* Board Vice President Warns Several Grounds May ‘Be Closed.

Park Department officials today asked the co-operation of community groups in curbing what they described as “the worst wave of vandalism at playgrounds in years.” A. C. Sallee, City Parks Superintendent, said that Park and City police are keeping close watch over valuable park property. at night, when most of [the vandalism occurs. Following the malicious destruction of fountains at the RaderUdell Sts. playground earlier this week, Albert H. Gisler, Fark Bpard + vice president, warned that several grounds may have to be closed as the result of vandalism. |

Repair Money Lacking’

“We simply don’t have enough money in our budget to make the repairs,” he sajid. 15 A youth, charged with the wreck-

ing of the fountains, was fined $3

Citizens are asked to watch for vandal acts such as these and report to police immediately: Throwing glass and fishhooks in children’s wading pools. | Throwing bottles and fragments of metal into swimming pools. Overturning benches, smashing fountains and breaking windows in community houses. Mr. Gisler said that the RaderUdell, Bethel Ave., Willard Park and Finch Park playgrounds will be closed if vandalism is not checked.

Told Fuehrer to Keep}

Hands Off Nation.

(Fifth of a Series)

By WILLIAM PHILIP SIMMS Times Foreign Editor

BUDAPEST, Hungary, July 29. The scene was Adolf Hitler’s private office in Berlin. Like others before him, Admiral Nicholas Horthy, regent of Hungary, had been invited into the Fuehrer’s presence to be impressed. : Hungary, Herr Hitler significantly intimated to his venerable visitor, would find it greatly to her advantage to play along with the allpowerful Reich—the inference, of course, being clear. For fresh in Admiral Horthy’s mind, as in the minds of the whole world, was what had happened to Austria, the Sudetenland and Czechoslovakia.

" But the doughty old regent looked | §

Herr Hitler squarely in he replied: “If you try to do to Hungary what you did to the others, every shepherd in my country will rise up and- fight you, and, what's more, I will lead them.” I tell this authentic story because it typifies the spirit and mood of the Hungarian people. Hungary is not, and dares not be, hostile to Germany. But neither does she have the slightest desire to become a German tool. What she wants, if war comes, is to remain neutrai. Since Hungary was dismembered by the Trianon Treaty after the World War, she has territorial and minority grievances against, not some, but all of her neighbors. For each of them received some part of her territory and some of her own Magyar population—people of her own flesh and blood. Now she wants these problems settled amicably, but soon. : In fact, certain of her claims have already been met in part. When

the eye as

Germany cut . Czechoslovakia to pieces, Hungary received back parts of Slovakia and Ruthenia, with their pepulations. A “We should have liked it much better,” one distinguished Hungarjan told me, smiling, “if we had received this measure of belated justice from the democracies. It will seem rather ironical when history has to record the source from which it came.” The biggest slice of territory'and the largest bloc of nationals taken from Hungary at Versailles went to Rumania. All of Transylvania, that rich upland of wheat fields, was turned over to King Carol's country, with about 1,500,000 Hungarians. Obviously, Britain and France can hardly promise to restore these to Hungary, for Rumania has now joined the Anglo-French bloc. Equal- ”

As matters stand, Hungary is very much: on the spot. She has no sympathy for Naziism, but events have placed her in a position where

ly obviously, there is nothing to prevent Germany from promising Transylvania, or even all Rumania, to Hungary if— : s What would Germany’s price be? The right to cross Hungary in a dash for Rumania’s oil and wheat fields. And, if Jugoslavia doesn’t behave, Germany .could also promise to return the Hungarian land and nationals now within that kingdom. “We never will allow Germany to trample upon Hungary,” I was told here. “We will defend our frontiers as long as we have a soldier left alive.” . But notwithstanding these best of intentions, most honorable motives and unquestioned valor, what can the small nation to which Hungary was whittled at Versailles do against such tremendous odds as she might be" called upon to face? Had Ver-

almost entirely in Herr Hitler’s direction. Some Hungarians suggest that the smaller nations should agree voluntarily among themselves to liquidate the injustices of the peace treaties. Until this is done, they argue, the little countries can never really co-operate in their common interest nor cease to be anything but pawns of the great powers. : i These Hungarians have long been asking for a plebescite. They admit that pre-war Hungary’ included minorities speaking many tongues, but they point out with much logic that the minorities had been: living in Hungary for a thousand years and had been treated with every consideration. Had Hungary been inclined to harshness, she could have obliterated the foreign languages within her borders in less than a century. RT Nowhere in Europe is America more popular than in this country. On July 4, for instance, there was a Hungarian ceremony, with speeches and music, dbout the statue of Washington here in Budapest, and I am told this has been an annual event for decades, continuing even during the World War. The memory of Woodrow Wilson likewise is greatly revered: Hungarians still hope to see his. principles of self-determination put into practice in this part of Europe. ° Next: Road to Peace Leads fo Rome. :

and building new ones “to expand our: territory,” and permit a ‘“cholera census.” They started a flight of 10,000 Chinese into the British area. 2. United States consuls throughout China were understood to be collecting a list of incidents—said to total over 600—involving Americans since the Japanese invasion, reportedly for- use in the State Department’s stiffened program in the Far East. The latest incident was the U. E. Embassy’s charge today that 16 Japanese planes had bombed and burned the girls’ school of the Seuthern Baptist Stout Memorial Hospital at Wuchow, July 26. 3. Japan struck back at the United States denunciation of the 1911 commercial treaty by ballyhooing the signing of a new trade agreement

with Germany, described as greatly |

strengthening the totalitarian axis by exchange of raw materials and closer collaboration.

Great Britain Bucks Up

4. Great Britain, apparently encouraged by the United States attitude, was reported to have stiffened its position toward Japan by proposing immediate lifting of the Japanese blockade of - the British concession at Tientsin and: hinting that negotiations for settlement of differences in China would be endangered by failure to lift the blockade. At the same time, Japanese reported that Chinese guerillas again were active and that 400 raiders had blown up tracks of the railroad from Shanghai to Nanking, derailing a train and attacking passengers. Although the international pot bubbled furiously in the Orient, the period of calm in Europe was being used by Britain, Germany, Italy and France to speed up military preparations which are expected to reach an unprecedented level late in August or early in September when the Nazi Party Congress meets at Nuremberg.

French Seek More Babies

Fifty-five thousand men of the British Territorial Army started for summer maneuvers which will put a total of 135,000 men into training. Naval reservists numbering 12,000

5 { will report Monday and half of Eng-

land will be blackened-out in air raid tests on Aug. 8. The fleet sailed today for “war stations” off the Scotland coast. : In France, where Premier Edouard Daladier has cancelled plans for reducing military reserve precautions, the Cabinet approved a series of decrees intended to bolster preparedness and extended the life of Parliament until June 1, 1942, in order to strengthen the Daladier grip on the present temporary dictatorship. . ; The decrees included measures to reward French families for having

4 more babies in order to combat a

declining birth rate; to control radio and press more carefully for counter-propaganda purposes; and to strengthen the counter-espionage system which recently has charged a huge Nazi ring was operating in France. Not the least of Britain's’ preparedness measures was emphasized by a vast refugee-like exodus of Irish men, women and children across the Irish Sea this week-end as a result of the drive by police, armed with special powers, against Irish Republican Army terrorists. Thirty of many suspects seized

by thousands of police in all night

others left the country to escape the new anti-I. R. A. law. It was persistently reported that Sean Russell, I. R. A. commander just returned from the United States, had been seen in England attempting to and stem the tide of ‘exodus: In Spain, Generalissimo Francisco Franco was reported to have called a meeting of irritated military leaders in an attempt to smooth out the generals’ quarrel with the proItalian Falangist Party and to decide the form which the new government will take. Frontier advices said that a minor revolutionary movement at Bilbao had been quickly put down and the garrison “purged.” Road Work Rushed

From Germany came reports that Adolf Hitler, still credited with expecting return of Danzig to the Reich this fall, had ordered intensive work to improve roads in Bohemia and Slovakia without delay —Troads that would be used in any Nazi military thrust against either Poland or southeastward toward Hungary and Rumania. At Berlin, political quarters expressed belief that the new GermanJapanese treaty was a warning to Great Britain as well as the United States. At Tokyo, is was interpreted as a desire by the Foreign Office for something to divert public attention from the American abrogation of the trade treaty. Although the Foreign Office was anxiously trying to devise a program likely to improve relations with America, it was indicated that the Army might upset the plans with an anti-American campaign.

workers and employers provided in the bill. The deadlock exists because Senate conferees won't recede from, and House conferees won't agree to, the two-for-one old age pension amendment of Senator Tom Connally (D. Tex). The amendment provides that for the first $15 of old age assistance paid monthly to an eligible person, the Federal Government shall put up $10 and the state $5, and that thereafter contributions shall be split 50-50 as they are now on the whole pension. This, it is estimated, would cost the Federal Government $80,000,000 the first year. Senator Connally, supported by three other Senate conferees, including Charman Pat Harrison (D.

Miss.) of the Senate Finance Com- |

mittee, by one House conferee and a 43-t0-35 vote of the Senate itself, insists that his amendment gives necessary help to the poorer— chiefly Southern—states. It probably would have the effect of raising old age payments in Indiana as well.

The strateggy of the Senate conferees has been to sit tight until the House conferees either agreed to the amendment or consented to take it back to the membership for a separate vote. There is a chance that arrangements for the separate vote will be made at the next meeting of the conference committee, probably on Tuesday. Rep. Joseph W. Martin Jr. (R. Mass.), the minority leader. said he expected the separate vote some time next week.
