PAGE FOUR THE DAILY TAR HEEL SATURDAY, JANUARY 16, 1937 The Moving o Finger o By C. W. GUmore Flint, Mich., Jan. 15 Auto mobile workers who have held strike positions in General Mo tors factories for the past few weeks marched out of their trenches today and gave leaders of both camps a chance to form peace negotiations. The strikers abdicated the fac tories after automobile man agers promised not to resume operations until a settlement had been reached. Union leaders de manded that agreement efforts last for a minimum of 15 days. The temporary truce was ar ranged in the office of Governor Frank Murphy, who called a con ference of factory and union heads in Detroit. Leaders met only after the strike had caused losses estimated at $10,000,000 and threw approximately il4,- 000 workers into temporary un employment. On the west coast, however, 40,000 longshoremen on strike been explained, meetings have for the last 78 days gave no hope been held previously in various for even a peace parley today, large cities where a wide variety In fact, international complica- of entertainment was available, tions arose when they seized a Large manufacturers gladly con Canadian tug carrying a load of tributed to this for the sake of timber.

"It has be come the most influential society in scientific fields in the world today. Many Nobel prize win ners will be here attending the sessions." Entertainment In further describing the so ciety, Dr. Cameron explained that "their various semi-annual meetings Have been held in many important cities- all over the United States New York, San Francisco, Kansas City, Pitts burgh, and next fall in Roches ter. It is very seldom that the society comes south for its conventions."" The American Chemical soci ety is the largest scientific body in existence. "Due to the large number of chemists in attendance," contin ued Cameron, "of necessity there will be small inconveniences for some, but real hard work for a few. Of course some entertain ment will be necessary. As has the incident. them. However it soon came Tacoma, Wash., Jan. 15 Fed eral officers grilled two convicts today in an effort to disclose evi dence in the kidnap-murder of Charles Mattson. r . Fred skirts of the capitol.

Haynes had sat unrecognized for 15 minutes in! the police station anteroom. De tectives have been looking for him since last Tuesday. Territory between Seattle and Everett is being combed, how ever, for some trace of a woman believed to be involved. Haynes had rented a cottage near here, and residents who identified the ex-convict said that a woman was his companion. ; ; The other prisoner; being held for ; questioning is Lee Fowler, long-timer for robbery. He has refused, it is said, to account for his whereabouts since December 27, the night young Mattson was kidnapped. Fowler is being held in solitary confinement. about that the entertainment be gan to amount to more to the delegates than the scientific as pects. Therefore the leaders passed regulations forbidding so much of it. Thus Chapel Hill is the ideal place for such a meet ing. Duke Passed Up "Duke university was consid ered first but soon found to be impossible and this university was decided upon. The expense here will be taken care of by a registration fee paid by each delegate. However, the big ques tion to be faced now is that of housing facilities. R. W. Grumman, director of the University Extension divi sion, is chairman of local ar rangements for the convention and explained the situation from his viewpoint. Plan Supported "We have the support of the North Carolina section of the A. C. S.," he stated. "The magni tude of the job has necessitated appointments of many commit tees to take care of all details. Registration is to take place in the library rotunda. Room as signments will be made at regis tration and, reservations will be made in advance. My guess is that we will have around 1,500 in attendance and since the dor mitories can only accommodate about 1,300, the fraternities must co-operate. Some members are liable to stay away from the convention because of poor hous ing facilities and already some have shown some concern over this. Students will be asked to leave their blankets, closet and drawer space. A rate of five dol lars per room in fraternity houses has been decided on if the delegate stays more than one night and $2.50 if he stays only one night." J. S. Bennett, in. charge of housing, explained that the sheets and towels will be obtain ed from a linen supply company and that the students' blankets will be laundered by the Univer sity for them. This will not ap ply to fraternities. They will be on their own and will do all managing. BULLETINS In A Sporting Way Continued from page three) gins with freshman gym classes, several hundred playing basket ball or volleyball. Soon after, trackmen, boxers and grapplers, botn varsity ana irosh, come; down for their necessary daily workouts. Coach Skidmore brings his hoopsters to the cen ter court at four, just at the same time when Herman Schnell's intramural outfits open competition, first on two courts, an hour later on four courts. Yearling 'basketball players turn up after supper for their work. That schedule allows every body plenty of time and room for their work or play. The only trouble is that sometimes a varsity basketeer breaks into an intramural game to retrieve a ball, or vice versa ; that a track man, taking a time trial, has to sidestep a loose ball; that a wrestler finds he cannot get his opponent's shoulders back be cause there's a ball under them.

It is England's entrance into the anti-communist pact drawn up by Hitler, Mussolini, and Japanese leaders. French officials feared the I move was a trap to isolate Rus sia and swing the balance of power in Europe to the side of the fascist countries. The pact England was asked to enter de mands its signers to prohibit the dissemination of Marxist doc trines through the Third Inter nationale. While diplomats fought over a table, Spanish fascists seized Estepona in a furious cavalry-' infantry charge and opened the way to capture of Marbella, the socialist government's lone sea port on the southwestern Medi terranean shore. . The fascists w.ere but a few miles from Marbella when the day's fighting ceased. A social ist counter-attack was futile.
