FIGHT LOOMING ON APPOINTEES Three Os Roosevelt Nominees Facing Opposition Washington, Jan. 31 — (U.R) — Congressional rebellion against the new deal was headed today ! toward significant challenge and probably rejection of three of President Roosevelt's major appointments. Former Rep. Thomas R. Amlie, Wisconsin Progressive, now tops the conservative blacklist. His , nomination to the interstate commerce commission has aroused stormy protest. Republican and conservative Democratic leaders believe they have broken the White House hold on capitol hill. They so assay last week's 47-to-46 victory in rei during Mr. Roosevelt’s unemployI ment relief appropriation and pre- | diet that the senate and probably j the house will present a generally 1 aggressive opposition this winter lon clear cut new deal issues. They believe at least three of Mr. Roosevelt's selections for high ! office will be rejected. In addition to Amlie, those nominations are: Donald Wakefield Smith, servI ing now a recess appointment to a second term as member of the national labor relations board. Smiths name has not been sent to the senate and may be withheld to avoid rejection. Floyd If. Roberts to be federal judge of the western Virginia district. He will appear before a senate judiciary subcommittee to- ; morrow. It is not certain that any of the nominations will reach a vote, the alternative being administration surrender by agreeing to shelve them. Amlie has been requested to ap- ! pear or be represented by counsel before a senate interstate comi merce subcommittee for hearing Feb. 6. He was a La Follette ' progressive member of the house ' i but was defeated in Wisconsin's : primary last year.

DRYS TO SEEK LOCAL OPTION Methodist Conference Asks Local Option Provision Indianapolis, Jan. 31. — (U.R) — Members of the state legislature were asked by the Indiana Methodist Episcopal conference today to include a provision for local option in revision of the state liquor laws. Roth laymen and ministerial delegates met in a conference here yesterday in which the decision was made to appeal to the general assembly for the local option law. The conference claimed to represent 123,000 persons, "about 70,000 of whom are voters in Indiana.” "We urge the passage of a local option law that will give the citizens of communities, townships and counties the right to determine this matter for themselves,” the conference said in a formal statement regarding the liquor problem. "We desire to call your attention to the fact that all states boardering on Indiana, namely Kentucky, Illinois, Michigan and Ohio, have some practical form of local option. We believe the citizens of Indiana are sufficiently intelligent and interested to likewise determine these matters for themselves and respectfully urge your support of such legislation.” o CHAMBERLAIN TELLS (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) sired and sought by other countries." Speech In Doubt Berlin, Jan. 31- (U.R) -Discrepancy between a semi-official English translation of Adolf Hitler’s Reichstag speech and the official German language text, giving his own words, left diplomatic quarters in doubt today as to the extent to which Hitler had committed himself to support Benito Mussolini's "aspirations.” Hours of puzzling over Hitler’s statement that in a war of ideologies — namely, between the dictatorships and the democracies —Germany would back Italy, caused diplomats to compare the translation with the text. The translation said that Germany would be on Italy's side “in

a war of rival ideologies waged against the Italy of today." But the official text said only that “in a war against the Italy of today” Germany would support Italy, omitting the * important qualification of an ideological war. A propaganda ministry spokesman said that the discrepancy was due to hurried translation. But there was speculation whether the phrase about a war of ideologies' was purposely inserted as an indication that if Great Britain aided France in a French-Italian conflict. Germany would hasten to Italy's aid. at the same time providing Germany with a means of avoiding any intervention if France and Italy alone were involved. Officials refused to interpret Hitler's words. But there was a general belief in well informed circles that Hitler strongly desires to avoid being involved in a conflict between France and Italy, and would intervene only if Italy were the victim of aggression or if she were confronted

1000 Ways to Say “I LOVE YOU” Sending a Valentine is an old custom which began simply ... one just sent a little message of love or esteem.

Even in Rome, it was understood that in some diplomatic I i quarters there was a belief that | Hitler would try to exercise ah moderating influence on Musso- j Uni so that he would not push : any claims to the point of war. Many Germans remarked that despite the cordiality of Hitler's references to Mussolini and to j Fascism, he had not gone as far I as many people expected him to go in asserting the solidarity of. the Berlin-Rome diplomatic axis.
