Scandinavia will become "the rec

second World Moral Rearmament
Assembly were told yesterday.
Speakers representing 81 delegates
from Denmark, Normay, Sweden
and Finland said the spirit of moral
rearmament was spreading from
their nations southwark, providing
reconciliation and hope that may
yet prevent an outbreak of war and
build a new basis for the establish
ment Of responsible democracy"
Paul Broderson, dean of the

ment as a revolt against the
tyranny of human instincts, a re-
discovery of the Holy Spirit, and a
return to God"

lLegIess Vendor
Wins Plea to
keep Monkey

A personal plea to the Commits
sioners for relief from police regu-
lation separating him from his pet
monkey, Gypsy, yesterday ended in
victory for Eddie Bernstein, legless
pencil vendor, who works in front of
an F street store. The city heads
asked Assistant Corporation Counsel
Edward w. Thomas to draw up an
amendment which would permit the
master to keep his pet.
The regulation in question was q
police order of last February requir-
ing owners of specified pets, includ-
ing monkeys, to take out a permit
from the chief of police for a Today
period at a cost of $40.
Eddie rolled down to the District
Building on his roller platform sew
eral weeks ago to tell the Commis-
sioners that by his mathematics it
would cost him $365 a year to have
Gypsy. This, he said, would bank
rupt" him.
Mr.. Thomas said the amendment
probably would eliminate the re-
quired fee as we'll as the 1O-day
limit and simply require taking out
a permit from the chief Ct police.
Eddie, who said he st his legs
in railroad accider when a child,
was given Gypsy by Mrs. Evalyn
Walsh Mclean 4fter dog which he
previously owed was run over. He
also said hy had been given an
other dog sby Mrs. l.. w. Chip

McNuft Rules Out
u. 5. Payment for
Bulletin in His Praise
Indiana Unemployment
Body Printed Chart
Showing Political Rise
BY the Associated Press.

.
Paul V. McNutt, Federal security
administrator, has ruled that the
Federal Government should not pay
for publication Of a bulletin of the
Indiana Unemployment Compensa-
ton Commission containing COM
plimentary remarks about him.
Mr.. McNutt made public yester-
day letter to the Social Security
Board asking that Federal grants
for the Commission be cut by the
amount 1t cost to issue the bulletin.
The funds would come from the
Federal grant to the State for ad-
ministrative expenses of the Com
pensation Commission. Jobless
benefits come from a different fund.
Mr.. McNutt said he had been en-
barrassed by the publication, which
was evidently the result of the
thoughtless action of overenthusi-
astic friends" The bulletin carried
picture of Mr.. McNutt, former
Governor of Indiana, and a chart
showing former Offices held by him.
Over the date 194l was picture of
the National Capitol
Senator Bridges. Republican, of
New Hampshire had called the
Senate's attention to the bulletin
and said that Mr.. McNutt was ito
be congratulated on starting his
campaign as soon as he has"
Friends in Indiana are seeking
the Democratic presidential nom
ination for Mr.. McNutt in 1910.
