Says.

Gutzon Borglum, the sculptor whose
word battles have been almost as re-
nowned as his status, said today on
his 67th birthday anniversary:
MY life has been a one-man war
from its beginning to date.
When. adventure and the fascina-
ton of risk and danger abandon me,
will have become a trailer and had
better hook on behind some safe, slow
moving force"
Energetic as ever. Mr.. Borglum took
occasion to criticize the Government
for ''harboring productive, in
competent no-accounts," and ex-
panded his theme to declare that "a
SNUG, unframed civilization is clut-
.tering up our life"
Dangers, enemies, jealousies and
hogs in the trough are to be found in
all professional and public matters, -
he said. dishonesty and incompe-
tency give any straight shooting
square-dealing man a battle every
day"
The bald stocky sculptor recalled
that he was born on the Oregon trail
in Idaho March 25, 1871. He ran
away from home three times before
he was 10 and at 20 he was in Paris,
beginning successful 1l-year career
abroad.
Mr.. Borglum, perhaps best known
for his gigantic figures, said his con-
ception and carving of the memorial
to the Southern Confederacy on the
face of Stone Mountain Georgia has
done more to awaken the latent dra-
matte quality of my art than any
other thing"
He announced recently that he ex-
pected to return in the near future
to complete the memorial.
Mr.. Borglum now is carving the
first Federally authorized national
memorial on Mount Rushmore in the
Black Hills of South Dakota. The
project is about 80 per cent completed
He also is finishing a memorial at
Marietta, Ohio. commemorating the
opening of the West to colonization.

I'm spite Of everything, 1t Is very
much more likely that the Soviet
Union will be called upon for the SAL
vation of other countries and will
generously fight for them than that
the contrary will take place.
"One OF the most essential factors
in the present international situation
is that the Soviet Union is more pre-
pared to take care of itself than any
other country in Europe from q mill
tary point of view."
The Ambassador devoted his radio
speech mainly to the recent conspiracy
trial in Moscow. This he summed up
by saying:

point out that it is not necessarily the
Soviet Union which will be the next to
be involved in world war.
I'm my personal opinion, 1t is very
likely that the Soviet Union will be
involved in the war because of
treaties with other countries.
"Our defensive treaty of mutual as
sistance with Czechoslovakia provides
that we have to come to the help Of
Czechoslovakia in the event that she
is attacked by any aggressor If France

By the Associated Press.
PARIS. March 25-The cabinet.
only II days in Office, averted a fresh
ministerial crisis today by approving
Premier Leon Blum's proposal to seek
ratification by the Chamber of Dep
uties of only one of his financial bills.
The measure provides for the ad-
vancement of 50O0,0O0.OOO francs
($l60000,000) from the Bank of
France to the Treasury to meet i'm
mediate bills. The measure already
had received Senate approval with
some amendments from the form
previously passed by the chamber.
The cabinet decided not to insist
upon a second bill which the Senate
opposed, but to prepare instead more
complete financial legislation which
will be submitted next week.
S94,470,000 Sought for Defense.
The second bill sought advancement
OF $94, 100000 from the monetary
stabilization fund for defense needs.
The cabinet decision gave the Gov
ernment way out of it's immediate
financial difficulties, but provided no
solution of where to get money for
extensive national defense needs.
The Senate, having fatty rejected
using a surplus in the stabilization
fund, suggested submission of ample"
legislation to meet the needs of both
Government operation and armed pre-
paredness. This legislation was in
preparation.
Despite calls for Mr.. Blum'S reSigna-
ton in the upper house yesterday,
friends of the premier said he was
determined to remain in power be-
cause of the critical domestic and
foreign situations.
Increasing strikes were among the
immediate problems of the govern
ment. Employees occupying five Ci-
troen plans in the Paris region re-
fused to permit Office staffs to enter
the plants today.
The number of workers on strike
IN the Paris and Lille regions was esti-
mated at 26.720. Metal workers in
the Lille district raised red flags at
factory gates and lifted clenched fists
in the Leftist salute as they sat on
factory walls.
