HILLIS PREDICTS 6: 0. P. VICTORY
Addresses Butler Students: §
Confers With Leaders Of Purdue’ U.
By LOWELL. B. NUSSBAUM
A Republican victory in the State |$
next Tuesday was predicted by Glen R. Hillis, Republican love for Governor, In the address today before Butler University students and faculty members, Mr. Hillis, speaking at the conVocation exercises, said the “constructive program of the Republican Party is the program the people desire and will dccept.” ‘I can tell you this,” he said, because for the last two months |

of the state, meeting and talkin with thousands of people. rr heard them express their views. Robinson Presides “I have seen their indorsement of the message of hope and promise
that I have carried to them. I know that next Tuesday they are going to call the Republican Party | to take over the administration of government in Indiana”
Mr. Hillis, who is a member of | (HERE.
the Butler board of directors, was |
introduced by J. W. Atherton, Butler secretary-treasurer and a G. O. P. candidate for State Senafor. Recalling that he had left college 8s a youth to go to war, Mr. Hillis said: “That was a war that was to end all wars, and yet at this very hour many of yqu face the possibility of being called to armed service. ‘ ‘A Dangerous Plaything’
“It is a dangerous thing to play with war. Some of the acts of the administration have led many of us to fear that those high in-autheor-ity are not above inspiring war fears among the people for the effect they may have toward keeping the present administration in power for a third term. “It is my fervent hope that there will be no war and none of you are * called to bear arms for your country in foreign lands.” Mr, Hillis said the effects of over-taxation apply more crueily to young people than to any other section of the citizenship. | “The Republican Party,” he
added, “offers, the return of oppor- Denies Report That He's
tunity to youth by reducing taxes and removing unnecessary restrictions so that business and industry may expand and resume progress” | Mr. Hillis visited Purdue Uni- - versity yesterday afternoon and conferred with university | leaders. He said he was heartily, in sympathy with Purdue’s program for increas-| ing agricultural income. He promised that if elected he| would give every co-operation “in| this program to restore the Indiana farmer to a place of independence in the economic structure and to aid him in keeping Indiana in the front|
ranks of agricultural states.” |

spokesman, Virginio Gayda charged that Mr. Roosevelt was preparing to take the United States into war on the side of Britain “at any moment.” In Washington, officials declined to take any formal recognition of Gayda’s charges. The aerial conflict between Britain and Germany continued, with Nazi and: Italian planes renewing attacks on London and other objectives although bad weather apparently interrupted British attacks on German bases. Berlin claimed its air fleets, including Stuka dive bombers, battered at British targets on land and sea, sinking nine merchant ships and scoring 18 hits on a destroyer ‘and three merchantmen. A total of 27,000 tons of shipping was | reported sunk. Berlin sources claimed that the British bombing raids: were discontinued completely because of the weather, but a number of air battles were reported as a result of Nazi attacks on England.
Ships Near Dover Shelled
On the English Channel, German long range guns in France shelled British ships near Dover, reportedly without scoring any hits. More than 100 shells were fired in about 45 minutes and the whole coast shook with the thunder of guns. Greatest British interest, however, centered on the success of the first Royal Air Force attack on Naples, far down toward the ankle of the Italian boot. The British bomber attack apparently was made by aircraft based either in Egypt or Greece itself. No

In addition to tie control tower, the Cincinnati direct telephone line has been linked with Stout and Schoen Fields, the CAA radio test station at Municipal Airport and three airline offices in Indianapolis. Up to today, the responsibility for traffic control in and around Indianapolis has been solely in the hands of Mr. Emery, who enforced government air traffic regulations. But the centralization and extension of control possible under the new system was made necessary by the increase in air traffic and higher plane cruising speeds.
