Diplomat and Wife Due
Here Monday

NEW YORK, Dec. 10 IN.SO.
Anthony Eden. former Births n
foreign secretary, today prepared
for a visit to Washington on Mon.
day following his dramatic speech
last night. in which he C a ! | e d
upon the democracieS to defend
the principles upon which they
were founded.
Painting a vivid picture Of a
world torn by unrest, Eden urged
democracies to hold fast to our
faith, cradle it in stone, set steel
to defend it,"
Speaking at the concluding SeS-
sion of the American Manufacture
erS' Association before the great
est gathering of American bust
neSSmen ever assembled in this
country. Eden hurled challenge
to the ideologies which he saw
threatening world peace.
The visitors schedule calls for
a visit to the Worlds Fair this
afternoon.
Given a remarkable ovation by
the more than 1000 representa-
tives of industrial America, the
EnsliSh statesman won his atten-
tive audience instantly.
Applause greeted him as he said:
1--WE are not calling out for
help from others, nor seeking to
lure others to pull our chestnutS
out of the fire"
UNOFFICIAL VISIT
In opening his address, Eden
stressed the unofficial character
of his visit. He declared that it
was neither official, semi-officlal
or even one-sixteenth part off,
cial."
With a faint trace of bitterness,
Eden traced the failures of the
World War. He said:
Tolerance and justice, we
hoped-not force and greed
would rule. Twenty years after
we can reflect ruefully how re-
mote we are from the goal OF
our hopes"
Brushing aside excuses for the
failure of the wal to end all
wars" to achieve its ends, Eden
said:
The realities that face us de-
mand all our energy and all our
concentration. What are these
realities? They are blunt and
grim.
National animositieS have
not been exercised; on the con-
trary, they appear to have been
intensified under the banner of
rival ideologies. Nor has the |
way to peace been made plain.
whatever else the world may
now have been made, it has
plainly not been made safe for
democracy. Other systems of
COVE. nment, deriving authority
from a totally different philos-
ophy, throw out their strident
challenge"
I'VE are acutely conscious OF
the need to defend ourselves,
both materially and spiritually"
Picturing England as a nation
on guard Eden, whose uncom-
promising position toward the die
tators of Europe cost him his
cabinet post, said:
OPINIONS DIFFER
Readily admitting there were
differences of opinion as to pro-
cedure in his homeland, Eden
said:
1T is no unhealthy sign in
free community. At heart, we
all want to preserve our lib
critics. We want freedom and
security. We all want peace.
However, much we may differ
as to the method we think best
to follow in order to win the
common goal.
1T is the essence of democ-
racy that it provides constant
schooling in this endless adven-
ture which is the art of govern
ment. Democracy is a univer-
sity in which we learn from
one another,

"A Majority
BY KENNETH T. DOWNS

PARIS, Dec. 10G.N.S0 Premier
Edouard Daladier emerged with a
new, hard-won political victory to-
day when the Chamber of Depu-
ties climaXed a riotous session by
voting 315 tC 241 in favor of his
domestic ana foreign policies.
The vote constituted an endorse
ment of the Chambers confidence
in Daladier's program for national
recovery, his stern measures to
break the one-day general strike
ana the maritime strike, and his
program for aiding European ap-
peasement as represented by the
Franco-German mo war" agree

MAJORITY OF "A
A Chamber majority of IA pro
longed the existence of the Dala-
dier regime. Fifty-three deputies,
mostly dissident Socialists, Radi-
cal Socialists and extreme Right
lists, abstained from voting.
Outcome of the vote fortified
the strength of Europe's new four
power peace accord reached at
Munich.
Daladier's victory, however, was
not won without a struggle, and
at one time the Chamber was
plunged into an outbreak Of fist
fighting that caused a 10-minute
suspension before Woodworking
sergeants could restore order.
The Premier opened the debate
by demanding an immediate

accusing the French Communist
party of fomenting an insured
tionary strike" aimed at over
throwing the government.
BLUM CHALLENGED
Before the vote was taken the
Chamber rang with noisy recrimi-
nations and insults and finally
physical violence boiled up as Leon

age one. ThereS mourning SpecCac~
uiar about her views on any sub
ject--political, economic or social.
She's pleased that she and her
husband and children were chosen
more than o year ago from speci-
fications in Robert s. and Helen
Lynd's book, 'Middletown In Tram
sition," as being typical as to be-
liefs, circumstances and economic
conditions. But pleased chiefly be-
cause being chosen gave them o
trip to Chicago with expenses paid,
and now trip to New York.
While in New York, Mrs. Craig
wants to visit all Of the widely pub
licized MISUNDERSTANDING City, the
Empire state Building, the Aquar-
FUN, Grants Tomb, the Bronz Zoo,
the Statute OF Liberty. She's not
much interested in the theater or
night clubs.
Mrs. Craig was born In Birming-
ham, Ala, met Mr.. Craig at the
water company where her father
worked. They were married, nine
years ago, In New Jersey at the
home of her sister. Before her mar
rage, she was O bookkeeper. And
she hated bookkeeping.

After all, education Is nice for girls,
but It's absolutely necessary Tor
boys"
Among other thoughts that Nell
lie Craig has on questions OF I'M
portance TO women are:
That careers are all right for the
married woman who likes to work,
providing she has no children: "A
mothers place Is with her children"
That divorce is nothing to be
