ostensibIe intent of that resolution
is to give every man and woman a
chance to stay out of war. Its real
effect will be to make jackaSSes out
of all of US. That's just what every
other American ambassador in
London has wanted, 10, these 20
years. The land is filled with spies
and agents bidding the lovers Of
peace to join the AAA (Anglo-
American Alliance) or the SSSS

Personally, I have not yet decided
whether the trip across the Pacific
will be better tonic for most OF
our people, or the one over the At
lantic. And while we're giving
Great Britain a good trimming, long
since overdue, for the insults to our
flag and government between 1914
1917, and for double-crossing PreSi-
dent Wilson before 1918 and trip
ping him up after 1918, and for big
bills due, the $4,000 odd members of
the AAA in the United States can

British chestnuts out of the fire in

In view of The Indianapolis
Times interest in getting things
started, I suggest that we get started
not later than July 4, 1885. And
Indiana, as the editor already has
suggested, is as good as any state
in the Union ito show the nation
how to keep out of wars that do
not affect u.s." That's just my point

them Don't you see, Mr.. Editor?
Why wait? Why equivocate?
AS a compromise, for this is a
democracy, may suggest through
your column to President RoOse-
welt that those who prefer to remain
at home to read the war news from
the two fronts, be permitted to do
so. Thus everybody will be satisfied.

! TULSA Okla, March 29.-Herbert Hoover's
\ letter to the Republican assembly at Sac
I ramento is fine Thousands of wild schemes
spring up every year With a two-party sys-
TEN. at least fundamental issues can be de-
cided squarely by a ma jOrity popular vote. None
can be decided that way when you have only a
remnant of a disciplined conservative party on
one side and, on the other, strong, liberal
democracy plus hash Of varied dissent from
both.
We are in the latter condition today. 1t opens
the way to control by minority blocs. They
can't win an election, but they can win an Issue
! by threatening to withdraw support from an
administration which in part depends on them.
1t is a dangerous situation and, as Herbert
Hoover says lies on the very lip Of the sink
into which one great nation after another abroad
1 is falling"
/ It is Just such a lack of cIean-cut balance be-
i tween pro and con, Fascist and Communist
neutrality-suspicious. ridiculously small-that
has seized Italy, Russia, Germany Spain Poland
and Hungary. There is hardly hairs breadth of
difference between what Hitler said and or
gained and did in Germany and what Father
! Coughlin is saying and organizing and may do
here.
disagree with almost every other paragraph
in Mr.. Hoover's letter but I surely agree with
that one. The Republican party does have to
decide whether it is to stand by its guns Of clear
conservatism or whether it is to adopt a dilute
democracy If it does, the latter is lost. If it
ll'lSlo lJo dIlCltIlL Vie peOple OF
country can at least decide whether they want
the New Deal or the old.
MIR. HOOVER hoists the old flag. There is
1V1 hardly word in the letter that varies in
sense from what he said when he was a can
didate-both times-and when he was Presi-
dent
My own opinions in opposition to his are
too well known to need repeating. Small in
dustries have not been oppressed-they have
been freed and salvaged. There is no regimen
tation of our people, but only popular control
of powers that did dominate them The
New Deal policy is not an economy Of scarcity
1t is an economy of balance. instead of the
economy Of unmanageabe surplus for which Mr.
Hoover has always sto0d-especally for agri-
culture.
1t is far better adapted than Mr.. Hoover's
old order to tighten the windows of American
homes with hopes-to use his own expression
In fact, it has already done that, against the
darkness Of despair in those windows which 1t
found when it started.
The letter is SO HoOverish that it even echoes
prosperity just around the corner and rugged in
diVidualisn-"We stand on the threshold of a
great forward economic movement" and Amer
lea must look to the creative impulses of free
men and women born Of the most enterprisng
and selfreliant stock in this world"
Whether you agree with him or not-and
never did-it is good to see fighter who stands
for something and is not afraid to say what it
is-hoWever unpopular that may be.

DEFENDS REARMING
BY GERMANY
By Marlin Simon.


The readoption Of general con-
scription in Germany has stirred up
the resentment of the former allies
and their press upbraids Adolf Hitler
for having infringed on the terms
Of the Treaty Of Versailles and for
preparing new war. But is it really
so? Was it actually Hitler who first
neglected to heed the disarmament
clauses of the treaty? Were not
rather the allies the ones who failed
to fill the disarmament obligations
TO which they were bound just as
well as the Germans?
For Is years Germany has been
waiting for the fulflllment of the
obligations before deciding to fol-

BASE METALS R|SE'

Lead Jumps Another So
Scrap Steel, Zinc and
Copper Also Firm.
Ry the Associated Press,


NEW YORK, May 22.-Heavy buy
ing of base metals continued to fea-
ture commodity markets today.
Another jump of So a ton in lead
carried the quotation for this metal
to the highest level in more than a
year, and railroad type scrap steal was
reported to have sold in the Pittsburgh
market at $3.50 a ton, up 81 a ton
from the previous rate.
The domestic price Of zinc held
firmly at the improved levels estab-
lished last week. and copper in the
export market was quoted around $50
cents, which Is about the peak for the
last year or more.
Because Of their close association
with industrial activity, the strength
of markets for these metals continued
to stir the imagination of financial
quarters.
There was talk of active speculative
buying in connection with infiationary
expectations, but those familiar with
conditions in the respective markets
expressed the belief that the major
part of the buying was for immediate
and nearby consuming needs.
1t was reported that paint and bat
terry manufacturers we're the principal
buyers Of lead. The former are said
to be preparing for an unusually large
demand for their product in connec-
ton with government financed build
ing and rehabilitation projects. The
battery makers were understood to be
taking large quantities of the metal in
expectation Of we'll sustained level
of automobile buying over the balance
of the year.
Stocks of lead in the United States
at the end of April totaled 220,043
short tons, the American Bureau of
Metal Statistics reported today. This
is the lowest volume of stock re-
ported since February, 1884. Pro-
duction in April was 32,389 tons,
compared with 32,92l in March and

The sheriff was killed when he

freeing three prisoners held for tres
passing in a house from which one
of them had been evicted. An unem-
ployed miner also was killed and
seven persons wounded.
The charges against the Is men,
all held without bond, were based
on a little-used statute which pro-
vides that persons taking part in
"riotous or tumultuous assembly, in
which a peace officer is killed shall
be charged with murder.
Murder charges against four others,
including a 15-year-old girl, were dis
missed.
All of those facing murder charges
pleaded not guilty last night at pre-
lininary hearings.
