our science is like a 1940 dynamo, our sacial consciousness is like a windmill.” Cites ‘Shots in the Arm’
“I do not think President Roosevelt’s New Deal was a permanent answer to the need for social understanding. “When the President came to office in 1933 the patient was lying on a cot in the shock ward. The President gave him a shot in the arm and some laughing gas and the patient was somewhat revived. “The New Deal has been a series of shots in the arm, but has acted as a panacea and not as a final . solution of .any of our problems. “When the New Deal breaks down, if nothing more constructive is put in its place fascism will hit the country with a big bang. “And if a Republican is élected— e man like Senator Arthur H. Vandenberg for instance—this country will have a bull market that will make 1929 look like nothing. A worse depression than any we have known will follow, and then a Messiah will lead us to fascism.” Dr. Barnes said we were using a governmental system designed for a small country and completely outdated. Challenge of Education
“There would be no group of men more astounded—and a little bit grieved—than the wriiers of the Constitution if they were to return here and find we were still using the document they intended to be used at least not more than a generation. ~~ “It is the challenge of educators to bridge all these gaps.” Dr. Andrew Cordier of Manchester College spoke on “The German Shadow Over Europe.” “The countries at war are thieves robbing thieves. The Germans just started a little late. “We should reverse our usual policy of isolation in peace and intervention in war. If we did that there would be less chances of conflict. “It is increasingly apparent that any war will result in another Versailles and that Germany will be beaten lower than she was in 1914.
Urges Fight for Peace
“What we must do is gird our regources for péace and do everything possible to help attain it after the present conflict has run its course.” K. V. Ammerman, new association

president, presided over last night’s session. Mr. Ammerman is principal at Broad Ripple High. In welcoming the teachers he told them that “to the degree in which you permit self to be submerged in the interest and welfare of the youth you teach, you will bring honor to the profession and to yoursélves.” Dr. Carleton W. Atwater, First Baptist Church minister, read the invocation.
Farm Teacher Heard
* At a meeting of ‘the vocational agricultural teachers at Tech High School yesterday, Dr. Ben H. Hibbard of the University of Wisconsin warned that “the next 20 years would be blacker than the past 20 for farmers if we go to war.” “Parmers would immediately
s|profit following a war declaration,” he said, “but soon prices would skyrocket, surpluses would pile up and the farmers would face economie collapse.” Bruce-Hardy of Scottsburg, group president, asked the teachers to warn farmers against over-expand-ing and getting into debt the next two or three years. Interviewed following a talk on “Leisure’s Challenge to Literary America,” at ‘the Murat Temple, Dr. Gordon Laing of the University of Chicago said “Anybody, if he will follow a program, can discover just about all there is to know about literature.” He suggested starting with biographies of Washington, Lincoln and Franklin.

ROOSEVELT REVIVES LAKES-TO-SEA PACT
WASHINGTON, Oct. 27 (U. P.).— President Roosevelt announced today that he was reviving negotia-
tions for the Great Lakes-St. Law-
rence Waterways Treaty. He said at his press conference that he was reorganizing the international joint commission which drafted a treaty some time ago so
that the draft could be taken off the,
shelf at the State Department and
Jdusted off.
Three commission members will resign and be replaced, Mr. Roosevelt said, by three officials already on the Federal payroll.
GUARD DEMOCRACY, DR. DYKSTRA URGES
Times Special SOUTH BEND, Ind., Oct. 27— Teachers must be prepared to justify the huge expenditures of public money in schools, Dr. Clarence A. Dykstra, University of Wisconsin president, told the North Indiana Teachers’ Association convention yesterday. “A generation ago education was the principal social agency supported by public funds but it is fast being crowded out by other agencies,” he said. Dr. Dykstra cautioned the teachers meeting here that America must be wary of European entanglements and democracy must be protected through foresightedness and planning.

Dr. Laing named outstanding authors who, in his estimation, had

nessmen “may look forward to greatly increased trade with Latin America in the near future.”
‘Gains to Shadow Losses’
He said that the loss in European trade due to the present war would be more than made up by gains in Latin America. Japan, he declared, would not be a stiff competitor because she was “busy at home” and Latin America has been buying things from Europe that Japan doesn’t make. to several hundred teachers at the auditorium on trade relations between the Americas, Dr. Bengtson said the opportunities for trade were great but that U. 8S. businessmen must learn to respect their contractual obligations in Latin America. He said there had been instances of Americans “engineering ‘shrewd deals’ that seemed to follow the old axiom ‘let the buyer beware.” It was partly because of this method of trading, he charged, that valuable oil concessions have been
lost by Americans in Mexico and Bolivia.

TOKYO, Oct. 27 (U. Torun Minister Richisaburo : Nomura warned his Cabinet colleagues today that the United States probabiy would reject Japanese contentions regarding the Japanese campaign in China and that there was little prospect of a new Japanese-American commercial pact. Admiral Nomura is about to start conversations with American Ambassador Joseph C. Grew in an attempt to adjust Japanese-American
ments for continuing the JapaneseAmerican trade treaty denounced several months ago by the United States. The pact will die at the end of this year. Admiral Nomura, an ardent advocate of improved Japanese relations with the United States and Great Britain, discussed his forthcoming conversations with Ambassador Grew at a Cabinet meeting. “It is doubtful that Japan’s desires will be accepted in view of strong anti-Japanese feeling on the part of Americans,” he told his colleagues. “The Government must prepare plans assuring the importation of raw material in expectation that the United States-Japan freaty will
