PAGE TITRETO V NYE QUIZCLAIMS Air Fleet Parts Shipped Piecemeal From England, Sweden And America Poison Gas Sales And War Threats To Be Revealed. FOUNDATION LAID BY CHAMBER FOR H0U1JMRAM (Continued rrum page one) Copyright, 1934, by th Associated Press) ' ' WASHINGTON, Sept. 15. AP) The senate munitions Investigating committee Intends to disclose next Week evidence indicating that Ger many has assembled a sizeable mys tery tleet of war planes. Data has been uncovered relating that the planes were smuggled In piece-meal through North Sea porta, and then assmbled. The committee has further evidence that such ship ments came from both the United States and Great Britain as well as Sweden. The senate Investigators will at tempt to prove that camouflaged en gines, parts and other equipment were brought In' under misleading labels and shipping Invoices. In addition to forthcoming testi mony along these lines, the com mittee lifted the cover today on material placed in the record late yesterday, almost with examination. Among other things were documents reporting that: . Huge stores of arms have been ahlpped from Italy into Austria and Hungary: , Sixty bombing and fighting planes, carrying full bomb racHs and com plete gas equipment, were delivered from Italy to Hungary by air: A great store of gaa waa delivered by rail from Italy Into Austria, and presumably Into Hungary, over a ten months' period "without anyone noticing the shipments." The committee. In addition, to air plane testimony. Intends to turn a spotlight next ween on the manu facture and distribution of poison gas. investigators held evidence to ,iay that four great powers are equipping themselves with celo phane gas masks against any pos sible future conflict. A committee investigator asserted It would be developed next week that not only the United States, but also Great Britain. Germany and Japan have such masks. Senator Nye (R.. N. D.) chairman of the committee, reported today that there had been a powerful effort to halt or at least slow down the investigation that already has caused loud International reverberations. He asserted, however, that the probe would continue to be "sweeping and complete." Most astounding to committeemen thus far have been revelations that Germany has been building up war stores despite the ban against such action in the Versailles treaty. Testimony has been heard indicat ing Germany kept her submarine building industry alive outside her own borders, has smuggled In large atorcs of American revolvers and ma chine guns, and built up her am munition dumps with thousands of tons of powder. The documents placed quietly In the records late yesterday were con fidential Bales reports of the E. I. DuPont De Nemours company of Delaware. These reports mentioned among other things that Poland believes a war with Germany Is unavoidable, and that arms scandals have been hushed when they came to light in central Europe.

Loans must be connected with not more than five properties, unless approved by the ad ministration. The plan has been tried. In several cities, Mr. Harder stated, and has been found to be absolutely sound, "The primary purpose of the act is to speed recovery," he continued. "It la the opinion of the government that possibly $1,600,000,000 will have to be expended to bring back homes to the condition they were in In 1929. Homes have been most seriously neglected during the depression. In this com munity today it is practically impos sible to lease a modern 'or semi-modern dwelling. There Is a field here for the campaign." Mr. Harder pointed out that there is no reason why a man cannot pay for improvements as well as for various- luxuries, and stated there should be a division of Income between the two. Ho explained that It would do a person Injury to encourage Improve ments when he cannot afford them, but that It would be a great benefit to encourage at the right time. "It would also be the height of folly to put any expenditure Into property which would be out of line with buildings in the surrounding neigh borhood of poor or Inexpensive con struction." Mr, Harder added. "The Medford National bank and the First National bank are already cooperating with the government in making the loans," the local chairmitn said, "and Ashland banks are also falling in with the program." Each applicant must give the fol lowing assurance to receive the loan, as announced by the housing admin istration: That ho owns the property: that the income of the signers of the note is at least five times the annual payments on the note; that his mort gage, if any, is In good standing; that there are no other past due encum brances or liens against his property, and that he will use the proceeds solely for property improvement. Cost of the credit will not exceed an amount equal to $5 discount per year per $100 of the original face amount of the note, lonthly pay ments are to be made at the place of business of the financial institution which is making the loan. The note may be paid in full at any time, with a rebate allowed, and more than one payment may be made at once. Re imbursement will be made for each payment allowed to fall in arrears. "Protection will be furnished," Mr. Harder said, "at a rate of 20 per cent of the note. This protection, made upon the gross loan, has been proved to be sufficient." Mr. Harder also stated that the loans placed no Hen or mortgage on any property,, and no appraisal or ex amination of a property is made. The lender, however, checks on the dis position of his funds, and must as sure himself of the fact that the money is used for remodeling, Mr. Harder said. Procedure of obtaining a loan, he explained, is to go to a banker or financier, and file a statement of the nature of the improvements. The lender will then make a check to see If the loan will comply with govern ment requirements. SCRIBES, CLERKS VANCOUVER, Wash.. Sept. 15 (AP) A superior court ruling hero today authorized a permanent in junction restraining the corporation publishing the Vancouver Dally Col umbian from increasing wages of ,he typographical staff at the expense of editorial and business office employes. Members of the editorial and bus iness staffs filed a friendly suit sev eral weeks ago seeking such a re straining order after the composing room employes had presented the management with a demand for wage increases. The writers and clerks based their action on a co-operative wage agreement entered into with the publisher in 1932 in which they agreed to share in the profits and losses. During the depression, they explained, they accepted wage cute with the expectation that salaries would be restored In bettor times. Their brief explained that now, with that expectation about to be realized, an increase for the mechanical de partment which whs not represented In the agreement, would imperil their reward. The court ruled that the publisher should enter into no contract whih would damage or Jeopardize the co operative agreement with the edito rial and business office workers.
