serve our trade interests—agricultural and: industrial—in}

- many valuable ways during the existing wars.

U. S. Must Use Influence

“But what is more important, the trade agreements act should be extended as an indispensable part of the foundation of any stable and durable peace. “The old conditions of world trade made for no enduring peace; and “when the time comes, the United States must use its influence to open the trade channels of the world in order that no nation need feel compelled in later days to seek by force of arms what it can well gain by peacéful conference. For this purpose, we need the trade | agreements act even more than when | it was passed. “I emphasize the leadership which this nation can take when the time . comes for a renewal of world peace.

| | expressed understanding of those—

| the isolationists—who warn that they never again would consent to | sending American troops abroad to fight. “But, as I remember,” said the President, “nobody has asked them to consent—for nobody expects such an undertaking.” >

Hits at Rule by Force

There is a vast difference, he said, between keeping out of war and pretending that this war is none of our business, explaining that without going to war we can, at least, strive with other nations to encourage the right kind of peace. “Por it becomes clearer and clearer,” the President continued, “that the future world will be a shabby and dangerous place to lve in—even for Americans to live in— if it is ruled by force in the hands of a few. “Already the crash of swiftly moving events over the earth has made all of us think with a longer view. Fortunately, that thinking cannot be controlled by partisanship. The time is long past when any political | - party or any particular group can curry and capture public favor by labeling itself the ‘peace party’ or the ‘peace bloc’. That label belongs to the whole United States and to every right thinking mah, woman and child within it.” Out of military and diplomatic turmoil, he said, two facts had emerged: 1. The United States accomplishment toward establishment of a good neighbor policy with South and Central America is without precedent. 2. Public opinion in almost every nation is convinced that the United States is and will continue to be potent and active in seeking world peace. - Production at 1929 Level

National ptoduction has returned to 1929 levels, the President reported, but unemployment of millions of men and women remains a symptom of maladjusted economics despite the fact that the number of jobless has decreased. He reted the “European expedient” of utting the johless to work produc1g excessive armaments and said he would encourage the “American way’—re-employment through greater production and an increas~ ing ‘national income. Scoffing at “easy platitudes, ” the President said that the nation could Joy go back “to ways that have a “THe American people,” he insisted, “will reject the doctrine of

Hope Lies in Unity

But In “national unity” Hes democracy’s salvation here, the President warned in concluding para- _ graphs of the message which spurned doctrines which set group against group, faith against faith, race against race and class against class. Such doctrines, he said, were

‘head acted in the House.

Quickly into the House hopper went report of the Dies Committee, which has been investigating unAmerican activities. The committee found small but ambitious groups of Americans and others seeking to impregnate American

eign idealogies, including communism and fascism, and advanced its reasons for askIng a continuance of authority to continue its inquiry. Bankhead in Morning Attire

Speaker Bankhead, in morning attire, held open house in his office just before the session to greet new members and welcome returning veterans. Secret Service men and Capitol Police were scattered throughout the building. Senate Majority Leader Alben W. Barkley, unusually jovial and in formal attire, called on Vice President Garner, who joshed him about his “fancy britches.” - Senator Barkley told reporters that he is not used to formal dress because they do not constitute “working clothes.” Mr. Garner, himself, was dressed in formal cutaway and striped trousers. He smoked a cigar, as always before he had to put it out at noon in| accord with Senate rules. Members Quieted At 12:20 p./m. Speaker Bankhead sent Sergeat-at- -Arms Kenneth Romney around the floor to ‘“request the m mbers kindly to cease audible conversation.” Three minutes later Mr. Bankhead again interrupted the first roll call to restore order. Members were wandering through the aisles, shaking hands and conversing. Mr. Bankhead finally announced 386 members present. New. members stood before the rostrum with colleagues from their states. : House was quiet as

them. Majority Lhader Sam Rayburn, at 11:29, told the Speaker the President had been notified that Congress was in| session, “and would be pleased to address the House in person at 1 p. m’ The House then recessed. In the Senate, 72 members answered “here,” after which the Senate approved the customary resolutions notifying the President that Congress is ready to proceed to business. It also recessed until. 1:40

Mr. Frank’s right leg was injured, but he refused medical attention and drove off after reporting the accident to police.

Two Men Burned

Two men were taken to the hospital last night after each received severe burns in their homes.

Frank Miller, 76, of 435% N. Noble St., Apt. 3, received second and third degree burns on his body, face and hands when his bathrobe ignited as he was putting coal on the fire. His calls for assistance were heard by George Sortwell, 32, who lives in the same house.

removed, according to messages received here, Russia had hoped to make the Mannerheim Line untenable by sending a force down the lake shore where it would be in pésition to attack the Finnish left wing and drive westward directly along the defense line. Roads Strewn With Material

The asserted collapse of this effort was attributed partly to the

destruction of the Russian 163d division, 18,000 men, farther north in’

winding roads in the thick forests strewn with useful Russian mate-

ial. Strategically, according to military experts, the Finns all along their 1200-mile line from the Gulf of Finland to the Arctic Sea were in better position than at any time since the start of the war. Five of 12° separate! Russian thrusts between Lake Ladoga and the Arctic Sea had been smashed, experts said, and great quantities of war materials — which the Finns need ba !ly—had been captured.

Reserves in Attack

For the present, it was asserted, not only had Russia’s flanking movement failed in the south but immediate hope of driving across to the Gulf of Bothnia in mid-Finland had gone glimmering. Russian reserves were thrown into

United States can be said to be seriously affected by these essentially foreign. or un-American activities. “That leaves about 131,000,000 Americans,” the Committee said, “who are still as sound and as loyal to American institutions and the Democratic way of life as they ever were.” j In a special section of the report designated, “The Problem of the Labor Movement,” the Committee sald that it had found evidence of “Communist leadership entrenched”

|in, the following C. I. O. unions:

National Maritime Union; United Cannery, Packing and Allied Workers: Federation of Architets; Chemists and Technicians; Fur Workers International Union; International Longshoremen’s and Warehousemen’s Union; Transport Workers Union; United Office and Professional’ Workers Union; American Communications Association; United Electrical Radio and Mechanical Workers of America, and the United Furniture Workers of America. The Committee’s report charged that the German-American Bund and the Communist Party of the United States are subservient agents

of Germany and Russia, respectively.

Seven major accomplishments claimed by the Committee include the conviction of Fritz Kuhn, Ger-man-American Bund leader, on embezzlement charges and indictment of Earl Browder, Communist Party

‘| secretary, on charges of falsifying|

passports. The Committee did not directly recommend its continuance, although Chairman Martin IL. Dies (D. Tex.), has introduced resolutions to extend its life for two

ears. . In listing four reasons for the two-year extension the Committee pointed out that “the committee has been deluged with offers of evidence of extreme importance to the American public.” It declared that subversive groups have been seriously disorganized and urged that support be given the Committee to effect their “complete rout.”

In addition to the Kuhn conviction and the Browder indictment, the committee cited the following “results” of its investigation: The prosecution of Nicholas Doz-

for the Communist International. The “flight of William Dudley Pelley, Asheville, N. C., head of the Silver Shirts. ‘That Arno Rissi and Mrs. Lesle Fry, “West Coast Nazi and Fascist leaders,” have “fled the country.” That officials of the Russian propaganda agency, Bookniga, pleaded guilty to faiure to register under the Foreign Agents Law, and that similar cases are being prepared by the Justice Department. “Many bills of a corrective nature have ‘been introduced and passed by the House.” They are now pending in the Senate. In dealing with Nazis and Communists, the committee said, “we find little to distinguish one (dictatorship) from the other.” With the signing of the .Soviet-Nazi pact, it added, “these movements have been

The fox saw he was outsmarted, s0 he picked up the chicken, which didn’t even have .enough sense to go into the hen house last night but was roosting in an evergreen tree. Mrs. Miller turned a flashlight beam into the yard and saw the fox, complete with chicken. He stood for a full minute, sh said, fascinated by the light, and then made off before Andy and his son could get out after him. The ducks also use the open space for cold feet. Snow gets their feet terribly cold and there are only two methods for a duck to treat cold and winter-sore feet. One is to sit on them; but that’s not so satisfactory because it is very confining.

The other is to jump into the]

Communist Party “ironts,” the committee said, gre the American League for Pesce\gnd Democracy; International Workers Order; Amer= ican Student Union; Friends of the Soviet Union; National Negro Con-

Of the American Youth Congress, whose leaders have been defended by Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt, and which was linked with communism in committee testimony, the committee said it had no central membership, but affiliated other organizations of young people, “The vast majority of which have no connection with communism, naziism, or any movement of that sort.” Evidence has shown, the Committee said, that the Bund “receives its inspiration, program and direction from the Nazi Government of Germany.” There are 69 local posts, operating “similar to the Nazi groups which were built up in Austria and Czechoslovakia prior to their annexation by Germany.” An attempt to form a united Fascist movement failed, it said when retired Maj. Gen, George Van Horn Moseley, who was “being seriously considered” as the nation-

al leader, was called before the Dies

Committee and “exposed.” Groups and individuals which participated in efforts to weld the Fascist organizations, were named as the Knights of the White Camellia headed by George Deatherage; the Militant Christian Patriots, led by Mrs. Leslie Fry; the Silver Shirts headed by Pelley; the Rev.
