HILLKIE, WILLIS, HILLIS TICKET CAPITAL TOPIC

tility Leader Upsets ~ Prognosticators W ~ Off-record Talk

By DANIEL M. KIDN Times Staff Writer - WASHINGTON, June 1 cle, Willis and Hillis! | Hoosier Republicans here like the sound of that ticket. The ocrats do not care much for it. Senator Sherman Minton doesn’t like it at all. - He was an early backer of the fa- | vorite son idea, but that was when (Paul V. McNutt was a candidate [for the Democratic Presidential | nomination. IT | The Senator, who will be up for | re-election, knows and | respects | Wendell L. Willkie's ability. His “| only objection to him as a favorite | son is that he will be on what Sen- | ator Minton would call “the wrong | ticket.” | : | That there is some Seelinood of that happening is the growing opinien here. Although the Press Gal- | lery prognosticators are picking Taft | and Dewey as the probable combi‘nation at the present time, Mr. Willkie made a considerable upset in these predictions through his dra- | matic appearance and forceful off ‘the record talk at the National Press Club this week.

Willkie Offers Contrast

The word “dramatic” used in connection with the President of the ' Commonwealth and Southern Corporation doesn’t mean the same thing as when applied to Federal Security Administrator McNutt. The former Indiana Governor is dramatic in the customary sense. He always is fashionably dressed . © and his “tall, tan and terrific" ap- | pearance is set off with a shock of silver hair. : | Mr. Willkie is dramatic in appearance for exactly opposite reasons. Because for a fellow who holds a $75,000 job as head man of a billion- | dollar corporation, he looks surprisingly like an ordinary guy from Elwood, Ind., his birthplace. The Washington heat emphasized the New York City Hoosier’s coun- | trylike appearance. His tousled hair ~ and rumpled suit seemed proper | proof of his contention that his ‘candidacy is llke Topsy and “jest growed.” ‘But back of this facade is one! ~ of the sharpest trader minds in! America—as his speech well dem-! onstrated.

Has Ready Answer

This well-managed planlessness of the Willkie campaign was exemplified in his ready answer to a gallery questioner who asked: “Why did you leave the Democratic Party?” Mr. Willkie believes that in the historical sense in which Thomas Jefferson preached economy ip government and “That government is best which governs least,” he still is a Democrat—that these are the things which the Republican Party stands for now. Another example of the fact that the Willkie forces are retaining all the informality of an Indiana barn dance wes the announcement by Mr. Willkie at the luncheon that he had selected Rep. Charles A. Halleck: (R. Ind.) to present his name at the Republican National Convention. >

Ships' Armor,

(Fourth of a Series)

By CHARLES T. LUCEY and LEE G. MILLER Times Special Writers

WASHINGTON, June 15. —Though the possibility of 'a quick, two-ocean attack on the United States is conceded by our admirals, the Navy today .has an Atlantic

squadron built around three ancient battleships that could be outshot and outrun by modern enemy cruisers one-third their size. These battleships—the Arkansas, New York and Texas — mount 12-inch and 14-inch guns, yet they could be battered helpless by the 8-inch guns of smaller, newer vessels. The enemy cruisers ‘could

reply for lack of range. All these superdreadnaughts have obsolete anti-aircraft batterjes and insufficient elevation of turret guns. Two have obsolete propelling machinery. Most of the Navy's first-line battleships are in better condition, yet even the newest among those now at sea, the West Virginia, needs some overhauling.

Concede Weaknesses

The difficulty of keeping up with the desperate naval armament pace of other nations and of meeting new offensive weapons is indicated in a comment by Secretary of the Navy Charles Edison. . The new 35,000-ton battleships North Carolina and Washington are still- more than a year from completion, and yet, according to Mr. Edison, if he were building battleships today he would not build similar ships. It is costing about $70,000,000 apiece to send the North Carolina and the Washington to the battle line. Naval men believe that despite

| first-class fighters—and this even | before the Navy began turning | planes back to the factory for sale | to the Allies. Congress is lifting the authorization on naval planes from 6000 to 10,000; the goal for July 1, 1941, is 4000 planes on hand. “Training of naval airmen is to be stepped up from 150 to 500 a month, but it will take two or three years to reach this top figure. It will be four years before the Navy could have the pilots necessary for a major war—a long time in a blitzkrieg world. With avast planebuying program, the machines

sels. The Navy now is building about as fast as it can. without enormous expenditures for increased facilities—which in themselves would take a long time to build. Funds for expanding the shipyards are being provided. 33-Hour Work Week Naval officers have estimated it may be necessary to take time to train as many as 15000 of the 45,000 shipyard workers demanded by the expansion. | There is actually in effect in Government shipyards a “net” work week of only 33 hours—and this country, the admirals point out, is

racing with countries where hours|.

worked are perhaps twice that. Admiral Stark says the 33-hour figure is arrived at by allowing. for sick leave, holidays and Saturdays. This country is building 110 naval vessels, including 8 battleships, 2 aircraft carriers, 6 light cruisers, 14 submarines,. 30 destroyers, 2 destroyer tenders, 2 minésweepers, 1 repair ship, 1 submarine tender, 2 fleet tugs, 6 seaplane tenders, 1 mine layer, 16 submarine chasers and 1 minesweeper. . | j Great Britain is building 9 battleships; France, 4; Italy, 2; Germany, 4, Japan, shrouding everything in secrecy, is believed building 8. Construction in virtually all other categories of seafighters is bulging the shipyards of the world. Navies cannot be improvised. Wars generally are won or lost with the Navies on hand at war’s outbreak. Preparedness, Admiral Stark tells Congress, will not guarantee keeping us out of war, but lack of it invites war and disaster.

Emotions Guiding U. S., Fears Pastor Back From Europe

Make Democracy Work Here, Aid Refugees, Urges Rev. E. T. Elliott.

The United States can best serve the cause of democracy by making democracy work here, the Rev. E.

T. Elliott, First Friends Church pastor, said today. ; The Rev, Mr. Elliott has just returned from two months of touring Europe and visiting Friends organizations in many countries. His mission was to learn what Friends in this country can do to aid’ groups over there. 3 “The mission of the Friends # Church,” Dr. Elliott said, “is to preserve areas of creative peace in the belligerent countries.” He was greatly impressed, upon his return to this country, to find the great change in sentiment that had taken place during the two

months he was in Europe.

“I regard the rapid change as an evidence that the nation is being guided by its emotions and not by deep and careful thinking. “At this time, the nation should try to understand rather .than hate or fear. The United States shoulgd accept refugees from the crowded sections of Europe, especially orphaned children. ‘ “These children would displace no one now in jobs and would probably remember little of their lives in Europe and grow up to be American citizens with an American point of view.”

The tendency, apparently, has

been to over-simplify the problem

of the war, because in only that way could the mass mind be made up so quickly and strongly, Mr. BD said.

LOS ANGELES, June 15 (U. P.). —Lloyd Anderson, 31, of New York spent his'last $11.50 for 1500 circulars telling how he had contracted tuberculosis while -studying to be a physician. At dusk yesterday: he climbed out on a tenth floor ledge of the city health building and began to drop his circulars. More than 1000 spectators gathered below him. | The -leaflets were headed, “Must I be a dog?” and said: “I want open and without any strings—a private room with all .the care any patient obtains in a private institution until my case of tuberculosis is arrested or until I die. I trust society will do | her duty.” ; | Police grabbed at the thin man | with. the pallid face as he | wavered precariously. Anderson | tensed himself to leap. Homicide Captain Leroy Anderson began to argue calmly: : “Say, I don’t think you're very considerate ‘of your fellow citizens. Here you have the Fire Department and the police force tied up and we've had to block the. street and delay lots of people. Do you think you have a right to do that?” “I believe you're right. I never thought of it that way,” Anderson said, climbing back into the building. : Anderson told police he had lost his health studying medicine at North Dakota State College and at! the University of Minnesota and left New York after losing his money in an ice cream store. He was held :in a psycopathic ward for observation.

"LEADERSHIP OF UNITY--WILLKIE

Lead Nation to War, Candidate Says. .

BOSTON, June 15 Wendell L. Willkie, utilities execu-

lican Presidential nomination, said last night that no President should “lead the people to war unless and until the people insist.” “It is the attitude of the Chief Executive to prevent war if he can pussibly do so,” Mr. Willkie. told a Republican rally. “In that awful decision, he should not push Con-

‘|gress. Congress should push him.

In a democracy only the people have a right to cecide upon war. The duty of a President is to be the restraining and calming influence in all periods of crises. “And personally, in spite of my belief that we should help the Allies mm every possible way, I have been

other war. And I still am.” Mr. Willkie said the United States must have a leadership “dedicated to unity rather than division.” : “The question we have to answer,” he said, “is this: Under what kind ¢f government will this ecquntry recover most rapidly its economic strength and build most rapidly its railitary defense? Can we do this better under the New Deal or under the Republican Party?” “In t past month, in a crisis far more serious than that which this nation faces, both Great Britain and France have changed the prime ministers who were associated with the weaknesses of the past. And in the coming Presidential campaign the American people must make the same decision.” Mr. Willkie said that in order to “man the ramparts of American industry” the nation needs a leadership “dedicated to unity rather than to division,” and one which is ‘“ca-

‘rable of getting things done.”

“But. while doing everything it could to help the Allies, this new leadership should bend its major efforts to rebuilding America. And it would begin by recognizing the simple; homely fact that we all want to do something.”

Landon Criticizes

Pledge to Allies

TOPEKA, Kas., June 15 (U. P).— Former Governor Alf M; Landon, titular “ head of the. Republican Party, charged last night, while preparing to leave for Philadelphia to help draft the Party's national convention platform, that President Roosevelt's pledge of our national resources to the Allies was “the way of dictatorships.” | Mr. Landon leaves today for! Philadelphia. His statement surprised some political observers here because previously he had approved “short of war” aid to the Allies. Col. Frank Knox, Chicago publisher, Mr. Landon’s running mate on the 1936 Republican ticket, had said during a visit to Kansas City a few days ago that years would come in which this country could expect invasion, and he had warned American youths to “live hard and dan-

| gerously” in preparation for those

years. In a statement Mr. Landon said: “What has profoundly disturbed me has been the attitude of the] President as disclosed most clearly in his Charlottesville speech. “It showed a disposition to take

1 this country to the verge of war {without regard:to national opinion las expressed through Congress. The

President offered to the Allies “the material resources of the nation.” He made this offer as if the material resources of the nation were his. to dispose of. This is not the way of Democracy. It is the way nf dictatorships—the way just taken Lv Mussolini. “Our sympathies are with the Allies. We believe their defeat would be a calamity to the world, and that it would be a menace to the United States. we should sell them all the material supplies we properly can. All of us are agreed on. preparedness; going the limit for national defense. “But I am not ready:to agree that we should go into the war and send our boys overseas—for. that is what going into the war would eventually mean—and I am convinced that this is the view of an overwhelming majority of the American peoples.” Mr. Landon said “Mr. Roasevelt could not have meant to lend his speech to the British press interpretation of bringing “much nearer United States entry into the battle.” “He knows, if the British do not, that only Congress has the authority to declare war and that Conress has not the slightést. notion ‘of declaring war. Nevertheless, his language was so emotional that it lent itself to the British interpretation. It would be cruel indeed to arouse false hopes in nations that are fighting for their existence.”
