sible there are half a million people in the United States now well, ‘who once had the disease. The three basic weapons against the disease are surgery, radium and X-ray, he said, and no case is counted cured until five years has elapsed. ‘Records. show that in 1935 there was an 18 per cent cure of one type of cancer once thought to be incurable, and that another type, also once regarded as incurable, was cured in 14 per cent of the cases treated. Twenty-five years ago, he said, only 5 per cent of the cases of cancer of the tongue treated were cured, whereas in 1935 26 per cent were cured. : “Fifty years ago,” he said, “cancer’ was a national disgrace. Now there are 345 clinics approved by the American College of Surgeons in the country, one of them at your own City Hospital here. “Cancer is not one, but a thousand diseases, and the public will ‘be disappointed if it expects a universal cure for all types. Cancer of the breast, for instance, had nothing in common with cancer of the stomach. We’ll have to knock them over one at a time.”

and some 14,000 of them are packed into the Sportspalast
for the only public ceremony on the eighth anniversary of Adolf Hitler’s appointment as German Chancellor.
Preparatibns for the Fuehrer’s speech are made with the greatest secrecy. Although Hitler failed to speak on only one Jan. 30th since he came tO power, correspondents are warned early in the week that any speculation about whether there will be an appearance this year will be treated most seriously. Not until the Gertnghy saw their morning newspapers did they know there would. be a speech and nothing was said then of the location.
1 Many Guess Destination
Correspondents are asked to meet at the Propaganda Ministry. Many have guesséd, but they do not know, their destination until they have actully arrived. Meanwhile, the crowd has been recruited through the past night and in the morning hours, by the party “cell” or “block” leaders, the Nazi equivalent lof the precinct captain. About nooir the doors are apened. Green uniformed policemen form lines along each side of the street. Later the special guard of S. S. in their black uniforms make, shoulder to shotilder, a passageway from the street through the doors, down the long central access of the hall, and to the stage,’
Band Is Playing
In the hall a band is playing, the same band which has performed for all these meetings since Propaganda Minister Joseph Goebbels, as District Leader for Berlin, first held a meeting here in 1928. Huge red banners with their black swastikas hang from the ceiling. The front of the stage itself is white. Above &nd behind is the gold eagle of the Third Reich. Row on row of Government and party leaders take their places on the stage. Behind them are the massed standards of Boerlin’s Nazi organizations. High above is a huge banner “Victory Is With Our Flag” one of the early marching songs of the National Array, which Hitler began to build in 1934. There is an air, almost, of the camp meeting as the crowd waits. Outside, the street has been cleared. Traffic has been blocked off at the principal intersections.

Franco-German Crisis Looms
German authorized quarters indicated sympathy for ‘he new National Unity Party being set up in Paris as a rival to that of Marshal Henri Philippe Petain and reports received in Berlin told of bitter criticism against Petain in the Paris . A full-fledged Frainco-German crisis appeared in the making as Great Britain went on the alert against an expected early Nazi allout attack on the Isles. There was belief in some quarters that the French crisis was related to German preparaticns for the attack on Britain. Hitler, it was believed, desires to bolster his ad-
the greatest possible strength before launching his big offensive. Marshal Petain sent his most trusted collaborator, Admiral Francois Darlan, to Paris today in an apparent effort to bring an end to the deadlock in Franco-German relations. Laval’s Return Demanded German quarters intimated and the press of Germen-controlled Paris stated flatly that only the return to power of Pierre Laval, ousted vice premier, would ease the growing tension and make negotiations possible. There were suggestiors that Laval might re-enter the Cabinet as head of a triumvirate unde; Petain or that he might be named the agent of the Vichy Governmeni to handle all dealings with Germany. Whether Petain would - yield to such a solution was not certain. There were some suggestions that Darlan might be snubbed in Paris by Otto Abetz, Adolf Hitler's agent, unless he was prepared to offer full restitution to Laval.
Pressure on Vichy Increases As 'Darlan entered negotiations at Paris, a French newspaper published an interview in wrich he was quoted as declaring the French fleet would defend itself against attack from any quarter and protect the overseas French Empire against any challenge. He said flatly that the fleet would stay under French control. This assertion appesred to be a flat answer to the eonstantly recurring report that Germany is anxious to obtain the fleet and French bases on both shores of the Mediterranean in order to challenge British sea power there. Pressure on the Vichy Government for a settlement with Germany is increasing. A rival political body has been set up in Paris as a challenge to Petain's new one-party regime and it was learned that as many as 100 police officers have been grrested in the Paris area on charges of sympathy with Gen. Charles De Gaulle.
The officers include Roger Langeron, Paris preféct and chief administrative officer of the Vichy Government in the French capital.

Britain to achieve a “smashing victo en” : Mr. La Follette declared that in a conversation with former French Premier Edouard Daladier in February or March, 1939, he was informed that France expected “money, materials and men” from this country to fight off Germany. He sald it was the “sheerest sort of nonsense to argue that the British are looking out for our interests, that they are giving their blood and treasure to protect our way of life.” Britain is fighting because her very existence is at stake,” he added, “just as six or seven months before the outbreak .of the war she made a deal with Hitler Germany against American interests when she thought her trade supremacy was at stake.” He referred to the so-called Anglo-German Dusseldorf trade agreement. Fears Attack From Within Mr. La Follette said he was convinced that the Germans “never will come over here until and unless our economic and social life is so exhausted and pulverized that we get some kind of a Hitler over here.” “The attack won't come from without—it will come from within, as it did in France,” he said. He criticized the Administration bill as a long step toward war and he added that he didn’t “see how, if you pass this bill, Congress will have anything to say about peace or war again until our armed forces are engaged in conflict.”

The Government charged that the union sought by strikes, picketing and boycotts, to force the company to have millwright members of the Carpenters’ Union install machinery in the new plant. The company had a contract with the International Association of Machinists, also an A. F. of L. union, to do that work. The Government asserted that the union’s activity was riot to advance legitimate labor aims but to “deprive members of another union of work.” The 6 to 2 decision was written by Justice Felix Frankfurter.

been one of the potent forces in the development of industrial unions. “These conflicts have intensified industrial tension but there is not the slighest warrant for saying that Congress has made Section 20 inapplicable to trade union conduct resulting from them,” Justice Frankfurter’s opinion said.
Union Within Law
“It is at once apparent that the acts with which the defendants are charged are the kind of acts protected by Section 20 of the Clayton Act. The refusal of the carpenters to work for Anheuser-Bush or on construction work being done for it and its adjoining tenant, and the peaceful attempt to get members of other unions similarly to refuse to work, are plainuly within the free scope accorded to workers by Section 20 for ‘terminating any relation of employment,’ or ‘ceasing to perform any work or labor,’ or ‘recommending, advising, or persuading others by peaceful means so to do’’ Justice Frankfurter held that the role of labor under the anti-trust laws must be considered in the light of the Sherman Act, the Clayton Act and the Norris-La Guardia Act restricting the use of injunctions in labor disputes. “It was precisely in order to minimize the difficulties to which the general language of the Sherman Law in its application to workers had given rise that Congress cut through all the tangled verbalisms and enumerated concretely the types of activities which had become familiar incidents of union procedure,” he said.

Mr. La Follette pleaded, “with every atom of my being,” that
American people cease listening to persistent statements that it is weak and cannot fight Germany, either economically or physically. He also discounted frequent statements that the United States would not be able to compete with a German-con-trolled Europe for the world’s trade markets. “In spite of the import restrictions Germany forced upon the Latin countries and the subsidies the Reich gave her producers, Germany had a difficult time matching prices and. she never succeeded in equalling the .quality of United States products,” he said, quoting from an article in the New York Times.
