zdtion Of war psychology to boost prices
for the purpose Of making excessive profits.
As manufacturers we recognize it to be
conduct our businesses SO that the prices of
the products we produce and sell are related
eql1itdblY to production costs.
We pledge our energetic support to this
policy.
The Nationdl Association of Mdnufoc-
turers calls upon all it's members to exer-
else vigilance against any price or profit
policies not justified by actual cost and
anticipated cost of replacement.
4 Months ago this Association saids "No
sensible person believes that profit cam
come OUT Of the svrecAage Of human life
and economic disIocation."
The use Of this crisis as an excuse either
to extort unjustifidble profits or to pursue
partisdn political detectives is not only
indefensible and dangerous. but reprehen-
sible morally. Nor should pleas of "emer-
qencY" be utilized as an excuse for redch-
ing detectives which the American people
would not sanction otherwise.
The present situation coils for oqree-
ment on common detectives, but the demo-
cratic process of consultation and criticism
must never be abandoned. Otherwise. we
shall be following in the footsteps Of those
who believe in government by coercion.

Derby Car Builders
Warned Inspection
Will Be Strict
Director HoIIerun Calls
Attention to $40
Assessment Rule
BY ROBERT A. ERWIN.

Boys who are building racers for
The Star-American Legion Soap
Box Derby were warned today that
the 1889 official rules will be strictly
enforced when annual inspection Is
held on July 6 and 7, preceding the
Derby on Saturday. the 9th.
"The rules are very fair, and they
assure every boy an equal chance"
0. G. Holleran, Derby director, said.
There are many features of racer
building which will be examined
with special care during the inspec-
tionS.
Several points in the rules should
be called to the attention of all boys
who are competing. One Is adult
construction. A boy can secure ad-
vice from his father, his shop
teacher, automobile mechanics or
any other adults, but advice only,
and no help with the actual con-
struction except from boys of Derby
age. Cars showing signs of actual
adult workmanship will be disquali-
fed"
Wheels and Axles.
Wheels and axles are probably
the most important parts of a
Derby car when it comes to COM
pliance with the rules, the director
continued. He cited regulations pro-
viding that used wheels shall be
assessed at their original retail
price when new, prohibiting float
ing axles and precision-bearing
wheels and limiting machine work
that may be done on axle rods.
Build carefully and watch the
rules closely" Mr.. Holleran advised
approximately $50 boys registered
for the Derby, "and you won't have
the least bit of trouble when your
car goes through inspection. Re-
member, too. the $40 cost limit.
Every part will be assessed at the
retail price when new"
S. H. Kramer and Charles F. Fos-
ter, Woodshop teachers at Anacostia
Junior High School, and two of their
schoolboys competing in the Derby
will be interviewed in tomorroW's
Soap Box Derby Parade to be broad
cast over Station WMAL at 4:45

1000 Return 10 Jobs
After Strike Agreement

More than 1000 union building
laborers were back on the Job this
morning following an agreement Of
arbitration with contractors yester-
day which ended q 16-day strike
tieing up much construction here.
An additional 500 men. however.
will remain idle until the carpen-
ters' strike, still deadlocked over
wage demands, is settled.
The truce, announced by Howard
F. Colvin, Department Of Labor
conciliator, calls for settlement of
wage differences that brought about
the walkout on June 5. Asked by
both sides to act as mediator, Mr..
Colvip said basis for final settle
ment would be reached within q
few days.
Larry Kelly, president of the la
borers' union, pointed out that an
other 500 men already have re-
turned to work as a result of a re-
cent agreement with individual en-
ployers.

Americas Declared Firm
For Neutrality PRINCIPLES

The Panama meeting of the
American republics showed that the
Americas were determined to main
tain traditional principles of neu-
trality, William Sanders, chief of the
juridical division of the Pan-Amer-
ican Union, told the Adult Forum
of the Universalist National Me-
mortal Church yesterday in a report
on that meeting which he attended
as a Pan-American Union repre-
sentative.
Mr.. Sanders told members that if
it Is more profitable for belligerents
to retain the good will of the Amer
icas than to exercise belligerent
rights within the zone specified in
the declaration Of Panama, it is
probable that they will not violate
the declaration. If belligerents un-
dertake hostile acts in the security
belt the American Republics will,
under the terms of the declaration,
make joint representations, Mr..
Sanders said. If these representa-
tions are not effective, Mr.. Sanders
added, further consultations between
the governments will be in order.

We need not attribute the re-.

that no considerations of humanity

them some advantage.
They must, therefore, have come
to the conclusion that at present
they could have lost more than they
would gain by such attacks, and they
have preferred to use methods which
they think can be employed without
serious loss for themselves. The

NEW YORK, NoD. 27.-Follotp-
ing is the tert OF Prime Minister
Chamberlatn's speech yesterday
as transcribed here by the Ma
tional Broadcasttng Co.:
The last time I broadcast to YOU
it was on the 3rd Of September
it was to tell you that we were at
war with Germany. The catastrophe
which I had striven so hard to pre-
vent had come upon us, thanks to
Hitler's unbridled ambition, and
there was nothing left for us to do
but to set our teeth and with our
friends and allies to put a stop to
this policy of domination which
had so long disturbed the peace Of
Europe.
I had always hoped that it might
not fall to my lot to have to make
that decision, but when the time
came did not and I could not hesi-
tate to make it for I knew that the
liberties of all free peoples, includ-
ing our own, were at stake. And
today, after just II weeks of war, I
am speaking to you again, happily
with health and strength unim
paired, and with complete confidence
in our ultimate victory.
OF one thing you can be sure. We
will not follow the German example
of concealing our own losses from
you or inventing enemy losses which
do not exist. We told you of the
loss of the Courageous, and the
Royal Oak, and you have just heard
of the sinking of the Royal Gipsy.
None of these losses affects our over
whelming naval superiority, and we
shall tell you frankly what is hap
pening even when the truth is un-
pleasant and We shall never refrain
from publishing news except when
it would be helpful to the enemy
to have it. Up to the present, the
war has been carried on in a way
