UNITED FRONT IN WORLD’S DRIVE TO END DEPRESSION IS GOAL OF ROOSEVELT President’s Coup in Bringing Nations to U. S. Capital for Economic Conferences Hailed Major Diplomatic Victor. BY WILLIAM PHILIP SIMMS Scrippt-Hnn ard Foreign Editor WASHINGTON, April 10. President Roosevelt's breath-taking coup of shifting the political and economic capital of the world to Washington has left the world gasping. Important decisions are expected within the next thirty days. The diplomatic colony here agrees that miracles have happened. President Roosevelt, it observes in a sort of wonderment, is duplicating internationally what he accomplished in the domestic field. lie may reverse the political and economic trend of the

world. The President’s feat in bringing to Washington British Premier MacDonald and other ranking statesmen and envoys of a dozen of the leading foreign powers is hailed as one of the biggest diplomatic victories in America’s post-war history. The White House conferences with leaders from Great Britain, France, Italy, Germany, Japan, China, Argentina. Brazil, Chile, Mexico and Canada are expected to result in the formation of a united front in a world drive against the depression. Amongst the avowed miracles is what happened to the war debts. These, it is reported, have been relegated into the background where, all along, President Roosevelt has said they belong. The importance of this, it is observed here, still is far from realized either in this country or abroad. Three months ago Europe nastily was insisting that Uncle Sam’s greed was destroying mankind; that the war debts were paralyzing world economic, recovery. Cancellation pure and simple, without cpiid pro quo, openly was demanded. Refusal, it was charged, would damn the United States, Europe and the world to perdition. ‘Let Us Stop Haggling’ The President now has succeeded in reversing the whole argument. Smilingly, and without quibbling, he quietly, but firmly, has made known his own views to Europe. “The war debts,” he has warned, in effect, “are not the only obstacle in the way of world recovery. They are just one among many. "We must revive world trade. “We must abolish the tarifT walls which we, ourselves, took the lead in erecting. "We must do something about the gold standard. “We must stabilize currency and open up exchange and credit. "We must solve these and other monetary and economic problems, and remove the business-killing fear of anew war and anew armaments race. “Amongst thf se, war debts have a proper place. But only a proper place. “So let us stop haggling, bluffing and trying to drive sharp bargains, and form, instead,* a united front to combat the common enemy, the depression.” Work on Fundamentals Even while the banking and other domestic rises were at their height, President Roosevelt now is known to have been busy in the international field. He and his representatives held no less than seven major conferences with Sir Ronald Lindsay, British ambassador to this country Many similar conferences were held with the French and other foreign diplomats. Asa result, it is said, the way largely has been paved for a successful outcome of the coming White House meetings. If these succeed, the proposed world monetary and economic conference will be able to devote itself largely to details. Fundamentals will be decided within the next thirty days here at Washington. The monetary and economic conference, it now is thought, will bo able to convene at London about six weeks after the preparatory commission meets at Geneva on April 24. That would fix the date somewhere between June 1 and June 15. A postponement of the June 15 war debt payments may become necessary. No Actual Negotiations B;i I hiltd l‘re LONDON, April 10.—Prime Minister Ramsay MacDonald will be prepared for "limited conversations’’ but not for actual negotiation when he talks with President Roosevelt, it was learned in sources close to the government today. It was not expected that MacDonald would sign any agreement while in America, although if necessary hd could communicate with his cabinet bv telephone or cable.

James Banks, Negro, accused with Poole, has been a prisoner several ! months. Poole, whose home is in Hopkinsville, Ky., said he met Banks there in October, 1932, and Banks told him he was familiar with Indianapolis and knew of several cleaning shops and groceries that could be robbed. The two arrived here two days before Ajamie was slain. In a statement to detectives, Poole tells of an automobile tour he and Banks made for the purpose of selecting j places for robbery, j According to the statement, Poole J and Banks, both carrying revolvers, went to the Ajamie store. Poole says he remained outside and that Banks entered. Banks called to Poole, who said he looked through a screen of the store | and saw Banks and Ajamie struggling. At the sound of a shot, Poole says he fled. Shortly afterwards, Banks came to the home of some of his relatives, where both had been staying and told Poole they were suspected of shooting the grocer. Poole said he left at once for Hopkinsville and on his arrival, was arrested on the charge which resulted in the prison term.

Dances to Be Slower Smooth Gliding Steps for Crowded Floors to Replace Hotcha-Cha Type, Is Edict. The jiggle and bounce babes with a “hotcha-cha" swing have been j geared down to a waltz tempo and the 1933 dance floors no longer will see the rushing, eccentric steps of the collegians. l Members of the Dancing Masters of America of Indiana and the | the Chicago Association of Dancing Masters forecast this two-legged I braking at the conclusion of a meeting of the two organizations Sunday ! in the Antlers.

j Increase in the dancing population of the nation has caused the ; slow tempo instead of a desire for j dignity, the dance masters say. "Smooth-flowing, gliding dances in slow time that don't take much room and that are adapted to j crowded floors will be taught.” said Louis Stockman of Indianapolis, teacher of ballroom dancing and chairman of the meeting. Simplification of dance steps will feature the year's trotting. The Off-to-Buffalo fox trot was demonstrated by Stockman. It is danced to any slow, medium or blues fox-trot tune. Other teachers at meeting included Miss Marian Freeman. | Chicago, musical comedy dancer; j Miss Anna Ludmila. Indianapolis, : ballet: Nicholas Tsoukalas. Chicago, j Spanish and character dances, and | Leo T. Kehl, Madison, Wis., presij dent of the Chicago association, tap j dances. A banquet and grand ball with a floor show followed the afternoon jof instruction. * Mayor Reginald H. Sullivan and | Thomas Birchler, editor of Dancing j Master magazine, were honor guests. SAFECRACKERS BALKED Xitro Blast Jams Mechanism on Strong Box at City Firm. ' Safecrackers shattered the knob on a safe at the Frank Hatfield Motor Company, ,625 North Capitol j avenue, Sunday night, but the nitro- ! glycerine blast only succeeded in | jamming the safe mechanism so it j could not be opened today.
