accompany the speech and Germany did not desire to relay “merely a political speech.” Finland has no " short-wave facilities strong’ enough to reach America. Finland’s army was now understood to be posted in advanced points in the east, especially around the numerous lakes near the Russia border. The soldiers were equipped chiefly with rifles, ‘machine guns, trench mortars and light artillery but they relied on valuable natural defenses and their own excellent marksmanship to “hold back any Russian horde which might Cross, the border, Minister Erkko’s speech was made available to the press today.

Russian Demands on

Finland Moderate

- MOSCOW, Oct. 13 (U. P.).— Soviet Russia suddenly resumed negotiations with Turkey today and indicated through usually well-in-formed circles that relatively moderate proposals had been Piisented to Finland.. It was believed here that Germany was likely to invoke soon the agreement which binds the Reich and Russia to consult on ‘“necessary measures” if the Allies refuse —as they apparently have done— the Soviet-Nazi campaign to halt the war. In regard to Finland, whose representatives entered their second day of consultation with high Soviet officials, it was believed in responsible sources that Russia does not anticipate a pact similar to those which gave Moscow_a dominant position in the Baltic countries—Esthonia, Latvia and Lithuania. That viewpoint developed after it had been confirmed by reliable sources that Sweden, Denmark and Norway had handed notes to the Foreign Office expressing their concern regarding the Finnish negotiations, as did the United States. The negotiations with Turkish Foreign Minister Sukru Saracoglu were resumed suddenly 17 days after he arrived here to resume talks with Foreign Minister Viacheslav Molotov. It was believed there was hope of an early agreement with Turkey that would not conflict with the Turkish plans for a Mediterranean pact with Britain and France. The belief seemed to be general that Finland would give in to Russian demands rather than fight a suicidal war. It was reported but not confirmed that Russia asked Finland to cede two unpopulated Finnish islands off Leningrad, considered by Russia to be vital to its defense but without value to Finland, and, possibly, for concessions in the Aaland Islands.

Roosevelt Appeals

To Soviet President

WASHINGTQN, Oct. 13 (U. P). —President Roosevelt revealed today that the United States demarche to Russia asking maintenance of peaceful Finnish-Soviet relations took the form of a personal appeal to President Kalinin of the U. S. S. R.| Mr. Roosevelt said he has not re-

ceived any reply from Russia to his]:

intervention in behalf of Finland, but that his message was of the nature to produce at least an acknowledgement. He added, in commenting on the European situation, that he still has received no direct intimation from Berlin that Adolf Hitler wants’ this country to mediate the European war. Mr. Roosevelt said he expressed the hope that nothing would be done which would disturb the peaceful relations of Baltic nations or interfere with the independence of Finland. Mr. Roosevelt said he had no © comment on reports that Herr Hitler wants the United States to settle the European situation.

right. For it recently moved from Room 1313 on the 13th floor of a downtown office building to a new location. But there is one prominent Indianapolis physician who will tread very carefully until 12:01 a. m. Saturday rolls around. He is the doctor who wouldn’t think of writing 13 orders on a patient's hospital chart. Nor will he "discharge a patient from the hospital on Fri-

day. At least 1300 hostesses in the city never would dream of seating 13 guests at the same ‘table, today or any other day. But the Civic Theater, with due precaution, is opening its 25th season tonight. Actors, even amateur actors, are notoriously superstitious. So tonight's cast will have plenty of spells and incantations: to put a shiner on the evil eye. Jane Kinghan is going to take particular pains to see that none of the actors does any whistling in the dressing rooms. Mrs. Irving Fauvre is going to wear a sea pearl necklace that never yet has failed to ward off such evils as missed cues and muffed lines.

All's Well—So Far

Norman Green is feeling pretty confident ahout the Whole matter. Nobody gave the play's tag lines before ‘dress. rehearsals, and, furthermore, Mr. Green hasn't seen any bats flying about the theater in the course of rehearsals. So the Civic seems to be all set. Some 13th birthdays are being celebrated around town today. No ill effects, not even from too much

James Swift, 6, of 249 N. Randolph St., was in City Hospital with possible head injuries after being struck yesterday at Michigan and Randolph Sts.,, when, police were told, he ran into the front wheel of a ‘truck driven by Harry Cooper, 48, of 1813 W. Morris St. Five-year-old Kenneth Martin, 2726 Northwestern Ave., was cut on the head when struck by a truck at 27th St. and Northwestern Ave. William Imell, 10, of 2338 N. Illinois St., was cut on the left cheek and his right eye was bruised when he was struck by an auto while he was attempting to cross N. Illinois St. in the 2100 block.

Boy's Wrist Broken

The right wrist of William Shelton, 14, of 743 W. Michigan St., was broken when he was struck by a bicycle, he told police. The boy said he was attempting to cross the intersection of Douglas and North Sts. Two persons were injured today when a car, going west on 17th St., struck a truck at the Alabama St. intersection, skidded and crashed into a second truck, according to police. Herman Johnson, 713 W. 27th St., the car’s driver, and Mrs. Augusta Redd, 2721 Shriver Ave. a passenger, were taken to City Hospital.

And then there's the case of Retta M. Tolbert and Richard D. Green, both of whom started life in the same hospital 13 months ago today. By this time the reader should have counted both names and discovered that each contains 13 letters. But Retta has even more potential bad luck in her history. Her middle initial, for instance, is the 13th letter in the alphabet. Her father, Ronald Tolbert, has 13 letters in his name. And so, until her marriage, did her mother, whose maiden name was Marguerite Day. It seems now that Everett Clark picked the wrong day to come to Indianapolis from his Nineveh, Ind., home. The Friday the 13th jinx went to work on Mr. Clark and when the black magic cléared away, his wallet was gone. So were $150, driver’s and hunting licenses and some canceled checks and receipts. i Mr. Clark is. offering $25 reward for their return.

There appeared to be slight hope in British sources that any new or more acceptable terms would come from Fuehrer Hitler or that President Roosevelt or any other neutral power would be able to advance a basis for peace negotiations unless there is a drastic change in the present situation. It was pointed out that President Roosevelt has been unwilling to accept inspired newspaper suggestions from Berlin ‘that he seek to mediate. King Gustav of Sweden was mentioned as a possible mediator by the Swedish press but no fetion had been indicated. The Scandinavian nations, in fact, were more and more worried about the possibility of Soviet demands on Finland drawing them into the conflict.

pared to carry out its agreement to consult further with Germany as the|* result of the apparent collapse of the Nazi-Soviet peace offensive. Support for the Hitler peace terms continued strong in Moscow, but whether the Soviets eventually would go farther than economic aid to the Reich was not indicated. A diplomatic report circulated without confirmation in London that the Soviets were considering issuance of an invitation to the representatives of all Baltic and Scandinavian states to go to Moscow for discussion of a mulii-lateral trade and political agreement. Amid all of the belligerent developments on the diplomatic front, there was still no great military move that would indicate the beginning of the “war in earnest”

An amendment forbidding any Government agency, such as the Reconstruction Finance Corp. or the Ex-port-Import Bank, financing exports to belligerents. 3. An amendment limiting the amount of a belligerent country’s currency which could be purchased with the $2,000,000,000 U. S. stabilization fund. Senator Gerald P. Nye (R. N. D.), who followed Mr. Taft, told the Senate today that “you can’t build any sound prosperity upon the sands of wholesale murder” and defied arms embargo repea} advocates to accept the verdict of industrialists on the effect of war on economy. Trade in munitions was responsible for our involvement in the World War, Senator Nye contended. He suggested that the question of war’s effect on a nation’s economy be submitted at formal hearing to 50 leading industrialists and Cabinet members. Summon Edward B. Stettinius, Henry Ford, Lammot du Pont, Eugene G. Grace, Walter S. Gifford, Owen D. Young, Ernest T. Weir, William 8S. Knudsen — and other topflight industrialists, Mr. Nye urged. “I dare the Senate to find 10 among the 50 who will wish to repeat the experience of the last war boom,” Mr. Nye shouted.

Waits ‘Opportune Time’

A source close to the Democratic leadership said that the Administration was awaiting an “opportune time” to reveal its support of the proposed changes. The same source said that’ an amendment to the pending neutrality bill-te carry out the suggestions would come from the isolationist bloc, and that it probably would provide that: 1. American vessels could carry goods to any port considered safe from war risk. This would enable trade with Australia and other British dominions or possessions deemed far enough away from the mother country to be free from pessible submarine attacks.

Conferences Continue

2. The “non -dangerous” areas would be defined by specific legislation, either through the naming of ports or countries or the establishment of general “non-combative” zones. Bipartisan conferences on the shipping question continued, however. Leaders on both sides agreed that it would evoke long debate and result in a close vote. Proposed repeal of the existing embargo on arms shipments. to belligerents remained the primary jssue with most isolationists, but

more attention. “We've got about 400 ships,” said Senator William E. Borah (R. Ida.), ‘and under this proposed bill they would be forced into idleness. What would we do with them? Well probably have to sell them to Great Britain for a song, and we’ll never get, our trade back.” Senate Majority Leader Alben W. Barkley (D. Ky.), said last night that “of course, any shipping amendment will be given consideration.” Mr. Barkley ordered a Saturday session and expressed the hope that debate would end then. Isolationists, cheered by a gain of two votes and the possibility of picking ‘up another, said “the fight is just beginning.” - Most Senators believed that it

Peace Price on Hitler's Head and He's Worried

By WILLIAM PHILIP SIMMS Times Foreign Editor WASHINGTON, Oct. 13.—The growing conviction here is that Adolf Hitler has become desperately afraid that he may be deposed as a result of the war, and his Government overthrown, hence his almost panicky efforts to make peace. Officials in Berlin who keep insisting that British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain and French Premier Edouard Daladier are purposely “vague” or just quibbling when they talk of peace with Germany, are regarded as merely whistling past a graveyard,

Invitation to Revolt

Both British and French Premiers have repeatedly said fundamentally the same thing, it is pointed out, namely, that as long

power there will be no peace. Both tion of political ideology. They can’t make peace with Herr Hitler for the simple reason that he has proved beyond all doubt that his pledges are worthless, “Acts, not words,” both London and Paris agree, “must be forthcoming. . . . What stands in the way of peace,” they say categorically, “is .the German Government and the German Government alone.” ‘So said Mr. Chamberlain yesterday and so, in effect, said M. Daladier two days before. Buntly, this is taken to mean that if the German people, with

In order to put something over on the Allies, the Fuehrer took in Stalin as a partner. Now Stalin, not: Hitler, seems to be. boss. No one here believes Herr Hitler ever expected Stalin to do what he is doing.' Chancellor Hitler, it is conceded, bargained to give Stalin half of Poland for his aid. But not Lithuania, Latvia, Esthonia and Finland, plus a hegemony over the Black Sea area, the Balkans and perhaps more besides,

Stalin in Danger But Stalin has proceeded to take for himself whatever he wants. And there seems to be little that Hitler can do about it. If he tries to stop Stalin, he will lose Russia's suprt. If he does nothing, stands to lose Italy—assuming of course, that Italy is not already lost to him. And he may even lose his own country. For, despite the elections which gave Hitler more than 99 per cent of all the votes, millions of Germans are known to dislike Herr Hitler's methods intensely and would welcome his political disappearance. How About Army? There used to be talk of an army coup, followed by a military dictatorship. By and 14rge the German Army has always been an extremely patriotic organization, devoted to the long- interests of the Fatherland.

Relief Clients Complain

Complaints have been made that relief clients have been forced to patronize favored stores a long distance from their homes. Several instances have been reported of clients living next doar to or within a féw doors of one relief grocery being forced {to walk long distances to another grocery. Mr. Garrison declined to explain what evidence he will seek from the G. C. U. R., but said he would look it over and see “how it fits into this poor relief picture.” The Grand Jury deputy, who will have charge of the probe next week, alsd declined to reveal the names or number of persons submitting relief complaints to John Dugan, investigator assigned to hear all complaints. Mr. Dugan has taken an office in Room 84 in the Court House. The information he is given is to be passed on to the Grand Jury Monday and if any of the complaints indicate law violations, witnesses will be subpenaed, Prosecutor Lewis said.

to give relief clients the benefit of sale or shelf prices.

Price Variance Observed

This plddge was made when his attention was called to the fact that, through lower prices, relief clients in Washington Township were able to obtain more groceries for the same amount of money. Meanwhile, the State Gross Income Tax Division revealed it -already was investigating to learn if relief grocers have complied with the State gross income tax law, and it was reported a Federal probe may be started to determiné if the proper Fenaral income taxes have been paid.
