NAZIS TAKING UP VOTING TICKETS

BY RICHARD D. MCMILLAN United Press Stan COrrespondent)

BY RICHARD ID. MCMILLAN United Press Stan Correspondent
 Saarbrucken, Jan. 12-(UP)- Nazis are conflscating plebiscite voting cards of Jews in the Saar front complained to the League of Nations Governing Commission to- day.
 Members of the Nazi German front, the anti-NaZis charged, are going among Jews and asking them how they intend to vote in tomorrows plebiscite, which is to decide the future of the Saar ter ritory.
 The Jews, antl-Nazis said, in- variably replied that they would vote for return of the territory to Germany and then the NaZis asked the Jews to hand over their voting cards, thus depriving them of the possibility of voting.
 The Nazi's motive apparently was that they suspected the Jews, no matter what their protestations, would vote against return; and the Jews declarations in favor of Germany would be but natural in view of fear of summary repri- als if 1t was found they voted against the Reich.
 Blizzard In The Saar
 A bllzzard-l like snow was piling up throughout the little Saar to- day. It had been showing for 24 hours, and there was no sign of abatement.
 Communications were disrupted and the 32 special trains scheduled to arrive today with thousands more Germans returning to vote were delayed.
 Continuance of the snow for an other 224 hours would seriously interfere with the voting, as 200,- 900 Saarlanders must be trans

Con- don. Hauptmann's trial was in ads adjournment over the weekend, ale though counsel maintained an air of confidence and depreciated the prosecution evidence, 1t was known that the week had been one of sur prises and disappointment.

RADIO TALKS
By JOSIAH o. WALCOTT
Chancellor, State of Delaware.

CndHcellor' state OA OeldWdfc'
THE grimmest irony in all the
l. radio programs that come
over the air is found in that type
of program where two college profess
sors, who are not really in disagree
ment, debate with each other accord
ing to prepared manuscript the
merits of a certain theory Of money
or the wisdom and workability of some
far-reaching scheme Of social reform
all to the end that the people, the
butchers, the bakers and the candle
stick makers, may be equipped to form
an intelligent judgment on the intri-
cate subject and thereafter compel
their representatives to act according
", when as a matter of fact two other
professors of equal standing and worth
could be picked up from almost any
institution of learning to demonstrate
with a positiveness equally pontiical
that the first two are entirely wrong.

COMMENTS ON

NATIONAL CHARACTERS
PREVENTION OF WAR
BY SIR NORMAN ANGEL
English Publicist and Author.


THE public mind can easily be
Il persuaded to adopt policies
which mean war. The pre-war
method of defense is fruitful cause
of conflict. The method consists in
each state attempting to be stronger
than any other state challenging its
interests. 1t is rooted in the denial of
right to the weaker.
The only way out is for the COM
munity Of states to create common
protection. The public thinks falsely
that armies and navies have the same
function as police, whereas their pur-
pose really is to permit the imposition
of certain views upon any challenger.
Defense Of the individual, whether
a person or a state, must be the affair
of the community. This principle gains
force from the fact that the defense
of wealth in the modern world does
not mean the defense Of goods, as
goods must change hands to create
wealth.

RURAL ELEcTRIFIcATIoN

Chairman General Electric Company
THE public service companies
i have extended their lines far
into rural areas, as far as it was
economically justifable to go. well
come the activities of the government
in extending rural service into uneco-
nomic fields if the social advantages
of doing so justify the government en-
tering into such fields at all.
Now that housing is a new art, as
new and different from the old as the
motor car from the carriage, I hope
that the young and productive brains
of America may now devote them
selves to the home and by its ratio
of improvement bring it in step with
the vast advances we have made in
other fields.

THERE are several things the
i railways must do. Deadwood
must be cleared away in a ruth
less manner. Unnecessary sidelines
and super1uous mainlines must be
cleared away.
The railways must abandon obsolete
things to which they have been accus-
toned for 100 years. They must ruth
lessly cut away outmoded railway
equipment.
They must amalgamate their ter
minals to cut expenses. There must
be groupings Of railways and combina-
lions of railways instead of fighting.
They must develop service for the
collection of parcels and packages now
collected by motor transports.

 GIANTS TO CINCH
 NATIONAL HONORS
Rival Players Claim Terry- men Lucky" Strain
 Beginning to Tell
By GEORGE KIRKsEY 'nlfnd T1rnar CfaP ClowraaxannSls


 New York, June 27-(UP)-- Gotham's baseball fans are haiiing the New York Giants as National league champions. The Giants end- ed Q. successful home stand against the western clubs, winning 12 games and losing six, firmly en- trenched in first place with a 6h game lead. But--there is evidence that the killing pace is beginning to tell on the Terrymen.
 Rival ball players are beginning to refer to the Giants as lucky" They point out that during the past homestand the Giants were fortunate in having two opposing teams lost star players before meeting New York. The Pirates were deprived of their leading hit- ter, Arky Vaughan, and their ace moundsman, Cy Blandon, before the Giants series. The Cubs lost Freddy Lindstrom, center fielder who was going in great form, and Stanley Hack, third baseman.
 "You can't count the Giants in with more than 90 games left to play" said Charlie Grimm, Cubs manager. They've got two tough western road trips ahead of them. The Pirates, Cardinals and Cubs have only one more eastern trip to make. It's going to be close race and the Giants are going to need their long lead before the dog days"
 The Cubs revealed weaknesses in the Giants over-worked pitching staff when they knocked Roy Parmelee and Carl Hubbell, two New York aces, out of the box during the series just closed. Then they battled Hal Schumacher to the last ditch yesterday before the Giants won, 6-2.
 The Philadelphia Phillies. paced by George Watkins, with two homers and two singles, blasted out a 12-5 victory over the Cincin- natl Reds. Watkins accounted for seven runs.
