WAR WITH 50 NATIONS
WOULD BE SUICIDAL
By BOYD LEWIS

Copyright, 1885, by United Press
The danger of European war
has become imminent due to the
leagues plan to shut off ltaly's

machine. The league sanctions
general staff" will meet December
IL to consider voting this sane
ton.
Oil sanctions, an Italian for
eign office official said Friday,
"would be regarded as a profound
and studied unfriendly action" 1t
is believed in Rome that an oil
embargo would be regarded as a
"warlike measure" to which Italy
must reply AS Premier Musso-
lini promised in his speech launch
ing the Ethiopian campaign nearly
two months ago-with "war."
The British have indicated they
believe II Duce is bluffing but the
cabinet defense committee signif-
icantly has been meeting and
there has been no lessening Of
British troops and warships in the
Mediterranean.
If Mussolini should decide on
suicidal war with more than so
sanctionist nations, his first act
presumably would be to attack the
British fleet with his bombing
planes. Although such a war could
end only in disaster for Fascism
and Italy, Italians assert Musso-
lini might better go down in
blaze of glory than supinely await
gradual starvation of his armies
for want of needed materials.
No declaration of retaliatory
war is expected Saturday, how

Mussolini to indicate clearly what
steps Italy will take if the league

Propaganda Is
Fletcher's View
OF Atlanta Talk

WASHINGTON, Nov. 80. (UP)
Chairman Henry P. Fletcher of the
Republican national committee,
last night branded the Presidents
speech in Atlanta, Ga, as "sheer
political propaganda"
"Mr. Roosevelt's speech is an
obvious build-up for a future fake
balancing of the budget by New
Deal slight-of-hand. When this
new rabbit comes out of the hat
it will be recognized as just an
other smart trick to mislead and
fool the public" Fletcher said.
Fletcher charged that Mr.. Roos9-
Welt has not fulfilled his campaign
promise of government economy,
adding that the President as a
candidate is for economy and as
a President he is a spender."
The committee chairman de-
manded that President Roosevelt
take the country into his con-
fidence and name the bankers who
said in 1888 that the country
could stand a debt of between
ffty-fve and seventy billion dol
lars"
Fletcher added: -, =
an speaking of the credit Oh
the United States as being the best
in the world, Mr.. Roosevelt DOUBT
less has reference to the low faIe
of interest at which the govern
ment is operating. This rate OF IN
terest is the result Of the admin
istration's manipulation OF the
market for government bonds ana
it's forcing of obligations upon our
commercial banks.
"The sudden interest In econ
omy now shown by Candidate
Roosevelt springs not from de-
sire to cease his political spending
and squandering, but from his
tardy realization that the long,
suffering citizens are about to CAL
a halt"

ACTUAL WORK
ON NEW GYM
STARTS soon
Supervisor of Construction
Will Be Announced
Early Next Week
MATERIALS WILL BE
BOUGHT LOCALLY

Appointment of supervisor
for the construction of Hender-
sonville's new $4,000 gymnasium
is expected to be announced early
next week, and by the close of the
week it is expected that actual
work on the project will be under
way. -...
The building program as ap-
proved by WPA officials and &C
cepted by city officials. and the
city school board Z, represents a
probable outlay of $34,124 and is
expected to give employment to
131 men for six months. Of the
total cost, the federal government
will supply. $4,000, including
S21,276 for labor. while $6515
will be borne locally, principally
in the form of materials. -,
The gymnasium will be arected
on the hill Immediately at the rear
of the high school building, with
the main entrance on Ninth ave-
nue. but with other entrances
nearest the high school building
for the use of pupils. The struc-
ture will contain a combination
gymnasium floor and dance hall
considerably larger than the pres
emit gymnasium, the exact size to
depend on the ultimate cost; stor-
age room for athletic equipment;
checking room; removable bleach
ers for the gymnasium; stage en-
tirely across one end of the build
ing: locker and shower rooms for
girls and boys on the same level
with the gymnasium floor, and
combination locker and shower
rooms for visiting athletic teams
and dressing rooms beneath the
stage for members of dramatic
casts. The building will be prin-
cipally of stone and steel con-
struction. n
In the division of costs, the WPA
assumes, in addition to labor, the
necessary cement, blasting powd-
err, explosives, flooring, sub-floor-
ing and roofing. The city admin
istration and the school board will
supply heat for the building, by
tieing it in with the high school
plant, this item being fixed at
$4,000: compressor, trucks, sand.
crushed rock, bed stone, framing
lumber, windows, doors, paint,
electrical materials, plumbing ma.
terials, steel roof trusses and
hardware. The largest item next
to heating, is for steel roof trus-
ses, which will cost approximately
S11OO. 1t was understood today
that provision has been made to
acquire everything needed local! ~
with the exception of the roof
trusses, and that negotiations for
acquiring these are underway.

Bankers Doubtful
20 Billion Dollars
Safe Debt Level

A majority of interviewable men,
who could be grouped in President
Roosevelt's classification of great
Wall Street bankers" today ex-
pressed doubt that the national
debt could safely 60 to seventy
billion dollars, as President Roose-
welt said in his Atlanta speech yes
terday.
None of them challenged Roose-
velt's statement arbitrarily, but
several said they couldn't under
stand the reasoning that would
consider a per capita national
debt of $500 safe.
Some bankers discounted the

MONSTER DEMONSTRATIONS
ACCORDED ROOSEVELT WHEN
ATLANTA HAS HOMECOMING
Town Goes Mad With En-
thusiasm; State-U. S.
Issues Tangle
By TOM REYNOLDS
United Press Staff Correspondent

ATLANTA, Ga, Nov. 80. (UP)
Atlanta yesterday was plunged
into the maddest political carni-
val in its history as a quarter Of
million southerners accorded
President Roosevelt a hero's wei
come in the bailiwick of his sever
est Democratic critic.
In town gone mad with Demo-
cratic enthusiasm, ancient Georgia
political feuds were tangled with
national issues as regular Demo-
Gratis of the Old South reaffirmed
their faith in democracy in a mon
ster demonstration.
Eugene Talmadge, the red-gal-
fused Georgia governor whose bit
ter denunciation of the New Deal
has elevated him to the status Of
potential presidential timber, was
hanged in effigy on the capitol
lawn.
"Old Gene amt what he used
to be-" said one sign attached to p
dummy suspended from tree by
100 enthusiastic Democrats.
Scene will get Ph.D. from be-
hind the pillow some day if his
mules don't die" said another.
Talmadge, undismayed by the
outpouring of loyal partisanS
which turned Atlanta streets into
a bedlam during the Presidents
visit, stalked off to his farm term
ing the demonstration political
convention"
'I'm going to hunt something
to plant that doesn't have a pro-
cessing tax on it," he said caus-
tically.
Before he left, however, his fol-
lowers fought back against an at
tempt of New Deal Democrats to
wrest control of the party from
his hands.
Only handful of the 12O men,
bers of the State Democratic ex-
ecutive committee answered call
to meet in the morning and force
a presidential preferential pr'-
mary. Judge Newt Morris, who
summoned the meeting, said that
% members signed pledges to
force a primary, but newspaper
men counted only Is present.
WAS PRELUDE TO
POLITICAL HYSTERIA
The political maneuverings were
a prelude to the storm Of polltlcai
hysteria that swept the city as the
President arrived from his warm
Springs "little White House"
Atlanta's f nous Peachtree
street was jammed by spectators
along a 2G-mile route which the
