Russia to Restore
Lithuanian Land
In Disputed Area

KAUNAS, (Kovno) Lithuania
Oct. 9. CUP)-Russia has agreed
to restore to Lithuania all parts
OF the Wilma district which are in
habited by Lithuanians, as well
as the local districts of Swenzi-
any and Traki and the city OF
Viina, it was reported today in
usually reliable quarters.
Russia in return required that
Lithuania pledge rights of self
determination TO minorities which
remained in the ceded area, it
was said.
The same ipformants said that
in negotiations now going on at
Moscow, Russia asked air bases at
Wilkowiski, Kosedary and Polan-
gen.
Wilkowiski is 10 miles from the
east Prussian frontier. Kosedary
is so miles from east Prussia. Po-
langen is Is miles from Memel,
which Germany seized from Lith-
uania.
Advices from Moscow said that
after a two hour formal confer
ence last night, the Lithuanian
negotiators had a personal dis
cussion with Josef Stain as the
result of which their feeling to-
day was one of optimism.

Roosevelt Stands
Pat on Mediation

WASHINGTON, Oct. 8. (UP)-
President Roosevelt returns to the
White House today still ignoring
semi official German suggestions
that he initiate a move for peace
in the European war.
Mr. Roosevelt, who received the
latest war reports by telephone dur
ing his weekend at Hyde Park,
refused to commit himself on Sug-
gestions that he take the role OF
peace maker in Europe and indi-
Gated that he was not ready to re-
spond to Nazi intimations that
Adolf Hitler would be willing TO
accept his mediation.
1t appeared likely that the United
States would stick to its policy OF
non-recognition of conquestS by
aggression, and view as interna-
tional lawlessness the German
Russian seizure of Poland-believ-
ed to be a principal point on which
Hitler would demand acquiescence
before talking peace.
That policy of non-recognition
was enunciated by Henry L. Slim
son, secretary of state in the Hoo
yer administration, shortly after
Japans seizure of Manchukuo in
1881. Under it, Poland would be
placed in the same category as five
other nations whose conquest by
aggreSsors has been unrecognized
by this government - Manchukuo,

Ethiopia, Austria, Czechoslovakia,

The non-recognition thesis is
based on the international legal
principle that seizure of territory
does not extinguish sovereignty
but constitutes only military occu-
patton until a treaty of peace has
been ratified confirming any ex-
changes or grants of territory.
Secretary of State Cordell Hull
said last week that Poland was "the
victim of force used as an instru-
ment of policy" and that the Unit
ed States was maintaining diplo-
matte relations with the newly
formed Polish government in Paris.
He emphasized that mere seizure
of territory did not extinguish SOW
ereignty of a government.

Nozis Taken Out
O. Baltic States

HELSINGFORS, Finland, Oct. O.
(UP)-German ships were in Es-
thonian and Latvian harbors today
to begin the repatriation of 10000
Germans in a move regarded as q
tacit admission that Russia was to
dominate the inner Baltic.
Russia had obtained naval and
air force bases in Esthonia and Lat
via and was negotiating for bases in
Lithuania.
Now Russia had invited Fin
land to enter an agreement which,
according to diplomatic reports,
would include the concession to
Russia Of naval and air base rights
in the Finish Aaland islands, be-
tween Finland and Sweden, and the
island of Hogland in the gulf Of
Finland 12O miles west OF Lenin-
grad and Kronstadt, Russias big
Baltic naval base.
Though Finnish sources natural
ly were reticent in the circum-
stances, it was reported that Fin
land was not prepared to give in
without a stout resistance by ali
diplomatic means it could muster.
Particularly, it was said, Finland
would oppose any Russian plan to
fortify the Aalands, and it was re-
ported that Foreign Minister j. E.
Erkko had refused to go personally
to Moscow. At any rate, he was
not scheduled to go-as had gone
the foreign ministers of other Bal
tic countries-but delegated Juho
Imperial Valley press., 1939-10-09

Paasikivi, Finnish minister to
Sweden, as special envoy.
Further, Finland made it plain
that it preferred, in any negotia-
tionS with Russia, to be regarded
not as one of the Baltic" coun-
tries but rather as one of the
Scandinavian" bloc, along with
Sweden, Norway and Denmark.
Passikivi was expected to go to
Moscow today. 1t was understood
that Finland would have the sup
port of Sweden in opposing Rus
sian fortification of the Aalands,
but there seemed some prospect
that Russia might be conceded spe-
cial rights on Hogland island and
possibly couple of other small
islands which, from the Russian
viewpoint, might be a real men
ace to her if held by a powerful
enemy. This, however, was not con-
firmed by any Finnish source and
was simply the result of Baltic
diplomatic speculation.
AS part Of the preparations for
negotiations with Russia, the Fin
nlsh government called upon fur
ther classes of reservists. To the
regular army of 10000 men had
been added 100000 territorials, and
another 100000 were ready for a
call. These men were placed STRAIT
egically not on the Russian from
tier but near the frontier, where
communications could be out.

 Do you, like Madge, hate to face @ roomful of people, hide in the dressing-room? Are you afraid you can't talk to strangers, afraid you'll make social blunders, that you're too awkward to dance?
 Why not pattern yourself after Betty? Instead of hiding away go out and join the crowd. Others are eager to like you if you show that you like them.

Stepmother Must Win Love Of Child Over Handicaps

 No two situations are the same. have no advice to give. That would be a presumption. But my idea Is that the instinct of most women tells them what to do, in such e case. To make friends is necessary in any undertaking. It is quite as necessary to the suc- cess of the stepmother. And making friends means good hu- nor, selfishness, comraderie and sportsmanship. These appeal to honor in the child, and eventually lead to affection.
