FC. BACKS PLAN DR LABOR PEACE

Pledges Effort to Seek Moratorium on Disputes That Might Delay U. S.

Rearmament Effort.

WASHINGTON, May 1 (U. P.).—The Chamber of Commerce of the United States today pledged itself to seek an agreement between industry and labor for a moratorium on disputes that might impede the defense program. It took this action in the final session of its four-day

convention which also approved unanimously a resolution

JONSON READY

‘FOR ANY RANK’

Ex-General Writes F. D. R.: ‘You Don’t Like Me and | Don’t Blame You.’

WASHINGTON, May 1 (U. P). —“You don’t like me any more— and I don’t blame you,” said Hugh

S. Johnson to President Roosevelt. Mr. Johnson revealed that during the controversy over his application for renewal of his reserve commission as a brigadier general—which the President has refused—he wrote a letter to the President which included that statement. It also said: “I respectfully submit that withholding it (the reserve commission) in these circumstances is neither very wise nor very consistent with what at least used to be a very close and precious friendship.”

Disputes Early’s ‘Reasons’

Mr. Johnson today took vigorous exception to the “so-called reasons” advanced by White House Secretary Stephen T. Early for the President's refusal, but avowed his willingness to serve the nation in any position “from corporal--up or down.” The President's action was announced yesterday. The reasons given were Mr. Johnson's age—58— and the fact that he has not been in active service for many years. He was director of the World War draft and commanded an infantry brigade in 1918. He became

a brigadier general in the Reserve Corps after the war and headed the NRA in the early days of the New He is now a newspaper columnist and a vigorous opponent of the President's foreign policy,

Governor Schricker buys first

The Government's campaign to sell defense savings stamps and bonds opened in Indiana today, as elsewhere in the nation, without the fanfare which accompanied the Liberty Loan drives of the World War. Governor Henry F. Schricker went over to the main Post Office this morning and gave Postmaster Adolph Seidensticker $375 in cash for a bond which will have a maturity value of $500 in 10 years. The transaction was accomplished almost without notice from Post Office patrons. But it marked the beginning in this state of the drive the Gov-

ernment is staging to obtain cash by selling new securities ranging from 10 cents to $10,000—to help pay the cost of rearmament. Defense savings stamps then went on sale at the Post Office and its main branches throughout the city and state. The stamps are pasted in pocket-sized folders. When the folders are full, they are exchanged for a bond. Indianapolis banks, some building and lean associations, the downtown Post Office and the four larger branches—Haughville, Broad Ripple, Fountain Square and Station A at 32d and Illinois Sts.— had the bonds for sale.

U.S. SECURITIES

TO AID DEFENSE

‘Soundest Investment on Face of Earth,” Says Morgenthau. WASHINGTON, May 1 (U. P.).—

J Defense savings stamps and bonds

went on sale today with a plea from President Roosevelt for “financial support to pay for our arming, and to pay for the American existence of later generations.” The Government expected to raise several billion dollars through sale of the new securities, ranging in value from 10 cents to $10,000.

Sale of the defense stamps and bonds began officially when Secretary of the Treasury Morgenthau, delivered to Mr. Roosevelt the first bond and 10 of the first stamps. At the same time, the new securities were offered to the public across the counters of thousands of postoffices and banks. “This . . . is an opportunity to share in the defense of all the things we cherish against the threat that is made against them,” the President told the nation last night in a special radio broadcast. “We must fight this threat wherever it appears; and it can be found at the threshold of every home in America. . . . “With jobs more plentiful and wages higher, slight sacrifice here, the omission of a few luxuries there, will swell the coffers of our Federal Treasury.” Mr, Morgenthau, speaking on the same program, said “your Government is frankly seeking the current, regular savings of the people.” The Government, . he added, wanted men, women and children to buy more than one bond or set of stamps, “to save regularly and systematically by putting your money into the soundest investment on the face of the earth—the United States of America.”

JAPANESE GROUP CALLS FOR ACTION

TOKYO, May 1 (U, P.) —Ultranationalistic elements started a strong campaign today to compel the Government to harden its attitude toward the United States and Great Britain and to proceed at once with its southward expansionist campaign. : Five thousand delegates of the To-Ho-Kai organization approved a resolution demanding the prompt execution of policies to attain “security” to the. south, They held that such security was-a pre-requis-ite for the: establishment of Japan's “Greater East ‘Asia co-prosperity sphere.” Action, they said, not conclusion of treaties or repetition' of state ments, was what the country wanted. .

6. M. DISPUTE

Union Officials Testify; Soft Coal Mines Are “Reopened.

‘By UNITED PRESS | The Defense Mediation Board took up the United Automobils Workers-General Motors contract dispute today. Board members heard representae tives of the U. A. W.-C. I. O., which has agreed to await Board action before calling a strike for higher wages and a union shop in G. M. C, plants. Some management repre< sentatives were present. At Detroit, C. E. Wilson, G. M. C, president, revealed the U. A. W. had rejected a proposal to spread work on $750,000,000 worth of defense contracts over Saturdays and Sune days. ; Philip Murray, present C. I. O, chief, renewed opposition to the Vinson compulsory mediation bill, providing a 25-day “cooling-off’! pee riod before strikes against defense industry. Soft coal mines reopened after being closed for a month during negotiations on a new wage cole tract by Appalacnian operators and United Mine Workers (C. I. 0). Work stoppages in defense induse tries numbered 21 as two Ohio plants reported new labor disputes,

gress voted to give, lend or lease ships, planes, tanks. guns and other war materials to Britain virtually without limit. The President got what he wanted in less time than repeal of the Johnson law would have entailed. Similarly, convoys being inexpedient and time precious just now, the President’s “neutrality patrols” may prove an effective substitute, and without debate or delay. The “patrols” may now take whatever steps he may deem necessary to deliver to Britain the American munitions produced under the lend-lease substitute for credits. 2 n 2

Wants 'Tools' Delivered

SPEAKING FOR the President, Navy Secretary Frank Knox said that, having promised aid to Britain, we ‘can only go on. We cannot allow our goods to be sunk in the Atlantic.” . Prime Minister Churchill said much the same thing in different words. He had promised victory, he said, if America gave the neces. sary “tools.” But, he added, when he said that, he meant if the “tools” were safely delivered on the other side of the Atlantic. If they are not safely delivered, he clearly inferred, defeat was likely. This, shrewd diplomatic observers here assert, dovetails precisely with President Roosevelt's stand. And he intends to extend the “neutrality patrol” wherever “hemispheric defense” may be endangered —even into the zone of combat. Authorized Nazi spokesmen declared yesterday, however, that German forces would fire on any United States ship—whether part of a convoy or alone—that enters the German blockade zone. This zone has been extended to within three miles of Greenland which the United States has taken under its protection. This, in the opinion’ of neutrals, creates a highly explosive

Criminal Court records revealed today that a 17-year-old youth has been held in the County Jail for the last 36 days by mistake. More than a month ago, the Grand Jury returned a “no bill” in the youth’s case, meaning that evidence on which he orignally was held was not sufficient to make a case. Just how and where the slip occurred in the record that resulted in the youth's continued confinement is not clear but it was traced to somewhere between Criminal Court clerks and Deputy Prosecutor Nelson Deranian in charge of the Grand Jury. Court clerks claim the “no bill” indicated there was an affidavit -

Elbert Everett Jr, 18, was charged with drunkenness, drunken driving, having no driver's license and reckless driving. His 17-year-old companion was charged with drunkenness. The chase started when Patrolmen Arthur Schlanger and Joseph Hunt saw the car speeding on Fall Creek Blvd. It continued past City Hospital, where it barely missed an ambulance. In the 800 block of Indiana Ave. the fugitive car crashed into a curb and caught fire. Police arrested the youths and summoned the fire department which extinguished the blaze.
