frankly, I'm scared. The revolu-

hard. 1t is so practical. I hate to

from farm and factory and kitchen
from poorhouse and fo'c'sl. Ever,

It is a cross section of the oppressed
bewildered soul of the American
people.
Unfortunately, the Daily Worker
can't answer all these letters. 1

But occasionally a letter stands out
and thus Julia HIS letter attracted
the Editors eye, because it was ont
flash of the hidden mind Of the young
working girl of America. Naive anc
honest, it is a most touching appeal
and trying to answer it makes one
feel clumsy, as though walking
through a rose-garden in hobnailec

Approval Uttered
BV Berlin Press

BERLIN, May II 0NS0
German public opinion, following
the lead of government spokes'
men, showed widespread approval
of President Roosevelt'S peace
message today.
The Deutches Allgemeine lei
tung, however, was not unstinting
in praise, declaring:
"The appeal was dOubtlessIy
dictated by good will and high
responsibility. But it is merely
a beginning. Roosevelt fails to
draw practical conclusions"
The Boersen zeitung stated
that on the second occasion OF
American intervention in Euro
pean history at critical time
it could "only hope President
Roosevelt's initiative would lead
to happier results than did for,
mer President Wilson'S"
The newspaper Germanla said:
"The appeal removes the ten
sion at last and spurs Geneva's
practical work. President
RoOsevelt's proposals exceed the
kellogg pact because they for
bid repriSalS and sanctions"

Glass Bill for Bank Reform
Faces Four-Group Assault

Four avenues of attack were
opened on the Glass banking bill
today because of the Administra'
tion'S proposal for Federal inSur'
ance of deposits in member banks
of the Federal Reserve System.
Friends and foes of a Federal
guarantee of deposits were seek
ing to modify the Administration
plan. A group of conservative Re
publicanS sought to block the
measure because they opposed a
Federal guarantee in any form.
A group of Democrats de,
manded a similar guarantee of de-
posits in State banks. Other
Democrats proposed immediate
application of partial guarantee,
since the Administration plan
would not take effect until July
l, 1884.
Independent Attack
A group of independents, led
by Senator Couzens (RO of Mich
igan, criticised the Administra-
tion proposal on the ground that
it did not guarantee deposits in
reality. They objected to the
lengthy procedure proposed by
the Administration before de
positors would be assured Of
their funds in event a bank
closed.

Check to Germany
Is Seen in France

PARIS, May II QN.S0-The
French Foreign Office today pro
nounced President Roosevelt's
appeal for world disarmament
distinctly a move to check Ger
man plans to rearm.
The foreign office professed to
see nothing in Roosevelt'S attack
upon militarism as in any way
criticizing France. A spokesman
said:
''It is evident Mr.. Roosevelt
sent his message, to halt Ger.
many and not to bring forward
to the world any concrete dis
armament proposals."
After sleeping over the Roose-
velt appeal, government circles
today read into it much greater
significance than they attached
to it last night and the foreign
office announced that it "un-
doubtedly would be considered at
ministerial council"
However, the nationalist news
papers, such as the Echo de
Paris, failed to share the govern
ment's view. PertinaX declared
"the most disarming thing in
Roosevelt's message is his naive
reasoning"

Akron's executive officer and two
enlisted men were rescued. The
court said:
'The error in judgment has
been made evident to the court
by its study of the testimony.
The court has but little direct
knowledge of the consideration
upon which this judgment was
based.
Everything within the
knowledge of Commander Nc

made might have pointed to his
plan of action being justifiable.
Certainly we knew many con-
fIicting considerations had to
be set one against the other,
and what subsequent events
show to have been an erroneous

Reservations Seen
Certain for Japan

President Roosevelt's proposal
for a world peace pact today
encountered its first major OBJ
stacle in the threat of Japanese
refusal to adhere without reser'
vationS.
Japan's probable demand for
reservations became known fol
lowing visit to the State De
partment of Katsuji Debuchi.
the Japanese ambassador.
Debuchi called on Undersecre'
tary of State Phillips and, al.
though the primary purpose of
the visit was said to be in con-
nection with the coming visit
of Viscount Ishii, it was learned
that the japanese ambassador
discussed the Presidents pro-
posal.
Japan, it was said, will be
unable to accept Internationally
certain parts of the Presidents
proposal owing to the situation
in Manchuria and north China,
where Japan's armies are now
engaged in aiding the puppet
state of Manchukuo to crush
Chinese resistance.
With the japanese armies now
advancing south of the Great
Wall of China in the direction
of Tientsin and Peiping, Debu.
chi indicated it would be impos.
sible to agree at present to stop
military movements across its
frontiers.

penditures on unwarranted and
economic projects.
We must. by prompt and
vigorous action, override un-
necessary obstruction which in
the past have delayed the
starting of public works pro-
grams. This can be- accom-,
plished by simple and direct
procedure.
In carrying out this program
it is imperative that the credit
of the United States GoyVrn-
ment be protected and pre-
served.
This means that at the same
time we are making these vast
emergency expenditures there
must be provided sufficient rev.
enue to pay interest and amorti-
zation on the cost and that
revenues so provided must be
adequate and certain rather
than inadequate and specula-
tive.
New Taxation Needed
Careful estimates indicate
that at least 1920, 100000 of ad-
ditional revenue will be re-
quired to service the contem-
plated borrowings of the Gov
ernment. This will Of neces-
sity involve some form or forms
of new taxation.
A number of suggestions have
been made as to the nature Of
these taxes. I do not make a
specific recommendation at this
time, but I hope that the COM
mittee on Ways and Means Of
the House of Representatives
will make a careful study OF
revenue plans and be prepared
by the beginning Of the coming
week to propose the taxes
which they judge to be best
adapted to meet the present
need and which will at the
same time be least burdensome
to our people.

TOKYO, May II GN.SO.-Al'
though official comment was still
awaited, Japanese army circles
today accorded President RooSe'
velt's appeal for world peace an
unfriendly reception.
The proposal that no nation
permit it's army to cross its from

from army officials, who claimed

Japan will inform President

Text of Message On Huge
Public Works Program

if the means proposed do not
seem to be sufficiently adequate
or certain, it is my intention
to transmit to the Congress my
own recommendations in the
matter.
Emergency Is Grave
The taxes to be imposed are
for the purpose of providing re-
employment for our citizens.
Provisions should be made for
their reduction or elimination:
First: AS fast as increasing
revenues from improving buSi-
ness becomes available to re-
place them:
Second: Whenever the repeal
of the Eighteenth Amendment,
now pending before the States,
shall have been ratified and
the repeal of the Volstead act
effected. The pre-prohibition
revenue laws would then auto
matically go into effect and
yield enough wholly to eliminate
these temporary Unemployment
taxes.
Finally, stress the fact that
all of these proposals are based
on the gravity Of the emergency
and that therefore it is urgently
necessary Immediately to initi-
ate a unemployment campaign if
we are to avoid further hard
ships, to sustain business i'm
provement, and to pass on to
better things.
For this reason I urge prompt
action on this legislation.
