ing. Consistently he has refused
He feels that he shouldn't do it.
There's another thing those who
talk with him have discovered:

ground. The tall, distinguished fig

classic head and setting off fea-
lures made for a sculptor, has be.

What can we say to nations
which, like Japan, need room to

cation for Italy'S conquest of Ethi-
opia? How can the United States,
which became great through con-
quest, through war, deny to lesser
nations the right to employ the
same methods to find outlets for
their people? What lies beyond
the horizon Of this generation s
events? Are not wars inevitable
as nations rise and fall? Can the
world ever be static? Must nation

READY OR ACTION
With his SO are chin resting in
his left hand, Cordell Hull would
sweep aside all such questions with
a gesture of his right. and then
proceed with fingers punched and
calm eyes undisturbed to expound
his own ideas.
He is thinking in terms Of the
United StateS-a nationalist to
the core of him. He is willing to
cooperate with other peaceable ma
tions to preserve the peace Of the
world. If necessary he is willing
to do whatever has to be done to
deal with outlaws among nations

Depressing!
Sunday, Wednesday
Are the Days

BOSTON, Oct. 81 QNS0.
Wednesday and Sunday are the
two most depressing days Of the
week, according to DR.. Merrill
Moore, Boston psychiatrist.
DR.. Moore, who has been study
ing suicide causes and effects since
1915, claims that self-destruction
is a disease and can be cured, if
properly treated.
Besides revealing that suicide, as
a disease, can be cured, the psy-
chiatrist revealed that the medical
world, through the study Of the ag-
gressive social homologues Of sui
eide, might bring about a crime
less and warleSS world.
DR.. Moore recently wrote an ex-
hauStive paper on 1,147 cases of
attempted suicide and since pub
lication of the article on a national
scale he has been swamped with
letters from people contemplating
taking their own lives and asking
his help and advice.

MINDED OWN BUSINESS

If that doesn't mean anything
in the foreign offices of other
world powers, perhaps this story
will:
In the Tennessee hills when Cor
dell Hull was a young man the
hill-billy desperadoes would come
into his mountain village on Sat
urday night, steamed up a bit on
corn liquor, and if they happened
to see a citizen running down
street would as often as not jump
behind the corner of house and
take a pot shot at him. as they
would at a rabbit. It was a favor
ite sport, and made the man run
faster-if he didn't drop in his
tracks. But if a man walked down
his own side Of the street minding
his own business and expecting
other people to mind theirs, the
boys from the hills would let him
alone and there wouldn't be any
trouble.

SICK LION GETS
ANTIDOTE DOSE.
WHEN He ROARS
Zoo Keepers Use Trick
To Save Rufus Life

LOS ANGELES, Cal, Oct. 21
(CTPSO. - Unable to handle
Rufus, sick lion, within his cage,
Ron C. Gibson, superintendent of
Griffith Park municipal zoo, and
Assistant Keeper Frank Crisman
spent hours using strategy to get
the beasts mouth open so they
could toss pintS of poisoning anti
dote down his throat.
Rufus, normally $50 pounds in
weight, and said to be the finest
North African black-maned lion in
captivity in America, came down
with mysterious illness two weeks
ago when he stopped eating his
customary is pounds Of raw beef
daily.
Five days of violent illness fol-
lowed until Zoo Veterinarians Cook
and Carr diagnosed his illness as
poisoning from something fed him,
and worked out an antidote.
The treatment consisted of two
raw eggs in a pint of goats milk
daily. The problem of feeding
this to Rufus finally was worked
out when Gibson took position IN
front of the cage and CriSman
maddened the beast by prodding
him with an iron bar.
When Rufus came to the cage
to roar, he not only profited by
the exercise, but by the application
of the goats milk which Gibson
hurriedly sloshed down his gaping
throat.
The turning point Of the illness
came yesterday, and today Rufus
gets two pounds of raw beef, grad
ually getting back to his daily Is

Secretary of State
Sits in Hot Spot
BY THEODORE HUNTLEY

A mild-mannered Southern gen
tleman with the eyes and brow of
a thinker sits today in the hottest
spot in the United States. bar
none.
His voice is seldom raised above
conversational tone. His speech
is never hurried. His words are
so carefully chosen, his state
ments so hedged with caution
that irritated critics say he can
call a spade everything but q
spade.
CAN CALL SPADES
But don't let that fool you. 1t
is still a spade. Cordell Hull, Sec
retary of State, knows it's spade.
And within the quiet room from
which he directs Americas course
in world affairS-when he is not
in some foreign capital directing
it at the scene of action-he can
call it a spade. With trimmings.
A friend asked him the other
day what kind of country he
thought we would be living in 10
years from now.
That depends on the kind of
people we have in it," said this
Tennessee mountaineer. IF we
still have the courage and hardi-
ness and initiative that made
the country what it is-the kind
that sent men out to carry civil
ization to the wilderness, and
sent the early New EnglanderS
to the sea in their own ships, to
carry our trade all over the
world-we will get along all
right. But if we are going to
develop into a people who live
on handouts and look to the
Government for everything, and
who won't fight even if there is
something to fight about, E. !,
the country won't be worth liv-
ing in"

Cordell Hull, comes from "back

part of their training. But this
scion of Colonial stock knows the
law and customs and necessities

TELLS STORY OF
HONOR KILLING
ReenaCts Scene After
Describing Meeting
Bv DOROTHY KILGALLEN

NEW BRUNSWICK, N. j., Oct.
81 G.N.SD-Peggy brennan told
her story today.
In an hours dramatic recital
she traced the history Of her luck
less relationship with Paul Reeves,
her seduction at his hands, her
desperation at the discovery of ap-
preaching motherhood, and her
final act of retribution, which she
called self-defense and which the
State of New Jersey has called
murder.
WEEPS ON STAND
Once she collapsed in a frenzy
of weeping during her testimony
and there was delay while she
fought for and gained Self-control.
But throughout most Of the Or
deal she displayed a remarkable
calm.
why did you shoot Paul
Reeves?' her attorney asked.
Il was afraid he was going to
attack me again" she said. He
was crouched there in his house,
naked, clutching at me. He was
breathing heavily. 1t was awful"
She had gone to his home to
plead for aid in her predicament.
She said she found, instead of the
suave alleged Seducer who had
scraped a sidewalk acquaintance,
a nude, seX-crazed man.
TELLS OF MEETING
"He was lying on his couch
naked when I went in," Peggy
continued. He grabbed for me-"
will you come down from the
stand and show the jury how he
was standing?"
To the amazement of the jury
the 20-year-old girl came down and
stood in an ape-like crouch.
