in an adjustment of her foreign pol
icy, has assumed the role of a lone
wolf arbiter of world peace in an en-
deavor to weather the storm and
WELD the balance of power in the
rapidly-shifting scene of interna-

Various statements of government
leaders and the reaction here to
movements of the nations of Europe
and the Far East and the United
States indicate Britain is looking
about for ways to offset the strength
of new alliances. political group fronts,
or friendly relationships.
Downing street is keeping the
closest watch on French maneuvers
to surround Germany with French
allies, plainly regarding that strategy
as aimed not only at boxing Hitlerism
in but permitting Paris to take over
the leadership of continental politics.
The new policy last week withstood
the French attack at Geneva on the

SOCIALISTS TAKE
MILITANT STAND
Favor Use of General Strike
in Resisting War-0Id
Guard Routed.
BY the Associated Press,

BY the Associated Press.
DETROIT, June A.-The Socialist
party of America was committed to-
day to a revolutionary program advo-
eating resistance to war with all avail
able means, including the general
strike, and to the belief that de-
mocracy must not stand in the way
of the establishment of a proletarian
rule in event of the complete col
lapse of capitalism.
THE convention of the party-after
routing the right wing "old guard in
the election of National Executive
Committee-affirmed its belief in
these principles by two-to-one vote.
This was the boldest, most militant
stand taken by the Socialist party
since the anti-war declaration of the
convention in 1917 in ST. Louis.
In the National Committee elec-
tons only one member of the "old
guard" slate was elected-James
O'Neal, editor of the New Leader.
The coalition of centrists, leftists
and extremists easily forced through
a national committee friendly to the
party leadership of Norman Thomas.
Thomas and Mayor Daniel W. Hoan
led the forces of the coalition against
the "old guard" in gaining a victory
for the direct-actionist declaration of
principles in the event of war or COL
lapse of capitalism.
The declaration did not directly
mention the dictatorship of the
proletariat'-as contained in a resolu-
ton defeated closely by the "oid
guard two days ago-but did urge
the abandonment of democratic
methods in the event the collapse OF
the capitalist structure gave the So
cialists the opportunity to establish
the workers rule.

CONNALLY HON0RS
DAVIS IN SERVICES.
Spirit Like That Shown by
ConfederateS Held
Needed Today.

A spirit similar to the patriotism
and sacrifice that the Confederates
displayed in the sixties and in the
dark days of reconstruction is needed
In the present troublous times, Sena-
tor Tom Connally of Texas declared
yesterday at Confederate memorial
exercises in Arlington Cemetery. 1t
was the birthday anniversary of JEFF
terson Davis.
Patriotism displayed from Bull
Run through the final struggles
serves to remind sons and daughters
of the Confederacy that the Con-
federate soldier is a symbol of courage,
fortitude and honor that must never
die in the Republic" said the Texan.
Still Dangers Ahead.
Reminding the reverent throngS
that the Republic has been living in
perilous days" he warned that there
are still dangers and rocks ahead"
There were present but a handful
of old soldiers who followed the Stars
and Bars.
To them Senator Connally said:
The ranks of the Confederate
thinning line. In little while the
last reunion will be held. Today we
gather to paw tribute to those who
have marched in their last campaign
to those who have bivouaced with
the dead. We commend to the gen.
eratiOnS who have followed them
their example of courage and sacri-
flee.
The most glorious thing about
Arlington National Memorial Gene
terry is that here lie alike the bodies
OF soldiers who followed the banner
of Grant, and the gallant spirits who
gathered under the battle flag of the
Confederacy and against hopeless
odds and overwhelming military re-
sources battled for four long, bitter,
tragic years.
"Sanctified Heroic Covenant.
Here, united in the last great
sleep. the wearers of the Blue and the
GRAY symbolic the union of the
discovered section and sealed by their
blood and sanctified by their heroic
covenant with death. out of the
titanic struggle in which they had
such a courageous and historic part
a reunited country honors the memory
of its patriotic and loftyspirited
sons, whether they wore the blue in
triumph, or, wrapped in their ragged
jackets of gray went down to defeat
in honor and glory"
Concerning Davis. he said
Gone is the bitterness that for a
half century prevented Jefferson
Davis name being restored to the
tablet at Chain Bridge. And be it
to the credit of Theodore Roosevelt
that the restoration was ordered
Today, Davis is known as one of the
greatest citizen-Soldiers since Caesar
led his legions into Gaul."
Wreaths were placed on the tombs
of the Unknown Soldier and of Gen

NEW DIRECTORY
OUTFOR BANKS

Reports from 17,114 banks open
for business on December 80, 1888,
as compared with 1928 at the
close Of 1882 have been received by
the Bankers Directory, published
by Rand McNally & Co.
This decrease Of 1,119, the pub
fishers report, is the smallest de-
crease since 1923, when the de-
cline was 926. In 1929 the de-
crease was 1873; in 1880, 1913;
in 1881, 3,269, and 1882, 1,495.
The February issue of Rand
McNally Bankers Monthly, the fif-
tieth anniversary number OF which
will appear next week, will state
that the banking figures for 1888
show definite improvement.
The magazine will say that with
the Government supplying new
capital funds to 4,100 banks and
with SO per cent of the State and
national banks now in existence
benefiting from the temporary in
Surance fund of the Federal De-
posit Insurance Corporation, there
is every reason to believe that
banking will be stabilized during
the present year.
