FARLEY CLOSES
ON DEFENSE
MEASURES

Seeking effective legislation to
prevent war, and at the same
time advocating an adequate ma
tional defense strong enough to
meet any situation that may
arise, delegates to the Twelfth
Women's Patriotic Conference
on National Defense. which con-
cluded their three-day session
here yesterday in the Mayflower
Hotel. adopted more than 20
measures toward these ends.
Among the outstanding meas
ures to be asked Of Congress by
the organization are:
That the Government maintain
a strict neutrality policy; that
the Army be strengthened by in
creasing the enliStments in the
Regular Army. the National
Guard, the Reserve Officers
Training Corps in schools and
colleges, the Citizens Military
Training Camps and the con-
tinued modernization of arms
and equipment; that the Aviation
Corps be strengthened by Suffi-
cient funds for modernization OF
al units and tho continuation Of
a program to obtain as rapidly as
possible the construction of a
Navy second to none.
The organization was on record
as placing itself in favor of the
withdrawal from recognition by
the United States of the Union of
Socialist Soviet Republics; that
aliens seeking United States cit
izenship be denied if there is any
doubt about their willingness to
bear arms in defense of this coun-
try against all enemies; that the
subverSive youth movement be
driven out of schools and colleges;
opposition to any change in the
status of the R. o. T. c. in land
grant colleges and universities;
that sufficient appropriations con-
tinue to aSign to duty with the
regular Army for one year LOCO
Reserve officers for practical train
ing; that a system of identified.
ton be established in the interest
of an effective control Of all aliens
in this country.
