' expeditionary force at Bias Bay eight days ago. The Japanese communique also referred to fighting last Friday and Saturday at Walchow, north of Bfas Bay. The report said the Chinese lost 1.400 killed ard wonnded, 210 taken prisoners. 150 trucks, 40 trench mortars and 60 machine-guns in tbeir defeat there. Youth From Maine Elected FFA Head KANSAS CITY.
