BATON ROUGE, July -Developments ranging from Governor Earl K. Long's command that everyone be sent to prison, to official accusations of forgery of two dead men's names, today emphasized the far-reaching spread of the tumultuous Louisiana State university scandal. There were: 1. Arrest by federal authorities of Eugene Barksdale, assistant construction superintendent at the university, on of wands conspiracy James Marshall other persons unknown to divert and use WPA labor and material to private purpose." Marshall, a WPA foreman, and George Caldwell, former superior to Barksdale, previously were arrested on similar charges.

2. Announcement by Attorney General David M. Ellison that the name of former Governor 0. K. Allen, who died in office in January, 1936, clearly had been forged on $118,000 of university bonds used by Dr.

James Monroe Smith in market operations while he was president of university, and disclosure he had available nearly $2,000,000 university bonds, most of them of unauthorized issues, of which $502,000 in bonds still are missing. Another forgery of a dead man's name on other bonds used by Smith also was alleged. 3. Declaration by J. Fair Hardin, special assistant attorney general, brought into the case by Governor to handle criminal prosecutions, that investigations thus far show minutes of the university's board of supervisors had been forged, $400,000 of university funds embezzled and $475,000 of forged bonds issued in its name; and forgery of Governor Allen's signature on hundreds of bonds in two other issues.

4. An intimation by Governor Long the state legislature may be summoned in special session, and disclosure by Hardin that Long told him "I don't, want anybody made goat. I want anyone who is Innocent to be persecuted, but I is guilty sent to Angola: (Louisiana state penitentiary). These are the only instructions I have." WIERD KIDNAPING IS BEING PROBED (Continued From Page 1.) Mrs. Sylvia Hardley, ranch housewife; Mrs.

Gertrude Farley, laborer's wife; Mrs. Mildred Ainsworth, Manteca housewife; Jess and Leo QuinIan, brothers who are Manteca laborers; William Bergman, Stocktion, and Fred Abrallah, Stockton night club operator. All except Mrs. Ainsworth, who had not been arrested, were held under $50,000 bond. Sheriff Martin Ansbro, Chief Deputy Sheriff Louis Totman and Deputy Bichael Camlis said they had "several theories" for the motive back of the asserted kidnaping, but declined to disclose them pending further investigation.

The officers said they had learned Middlecoff. Abdallah and certain of the others forced entry into the Chadd home, struck Mrs. Chadd and then carried Mrs. Emery away. She was placed in an automobile and driven to San Francisco.

Mrs. Inez Sharp, maid at the pretentious Chadd home, spread the alarm. Sheriff Ansbro said Middlecoff received a $75 monthly allowance from mother and recently had been trying to get her to sign over to him property valued at $200,000. He quoted Bergman and the QuinIan brothers as saying Middlecoff asked them to help him get his mother, who was sick, away from the influence of Mrs. Chadd, who assertedly was ill-treating her.

They said they had no idea of participating in any kidnaping.

Forster demanded that Poland give up privileges to store arms on the so-called Westerplatte, on the western shore of Danzig harbor. This Polish munitions dump on the fringes of the city of Danzig long has been subject of quarrels between Poland and Danzig in the League of Nations.

He warned Poland that Danzig had adequate defenses against any "aggressive" action the Poles may be contemplating. Strained relations between British and Japanese military, forces received when the Japanese commander in Tientsin rea. fused to receive the visiting commander of British troops at Hong Kong. The snub came as the British officer, Major General Arthur E. Grasett, sought to call on Japanese General Masaharu Honma to maintain first-hand relations carried on prior to the Japanese blockade of the British and French concessions.

In northern Italy some 150,000 Italian-Germans appeared to have been given three months to decide whether they wanted to leave, their homes and become Germans stay here and see their children and grandchildren grow up as Italians. Legally they already are Italians; they have been since the treaty of St. Germaine gave Austrian South Tyrol, then a part of the Austro-Hungarian empire, to Italy as a World war spoils. By physique, language and dress, however, they and their ancestors have been German or Austrian for hundreds of years. The decision was forced upon them by an agreement which officials said was reached in a week ago between Italy and Germany.

Such details as settlements and transportation remain to be worked out. In Berlin "man smuggling" was reported going on in both directions on the Polish-German frontier. Hundreds of Polish Jews under Nazi compulsion were said to be cn the border attempting to enter Poland, while German, residents of Poland were trying to get back home against the official Polish will.

Catherine Pennell, 116 South Dakota, was dismissed yesterday from St. James hospital, where she has been a patient. LEAVE HOSPITAL Curtis, Twin Bridges; Emmett Malone, East Park, and Bill Peterson, Leadore, Idaho, were dismissed yesterday from Murray hospital. TWO ADMITTED Harry Seccomb, an infant, 171 East Center, and James H. White, 1829 South Arizona, were admitted yesterday for treatment in Murray, hospital, NEUTRALITY ACT MAY BE DELAYED (Continued From Page 1.) that it would be difficult, if not impossible, for President Roosevelt's followers to defeat such a motion in view of the desire to avoid prolonging this session.

One administration senator, who asked that his name not be used, said he thought that if the Roosevelt were beaten in committee, President might issue a forces, statement saying Congress could be called into session if war in Europe appeared imminent. This explained that, to his way thinking, aggressorsenator, minded nations of Europe thus would be left in doubt. It has been the contention of administration officials that repeal of the arms embargo would be a deterrent to war because aggressors would know their victims could purchase arms and ammunition in this country. Administration leaders, meanwhile, were reported to be canvassing the Senate membership about a cloture vote limiting debate, the only effective means of shutting off a possible filibuster. This canvass was said to have been started at the insistence of Secretary of State Hull, who was represented as unwilling to see Congress adjourn without some action toward revision of the neutrality act.

Meanwhile Senator Nye (R-N. a leader of the opposition forces, advanced the claim that canvasses showed 29 senators were in favor of putting off discussion of neutrality legislation until a later session. He did not, however, contend that all of these would oppose repeal of the arms embargo when and there is a Senate vote on this question. In contrast, some senators said they were anxious for a vote. Among these were Senator Norris consistently an administration supporter.

"There are two things that I to do," Norris said. "First, I want to keep out of war. Second, I want to do anything that legally -and I think we can do something--to help lick Japan, Hitler and Mussolini." Representing the "undecided" bloc in the Senate, which both sides admitted is large, Senator Johnson (D-Colo.) said he thought that debate on question might well decide the issue." "I have not made up my mind about repeal of the arms embargo and there are a lot of other senators in the same boat," Johnson said. "They say that debate in the Senate never makes any converts, but this debate will. It will be just as important in determining attitude of the Senate on the question as in determining the reaction of the country." MAS.
