Grandfather Frog had no desire to

Peter was disappointed. He had
come way over there to call on Grand
father Frog, and now Grandfather
Frog was somewhere down on the bot
tom of the Smiling Pool, all because
of Longlegs the Heron. Peter didn't
know whether to 60 home or wait.
Finally he decided to see what Long

young Frog he would have settled
himself to wait, but he knew that
Grandfather Frog was altogether too
wise from long experience to be caught
that way. Waiting for him would be a
waste of time. So Longlegs gravely
stalked along and disappeared down
the Laughing Brook.
Peter sat on the bank of the Smiling
Pool and stared down into the water

things worth knowing that he wouldn't
learn If he were less curious.
Every so often Peter goes over to
the Smiling Pool to acll on Grand
father Frog. Grandfather Frog, you
know, is accounted very old and very
wise. Perhaps 1t is because he looks
wise. Anyway his neighbors look on
him as very wise. At least many Of
them do, Peter Rabbit among them.

The bombardment, W HI c n

with the flowers dropped earlier
in the day by a lone insurgent
bomber on the East cemetery IN
an All Souls day tribute.
The aerial battle over the Ebro
front. along the western boundary
of lovalist Catalonia, was the 10y
aIists' answer to the challenge of
Franco, who had rushed more
than $50 fighting planes to the
sector over the weekend.
More than 100 insurgent pur-
suit planes, which had been Turk
ing above the clouds at $4,000
feet over the village of Picaron,
Owed into the affray, bringing
down three of the loyalist bomb
ers, the insurgents said.
After "dog fighting" over a
wide area the remaining loyalist
bombers finally fled. according to
the insurgent version.

. NJ T CIV 4&s,gs 8, tJApl,
TIE national political spotlight
shifted to Hyde Park, N. Y, last
night when President Roosevelt
returned to his country home to
make a radio plea on Friday for
the success Of the New York state
Democratic ticket and to vote in
the November 8 election.
White House aides said that the
address, which will be broadcast
to the nation, will be of general
interest. This was interpreted as
an indication that the chief eX-
ecutive will urge again that the
electorate replace political con-
servatives with known liberals
the theme song of his ill-fated
purge" of party recalcitrants in
the primaries.
The defeat Of the New York
Democratic ticket would be a lus-
ty wallop to the administrations
prestige and the president knows
it. Despite indications from polls
and other surveys made in New
York that the Lehman-Dewey race
in particular will be close, Mr..
Roosevelt was not worried as he
left the capital. He had said at his
press conference Tuesday that
reports reaching him were to the
effect that the situation was sat-
isfactory.
New Dealers, however, expect
the president to make a rousing
plea for the entire Democratic
ticket, with emphasis on the need
of the doubtful to rally behind the
Lehman agner-Mead trio.
AS he rode into one Of the En-
pire States hottest political fights
in years, one of his cabinet mem
bers, Secretary of Agriculture
Henry A. Wallace, came to the
defense of a New Deal senator
and a Democratic senator who had
hurdled the purge"

BRITISH PREMIER WINS VOTE
OF CONFIDENCE WHILE CRITICS
SAY WAR BROUGHT NEARER
Opposition Halls Him as
Ages Boneless Wonder
But no Parliamentary
Strength Is Lost
By RICHARD D. NMILLAN

LONDON, Nov. 3.-(UP)-
Prime Minister Neville Chamber
lain late last night won a 345 to
1873 vote of confidence in the
house of commons for his pact OF
friendship with Premier Benito
Mussolini after his critics had
mercilessly described him as the
homeless wonder of the age"
The vote, revealing that the
prime minister actually had lost
none of his parliamentary strength
as result Of the "peace of Mu-
nich," was in effect a go-ahead
signal for his four-power program
of dealing with the dictators.
AS result of the vote, the An
glo-Italian pact initiated in Rome
last April Is will be put into OPP
Grafton Immediately and Britain
will recognize formally Italian
sovereignty over Ethiopia.
The vote of 345 to 1873 COM
pared with one of 316 to 10S cast
for Chamberlain last May Five
months before Munich-when the
original terms of the Italian
agreement were approved.
Chamberlain asked support for
the pact with Italy on the grounds
that "it must be regarded as a
step towards appeasement i'm
proving the prospects of peace as
whole" 4
'Fiie eppsss5ion, ana svent fsE
mer Foreign Secretary Anthony
Eden of his own party, condemn
ed the past as another "surren-
der" to the dictators, bringing
closer the menace of war.
Eden, who resigned from Cham
berlain's cabinet last February in
protest against the Anglo-Italian
pact, voted against it.
Chamberlain was expected to
turn his efforts Immediately to
four-power collaboration on SUCH
proposals for durable European
peace as:
/. Non aggression p d 6 S
whereby Britain, Germany, Italy
and France would renounce war
against each other.
2. Some satisfaction of Ger
many's colonial claims.
3. A plan to curb Europe's
frenzied ornaments race.
4. Economic and financial adj
justments to strengthen intehna-
tional friendships.
The four-power leaders, at their
Munich conference on September
20, agreed to meet again within
three months or as soon as the
Czech frontier disputes with Po-
land and Hungary were disposed
of. The Czech-Hungarian dispute
was settled by arbitration today,
opening the way for another
meeting of the "big four"
London newspapers referred
confidently today to the POSSIBLE
ity of an early meeting between
Chamberlain and Chancellor Adolf
Hitler, but there was no reference
to such meeting in the commons
debate in which attacks were
heaped upon the prime minister.

Tobacco Workers
Abandon Strike
c. l. O. Regional Director
Orders This Action

MIDDLETOWN, O., Nov. s.
(UP). - The Pioneer Tobacco
Workers union late last night
abandoned its month-old strike
against the P. Lorillard Tobacco
company plant here as 500 ma
tional guardsmen stood by with
arms to prevent possible violence.
An estimated 500 workers, 459
of whom were said to be members
of the Committee for Industrial
Organization affiliated union,
agreed to an emergency meeting
to call off the strike at midnight,
in response to an order from Paul
w. Fuller, CLIO. regional director
at Cincinnati.
With one dissenting vote, the
strikers announced that they
would return to their jobs today
Sin orderly fashion," but will file
new charges with the national la
Dor relations board in an effort to
force resumption of collective
bargaining with company officials
over demands for vacations with
pay, seniority rights and establish
ment of grievance machinery.

many and Italy, sitting as a court

directed Czechoslovakia to sur

ton of $4,000 to Hungary with

The decision, reached here by
German Foreign Minister Joachlm

most of their claims.
The Polish Hungarian demand
for a common frontier, by means
of the amputation of Czechoslo-

was rejected, however. Czechoslo-
vakia also was allowed to retain
her important frontier city OF

The senate campaign investigat-

that it had uncovered evidence Of
neglect If not criminay'' prepara-
ton of voting lists in Hudson
county, New Jersey, and warned
that candidates claiming election
on such fraudulent methods" will
have to answer to q senate chal-
lenge.
The warning was directed at
both parties, although Chairman
Morris Sheppard, D., Tex, admit.
ted that the charges were filed
against the Hudson county Demo-
cratic organization and that none
was filed against the Republicans.
In connection with the Ohio
senatorial campaign, the commit

publican, of charges that he spent
more than he renorted. 1t said
that Robert J. Buckley, Democrat
ic incumbent, charged with ac-
cepting contributions from about
so federal employees, was covered
by it's general statement holding
donations by government workers
to be illegal.
Sheppard disclosed that COM
