failure BY Leon Jouhaux. head of
the General Labor Federation
which called the strike, half the
strikers went back to work.
They wished to avoid discharge

RALEIGH, Nov. 80. (UP).-
The blind beggar racket, engineer
ed throughout the south and east
by non-blind promoters, will tug
at heartstrings of sympathetic
givers during the next four weeks
and take hundreds of dollars from
them.
Shabby men, women, boys and

singing nasally or strumming
small musical instruments. Their
tin cups will jingle.
But the profits are not theirs.

WILSON NOT GOING
TO BERLIN SOON

WARM SPRINGS. Ga, Nov.
3O.-(UP) - President Roosevelt
last night indicated the United
States would not resume normal
diplomatic relations with Ger
many until he is convinced the
Nazi government will cease per!
secution of religious, racial and
political ininorities. ~, ~ 4
This policy was interpreted
from Mr.. Roosevelt's statement
to newspaper men that U. S. Am
bassador Hugh Wilson, whom the
president recently recalled from
Berlin, was not going back to
Germany now. The president
would not say when Wilson would
be returned to Berlin.
The chief executive, during a
Commute press conference, d:s-
missed all other questions con-
cerning his recent conferences
with Wilson and William Phillips,
ambassador to Italy. He smiled
and observed that even if he
should be called upon to write a
story of the meeting, he could not
very we'll do it.
Mr.. Roosevelt, sitting behind
the driving wheel of his touring
automobile on a dusty Warm
Springs road for the press con-
ference, said he would renew his
talks with Wilson and Phillips as
soon as he returned to Washing
ton. These discussions, which will
consist Of exchanges of informa-
tion and canvass of the problem
of minority prosecutions abroad
in the light of latest develop
ments, are expected to occur be-
tween December 6 and g..
Phillips is scheduled to sail for
Rome December 10.
White House attaches said the
president, Wilson and Phillips, in
their two conferences here, had
discussed every phase of the cam
paigns of totalitarian governments
against racial and religious minor
ity groups.
Mr.. Roosevelt was expected to
turn temporarily from interna-
tional problems and devote the
major portion of the remainder of
his stay in Warm Springs to study
and to drafting an outline of the
administrations new legislative
program.
The president opened the press
conference by announcing ap-
pointment of DR.. Ross T. McIn-
tire, White House physician, as
surgeon-general of the navy with
rank of rear admiral. Mcintyre,
now a captain in the navy medi-
cal corps, was in the automobile
with the president. He will assume
his new duties next Thursday. He
had been White House physician
