HITLER IS TO
 ARM GERMANY
 TO VERY TEETH
Declares That Is What Rest of World Is Doing-No
 Crushing of Nazism :

WEIMAR. Nov. 7.-Reich's Fuehr- CT Hitler lectured Democracies Sun- day and speaking 'as loving man" declared that T have decid- ed to give the German Reich a de- fense force that will be conducive for peace being kept"
 Hitler said that talk of reducing armaments is very suspicious and Germany will not reduce her arma- ments. He said the rest of the world is arming to the teeth, so will Ger many"
 Hitler took cognizance of the Brit ish Laborite criticism of Nazism to proclaim it is the duty ito see this Reich shall not be crushed"
 Hitler branded the action by the World War victors, in disregard of Woodrow Wilson's fourteen points, as the greatest betrayal of all time but history has shown Democracy in practice is different from Demo- cracy in theory. The Democratic nations can only conceive one duty, namely, to uphold Democracy with resultant liberty to anybody to in- cite war. Let the world leave us alone, We want nothing but to get on with our work in peace"

President Is Nearing Sisth ear Of Administration; Manner Just
 As Merry as Euer; Health Good
By PRESTON GROVER

WASHINGTON, Nov. 7.-As he -apr caches the end of the sixth year since he first was elected, President Roosevelt has:
 The biggest and fastest-growing navy.
 The biggest national debt
 The biggest social security and relief agencies.
 The biggest cabinet CYou have to include Harry Hopkins, ex-of- ficio, these days).
 The biggest Federal payroll (ex- cept possibly for the wartime peak).
 More and deeper face wrinkles.
 The last come from all the busi- ness that produced the rest. It is no snap job being President in a time when nations are pitching nickels to see which goes to war first. Fucker wrinkles, the kind gained from compressing the lips, seemed deeper about the Presi- dents mouth last time we saw him than even few months ago. He's been easing up these last few days since the Czech war scare, taking time out at Hyde Park whenever possible.

THREAT MADE
 BY JAPANESE TOWARD U. s.

TOKYO, Nov. 7.-The newspaper Kokumin, considered the organ of the Army and ultra Nationalistic clements, warned today that Japan will take retaliatory measures if the United States attempted to force her continued recognition of the Nine Power treaty for territor- ial integrity and open door policy in China.
 The newspaper article scoffed at the declaration of American Sec retary of State Cordell Hull that the United States attitude in the Far East is based on existing treaties and remained unchanged.
 The newspaper further belittled the Secretary's declaration as de- signed for home consumption and declared also that British machina- tions were working behind the scenes.

In consequence, the traffic stream
