 Oslo, Aug. 20--tUP) Leon Trotzs ky testified in police court here toe day that he maintained correB' pondence with political leaders in France and other nations who were sympathetic with hB views. He was allowed asylum hl Norway on condition he would take no part in politics anywhere. Trot2ky appeared 10 testify against Six naziB who al- 1egOdly entered his homo two weeks ego, disguised as policemen, and stole some Of his correspondence, Among the papers, 1t iS understood, was . copy Of Q letter he wrote mentioning two American commun. ist leaders "Eric and Abern," Y The police station was under heavy guard as the exilcd bolshcvik leader arrived. Authorities appar- entity feared that he might be at. tackled by fascist8 or by adherentS of Joseph 9talin, his arch. enemy.

After leaving the trial in c police car, Trotzky called on the minister Of justice. It B under. stood they discussed the more stringent conditions under which he will Dc allowed to remain in Nors way until December l8, the end Of the term for which he was granted asylum here.
 Immigration authorities recently decided that Trotzky already had violated the conditions or his asy. 4iiIm and must leave the country. The ministry Of justice, however, Overruled them and decided he might remain here for the rest Of hlS term provided he accept even 2 gterner rules forbidding his poiiti- { cal activity.

 Observers commented on the iEl. timate approach to the drouth problem adopted by the president when he motored to tho weather. beaten homes of two AgriculturiSts about 20 miles from Bismarck.
 He asked the first farmer, ]. j.. Boehme about his acreage, crops, water supply and cattle.
 Leaning from the tonneau of an open car, MT. Roosevelt, his face Btreaked with dust from the road queried:
 "what about your crop prospects this yeAr2"
 Boehme, rcd faced, referred to him aS president" instead of tho customary MT. PreSldent," He TO. piled in c strong German accent:
 "Everything burned up, haven't harvested Q thing"

 From Boehme'B place, Mir. RooBOs welt visited the more loquaclouS Mike Holman who received him in the farm yard surrounded not only by his wife and children but by turkeys, chickens, two dogs and . calf.
 How many acres have yous" Mir. Roosevelt asked.
 "f have i0e."
 "Woil, I am glad to see you have turkeys and chickens too" the president observed, looking around,

 Some Cheer for Democrats
 Worries of the democratic high command aren't shared by all, ei. ther. Some insist that this election will be out of the politlcians' hands, that in the assembly elections of lDSO, when Tammany was relatively inactive and republicans stressed the New Deal Issue, the people of the metropolis registered and flocked to the polls in tremendous numbers to vote democratic.
 According Co this theory, Che Than on Che street" is aroused and will come to bat for Roosevelt without being herded tO thO polls by TammAny. And Tammany has % many important local political contests Of its own that lt can't amofd Co "lle down" this year,
 It is also true that democratic political bosses in the bOrOuKhs outside Manhattan-Ed Flynn of

 The fight in New York between Landon and Roosevelt may be SO close, in fact, that it will bo de- cided by the trends of the next few weeks.

He tore up the wooden floor and started 6 fire in Q milk can. The smoke was ins sufferAbie and it had to Do put out. Bryan made the other children sing and shout. He forced them to walk up and down and jump about. When anyone showed any sign of gleepis ness, he was slapped awake. Bryan even gave up his own SheepSkin coat to keep his companions warm.
 When reBcuers broke through the drifts, they found five children dead, but i0 alive, thanks to Bryan. His fame spread overnight. As soon as he had recovered from his prIvas tons, secret service men came to Denver and took him to Washing. ton, where he was the guest Of President Herbert Hoover in the White House. Cities on route vied with one another in the extSAvAs gance of their greetings. He returned to Denver to the blare Of bands and state and city officials were ct the station to greet him.

 Manufacturer Helpful
 Recently local manufacturers promiged to absorb B many men from relief roles as they possibly could. It B natural that they OK. pect the cooperation Of the men who are transferred and If the men fail to give this cooperation it Is quite possible that employ fnent managers in local factories will Dc less willing to take on WPA men. Another slant on the Bitua. ton was brought to light this morning when 1t was said that some Of the WPA men do not wish to work in factories because their pay checks, which cannot be at. tached when they are on relief roles, can be attached if they are transferred.
 No RaCketccrS Wanted
 Tn all justice to the relief role worker who B in debt, it can be r:sdily assumed that the man B in z tough spot WPA ofilciaB said they realized this situation.

Munitions Embargoes and
Toy Weapons Manufacture

To the Editor Of The Star:
Some time ago the administration en-
bargOed export of war material. This
embargo was to stop all wars, but foreign
countries now at war must have found
arms elsewhere. Anyhow they are in
war hot and heavy. which proves that
one country forbidding manufacture and
shipping OF war munitions has no effect
as preventive.
Why not remove that embargo, tell
factories and shops to get busy and
make weapons of war from toy pistol and
bowie knife for the children to cannon
and warships for men and women. Might
just as well do this and see our factories
boil over with orders from abroad.
There is only one way to prevent war
and that is to always be ready for war.
Deprive men and women of manufac-
tured munitions of war and they revert
to cave tactics, settling disputes with
rocks and clubs arm forced.
OF course, the crock and club" dis
poses of only dozens where modern i'm
plements would dispose of thousands, but
in the prolonging of the war, like the
crusades of old, or the Trojan War, the
cause is glazed over in lapse of time.
Parents nowadays buy toy guns and
knives for their little boy, clothe him
in cowboy suit, strap on the tiny war
implements and tell him to 60 out and
get busy. He does. He finds COM
panions in plenty equipped the same as
himself and they gather in swarmS.

Bows For Bucks.

Recent news items from the Eastern
Seaboard and the Northern Midwest offer
a strange contrast and, to the conserva-
zionist, the sportsman and the general
public, food for thought. A number of
prominent citizens from the mid-Atlantic
States, some Of them members of an
exclusive sporting club, have been found
guilty Of and punished for variety of
infractions of the game laws. These range
from failure to affix Federal stamp to a
permit to shooting over baited waters,
and include the use of unlawful forms
Of firearms and of live decoys.
Out in Wisconsin special preseason
of seven days has been declared in two
counties for hunters who use the bow
and arrow for deer, and no fewer than 80
sportsmen-and these all well worthy of
that title-have registered to try their
luck and their skill. Already one man
has brought in buck weighing $50
pounds slain by that method. These men
get their chance at game before the
gunfire of later hunters has depleted
and frightened the antlered trophies.
Their take" is comparatively small, but
think of the thrill that comes from such
