BORAH. AT 69, WARNS U. S. TO AVOID PITFALLS Idaho Statesman Foresees Prohibition Return If Abuses Continue. Tl Time* prevent* herewith n un■laal and erln*i*e interview with Senator nilliaa E. Borah on the orrasion of hi* doth birthday. (Copyright. 1934. dt United Pre*t WASHINGTON. June 29—Senator William E. Borah, crusader lor 'he common man, entered his seventieth year of life today with a kindly warning to his fellow Amerii ans that they must watch their country's development closely to , avoid pitfalls which he believes lie - in itg path. In one of his infrequent interi views, on the occasion of his sixtyi vinth birthday. Mr. Borah, in the ) humble spirit of service which has r haractenzed his long and eventful , i areer, discussed with the United Press past events and trends toward the future. Cooling himself with an old-fash-ioned palm-leaf fan, senator Borah ; said: “Another quarter of a century like the last in which more and more the better element remain out of politics will leave us the victims of political racketeers. “If the United States stands firm|ly for payment of European war wiebts, they will be paid. Revision of Wealth "Moral forces which at one time seemed to sway Europe have dissolved. leaving special alliances and general armaments the basis of European policies. ‘Our institutions, our whole scheme of civilization, depend upon a more equitable distribution oi wealth through laws and policies wh*ch will compel a better sharing of those who make the wealth of the country with those who possess “If the present trend with reference to the liquor traffic continues Jong, the revolt may go so far as to restore prohibition. 'Certainly some things which are appearing in the movies should be eliminated.” Puts Off Europe Trip Mr. Borah is a little stooiied with years. His eyes are clear, however, and his voice is firm. His face is t lined but serene. His hair is unruly he is unmindful of the clothes he wears. Despite his interest in world affairs, Mr. Borah has never been to Europe. He had hoped to go this summer. But— There are too many absorbing questions troubling us in this country right now.” It has been said of Mr. Borah from time to time that he starts crusades only to lose interest and abandon them. The record does not bear this out. The recognition of Russia was a Borah triumph. For years he was the only man in public life making the fight.

Greatest League Foe His greatest legislative battle was over the League of Nations. One of * the leading advocates said that every time they seemed to be win- ■ . ning. Mr. Borah's renewed attacks ■ swung public opinion away. Mr. Borah reaches his decisions ' only after careful study. Once committed to a position, he has never , abandoned it. Almost even - leading senator changed his position on the tariff question in the recent debates Bi t not Mr. Borah. R?gartiing war debts, he said: t “Much depends upon the attitudp of our government. If we stand firmly for payment, payments, in imy judgment, will be made. These great countries are not going to move down the years with repudiation written across their records. When it becomes clear that there is ' to be no cancellation, in my opinion, there will be payments." Began Career in Boise It has seemed strange to many the far-away, inland state of f Idaho should produce a statesman like Mr. Borah with his world vision. After working on ’*ts folks' farm in southern Illinois. Mr. Borah went to Kansas State university and was admitted to practice law in 189a £■ arting this career, he decided to go to Seattle. Traveling west by day ccach. his funds began to dwindle. A friend was stopping off at Boise. Mr. Borah counted his money. He found he had $37.50. He got off the tram at Bouse, began his career there and came to the national capital in 1907. CROOK GYPS GROCER V IN ANCIENT -RACKET' “Short Change Artist" Gets S5 in Shady Deal. The old short-change racket is here again. Orville Gwynn. 311 South Emerson avenue, manager of the Standard grocery at 2346 North Illinois street, told police about it yesterday. A 40-year-old man visited the store, made r small purchase and a lot of fuss about a SlO bill, which changed hands several times while the stranger "looked for the right * change." Then, the stranger left with his little package. Mr. Gwynn . had lost $5 in the transaction. LOSCHE LOSES FIGHT TO COLLECT $2,500 Supreme Court Decides Against * Former County Clerk. Albert H. Losche. former Marion * county clerk, yesterday lost his long court battle to collect $2,500 for his services as a member of the countyboard of canvassers in the 1924 election. * The state supreme court affirmed action of the circuit court in refus- * ;ng to mandate the county council *to appropriate the funds, holding that the 1921 laws fixed the county ) clerk’s salary, and that he was not entitled to additional money for any •other services to the county.

NEW DEAL FOES ARE TARGET OF ROOSEVELT FIRE ‘Are You Better Off Than Before?’ President Asks in Talk. (Continued From Page One) were appointment of the stock market and communications commissions and signature or veto of bills remaining on his desk. Last night’s address was the most comprehensive and studied reply he has yet made to political enemies and contained a blunt denial of charges that the country was headed either for Fascism, Communism or regimentation. In effect, Mr. Roosevelt compared the critics of the new deal to the faint-hearted Caspar Milquetoast of cartoon fame, refusing to take their barbs with great seriousness. “All that we do seeks to fulfill the historic traditions of the American people,” he said. “Other nations may sacrifice democracy for the transitory stimulation of old and discredited autocracies. We are restoring confidence and well-being under the rule of the people themselves.” People Still Rule “We remain,” he added, “as John Marshall said a century ago, ‘emphatically and truly a government of the people’. Our government in form and substance—emanates from them, its powers are granted by them, and are to be exercised directly on them, and for their benefits.” Sitting in shirt sleeves in the sweltering Blue room of the White House, Mr. Roosevelt spoke for nearly a half-hour, giving an accounting of his stewardship. The greater part of the speech was devoted to resume of accomplishments, particularly those of the seventy-third congress. He emphasized the necessity for security as a subject w r orthy of consideration of the next legislative body and also the use of land and water resources as a means of meeting more fully the daily needs of the citizenry. “And finally,” he added, “the third principle is to use the agencies of government to assist in the establishment of means to prov'de sound and adequate protection against the vicissitudes of modern life—in other words, social insurDenies Communist Trend “A few timid people,” he explained, “who fear progress, will try to give you new and strange names for w’hat we are doing. Sometimes they will call it ‘Fascism,’ sometimes ‘Communism,’ sometimes ‘Regimentation,’ some times ‘Socialism.’ But, in so doing, they are trying to make very complex and theoretical something that is really very simple and very practical. “I believe in practical explanations and in practical policies. I believe that what we are doing today is a necessary fulfillment of what Americans have always been doing —a fulfillment of old and tested American ideals.” The President struck an optimistic note when he asserted that “the program of the past year is definitely in operation and that operation month by month is being made to fit into the web of old and new conditions.” “This process of evolution,” he remarked, “is well illustrated by the constant changes in detailed organization and method going on in the National Recovery Administration.” Look at Your Rank Book “In this same process of evolution we are keeping before us the objectives of protecting on the one hand industry against the chiselers within its own ranks, and on the other hand, the consumer through the maintenance of reasonable competition for the prevention of the unfair sky-rocketing of retail prices.” Mr. Roosevelt asked his audience to sit in as the jury and judge the achievement*. **** “The simplest ways for each of

Are your working conditions better? Is your faith in your own individual future more firmly grounded? “Also,” the President asked, “let me put to you another simple question: “Turn to the bill of rights of the Constitution, which I have solemnly sworn to maintain and under which your freedom rests secure. Read each provision of that bill of rights and ask yourself whether you personally have suffered the impairment of a single jot of these great assurances. I have no question in my mind as to what your answer will be. The record is written in the experience of your personal lives.”

HITLER FIGHTS TO KEEP RULE OVERJERMANY Chancellor Facing Threat of Civil War; Rival Factions Bitter. (Continued From Page One) Communists, the Socialists, the moderate Catholic and .Evangelical population. Von Papen's speech aroused hope among these that Nazism must be tempered or must go. Hope became belief and belief rumor. Because Von Papen was known to be close to President Paul Von Himienburg and Hindenburg is the real army chief, it was taken for granted the army would support him. But the army's atitude is uncertain. Higher officers always have been cool to i Naziism. The alternative to an outbreak seemed to be a period in which Hitler could restrain both right and left wings, pending a considerable moderation of his own party pro- ! gram, the reduction of the Storm Troop “army” and the incorporation in the federal and provincial governments of more cool, level hea-ded, experienced non-Nazis. If such an achievement proved impossible, the sentiment here was that one man’s guess was as good as another as to Germany’s immediate future. Hull Condemns Nazis B;l United rrrss WASHINGTON, June 29.—Cordel Hull, secretary of state, today , put the blame for Germany’s precarious finances directly up to the policies of the Nabi regime in a sharply worded note. The note, with a frankness unusual in diplomatic exchanges, referred to extensive recent “German foreign purchases of material susceptible of military use” as one of the reasons for the present financial distress. The communication was in reply and refutation to a German explanation of the moratorium on interest and principal payments of German bonds held by American investors. Mr. Hull took the German note apart, excuse by excuse, and found it ‘‘distinctly inadequate.” Mr. Hull discussed the policies of Chancellor Adolf Hitler which he blamed for the present state of affairs. “The asserted anxiety of the German government to make every effort to meet its obligations can not be proven by a mere display of its depleted balances, but must be evident from an examination of the whole trend and operation of German policy,” Mr. Hull said. “The narrow and exclusive connection which the German government seeks to establish between the payment of its external obligations to American investors and the correct state of the direct bilateral commodity trade balance between the two countries seems to this government a distinctly inadequate approach to the problem.” He said Germany was “no doubt aware that its policies have created opposition in many parts of the world, which has expressed itself in various trade ' conflicts and the probable reduction of Germany’s capacity to transfer.”
