Marion Clayton Anderson and Cecil Broadhurst are two of the professionals who will be seen in the revue, “You Can Defend America,” ”

Revue Goal:

U for Unity

“There can be no V for victory without U for unity” is the climax of one scene in the morale-building revue, “You Can Defend America,” to be presented Saturday and” the following Tuesday at the Murat theater under the sponsorship of the Marion county civilian defense council. The review is based on the philosophy of the victory handbook of the same title, with a foreword by Gen. John J. Pershing. With humor, catchy songs and drama, the production drives home the necessity for each citizen to build and man the three lines of the nation’s inner defense—sound homes, teamwork in industry and national unity. Executive Committee Named The war department bureau of public relations has termed the handbook “probably the most challenging statement of this nation’s philosophy of national defense that has yet been written.” Arrangments for the Indianapolis presentation are in the hands of an extensive committee under the leadership of Governer Schricker, Mayor Sullivan, Gen. Robert Tyndall, director of the Marion county civilian defense council and Clarence Jackson, director of the Indiana state defense council. J. Perry Meek is acting as chairman. Other members on the executive committee are Mrs. H. H. Arnholter, Mrs. Elias Atkins, Robert E. Bausman, Arthur Baxter, Allan Bloom, William Book, Robert Lee Broken-

BOW TO HAGUE ON JUDGESHIP

Jersey Boss’ Man Slated For Federal Bench in. - New District.

By THOMAS L. STOKES Times Special Writer WASHINGTON, May 18. — Boss Frank Hague of Jersey City finally is about to get his clutches on the federal judiciary under cover of the war and by benefit of President Roosevelt, political expediency and that sufferance known as “senatorial courtesy.” An inquiry at the capitol today disclosed that nobody in the senate will stand up to contest, or even protest, the appointment by President Roosevelt of the Jersey boss’ man, Thomas F. Meaney, to be federal judge in the state’s newly created fifth district. This issue is of national interest, particularly at this time when so much is being said about democracy, of which there is so little under Boss Hague's iron-handed regime.

Forgiven Long Ago ‘For many years Hague has been vice chairman of the Democratic national committee, and is reverentially treated by the national organization because of Jersey City’s 130,000 votes which he can deliver at will. He long ago was forgiven for his fight against Mr. Roosevelt's nomination at Chicago in 1932, for New Jersey was essential to victory in successive presidential campaigns— or at least Democratic political leaders so thought. The Roosevelt administration, in a moral and righteous era between elections, finally took after Frank Hague for his sins against civil liberties. Digging up old civil war statutes, they carried their case before the federal court in Jersey— Boss Hague had the state courts well under thumb—and got a conviction that was upheld by the supreme court here.

Gets What He Wanted

There was a saying about Washington that Frank Hague's claws were being clipped. But older men, experienced in the ways of politics, shook their heads. It looked as if the former. might be right when Charles Edison, fresh from-a tour of duty with the New Deal as assistant secretary of navy, went into the governor’s chair at Trenton and began to tighten the screws on the boss. But the sages were truly wise. For Boss Hague now gets a federal judge, which is what he always has wanted. In vain did Governor Edison protest. Boss Hague’s support is needed this November to re-elect Senator Smathers (D. N. J.), who has reigisusly Ioligwed the New Deal ne.
