(Copyright, 1933. by The Associated Press.) Washington, 18. (P) An executive order directing the tariff commission to Investigate Imports to determine what if any restrictions should be put on foreign goods to keep them from destroying the domestic production price balance sought under the Industrial Recovery program today was reported well on Its way to the White House for President Roosevelt's promulgation. The order, giving the tariff com- OR POWER PEACE Thousand Men, Women And Children Take Part In Orgy. Body Burned In Public Square.

HANGING CLOSE TO HOME OF A JUDGE Victim Dragged From Jail After State Police Are Overpowered. Accused Of Attack on Woman. Princess Anne, Oct. 18. (iP) A negro accused of attacking an aged white farm woman was dragged from the Somerset county Jail tonight by a mob of more than a thousand men, women and children and was lynched.

He was hanged to an oak tree outside the town after the mob had stripped him of part of his clothing, attached a rope around his neck, and pulled him behind an automobile through the main streets of the town. Mob Ferrous. As the mob made Its slow progress toward the scene of the hanging, various members leaped at the negro, screaming and cursing, and repeatedly knocked him down. He apparently was dead when the crowd finally reached the oak tree. Later, the body was cut down and was taken to the public square where it was burned.

The rope was cut Into small pieces and distributed among members of the mob as souvenirs. The negro, George Armwood, was accused of attacking Mrs. Mary Dens ton, as 81-year-old woman, as she returned to her home Monday after spending the night with her daughter. No Trouble Feared He was brought to Princess Anne early today from Baltimore where he was taken Monday night for safe keeping. County authorities informed the governor yesterday there would be no trouble and reiterated this belief this afternoon in the face of rumors that a mob would attempt to seize the negro.

In breaking into the Jail, the mob overpowered a detail of 25 state police who had been sent to Princess Anne to guard Armwood. A number of the police were injured. The hanging occurred next to the home of Judge Robert P. Duer, who had attempted to dissuade the crowd early tonight when it first formed at the Jail. Judge1! Talk Futile.

The crowd, apparently Incensed at the Judge's remarks, first went to the Judge's home but moved to the neighboring house when they were unable to find a tree sufficiently large. The march to the final scene of the hanging was wild in extreme. The mob members seemed crazed, continually leaping on the negro, even after he fell to the ground and was unable to rise. One boy, apparently about 'I years of age, slashed the negro's ear almost off with a knife. After they had taken the negro to the public square and burned him, the mob members disbanded.

18. (fP) Heavy fines and jail sentences provided in the licensing provisions of the Recovery act were called pointedly to the attention of industry tonight by Senator Wagner of New York as the authority under which the National Labor board is acting. Wagner mentioned no names. Last week, however, he said Western Kentucky coal operators could be compelled to attend a hearing. Shortly before he spoke he had expressed confidence to newspaper men that the strike situation over the country would be worked out "if we keep our heads" and said a denial had been received from the Ford Motor company that Henry Ford "is unalterably opposed to collective bargaining" with his employes.

Question of Wagner, in his speech, said "the question frequently is raised whether the National Labor board has any power of compulsion over those who are reluctant to appear before it or to abide by its decisions." "I do not like to answer this question because when you talk about compelling a man to do something you make him forget that it is to his best interest to do It voluntarily. Compulsion is necessary only when there is opposition, 8nd there should be no opposition to a board which has demonstrated its willingness and ability to assist every group. "At the same time I want to stress the fact that the board has power. It is an essential part of the Recovery program and is working hand in hand with the Recovery administration. "Any group which flouts the decisions of the board may be placed under a code embodying the conditions approved by the board.

If the code is violated, the licensing provision and other penalties of the Recovery act may be Invoked. "There will be on escape for the (Continued on Page 2, Column 7.) C.C. ARGENTINE BEEF Fl Declares Imports 83 Per Cent Higher Than Year Ago. Lincoln, Oct. 18.

CP) Professor H. J. Gramlich of tho Nebraska Agricultural college today charged that corned beef from the Argentine had been purchased by the Federal government to feed C. C. C.

camp workers. Professor Gramlich said he had it on good authority that the Imported meat was used. During the first six months this year, he said, corned beef brought to this country from abroad exceeded by 83 per cent the quantity Imported during the same period a year ago. Conceding that a better quality Argentine article could be bought for the same money even after the payment of duties, Professor Gramlich expressed the opinion that the government should have more regard for its own producers than to buy abroad. DEPARTMENT FIGURES.

Washington, Oct. 18. UP) The Department of Agriculture said today that during the first seven months of this year 9,236,000 pounds of canned beef had been Imported from Argentina compared with 7,774.000 pounds for all of last year and 49.785,000 in 1929. It made public the figures after Professor H. J.

Gramlich of the Nebraska Agricultural college had charged that corned beef from the Argentine had been purchased by the Federal government to feed Civilian Conservation corps camp workers.

18. (P) Action to nmic nigh salaries or big business leaders was privately forecast in official circles today after the Federal Trade commission announced it was asking 2,000 companies to furnish data on the salaries of their executives and directors. Following President Roosevelt's inquisitive glance at movie salaries, the commission's inquiry was described in informed circles as a prelude to more definite action. The inquiry, authorized by a Senate resolution, is immediately concerned with gathering facts for Congress. What will be done with them will remain for Congress to decide.

There have been demands from some members for a redistribution of wealth. How far the President is inclined to go in this direction has never been definitely disclosed. The same Senate resolution ordered the Federal Reserve board to obtain salary data from all member banks in the Reserve system, directed the Reconstruction Finance corporation to report salaries paid by banks borrowing from it and in structed the Federal Power commis sion to learn about the compensation of public utility officials. The commission plans not only to require information about salaries but also details of compensation paid in bonuses or in any other form from 1928 to 1933. It also will require data on capital and other assets, on total payroll, and on executives' salary rates effective September 1, 1933.

Many economists have argued that it would be helpful if high salaries were spread in low wage brackets so as to increase the purchasing power of the people instead of increasing investments and specula tion.

the city receives 90 cents a day from the Federal government for each prisoner. "I was unaware," Woeste said, "that a contract had been entered into with the Federal government by the city for confinement of Federal prisoners at the city workhouse. I was startled that a prisoner sentenced for life had been committed to the institution, which is not basically constructed and in a manner catenated to handle major criminals, but intended only for minor offenders."

Almost from the inception of the codes setting wages, hours and trade practices, industrial groups have insisted they must bo protected from competition of foreign goods with low production cost. Since the charters have gone into effect, complaints have come in from business associations and labor groups and the like; but the administration has held to a slow and considered pace in dealing with tariffs. In view of tho fact that the Recovery act provided only for reducing- Imports if conditions warranted, the trend would be in effect toward higher tariffs if apy changes were made; whereas proposed reciprocal pacts would involve mutually easier regulations as between United States and other countries. BACKED UP BY I Test for North Dakota Move Planned by Railroads. Bismarck, N.

Oct. n.UP) The entire North Dakota national guard was ordered held in readiness by Governor William Langer today to enforce his embargo against shipments of wheat from the state. The embargo, effective at 12:01 a. Thursday, was proclaimed by the governor to call attention, he said, to the distress of farmers from low prices for wheat. North Dakota Is the leading wheat producing state this year.

In directing Adjutant General Earle Sarlcs to have every member of 1,300 strong national guard force avalable to, If necessary, aid enforcement of his order, Governor Langer said: Will Proceed Alone. "The embargo goes on after midnight tonight and North Dakota will go It alone despite unwillingness of other states to Join us." He referred to his request to the chief executives of six other wheat states to unite in the plan. Undaunted, Langer declared: "The embargo will be continued until wc get results," and expressed satisfaction with the statements of grain traders In Minneapolis that the embargo had helped some in bringing a rise in grain values there. The traders added, however, there was enough wheat in storage to run Minneapolis mills six months. Much (Continued on Pag 2.

Large Sections of Montana Have Snow BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS. The first general snowstorm of the season swept over large sections of Montana Wednesday. Tempera tures remained above freezing during the day but dropped as night fall came. In' many places the snow was preceded by rain. A light blanket of white covered the Great Falls area Wednesday night, and two inches of snow lay on the ground at Helena.

The snowstorm reached Lewistown Tuesday evening and apparently was moving eastward. Missoula has received more than an inch of precipitation in the last two days. At Helena, .59 of an inch of mosture has fallen since Monday. Government Cost Serious Problem Phoenix, Oct. 18.

Big Irriga tion Project Planned. Washington, Oct. 18.

An additional $9,500,000 in public works funds was allotted the Fort Peck dam and reservoir project in Montana today, bringing the total to $25,000,000. The additional money was neces sary, the War department informed the Public Works administration, for tunnels to divert the Missouri river during construction of the project. The Fort Peck dam will store water for the Missouri river improvement project which will make the stream navigable throughout the Middle- West. War department engineers, who are drawing the plans for the project, estimated the original allotment of $15,500,000 would assure work for 6.500 men during the first year of construction. Today's allotment was expected to increase the number of men who will be placed at work immediately.

The construction of a railroad, power line and rip-rap work and the building of a plant will be started immediately, it was announced. The Fort Peck allotment means the start of an irrigation, water conservation program near Glasgow which will aid materially in solving the Montana unemployment problem and go far toward rehabilitation or agriculture in that state, Federal officials said. NO DIFFICULTY EXPECTED. Glasgow, Oct. 18.

UP) Little difficulty in acquiring adequate lands for the Fort Peck dam and storage reservoir soon to be undertaken, was anticipated here today. United States Senator Burton K. Wheeler, here with Senator Lynn J. Frazier of North Dakota for a tour of inspection of the dam site, said the needed lands would be purchased outright or by condemnation, if necessary.

Vasser Falls From Scaffolding at Pres-cott Building. Harry A. Vasser, 322 Madison street, Prescott school janitor, is in the Thornton hospital suffering from a broken back which he received Wednerday noon when he fell from' a scaffolding in the school, dropped more than 15 feet onto the stairs and rolled down the stairs. The vertebrae in his back was fractured a few Inches above his hips and he will be compelled to remain in bed for three months or more, it is said. Mr.

Vasser was painting some woodwork on the ceiling above the main stairway of the school and had placed a scaffold from the bannister of the stairs to a stepladder. While standing on the scaffold, classes in the school were dismissed for the noon hour and the vibration caused by pupils passing in the hallways unsteadied the scaffold and made it fall, it was reported. Mr. Vasser tumbled about 15 feet to the stairs, striking on his back, and then rolled down the steps to the landing. He was rushed to the Thornton hospital immediately where X-ray pictures disclosed the nature of the injury.

The man was not otherwise injured, hospital attendants stated. Mr. Vasser was appointed to his position as janitor of the Prescott school by members of the school board shortly before the fall term opened this fall. R. P.

San Francisco, Oct. 18. The first step toward making Alcatraz island in San Francisco bay into a prison for the nation's most hardened criminals was taken today when army authorities here received instructions to vacate the disciplinary barracks there within 90 days and turn the island over to the Department of Justice. Evacuation by the army involves the transfer to other disciplinary barracks of more than 200 prisoners and the movement of 160 guards to other posts. It was said the army probably would retain the telephone and telegraph facilities on the island for the signal corps.

Cell Room For 600. Chosen because of its situation, which makes escape extremely difficult and precludes any possible contact between prisoners and their confederates on the outside, Alcatraz has cell room for about 600 men. It stands a mile and a half off the San Francisco waterfront and commands a full view of the Golden Gate. The island is of solid rock, rising about 60 feet above the ocean level and on its table-like top is built the prison of stone and steel which has housed intractable army men for years. One Escaped.

Army records show but one prisoner has ever escaped, and he did so by a ruse, disguising himself in the mourning clothes of an officer's widow and catching a boat to the mainland. He was soon recaptured. To a strong swimmer, inured to the cold water, the matter of getting from the island to the mainland is less difficult. Miss Anastasia Scott, 19. daughter of an army sergeant stationed at Alcatraz, swam from the island to the mainland yesterday in 45 minutes to become the only woman ever to perform the feat.

A few men have made it. iVo Decision Yet On Retail Code Washington, Oct. 18. OP) For four hours today key members of the Roosevelt recovery units argued the controversial retail code with its dispute encrusted cost-plus provisions, but at the end they apparently were no nearer agreement. Hugh S.

Johnson, the Recovery administrator, said as he left the White House that a final decision could not be reached "for a couple of days." Still foremost In official discussion of the dispute which has brought two of the major recovery administrations into conflict was a belief that President Roosevelt would be compelled in the end to take his choice between the stand of Johnson and. Secretary ARMY ORDERED TO ISLAND BARRACKS Hitler Reiterates Equality Demand. U. S. Mixed In Argument.

BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS. The French foreign affairs commission took: the stand Wednesday that the four-power European pence pact of Premier Mussolini was virtually useless as an, alternative in the disarmament tangle as II Duca himself was represented as desiring to Initiate four-power conferences seeking a way to break the jam. In this connection, it was recalled that the French premier, Edouaid Daladier, has insisted that II Duce's pact be included within the framework of the League of Nations, from which Germany has announced its intention to withdraw. Otherwise the situation shapes up in this fashion: Insists on Equality. Berlin Chancellor Adolf Hitler plainly reiterated the Reich demand for equality by declaring Germany will "attend no conference, enter no league, agree to no convention and sign nothing" until this has been granted.

The chancellor again brought to the front his ringing declaration of last Saturday that Germany will not be treated as a second-class nation, since "our honor Is above all." Geneva Mussolini was described as sounding out the other powers concerning the advisability of convoking the four-power conversations at Strcssa, Italy, to pick up the disarmament burden.
