tween Hitler and Laval.

There also were reports that Italian Foreign Minister

Count Galeazzo Ciano would

join the conference in Spain,

presumably in a move to increase Spanish war collaboration

with the Axis.

German officials, clamping down military secrecy on almost all diplomatic news, still refused to offer any explanation for the Hitler-Laval meeting, although the German radio called attention to London reports that Laval was friendly toward Berlin and that the meeting was “the most sensational development of the war.” Berlin was silent on reports that Hitler was seeking to bring the French fleet—or what is left of it—into a naval

offensive against Britain.

At London, however, British sources believed that the Nazis might attempt to use the French warships to divert the British naval forces in the Mediterranean from their campaign against Italy. In this way, according to London belief, Hitler might make use of the “nuisance value” of the French warships but would not be able to drag the French people into conflict with the British.

British Concerned About Far East

Britons also were concerned about developments in the Far East, where political speakers urged the Japanese to move against the Dutch East Indies before Britain or the United States could intervene in order to assure oil supplies necessary for the war against China. In London, the House of Commons indicated dissatisfaction with the Government's failure to give assurance that British oil firms would not sell to Japan. Japan was reported to have advised Britain that the new three-power accord with Germany and Italy had an escape clause that permitted each signatory to decide conditions under which it would go to the defense of another

signatory. :

This clause reportedly was being used by the Japanese in an effort to convince the British that they would do well to make further concessions to Japan’s program for a new order in East Asia, and presumably not to try to grab the

Dutch East Indian oil output,

Seizo Nanako, reactionary executive member of Japan's New Throne Assisting Society, urged in a radio speech that ‘his nation take definite steps in her relations with the

Netherlands East Indies while

Aerial War Slows

‘At the same time Japan was pressing negotiations for an understanding with Soviet Russia, according to dispatches from Tokyo. A Soviet diplomatic envoy at present is in Moscow attempting to work out the basis for an agreement and the new Japanese Ambassador, Gen. Yoshitsugu Tatekawa, arrives in the Soviet Capital tomorrow.

of bombed buildings and air-

The British said the aerial blitzkrieg appeared momentarily to have left London for the Midlands factory region because the Nazis do not have enough experienced night bomber pilots to wage two simultaneous attacks. Despite the new tactics, factory expecutives claimed that production now was considerably higher than before the battle of Britain

began. ‘Naval records as compiled

with President Roosevelt, publicly declared: “We need more—ships, guns, airplanes, and everything.” As we shall see, that “everything” is a pretty big order. To what extent the President will continue his policy of. giving Britain preference over our own largely unarmed military forces, on the theory that she is fighting our battle for us, is anybody's guess. But doubtless the President as Com-mander-in-Chief will continue to do as he thinks best regardless of Congressional maneuvers to stop him. : Senators, including Senator Davi I. Walsh (D. Mass.), chairman of the Senate Naval Affairs Committee, argue that international law, Congressional law, and Navy Department opposition failed to prevent Mr. Roosevelt from disposing of the destroyers. Under the Hague Treaty we agreed that: “The supply in any manner, directly or indirectly, by a neutral power to a belligerent power, of warships, ammunition or war material of any kind whatever, is forbidden.” In the Panama Convention, inspired by us, we agreed against “the fitting out or arming of any ship or vessel to be employed in the service of one of the belligerents.” Navy’s Mind Changed Congress twice this summer reaffirmed our law against disposal of any war vessel to a belligerent— once in the Defense Act amendments refusing to change that original 1917 prohibition, and later in banning the sale to Britain of the new naval mosquito boats. In June the Acting Secretary of the Navy testified in opposition to the destroyer disposal, on the ground of our own defense necessity. Since then, of course, the Navy has been brought into line by the President. ’ Now Britain is asking for any Navy equipment she can get. She is interested in submarines. The Navy is reconditioning 36 old ones, in addition to the 81 building and 104 in first-line service.

Want ‘Fortresses’ Most

But London is most interested in the Navy's giant long-range bombers (PBYs and PBMs), and the Army's Flying Fortresses. These are more essential to.the United States than fighters and small bombers, because they can meet an invader 1200 miles beyond their sea bases. Long and elaborate training is required for the crews of these mighty ships of the air, and now we have too few for patrol and training purposes. How many of the 1100 Flying Fortresses desired by the Army are now on hand is a matter of dispute. Senator Henry Cabot Lodge Jr., a reserve officer, says only 46 effectives—and Britain wants 32 of those. So desperate is the Army need, it is flying them from the factory with borrowed engines. But Britain pleads that she has no long-range bombers. Without them she can neither reach the Nazi armament factories of Silesia and Czechoslovakia, nor hold her own in Africa and the Near East. As for the British tank request, our two lone armored divisions are less than half.armed. Her demand for a quarter-million more rifles probably will be granted.

WILLKIE TAKES CAMPAIGN EAST

Insists Roosevelt Show Him Where Record Has Been ‘Falsified.’

(Continued from Page One)

placed in nomination as ‘the happy warrior.” His advisers in the half-dozen Midwestern states to which he had just carried his campaign gave him the most encouraging reports he has received since leaving Rushville six weeks ago. The tumult which closed his Midwestern tour was not all acclamation. The vast Gary industrial domain that steel and oil have built in northern Indiana gave him some tough moments yesterday. But they were momends he asked for. Gary, Hammond, Whiting, Indiana Harbor—cities of mills and refineries; of bitter, violent strikes; of people who for eight years have been on the side of Franklin Roose-§ velt for the social and labor gains he gave them. Mr. Willkie himself picked this hostile territory in which to make his claims for the Presidency. # Boos in Indiana Harbor Boos interrupted him" frequently as he spoke to 10,000 in Indiana Harbor. Some of it was the prankish booing of boys that has greeted him in other stops, but there was also the measured derision of adult men and women. Here the nominee told a throng which jammed the main street that if the American way of life fails, men who labor with their hands are those who lose most. Wendell Willkie, too, he told them, had worked with his hands. He would fight to retain all social and labor gains, and he would improve relief administration so that more of the money spent would go to the people on relief. Mr. Willkie was bruised on the temple by a missile thrown from the crowd at the La Salle St. station in Chicago as he prepared to leave. An egg thrown at the same time struck Mrs. Willkie in the back and soiled her dress. Charles Mulrain, 56, unemployed stationary engineer, who said he was a baseball player when he served in the Army in 1907, admitted in municipal court today that he threw eggs ‘at the couple and was “sorry to the bottom of my heart.” “I had from four to 10 beers at a tavern across the street and some fellows got to talking about eggthrowing,” Mulrain said. “I don’t

130 know why I did it.”

Arraignment on charges of disorderly conduct and assault with a deadly weapon, carrying a maximum penalty of one to 10 years imprisonment, was continued until Oct. 25. Mr. Willkie appeared unruitled and said he was “disturbed only that Mrs. Willkie was hit.” Speaks in Bronx Tonight Tonight, Mr. Willkie invades the territory of the Democratic organization of Democratic ‘National Chairman Edward J. Flynn to speak at the Bronx Coliseum at 7 p. m. (Indianapolis Time), under auspices

.| nationally broadcast speech from

9:30 p. m. to 10 p. m. before the New York Herald-Tribune Forum at the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel. The forum speech will denounce concentration of power in the New Deal. In a question-and-answer program broadcast nationally from his train last night, Mr. Willkie again attacked the third term issue _ and said: “If I am elected President, I shall make every effort in my power to see that the un-American road is closed forever by the passage of a Constitutional amendment that will bar for all time another grasp for the absolute power on the part of any future President.”

other men, and the product of other men’s labor. “ ‘Here are two, not only different, but incompatible things, called by the same name, liberty. And it follows that each of the things is, by the respective parties, called by two different and incompatible names—Iliberty and tyranny.

Shepherd and Wolf Cited

“And then Abraham Lincoln used this example. He said: “ “The shepherd drives the wolf

the sheep thanks the shepherd as his liberator, while the wolf denounces him for the same act, as the destroyer of liberty . .. plainly, the sheep and the wolf are not agreed on a definition of the word liberty; and precisely the same difference prevails today among us human creatures. . . . And all professing to love liberty. Hence we behold the process by which thousands are daily passing from under the yoke of bondage hailed by some as the advance of liberty, and bewailed by others as the destruction of all liberty. “And then Lincoln said this: “Recently, as it seems, the people . . » have been doing something to define liberty, and tisanks to them that, in what they have done, the wolf’s dictionary has been repudiated.’ Puts Decision to Voters

“In 1936 the people of the United States took definite action to define what they intended liberty to mean in this country for the next four years. They repudiated the wolf's dictionary. “rT am sure that this year the people not only of Delaware, but of the United States are all taking a renewed interest in that word ‘liberty.’ There are not so many countries left where the word has any real meaning. “I hope that by their votes on election day the people of the state of Delaware will reaffirm their own definition of. ‘liberty’—the same definition they made four years ago.” The address at Philadelphia will be the first of five major political

Farley Supports Ticket

He began his campaign with the support of former Postmaster General James A. Farley, the man who managed the 1932 and 1936 New Deal campaigns. In a statement issued in New York, Mr. Farley did not mention Mr. Roosevelt or his running mate, Henry A. Wallace, but appealed to Democrats to follow his lead and vote a straight ticket on Nov. 5. His statement was in keeping with his statements following the Democratic National Convention, that he would support the Roosevelt-Wal-lace ticket although opposed to a third term. Efforts of some New Deal-Democrats to get Mr. Farley to take a more active part in the campaign have made little headway. While Mr. Roosevelt bids for Pennsylvania's 36 electoral votes today, Washington observers were describing this year's Presidential contest as the bitterest since 1928 preliminary to the closést “election since 1916.

Mr. Roosevelt made his own sealed election forecast three weeks ago and yesterday told press conference questioners that if he had to do it over again now he would not make much change in the figures.

prediction is that more than 266 electoral votes—sufficient to keep him in the White House for another four years—will be cast in his column. ; There are unmistakable signs of renewed confidence among Mr. Willkie’s supporters after a slump which began shortly after his Aug. 17 acceptance speech. Political observers are writing and talking of a photo finish sometime Nov. 6, the day after the election. Such confusion as may exist in these discussions regarding the outcome arises largely from the fact that there will be two sets of returns, a tabulation of popular votes and ta tabulation of electoral votes. So far as electoral votes are concerned, Mr. Roosevelt generally is conceded the solid South, which accounts for 113, and a better than even chance to carry the border states with 55 more electoral votes. Those areas add up to 168 electoral votes, which is only 98 short of the majority necessary to win.

Willkie enthusiasm developing in this final fortnight is based on reports that his campaign is winning recognition in such states as New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and even Michigan, and on the spreading belief that outside the solid South the

Republicans believe that 1938 trend ‘has continued and Democrats contend that with Mr. Roosevelt an active candidate this year it either has been halted or reversed. But the consensus appears to be that the popular vote, at least, will be close, with some political experts predicting that one million votes

Vote Straight Ticket,

Farley Asks Democrats

NEW YORK, Oct. 23 (U, P.). — James A. Farley, former Postmaster General who opposed President Roosevelt's renomination, has announced that he will vote “the straight Democratic ticket” on Nov. 5 and has urged “the members of my party to do likewise.” His statement read: “Thirty-one years ago I was elected chairman of the Democratic town committee in Stony Point, Rockland County, N. Y., and down thfough the years I have served as chairman of my county committee, chairman of my state committee, and I am still serving as chairman of the Democratic State Committee of New York. “It was my great honor to serve as chairman of the Democratic National Committee during the two great campaigns of 1932 and 1936. I deeply appreciate the honors that have been paid me by my party and I shall ever be grateful to the party workers for the loyalty and devotion I have always received during my years of party activities. “During the period outlined above I have preached party loyalty and pleaded for the success of my party. I did that because I sincerely be= lieve in the Democratic Party, in its principles and objectives. “At the national convention of the Democratic Party in Chicago — at which I was a candidate for the Presidency—after the balloting was over I pledged my support to the nominees of that convention. That pledge was made in good faith. I shall vote the straight Democratic ticket on Nov. 5, and I urge the members of my party to do likewise.”

An example of what was meant occurred a few days ago when Ger-

mans found a telephone cable cut in two places near Paris. Twenty- | five men from each of two nearby] communities were ordered to guard the cable day and night. If it is cut again all 50 are liable to be shot.
