Mcdonald also was interviewed by
a Department Of Justice operative and
Sergt. Van D. Hughes of Washington

ranged with robbery as motive. The

for the ambush.
In addition to the floodlightS about
McDonald's home, which is about so

PENNINGTON, N. j., October 23.-
Bruno Hauptmann will be arraigned
tomorrow on the charge of murder
ing Col. Charles A. Lindbergh's in
FAINT son.
He will plead mot guilty" That is
the only answer to a first degree MUIR
der indictment which New Jersey law

math Of the kidnapping OF Charles

MRS. ROOSEVELT
URGES EDUCATION
Asks Training of Women in
Public Affairs - AIumnae
Also Hear Mrs. Morrow.

Local alumnae of seven major won-
ems colleges, meeting simultaneously
yesterday afternoon. with some l00,-
900 graduates in other cities TO hear
a radio address by Mrs. Dwight Nor
row, widow of the former Senator
from New Jersey, later listened to
Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt stress the
increasing need for trained women in
public affairs.
Mrs. Roosevelt told the Washing
ton meeting she had never been to
college, and therefore appreciated
more the value Of such an education.
At a time like this. she said, it would
be a shame if women's colleges were
neglected.
The meetings were sponsored by
"The Alumnae Committee of Seven
Colleges" representing Barnard. Bryn
Mawr, Mount Holyoke, Radcliffe,
Smith, Vassar and Wellesley.
Liberal Culture Needed.
Mrs. Morrow, an alumna of South
College, said a background OF liberal
culture Is more important in this era
of increased leisure than ever before.
She said in part:
college women, professional wom-
en- and women in politics have all re-
ceived a stimulating amount of crit
icism in our generation. An analysis
of the criticism directed against the
college woman shows the main point
to be that higher education has not
been specialized for women. The col
lege has given no courses designed
for girls only-no perfect housekeeper
is turned out, no guaranteed cook or
nurse. The assumption is that a
woman's duties are all material, there
fore she should be trained to meet
only the material demands of life.
"The liberal college aims to develop
student as a person, to awaken
sensibilities and develop powers which
will make her a more worthwhile hu-
man being. The wisdom of the col
lege aim is being shown afresh today,
when the new leisure is making Spe-
cial demands upon the spirit. Every
inner resource is needed to keep
homes cheerful where there is enforced
idleness, to keep minds employed and
the tenor of life steady and sane dur
ing a period of hard adjustment. We
are all being taught lesson in COM
parative values these days, and a
background of liberal culture makes
the lesson easier to learn"
Need Of Endowments Cited.
Assistant Secretary of State Francis
B. Sayre, another speaker at the
Washington meeting, which was held
in the United States Chamber OF
Commerce Auditorium, told of the
desirability for increased contribu-
tions to women's colleges. Last year
American colleges received s60,000,-
900 in endowments, and but $4,000, ,00C
of this went to women's institutions
he said.
A test of civilization, he declared
is the treatment nation accords its
women, and America leads the world
in this regard.
Among the special guests who oc-
cupfed the platform were Mrs. Henry
Morgenthau, jr.; Alanson B. Hough-
ton, former ambassador to Great
Britain; Canon Anson Phelps Stokes
Miss Holda Smith, leader in workers
education and now with the Federal
Emergency Relief Administration
Miss Marguerite Wells, president of the
League of Women Voters, and Mrs
w. Chaplin Huntington, national pres
ident Of Smith Alumnae Association.

NEWSPRINT EXPORT
BAN IS CONSIDERED
Quebec Government to Ask Do
minion Action if It Is
Deemed Necessary.
BY the Associated Press.

BY tne Associated tTeSS.
MONTREAL, October 23.-Premier
L. A. Taschereau said today the Que
bee government will ask the Dominion
government to prohibit the exporta-
ton of Canadian newsprint sold to
United States publishers below cost
price if it considers the action neces-
sary.
The government of the province
hoped the permier said, that salts
factory agreement would be reached
between the United States publishers,
the Canadian newSprint companies
and the government, but if not it was
prepared to ask the Dominion gov
ernment Ito utilize its Jurisdiction. 4"
At meeting of the A. N. P. A.
yesterday, the members were told by
President Howard Davis that unless
the validity and dependability of con-
tracts with the Quebec companies"
are assured they would be advised to
flnd other available and potential
sources of newsprint supply.
The attitude of the American pub
fishers resulted from a statement
made by the Premier October 10 in
which he said he had heard "the st.
Lawrence Paper Co., alone OF all
Canadian companies, has fixed g. price
for newsprint with one, of It's GUS
toners for all Of 1885 at the existing
1uinous level"

sion against the ''indefensible practice

told by some business associates that

i, President in Charge.
There is a general public impress
sion that Donald Richberg has sue

AS an example, the other day one
of the N. r. A. boards called on

it was just going over the reorgani-
zation plans. What actually happened
was that the board could not agree on
| the phraseology of an Executive order
which will be issued shortly. The
President arbitrated the dispute and
wrote the language to be used in the
| order.
That will be the way on every point
in development of new N. r. A. policy
The boards have orders that, if they
are unable to agree unanimously, the
issue should be taken to the President
and every one knows the boards rarely
will be able to agree on anything i'm
