PARLEY DUE SOON
ON W|LLK|E OFFER
Li|ientha|, T. V. A. Chief, to
Discuss Sale of Utilities
in South to u. S.
P5 the Associated Press.

z > tAiS HSsoNAetSu 1890
A high administration official pre-
dicted today that David E. Lilienthal
and Wendell L. Willkie would get to-
gether soon to discuss the sale of large
private power utilities in the South to
the Tennessee Valley Authority.
Mr. Willkie, president of Common
wealth &; Southern Corp. proposed re-
Gently that because of the desperate"
competitive situation between public
and private power in the T. v. A. area,
the Government should take over some
of the principal operating properties
of his huge holding company.
The T. v. A. Board has authorized
Mr. Lilienthal, one of its members, to
negotiate for purchase of units he
deems useful.
State Purchase Planned.
In informed quarters, 1t was pre-
dicted that the T. " AS course would
not be altered materially by plan
put forward by Gov. Gordon Browning
Of Tennessee for purchase of one Of
the principal properties by State
agencies.
Gov. Browning presented his pro-
posal to President Roosevelt yesterday.
Later he declined to discuss the Presi-
dents reaction, but he did emphasize
that the State could act without Fed
eral cooperation.
The next step is the determination
Of whether to establish districts and
negotiate with the private utilities"
Gov Browning said
Under his proposal, the Tennessee
Rural Identification Authority would
create one or more power districts
covering the 60 counties in which the
Tennessee Electric Power Co.. a Com
monwealth &, Southern subsidiary, now
operates
These districts. set up as non-profit
corporations, would issue bonds to
finance the purchase of the power
company's properties. They could
acquire the generating and transmits
sion as we'll as the locai distribution
facilities Of the company.
Gov. Browning said that "of course,
what we'd like to do is have the T. v.
A. buy the existing transmission lines
and generating facilities leaving only
the distribution lines for district opera
ton.
The Governor explained that the
primary purpose of the publicly-con-
trolled district power systems would be
to make power available to the people
at T. v. A. rates.
Gov. Browning's proposal applied
only to properties in Tennessee, while
it was understood that the forthcom-
ing talks between Willkie and Lilien-
thai would cover broader territory.

Czechs milled through the streets

Many were restless and parad-
ed in small groups behind flag
bearers. Others gathered in knots
talking in resentful undertones.
They said they were friendless IN

mics, deserted by their allies. Men
as well as women stood about the

Gen. Ludvic Krejci, comman-
der-in-chief, ordered the army TO

helmeted police watched closely
for any excessive outburst. The
government was determined that
there should be no demonstrations;
which might be misconstrueo
abroad as threatening.
There were frequent angry
shouts in the streets, but the pre-
vailing mood seemed to be one IN
which Czechs struggled to contfo

calmness.
The feeling against Germany
was most bitter, but Czechs today
hated Great Britain and France
almost as much for having signed
away their border areas to Ger

interests of European peace.
The likelihood of an uprising
was lessening, however, because Of

"DlSLOYAL," DECLARES
WAR SECRETARY

WASHINGTON, Oct. !. (UP)
Secretary of War Harry Wood
ring last night branded Major
General George Van Horn Nose
ley as "flagrantlv disloyal" for
issuing a retirement statement at
Atlanta, Ga, in which he assaulted
administration policies and infer
red that the country was headed
toward a dictatorship.
Woodring fired his salvo after
being appraised that Moseley, COM
mander of the fourth corps area
and an army veteran of 43 years,
had, upon retiring, warned that
the world is drifting away from
democracies and asserted that
"our government has recently suf-
fered from an indigestible mass
of untried theories and ideas"
o Moseley was placed on the in
active list when he reached the
automatic retirement age Of Ga.
His retirement pay is $4,000 a
year and so long as he draws it
he is technically subject to army
discipline.
Woodring charged that Moselcy
was disappointed in his ambition
to become army chief Of staff and
that he was celebrating his retire
ment "by assailing the federal
government and, by inference, at
lacking the commander-in-chief
president Roosevelt"
GAS to the reasons for the APP
pointment Of General Malin Craig

ley" the cabinet officer said, 81

further than to read General

statement"
The statement charged that

airy schemes are doomed to fail

600 persons on relief despite huge
expenditures and that further en-
largcment of federal paternal-
ism" might lead to dictatorship.
The grizzled general also found
much encouragement in the
results of the September elections,
where the integrity and the indie
pendence of the American voter
has been shown"
OBVIOUSLY, the general is en-
titled to his own views on govern
mental and other policies but

taste as the general run of Amer
