Dartmouth was boasting the Eastern

yesterday beat Harvard, to O, and
knocked the Crimson out of chance
to tie the Big Green for the title.
Monroe Jubitz, Eli pitcher, gave
Harvard only four hits and was
backed by fine fielding and timely
hitting.
Yale and Harvard have another

they would create triple tie among
these two teams and Princeton for

Case Injury Slight.


Case, injured on the final play of
the game when he crashed into a
faucet jutting out from the rightfeld
fence while snatching Joe Kuhels
smash, expected to be back in the
lineup today despite a slight stiffen-
ing of his right leg. The cash is deep
but small.
Monte Weaver, who hasn't started
a game in three weeks, was to get his
chance today as Manager Harris con-
tinued his policy of exploring the
pitching situation among his second
stringers. He was to clash with Monty
Stratton.
The Mats will be idle Friday in ST.
Louis, playing double-header there
Sunday. Another off day will pop
up Monday, with the team travelling
toward Boston.
Kelley, incidentally, had not been
saved for q soft spot. Harris merely
allowed him to work himself into con-
dition and was convinced he was ready
for trial after an impressive relief
stretch in Cleveland. Henceforth he
will take regular turn.

fully carrying forward the program
OF principles underlying world order,
peace and economic restoration,
which I have fully summarized. Tho
success of this program Is indis-
pensable to the welfare and progress
and civilization of the human race.
For each and every nation the
establishment of these principles
throughout the world would bring
immense benefit, as any alternative
policy resting on force must bring
each and every one disaster.
Each nation has sincere stand
ing invitation to join in approval
and support Of this program of
principles. 1t would be an unspeak-
able calamity if any nation at this
crucial and critical time in the af-
fairs of men should further pursue
the opposing course of force and
military aggression. Here is pre-
sented the greatest single issue con-
fronting all peaceful nations. We
shall not lose sight of it for a mo-
ment as we grapple with .he vital
questions peculiar to this Hemis-
phere.
The worlds greatest need today is
that there be Created and main
tanned conditions which will give
to nations and to individuals peace
of mind and of spirit. Toward pro-
ducing those conditions. we must
strive with all our strength in every
fleld-political social, economic,
and moral. Only as favorable con-
ditions develop in all these fields.
will the way be open for a reversal
Of the present-day trend in mill
tary ornaments, which impose so
crushing burden upon the lives
of nations and individuals and
open before mankind the horrible
vista of marvellous civilization
crashing into ruin under the i'm
pact of period of all-destroying
warfare
| We of the Americas are for
tunate beyond words in being so
situated that we can make our
example and our influence a potent
factor in promotion OF conditions
in which there may be peace with
justice and with security. Nor do
we stand alone. There are in other
parts of the world powerful forces,
actual or latent, working toward
the same end.
We must not bring the labors of
this conference to conclusion
without providing a renewed basis
of hope and renewed determine
tion-not only for our own nations.
but for all other nations or groups
within nations, which, at times
against great odds and in the face
Of art-breaking difficulties, are
working for a better world.
Evening star., 1938-12-11

nations with each other as in our
internal relations. Happily, this
spirit has been present, although
1t has not always developed unin-
terruptedly along an upward trend.
Like all things human, it has had
its fluctuations. Disagreements and
controversies have arisen among us.
But they have remarkably seldom
been settled by the arbitrament of
violent conflict, in the form of either
military or Of other types of
coercion.
International relations in the
Western Hemisphere have not been
free from the paralyzing and dis
ruptive forces of narrow national
ism. But the operation of these
forces has been paralleled-and,
happily, increasingly overcome-by
the growth of solidarity, of COM
mon concern for peace and progress
in our relations with each other, by
strengthening of determination
to adjust by pacific means alone
whatever differences may arise
among us.
1t is not an accident that Ameri-
can nations have been peculiarly
interested in the development of
international law. Relationships
such as those which have been
steadily growing up among us are
impossible unless rules of inter-
national conduct are carefully de-
fined and unless such rules are
fully accepted and become govern
ing. That is the essence of civil
lied order in the international life
of the world.
Historically speaking, the devel-
opments which have briefly de-
scrlbed have not been peculiar to
the Western Hemisphere. For a
century and half the progress
OF human enlightenment and hu-
man freedom continued throughout
the world, overturning the bulwarks
OF tyranny and opening the way
Tor the establishment of demo-
cratic institutions and the assertion
OF human rights. Nor has the
earnest search for world order un-
der law been confined to any one
portion Of the globe.
The developments which have
taken place in the Western Hem
lsphere have been part of mighty
stream Of new ideas, new concepts.
new attitudes of mind and spirit
which has coursed and ramiied,
with differing degrees of vigor and
success, throughout the world. We
have made important contributions
to that stream and have, in turn.
been nourished by it.
Powerful Forces Challenge
Validity Of Principles.
Unfortunately, in recent wears.
powerful forces in some parts of
the world have challenged the valid
ity OF the primary and basic prin-
ciples upon the foundation of which
we and the rest of mankind have
been building the edifice of our
social organization and of our in
ternational life. Whatever outer
garments they may wear today,
these forces are not new in the ex-
perience of mankind. Funda-
mentally they are the same forces
that had for centuries held men in
bodily slavery and spiritual degree
dation and had impressed upon the
Evening star., 1938-12-11

quire also q vigorous program Of
positive action.
In an important measure, such a
program already exists. It Is the
fruitful result of inter- American
conferences held in the past and OF
the influence eXerted upon the life
Of our hemisphere by these periodic
exchanges of views and by the agree
ments which we reach on vital prob
lens. The conference in which we
are again assembled now as repre-
sentatives of the American nations
offers timely and precious oppor-
tunity for advancing and perfecting
this indispensable program Of assur-
ing the solidarity, security, inde-
pendence, prosperity and progress OF
the Americas and of making our in
dividual and joint contribution to
the peace and well-being of the
world.
Our conference must carry for
ward the work of building an endur-
ing structure of peace. 1t Is within
the power of the American nations
to furnish a conclusive demonstra-
ton that peace, based on justice,
law and cooperative effort, is un-
questionably feasible. To that end,
we must examine anew the existing
instruments of peace, by which we
are all bound to system OF pacific
settlement, and give our best thought
to every possible method of perfect
ing further the er-American ma
chinery OF peace.
Must Seek to Strengthen
International Law Bases.
Our conference must devote sim
cere effort to discovering the means
of strengthening the foundations of
international law. At time when
the structure of world order under
law is being undermined and i'm
paired in many parts of the globe,
the very highest responsibility rests
upon us to keep alive these funda-
mental principles Of relations among
nations upon which alone such order
can be maintained.
The right of each nation to
manage its own affairs free from
outside interference; recognition of
the sovereignty and equality of
states irrespective of size and
strength: respect for the pledged
word and the sancity of treaty OBJ
ligations-these and numerous other
basic principles must be the govern
ing rules of international conduct
if peace, rather than anarchy, is
to prevail, and civilization is to
advance.
Our conference must extend and
make more secure the bases of sound
and healthy economic relations
among nations. Excessive trade bar
riers and other obstacles to the flow
of mutually profitable international
Evening star., 1938-12-11

commerce still weigh heavily upon
the economic life of the world-on
our continent, as well as elsewhere.
Nations cannot prosper and provide
for their populations full measure
Of stable employment and a rising
standard of living If international
trade Is destroyed by suicidal at
tempts at autarchy or is impaired
by being forced into the artificial
channels of narrow bilaterialism or
exclusive regionalism. And just as
production cannot be expanded and
improved by return to hand opera
ton, so trade cannot be foStered
by a reversion to the primitive
forms Of physical barter. Only
through a liberalization of trade
relations, through a reduction of
excessive trade barriers, through a
firm establishment of equality of
commercial treatment, can the ex-
change of goods among nations
play its vital and indispensable role
OF enhancing the prosperity and
stability of national economies.
The removal of excessive trade
barriers and the restoration of the
trade process to a basis of equality
OF commercial treatment and COM
mercial opportunity is today a task
OF the utmost importance. Unless
the nations of the world can achieve
this task, the prospect for economic
and social improvement and sta
bility within nations must remain
dark indeed. Our conference should
examine every feasible method of
aiding in the successful performance
of this task-among ourselves, as
we'll as between each of us and the
rest of the world. We seek to re-
store mutually profitable trade to
the fullest practical extent both
among the American nations and
among all the nations of the world
Work of Moral Disarmament
indispensable to Americas.
Our conference must carry for
ward the work of providing wider
and stronger foundations for inter-
national cultural relations and bet
ter understanding among nations
again. among ourselves. as we'll as
between each of us and the rest of
the world. This work of moral dis
armament. already far advanced on
the American Continent, is indis-
pensable for the creation and main
tenance of civilized world order
under law. 1t is an important
vehicle for strengthening and de-
veloping those innumerable inter-
national relationships in every
phase Of human activity through
which the lives of nations have
already been vastly enriched.
The American nations, with the
cooperation of some of the nations
of the other hemisphere, are faith

relations among nations a state of
anarchy, of reliance upon armed
force, of complete absence of any
kind OF safety and security.
Mankind Is tragically confronted
once more by the alternatives of
freedom or serfdom, of order or
anarchy, Of progress or retrogres-
sion, of civilization or barbarism.
Let there be no illusion. The al
ternatives are real and concrete not
only in the portions of the world
lying in the immediate vicinity of
the countries in which these resur-
gent forces find their organized ex-
preston: they loom threateningly
throughout the world. Their omi-
nous shadow falls athwart our own
hemisphere.
In the face of this threat, it is
our most important duty to our
selves and to humanity to main
tain and preserve inviolate our own
institutions and beliefs on which
they rest. 1t is imperative that
the 2l republics of the western
hemisphere proclaim. unequivocal-
ly and unmistakably, their pro-
found belief that only the type OF
national organization and of in
ternational relationship which we
and the rest of mankind have been
persistently and laboriously build
ing up in the course of recent
generations can make it possible
for nations to advance materially
and culturally. and for man to be
free It is imperative that our
peoples rededicate themselves to the
ideals which actuated the founders
of our respective nations. 1t is
imperative that our generation
should find again that clarity of
vision, that tenacity of purpose.
and that heroic determination which
led our forefathers to stake their
ALTO make every sacrifice. if
need should be-for the assertion
of human rights and the creation
and maintenance of free popular
government.
The characteristics which our
nations have in common and which
have already rendered possible in
the western hemisphere a recent
course of developments different
from those which have occurred
in many other parts Of the world,
are powerful factors in enabling us
to perform this duty. Toward that
end we must work unremittingly.
Each and all of us desire passion
ately to live at peace with every
nation of the world. But there
must not be a shadow of doubt
anywhere as to the determination
of the American nations not to
permit the invasion of this hemi-
sphere by the armed forces of any
power or any possible combination
Evening star., 1938-12-11

Of powers. Each of our nations
obviously must decide for itself
what measures it should take in
order to meet its share Of our COM
mon interest and responsibility in
this respect AS far as my country
Is concerned, let no one doubt for
a moment that, SO long as the
possibility of armed challenge exists,
the United States will maintain
adequate defensive military, naval
and air establishments.
Armed Force Is Not Only
Instrumentality Of Conquest.
At the same time, we all know
that armed force is not the only
instrumentality by which nations
can be conquered. Equally. the dis
semination by nations of doctrines
and the carrying on of many other
types of activity can be utilized for
the purpose Of undermining and
destroying in other nations estab-
lished institutions of government
and basic social order. Such activi-
ties are based on fallacious theories
of class or racial superiority, or
claims to national dominance, which
are being revived again in some
parts of the world.
There is no place in the Western
Hemisphere for revival of such
doctrines and theories, which our
nations, in common with an over
whelming ma jority of civilized man.
kind, rejected long ago.
Each and all of us desire to main
tain friendly relations with every
nation of the world-resting upon
the basis of mutual respect for
national independence, upon non-
interference in the internal affairs
of others, upon fair dealing in every
phase of international relationships.
But there should not be a shadow
of a doubt anywhere as to the de-
termination of the American ma
tions not to permit the invasion of
this hemisphere from any quarter
by activities contrary or inimical
to this basis of relations among
nations. Here again, with a full
consciousness of our common inter-
est and responsibility, each of our
nations must decide for itself what
measures it should take in order
to peet these insidious dangers.
All this is of surprising i'm
portance. And yet, adequate de-
fense against actual or potential
danger is not enough as the OBJ
jective of responsible statesman
ship There is equal or even
greater need for unstinted effort in
the direction OF removing the
causes of danger and Of opening
the way for the constructive pro-
cesses of human progress. The
conditions which confront us re-

President Sees Start
OF Work on Airport
At Grave||y Point
Be-FIoeeed Dredee Takes
Up River Bottom, Gets
Scont Attention
By JOSEPH S. EDGERTON

While President Roosevelt and
the Nations civil and military air
leaders looked on through brisk
November rain in the gathering
gloom late yesterday afternoon, an
Army Engineer Corps clam shell
dredge, flag bedecked, solemnly
scooped up and laid down loads of
Potomac River bottom to start the
So, $50 900 Washington National Air
port at Gravelly Point.
Except for three long. hoarse
blasts from the dredge whistle as
the President and his retinue drove
up to a point near the shore OF
Hunters Point, at the south end of
the airport site, there was no cere-
mony.
AS the presidential car stopped.
Col. Sumpter Smith. chairman of
the Air Safety Board of the Civil
Aeronautics Authority, in charge of
plans for the airport development,
stepped to the running board with a
large scale aerial photograph of the
area with the airport plan sketched
in and gave the President rapid
fire description of the project.
Photographers gathered around and
flash hsbulbs winked in the gloom.
No one paid any attention as the
dredge went to work. for all the
world like an old COW which has
lowed a greeting to its master ana
which then goes back to her grass
cropping. Up and down went the
bucket, picking up chunks Of the
bottom close off shore and laying
them down few feet away.
Farther off, however, really serious
work was in progress. A crew on an
engineer barge was engaged In sink
ing a caisson into the river bottom
and taking samples Of the underly-
ing material.
A Glance for the Dredge.
This test boring will be carried
on up and down the river for a
distance of nearly 2 miles until
several hundred sample cores have
been taken at distances of about 200
feet apart. Upon the analysis of
these borings will depend the loca-
ton of the areas to be dredged for
material with which to build up the
airport out of the river bottom.
Finally, the photographers fin-
ished photographing the President,
wit.\ E. K. Burlew, First Assistant
Secrt :ary of the Interior at his side
and Col. Smiths maps in his lap.
Every one looked briefly at the dip
ping and bobbing old dredge out in
the river. Then there was a rush
to get out of the rain and into the
shelter of waiting automobiles. The
President led off and everybody went
home, leaving the dredge and its
attendant pipe driving scow alone
in the midst of the soggy waste
