 Larry Williams, editor and pub- fisher, has met his second stum- bling block. and 1t has spell ed the end of his journalistic ca- reer.

 When the newcomer outgrew the cry-baby age, the Thornapple Street News began again. Circu- lation mounted from 100 to 1000. Two extra pages had to be added for advertisers. Business became so good Larry and his staff of eleven reporters had to sit up half tho night to keep the books! straight. This meant the school books didn't get their deserved attention. Again Mrs Williams stepped in, and the Thornapple Street News said thirty" for the last time.

GERMANY WILL LOOK AFTER ITS
 HOME ELEMENT
Political Internes May Be Released-Demand For
 Equality Stands
By FREDERICK EgH United Press Staff Correspondentl

London, Oct 19--(UP)-Ger- many's Nazi government is ready to soften its internal policy while hardening its demands for equality with other powers, 1t was reported to-day in dispatches from Berlin.
 Chancellor Adolf Hitler was said to be planning mass condi- tional release of non-communist and non-socialist political internes, the Daily Herald diplomatic cor respondent reported. United Press Berlin dispatches indicated cer- tain softening of domestic policies.
 Allied governments conferred privately on their policy in the disarmament crisis.
 Great Britain planned to seek French permission to publish as a diplomatic white paper" the in- side story of events that led to Ger man withdrawal from the disarma- ment conference-and thus invite a German reply that might offer a chance of further talk.
 United States Ambassador Rob- ert W. Bingham, in an English speaking union dinner in his honor made a guarded reference to the political situation when he said:
 Tt is impossible to hope for progress in international relations so long as nations think in terms of their own difficulties and well fare only"
 The Marquess of Reading, one of Great Britain's most distinguished statesmen, a former special ambas- sador to the United States and for mer viceroy of India and lord chief justice of England, said in pro. posing Bingham's health:
 "The United States has been consistent throughout in its dis armament policies. The United States and Britain must unite wholeheartedly in seeking peace.
 No power would dream of en- tering a war if the United States and Britain gave the lead and banded together against war"
 Hitler, in an interview with G. Ward Price. special correspondent of the Daily Mail, was quoted as saying that no one in Germany wanted war.
 Almost all leaders of the nation. al socialist movement were actual combatants 'in the World war Hitler was quoted as saying. q have yet to meet a combatant who desired a renewal of the horrors of the AZ years of the World war
 Reports that the Nazi regime is teaching that the nation ha, deep grievances against France which can be repaired only by ( victory of German arms are sfalse.'

IFASCISTS BEGIN
 FORMATION OF
 INTERNATIONAL
World Wide Organization That Would Oppose All
 Other Political Bodies
BY ROBERT H. BEST

(COpgFhknt, 1v80, ny OWhttU ffcSSb
 Vienna. October 19 = (UP) = Fascists are conducting secret me- gotiations for a world congress to form fourth international" ded- icated to opposing communist, so- dencies, 1t was learned on high au- thority today. A
 Planned to function like the first three internationals, all of cialist-communist character, the fourth International would have an exactly opposite purpose.
 It was learned that Fascist or ganizations in many nations have exchanged views tor months on the possibility of forming an orr ganization to oppose the domina- ton of allegedly outdated demo- cratic political organizations and ideas of government.
 r The proposed new international Is referred to synonymously by its sponsors as an international or ganization of youth. The idea Is to organize the younger genera tion in age and thought to the "twenty-first century idea" oi getting the best brains of the young to working in all countries.
 Premier Benito Mussolini, of Italy, George Washington of the Fascist movement, was declared to be in the background of plans for the congress.
 Mussoiini has said his Italian Fascism was not an export article, but informants said that because of his declaration he was in the background, and at the request of Italian Fascists the first announce ment of congress, would be made somewhere outside Italy.
 Revelation of plans for the international followed a recent startling trend toward Fascism un- der its own name or that of Ger man Naziism.
 Fascists are in control in Ger many. Chancellor Engelbert Doll- fuss of Austria, though an enemy of German Fascism, Is fast organ izing his government on the lines of the Fascist guild system of Italy.
 Strong Nazi parties have devel- oped in Czechoslovakia, Norway, Esthonia and other countries and are fighting democratic parties: ,,,
 oConIG eetaoishrdl dlushrdlushrdiulll
 All are motivated by the convic- tion that democratic government IS inefficient and. that in future peo- ples must look to enlightened Fas- cist rulers for guidance and follow them unquestioningly. ..
 The new organization would make no clear division between communism, socialism, liberalism or democracy, but seek to jettison all.
