ALLIES, TURKS

SIGN ALLIANCE]

15-Year Treaty * Provides For..Aid- if: Rumania + I's Attacked.

LONDON, Oct. 19 (U. P.).—Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain’ announced in the House of. Commons tonight the signature in Ankara of a 15-year mutual aid treaty by Britain, France and Turkey. Under the treaty, the Turks agree to assist the Allied powers if they go to war in defense of Rumania or

. Greece. Mr. Chamberlain also threw light on the breakdo of Soviet-Turkish negotiations by saying that the talks had been “suspended” because Soviet ‘demands on Turkey conflicted with the three-power treaty.

Generals Sign Treaty

Mr. Chamberlain said it had been hoped -to conclude a: parallel treaty between the U. S. S. R. and Turkey. French Gen. Maxime Weygand

and British Lieut. Gen. Archibald P. Wavell, commanders-in-chief of the two ‘nations’ Near Eastern forces, were'in Ankara today to sign the treaty. They arrived as Baron Franz von Papen, the German Ambassador, left for Berlin to report on the breakdown of negotiations at Moscow, which Germany had hoped to see concluded successully. Provisions Revealed The treaty provides: 1. The British and French Governments will undertake to assist Turkey in the event of active aggression by any European power and to assist Turkey if any action by a European power leads to war in a Mediterranean area in- which Turkey is involved. : Rumania Protected

9. Turkey agrees to support Britain and France in event of any act of aggression by a European power in the Mediterranean and to assist Britain and the French if the United Kingdom or France are engaged in hostilities as a result of guarantees to Rumania and Greece. 3. The three Governments agree to consult regarding common action in event of any conditions arising ‘ander the previous articles. A protocol provides that Turkey will not be compelled to take action if doing so would involve it in war with the Soviet Union, but reserves to Turkey the right to join the Allies in such.a. war if Turkey wishes,

. THE ALL-TIME high temperature record for this late in the year was threatened today as the mercury, climbing by leaps and bounds, forced topcoats. into the discard and started an epidemic of brow-mopping. Early this afternoon, the U. S. Weather Bureau thermometer registered within a few degrees of the fall record, 83, which was set in 1894. The record for this date, 81, was set in 1910. J. H. Armington, U. S. Meteorologist, predicted that the unseasonably warm weather would. continue tomorrow. The reason for the heat, he said, is a storm center, or low pressure area, over the Great Lakes, which is drawing hot air across Indiana from a high pressure ‘area in the southwestern states. A steady increase in the wind was noted, he said, reaching a velocity of 20 miles an hour by early afternoon.

LONDON, Qct. 19 (U. P.).—The

STUDY U.S. BAN ON ARMED SHIPS

Subs Barred From 3-Mile Limit; Latin America May Join ‘in Move.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 19 (U. P.) — Secretary of State Cordell Hull said today the U. 8S. Government is studying the question of banning armed merchant vessels from its

ports: and territorial- waters after having proclaimed such a barrier last night against - belligerent submarines. Informed sources expected that a number of Latin American republics would follow the lead taken by President Roosevelt in proclaiming his ban against submarines but Mr. Hull said he had no advices from Belghbering republics -on that subject.

F..D. R. Makes Distinction

President Roosevelt's proclamation conformed specifically to a provision. of the declaration of the 21 American republics at Panama City. That provision stated that Western Hemisphere nations “may exclude belligerent submarines from the waters adjacent to their territories or admit them under the condition that they conform to the regulations which each country may prescribe.” The President’s prociamation set the submarine in a class by itself, distinctive from armed merchant vessels and warships which may still enter United States ports and remain 24 hours.

Exempt ‘Act of God’

But submarines may not enter, except under necessity of “force ma jeure”’—the equivalent of compulsion by an act of God or inevitable accident.

cently said that - the territorial waters extended as far as the United States interests required, international law provides that the territorial waters end three miles off-shore, and it was indicated that the latter would apply in the case of submarines. Entering under necessity of “force majeure,” submarines will be required to run on the surface, showing their conning towers and superstructures, and to fly <their own flags. They must leave ports and territorial waters in the same mar-

ner.

FRENCH DRIVEN OUT OF REICH,

NAZIS REPORT)

Troops Stopped at Border, But Peace Efforts Find No Sponsor.

By JOE ALEX MORRIS United Press Foreign News Editor

Nazis claimed to have driven allied troops from German soil in

brief, bitter fighting today but em-|

phasized that [Adolf Hitler was avoiding an invasion of France. The Nazi advance, a High Command communique in Berlin announced, was in the sector just east of the Saar River, where the French had been edging. forward for weeks until their troops and guns dominated the rich industrial and mining area of Saarbruecken. Now, the Germans said, the French have been driven out, Germany up to Oct. 7 suffered only 666 casualties, including 196 killed, in Western Front fighting since the war started and, it was hinted, Herr Hitler isn’t interested in real war with France. \

Expect Word from Stalin

Without saying so, the German High Command implied that the Hitler strategy was still to win recognition with as little fighting as possible of his conquest. of Poland; to end the war if possible and, if that proves vain, to continue trying to split the Allied powers. Most of his bitterness and. most of the Nazi aerial and submarine war so far" has been aimed at Great Britain. Nazis reported that Herr Hitler was expecting an early answer from Josef Stalin in connection with Soviet-German consultation arising from collapse of efforts to negotiate a peace. At the same time, however, Fuehrer Hitler's two greatest hopes for European mediation failed him. Hc has apparently been hoping that either the United States, Italy or the Scandinavian countries would suggest to the world that further fighting is useless and urge peace on Hitler’s terms. President Roosevelt has been resolutely unwilling

to make any such suggestion.

Today reliable Fascist sources at Rome expressed belief that peace was impossible for four or five months until after some sort of a military test. had been made. These sources indicated Italy would make no peace moves before mid-winter,

Finns Hail ‘Solidarity’

In Stockholm, after a two-day conference, the Kings of Norway, Sweden and Denmark and the President of Finland issued a communique expressing hope that peace would be achieved and expressing the willingness of neutral nations to serve in the cause of conciliation, bu: decided against attempting at this time to mediate the war. In .a broadcast from the Royal Palace at Stockholm, President Kyosti Kallio of Finland declared his Government's determination to

defend its independence and added|

significantly that Finland had received “constant proofs of the solidarity of the other Nordic nations with Finland.” How far the Nordic nations would go in aiding Finland if she should be attacked by Russia was not revealed. While the Nazis. and the Allies continued their puzzling warfare on the Western Front, the Allies won (Continued on Page Five)

TREASURY RELEASES BUSINESS ADVISERS

WASHINGTON, Oct. 19 (U. P.).— Secretary of Treasury Henry Morgenthau Jr. said today that the emergencies resulting from the European war had subsided so far as the. Treasury was concerned. Because of this, Mr. Morgenthau said, that he had released three businessmen advisers to enable them to return to their own enterprises. They are W. R. Burgess, vice chairman of the National City Bank of New York; Tom K. Smith, president of the Boatmen’s National Bank of St. Louis, and Earle Baile, chairman of Tri-Continental Corp. Mr. Morgenthau said that the refunding of $206,000,000 Commodity

AVIATION STOCKS SOAR STILL HIGHER

True as Daughter Bears 8-Pound Son.

HOLLYWOOD, Oct. 19- (U, PJ). —There’s a boy, at last, in the Cantor family. And Grandpa Eddie Cantor was so excited and incredulous he telephoned the hospital twice, all the way from Boston, to be sure someone wasn’t kidding him. The boy, 8 pounds 9 ounces, was born last night to Mrs. Natalie Metzger, 22-year-old daughter of the comedian, who has five daughters, no boys. “ Cantor’s desire for a son is a Hollywood legend. ; When Bing Crosby, who yearns for. a daughter, was presented with his fourth son, Cantor sent him a telegram? “Drop. around to the house, and let’s get together on this.”

CITY SCORED BY BUTLER OFFICIAL

Atherton Criticizes Refusal To Repair Campus Drives, Joseph Replies.

John W. Atherton, secretarytreasurer of Butler University’s Board of Trustees, today criticized the City’s refusal to repair two campus drives. The Park Board turned down a request to maintain them. Previously, the Works Board refused to repair and maintain the drives, which now are full of chuck-

holes, Mr. Atherton said, and will get worse this winter.

Claims Expense Slight

Pointing out that the university was an institution “of which Indianapolis should be proud,” Mr. Atherton said: “No other city in the country would refuse a simple request like this. The city originally built the drives and it has all the equipment necessary to maintain and repair them with very little expense.” Jackiel W. Joseph, Park Board president, and Albert H. Gisler, vice

t could not" assume more burdens this year.” “The university ought to be able to keep up these drives itself,” Mr. Joseph said. “We cannot take on any additional repair work this year and as far as I know now, it isn’t up to us to keep the drives in repair.” = Mayor Be Consulted

When Mr. Atherton protested that the university ought .to “receive some consideration” in return for the millions of dbllars which he said, “are spent by students here,” Mr. Joseph replied he would ask Mayor Reginald Sullivan about it. He said, however, he did not think] anything could be done. The drives, made of oiled-gravel, run west from E. 46th St. to Jordan Hall and swing south to Hampton Drive. They are used continually by students and faculty members going to and from classes, Mr. Atherton said. :

KUHN GIVES BLESSING TO RUSSO-NAZI PACT

WASHINGTON, Oct. 19 (U. P.).— Fritz Kuhn, German-American Bund leader, told the Dies Committee today he approved , the recent German-Russian pact but that the Bund would continue to fight Communists here. Kuhn told the Committee that it would take him 25 minutes to explain the pact when Rep. . Joe Starnes (D. Ala.) asked whether the Bund would drop its anti-Com-munistic policies because of the ct. / “We'll fight the ideology of any (Marxist) ideas,” Mr. Kuhn said. He asserted that because Great the United States and other Western powers refused to trade with Germany “it was necessary to open the door t®@ the East.” Mr. Kuhn gave the Committee a list of Bund units today and the names of some local leaders. Indiana leaders. were listed at Gary, Pred Schattat; Ft. Wayne, Henry Schaphorst, anc. South Bend, H. €| Purwein.

SHIPPING BANS

IN-NEUTRALITY

Amendment Opens Pacifie And South Atlantic to U. S. Vessels.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 19 (U. P.).— Chairman Key Pittman (D. Nev.) announced agreement of Democratic members of the Senate

/

on an amendment to' the neutrality bil South Atlantic to American shipping. ~ That action narrowed the controversy over neutrality to the sole, but

vital issue, of repeal ®of the arms embargo... The - same group has

_|agreed to eliminate the provision

granting 90-day credit to belligerents. , Democratic members of the Committee who participated in drafting the neutrality program agreed to permit surface vessels to carry any materials @xcept arms, ammunitions anu implements of war to any ports in the Western Hemisphere south of 30 degrees north latitude, which cuts through New Orleans and Jacksonville, and to the Pacific and Indian Oceans, China, Arabian Seas and the Bay of Bengal.

Aircraft Rights Defined

Aircraft would be permitted to transport all goods except munitions to any port in the Western Hemisphere. Thus, aircraft would be allowed to carry on business with Bermuda and Newfoundland—a right which ‘would be denied surface craft. Mr. Pittman, also announced agreement on an amendment to the title-and-carry section -of the bill prohibiting extension of credit to private belligerent purchasers of American-made goods. The bill already bans credit to belligerent Governments. ‘“There’s been no relinquishment whatever in the mandatory ban on any commerce with belligerents in Europe,” Mr. Pittman said. “The exceptions hecame necessary in the interests of commerce.”

Isolationists Look to House

The President’s supporters, confident of 60 to 65 Senate votes for repeal of the embargo on shipment of arms, ammunition and implements of war to belligerent nations, were hopeful that thé move to appease American shippers and the elimination of the 90-day credit clause would make it possible to obtain a final Senate vete on the bill late next week. ‘ Isolationists admitted privately that the Administration probably would win in the Senate, but said (Continued on Page Five)

2 KILL EACH OTHER DURING GUN BATTLE

FALLS CITY, Neb. Oct. 19 (U. P.).—Ralph Asendorf, 30, ex-convict

son of a policeman, and Guy Kleckinger, 5%, were dead today, each having killed the other in a pitched gun fight that excited the entire city. Kleckinger’s 2l-year-old sister, Joan, a former sweetheart of Asendorf, was critically wounded and may die. Miss Kleckinger was at a neighbor’s home. Asendorf went there and entered brandishing a pistol. She screamed. He shot her in the back as she whirled around to flee. Hearing th: shot, Kleckinger and his father ran to the neighbor’s home armed with shotguns. When they confronted Asendorf a pitched battle ensued. Previously, Asendorf had used Miss Kleckinger’s home as a hiding place for $250 taken in a robbery.
