Mr. Roosevelt explained the foundation had been built up from “very small beginnings 10 years ago to two useful, practical factors in the fight against one of the most insidious and baffling of American health problems."

The 70 per cent of funds raised by birthday parties this year go for the second objective, the giving of “better care to crippled children within or near their own communities, he said. “I need not tell you of my deep i personal happiness tha tmy birthday is being made the occasion for | aiding this splendid work," the President said.

By Timet Special LEBANON. Jan. 31.—Although Henry Williams was found guilty in city court here on a charge of petit larceny, the prosecution bitterly assailed relief agencies and action of a township trustee in refusing aid to Williams. To obtain food, according to Williams, he stole brass pipe and wire and sold the lot to junk dealers. The prosecutor's denunciation of the social welfare organizations, however, did not prevent Williams from receiving a sentence of 30 days cn the penal farm and an sll fine.

BRITAIN, FRANCE TO CONFER ON ARMS PROBLEM Forgotten Treaty ‘May Be Revived by England During Parley. fCopyright. 1935. bv United Press) PARIS. Jan. 31.—Great Britain will ; seek to revive the “forgotten treaty” j in an effort to solve the grave Euroj pean armament problem, it was indicated today. Premier Pierre Etienne Flandin and Foreign Minister Pierre Laval left for London yesterday to nego- ! tiate with Prime Minister Ramsey , MacDonaLd and Sir John Simon,' j foreign minister, on the arms situation. Their talks will start today and continue through tomorrow, with: interludes for social engagements. French option was pessimistic as to the possibility of immediate agreement on means to bring Germany back into Europe’s councils. Germany demands equality of arms. France will not consent unless its security is guaranteed specifically with men and arms by Great Britain. Britain will not inj crease its continental commit- j i ments. In this apparent impasse, it was I indicated that Britain, if no other means were found, intended to re- ; vive the forgotten treaty, or agree- ! ment, concluded at Geneva Dec. 11,
1932. This agreement, signed by Great Britain, France and Italy, was a declaration that the guiding principle of the disarmament commission should be to grant Germany equality of rights in a system providing security for every one. In addition, Britain, France, Italy and Germany declared ’they were ready to join in a solemn reaffirmation to be made by all European nations that in no circumstances would they try to settle any dispute by force. It was said that Britain would seek to utilize this declaration as the starting point for anew deal in disarmament. The difficulty seemed to be that Germany was demanding recognition of its right to rearm equality now, while France wanted the security questions attended to first. POST CARD PARTY SET Oaklandon Legion to Sponsor Social Friday Night. A benefit bridge and euchre party will be given at 8 Friday by Service Post, No. 128, at Legion Hall, Oaklandon.

Electric Firm Turns to Stage to Boost Sales EY WALTER D. HICKMAN
BUSINESS men are getting nearer the theater each day as manufacturing concerns turn to the stage to instruct their salesmen. Many Indiana salesmen of the General Electric Cos. are at their homes today after attending the midwinter meeting of the appliance section here. Professional actors as well as especially talented men from General Electric were employed yesterday in the assembly room of the Claypool to express an effective sales talk in the terms of a revue. This revue, “The House of General Electric,” was written by Carl Robbins, formerly of the legitimate stage. Larry Higgens designed the expensive sets which were used in putting over in an entertaining fashion the lessons of salesmanship. Three such companies now are touring the country in this latest method of holding sales conventions. Several carloads of scenery and equipment were used yesterday on a specially constructed stage with lights, drops and curtains similar to thos used on the legitimate stage. The spirit of all who attended the convention was one of optimism and improved business conditions. In a clever way, the new company’s products were introduced during the revue. The evening was given over to a banquet in the Riley Room of the Claypool and concluded with ten winners in the recent radio contest for talent, conducted by General Electric over WKBF, a a a In the Theaters Loew’s Palace—Lionel Barrymore, W.
