Sinking Of Nine Ships
Claimed by Germans

BERLIN, January 80 R. DE-
struction of nine ships in the North
Sea by German planes was pre-
sented today as Nazi birthday
gift" to Hitler.
The official German news agency
DBN said seven enemy conveyed
armed merchant ships" and two
patrol vessels, totalling 21,378 tons,
were sunk yesterday, and that a
British plane was shot down near
Hartlepool.
All German planes returned safe
ly, the agency said (The British
acknowledged no sinkings, but said
IA larger ships and numerous trawl-
ers had been attacked)
Praise for the German planes and
their claim to supremacy in the
North Sea dominated newspapers,
alongside eulogies of Hitler and his
works.
Authorized sources bitterly at
tackled French Premier Daladier's
speech last night, terming it more
hysterical even than (Winston)
Churchill's." These sources viewed
M. Daladier's remarks as an effort
to frighten neutrals to join the allies

Mine Workers Oppose
U. 5. Loans, but Offer
Sympathy 10 Finland
Convention Expresses
Sympathy, but Fears
Any Involvement
Nv the Associnted Press

BY the Associated Press.
COLUMBUS, Ohio, Jan. 30.-The
United Mine Workers of America
today opposed any Government
loans to Finland.
A resolution adopted at the union S
annual convention expressed sympa-
thy for heroic Finland and other
victims of aggression" but said 1t
would be better policy for this Ma
ton to withhold ANY money or par
ticipation directly or indirectly in
wars in Europe and Asia"
Peace must be preserved, but
Congress should not do anything to
involve the United States" the reso-
luton added.
Another resolution condemned
what it termed the inef11ciency Of
the Wage-Hour law and urged
larger appropriations to better the
acts enforcement.
1t said "Tory representatives in
Congress under the leader
ship of Garner have threatened the
very life of the act with crippling
amendments" 1t referred to Vice
President John N. Garner.
The union also indorsed pending
legislation to restrict use of the Ma
tionaj Guard in labor disputes.
Third Term Resolutions.
Before the convention also were
At resolutions advocating a third
term for President Roosevelt, whose
administration has been condemned
vigorously by U. M. WIS president,
John L. Lewis, in the week-old ses-
sion.
Action on the resolutions had been
expected today, but John Owens,
Resolutions Committee chairman,
said they probably would not be
considered before tomorrow.
Rampant speculation on what &C
ton the convention would take on
the proposals, especially since they
conflict with Mr. Lewis stand, pre-
ceded the Resolutions Committee S
report.
The United Mine Workers presi-
dent not only predicted "ignomin-
ious defeat" for a third-term cam
paign, but urged his 2,400 delegates
from q States and Canada to with
hold immediate Endorsement of a
presidential candidate.
There were many timers, how
ever, who believed Mr. Lewis, despite
his denunciation of the Democratic
party for breaking faith with
labor. was not terribly angry with
Mr. Roosevelt.
Might Support Roosevelt.
They believed their leader still had
great admiration for the President
and would support him for re-elec-
ton if the Democrats granted the
C. I. o. chiefs requests TOR more
concessions to labor.
The situation ha. confused many
Lewis followers. They want to re-
main loyal to him, yet they say
they can't disregard the Presidents
contributions to labor
why, we might not even be here
at this convention were it not for
the Presidents help to our union"
one delegate exclaimed.
The confusion has been increased
by the third-term Endorsements by
powerful C. I. o. unions, such as the
Amalgamated Clothing Workers of
America.
Typical of the Al resolutions from
nine States was one from Little
Short Creek. Ohio:
"Since President Roosevelt did so
much good for the working class in
this country since he has been in
Office, we the members of Local
Union 4,472 think that President
Roosevelt should be Endorsed for
the third term by the convention"

Ghost" The Orthodox believe that
the Holy Ghost proceeds from the

This disagreement was one OF the

Of the Jewish idea OF Coda per-
