Power Plan, Creates Advisory Group.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 17 (U, P)). —Declaring there is an urgent need for developing power on the - St. Lawrence River for defense industries, President Roosevelt today created an advisory committee to conduct preliminary work on the project. He announced this move in a Special informative message to Congress in which he said that he has allocated $1,000,000 from his special contingency funds to finance preliminary borings and other exploratory work. The message amplified a press conference announcement - by the President Tuesday regarding the preliminary work. At that time he said he planned to allocate $100,000. The President said today that development of the St. Lawrence rapids is “an essential part of the program of continental defense” to provide power for defense -industries both. United States.” Mr. Roosevelt made no mention of any treaty with Canada under which -the power project would be authorized. His message left unanswered the question whether the rapids could be developed. without a treaty. He mentioned only power development, and said nothing regarding disputed proposals for waterway development.

HILLIS WARNS OF WAR PERIL
Draft Not Peace-Time Plan, Candidate Tells G. 0. P. | ‘Women’s Clubs.
The draft registration brings up some “serious questions” in the nation, Glen R. Hillis, Republican candidate for Governor, said in an address before the Associated Republican Women's Clubs at the Columbia Club today. “Do not make the mistake of thinking that these boys have been called for ‘peace-time service, he warned. “We pray that war may never come to our shores and we are firm in the intention that no American boy be sent to Europe but already the war clouds are gather-
Reviewing national defense activities, Mr. Hillis said: : : “The reserves of the Army and Navy are being called out and our ships are sailing the Pacific stripped for action, yet the Government at Washington tells us nothing and we know of no real reason why the United States should contemplate war with Japan.
Declares for Peace
“Are we going to war or are we already at war? These questions are serious, not only for every boy who registered but for every mother and father in Indiana and the nation.” He declared that the Republican Party is a party of peace and asserted that “Wendell Willkie would not permit scrap iron and other materials of war to be shipped to a potential enemy even up to the date of registration of your sons.”

In Heavy Re
By LOWELL B. NUSSBAUM
Arch N. Bobbitt, G. O. P. state chairman, today predicted a smashing Republican victory Nov. 5, on the basis of reports received at a meeting of the state committee yesterday. : The heavy gain in vote registration throughout the state, he said can mean nothing but an increased Republican vote.
Mr. Bobbitt told the State Com-| mittee members they should renew
their efforts to line up the doubtful voters for the G. O. P. ticket. Glen R. Hillis, the nominee for Governor, warned against over-op-timism. “We've got to, and we're going to, get the votes in the ballot box, and we're going to get them counted,” he declared. Mr. Bobbitt and most of the committee members left today for Evansville to greet Wendell L. Willkie, who was to make a brief visit there.
Fears U. S. Insolvency
Republican county candidates and party leaders unleashed a barrage of campaign oratory last night at a series of North Side precinct meetings. Herman C. Wolff, the Republican nominee for Mayor two years ago, told voters that national bankrupty “is as sure as the sun and stars” unless ‘“de do an about face.” He urged the voters to repudiate the “third termer, this indispensable man, and ¢lect Wendell Willkie, who

i knows what it takes to make a I dollar.” | Frederick E. Schortemeier, former (Secretary of State, declared the Democratic party has made no progress in the last eight years and couldn't be expected to make any in the next four years. “A third term,” Henry M. Dowling, attorney, told a Fourth Ward Willkie Clubs audience, ‘gives the in-
own importance and contempt for those who differ from him.”
