The Czechoslovak! a-Qerman situa

Tokyo and to the Burgos insurgent
regime,
An opposition member of parlia
ment asked If the British proposed to
do anything "at all apart from hold
ing up their hands In horror." To
which the prime minister replied:
"If we could hold up the hands of
other people we certainly would do
so."
With the Spanish non-intervention
committee finally In accord on a
plan to withdraw foreign soldiers
from the "Internationalized" civil
war, a Spanish government spokes
man in Paris admitted the "possi
bility" of British-French mediation.
In Paris and London it was be
lieved that troop withdrawals would
be Impossible without a pause In the
war which, despite strong government
resistance on the Deruel-to-the-sea
front, brought insurgent success near
Albocacsr near the coast.
The fall of Albocacer would open
the way Ipr a push southward along
the Mediterranean on Castellon de la
Plana and Valencia.

MARSHFIELD BOY
OF
E
Broken Neck Fatal For
Thomas Armstrong, 20
Death 48 Hours . After
' So. Riverside. Accident.
Medford's first traffic fatality of
1938 was recorded last night when
Thomas Foster Armstrong, 20-year
old Marshfield youth, died In Com
munity hospital from a broken neck
sustained In an .automobile acci
dent on South Riverside avenue
Wednesday evening at 8:30. -
Armstrong died at 7:45 o'clock
from what his attending physician
described as a crushed fracture of
the fifth cervical vertebra, which
had caused complete paralysis of
the legs and partial paralysis of
the arms, due to the Injury to the
spinal cord.
The body. In charge at the Perl
funeral home, will be shipped to
his home in Marshfield tomorrow
for- burlai. County CorQner Prank
Perl said there would be no in
quest. Armstrong's death came a little
less than 48 hours after the De
Soto roadster he was driving north
on South Riverside crashed into a
parked Ford coupe belonging to C.
C. Proctor, employe of Consolidated
Freight Lines. Inc. After striking
the left rear fender and wheel of
the Ford , parked in front of the
freight office, the De Soto carromed
off. Jumped the curb and continued
into a vacant lot for 126 feet, ac
cording to the Investigating state
police officer.
Landed On Neck
Armstrong was thrown clear of
the car and apparently landed on
his neck on a two-by-four board
in the vacant lot, police said. Arm
strong's attending physician explain
ed there was a long mark on the
right side of his neck. Following
the accident, he was rushed to Com
munity hospital In the Perl ambu
lance, and never fully regained con
sciousness. His doctor said he got
steadily worse despite all efforts to
save his life.
Mr. Proctor, in a city police report
of the accident, stated that his car
was parked at the curb 30 feet
from the lighted Intersection on the
right side of the street, headed
north. It was parked directly In
front of the freight office at 445
South Riverside avenue.
No Eye Witnesses
There were no eye witnesses to
the crash, according to state police.
Louis Vance Stone, 34, who lives
near Voorhies crossing on .the south
Pacific highway and who was a
passenger in the DeSoto, was un
injured. Stone told state police that
Armstrong was forced to swing his
machine into the parked car by the
approach of an oncoming auto on
the wrong side of the street. Police
believe the Armstrong car was trav
eling at a high rate of speed.
Armstrong had been visiting for
a few days with Stone, and was to
have returned to Marshfield yester
day. They had both been employed
In a lumber camp In the Coos bay
area.
The youth was the son of Mr. and
Mrs. Edward Foster Armstrong of
Marshfield.

OF
FRUIT,
PAY RATES
Objectives Of Hearing Here
June 11 Clarified .By
Local Packers All Inter
ested Invited To Attend.
An erroneous Impression prevails
here that a proposed reduction In
packing plant wages Is the primary
subject to be considered at the hear
ing set by the stats bureau of labor
and welfare commission for June 11
at 9:30 a. m. In the Jackson courv
circuit court room, fruit men staWa
today.
The hearing was requested, the
fruit men said, primarily for the
presentation to the state weflare
commi5lon of a recommendation for
the segregation of the fresh fruit
industry and the canning Industry,
It being maintained that the two
industries are not comparable, oper
ating under different conditions and
In different localities.
Second Objective
Another object of the hearing, the
fruit men stated, Is to consider re
establishment of the minimum hour
ly rate of wages Tor women workers
engaged only In the fresh fruit In
dustry. It' was explained that the
labor commission had nothing to do
with the wage scale of fruit packers
actually engaged In wrapping fruit.
So far as local wages are concerned,
the hearing wilt affect only the min
imum compensation required by law
to be paid women workers engaged
in sorting or like tasks in fruit
handling, the spokesman for the
fruit Industry related.

the hearing has been appointed" by
