Bulllie, president of the United I Pless uHsoelation, told the alumni' of Columbia College at their and nual fall luncheon ut the Bunkers' Club today Baillie warned that any such: control would "inevitably limit and restrict our world vision. We will see what Is going on through distorted lenses. We will stand on the threshold of a new dark age.” Reviewing the recent European ' crisis as he watched It develop on a journey through Europe In I July and August, Haillie said de-! velopments since then indicate ! tfiat "the outlook in Europe is for armed peace . , . until some nation or alliance challenges German expansion." That situation, he said, empha-! sizes the importance to Amerl-! cans of free, accurate press asso- j elation and newspaper reporting., “In times like these, accurate I information, accurate news, is of l vital importance to every American because it is upon this news that American public opinion is founded," he said. “The essen-, tial responsibility which develops upon every American Press asso- 1 elation and every newspaper and every radio station which broadcasts news is to bring to the pub- 1 lie a pure, unbiased and non-par-tisan picture of day to day de-1 velopments throughout the world.l "You near the press criticized! occasionally. You heard people I make light of the fact that an un- ! lestricted press is the safeguard! of our liberty. Did any of you ever' try to keep yourself acquainted■ with the news of the day in a, country which had a controlled ’ press? Try it sometime. It is like living at the bottom of a well." Haillie said that "as the operator of •! non-partisan news agency I cannot permit myself to express any opinions because our job is to bring you the news as accurately as is humanly possible and let you form your own opin- 1 ions. But I can tell you some of | the things which I have seen and' heard." Nazi Germany, he said, is “pro-i cei.diug on the theory that no | issues will arise which the democracies will not be willing to compromise in older to avoid war." o BERNE SCHOOL (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) P.

I—(UP) —Finishing touches will be put on the first of Fort Wayne’s new low-| cost housing project homes today I and the grounds and interior will; be made ready for public inspection. > Erection of the home was begun! and completed, yesterday after it I had been fabricated by WPA employes in a factory built tor the purpose. The pre-fabricated home, which will rent for only 12.50 per week is composed of a combination living room dining room and kitchen, with two bed rooms and bath. The walls and the roof are built in the factory, taken to the selected home I site, and bolted into place over a concrete base. The Fort Wayne housing authority, who built the home, expects to have fifty completed within the next thirty days. Land selected for home sites is leased from owners for one dollar, after which it becomes tax free, if at anytime the owner decides he would like the title and land returned, the authority will move the house to another location. The authority indicated today that it will seek the aid of the associated charities in determining who the tenants shall be.

CLERKS ABANDON 55-OAI STRIKE San Francisco Retail Clerks Vote To Abandon Strike San Francisco, Nov. 1. — |(U.R> — American Federation of Labor retail clerks efirly today abandoned their 55-day strike against 35 leading department stores and returned to work. The decision came on a vote, 1,068 to 1,014, to sign an agreement with the San Francisco retailers’ council. Larry Vail, union secretary, said the agreement did not provide for the union shop but provided for “continuation or improvement of all contract provisions in last year’s agreement.” Terms of the settlement provided for all strikers to register for work with the stores and return to their former posts "as rapidly as possible.” They also embodied a seniority clause, an adjustment board to discuss differences and allowed an arbiter to make final decisions. Other provisions, Vail said, in- ' eluded a $2 raise in basic wages j to S2O weekly, increased vacation with pay. and a clause designating the union as collective bargaining agent for all employes covered un- ' der the contract. Persons employed after Sept. 7 as extra help or to replace strikers must be dismissed. "We are now prepared to go back to work and will make every effort to cooperate with the employers to see that the agreement ! is enforced equitably and fairly,” ‘ Vail said. o COURT UPBRAIDS I (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) I era Floyd county on a warrant isj sued by Judge Hill charging "rape , of a child under 14.” County attorney Forrest D.

BUICK PLANS HUGE PROGRAM Largest Manufacturing Program In Company’s History Flint, Mich.,' Nov. I—(U.RF The Buick division of General Motors j corporation announced today the! largest manufacturing program in' the company's history. Harlow H. Curtice, president, and general manager, said Buick plante during the next two months will operate at capacity production with peak employment. The manufacturing program, he said, calls for output of an unprecedented volume of cars in November and December. Curtice announced the purchase during October of 36,000 tons of steel, the largest single month's commitment "in many years," I which will supplement earlier purchases of approximately 90,000 tons obtained for 1939 models. The company expects to manu-! facture 56.000 automobiles in November and December, Curtice said, to bring its total output of 1939 cars to more than 93,000 by! the end of the year, with 87,000 j of these for domestic shipment! alone. Curtice said "unusually heavy demand” for the new cars caused ed up until the whole minorities > question is settled,” he said. ‘ Eventually, he added, the terms and names of the guarantors will be submitted to the house. The prime minister answered many questions on foreign policy' in regard to Czechoslovakia, the far east and the desire of Eire for ! a North Ireland plebiscite on which it would come under the | Dublin regime. In regard to the far east. Cham-! berlain said that the Japanese i occupation of Canton and Hankow 1 had “naturally not been without effect on British interests in central and southern China.” But, he said, no immediate measures are in progress regarding concerted or collective actions by powers interested in the far east against the Japanese operations. Nor, he added, is there immediate prospect for success of medi-1 ation. “There is no immediate pros-, pect of cessation of the war,” he ! said.
