The best diplomatic guessers here be-
| lieve results from the Hitler defiance OF
the world will be long time coming
The way they figured it out. Hitler
probably will proceed with rearming in
| a moderate way. He has no means of
making himself a serious menace for
a while yet.
II he gets near the danger
point, France uiH act, probably
through the League OF Nations.
Reoccupation of the Ruhr is con-
stdered hardly likely. 1t uill be
much easier for France to share
the responsibility ptth other na-
tons
However. the situation constitutes a
constantly menacing sword over Europe
and no prophesies can be guaranteed.
Certain Senate nationalists are pre-
pairing some fireworks against Norman
Davis.
They believe the evidence indicates
the disarmament question has become
Europeon political question and that
Davis is up to his neck in it. Agita-
ton will start soon to have us keep
our hands entirely of
simultaneously there will be renewed
cheering in the same quarters about the
death OF the League OF Nations.
Japan and Germany are crawling out.
The United States and Russia never
| went in. Only Britain. France and
Italy, of the big powers are still hang
ing on.
N. r. A. Publicity Slowing Up.
The hot publicity campaign of the
N r. A. is cooling
Gen. johnson has been easing out of
his regular bi-weekly press conferences.
Since he was sick. they have been held
irregularly Last Friday one was sched-
uled for pm. The general Cancelled it
and invited a chosen few press repre-
sentatives to his Office at noon.
There are several reasons. One is that
the N. r. A. is becoming local story.
Developments are largely confined to in
dividual locality interests. The nation
al sales campaign is no longer needed.

DAUGHTER Of RAIL
OFFICIAL GUARDED
Renewal of Campaign by Ex.
tortionist Who Threatened
Life Reported.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
PHILADELPHIA, October 1.-THE
Philadelphia Inquirer says Betty
Downes, 15-year-old daughter of a
Pennsylvania Railroad onicial, is the
object of a renewed campaign by the
extortionist who threatened her life two
months ago.
As result. the girls bodyguard has
been recalled and armed men are as
signed to protect her to and from school
in the Chestnut Hill section of the city.
the Inquirer says.
Despite a widespread search by local
police and Federal agents, the man re-
mains at large who demanded SIS, 900
from the girls father, James r. DoWnes,
chief of freight transportation of the
Pennsylvania Railroad, as the price of
her safety
The paper says he communicated by
telephone with the Downes home on
September "a and Mrs. Downes made
an appointment to meet him in the
lobby of the Du Pont Hotel in Whining
ton, Del. She kept the appointment
escorted by Department of Justice
agents, but the man did not appear. the
paper adds Two days later, he called
again with promise that you will
hear from me again"
The girl first was threatened August
5 while she was at a girls camp in
New Hampshire and National Guards
men and deputy sherif1s were assigned
to guard her and about 100 of her
/ companions.

NEW YORK, october 17-When
Prof. Albert Einstein arrived from Eu-
rope on the Westernland today he was
hurried off the liner into a tug. avoid
ing the usual landing procedure. No
explanation was offered about whether
this was done to avert possible dem
onstration by sympathizers with Ger
man Nads. or whether the renowned
mathematician merely wished to escape
the crowds at the pier.
DR.. Einstein Is in the United States

to get through New York with mini

his coworker DR.. Walther Mayer of
Vienna, who will be his assistant at the

Another reason appears to be that
Johnson is getting nervous on the sub
ject of publicity. His blow-up with the
Business Letter Services suggests that.
W. NJ Kiplinger, who writes weekly
confidential letter to business execu-
tiveS. was told he could see no one at
the N. r. A. but johnson and the pub
licity man. Charles Michaelson. john
son did the telling, with gestures.
Revealed Sachs Resignation.
Apparently Kiplinger had been OBJ
tanning information from Johnson's
subordinates. One item thus obtained
was the resignation of Alexander Sachs
as deputy administrator.
1t seems Sachs submitted a resigna-
tion all right, but few knew about it.
Johnson apparently prevailed on Sachs
to stay while longer. Sachs went to
New York to clean up some business he
had to attend to. 1t was agreed an
nouncement of the resignation would be
withheld for the time being.
The general naturally was displeased
when the news got around.
Johnson contends the Sachs
resignation yarn Was inaccurate,
as lcere some others used by Kip
lin1er On the same charge, he
also completely barred from N.
r. A. James True, Uho 1Crites a
confidential letter somewhat SINH
lar to Kiplinger's Those Dho
haze read the tpo competing let
ters regularly seem to beliepe Kip
lin0er has been tair to the N. r.
A. in a general uay, but that True
has been extremely critical.
Interest in the matter will be largely
confined to business executives through
out the country who subscribe to the
confidential letters. But those are the
men with whom the N. r. A. is dealing
daily
The first result of the affair was a
lot of valuable publicity for the Busi-
ness Letter Services. which hardly
helped Johnson's purpose.

" HE best political joke of the Fall

will be the biggest shotgun election

goes deeper than that Hitler is
