CLUB WOMEN
DISCUSS WAR
ON RADICALS

Discussion of methods of com
batting Communism and Other
"isms," together with a declara
ton that neutrality bills pending
in Congress are halfway meas
ures, held the interest Of the
annual midwinter meeting OF the
board of directors of the General
Federation of Women's Clubs to-
day.
Women, gathered here from all
over the country, at the fedora
tons headquarters, 1874 N St.
N. W., were considering in off
the-record" conversations a recon-,
mendation to the organization
yesterday that unceaSing war
should be waged against foreign
radicalism by the two million club
women of the United States. The
proposal came in report read to
the meeting by Mrs. John l..
Whitehurst' of Baltimore, chair
man of the education department.
Neutrality Proposals Nil
Pending neutrality measures
were criticized by Representative
Josh Lee CD of Oklahoma and
DR.. Charles G. Fenwick, professor
of political science at Bryn Mawr
College.
In place of current policies, Mr..
Lee declared the United States
should control preparation for
war by requiring muntion makers
to operate under a Federal Ii
cense system; should refuse to
send a military force into a
foreign country to protect priv,
ate investments: should equalize
the burdens by a universal draft
law that will conscript money
and materials as we'll as men,
and enact tax laws that will re-
cover for the Government 100
per cent of all war profits.
DR.. Fenwick, declared that
neither of the two neutrality
bills now before Congress go
far enough"
At yesterdays sessions, Mrs.
WhitehurSt declared:
"Club women must join
forces with all agencies work
ing to preserve our democracy.
1t is useless to try to combat
the propaganda of the foreign
radical alone. Every educa-
tional method possible should
be used in cooperation to
stamp out radicalism.
FOR CHILDREN'S SAKE
"Scrutinize the teachers Of
your children and your neigh
bOrs' children. Do not per.
NIT advocates of foreign radi-
calism, under the guiSe of free
speech, liberal thought and
what-nOt to break down the
confidence your children have
in their Government.
I'VE must stimulate the two
million. organized club women
to create their own honest
propaganda to defeat the
propaganda of the foreign
radicals who are working to
break down our Democratic
form OF Government.
Democracy in this chaotic
era can be preserved only by
educating the people. De-
mocracy in education and dicta-
tOrship in Government cannot
live together within the bound
aries of any nation.
at is not my purpose at this
time to discuss the question as
to whether it is best to compel
children to salute the flag or
our teachers to take the oath
of allegiance, but what should
perturb and shock US is the bit
terness displayed on the part of
citizens of these. United States
in protesting against doing
something which in the past
every true American was proud
to do"
Directors of the federation
closing a five-day session tomor-
row, also heard DR.. Walter Jaeger
of Georgetown University urge
the establishment of school for
training governmental officials
as a means of combating Com
nauniSm and Fasclsm.

Beneath the high vaulted cell
ing of the great choir of the Ca
thedral of st. Peter and st. Paul,
official Washington gathered to-
day to attend a memorial service
for his late Majesty, George v
of the British Empire.
To the left of the chancel,
filled with the purple-cassocked
choir and clergy of the diocese,
sombre in their black stoles, was
a great wreath of pink and white
carnations, a tribute from the
President and Mrs. Roosevelt,
while on the opposite side was
a floral offering of Easter lilies
from the Secretary of State and
Mrs. Hull.
More lilies were on the altar
where the Seven-branched cande-
labrum were lighted. An Ameri-
can flag stood on one side OF
the chancel and opposite was the
English flag, while high on the
walls were displayed the flags Of
the various States.

Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt en-
tered the cathedral on the arm OF

Work relief officials today esti-
mated that approximately 100000
of the 3,51S.191 war veterans eli
Sible for the bonus were on relief

While definite figures were not
available, work relief officials said
that approximately that number
had been dependent either on the
Federal or local community relief
organizations.
WPA Administrator Harry l..
Hopkins said that while obviously
veterans receiving the bonus would
be questioned as to their eligibility
for work relief jobs" their status
would have to be adjusted on the
basis of actual need.
Officials said that where vet

len, governor of Louisiana and
leader of the powerful political
party that the late Senator Huey
P. Long had built, died at the
governors mansion here this
morning at 10:40 a. m.
DR.. Clarence Lorto, chief physi-
clan, said death was a result of
a hemorrhage of the throat. Gov
ernor Allen was first stricken
early this morning when blood
vessel burst in his throat. Death
followed several hours later.
Caused by Strain
Doctors expressed the belief
that the recent strenuous political
campaign in which Allen was
elected to fill out the unexpired
Senate term of Senator Long, con-
tributed to the cause of his death.
Today's stroke came suddenly.
The Governor was preparing to
leave the mansion for the State
capitol when a vessel in his throat
suddenly burst. He fell to the
floor unconscious. A staff of phySi-
clans was Immediately summoned
and an unsuccessful effort was
made to stem the flow of the blood
in his throat.

designate to fill Longs unexpired

DR.. Lorio, who was one of the
physicians in attendance with the
late Senator Long when he died
in Lady of the Lake Sanitarium
last September from bullet
wound, explained that every ef-
fort had been made to stem the
flow of blood but that Governor
Allen never rallied after his first
stroke.
Family at His Side
Though the governor had pre-
viously been in ill-health and at
one time his resignation as chief
executive was considered immi-
nent, Allen had been enjoying
good health when he was stricken
this morning.
Mrs. Allen, along with other
members of the family were with
the governor when death came.
Prominent leaders of the powerful
nOIitical machine. however. were
absent from the capitol at the
time.
Most of them, including Lieut..
Gov. James A. Noe, when advised
of the governors death imme-
diately left for the capitol.

Of sailors prayers, muffled drums
and mourning music Of England,

1t was music made even Sweeter
by the tears of sorrow Of his
people, bidding him farewell.
At AIS p. m. the Archbishop
Of Canterbury committed the late
beloved naonarch's body to its fl

was lowered through an opening

NIGHT SCR|MMAGE
FOR THE WO[FPACK
- @---@sss=ss= ]
Remainder of Drills For
Week at N. c. State Col
lege Under Lights

College Station, Raleigh, Sept. %
A scrimmage under the lights is sche-
duled tonight for the N. G. State Col
lege Wolfpack as Coach Hunk And
erson shapes the Pack for it's strug-
gle Saturday night with Davidson
College at o'clock in Riddick Sta
dunn.
The remainder of drills this week
will be staged under the floodlights
in order to have the Wolves accli-
mate themselves to nocturnal play
ing conditions. The game is the Sec
ond for them this fall, but will be
their first night test. Davidson open
ed their schedule last Saturday with
a night game with Duke at Green's
borO.
Before the Wolfpack can meet the
Wildcats on even terms, Hunk And
erson and his assistants, Ed Kosky
and Mike Koken, must have the
Wolves overcome several weaknesses
that were uncovered in the Elon
game Saturday.
For one thing, the Wolves will have
to block better if their backs are to
pierce the big Davidson line for any
consistent gains. The Davidson wall
is one of the heaviest, strongest, and
smartest the Presbyterian school has
turned out. It is headed by Captain
big Six Johnson, left guard.
States passing attack must be i'm
proved. The Wolfpack may have to
use the air often and must have bet
success than they did against Elon
when seven passes were tried and
none completed.
The final outcome of aSturday's
game may depend upon the extra
points after touchdown. Here again
| State will have to show Improvement
as it missed both of it's attempts
| against Elon.
| Coach Anderson says the State
Davidson game will be as thrilling
as the Duke-Colgate game aSturday
afternoon. He says State and David
son are evenly matched and with
Teeny Lafferty running for the Wild
cats and Eddie Berlinski sprinting fol
the Wolves, will put on a grid show
| that will rank with the best of thu
season.
