 ''If, however, you are of the opin- ion that any public statement by a head of department on any mat ter concerning the operation of his department is matter which con cerns the policy of the state admln istration and, therefore, should be discussed with you prior to any an nouncement being made, shall be guided in the future by your wish

Opposed Trade Schools

Hartford, Conn.,, April 14-CUP)- State Education Commissioner Alon- 20 G. Grace today wrote the legisla- tive appropriations committee, op- posing building at the present time of two new trade schools at Norwich and Norwalk.
 He said new construction should not be considered in view of Gov. Baldwin's recommendation that two trade schools at middletown and Manchester be eliminated.
 Grace asked postponement of con- sideration until we have supported adequately the trade school s to which we are already committed"

1 Britain, France, Poland, Rumania and Greece-aligned against Nazi- Fascist eXpansionism. It was re- garded as increasingly probable that soon not only Turkey but Bulgaria would be in the peace front along with the Soviet Union.
 May Deny Lithuania
 A Warsaw dispatch to the News Chronicle reported that Germany, demanding revision of the recent agreement under which Memel was handed over to it, intended to deny Lithuania promised free port zone at Memel, to refuse to permit Lith- uania to construct port of it's own, and to require Lithuania to direct all its trade through Memel on terms dictated by Germany.
 It was asserted that the alleged German demands were regarded as warning to Lithuania and as showing aggressive German mten- tions toward Lithuania and the Bal tic generally.
 AS Poland's vital interests are in the Baltic, the dispatch said, Poland could not remain indifferent to fur ther German aggression against Lithuania or any other Baltic state
 Lithuanian Plot Nipped
 A Daily Herald dispatch from Warsaw asserted that the Lithuan- ian government had discovered a dangerous conspiracy to put the country under German domination.
 According to this dispatch, the government smashed the conspiracy by promptly arresting pro-Nazi lead- CTS including former Premier Juozas Tubelis, former Foreign Minister Dovas Zaunius and the Nazis leader Col. Jonas Saludzius. General Stasys Rastikis, commander in chief of the army, personally ar rested Saludzius, it was asserted and the others named were put un- der house arrest.
 It was alleged that the conspira- tors wanted to seize power and ne- gotiate a trade agreement putting Lithuania under the complete poli- | I4Cdl dAlO CSOilOul1C uOillllld GlOll Ol Germany.
 German Naval Exercises
 With Britain and France now openly aligned, and aligning other powers against the Berlin Rome axis" there was considerable in- terest in the disclosure by official quarters that Germany had notified the government that it intended to hold its annual spring naval eXer- ciSes off the Spanish coast, the ex- erciSes to last about a month.
 Units of the fleet are to leave their home ports Tuesday.
 Following up his announcement in the house of commons yesterday guarante the integrity of Greece and that Britain now had decided tc Rumania, Prime Minister Chamber lain expected to be able to announce Tuesday, when the house meets again at the end of its interrupted Easter recess, that Turkey had been brought into the peace front. Turkey in Few Days
 Turkeys inclusion is only mat ter of days. because it has been de- cided in principle that she shall be included in those nations whose integrity Britain and France guar antee.
 This means that the Black Sea is open. through the heavily forti- fled Turkish Dardanelles, to British and French warships and, in event of war, is closed against Italian and German ships.
 Sir John Simon, closing debate for the government in the commons last night, said in answer to de- mands of opposition members that Britain seek an immediate military alliance with Russia:
 "There is no objection in princi- pie to such proposition at all."

the power to become free at any time,"
 Have Stake In World
 Carrying that thought further, he said:
 "The truest defense of the peace of our hemisphere must always lie in the hope that our sister nations beyond the seas will break the bonds of the ideas which constrain them toward perpetual warfare. By ex- ample, we can at least show them the possibility. We, too, have a stake in world affairs"
 He ignored the rising tumult of congressional protest against his earlier forebodings of war and pro- nouncements of policy, sharply re- minding Americans and the world at large that another generation will see air fleets span the ocean "as easily as today they cross the closed European seas"
 He recalled his promise of last summer that the United States would defend the Dominion of Can- ada against attack from overseas and made his commitment in de- fense of the Western Hemisphere more emphatic in this language:
 No Quality of Weakness
 "The American peace we cele- brate today has no quality of weak ness in it. We are prepared to main- tain and to defend 1t to the fullest extent of our strength, matching force to force if any attempt is made to subvert our institutions or to impair the independence of any one of our group.
 Should the method of attack be that of economic pressure, pledge that my own country will also give economic support, so that no Am- erican nation need surrender any fraction of its sovereign freedom to maintain its economic welfare. This is the spirit and intent of the dec- laration of Lima: The solidarity of 8 continent"
 Challenges Statements
 He made no mention of Adolf Hitler or of Premier Benito Mus solini by name but challenged re- cent statements of each and asked
 Do we really have to assume that nations can find no better methods of realizing their destinies than those which were used by the huns and vandals 1,500 years ago?" Repeatedly, MT. Roosevelt em- phasized that what hits the old world jars the new and he con- trasted the peaceful, cooperative and consultative basis of Western Hemisphere living with conditions prevailing beyond the seas.
 "Only a few days ago." he said, "the head of a great nation referred to his country Utaly) as prisoner of the Mediterranean. A little later, another chief of state (Hitler), on learning that neighbor country had agreed to defend the inde- pendence fo another neighbor, char acterized that agreement as threat and an 'encirclement.' Yet there is no such thing as encircling or threatening or .imprisoning any na- tion by other peaceful nations. We have reason to know this in our own experience"
 Pledge To Canada MT. Roosevelt cited last summers pledge to defend Canada and last winters agreement at Lima among 21 American republics that they would coordinate their efforts to de- fend their institutions from direct or indirest attack. He recalled the 1886 Pan American conference agreement to consult together" Ii

 In the Nome-Alaskan game a fifth inning incident occurred in which an Alaskan player actual ly scored on two successive times at bat although declared out the first time He also scored another runner. This led to such tangle of discussion that a league meet ing has been called for Sunday at 1:30 to determine whether an AL askan protest shall be allowed on the uncounted disputed run.
