The G-men established how far the kidnapers could travel in the time Miller estimated he had been traveling. They checked with radio stations and found the one and the time when the song was broadcast. Miller also noted church bells were in’ the neighborhood, heard pool balls clicking and determined that the sound of assembled people led him to believe he was in a lodge hall.

Out of these developments have come a dozen plans for alleviating the European armaments burdens and for minimizing the re-armament race which began immediately after the September crisis as the democracies declared their intention of catching up witn the totalitarian governments in defensive and offensive strength. One of these plans rumored in Paris was for a “ceiling" on arms which would stabilize them at the level of the strongest of the big four powers. That is, Britain, France and Italy would build up to the German air strength and then fix their aerial forces at that peak. Germany would build up her naval strength, and so on. Elsewhere: Vienna — German and Italian foreign ministers met to hear and decide the claims of Hungary to a large part of Czechoslovakia's frontier areas, including Ruthenla. The decision, which will be a display of solidarity of the RomeBerlin axis, is expected to avoid harding all of Ruthenia over to Hungary and thus blocking the route of Nazi eastward expansion by giving Hungary and Poland a common frontier.

FARMER AIDED BY DEMOCRATS Gov. Townsend Points To Aid By Democratic Party Roekvflle, Ind., Nov. 2.— (U.R) — The Democratic party has enabled the American farmer to conserve his soil and make a profit from It, Gov. M. Clifford Townsend declared In a campaign address here today. He claimed that the Democratic party has restored to the farmer the independence and sense of security he enjoyed when agriculture dominated the nation's industrial and comercial life. “One of the major aims of the national and state governments has been to conserve and enrich the top six inches of the soil, one of the most precious heritages of the American people,” he said. “A great deal of our wealth comes from the top six inches of the soil, and yet we have allowed it to be wasted away, because the farmers were forced to produce more and more in the desperate race with falling prices to make an income.” Speaking last night at Frankfort, Townsend asserted that “the Republican campaign has deteriorated into scandal-mongering and mud-slinging because the party leaders have lost all confidence in their issues." “The opposition candidates have turned to slandering government in a manner that violates every code of decency and fair play,” he said. “They have made all kinds of wild and libelous statements they know they cannot prove and do not want to prove in the vain hope that they can discredit state aud national administrations.” He denied he is a "dictator” or anyone's “errand boy.” He declared that “I am the people’s governor. and I follow the will of all the people. No special group is deciding the policies of this administration." o OHIO GOVERNOR (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) be necessary to use troops in the striae at the P. Lorillard Tobacco Co. plant. The governor said the request tor troops had not come from Lnrlllsrd officials but fi*Mn city and county officials, “as well as many citizen groups.” The strike was called by the Pioneer Tobacco workers, a committee for industrial organization union, on Oct. 3 when collective bargaining negotiations failed An attempt to operate the plant with non-striking employes last week was blocked by pickets.

Orson Welles Here is Orson Welles, leader of the Mercury theater group which presented that too realistic na-tion-wide broadcast describing an imaginary invasion of the U. S. by an army from the planet Mars that frightened thousands of listeners all over the U. S. The drama created a near-panic in Atlantic seaboard states and brought threats of a congressional control of ‘such abuses” of the radio. New Jersey was the scene of the mythical invasion. Many listeners mistook the dramatization as an actual news broadcast, despite anno. that tire program merely was a play.

ROPER SPEAKS ! IN THIS STATE At Indianapolis Today Noon; Speaks At Fort Wayne Tonight i Indianapolis, Nov. 2 — ,(U.R) — ' America today, standing behind : the groat objective of helping I each und every group to live in a ; I happier atmosphere. Is demon-1 I stinting to the world that her de- . niocracy can meet every emerg- ! ency of peace or war, Secretary lof Commerce Daniel C. Roper said today. Speaking before a business men's luncheon, Roper asserted that the challenge to all is to cooperate in consolidating the gains already made and to safeguard against ti return to outmoded procedures. The trend toward dictatorships in other countries “brings forcibly home to us the necessity for a better understanding of the objectives of democracy and more concerted efforts to make it function in harmony with its professions,” Roper said. Democracy’s greatest ment, he said, is “action based on due consideration of the human element in society. The disturbed environment of "human beings here and elsewhere requires more than ever co oprative study and discovery of the procedures for helping the Individual to adjust himself to the problems that are corollaries of this dynamic I machine and scientific age." Roper said that human Initiative must be preserved in all efforts to assist the individual and thi't this brings up the problem j of how far can those efforts be carried without deadening indii viduai initiative or discouraging I self-reliance. “It is quite evident.” he said, “that we must devote more study 1 and activity to the technique for long range dealing with changing conditions.” The secretary reported that “toI day business is definitely on the upturn. Employment is rising! ! and low inventories are being re-' plemshed. There are features about the present situation which encourage us to believe that i 1 I gradual but permanent recovery, ‘ on a sound basis, is ahead.” He recounted achievements of ; ! the Roosevelt administration and 1 praised Sens. Frederick Van Nuys J and Shennan Minton and the In-] diana Democratic members of the! house for the part they played in I formulating the program. Roper speaks tonight in Fort Wayne.
