Relaxation of financial burden of payment of Germany’ s occupation costs. 5. Release of the 1,800,000 French prisoners still held by Germany. ~ How Gefmany Might Benefit ‘Germany might get: '1.

ing. He asked the crowd whether the President had told Congress that war was coming and demanded appropriation of sufficient funds to build an adequate defense. Some in the crowd answered that Mr. Roosevelt had not discussed the situation with Congress.
Seeks 100 Billion Income
“Why, he told Congress to go home,” Mr. Willkie asserted, “declaring ‘I can handle the international situation. “Yet, if Congress had not stayed in session there wouldn't be a dollar appropriated for defense.”
kie said he wanted to bring about a United States with an income of more than 100 billion dollars. The announcement regarding replies to Mr. Roosevelt came as Mr. Willkie renewed his canipaign for the two richest electoral prizes, New York and Pennsylvania, which cast 83 of the 266 electoral votes necessary for election. He speaks _in Wilkes Barre tonight. Mr. Willkie began his replies to Mr. Roosevelt over a National Broadcasting Co. network from his railroad car parked at Harbor
President’s Philadelphia speech. His formal speech tonight, which
‘will not be broadcast nationally, is
scheduled for 8 p. m, (Indianapolis Time), just as the coal miners’ feader, President John L, Lewis of the United, Mine Workers of America (C. I. O.), goes on the air over all three major networks to announce his choice for President, Mr. Willkie will return to his train after the Wilkes Barre speech for a “chat” with the voters from his private car over the Columbia ‘Broadcagting System from 9:30 to 9:45 p. m. Promises to End Bad Feeling
The Republican nominee returned to his old home town of AKron, O., last night fo pledge that he would make America “a land where there- is no wrong side of the tailroad tracks” and to promise “to put an end to this era of bad feeling” between labor and management so that workers and employers together can bring about “a growing economy.” “Collective bargaining as conceived by the New Deal is not true collective bargaining,” he said. “The New Deal concept is reactionary concept. “The true purpose of collective bargaining is to achieve a coordination of ‘effort by the Amer-
Ble
ican people and co-operation between them.

gree to which Jatent resources in Indiana population can be ‘and are being developed.” * Immediately after these resolutions were® adopted, Mrs, James L. Murray, Indianapolis, president of the Indiana Parent and Teacher Council, reminded the teachers that the schools are “the first line of defense when our. American way of life is threatened,” and assured, them the council is supporting the association in its program. Other resolutions called for a new system of text book selection which would allow local units to choose | © from an approved list; asked that no change be made in the present selection of personnels of county tax adjustment boards; and asked, for new formulae whereby the] “costs of edubation may be levied] upon the citizenship of the state according to the principle of ability to pay.” Warden to Speak At a twin session at 2 p. m. this afternoon teachers were to hear James Johnston, Warden of the U. S. Penitentiary, Alcatraz Island, Cal., and Dr. Edwin Lee, University of California school of education dean, at Cadle Tabernacle and see Cornelia Otis Skinner, stage actress,
modern character sketches at the Murat Theater. Capt. Gordon Heriot, Pan-Amer-ican authority, will speak on *“PanAmerica in the New World Order” at the final session at 7:30 p. m. at .Cadle Tabernacle. Also on the program willsbe songs by the Indiana State Choral Festival Associasion, a group of 600 public sthool pupils from over the State, directed by Harold Rothert of Madison. Hear’ Chicago Judge
Teachers jammed into the Cadle Tabernacle last night, filling nearly every seat in the auditorium, to hear Judge J. M.. Braude of the Chicago Boys’ Court assert: “If the law curiously enough allows each dog a bite before we say he is mad, we at least should allow every boy a chance to prove he is not bad. “I like bad boys for whatever potential goodness there is in them. As a rule, it is not the boy who is wrong but the things he does that are wrong.” Judge Braude charged “ydu don’t salvage human souls by sending anybody to jail. That is especially true of boys. They come out of jail worse than when they went in.” Although for the most part the teachers’ sat through the evening session observing their best classroom manner, a burst of applause greeted the judge's statement:
Urges Constructive Toys
“If you allow children to play with destructive toys some of them will get into trouble.” He urged that children be furnished toys that are “constructive. rather than destructive.” Other factors he listed as contributing - to delinquency of youth were the wrong type of adventure literature, marijuana, intoxicating beverages, automobiles, basement clubs and street gangs, ill-advised movies ‘and radio programs, wrong, type of comic strips, unemployment and divorce of parents. Miss Margaret Sweeney of Jeffersonville, president; told the teachers they had a two-fold duty in the schools: To teach leyalty to democratic institutions and to aid youth in dealing with unemploy-
lems. Praising the union “of the state association with smaller ones in the state,” she said it would help the association beccme a stronger influence Jn promoting welfare of teachers® and to. strengthen the schools. Urging that the pay of elementary teachers be elevated to the level of high school teachers, Miss Sweeney said legislation should be pushed to offer ‘the democratic doctrine of equalized opportunity to teachers as well as children, The renumeration of teachers has not kept pace with the requirements:”
DuShane Is Speaker
Donald DuShane of Columbus, president of the National Education lation, told the teachers “we need public faith more than we need public money.” He pointed out that the real threat to the U. S. is not by armed invasion, but by attacks on democratic institutions from within the country. National Education Association delegates elected at yesterday’s Congressional district meetings when the nomination committee was chosen were: A. C. Senour, East Chicago, first. district; Mrs. Hazel Cooper, West Lafayette, second; L. H. Russel Elkhart, third; Noel Whittern, Ft.

in| through Hitler's genius for offensive warfare in the air, on land and under sea. The German people were led to speculate on an easy road to viclory. Now, however, while Hitler is trying to control events in Spain and France, the Nazi Government has prohibited all speculation at home and has threatened action against foreign correspondents in Berlin {who might endeavor to evade the ban. Hitler seems to be guarding against raising hopes at home that may not be justified by the results of his negotiations. What news is allowed publicity in Berlin seems to emphasize the | politieal character of the Puehrer's talks with = Franco, Petain, and | Laval rather than their military | significance.

Thé anti-climax “ results of Hitler's assurances that his air and invasion plans would subdue Great Britainzin a few weeks seem likely to. be repeated’ now in the Mediterranean. A significant change has suddenly taken place in Ber, lins” way of treating Hitler's war plans. “Throughout the summer and early’ autumn the Germans were permitted fo prophesy the imminent -|collapse of the British Empire
and the French Navy with
pared at the new Hitler conferences. It is well within the possibilities that unification of a European bloc including France and Spain urging peace is the basis of Hitler's present activities rather than trying to enlarge the area of war for indefinite prolongation of the conflict. Such a plan would envisage placing moral responsibility upon Britain before the world for continuing the war instead of granting Hitler the right to control continental Europe.
Hitler as- the dictator of moral standards would give rise to irony in Great Britain. Nevertheless, the authoritarian leanings of the.,men of Vichy may give Hitler hope that France might officially support him if he accuses the British of immarality in continuing to fight for democracy. If France and Spain remain nonbelligerent, it is difficult to see-how Hitler can hope for any advan-
tageous results from. his present maneuvers, if they are not, political. No major col uences can accrue from German use of French bases in the terranean and the eastern Atlantic’ slong the African coast. Reports that Hitler desks such minor military concessions as. these would not justify the im ce attached to his personal negotiations th Laval and Petain. Germany| as only submarines and airplanes that | ‘could reach the French: bases in any number. : Italy offers better Medigerranean bases than France for’ German operations, except for Syria, which is more than a thousand miles from present German wer Italian bases. That distance would interfere seriously with transport by air or under sea of sufficient supplies to give Syria large value to the Germans. The African Aflantic coast ports’ have only minor possibilities for German submarine use because British ships in that vicinity are scattered far at sea. German undersea craft operating there would have to be withdrawn from the more natural: submarine areas near the British Isles where British vessels offer better targets as they concentrate to arrive at their home ports.
