Neither the Hitler procla-
nation nor the new law spe-
officially said that Germany
denounces the military clauses
Of the Versailles Treaty, but
the CONSUMPTION law actually
was a denunciation and vio-
lation of the treaty.
The Hitler decision was disclosed
in an atmosphere of drama and
suspension at the propaganda min
istry after the cabinet had approved.
The Reichsfuehrer'S proclamation
revived Germany's objections to the
Versailles Treaty and voiced the
nations disappointment in the fall
ure of other powers to diSarm.
Openly PrOclaims Plans
Then it openly proclaimed the
plans of Hitler:
Germany then saw herself forced
to take measures for her own pro-
lection and is now publishing those
measures, part of which already
have been adopted" the proclama-
ton said. The air force was an
nounced earlier as being put on a
military basis.
The proclamation was divided into
three sections:
l. Universal military service.
2. Dividing the German peace
time army 0imited to 100000 men
by the Versailles Treaty. to IL army
corps and SO divisions.
3. Empowering Gen. Blomberg to
take measures necessary to carry
out the law approved by the cabinet.
Joseph Goebbels, summoning cor
respondents to the propaganda min.
istry for the announcement, per-
sonally read the proclamation in
tense atmosphere.
Cites Cry of War
Tomorrow Hitler will attend serv-
ices concentrating the German
heroes on Memorial Day at the
state opera house and, at that time,
he will elucidate the proclamation
to the assembled military leaders.
The Hitler proclamation deplored
the rearmament of other natiorL;
after Germany had fulfilled her OBJ
legations to disarm under the YER
Sailles Treaty.
There is cry of war today as
if there had never been a World
War or Versailles treaty." the
proclamation said.
The Hitler proclamation remarked
that Germany in recent years re-
peatedly had indicated willingness
to join in disarmament plans, but
these plans always were rejected by
Others"
Goebels read the proclamation to
foreign correspondents in a voice
which shook with emotion.
Preserve Peace, He Insists
In the statement, Hitler insisted
that Germany's purpose in rearming
was to preserve peace for herself and
the rest of Europe.
The German government, he said,
in order to preserve the security and
honor of the German people saw it.

Got to Hare Something

TINE danger of this at such a
Il time is that when plan and

confused. the unofficial plan

Among the most remarkable phe-
nomena Of this depression are the
vast unofficial organizations set up
through the radio by Father Cough

1,150O00. The economic loss from these deaths and
Injuries is estimated at 81 58O0O0000 Some idea of
the extent Of carnage on the highways and streets
OF this country may be gained by recalling that the
dead and injured in auto accidents last year equaled
the combined populations Of Nevada Wyoming

sweep the land if some foreign foe penetrated the

of four states.

tic foe. A study by the National Safety Council
shows that those states with standard auto license

such laws suffered increases ranging from II to 40

A WOMAN'S VIEWPOINT
By Mrs. Walter Ferguson

T COMMEND to all husbands the excellent advice
of the Alabama man who lately celebrated his
tlftieth wedding anniversary.
If you want married happiness let the woman
have her way" he said No philosopher ever spoke
wiser or subter words. Probably none believes them
to DE wholly true but there is enough sense in them
to merit our serious consideration.
This man, would guess, made habit of letting
his wife have her way in all uninportant matters. 1t
is on this foundation stone that happy marriage
rests although is equally vital that when great de-
cisions are to be made the man must make them
Few women want their judgment to be the decid-
ing factor when big events are faced But they most
certainly do like to have the sayso about how meals
shall be served and houses furnished and when the
fall cleaning is to be done. They demand certain
amount of authority in the social plans for the fam
ily we'll as supreme control over recreatonal and
domestic affairs.
Here is the little snag over which the average man
trips oftenest He has heard that women like to be
bosSed, that they prefer masterful men, so he pro-
ceedS to be nasterful, and sometimes loses good
wife while he's at it.
Women do prefer masterful men, there's music to
them in the stamp Of the masculine foot when it
orders them to pack up their buds and follow to
new business position. When the masters voice

Juniors welfare is at stake they welcome dominant

DUCE'S VISION-1927 AND NOW

MORE significant perhaps than anything said re-
- Gently by Mussoni or his spokesman, Baron
Aloisi is what Mussolini declared in May, 1927-sg-
nflcant in that it shows the scope of his dream of
empire and the time which he forecast for that
dream to come true.
Speaking then before the Chamber of Deputies
IN an appeal for an increase in Italian birth rate,
saying If we decrease in numbers we will never Gre
ate an empire but become colony" Mussolini con-
cluded with an expression of his vision in the follow
ing language:
Hence we must at given moment be able t.
mobilize 100000 men thoroughly armed we must
strengthen our navy, while aviation must be on such
large scale and powerful that the noise of its
motors must surpass any other noise and the area of
the wings of airpanes must obscure the sun from
our land THEN BETWEEN 1885 and 1910. WHEN
WE SHALL REACH THE CRUCIAL POINT IN
EUROPEAN HISTORY, WE WILL BE ABLE TO
MAKE OUR VOICE HEARD AND SEE AT LAST
OUR RIGHTS ACKNOWLEDGED. This preparation

for the Italian American soprano because of her

Berlin's acceptance of Miss Giannini attests the

LAWS. ECONOMICS AND j..

IGNORING the fact that the Liberty Leagues
kangaroo Court" had already assumed juris-
diction in such matters the United States Supreme
Court has agreed review two major New Deal laws
which 90 deep into our economic and legal system
1t should hand down its decision in the AshWander
IVA case and the Hoosac AAA processing-tax case
before Congress meets in January.

of 100 acres of cotton land has come in to ask per-
mission to sue for annulment of the Bankhead Cot

Since the Supreme Court already has on its docket
a case challenging this act and in the light OF Gov.
Talmadges recent anti-New Deal fulminations, this
suit appears to been prompted more by political
than constitutional considerations
While the nine high justices were opening the
court to tests of New Deal policies which may fix the
tenor of the next political campaign, they kept the
doors closed to two cases raising the issue of per-
sonal liberties Which brings discussion to the
