Although the Finns appeared fol] be hoping for outside help if a test) comes, there was slight indication
that. they would get more than
sympathy from the neighboring §
Scandinavian’ states.
There were repercussions-of the|: Soviet expansion in the Baltic|: states. In Moscow, the newspaper
Pravda said that the Soviet “good
neighbor” policy had now made] possible an “iron belt” through the| Baltic, assuring Russia against ag-| |
gression by Germany or any other nation in that area. Four Soviet warships were due in the port of Tallinn and naval experts from Moscow arrived at Baltisch Poi nthe warm water town laid t by Peter the Great—to make it to a Russian naval stronghold.
Berlin Peace Hope Dims
There was some difficulty in completing arrangements for removing about 120,000 racial Germans from the Baltic countries to German Poland for resettlement but the migration was expected to get up full steam shortly. Herr Hitler also was understood in Berlin to be arranging for repatriation of around 2,000,000 Germans in Rumania, Hungary and Yugoslavia as part of the NaziSoviet plan for solution of Eastern Europe’s minority troubles and possibly as a demonstration that he has no further territorial claims in Europe. In Berlin, Nazi official circles were believed to have lost hope that Hitler’s terms would prove an acceptable basis for peace negotiations, although the German public was much slower to prepare for a long war and belief was wide that some agreement would yet be reached. President Roosevelt, however, had definitely counted the United States out as a mediator on the basis of any suggestions yet made; Italy’s hopes that peace could be restored were fading and her enmity to Bolshevism was becoming more emphati¢; and there had appeared no other neutral mediator.
‘ ‘Battle on North Sea
“In London, August Zaleski, Foreigh Minister in the new Polish Government set up in France, conferred with British officials on a statement of war aims to be released later and on formation of a Polish ‘Legion to fight with the
Allies. “Mr. Chamberlain’s speech tomorrow: is ‘expected to. avoid any detailed _war aims statement on the
oh Dhasize the solidarity not only of the Allies but of the British Dominions. Labor leaders strongly supported the Government's attitude and so far there has been nothing to indicate any important swing of public opinion toward using Herr Hitler’s terms even as a basis for negatiations on peace. ‘The fighting on the Western Front and in the North Sea continued, but on a comparatively small scale. French dispatches said ‘several new German patrol raids in the Saar sector had been repulsed with heavy Nazi losses.

NEW YORK, Oct. 11 (U. P.).—The Clyde Mallory liner Iroquois with 584 refugees from the war abroad

HOPE FOR PEACE DIMS FOR NAZIS
Chance Remains; Claim North Sea Victory.
| BERLIN, Oct. 11 (U. P.).—Nazis lost hope today that the Allied Governments would consent to negotiate on. the basis of the “peace” terms of Adolf Hitler. But the German man in the street, after nearly two weeks of high-pres-sure peace propaganda, still clung to the belief that Great Britain and France would agree that there was “nothing worth ‘fighting about.” ~ Premier Edouard Daladier’s speech last night, believed to have been approved by the British Government, seemed to leave no reason for any ho that th2 Allies had: weakened.
the campaign for peace, and published every little item which indicated that the Allies did not want to fight or that some neutral might step in, now admitted that peace was unlikely. Foreign Office sources insisted that Germany had no quarrel with Allied demands for security. Developments were said to depend primarily on British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain’s speech to the House of Commons tomorrow. A war communique announced today that German heavy and light naval units, in co-operation with the air force, had been operating since Oct. 7 in the north part of the North Sea and off the Norwegian west coast and that they had. “located and damaged British naval units.” | “The operations continue,” communique said. | It is said that German troops in Poland “approached the Germanussian. border in central Poland, running along the Bug River.”

She is the first coed at Butler University to apply for enrollment in the civilian pilot training course sponsored by the Civil Aeronautics
“I don’t know whether I am naturally adapted to becoming a pilot, but if I find that I am, then watch out.” Aviation has always fascinated her, she admitted, and then, too, a boy friend is in training at Randolph Field, Tex. She thinks there may be a great future for women pilots, especially if the country gets into a war and men are needed for front-line fight
g. “If it would become necessary and if ‘I were trained, I would gladly fight for my. country,” she declared. “But all that’s in the future, an right now I've got to find out first if I am suited to become a pilot.” She is the older of two girls in the Kapherr family. Her father, Herman W., thinks becoming an aviatrix is a fine idea while her mother isn’t so sure of it. Her sister, Jacqueline, 14, is non-com-mittal. At present, Miss Kapherr is the only girl among 37 enrolled in the course. Miss Kapherr graduated from Shortridge High School last spring and. was awarded a scholarship at

Stalin dominates “the Communist International, and is the real head of the U. S. ‘Communist Party since he dictates its policies. 2. The witness “believed” that the Soviet Embassy in Washington had been the means of communicating to the U. S. party instructions to change its line and support the NaziSoviet pact. 3. In 1933, the Soviet Government gave up.:its hopes for revolutions in other European countries and changed its foreign policy to “cooperate with other nations. 4. Moscow will not permit foreign Communist parties to disagree with Stalin’s policy, and has “destroyed the central committees of the Polish, Hungarian, German and other illegal Communist parties,” pre-
sumably for disobedience.

Austin (R. Vt) said off the floor
that it was to our best interest tof ‘laid Great Britain and France and|[that embargo merited support be- "| cause it was a means to that end.
The State Department supplied
Senate leaders with information that Great Britain and France had been following a cash policy in buying arms in this country prior to outbreak of war when the embargo
said that these countries were pay-
‘ling cash “on the barrel head.”
Senator Clark saw as an explicit implication of partisanship in the European war the establishment of “some huge-world-reforming organization of which American soldiers policing all the defeated nations would be an. integral part.” “Our future is ur than Europe’s - past—far grander than Europe’s future,” Senator Clark aid. “There is a great continent here for us to help make great and free and prosperous,
Proposes Watchful Committee
“The partisanship that will surely lead us into a European war will be a blind alley, an’ abyss, a dead end for which it may take us threescore years to return to the opportunities afforded by our own nation and the able nations of this hemisphere. «I adhere to the opinion that the greatest service that the United States can possibly render democracy in the world is to perserve democracy in the United States.” Senator Clark criticized those who, he said, felt it “really clever” to find this apparently innocuous way of ‘embargo repeal to take sides without telling the people. He proposed that Congress ‘establish before adjournment of the spe--cial session a joint committee of representative leaders of the various schools of thought on foreign policy in the Senate and House to be joined by Administration representatives for the State, Commerce, Justice: and Treasury Departments. He suggested that such a group sit regularly . regardless of whether congress is in session and that it discuss war emergency matters as they arise. Senator Clark, a member of the Senate Munitions Investigating Committee of - a few years ago, scored the economic and moral effects of arms trade with belligerents.
Donahey Favors Embargo
“That course leads us surely to war as. if we were today to declare war and range ourselves upon the side of one set of belligerents on Europe’s far-flung battle line, which in the long run probably would be a cheaper and more honorable course than pursuing our mad search for war profits until the inflation of munitions production had brought about a financial and economic situation which dragged us in.” The announcements by. Senators Donahey and Gurney made: unofficial polls stand 59 for the Administration bill; 25 against, and 12 doubtful. “The demand for lifting the embargo does not in Ohio come from the smallest unit of government— the family, where father, mother and the children gather at the hearthstone and plan for the peace and safety of all,” Senator Donahey said in opposing the bill, “America opened its arteries in the World War to make the world safe for democracy. It was a royal feast for vengeful peace dictators, international gamblers and profiteers. If we open our arteries again we might bleed to death. “Our pot of gold should be used ‘over here’ to take care of those who ‘went over there.” If cash-and-carry is adopted in 1939, and the war game runs true to form in Europe, we may have cash-and-credit in 1940, and cash-and-boys in 1941.”
‘Denies White House Influence
The White House reiterated that it is keeping hands off the neutrality debate. This attitude was made known when Stephen T. Early, Presidential secretary, was asked about reports the debate may continue until Thanksgiving. “The White House knows nothing at all about extension of debate and that is a matter for the Senate leadership to handle,” Mr. Early said. “No one will be able to say that the White House wanted debate cut off, continued or influenced in any way whatsoever.” The statement that the Allies paid cash for arms prior to the war was made by Joseph C. Green, secretary of the National Munitions Control Board, at Senator Pittman’s request.

_|sons were being evacuated from Hel-
singfors alone. The Government ordered the stock exchange to be closed until further notice in view of the national emergency. -‘Esthonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Finland’s little neighbors on the other side of the Finnish Gulf, had sent their foreign ministers to Moscow and bowed to the demands of the Soviet Government. Finland seemed not prepared to do so. She had refused to send her foreign minister and has sent instead Juhu Paasikivi, Minister to Sweden and a skillful negotiator. He had no authority to accept Russian “proposals.” Leaders insisted Finland would not knuckle down as others had. “They should have fought,” a spokesman said. “We have fought the Russians for hundreds of years Sometimes we have lost. Sometimes we have won. But always—we have fought.” Holding to every shred of hope that aid might come to them, Finnish people counted on the friendship of the United States, recalling its praise for Finland as ‘the only nation among many that had paid its war debt instalments promptly and in full. An army of 255,000 men had been disposed at strategic points. A further force of 120,000 civil guard volunteers awaited a mobilization ‘call for duty. These Finnish minute men keep their guns and steel helmets in their homes and are able to mobilize in from two to three hours. Swedish Interests Called Vital
To defend its coasts, Finland had a small but efficient navy. There were two coast defense ships, really light cruisers, of 4000 tons with four 10-inch guns and 14 anti-aircraft guns; five modern submarines; 25 mine sweepers and mine layers; seven motor torpedo boats of which four were good for 40 knots; 16 25knot pairol boats, and four small ‘gunboats. Foreign diplomati¢ quarters saw little hope’ either of successful resistance to Russian demands or of foreign aid for Finland. Sweden, Finlands’ neighbor on the west, though equally interested in the Aaland Islands which lie in the mouth of the Bothnian Gulf between them, showed no sign of interest in halting the Russian Baltic thrust. Finlanders, however, argued: "1. An attack on Finland would be an attack on the Scandinvian' nations who wish only to be left alone —Finland, Sweden, Norway and
in the “Oslo” group, the Netherlands, Belgium and Luxembourg. 2. Sweden has vital interests in this situation, because of the nearness of the Aaland Islands to its coast. 3. The friendship of the United States, at least, might be counted on because of Finland’s faithful payment of its war debt obligations.

LONDON, Oct. 11 (U. P.).—Great Britain received the first official indication that her troops are in the fighting line in -France today when
announced that 158,000 men had been transported across the English Channel in the first six weeks of the

the British Cabinet, he added, in connection with activities of British troops in France. “At. this moment they are busily engaged in fortifying their positions in the line,” Mr. Hore-Belisha told the House of Commons. “It is not only to France that British. soldiers have been transported.

event of war or the imminence of war. Resolutions demanding dismissal of Communists from administrative ; government and denial of membership for them in federations of labor, also were adopted. The convention approved|’ extension of labor’s boycott on German goods to Russian products and reiterated its boycott on Japanese goods. The committe also warned that unless Congress acts upon A.

Meanwhile, Russia is erecting an “iron belt” of defense throughout the Baltic which assures the security of its frontier and further consolidates its defense, Pravda, official organ of the ‘ruling Communist Party, asserted today in an editorial on Russia’s: treaties with Esthonia, Latvia and Lithuania. “The" Soviet policy of peace and good-neighborly relations and friendship with nations scores one ‘success after another,” said Pravda. The article was written on the occasion of a “mutual aid” treaty with Lithuania, Germany's next door neighber, which was expected to put Russia air force bases within a few miles of East Prussia—a treaty which clinched Russia's new hold on the whole Inner Baltic. ‘Josef Stalin and Premier-Foreign Commissar Viacheslav Molotov, at a midnight conference, concluded an agreement with Juozas Urbsys, Lithuanian Foreign Minister, for a 15year “mutual aid” pact. Russia obtains air force bases— Lithuania has no desirable harbors since Germany. seized Memel—at points to be agreed on and in return Lithuania gets back the Vilna area, including the city of Vilna which Lithuanians regard as their real capital.
