us. AVIATOR IS
 FACING DEATH
Being Court Martialed in Spain By Nationalist
 Army Officers
BY REYNOLDS PACKARD United Press Staff Correspondent

United Press Staff Correspondent)
 Salamanca, Spain, Oct. 6.-(UP) = Harold Y. Dahl, American aviator captured by the Mathematics while fighting for the LoyaliSts, went on trial for his life before Q court martial today.
 The prosecuting attorney demand cd the death penalty.
 Dahl's pretty wife of six months waited anxiously in Cannes, France. Had 1t not been for her, he might already have been shot. Her tear- full appeal to Qeneralissimo Fran. cisco Franco not to destroy the only happiness I have. ever known" has saved him from preemptory execu- ton.
 Six judges will determine his fate.
 Dahl, a 2e.year old pilot from Campaign, I'll, probably will not learn his sentence until several hours after the court martial is over The judges, . colonel and five cap- tains in the Nationalist army, will retire and deliberate. The sentence then must be approved by various military and judicial authorities be. fore 1t becomes final.
 High Nationalist sources said that under this procedure, there was . possibility that Dahls sentence, il 1t is death, might be commuted through the personal intervention oi 0eneralissirno Francisco Franco. Dressed in new khaki trousers and blue coat, the American flyer ap- peared composed aS he sat with arms folded, staring over the judges rostrum at . picture of the gen- eralissimo - the only man who may be able to save his life.
 Beside him sat three Russian avi' ators who also were accused of re- bellion against the Nationalist pro. visional government. The prosecution hammered ct the point that Dahl left Madrid fol Paris, where he underwent an opera. ton for appendicitis, but returned to Lcyalist Spain.
 The defense's appeal was based or
 i. That Dahl did not enter til, war as c Communist but merely fl order to find employment. It wa explained to the court that the com. raercial aviation field in the Unitet Htateg was overcrowded.
 2. That he tpnderstood he wa to be technical adviser to thl Loyaiist aviation ministry mot CoTnbattant.

 World Peace In Chicago Talk

principles of humanity. It is true that they involve definite viola tions of agreements, and especial ly of the covenant of the League of Nations, the Briand Kellogg pact and the nine-power treaty. But they also involve problems of world economy, world security and world humanity.
 It is true that the moral con- sciouSness of the world must recognize the importance of re- moving injustices and well found- ed grievances but at the same time 1t must be aroused to the cardinal necessity of honoring sanctity of treaties, of respecting the rights and liberties of others and of putting an end to acts of international aggression.
 It seems to be unfortunately true that the epidemic of world lawlessneSS is spreading.
 When an epidemic of physical disease starts to spread, the com- munity approves and joins in @ quarantine of the patients in or. der to protect the health of the community against the spread of the disease.
 It is my determination to pur. sue e policy Of peace and to adopt every practicable measure to avoid involvement in war. It ought to be inconceivahle that In this modern era, and in the face of experience, any nation could be so foolish and ruthless as to run the risk of plunging the whole world into war by invading and violating in contravention of solemn treaties, the territory of other nations that have done them no real harm and which are too weak to protect themselves ade- quately. Yet the peace of the world and welfare and security of every nation is today being threat ened by that very thing.
 No nation which refused to ex. ercise forebearance and to respect the freedom and rights of others can long remain strong and retain the confidence and respect of other nations. No nation ever loses It's dignity or good standing by consolidating its differences, and by exercising great patience with, and consideration for, the rights of other nations.
 War is @ contagion, whether 1t be declared or undeclared. It can engulf states and peoples remote from the original scene of hosti- lities. We are determined to keep out of war, yet we cannot insure ourselves against the disastrous effects of war and the danger of Involvement. We are adopting such measures as will minimize our risk of involvement but we cannot have complete protection in @ world of disorder in which con- iidence and security have broken down if civilization is to survive the principles of the prince of peace must be restored. Shattered trust between nations must be revived.
 Most important of all, the will for peace on the part of peace loving nations must express itself to the end that nations that may be tempted to violate their agree ments and the rights of others will desist from such Q cause. cause. There must be positive endeavors to preserve peace.
 America hates war. America hopes for peace. Therefore, Amer ica actively engages in the search for peace.

JAP DEFENSE
 STOPPED SHORT
Desperate Chinese COun- ter Ofiense Endangers
 Japanese Key Points
By EARL LEAF

By EARL LEAF
 United Press stan COrrespondent)
 Shanghai, Oct. 6.-(UP)- Chinese troops, lighting desperately, stopped the Japanese general offensive short today and countered with Q rain of big gun shells on Japanese key points.
 The Chinese lines cracked yester- day. But when the Japanese went over the top again at dawn today, following an all night bombardmetlt, they met with Q stone wall defense.
 Chinese troops with machine guns and hand grenades were dotted thickly in the open marshy fields north of the city, and the Japanese storm lines crumpled under Q dead- ly fire. It was the same in the sdualid alleys of the Chapei-N North railroad station sector of Shanghai, ct the north end of the line, where the fighting was hand to hand.
 Expert Chinese artillerymen SCOT. ed direct hits on the Japanese navy headquarters area of the Hongkew section, which is the Japanese con- trolled section of the International settlement, and their anti-aircraft guns brought down Q Japanese bombing plane near TaEang.
 It was apparent that for the mos ment an advance of the Japanese infantry was impossible, and the ars tillerymen took on the duel.
 While the Chinese poured shells into the Hongkew area and the Jap. anese lines north of the city, Jap. anese artillery and naval guns cen- tered their fire on the Chapel area and Pootung, across the Whanepoo river from the International Settle. ment.
 It was evident that the Chinese guns were expertly manned. All morning, the Chinese gunners and Japanese aviatorS played hide and seek. The Chinese gunners' guns would open up and blast the Jap- anese lines until Japanese ohserva- ton and bombing planes rose to seek them. The Chinese guns would cease fire suddenly and complete ly. The Japanese would drop their bombs blindly and return to base. Then the Chinese guns would open again.
 A Japanese spokesman, somewhat less jubilant than were Japanese spokesmen yesterday, admitted that his men had been stopped all along the Lotien- -Kiating highway, their principal objective.
 It was the same in the Shanghai sector, where Japanese navy men had charge of the offensive. The Japanese spokesman admitted there was no change in the lines there.
 A Chinese spokesman said that all Japanese attacks had been repulsed in the Liuhang and Kiangwan sec. tors. He said the Japanese seemed to be re-establishing their lines in the Shanghai sector for Q new ct. tack.
 During the early hours, the Jap. anese sent swift cutters out from their warships to rake the Pootung shore of the WhanBpoo with ma. chine gun fire, apparently fearing another attempt to mine and sink one of their ships.
 The American consulate general and American navy authorities an- nounced today that the navy trans port would sail for Kobe, Japan, October 19 and that then navy evac- uation of American citizens would end, as the Chaumont would pro. ceed to regular duties.

Father Coughlin Fires On Black Nomination
Calls It Monument to Roosevets Personal Stupidity; us. Senate Termed Rubber Stamp for New
 Deal Proposals

Royal Oak, Mich., Oct. S-(Up)- Rev. Charles D. Coughlin, announc- ing his return to the radio in week. ly Sunday sermons, was on record today as hoping the appointment of Justice Hugo L. Black would be 0 monument to President Roosevelt's personal stupidity"
 Tt Is my hope" the radio priest added, that Justice Black lives to be 200 years old ana occupies c seat on the supreme court until his death."
 Father Coughlin offered his com- ment on the Black issue and other topics in press interview in which all questions and answers were in writing. He read answers to report erS' questions page ct Q time.
 In his future radio sermons, the priest said he would not fail to dis cuss so-called political and economic questions upon which morality has Q bearing. He said such questions will deal with exploitation of the poor, concentration of wealth and systems of economies which enable these abuses to thrive" Father Coughlin said he would return to the air Oct. 3i for Q period of 2e weeks.
 His discussion of Justice Black occupied the major part of the in- terview.
 May he be a monument to the New Deal attempt to destroy iiade- pendence of the supreme court, of MT. Roosevelt's personal stupidity in appointing him, and of the U. &. seriate's tendency to rubber stamp practically all New Deal proposals" ," the priest said.
 "There is nothing alleged about Blacks Kian affiliations. He swore solemn oath to Almighty God before a flaming cross that he would exer. else hostility to Catholic, negro and Jew. Now he repudiates that oath as he takes e new oath to sustain the Consultation of the United States. a4
