HUGE BONFIRES
 CLIMAX ELECTION
Largest Lit on No. River side Street Pliers
 Meet Tonight
BROOKLYN

Brooklyn last evening was the scene of a great political demon stration following election results. The return of the New Deal was reason enough to light bonfires that haven't famed in almost eight years. The largest was on North Riverside street, the same location where they were formerly built to receive victorious candi- dates, and old time residents can easily remember the huge fire that burned on November II, 1918 as a means of celebrating the armi- Stice.
 The 11th and 18th districts, both partially in Brooklyn, gave the democratic party the narrowest margin it has boiled in years.

The date for pblic presentation will be an- nouDced in the near future.

FREEDOM BILL AGAIN
President Asks Elimination
of Military Options.
BV UHifcd Press

By UHjtCd Press
WASHINGTON, March 2.-Presi-
dent Roosevelt proposed today in a
message to congress to give the
Filipino people another opportunity
to accept independence under terms
of the Hare -Hawes- Cutting bill, but
accompanied this recommendation
with a request for change in mill
tary and naval provisions Of that
expired act.
Chairman John McDuffie Of the
house insular affairs committee, said
that he would introduce a new bill
for Philippine independence today.
Mr.. Roosevelt asked that the
United States option to retain mill
tary bases in the Philippine islands
after independence be eliminated
and that a similar option regarding
naval bases be abandoned ultimately
after further discussion. Military
bases would be relinquished sinful
taneously with independence.
ITO change at this time the eco
nomic provisions of the previous law
would reflect discredit on ourselves, y
the message said.

Denunciation of existing condi-

With minimum of preliminary
remarks, Mr.. Morgan launched his
criticism of current procedure in

I'VE have witnessed the peculiar
spectacle of the judge of the circuit
court causing to be prepared the
prosecution of certain indianapolis
banking officials" Mr.. Morgan said.
This judge presented the evidence

nothing"
The next prosecutor should ex-
pose every shady act" of bank Off

should send them to prison, Mr..

Roosevelt Reported Anxious
to Outlaw Invasion
by Agreement.
Copyright, 1884, by United Press


LONDON, March 2.-An official
American source informed the United
Press today that President Roose-
velt was eager to have world nom
aggression treaty effected simulta-
neously with, or parallel to, any dis
armament agreement.
This desire. the informant said,
was behind the American proposal
made this week in reply to a British
disarmament memorandum, that
signatorieS to any diarmament
agreement pledge themselves to re-
frain from sending armed forces
across their neighbors' bordedrs.
1t was explained that the Presi-
dent was convinced that besides lim-
iting, or abolishing, large offensive
weapons it was essential to insure
that remaining armamentS were not
used for invasion.
This news came a few minutes
after Great Britain, in publishing
its air force estimates for 1934-1935,
offered Europe a clear choice be-
tween reaching disarmament
agreement or matching her in vast
expenditures on aerial armament.
1t was learned that Britain, as
part of the plan, is considering the
advisability of calling before the
meeting of the disarmament steer
ing committee April 10, special
conference of big powers. The fol-
lowing would be included:
United States, Japan, Russia,
Britain, France, Italy, Germany,
Belgium, Spain, Poland and one
representative of the Little Entente
nations (Czechoslovakia, Roumania
and YugoSlavia).
A sudden and dramatic revival of
disarmament activities came as Nor
man H. Davis, American disarma-
ment delegate, and Captain Anthony
Eden arrived here today.
Mr.. Davis came from New York,
Captain Eden from portentious
series of talks with high officials of
France, Italy and Germany.
