Mr. von Wiegand’s cablegram to Universal Service, "live prisoners sometimes remained chained to those who had died for days." Newspapers In, Pennsylvania. 265 of them, have celebrated "press prestige” this week. Governor Earle tells the editors, presumably shivering with de- . light and surprise, about “the important part that newspapers play In the Uvea of otiP people." Jt Is as Important lis the part played by the people’s eyes and ears, and might be taken for granted by now. Napoleon knew about It when he said that. If he allowed freedom of the press, bls power would not last six weeks. Stalin, Hitler and Mussolini could make speeches about it. The newspaper Is a mirror In which the public tees Itself, the newspaper’s owner and the civilization of the moment. Interesting reflections of that civilization may appear soon In dispatches from Ethiopia and from Ixmdon in case Miixsollnl should send his first 500 airplanes in the direction of Buckingham palace, the house of commons. Downing Street and the Bank of England, with the message: “What do you think of explosive and , mustard gas sanctions?" The pathetic thing In journalism, as in* politics, is the lack of mimes that the people know. Millions of Americans read newspapers with no faintest conception as to the character of the man whose newspaper they read.. It might be called "anonymous nonentity.” There are exceptions. The most Important and influential newspaper by far. in proj>orthtn to circulation. Is the so-called "country newspaper,’’ smaller dailies and weeklies.

ITALY having rejected the peace plan 1 proposed by the League of Nations committee of five, and Ethiopia having accepted it, the committee reported to
the league council that Its efforts to solve the problem were futile. The council thereupon held a public meeting and adopted unanimously the recommendation of its president, Enrique Ruiz Guinazu of Argentina, that it proceed under article 15 of the covenant, drafting a report and recommendations

I for settlement of the It-alo-Ethloplan embroglio. j As they did once before, the Italian ] delegates walked out of the meeting. ( and a spokesman explained that this . was because they "would not sit at the same table with Ethiopia." With other ’ prominent Fascists, the Italian repre- I sentatlveg repaired to the lobby bar. ordered drinks and rather ostentatiously consumed them and marched out. In a secret session the council drafted its report and framed Its recommendations; but It also asked the : committee of five to reconstitute Itself ■ so it would be ready to take advantage ’ of any opportunity for mediation that goffered In the near future. A feature of the council’s session was an address by Capt. Anthony Eden, British minister for league affairs. i Conversations in Rome between Brtlsih 1 Ambassador Sir Eric Drummond and Premier Mussolini had led some to think Great Britain was weakening. ( but Eden announced his government j was “steadfastly determined to abide j by its policy" as previously declared. He said in part: I “In addressing my colleagues at the ,■ council on September 4 I expressed the view that It was our duty to use the machinery of the league that lay to our hands. “Such is still my view. I therefore support without^qualification the proposal of tlie president of the council, since we are now working under article XV, that the council should t draw up a report of the recommendations provided for In paragraph IV of that article. “So long as the council Is engaged i In drawing up a report of the recommendation the work-of conciliation can continue and it is clear that no oppor- i (unity for such conciliation within the terms of the covenant should be missed." Eden’s st ti tide was supported by I Peter Munch of Denmark and . Maxim Litvinov of Russia. On the whole, prospects for settlei ment of the African affair were very j dim. It was reported that Mussolini i had said to Count Charles de Chambrun, French ambassador to Rome: | “I will Invade Ethiopia on the date I fixed a month ago." Emperor Haile Selassie wired the league requesting that in view of the j “increasingly provocative attitude of Italy” neutral observers be dispatched I to Ethiopia to establish responsibility in esse a clash occurs. i Great Britain Informed Italy that i her tremendous naval concentration in I the Mediterranean was not ordered | with any aggressive motive' but bei cause of the violent anti English camI palgn carried on by the Fascist press | of Italy. The massing of the British • warships at Gibraltar, Malta. AlexanI drla and the Sues canal continued, and I Italy responded by rearranging her . naval dispositions. Also the flow of Italian troops to East Africa was continuous. and It was announced in Rome that 20(1.000 soldiers of the classes of Wll, 1912, 1913 and 1914 had reported for duty. This brought to the total Italian mobilization. which Mussolini some time ago promised would be the mark reached before October 1. One result of the supposedly improved relations between England end Italy was the cancellation of the sailing of 16,000 more Italian troop* to Libya, which colony borders on Egypt. PREPARING for the Imminent probability of war between Italy and Ethiopia. Secretary of State Cordell Hull established an office of arms and munitions control to carry out the provisions of the neutrality act and direct federal control of the munitions traffic. The office is under the direction of R. Walton Moore, assistant secretary of state. Joseph C. Green la chief of the office and ha* as hi* assistant Charles W. Yost. On recommendation of ; the board President Roosevelt proclaimed that hereafter manufacturers, importer* and exporters of six categories of war Implements must obtain licenses for export* and Import*. The articles named comprise only weapons and other articles used In actual combat such as guns, war vessels, military aircraft and poison gas. Secretary Roper told reporters that the munition* control board is studying the question of whether certain raw material* should also be classed with munitions. AMERICAN Legionnaires in convention in St. Louis adopted with about* of approval a resolution for active opposition to "mud-lsm, fascism, communism and other ism* contrary to the principle* enunciated in the Constitution." Still cheering, the delegates followed that up by asking the withdrawal of United State* recognition of soviet Russia. The veterans commended recent tertsiation for national defense and called for a larger army, continuation at the officer*’ training camps, the C. M, T, tt and R. O. T. C. in schools, and for ■
a navy equal to any tn the world. They asked all nations to work for world i peace, and approved the neutrality resolution of the last congress. Cleveland, Ohio, was awarded the 1936 annual convention after four ballots. The national American Legion band championship was won by the Chicago Board of Trade post musicians. Franklin post was second, Omaha third, -and Mineral Springs, Texas, fourth. At their final session the veterans elected J. Ray Murphy of Ida Grove, lowa, national commander, and passed ,a resolution demanding Immediate cash payment of the soldiers’ bonus. Vice commanders chosen were: Raymond A. Gales of Virginia. W. E. Whitlock of South Sarolina, Whitney Godwin of Florida, Oscar Worthwine of Idaho, Lou Probst of Wyoming. Mrs. Melville Mucklestone of Chicago j was elected president of the American ‘ Legion auxiliary. j OOFT coal miners were victorious in the negotiations for a new wage agreement, and resumption of work in the mines was promised for October 1. The men were out on strike for eight ! days. Operators yielded to the union ■ demands when they learned that re- ' lief officials would aid the strikers. j A ÜBREY WILLIAMS, first assistant to Relief Administrator Harry Hopkins, said in an interview that the unemployment problem will not be
solved by a business pick-up unless industry “shares Increased bust n e ss . with the workers.” He asserted that the present gain In business has put few more people to work, and explained this fact by attributing it primarily to Increased efficiency which permits employers to produce more goods than before

with fewer employees. Williams said there had been a drop in the number of people on relief, but he attributed this largely to a “hardboiled” policy under which the rolls were combed of ineligibles. “As fast as they go from relief to ( jobs, we get as many new ones on relief who have exhausted their sav- | Ings,” he asserted. “We have become pretty darned hard-boiled on relief. “Even the National Industrial Conference board says there is more unemployment now than a year ago," he continued. “Business absorbs new business without increasing employment. They get a dividend out of It, but no new jobs are given. We are not feeling any benefit as far as most ; of our clients are concerned.” By executive order the President j added 0(10.000 to the sum which Harry Hopkins has to spend as PWA administrator, making the total at. his * command PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT cleaned up most of the official business on his i desk and started on his vacation trip to San Diego, whence he will return through the Panama canal. Mrs' Roosevelt and a large party of officials accompanied him on the special train to the coast. At the last minute the President decided to si>eak to the midwest farmers, and this address was delivered Saturday at Fremont. Nelx The program called for a set speech at Boulder dam, another in the Hollywood bowl at Los Angeles, and one at San Diego. In addition the Chief Executive talked to the gathered crowds at many of the operating stops made by the train. PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT sent identical. letters to a large number of the more prominent clergymen of the country asking for “counsel and advice" because he felt no group could give more accurate or unbiased views of conditions and needs In their various communities. His letter said he was “particularly anxious” that the new social security law be carried out as conceived and added that the work relief program was “vitally important." A flood of replies wept to the White House. Many of them were entirely in sympathy with the administration’s policies. Many others were sharply critical of the New Deal There were some who thought the President was trying to drag the pulpit into politics. T> EPUBLICAN national committeein- men met in Washington and began the serious preparation of the Presidential campaign. It was decided unanimously that the party efforts in the western states should be most vigorous and should begin immediately. Headquarters will soon be opened In Chicago with National Committeeman Harrison Spengler of lowa tn charge, and funds were allocated for Its expenses. The committee did not discuss candidates or the selection of a convention city. The latter will not be chosen until the winter meeting. At present Chicago, St Louis and Kansas City are the leading contenders, with the last named in good position because of its new air conditioned convention halt Rumors that the Republicans would attempt to bold their convention after the Democratic convention next summer were discounted for the reason that the Democra tic gathering will be merely a ratification meeting for the renomination of President Roosevelt, which can be held any time next summer or fall, whereas the Republicans wish to get their campaign under way early next summer.

National Topics Interpreted Z-a by William Bruckart National Press Building Washington, D. C. ———u—- ■
Washington.—l believe the trend of recent developments begins to Indicate
Party Backs Roosevelt
Democratic party behind him in his next campaign. The chances of a split in his ranks are very small, indeed, and barring changes of which there are at present no hints at all, the New Deal will encompass the Democratic party which nominated and elected Mr. Roosevelt as President By those statements, it is not meant that no defections will take place. There always are some disgruntled and dissatisfied party men who break away. They have done it with Republicans and Democrats with equal abandon. There will be some in the 1936 campaign. but not very many. These statements are made byway of discounting offshoots of consequence under radical leadership and offshoots of equal consequence behind old-line conservative Democratic leadership. It Is, of course, just possible that William Randolph Hearst, the publisher, and Bainbridge Colby, secretary of state under Woodrow Wilson, may succeed in development of a conservative alignment with major support but the situation is not one likely to cause the New Deal leaders any particular embarrassment. Likewise the death of Senator Huey P. I Long . removes what might possibly have been a radical party wedge. The late Louisiana senator was making some progress in development of a radcial party but with him removed from the scene there is no Ibnger any possibility of that group attaining a place of importance in the political structure. They are fighting among themselves and It is apparent now that the group will be split into a score of factions, none which will have any capacpty to accomplish the purposes which Senator Long had outlined. Judged impartially, the death of Sen ator Long, ought to enhance the Demo-

now and the next election decides to court the conservative vote in the country and in doing so offends the progressive segment of voters to which Mr. Roosevelt largely owes his 1932 election. To reiterate, it is possible, of course, that Mr. Roosevelt or his party ; advisers may make mistakes which will throw the whole party machine our of gear, but they are not now in evidence. The reason the passing of Huey Long is important from the political standpoint is pictured most reliably in the history of third party movements. While it is obvious that Senator lx>ng could never have been elected Presi- ■ dent —and I believe he was too smart a politician to think that he could have been successful—there was the danger from the Roosevelt standpoint that he could alienate some part of the vote which elected Mr. Roosevelt in 1932. If he had been able to do this, it is certain that Republican chances would have been enhanced because the Republican vote would have remained .solidly behind the Republican candidate. Some years,ago, Robert M, La Follette. then a senator from Wisconsin, ran for the Presidency on a third party ticket He polled about five million votes. This happened at a tin e when the country was reasonably prosperous. Surely, the economic conditions were* of a character that bred less discontent than those of this depression era. So, astute political observers tell me that it takes little stretch of the imagination to conceive of a radical ; party, led by a~man of the dynamic, characteristics of Huey Long, being able to poll as many as ten million votes throughout the country despite the difficullr : es that always face the organization of a new political party. Whatever criticism may have been or may be voiced of the late senator from Louisiana, everywhere one goes among political leaders, he obtains the same expression of opinion respecting the senator’s ability. He had 9 smart mind, one that grasped situations, particularly in politics, with great speed and he was always ready at a moment’s notice to capitalize on those situations. Thus, if Mr. Long had lived, it is ea»y to imagine what he would have done in case the New Deal leaders made mistakes. He would have I hopped on those mistakes with the aridity of a cat on a mouse; he would ' hare magnified them in his speeches to his following and by these act* be would have aided and abetted the Republican opposition. So, while the national capital was startled by Senator Long’s death and appalled at the manner of his going. It is not a violation of any confidence to say that New Deal politicians are resting easier; They enjoyed Huey, the man, but they recognized in him an adversary decidedly dangerous to their cause. • • • Now, as to other factors Involved, factors that might withdraw support

defeat The real effect and probably the only effect that movement will have will be to force the Roosevelt leaders to realign their strength in some states. Mr. Hearst with the great power of his string of newspapers behind. him, has yet to succeed In creating a potent political group. He attempted It when the late Warren Harding of Ohio was the Republican nominee and James M. Cox of the same state was put forward by the Democrats. It was my good fortune to be assigned as a correspondent to the convention of Mr. Hearst’s new party. It was evident then as it later was proved by the votes that the enthusiastic delegates to that convention repre-

seated a following so small as to be utterly negligible. Even with the astute advice of Bainbridge Colby, little more will come out of the current movement Then, those who have their eyes on the facts instead of on the ballyhoo will promptly discount the talk about Democratic defection when they stop to consider some other things that are taking place. For example, there have been no more bitter dissents from New Deal policies than Senator Carter Glass of Virginia and Senator Thomas P. Gore of Oklahoma have voiced. Mr. Glass lately has engaged In rites of burying the hatchet to the extent that he is not going to run for re-election in Virginia as anything but a' Democrat. Out in Oklahoma, Senator Gore has been making speeches that sound strangely as though he is almost friendly with the administration. He has been telling his audiences that he has stood with the President on many votes in the senate, sometimes when his vote was badly needed. Though It becomes apparent that while neither Senator Glass not Senator Gore is enthusiastic about New Deal policies, neither of them is going to desert the Democratic party. And, so It is in any number of other cases. They may not speak glowingly of President Roosevelt in their own campaigns for re-election but as ’candidates they are not going to fight him openly. • • • “Big Jim” Farley, the master New I Deal politician, successfuly avoided

state announced recently that there would be no special election to choose a representative at large to till a vacancy. The Ohio governor said it would cost too much money to hold a special election, his announcement being made at the W'hite House just after President Roosevelt had agreed to allot 520.000.000 in public works funds for Ohio use. But the astute Mr. Farley is not going to be able to. avoid a test on New Deal issues in Kentucky. The situation In that state is that a Democrat of President Roosevelt’s choice and who is supporting the New Deal from start to finish Is running for governor against a hard-boiled and conservative Republican. The election will be the first week in November and thus a state-wide vote can be expected to measure the RoOsevelt strength. Be, cause of this, all of the maneuvers are being closely watched and the. battle of those ballots obviously will be bitter. The Kentucky test takes on additional significance and Importance because of something that happened in choosing the Democratic nominee. The Kentucky fight is to determine whether Lieut. Gov. A. B. Chandler, the Democrat, or former Representative King Swope, the Republican, will run the state. Governor Laffoon apparently wanted to have the Democratic nominee selected by the old convention method but the Roosevelt supporters preferred a primary. Consequently, Senator Barkley of Kentucky, a devout Roosevelt • follower in the senate, was sent into his home state to see that the primary plan was made operative. The Democratic state committee which was empowered to choose the method of selecting the candidate was determined to have a convention and it was after this determination became known that Mr. Roosevelt participated In dictating the course the party should follow. Senator Barkley arrived in his home state bearing a letter signed “Franklin D. Roosevelt” urging the primary, and while Governor Laffoon was out of the state attempting to convince national leaders that his candidate for the Dem.ocratic nomination was the right one. Lieutenant Governor Chandler called a special session of the state legislature and put through a law compelling the selection of the candidate by fie primary. Mr. Chandler won the nomination in th” run-off although Thomas S. Rhea had polled more votes in the original primary than did Mr. Chandler. So it is apparent beyond a doubt that Mr Roosevelt recognizes the necessity for electing a Democrat, and New Deal supporters in Kentucky say that he is prepared to battle to the last ditch to accomplish it. Nevertheless, the fur will fly in Kentucky In November. It cannot be avoided. If the administration wins, undoubtedly New Dea) stock will be enhanced In value. But, if the Republican nominee should win the Kentucky test, the whole New Deal must be prepared to wear an unusual black eye. 0 Western Newspaper Union.

Old-Time Texas LongKorns Rank With Game Animals Nearly ,100 old-time Texas longhorns—a type of cattle now almost extinct—are enjoying federal protection along with more than i',ooo biggame anlmals on the Wichita game preserve In southwestern Oklahoma, reports the United States biological survey. The longhorns are being preserved as an interesting type of live stock that played an important part in early western life. A recent census showed the 61,000acre refuge was home also to 299 buffalo, 222 elk. and about 500 Virginia deer and 200 wild turkeys. 1 t Forest service and biological survey experts counted the buffalo and longhorns by driving them through a pasture gate. The elk were tallied by a paijty covering the entire big-game pasture in a single day, by automobile and on foot The deer count was based on observations and examination of tracks after a rain.
