Favors Finn Loan But Not Increase In Bank’s Capital

/V o ice in Foreign Pol* icy Despite Bank Posi­tion as ^Subordinate' Governm ent Agency.

W ashington, Feb. 27.— (A P )— Although favoring a $20,000,000 loan to Fin land, Representative F ish (R .. N . Y .) , objected in the House to­day to providing s $100,000,- (KM) increase in Exp o rt-Im ­port bank capital in order to make it possible. He argued that the $80,000,000 d iffe r­ence between the increase and the propos^ F in n ish loan would perm it the bank to lend to nations other than Finland and thus give it a voice in foreign policy de-' sp ite it s position as a "sub o r­dinate” agency of the govern­ment.

"I’m not Bure.’’ he toM the Houae, "that the Ameri<!an people want Congresa to aurrender ita powera and delegate to a auUbidlnate agen­cy the authority to make indiacrim. inate loana to foreign governments and poialbly tnvolve ua in war."

See Paaeaga la Hooae Administration leaders predicted

a bill to ^ve tha bank the 8100,- 000,000 Increase—already approved by the Senate—would win Houae passage by tbe end of today’s aes- Sion. WlUi the Increase the bank ewdd make the Ftnnloh lean, but tba maosurs as wrltton by tba Son­ata wouM net require It to do ao.

Jeaoa Jonas, F td tral loon admin­istrator, has strongly Indicatad the loan would go through. I t woUM raise to |80jl00,000 the amount berr.-wed by Ftnload from thb bank, a $10,000,080 Oiedlt having been axtsBdad pravloualy.

Fioh said ha would piWor to vote dlreeUy on the queaUon of a FlnnUh loan. laitamBa the P u f t i? ' mehtoiy Mtuatien would at* pot- mR that ha ptanaad to pwpeaa aa emendmant to tho Bnevt-lliHMirt Bank bOI roqutoing apodllcally that $20,000,000 be loaned tha Finns.

Brussels, Feb. 27— ArOllery fire of Increased Intenrtty waa re­ported to be ahaking houses of ths frontier villages of neuUal little Luaembourg today while heavy German troop movements were sighted across the Moselle (Mosel) river.

Unusually heavy road and rail traffic was visible across the river. A steady stream of cavalry, cycl­ists, Infantry, ammunition and food columns have been noticeable since Saturday.

Report TwoVessels Sunk

Hew London. Feb. 17—Tbe ap­proaching retirement from the faculty of' Oonnectlcut OoUege of Dean Irene Nye find Dr. John E!d- wln Wells, both of whom were teachers o f ths first class to grad' uate from the, college, was an nounced by President Katharine Blunt at this rooming’s service in Harkneas Chapel.

Dean Nye and Dr. Wells will conclude their work at the oollege at'the clone of the current oollege year.. Dean Nye has been a mem- br of the faculty since 1915, the year In which the college opened, and Dr. Wells since 1917.

Impreaelve Tribute : The loss to the college in the re­

tirement of two of lU most dis­tinguished scholars and most ef­fective teachers, waa expressed by the president In a brief but Im­pressive tribute this morning. Bhe called to the attention of the stu­dents the fact that Dean Nye has been at Connecticut College since its first year and that her life has been knit from tbe beginning Into the life of the college. She reminded them that the scholarly work of Dr. Weils has won recog­nition the world over, hla name be­ing as well known at the British museum, for example, as In this region.

"As both students and alumnae attest,” said President Blunt, "Dean Nye and Dr. Wells have made extraordinary contributions to the college all through their terms of service, as teachers, as administrative officers, and as scholars."

Servloe AppreciatedAppreciation of the years of

devoted service of these Hist two of the Institution's full profeissors to reach the retirement age was also expressed by tbe college board of trustees In recently adopted resolutions.

Of Dr. Wells the trustees stated: "His work has been of the great­est value, not only for tbe fine quality of the teaching In his own department of English, to which he has given constant thought and devotion, but also for what he has done to make Connecticut Col­lege known and respected In the world of scholarship, by research In hla special field and by his Im' portant bibliographical publlca tiona, now quite indlspeiuuible In every serious library."

The resolution concerning Dean Nye read; “ Aa head of her own department where she has done so much to awaken and keep alive in the students an appreciation of the classics, as our much loved Dean and as chairman of the Presiden­tial committee which so suocesa- fuUy carried the oollege through tbe Interregnum between two praridents, her work has been of the greatest value to the Institu­tion which meaiw so much to us all."

A total of 128,244.40 waa-eoneet- ed at th< local Umporary office of the Motor Vehicle Department at the 8UU Armory In six days. Dur­ing tbe f lw three days the office waa opened there were 1228 can registered. Of this number 72* were registered on February 22, a holi­day.

"The conversations have been very helpful.

Beyond that, he declined to com­ment, except to remind questioners

The Furtirer,.lt was .generally believed, would propoee no peace plan to President Itoosevrtt's en­voy who Is on a fact-flnding tour of Europeaa Metals.

From the insiatence of recently inspired press artictea that non- bcUigerenU mainUln compleU neuM ity rather than mere offi­cial neutrality, the opinion was advanced that Hitler and the American undersecretary of state would discuss the preaervaUon of "more complete neutrality" by the United .SUtes.

Wants More Neutral Stand The view was expressed in in­

formed quarters that Germany would Insist upon such "more tomplete neutrality" before there could be any Improvement In re- lationa between the Reich and the United SUtes.

In November, 1986, the ambaa- aadors of . both nations were called home, presumably to report on conditions arising from the Inten- sUed Nasi antl-Jewish qmpaign of that time. \

Subsequently, Hugh R. Wilson, ths American ambassador, resign­ed his post and took up' specif duUea with the SUte Departments There has been no indication that a successor would be appointed.

Fascist newspapers, which at first hail given scanty notice to Welica' mission here, carried front­page articles today on his "most cordial" conversations with Pre­mier Mussolini and Count Ciano. They printed an Italian communi­que on the meeting with Mussolini without giving any inkling of the matters discussed, however.

Welles and Ambaaaador Phlltipe appeared well pleased with results of their hour’s meeting with n Duce.

While Welles closely guarded the reeulte, he waa believed to have re­viewed with the Italian leaders Europe’s main political and eco' nomic problems and the poasIbUI' ties of their, settlement as the basis oi a lusting peace.,

Ohio Elections Seen St|*aws

'olitiral Observers Ex­pect Voling to Show New Deal Popularity*Columbus, O., Feb. 27.—(F)—

Special congressional elections in two Ohio districts today served as "straws in the wind" for the na­tion’s political observers seeking to gauge New Deal popularity.

Light voting was anticipated despite forecasts of warmer weather in the six-county 17th District and the three-county 22nd where successors to two congress­men who died in office were chos­en.

In the 17th District Byron B. Asbbrook, Democratic Johnstown hanker, opposed J. Harry McGreg­or, of Coshocton, Republican floor leader in the Ohio House of Repre­sentatives, fpr the post vacated by the death Of .eshbrook'a uncle. Rep. William A. Ashbrook.

Widow Seeks Seat Mrs. Frances Payne Bolton, so­

cially prominent Cleveland Repub­lican and widow of Rep. Chester C. Bolton, sought election to her husband’s imexpired term in the 22nd District over Anthony J. Eleger, of Parma, former Demo­cratic congrressman.

Ashbrook openly favored "the aocial and economic program of tbe New Deal” and predicted that he would be elected by a 4,000 to 6,000 margin. The district—com­prising Knox, Richland, Delaware. Ashland, Licking and Coshocton counties—has not been represent­ed by a Republican since 1930.

t McGregor’a supporters based their hopes on a Republican vote

SO per cent greater than the Democratic vote in the special primary three weeks ago. Demo­crats polled nearly 60 per cent heavier vote than tbe opposition party in the 1938 general primary.

Half Popalatlon Roral Secretairy of State Elarl Griffith

Evacuation Day'Parade Marshal Finds Steed

Boston, Feb. 27—(F»—Gat­ing in rapture at Old Tom, a 2,060-po:ind horse, 270-pound Edward J. McCormack, mar­shal of South Boston’s Evacua tlon Day parade, trumpeted ttuit his search for a steed to carry him in the March 16 procession had been capped with triumph.

There was no rapture In Old Tom’s eyes aifter the try­out, however. He Just looked more tired than usual after a day of hauling ashes, and he also looked extremely hairy.

"That’s the horse for me, whether he likes It or not.” cried McCJormack, who will lead the parade commemorat­ing the evacuation of Boston by the British in 1776. “Give him a shave and a haircut and be sure to bring a ladder with him. So I'll be able to climb aboard.”

Concord, N, H., 'Feb, 27.—(FV—New Hampshire’s flrst-ln-the-na- tton Democratic presidential pri­mary on March 12 shaped up defin­itely today as President Roosevelt against the field, with the term standing out as the issue.

The battle lines were drawn by the action of Robert C. Murchle. chairman of. the Democratic State Committee, in filing a complete slate of delegates pledged to Presi­dent Rooeevelt, and by the subse­quent refusal of several prominent Democrats to go along with the party organization. dates th^msel

Three Dernocrattc Senators—Her­ring of Iowa. Brown of Michigan, and Minton of Indiana—said today that the Europeaa war might moke it necessary for President Roose­velt to seek a third term. .

"II' the President should run, he would lie renominated and re-elect­ed." Herring told reporters. “It would take a new man at least two

, years to leam as much as he has chief I learned about foreign affairs.”

He expressed the opinion that there should be a cessation of “pressure” on the President to make a third term atatement.

"I don

be a candidate,” Minton declared, "there would be a bitter Intra­party row over the nomination.

"If he la going to be a candidate, he should wait a while longer be- fo're speaking because of the sit­uation In Europe. j

‘Hamburger Mary’ Dies; Aided Actors

Roosevelt slate.Three candidates have entered as

pledged to Postmaster General James A. Farley, and one under the banners of Vice President John N. Garner, but the bulk of the opposi­tion thus far has come from three unpledged candidates, all o f them BcUve In New Hampshire politics.

They ai'e Robert H. Sanderson, minority leader of the New Hamp­shire House last year, State Tax Commissioner John G. Marston, and State Liquor Commissioner John S. Hurley.

Opposes Third TermSanderson, asserting that Presi­

dent R*sevelt had done a "grand Job’’ and had started "many neces­sary reforms." said, nevertheless, that he was ' ‘serioiisly opposed to a third term," and added:

"'There must be many Demo­crats In New Hampshire who would prefer to send delegates to the convention who will be free to listen to the discussions, hear the whole story, and then act in a way which would seem to be for the beat Interests of the Democratic party.”

Hurley, too, has expressed "un­alterable opposition” to a third term.

"SituaUoa Indloates Boosevelt”Murchle, on the other band, de­

clared that "the present sUuatlon, both nationally and international­ly, more or leas Indicates tbe can­didacy of President Roosevelt. He is in close touch with affairs, both at borne and abroad, and in my opinion he understands conditions better than it is possible for any other man to understand them.” .

Neither Farley nor Garner of­ficially entered the New Hamp­shire primary.

Delegates eleqted ax pledged, under state law, must stick with their candidates until released. Therefore, at least five delegates will go to the convention pledged to President Roosevelt, inasmuch as there are only seven candidates In tho field who are not pledged to him.

Pledged to Support Old Age Pension Law

Boston, Feb. 27—(F)— A slate of four candidates (or delegate-at- torge to the Republican National Convention, pledged ,to support repeal of the social security act and substitution of a national old age pension law, has been filed in Massachusetts by fhe president of National Old Age Pensions, Ine.

Tbe pension leader, William H. McMastem of Cambridge, who ran (or the RepublicaiB nomination for governor in. 1988. and who cam­paigned for the governorship on the Union' ticket in 1986, said ths group intended to file elmltor stotee in 18 of the 16 Bay State congressional districts.

Washington, Feb. 27.—(F)— T)\t House Agriculture Committee pro- I'osetl today a 8350,000,0(KI expan­sion of the larm'tenant program, deefarlng It could beteccompUshecl by mortgage insurance without ad- 'd.t.onal drain on, the Federal treas­ury.

The committee. In recommending the plan to the House, recalled that vinder the original 193” law per- ndttlng direct loans, coUrctions have (Ar exceeded payments due and delinquencies have been n'egll- glble.

But the members said that only 10,000 loans lo tenants to buy farms rotdd ho made under the prebent law, which authorizes a re­volving fimd of not more than 800,- 000.000 annually.

Expands Program .AnUiorised "This bill." the committee said,

"substantially expands the pro- ^ m now authorized without any resulting drain on the Tre.lsury. This result Is accomplished by authorizing a system of mortgage Insutance by which' private funds would be made nvsilabic to finance farm owneruhip and refinance In- ilebtednesH of prearnt owners."

The measure would create a re­volving fund which would Increase from 850.000.000 for the first year to 8200,000,00 three yeara later.

Modeled after the National Housing Art, the bill would pro­vide for amortization at three per I -nt over a 40-year period, plus a one per cent service charge to offset administrative expenses and to provide a fund for posalbis loss­es. No loans could be made un­less previously approved by coun­ty agriculture committees.

Senate Passed Similar BID.The Senate passed a almilar bill

laat year.The House recently rejected an

administration recommendation that 825.000,000—half the usual amount—to appropriated for farm teneuiCy tn the flsoal year starting next July 1.

Some senators have predicted that the 825,000,000 item—along with several other larger ones— would be restored to the farm ap­propriation bill when it comes be­fore the Senate.' Secretary Wallace, however, baa

made a specific recommendation only for farm parity payments or their equivalent. For several years Congress has appropriated 8225,000,000 for the payments, but informed sources have said that he would to. satisfied this year with slightly more than 8100.000,000. The payments are designed to lift farm purcHaaing power to pre World war levels.

Washington, Fsb. 27. — (F) — t "Such a msi>sag> Woodrow Wilson’s rejection o f a ’ O en e^ Penhing plan which Gen. John J. Pershing thought would hasten the and of the World war was disclosed today by tt'S State Department’s publica­tion of a letter from tbe w a^m e

of Sti

very 'much, it is the haa undertaken to political os well oa 1 way.

"I am;Blear that It would be 1 itate queatlott (or me to

The letter, found among the con -' fon cb^ n ce of tto Suprem fldentlal papers given the State De- ! “ it® *»parlment by Lansing's family, con­cerned a propotol ity Pershing on Aug. 30, 1918, ftlr slmultaneoua military and diplomatic offensives on all fronts as a final aledge- haminer blow to the weakening Germans.

(Another of the Lansing papers published recently diseloato, how­ever, thst Pershing opposed the Arnitsllce two months later because he want'd the Allies to push on to "complete victory" In order to as­sure permanent peace.)

At Pershing’s request, the diplo­matic liaison officer with the Su­preme Wsr Council wrote to Presi­dent Wilson:

"He (Pershing) la'lleves that the successful advance of the Allies on the western front will continue and while he does not consider that thq Germans are yet beaten, he is sat­isfied that the morale of their troope is bad.

"Under these circumstances, he thinks that united action should be taken to bring about the end of the war If possible before next year."

Under the Pershing plan Presi­dent Wlleon would:

1. Urge the Allies to attack alm- uttuneo'isly on the Italian front, at Saloniki, and In Mesopotamia If possible.

2. "Address words of encourage­ment to that section of the Ktiasion public which ia pro-Aliy."

3. Intimate to Austria-Hungary, Bulgaria and Turkey (Germany’s

Hies) "that the time has come for

military theaters of the war; it to squally clear to ma 1 events, not any suggssttoqa fvp us, will determine the oettoa Bulgaria and Tiirkey.

The council wcm the redplenta of a communication at a previous meeting from the Rockville liquor dealers through Attorney Donald C. Fisk In which the proposed or- dtosaes waa sst forth. At th# last nMetjng of tb* Council Attorney Flak spoke at length explaining • the details of the proposM ordi­nance.

At th* present time any one de­siring to enter the liquor business must flHt secuM approval of ths lociation from the (JIty (Jounell and 2m one occasion recently the Coun­cil withheld approval following a protest from the residents fn the vicinity of the proposed location. Some of the membeM of the Coun­cil felt that the proposed ordinance would taka this authority away, but Mr. Flak has since pointed out that the Council could atlll retain lU^ authority to approve such ptaeaa if they ao desired.

The proposed ordinance pro­hibits the opening of another out­let within a radltu of 1800 feet from the place already esUblUhed.It would also provide that If a place now occupied by a liquor business should close it muat ba reoccupied and operating within 30 days by a place of aimllar na­ture, in order not to lo*a,th* apf proval as a alte, with a time limit to b* set by the Council.

The commission Justified the In­creased cost by declaring tho new program would give pupils and productive power, buying power, consuming power.

The commission recommended that colleges and other agencies of advanced occupational training should give preference "to voca­tions in which those trained will bs. able to earn largest incomes and to Helds where Increased output will be of greatest social Importance.”

The educators found an acute shortage of skilled workers In many industries, and declared that the greatest numbers of unemploy­ed at present are unskilled. There­fore, they suggested that the best Insurance of continuous employ­ment appears to be preparation for a semi-skilled or highly skilled oc­cupation.

When the colon seqms partli IrrlUhle It to often a good plan to use only ths cooked vegetables, avoiding the raw salad variety, and taking these cooked ones In a pursed form. Pureeing will break up the vegetable fiber and provide the colon with a soft, smooth bulk, which to often soothing. If there has been considerable trou ble with gas, sUying away from mixtures of starches and sugars for a time, and cutting down on the use of starches In general, will help to cut down on the gas for. matlon.

In addition to the vegetables the patient may take meat, soupa Melba Toast, eggs, and perhaps apple sauce or stewed dried fruit.

When the abdominal unrest is severe It to usually a good plan to fast for a few days, taking noth ing but water, or using feedings of tomato Juice, taking eight ounces of the Juice every two hours. The fast gives the Irritated colon chance to rest and recover.

During a crisis period the pa- tlent should avoid long automo-|,i bile rides, strenuous exercise, late hours, emotional excitement and so on. Rest and relaxation are capable of doing a great deal of good.

The enema is of great value In these cases, the water In the ene­ma being used as hot as It can ne borne. The enema may be used without fear for several days If necessary and to very helpful In that It keeps the colon clean with­out Irritating It.

During periods of constipation the patient may try the oil reten­tion enema, qr may try faking ag­ar agar. The agar provides the material for a soft, large stool and has the virtue ot being non-lrri- tatlng.

The combination of heat, a wise' -ly selected diet, rest, and the ene­ma Is usually sufficient to con­vince the patient the colitis la re- llevable. The patient can not be promised'a quick cure, as-often a long period of treatment to needed before recovery to well established.

CHAPTER VIEntering the foyer, Ann darted

a glance at the bench which faced the Blaahfleld palntlnff. It was' unoccupied. She went to the read­ing room and selected a magaxlne. About to sit down where she could keep an eye on the painting and bench, she suddenly dropped the noagasine. A young man was walking, across the foyer with a pUe of books under his arm. With storing eyes, Ann watched him dump the books on the etiolation desk and turn away.

There was nothing strange In this procedure. The astounding, unbelievable thing was that he wore a white gardenia and— he was the selfsame young man whose window faced. Ann’s from across the alley.

Ann actually gasped. It couldn’t be. You met this sort of thing In fiction—coincidence, they called It —but not In real life. It simply couldn’t be—but It was.

Why these reports should con­flict with published statements of the German government to Indicat­ed in qimtotlons from German re­ports of restricted circulation. In these reports German economists complain that the official propa- gante publications are padded and misleading.

The German government Is credited with much wisdom In organlUng the food supply at. once on .a ration basis Instead of waiting two years, as In the World War. Yet while Germans went la­

has been .made for the flood ques­tion In the Spring which to a seri­ous problem. Would It not be a wraste of mOney to have these rearing pools washed about two mites dowm stream after the first Spring flood? Perhaps they can be built SO they can be token apart and stored somewhere during the flood stage of the brook.

And how many years does Mr. Uttle think it will take this plant to produce the first legal atsed trout to be released Into the stream ?

Then comes the question of add­ed expense. Will the wardenssUll be able to patrol the streams and stUl be able to check the fish­erman In and out? I don’t think so because they have more than enough to do at the present time.

Plans of this kind look good on paper but that’s been the trouble tight along. Too much theoryand nothing practical along these tines.’ The sooner the sportsmen real­ise these things and demand that something be done about them the sooner we will have better condi­tions for tho future generations to enjoy.

Garbo arrived In the sunny south with Dr. Gaylord Hauser, the Hollywood dietician and they re­mained close to the Palm Beach hostelry:' How they got around without undue fanfare Is some-

She got hastily to her feet. In turning her back on the etdishi man, she faced the foyer. Her eyesl grew perfectly round, 4n amazed exclamation came softly from her parted Ups. The foyer was aUvo with white gardenias. Backed by masculine or feminine lapels, they swarmed everywhere. To Ann s overwrought Imagination the gar- dratos seemed to float about in a disembodied fashion. The young

He watched her, puzzled.

Ann put out a finger and gln- irerly touched his gardenia. “ Where did you get It?” she ask­ed, sick with bumUtotlon. /

“ I went Into Ward’s drugstore on the corner for a pack of clga- rets—they’re having an opening— giving away gardenias—Isn’t that where you got yours?”

”No,’ ahe said blankly. “No. I bought mine.”

“That’s too bad. Fifty cents gone to the bow-wows.”

Thus did Prince David of toe Georgian Mdlvanls defend himself against charges of blonde Mae Murray, hto former wife and one­time screen star, that be seldom

to> had aided ta toe boy’s supportCalled as an advene \ritness by

Miss Murray’s attorney, Mdivani was still on the stand as court ad­journed late yesterday.

He said the last time he'sent funds to Koran, 13, their son, “was only 10 days ago."

Money for Son Not Refused “ I did not refuse to give my ex-

wlfe money for our son, but I re­fused It when she wanted it for herself.” he added.

Miss Murray, who testified she I once was worth millions but now Is l-dependent on friends for aid, is seeking $1,000 monthly from the prince so she can make a home for the boy, at present on an Albany. N. Y., farm. A New York court recently declined her plea\ for Koran’s custody, ruling that\toe could not proride a satisfactory home.

Mdivani was ta coqrt as she closed her testimony, but be seldom looked at her. Only once did he react to her testimony. He red­dened and seemed almoet ready. to leap to hto feet when she declared:

“As long as we were married, I supported him. He was my hus­band and I loved him and he was welconM to everything I had."

The actress’ dramatic manner was reminiscent of her days as a silent star as she told of her love for her son—a love she fears she Is losing because he cannot be with her.

Uoa Hugo L. Black, the flrst Su- |rxge^W Tt member appointed by

old today.Roosevelt, was 64 years

Not only in the Garden of Eden was the tree of Good and Evil but It is everywhere, there la no place or home so fair, no circumstance void of its presence. At every turn of life we find It; sometimes our eyes are holden and we do not rSTOgnlze it; lU leaves and fruit ara not always toe same. It to like the chameleon It takes color from its Inirroundtags and always shlxes forth attractively; Its Influence to very subtle. It entices. It looks like a thing to be desired. It to an evil, it^ u ses weakness shame, de­feat retaorse and death. It Is dark picture, but It to as old as ata. How shall we escape It? What can we do? We may turn temptation Into a blessing Instead of a curse.

God Intended toe tree o f tempta­tion- to be a mesas o f strengthen Ing the moral and spiritual forces of man. Just as repeated blows upon toe anvil streniraan and de­velop toe blacksmlto’s arm or toe syMematle exerctoe of too athlete hto muscular power, or toe prac­tise of any art or science perfects the student, so the constant re­sistance of temptation strengthens the whole moral and spiritual na­ture of man.

Temptation is an opportunity given to fit ourselves for toe high­est and noblest things o f this life and of the life which Is to come. Jesus was tempted, Init we aib likely to say. How easy for Him to resist. He was divine. Let 'us remember that He was toe "SON <ff Man” and that He was tempted as a man. Jesus had toe power of choice, every one has that God given power. Jesus was teippted in a strong wSy, not Just a flsettag sugglwtlon as when a though presents Itself then passes away but He was tempted la aU points as we afe. Satan umealed to the highest in our Lord’s nature, he desired to overcome toe divinity, toe spIrituM nature of CTujSt ,

Let us look at the sottlag. Jesus had been led o f toe Spirit into toe wilderness. He had been ta close communion with the “Father” He was #eak from fasting when toe evil one made his appearance and suggested that He v m k a miracle to benefit HlmselL Jesus spurned toe thought If he bad done as was suggested aiad disnged the stones into bread to sansfy Hto hunger He would have been turn­ing away from His Mtoslaa. The " 8<« o f Mafi” knows what it is to be tempted He sympathises with that soul/ who Is tempted to give

the hlgbest for toe leaser tomg.yielded to that form

of tem ^ tlon He never could have stood forth and declared to the world. ‘T am toe broad o f Ilfo.

Tho Devil then suggested Jesus east HImssif down He might prove too God’s protaetloa this tateniM to taspirs rash and spiritual pride, but to obey the power o f evil Is to take ouroolveo out o f toe care o f God. The promise is to those who commit their ways unto Him. It Is wrong to put oneself la a perilous place or to court danger and then to ex­pect protectioii. How oftsa men are tempted to go o g a l^ their better Judgment; hired the promise that then to no harm ta It It Is a (aloe security which Is only realised when it Is too late. Alas! Oouatleos souls have been defeated by tho no harm devU.

How pentoteat Is evil. Sataa suggested that Jesus foil down and erotship him, sad la return gala kingdoms and gtory, Jeans was not interested ta pomtloa or word- ly possessions sad power. He re­fused to worship at Its shrine. He would not bow down la the "House of Rlmmoa” Josns atfght have sold ’T -wlll coasider tUs offor by ac- ceottag it, I Shan he able to do my fellowmen a great service by toe institution o f goqd governmmit.' There to good, but Jesus’s type of good Is o f toe highest order. He refused to use His waadorfttl pow­er for adf. Ho a»da ao eeaeas

“The world la probably closer to disintegration now than all 'any time since the fall of the Roman empira,” be told the Yale chapter o f Phi Beta Kappa, national hon­orary scholaatlo fraternity, laat night.

He said current problems were not of a material but of a “ moral. Intellectual and opiritual” nature which could be solved, not by tech­nical skill or oclentlflc data, but "by wisdom and goodness.”

“ Aim Of Education''The achievement of these latter

qualities he called “ toe aim of edu­cation" and sold “studlee which do not bring us closer to this goal have no place ta a university."

Arguing for a unification of uni­versity curricula and a weeding out of "triviality, mediocrity and vocatlonollsm,” w . Hutchins sold:

“Today, though it la possible to get an e^ootlon ta on American university, a man would have to be so bright and would have to know so much to get It that he wouldn’t really need It. . . . Our university graduates have far more information and for leas un­derstanding than ta toe colonial period."

Coroner Decides On Inipiest Date

Boy Is Maker Of Fake Coins

Wps^Dartford Youth Is H eld\ for Trial in Federal Court.Hartford, Feb. 27—(FJ—A 16-

year-old West Hartford schoolboy, who has hod prsvious experience with the Federal Bureau of In­vestigation, awaited a Federal court trial today on a charge of rooking counterfeit coins ta toe In­dustrial arts shop of toe Junior high school he attended.

The boy, hto name withheld, was presented yesterday before U. 8. Commissioner William J. Wholean who released him in toe custody of bis father pending trial ta May.

William J. Gullmartin, secret service agent, said the boy admit­ted miaking at least four spurious dimes and that he had given one to a chum who purchased two candy bars with It In the school cafeteria where It was later discovered to be counterfeit.

Decides on Federal Actlea He was arrested by West Hart­

ford police early ta February and United Statea District Attorney Robert P, Butler decided toe seri­ousness of the cose warranted Federal court prosecution although Juveniles suspected of Federal o f­fenses usually are put' In toe cus­tody of atate authorities.

,The device used, for turning out toe spurious dimes was simple, Glillmartta explained, constoting merely of a strip o f soft metal, two blocks of wood, a irtoe and genuine dime.

The good coin was preosed against the soft metal, leaving a reverse impression in It, and toe “dimes” were then cut out of toe metal strip.

Gullmartin said that toe FBI questioned toe youth in 1938 ta connection with the writing of a threatening letter.

Los Angeles, Feb. 27.—(F^— Where was Mary Bates In the fall of 1935?

That question became an Issue ta the murder trial of Dr. George K. Dasey, Santa Monica physU-ian, as Defense Attorney Jerry Gleslcr attempted to prove that the charges were “ trumped up,"

Miss Bates testified early In the trial that she was In the employ of Dr. Dasey before his wife was found dead in a gas-filled garage.

But Giesler, showing her a let­ter Introduced by the prosecution from a former employer, dated In 1936, asserted yesterday that the date had been altered from 1937. The maid Insisted that if It had been changed, she had nothing to do with It.

Says Doctor Drank, Abnsl%e Miss Bates had testified for the

prosecution that Dr. Dasey was drunk and abusive during the months before Mrs. Dazey’s death Oct. 3, 1935,

She denied that she hod been 'told what to say" by Mrs. Walter Schwuchow, mother of Mrs. Dasey, and Frances Hansbury, a prosecution witness.

The defense colled James Bates, brother of Mary, who testified he came to California from Arkansas on 1 then sent money for hto sister to coma out. Bates woo not sure of the year he arrived.

Mrs. Edith Merrill, proprietor of a market employing Bates, said he started work there March 1, 1936.

Oenoveal, a realdent of B iw k- ivB. N. Y„ according to the Cor- vuu, beUeved to have been the •paiator of the'ear when the mla- hap occurred, waa reaponelble for the accident which waa cauaed by cacceaalve apeed and by the failure at the difver to keep the auto un- aer control. . . ,

C Taylor, President Roosevelti psrsoMl ambassador, to the Vatl' MB. to a simple ceremony today

chatted with him of the tlto^ when, aa Eugenio Cardinal Pa- oelU. the pontiff was Taylor'a guest to New York In 193(1.

The pope asked that Taylor con­vey bis heat wishes to the preal- tfent and people of the United States, saying he bad great admi­ration and affection for them, es- psclilly since he had been able to come In personal contact with them.

Taylor, first American' envoy to the Holy See since 1867, la to seek to coordinate peace efforts of the

. Vatican and the White Houae.He has opened offices In a hotel

to Rome, and said he had not de­cided when to proceed to the villa In'Florence, where he has been ex­pected to stay.

Bsceived With DlgnRy He aald he found the pope look­

ing "very well Indeed" and had been received With "great dignity and kiildness."

Vatican circles commented on the length of time the pope devot­ed to the audience, the two being alone >33 minutes and the entire ceremony occupying 43 minutes

Taylor presented the pope with a message from Mr. Rooacvelt, but there was no formal presenta­tion of credentials, or exchange of formal speeches, because Taylor has the extraordinary status of a personal representative of the American exec»itlve, rather than a minister from the nation.

Reaching the Vatican in an.au- . tomoblle sent for him by the pope,

Taylor was .conducted Immediate­ly to the pontiff and presented Mr. Rooaevelt's message.

The pope offered bis band, over which Taylor bowed deeply.

George V claaa, Churchill aeld. Tn addition BrlUln has three battle cruisers.

Britain's five new battleships are 35,000-ton craft each carrying ten 14-lnch guns and 18 guns of 5.28 Inch caliber, /They are de- algned to speed at above SO knots and are cap^ally armored against air attack. They carry no tor­pedo tubes.

Churchill’s announcement was the first official clue to the time these craft would bo put In serv­ice. They all were launched last year aa follows: King George V> Feb. 21; Prince o Wales, May 3; Duke of York, Sep t 16 and the JelUcoe and the Beatty, Nov. 11.

Figures Kept Secret Churchill gave these glimpees

Into Britain’s Naval affairs In In­troducing the Navy appropriation bill In Commons The flgiires are kept secret even from the M. P.'s, who are asked merely to vote a £100 token appropriation, without knowing how much, actual money It represents.

Churchill simply asked the House for "a few men, aome ships and a little money."

In connection with the blockade situation Churchill aald:

" If we had not got at the pres­ent time an unquestioned superior­ity In battleships, the German heavy cruisers would come out Into the Atlantic ocean nnd with­out fear of being brought to ac­count would be able to obstruct If not arrest the' whole of the enor­mous trade without which we could not live.

"Happily, we have tar greater strength In capital ships than the enemy nnd If at any time they breal out as they may always do we are always ready to meet them ^ th milch larger forces and b.lng them to battle and destroy them." \

Oenuwr Freighter Captured Before Churchill fa5?ed Com­

mons a Britla)i warshl|l was re­ported to havh capt^ed the Ger­man freighter Wah^ene, 4,707 tons, foiling an attempt to run the British blockad^rom Vigo, Rpnin, and preventing' the, ship from be­ing scuttled./ , \

The m ild e r of ecbnomlc war­fare, Hugh Cross, Msured Com­mons there were no serious loop­holes In the Allied blockade, which permit shipment of United States and other neutral goods to Ger­many.

A check Is being considered, however, on shipments from the United States to Vladivostok, So­viet Pacific port, because of in­creased trade In that direction, he said.

Trade with Russia brought an Implied rebuke to the United States from Laborite William Leach In the House of (Tommons. He asked whether It did not show "that America prefers mammon to democracy."

The question came at the end of an exchange In which Cross said the government was considering a check on shipments through Vladi­vostok, Soviet Far’ Eastern port, and it stirred members to laughter.

United States Not ApproachedCross replied that he had not ap­

proached the United States for as­surances that materials were being resold to Germany because "it must be remembered that the U. S. A. Is a neutral country."

Thla very real picture of Britain at war was given to Commons on a day of unusual air activity In which British pursuit planes shot down two raiding German bombers on the east coast, British bombing p>lanes flew over Berlin and the Baltic and German bombing planes flew over Paris—without dropping bombs.

In addition large Nazi troop movements were reported along the Luxembourg frontier and artillery firs waa reported heard there.

Churchill announced nearly 2,000 British naerchantmen now are arm, ed defenalvely with cannon.

"We have lost 63,000 tons of war­ships, or about half the losses of the first six months of the last war," Churchill said.

The five new battleships, he said, are "capable of standing up to air bombardment and are far better adapted to underwater exploslona than anything we have today."

Apart from the aircraft carrier Courageous, Royal Oak, Nelaon and Barham, no other large wnr- ahlps had been a\mk or damaged alnce the outbreak of the war or during the difficult winter months, Churchill asserted. The Courageous was torpedoed and sunk Sept. 18 with the loss of 815 lives.

Churchill placed the net loss of British merchant shipping at less than 200,000 tona out of a 21,000.- 000 to ta l.. He compared the figure with that of 45(),000 tons lost In "single deadly month of April, 1917.”

Each month has shown a steady Improvement in shipping, ho said, with the nB,vy convoying Into Brit. Uh harbors In January—"In the teeth of U-boats, mines and winter gales and fogs" — considerably more than four-fifths the peace time average of the three preced­ing years.

(JTtucchiira statement accom­panied the Introduction of the Navy appropriation bill.

He also announced that two Ger­man submarines almost certainly had been sunk within the lost two days and predicted an Increase In, U-boat building.

By the end of 1939 the Germans bad lost at least half their U- boats, namely 35, Churchill said, and he doubted whether even ten fresh U-boats went Into action during the. first four months of the war. •»

"With th^ passage of summer the new building of U-boatAi will increasingly come Into play and we expect to meet these with our very large new buildings of crafts especially adapted to their de- atnictlon," Cliurchlll said.

He told the Hou.se that "w * ace our way to mastering" the mag­netic mine "although mechanically It Is very nicely made."

(Jhurchlll asked the Houae for “a few men, aome ships and a lit­tle money"—the Admiralty's way of asking tor Its appropriation, which must be secret under the war-time ikgulationa. The 0>m- mona la being aaked to pass a £100 token appropriation, and will not know until after the war Just how much money It really represents.

Churchill said It was physically Impossible to make exact ' esti­mates, and "there Is no need to tell the enemy~more than la good for him."

Two Raiding German Planet Shot Dtncn

London, Feb. 27—(JP)— Tha Air Mlnlatry announced today . that two raiding German planes had been shot down off Britain’s coasts as the German Air Force appar­ently resumed Its wldespresdlng coastal raiding.

One of the raiders, n Hetnkel bomber, waa downed by a patrol of the Royal Air Force fighter command off the mouth of the Firth of Forth shortly before p. m. (7 a. m„ s A t ) .

That waterway, leading to city of Edinburgh nnd . the Roaytb Naval baas, has been a frequent target for German raids.

The air ministry communique aald:

its Finance Committee took testi­mony from Secretary Wallace on the administration's reciprocal trade program, which the House approved last week and which may furnish one of the big'Senate bat­tles this session.

Wallace aald the program would provide a "valuable foundation stone for the' reconstruction of world traile In the future.” At the same time, under questioning, he warned against trying to force belligerents In Europe's war to couple farm aupply purchases with buying of military supplies. This, he said, would result In economic retaliation when peace Is estab­lished.

Supply Measure Cut.The House Appropriations Com­

mittee completed work on a $203,472,567 supply measure for the War Department’s civil func­tions for the fiscal year beginning June 1. The total of measure, which the House may take up to­morrow, waa about $16,609,000 loss than President Roosevelt’s budget recommendations. Chief budget Items not Included In the legUIation were $15,000,000 to start a third M t of Panama Canal locks and $1,000,000 for a harbor project a t Wake Island.

The Senate decided to recess un­til Thursday after approving yes­terday a $107,079,000 appropria­tion bill tor the State, Commerce and Justice Departments. Ths to­tal waa i|146,660 less than the House figure and represented an aggregate reduction of $2,585,010 below the Prfsident's budget.

The House also passed an appro­priation bill yesterday, voting $90.- 069,139 for various deficiency funda. Included ynm $60,000,000 for additional farm benefit pay menta. The bUl's total was $4.020,. 704 below the budget estimate.

Vote Follows Critleisai The vote followed lengthy critic­

ism by RepubUesns of questions to be ssked to the 1940 census. The Minority party tried unsucceasfully to atop a $5,000,000 for a census of housing.

The census debate was touched off by Representative. Taber (R N. T .), who said that "unless Con­gress Mops these Inquisitorial prae- tlcas this country la to a bad way.’’

Representative Miller. ( R Conn.) contended that proposed questions were “Illegal.” He ob­jected particularly to one which requires citizens to tell census takers their Income.

Others complained about ques­tions concerning mortgages, totsr- eat on loans, and whether families share their hatha with others.

The demand for thla informa­tion," ahouted Taber, "comes from the bureaucrats who beUsve to regimentation and who have no regard for the rights or ths money of the American pMple.**

These positions are in the Mon- nerhelm line southeast and east of Vllpurl, and have been men­tioned In previous Finnish com­muniques aa scenes of flercs com­bat.

T he enemy suffered heavy cas­ualties, the fighting continues,'* the communique. said, but did not mention whether the Russians bad advanced or been repulsed.

"OUr troops captured large luantitles of Infantry arms and lestroyed 18 tanks,” the com­

munique said of this action.At the extreme opposite end of

the- Mannerheim line, a t Talpale on the short of Lake Ladoga, the Finns "again repelled a powerful engmy attack," said the communi­que, "hurling the enemy back to his starting positions.'’

The Finns announced a large Russian offensive against Taipsle last week as ths tovadena attempt­ed to turn this eastern flank oC the Mannerheim defenses.«

The communique Mid that two tanka were destroyed to the flght- Ing S t Petsamo.

The Finns announced that they had shot down 17 Russian planes during yesterday's flghUng-—an unusually large claim for one day. Three civilians were klUed and a few wounded to Russian raids, the Finns said.

Tha communique aald the de­fenders destroyed thrM tanks and two armored cars northaaat of Lake Ladoga and Mptured a large amount of booty near Kuhmo, fur­ther north.

This booty, reported taken to the Mpturing o f a Ruasiaa strong­hold on Sunday, w m Ustod aa tor eluding two tanks, flve machine guns, w sub-automatic riflea.

A Finnish officer explained the FinM were defending and then gradually withdrawing along the Karelian Isthmus whUe ekoettog a heavy toll on advancing troops. The retreat was to conserve man­power, he said.

The withdrawals Indicated the Finns were retreailng deeper Into the Karelian Uthmua "bottleneck" between Vllpurl and Lake Ladoga. Thla wUi shrink the Karelian isthmua front from approximately 68 miles to 50 miles, to the tevan- tage of the smaller Finnish forces.

Should the Russians smash through the bottleneck defense, they might be able to fan out through a greater part of south­eastern Finland.

At the same time, the Finns shortened and tightened their Isthmiui defenses In front of the deserted city of Vllpurl for a des­perate stand against the Russian advance. Latest Finnish reports placed the Russians about 7 1-2 miles from the city.

(The Russians said the Finns had attempted a •, counterattack on the Isthumus, but had .been repuls­ed with the "heavy losses." Five Finnish tanks were reported dam­aged and three captured by the Russians.)

Norwegians a t Klrkenes reported the first Finnish planes seen In the Petsamo region alnce the war started were engaging the Rus­sians to intense combat, while the Red Army fought against Finnish ground defenses.

(The Russian communique said 19 Finnish planes were shot down yesterday, but did not give de­tails.)

Manchester sends into the fray a team that hM compiled an offen­sive average of only 28.78 points per game and a tlefenslve record of 27.89 points per game in split­ting even In 18 starts, while Baa- sick comes up to this test with an average of 47!63 polnta per game offensively as compared to 21.44 for its opponents.

The Bridgeport Tlmes-Jltar has this to say of Mancheater'a rival: “Led by CHpuIn Joe Vanciain, the star o f lart year's tournament, Baasick will demonstrate the plan­ned attack. It la one of the smooth­est teams around In working the ball up the floor and under the bMket.

"Whlla Vanclato and Jimmy Phelan are capable of taking set shots from well out, It is the lay­up attack from cloae in that has accounted for most of Basslck'a points. Joe Oslai, center, has the keltht to handle pivot paaaea, the advantage of ahoottog left-handed to rack up many a point from un­der the basket, and the ability to take (he ball off the backboard.

A few stand ner vously In the corridor or lobby Others just sit In the dining room and continue the conversation. The little officer just sits there, a tired, perhape contemptuous, smile on his face.
