DAVIES CHARGES NAZI ATHEISM
Tells I. U. Graduates War Is Assault on Decent Living Principles.
BLOOMINGTON, Ind, May 11 AU. P.)—Joseph E. Davies, former U. 8S. ambassador to Russia and Belgium, told Indiana university graduates last night that Germany's
“implacable will for war” was based on a 100-year campaign of German leaders to provide philosophical Justification for “totalitarian gangsterism, aggression and atheism proclaimed as moral by the Nazis today.” ‘In a commencement address at the 113th annual exercises, Mr. Davies denied the present conflict was an economic struggle and asserted the allied nations were “preparing and willing to go to the utmost limit to adjust any alleged economic injustices as bstween ‘have’ and ‘have-not’ nations.”
Assault on Theory
“This was a deliberate assault of a world theory or philosophy, which aimed to dominate the earth by military force and conquest,” he said. “It was an attack upon the fundamentals of decent life, and upon a civilization based upon Christian and altruistic principles. « « «» There was no will for peace but an implacable will for war and conquest, so far as the dictators were concerned.
“Were it Mein Kampf alone,|.
the menace would not now be so great. But, behind Mein Kampf and behind Hitler there were other books and other men who for several generations had been making Germany a fertile soil for Hitler.”
Calls for Sacrifice
Mr. Davies said Americans must have the capacity to make the supreme sacrifice if we are to survive this challenge and be worthy of our heritage. “We must prove that democracy does not mean decadence and that our ideals do not imply lack of course or conviction. Honorary LL.D degrees were conferred on Mr. Davies, Edward Conradi, former pesident of Florida State college for women; L. A. Pitt-| enger, president of - Ball State Teachers college, and James Fisher, vice-chairman of the American Red Cross, Washington.

Armstrong of Elkhart, member of the class of 1926, was reelected president of the University alumni association at the annual alumni luncheon yesterday. Dr. Bert E.

SOUTH BEND, Ind. May 11 (U. P).—J. Edgar Hoover, director of the FBI, believes that “foreign inspired groups that put their homeland first” should be dissolved, but that America should guard against oppression of “liberty-loving aliens.” “The time has come when we must seek the end of the foreign inspired groups that put their
