Praised in Paris
By United Press

By UntteG Press
PARIS, Jan. 4.-President Roose-
velt's message to Congress made a
most favorable impression in French
governmental quarters. A spokes-
man said of it today:
1T is a call to reason and calm,
addressed to peoples who desire to
trouble peace. Such people under
go the moral condemnation of a
formidable power"
The speech, the spokesman said,
was sure to receive the general ap-
probation of France. Particularly
striking to French minds was the
Presidents reference to the small
minority of nations that seek to
disturb present territorial limits.
Newspapers reacted favorably to
the Presidents criticisms of dicta-
torships.

if ever a challenge was laid down

Tammany Democrat Critical
Rep. Martin J. Kennedy. a Tam
many Democrat of New York, was
more sharply critical than we're OPP
position party spokesman.
He said:
I think it was a wiShy waShy
speech without anything construc-
tive in it. 1t sounded to me like
a speech written by the Brain
Trust to mislead Congress. The
whole speech was for public con-
sumption and appealed to the low
est instinct rather than the lofty
ideals. I expected a masterpiece
but I listened to claptrap.'
Fletcher Is Caustic
Chairman Henry P. Fletcher Of
the Republican National Commit
tee said:
The speech was political har-
angue. The Republican party will
submit the New Deal and all its
works to the whole people in the
coming campaign. and We have no
fear of the verdict"
Those bits. typical of the COM
ment and conversation in Capitol
corridors as the elect ticket holders
scuffed away from the first big POI
litical occasion of the New Year,
are being repeated and elaborated
today into argument and discussion.
From coast to coast the speech

pute will flame.

She was met by her husband, and
they went home after dining. They
were reused from their sleep by a
telephone call asking the doctor to
attend sick child.
The voice which called was that
of 6. woman, the switchboard oper-
ator at the apartment hotel said.
Last night residents noticed an
auto on which the lights had been
burning all day. A 16-year- boy
investigated and found the body of
DR.. Peacock in the back of his large
sedan, crumpled on the floor and
his coat thrown over it.
Address Is Checked
Police learned there was no such
person at the address the woman
gave when she summoned DR.. Pea
cock. He had made notation on a
pad by his telephone, &c. Smale,
6438 North Whipple-st."
Edith Cecil, a maid working in the
vicinity said she passed the car
about 100 yesterday morning and
heard a man and woman arguing
violently in the front seat. A man
who also passed the scene at 2:30
said he saw couple in the car.
But second man told police that
he passed the car at midnight and
there was no one in it. Since coro-
ners physicians estimated that DR.
Peacock was dead before 1870 a. m
yesterday, police believe, that the
killers sat in his car quarreling as
his body lay in the back.
Put Up Fierce Fight
The motive is obscure. Police
learned $40 had been taken from
DR.. Peacock's pockets, but his watcI
and jewelry were unmolested. His
medicine case had been ransacked
and two bottles were missing, but
neither contained narcotics. None OF
his hypodermic needles was touched
There was evidence that he had
put up a furious fight. His hand
was caught in the door as the
killers showed his body into the back
seat after beating and shooting him
DR.. Peacock served the United
States Army Intelligence and Brit
ish Navy Intelligence during the
World War. He graduated from
Knox College and Rush Medical
School, and had an excellent pro-
fessional reputation.
Police planned to examine his files
and question his associates.

NEUTRAL PLAN

opponent of Italy's aspirations
Hence, they summed up, Italy had
no alternative, acting quickly and
helping herself.
AS to the neutrality bill, it was
even called favorable. Though Off
Gals would not comment for publ
cation pending receipt of the text,
they made no effort to hide their
satisfaction. The bill was about all
that optimists had hoped for. It
was pointed out that it did not
adopt League of Nations policies,
and that if Italy were able to buy
from the United States even normal
quantities of auxiliary war mate
rials which the League might de-
ny her, it might be possible for the
East African expeditionary force tc
carry on.

LONDON, Jan. 4.-Great Britain
and Europe saw the United States
aligned firmly today with the ma.
tionS of the world standing against
militarism and eXpansionism.
President Roosevent's comments il
his message to Congress on warlike
eXpanSioniSt countries as opposed
to democracies, we're seen as directed
openly at Germany, Japan and Fas-
cist Italy. They were seen also as
forwarding measurably the possibil.
ity of an oil embargo against Italy
1t was recognized that the United
States is determined to make ne
entangling alliances.
See League Strengthened
Britons and Europeans also saw
psychological encouragement fol-
non~aggressive powers which
though admitting the possibility Of
peaceful revision of treaties ano
frontiers, must exercise strong dip
lomatic influence in strengthening
the stand of such big nations as
Britain, France and Russia, as vel
as the weaker nations which face
the danger of possible attack.
The Presidents reference to ma
tons which seek to rectify injustices
springing from former wars, 81
seeking outlets, was considered tc
leave the door open for revision Of
treaties.
AS for the Italian Ethiopian cri-
sis, the Presidents reference to the
American need for well-orderec
neutrality was expected to have i'm
mediate effect in stimulating League
penalties against Italy.
London Comment Meager
1t was admitted that the
American neutrality bill offered the
possibility not of a complete en-
barge on such essential commodi-
ties as oil but merely of limitation
But that is about all the League
ever really hoped for.
Despite Italian assertions, man,
believe that restriction of American
oil imports would enable the League
quickly to immobilize normal Ital-
ian life.
1t seems increasing plain that the
penalties already in effect against
Italy are hurting her.
AS the speech reached London
late last night, there was not ex-
tensive newspaper comment.
The News Chronicle, organ of the
Liberal Party, said: THE Presi-
dents lead should notably ease the
Leagues vital task in pressing for
ward the oil embargo. President
Roosevelt has spoken a resounding
word for free people everywhere.

The Supreme Court, which soon

not invited to hear President
Roosevelt's defense last night

prices committee.

and coke rates was expressed after
an address by D. j. Angus, local
engineer and director of the Citi-
