0S. 1S IN PERIL F. D. R. WARNS: HITS ATTACKERS

‘Quarantine’ of TreatyBreaking Nations Urged By Roosevelt.

(Continued from Page ‘One)

tions in other parts of the world. Then in solemn language he warned that isolation is not protection. Mr. Roosevelt said there is a technical and moral solidarity and interdependence in the modern world “which make it impossible for any nation completely to isolate itself from economic and political upheavals in the rest of the world.” He said there could be neither stability nor peace except under international laws and morals whereas “international anarchy destroys both.”

Compares Arms Costs © It is vital to the United States, he continued, that sanctity of treaties and maintenance of infer= national morality be restored. Comparing our 11 to 12 per cent expenditure on armaments with the 30 to 50 per cent of national income spent by some nations in fear of aggression, Mr. Roosevelt said the position of the United States was

a happy one but he warned that we must look ahead.

He said the peace, freedom and security of 90 per cent of the world’s population now is jeopardized by a 10 per cent which threatens to destroy international law and order. “Surely,” the President continued, ‘the 90 per cent can and must find some way to make their will prevail.”

“Conditions Growing Worse”

“It is because the people of the United States under modern conditions must, for the sake of their own futre, give thought to the rest of the world,” he said, “that I, as the responsible executive head of the nation, have chosen this great inland city and this gala occasion to

speak to you on a subject of definite national importance.” He said world copditions of. late have been “growing progressively worse” until a “haunting fear of calamity” pervades the air. This condition began, he explained, through unjustified interference in internal affairs of other nations or invasion of alien territory. He charged that landmarks and traditions of civilization’s progress toward law, order and justice were being wiped away. Irawing on the works of a recent and unnamed author, Mr. Rooseveit said we may foresee a time when men “exultant in the technique of homicide” will swarm the world until “all will be lost or wrecked or utterly destroyed.” .

“If those days are not to come to pass—if we are to have a world in which we can breathe freely and live in amity without fear—the peaceleving. nations must make a concerted effort to uphold laws and principles on which alone peace can rest secure. “The peace-loving nations must make a concerted effort in opposition to those violations of treaties and those ignorings of humane instincts which today are creating a state of international anarchy and

escape through mere isolation or neutrality.

Involve Many Problems

“Those who cherish their freedom and recognize and respect the equal rights of their neighbors to be free and live in peace, must work together for the triumph of law and moral principles in order that peace, justice and confidence may prevail in the world. “There must be a return to a belief in the pledged word in the value of a signed treaty. There must be recognition of the fact that national morality is as vital as private morality.” : Specific questions of treaty violations and broader questions of war and peace are involved in these problems, he explained along with “the principles of humanity.” It is true that they involve definite violations of agreements, and especially of the covenant of the League of Nations, the BriandKellogg pact and the nine-power treaty, Mr. Roosevelt said, but they also involve problems of world economy, world security and world humanity. ; He urged that the moral consciousness of the world be aroused “to the necessity of respecting the rights and liberties of others and of putting an end to acts of international aggression.” “Most important of all, the will for peace on the part of peace-lov-ing nations must express itself to the end that nations that may be tempted to violate their agreements and the rights of others will desist from such cause.”

Trucker Electrocuted Watching President CHICAGO, Oct. 5 (U. P.).—Joseph Zlowotoski, 40, Chicago truck driver, was electrocuted accidentally today when he stood on top of a railroad car to watch President Roosevelt

drive down the street toward the new Outer Drive Bridge. Mr. Zlowotoski’'s head accidentally came in contact with a trolley wire used by

Consolidate Gains of Workers, Chief Executive Urges A.F.L.

Link Belt Peace Sought In Parley With Union And State Officials.

Sends Message as Bitter Conflicts Arise at Convention.

(Continued from Page One)

Local 1150, Amalgamated Association of Iron, Tin & Steel Workers of America, C. I. O. affiliate, today attended a meeting called by Basil Booher, president, in its hall two blocks from the plant. He obtained promises from volunteers for picket duty while S. W. O. C. organizers urged the workers to continue their demands. Mr. Booher cautioned the workers against any violence, but said, “we can have a picket line second to none you have ever seen and still be within the law.” Mr. Booher said earlier that 100 heat-treating department employees refused to leave the plant yesterday and that 200 more night shift employees in the punch press and screw machine departments entered the plant late yesterday and then refused to leave in sympathy.

* Figure Is Disputed

He said today he could not tell how many still were inside because “some go over the fence, but come back and we can’t tell.” Earlier, police who had been in the plant said the “stay-ins” numbered between 85 and 100. Company officials said 53 to 40 workers stayed in the plant. “Stay-ins” had radio entertainment last night and food furnished them by the union. Today wives of some strikers stood outside, talking to them through the windows or over the fences and handing them food. Mr. Viat said that since the Sept. 2 agreement was signed about eight or 10 other complaints have been filed against the company, but none of them has been investigated. He said that under the September agreement, the company issued its labor policy and it was approved by the union and the State Labor Division. :

Dairymen to Consider Request of Union

Representatives of Indianapolis dairies were to meet today to decide whether they will confer with the Milk’ and Ice Cream Drivers, Salesmen and Helpers, and Dairy Employees, Local 774, over organization matters, the State Labor Board said. When the decision is made, Herman Brunka, Department conciliator, said the Department will be informed. A meeting between the union, an A. F. of L. affiliate, and: dairymen yesterday in the State House, was frustrated when dairymen refused to allow the union representatives into the conference. At that time, Mr. Brunka said, union men said they might “employ other tactics if that’s the attitude of the dairymen.”

F. D. R. JR. IS PLEDGED

UNIVERSITY, Va., Oct. 5 (U. P.). —Franklin D. Roosevelt Jr., son of the President, has been pledged to Delta Psi Fraternity at the University of Virginia, it was announced today. Young Roosevelt, here with his bride, the former Ethel du Pont, registered this fall at Virginia's law school.

O. charter for a Pacific Coast carpenters union that had been in the A. F. of L.,, do you?” Other Federation leaders said they tried vainly to persuade Mr. Duffy to withdraw the challenge, Reminds Howard “of a Hitler” Mr. Howard said he would appear before the credentials committee to argue that there was no legal or constitutional grounds to bar him from his seat. Later, he said he wasn’t sure what he would do because he didn’t “like to walk very much.” He added that he expected to leave soon, anyway, for Atlantic City where the C. I. O. would hold a rival convention, : He said the challenge to his credentials reminded him of “action by a Mussolini or a Hitler.” His I.. T. U. delegation, however. was ready for a fight in Mr. Howard's defense. : “Such an affront to our president would be an insult to the Typographical Union,” W. R. Trotter, head of the Union Statistics Bureau at Indianapolis, said. It appeared likely that Mr. Howard would be declared ineligible. Some officials said the decision already had been made and that there were sufficient votes to defeat the I. T. U. on the floor.

C. I. 0. to Accept Challenge,

Leaders Believe

WASHINGTON, Oct. 5 (U. P.) — The Committee for Industrial Organization will accept the challenge of the American Federation of Labor and seek a definite split in the labor movement at its Atlantic City meeting Oct. 11, C. I. O. officials indicated today. While official comment was withheld on Federation President William Green's call for the C. I. O. and all its sympathies to “get out and stay out” of the A. F. of L. the feeling in C. I. O. circles was that John L. Lewis, militant C. I. O. leader would “call the hand” of the Federation. The Federation's executive coun-

cil report branded C. I. O. tactics |

as a “ripping, tearing process” and “a campaign of attempted disruption.” It accused the C. I. O. of ‘seizing” the “funds, property and records” of A. F. of L. unions. The A. F. of L. executive council, composed of Mr. Green and Craft union leaders backing him in his fight against the Lewis faction, have embarked on a battle to control the labor movement, it was believed in some quarters. Mr. Lewis summoned his labor chiefs to meet a week after the A. F. of L. convention began in Denver, ostensibly to canvas results of organization drives and tg consider policies and plans.

F.D.R. INSPIRES LEAGUE ACTION

Far Eastern Committee Agrees to Urge Direct --- ‘Help for China.

(Continued from Page One)

of recommendations by suggesting that the League states consider how they may individually aid China. Originally the drafters had stressed that the League should do

mothing to weaken China’s resist-

ance. Completes Proposals The subcommittee at 6:30 p. m. completed its proposals which will be added to its report as a fifth section. : The full advisory committee, with Leland Harrison, U. S. Minister to

Switzerland, attending in an observer's role, was to meet about 7:30 p. m. to consider the report.

The report approves in principle

a convocation of the nine powers, including the United States and Japan. The powers are pledged under the Washington treaty of February, 1922, to respect the territorial and political integrity of China.

Japan May Be Planning War Edict

TOKYO, Oct. 5 (U, P.).—A series of apparently disconnected announcements gave rise to reports today that the Government was preparing for some pronouncement of prime importance in its policy in the Chinese war. : The Domei News Agency announced that views were exchanged regarding the Government's “further policy designed to cope with the China incident.” Then it was

announced that Gen. Gun Ushirogu, chief of the Military Affairs Bureau of the War Office, had been appointed to an important .post—unspecified—in connection with -the Chinese crisis. : Informal discussions between the United States and Japan over the refusal of Japanese military authorities to release American goods and foodstuffs from warehouses in the Shanghai area are under way, it was reported.. United States Ambassador Joseph C. Grew was said to have brought up the subject in a conversation with Vice Minister of Foreign AIfairs K. Horinouchi on the general status ‘of Americans in Shanghai.

VALENCIA, Spain, Oct. 5 (U. P.). —British destroyers were believed today to have sunk without trace a pirate submarine which attacked the destroyer Basilisk off the east coast.

-Ships off the coast yesterday afternoon, after the destroyer was attacked, saw seven destroyers and two great three-motored Navy flying boats grimly moving back and forth, up and down, on plotted courses extending for many miles about the scene of the attack off Cape San Antonio. : Then a great column of smoke shot up from the surface of the sea. Observers timed the duration of the smoke column—12 minutes. As the smoke died the destroyers and the seaplanes made off. “I should think that was the end of the submarine,” said A. C. E. Malcolm, British Embassy secretary here, to the United Press today.

VON SPRECKELSEN BOY STILL CRITICAL

Two-year-old John Walter Von Spreckelsen, son of Mr. and Mrs. Walter Von Spreckelsen, 1946 Carrodon Ave. remained in a critical condition today in City Hospi-

tal. The child received severe burns when he pulled a pot of boiling cof-

fee on himself Saturday.

BOB BURNS | Says: pyouxwoon,

a well-known fact that there ain't no such thing as a perfect crime. No matter how carefully you plan your alibis and try to cover up your tracks, you're bound to leave some clue that a good detective can ferret out to prove your guilt. I had an aunt that went away on: a month's vacation. When she came back, she asked my uncle, she says, “What did you do with your time last month while I was away?” My uncle says, “Oh, 1 stayed home every night and read— I just love to read.” And she says, “Well, then—read this light bill fo that month. It says 8 cents.” : (Copyright, 1937)

PREDICTS WET WINTER SANTA CLARA UNIVERSITY, Cal.,, Oct. 5 (U. P.).—Dr. Albert J. Newlin, head of the Ricard Memorial Observatory, predicted today that the nation would have a “wet and severe winter” this year.

‘STOP JAPAN, SPEECH HINTS

Diplomatic Circles Term Address ‘Go’ Sign to League Powers.

(Continued from Page One)

States took the lead in attempting international action to compel observance of treaty obligations. The League powers, particularly Great Britain and France, failed to follow our lead and the United States was left ‘out on a limb."” “In the present situation the United States has no intention of flying the kite for the League powers. But the President's speech is ample notice to those powers that

| the United States will provide a

very powerful and influential tail to any kite for the preservation of world peace which the League pows= ers agree to fly.”

Cites Hull Letter

This official cited the last parae graph of the letter of instructions from Secretary Hull to Leland Hare rison, American Minister to Switze erland, authorizing him to attend the League Advisory Committee meeting, compatible with the Prese ident’s speech today and as indicate ing no reversal in this Government's foreign policy. These instructions were, in fact, a message to the League of Nations. They said; “The American Government, bee lieving thoroughly in the principle of collaboration among states of the world seeking to bring about peacee ful solutions of international cone flicts, will be prepared to give care= ful consideration to definite proe posals which the League may ade dress to it but will not, however, be prepared to state its position in regard to policies or plans submitted to it in terms of hypothetical ine quiry.” Throughout the present crisis Mr. Roosevelt and Secretary Hull have emphasized and insisted upon positive endeavors,” “definite proposals,” “concrete plans,” “a definite course of action,” and so on. They have asserted repeatedly this Government will not state its position in advance on hypothetical plans or proposals. This reluctance to commit this Government in advance has been emphasized during the past few days in the coolness of the State Department toward proposals by the British Government to convene signatories of the Nine-Power Treaty to deal with the SinoJapanese crisis. Officials here bee« lieve that mere discussion of the situation would have no beneficial results.
