Machinists In Shipyards Ordered Back (B, the Associated Press) Resumption of full-speed produc tion on (500,000,000 worth of defense ship building In the San Francisco bay area depended today on the re sponse of striking AFL machinists to telegraphed instructions from their International executive council In Washington to go back to their jobs In 11 shipyards. Possibility that the machinists might go to work Monday was voiced by Harry Hook, San Francisco busi ness agent, who set a meeting Sun day to consider the council action. He said a "full and democratic dis cussion" would be held, followed by a secret ballot . Action on this biggest obstacle so far Interposed to the all-out ship construction effort came last night in deference to a "direct request" from President Roosevelt, the ex ecutive council announced. At the same time the two remain ing major threats to military air plane output were ended. A strike scheduled for midnight at two Pittsburgh plants of the air plane propeller division of the Cur tlss Wright company was called off at request of the defense mediation board. And the AFL machinists union at the big Consolidated Aircraft Corp. plant in San Diego announced rati fication of new contract terms by a 9 to 1 vote, removing possibility of a walk-out against Consalr, which holds $700,000,000 In bomber orders for the army, navy and Britain.

The prisoner, said Chief Landseth this morning, was identified by fin gerprints as the man wanted in Bos ton on two swindling and two con spiracy charges, involving $31,000. Von Wagoner was arrested yes terday on complaint of Oades J. Kenyon, Santa Barbara building contractor, according to Detective Captain William Farrar. Kenyon told police von Wagoner headed a group that tried to swindle him by using the ancient bunco game of "horseraclng" and "find the pocket book." Police are looking for two of von Wagoner's companions, known as Joseph Stewart, a fictitious racing commissioner, and a "Mr. Patter son," presented as an agent of J. J. Raskob, who planned to build a Spanish- villa. Police said Kenyon had been in duced to come to Tacoma for dis cussion of a contract to build the villa at Pebble Beach, Calif. He be came suspicious, however, when von Wagoner and Patterson found cause to delay discussion and turned to the subject of "horse racing." Kenyon said he had been allowed to find a pocketbook with $W0 In It and papers identifying Stewart as a racing commissioner. While Ken yon looked on, Stewart sent von Wagoner out with $675 to wager on a horse race and the return was $2, 000. Next Stewart wagered a $100, 000 letter of credit and von Wago ner came back with a $300,000 bank draft, explaining the "cash was too heavy to carry." The race bookmaker then said he would have to have either proof of the authenticity of the letter of credit or $100,000 in cash before he could honor his own draft of $300, 000. The other two men persuaded Kenyon to produce the cash. Kenyon assured them they could have the money in the morning, saw them to bed, and called police. Petrillo Chosen Head of Musicians Seattle, June 13 (JPy Unanimous' ly reelected president, James Caesar Petrillo vowed to delegates to the American Federation of Musicians convention Thursday that the famous Boston Symphony orchestra only one in the nation not a member of the union will be organized soon.

Sheriffs Posses Steal Rose Festival Show Portland, Ore., June 13 (P)Po- llcemen on horseback more or less stole the show at last night's Rose Festival pageant at the Multnomah stadium. Formation riding by the Portland Mounted Police, Marlon County Governor's Posse, Salem; Wasco County Sheriff's Posse, The Dalles Klamath County Posse, Klamath Falls, highlighted the evening.

Mr. Roosevelt's action coincided with authoritative disclosure that President Philip Murray of the Congress of Industrial Organlra tlons planned to match the adminis tration's campaign against subvers lve labor agitators with a "purge1 of CIO left-wingers who foment "outlaw" strikes. Mr. Roosevelt acted upon receipt of a telegram from President Dan iel Tobln of the AFL's International Brotherhood of Teamsters, Chauf feurs, Warehousemen and Helpers. Tobln, from Indianapolis, charged that because of his union's unequlv ocable support of Mr. Roosevelt in the national emergency, Bundists, Stallnltes, Trotzkyites and "other subversive organizations" are seek ing to destroy his organization. White House Secretary Stephen T. Early said that Mr. Roosevelt was vitally Interested in the develop ments. Strike Seizure Bill Amended In the House Washington, June 13 (IP) The house military committee approved proposals today which would per mit the president to take over strike' bound defense plants whose man' agementa refused to utilize federal conciliation or mediation services, They also would permit use of troops to prevent unlawful picket' lne. Drastic changes proposed by Representative Harness (R-Ind.) to the plant seizure bill approved by the senate yesterday were accepted but final action was deferred until Monday, when further amendments also will be considered. The amendments approved dlf' fered' substantially" from the bill passed by the senate yesterday, In that they contain no authority for the president to take over defense plants merely because the workers fall or refuse to abide by recom mendations of the mediation board, Members conceded, however, the Harness amendment permitting the president to use the nation's armed forces to "afford protection" to all workers who voluntarily return to work after the chief executive or ders production at the plants re sumed would virtually allow the government to take physical posses sion of such plants. They empha sized, however, that the Harness amendment would not permit the government to assume the manage ment of the plants. Tn the case of emnlovers who re, fuse to utilize government concilia tion and mediation facilities, the committee recommended that such refusal be construed as a refusal to cooperate with the government in the production of defense ma' terlals, and, therefore, under sec tlon D of the draft law, their plants could be taken over and operated by the government. Such employers would be subject to Imprisonment for three years and fines of not more than $50,000. Cleveland Defeats Cincinnati Reds Cooperstown, N.

Girl Shoots Father For Hard Spanking Kalamath Falls, June 18 () A 13-year-old girl who was spanked for quarreling with her 11-year-old brother was blamed by a coroner's Jury here today for the fatal shoot ing of her father at Canby, Calif., Tuesday night. The father, Ray Harpham, 38, Southern Pacific railroad telegra pher, was shot through the neck with a .45 calibre pistol. He was tak en first to Alturas, Calif., and then brought here where he died yester day. The children's stepmother, Mrs. Edna Harpham. testified at the in quest that her husband had severe ly spanked his daughter, Ramona, for quarreling in the night with her brother, Ray, and was return ing to the children's room to quiet further disturbance when he was met at the door by a blast from the pistol.

Something Between Hitler, USSR (This dftllr ftiturt, eonductd by DeWltt UacKenzle, Capital Journal war analrat. ll being written In hli abaenc, on vacation bj Fred Vanderschmldt). A review of half-obscured news over the cast month and a half makes it pretty clear amiss between Soviet Russia viic ropuria ui ucramn aemanas on the Kremlin, backed bv military pressure. But, while these demands may be military as well as political and economic, it would be rash right now to predict anything more than reluctant Soviet acquiescence In some of them and evasion, if possi ble, of others. The British, who have made some very bad mistakes about Russia in the past, are going into the present situation very thoroughly. Sir Staf ford Crlpps, their ambassador to Moscow, has come home to report and there is a highly authoritative hint designed probably for Russian papers to copy, that he may not go back. Stalin Lets Hitler Down A post-mortem examination of the brief war In Iraq makes out a good case for the assumption that Stalin let Hitler down rather badly on that oil country.

Nance ap peared before the Salem Realty board Friday noon and told of le glslaiton concerning federal hous ing which is now before congress Should the legislation fall of adop tion, federal housing will be discon tinued after Sept. 1. Nance sketched briefly the provi sions of the defense housing pro gram, which is In effect in Oregon in Portland and Pendleton. Under the department of federal housing, permission has been given to loan contractors up to 90 per cent of the assessed value of the completed building. However, he added, It must be established that there is a real need for construction and that the need will not be temporary in nature. Under the FHA approximately $50,000,000 has been expended In Oregon In the construction and re modeling of dwellings, Nance said. Senator Charles McNary wired the realtors that the President does not contemplate expansion of the air base program In the near fu ture. The telegram was In response to one sent the senator by the real tors concerning the possibility of establishing a base here. The realty board will take a va cation from Its weekly luncheons during July and August. t Washington Grange Favors CPA Plan Ellensburg, Wn,, June 13 (P) The Washington state grange was on record today in support of the Bone-McNary measure for creation of a Columbia power authority un der the department of Interior, with a northwest advisory board. The endorsement, voted yesterday at the annua! convention, represent ed a compromise on the question of federal or regional control of power projects on the Columbia river. Mediterranean i MUBRA PORT - 1W TAUFIGl;., "vL. IV list V New Amiss that something new has gone and Germany, and it supports i 50n t0 believe that Soviet economic help to the Reich has been very slim and Is not picking up. A few days after Stalin became premier of Russia and thus accept ed responsibility to the Russians for the way his policies are carried out, the Soviet union re-established dip lomatic, trade and consular rela tions with Iraq. At that time the Iraqis, led by the Rashld All Al Gal lant and backed by German prom ises and a few German planes, were fighting a war with Britain. No Help for Iraqis Almost at once there was a lot of talk about the Russians sending into Iraq what were, as in the Spanish war, cynically called volunteers. The Iraq radio reports, tunneled through Germany, gave off a great air of confidence in speedy Soviet aid, and it looked as if Hitler, too, ex pected it. However, so far as anyone has been able to find out, the U.S.S.R. did absolutely nothing to help the Iraqis to prolong the turmoil In Iraq, and the British cleaned It up. All this time Hitler, In seeking to cement conquered Europe into the solid political bloc which he deems essential for ultimate victory, was pulling France Into active collabor ation and had, Indeed, obtained the use of Syrian airdromes for opera tions against the British In Iraq. At length he told the French that he and Stalin had reached' an agree ment whereby the Russian Ukraine, In the new order of things, was to serve as a breadbasket for all the hungry, beaten folks of the Euro pean continent. French Put Story Out This looked pretty good to the French and they put the story out. wnat they either overlooked or Ig nored was a highly significant Sov iet agricultural report of May 23 which showed that spring sowings in soviet Russia were some 60,000, 000 acres behind 1940 and therefore that the Ukraine breadbasket, this year anyway, was going to be pretty light. It is a pretty good bet that Ger many did not overlook It. Therefore there Is at least logic behind the re port that Hitler is now demanding a lease on the Ukraine, so he can raise the wheat he needs himself. The alternative may be the threat of Invasion. Power Cooperation Urged by Bean Portland, Ore., June 13 VPj A plan of cooperation between public and private power companies In the Pacific northwest was urged yester day by Ormond R. Bean, Oregon public utilities commissioner. "Our observance and study of the power situation in Oregon and the northwest leads us to believe that the key to the situation Is a sue cessfully worked-out plan of co operation between public and pri vate power systems with the neces' sary interconnections and exchange of power," Bean said. "Today's conference seems to em phaslze this need." His statement was made at i federal power commission confer ence here, attended by represents' Lives of all public and private power systems in five northwestern states.
