Frances sharply worded COM
munication caused some surprise
in British officialdom, but a CO.

enforce withdrawal of volunteers
by threatening to open her borders

.DUNNER BACKS
CAPITALISM

Capitalism can never be de-
stroyed without simultaneously de-
stroying the free institutions of
democracy, DR.. Josef Dunner,
member of the Brookings Institute
and author of the recent novel
IF I Forget Three" said yesterday
at a meeting of the Civitan Club
at the Hotel Mayflower.
Discussing relationships and
democracies, he said that, while
the Facists and Communists states
are antagoniStic, the social orders
they put into practice are basically
similar.
Control in economic affairs, he
continued, necessarily would lead
to control in private affairs in a
sequence beginning with produc-
ton and completing itself in re-
Striction of the press, education
and the rights of workers to leave
one job for another. He added:
Preparation for war becomes
necessary as insurance against
internal conflicts. The war in
duStries have reached the point
where they are the basis of eco
nOmic prosperity. Preparations
for war must, therefore, be con-
tinued in order to maintain the
stability of the whole country,
and there may soon come day
when the risks Of war are no
greater than the risks of ObSOleS.

nous telegram declaring the
unionists might be ambuShed by
loyal Ford workers.
A crowd of several hundred
Ford workers were at the plant at
the time of the scheduled distribu-
ton, but unionists remained in
their west7side headquarters in
Detroit.
Tells of Beating
Reuther, in his testimony be-
fore the NLRB, said he had eau
toned unionists not to resort to
violence at the first union hand
bill distribution which resulted
in the riot May 26. He charged
he was set on by Ford employees
as he climbed an overpass over
a road leading to the Ford plant.
About 80 Dearborn policemen
were on hand today at the plant
at the hour set for the noW-can-
celled second distribution. Ford

In an effort to satisfy groups
from the West and South, Senator
Black CD of Alabama has. ad-
vanced the proposal that even If
the measure is written into law,
the wage and hours provisions may
not be imposed upon some indus
tries for a year or two.
The House Democratic Steering
Committee had Blacks proposal
under advisement, but -.ecided to
withhold action until the House
Labor Committee acts. There is
widespread opposition to the bill,
according to Chairman Jed john
son CD Of Oklahoma, OF the
House Steering Committee, who
said:
"While sponsors are willing to
modify the measure, / believe
that a majority Of the Steering
Committee oppose any action.
