Government Studying Cues

Funds In This Country

WASHINGTON, Aug. 8.-R-The
first hope in many years of collect.
ing a substantial sum on the $14,-
500, 600, 600 World war debt arose
today when Secretary Morgenteau
disclosed that the government was
studying the question of Selling
some of the foreign funds frozen
in this country.
At a press conference, the secre-
tary made it plain that the admin
stration has not decided what to do
with the frozen assets, but asserted
that before they were released he
wanted ito see what happens to
over there"
He included the war debts owed
to the government, with all bust
ness and other private debts, in
this statement.
Previously he had discussed the
chance that the frozen funds might
be used to reimburse Americans
for destruction of property in in
vaded countries, but today was the
first time he acknowledged t a
war debt collection also was under
study.
The frozen funds are unofficial
lily estimated at So, 500, 600, 900.

Action Held Needed
To Rescue Anfi-Fascisi
Infe|IectuaIs in France
Columbia Professor Says
The 5000 Could Help
u. S. Combat Nuzi-ism

Prompt action by the Western
Hemisphere is needed to rescue
5000 active anti-Fascist intellectuals
from desperate straits in France,
Prof. Walter Rautenstrauch, chair
man Of the Columbia University
department Of industrial engineer
ing and New York chairman of the
American Committee for Democracy
and Intellectual Freedom, asserted
here yesterday during a brief stop
over at Washington Airport in his
plane trip. to the Pan-American
Conference in Havana.
Prof Rautenstrauch pointed out
large numbers of internationally
known artists, educators, physicians,
lawyers, writer's and scientists who
found haven in France after fleeing
Germany, Italy, Poland, Spain, Aus
tria and Czecho-S -Slovakia now are
marked" in Nazi-dominated France
because of their avowed anti-Fascist
views.
He suggested such people could
prove valuable 'if we really want
to combat Fascism In the Western
Hemisphere"
100000 Others in Danger.
In addition to the distinguished
articulate foes Of totalitarianism,
Prof. Rautenstrauch continued, ap-
proximately 100000 other refugees,
including 10000 members OF and
sympathizers with the defeated
Spanish Republican Army, are in
danger of punitive measures because
of Frances defeat.
He said the scant information
available in this country indicated
number of political refugees are
succeeding in escaping to Switzer-
land by an underground railroad"
system, dashing across the border
under cover of darkness.
Asked II it were not probable the
totalitarian regimes would seek to
frustrate any efforts to transport
admitted anti-Fascist refugees from
France to the Western Hemisphere,
the New York educator said there
were indications" obstacles might
not be placed in the way of such
attempts.
There's always the question of
building up good will when the war
is over" he commented.
To Ask Parley's Aid.
Prof Rautenstrauch, representing
a group of prominent United States
educators and churchmen, intends
to seek establishment by the Havana
Conference of q commission to study
ways and means of rescuing the
anti-Fascist refugees.
Since most of the victims have
lost funds and belongings, it will be
necessary for the American govern
ments, in cooperation with the Red
Cross and other interested agencies,
to provide funds for transportation
and re-establishment in this hemi-
sphere of such persons, he explained.
The program to be urged includes
extension Of consular protection and
visas to refugees while still In
France, admission to all nations Of
the Americas in accordance with
their respective immigration regula-
tions, arranging Of transportation
to French-controlled or Portuguese
ports and provision by the United
States of ships to carry the refugees
across the Atlantic.

nue. north, Great Falls. son OF the
Territorial Governor Leslie and uncle
of Mrs. Ford, believes that the new
governor will carry on in his executive
position and establish a record such
as that made by Governor Leslie from
Feb. 8. 1887 to April 8. 1889 when he
was instrumental in developing Mon
tana.
The period of Governor LeSlies ad-
ministration in Montana was one OF
great prosperity for the state. He also
was a great supporter and advocate
of social and educational advances.
He recommended more liberal sup
port of elementary schools and asked
the legislature to memorable congress
to donate the Fort Ellis territory in
Gallatin county for a college of ag-.
riculture and engineering. He urged
better methods of penal reform and
recommended territorial peniten-
tiary and reform school. He also asked
the legislature to purchase the private
hospital at Warm Springs as an aSy-
lum for the insane. He also pleaded
that territorial institutions should be
kept clear OF politics.

When Sam c. Ford, Helena at
torney. became MOntana's third
republican governor at the polls
this month. he carried on tradi-
ton for public office already well
established in the family of his
wife. Mrs. Ford. the former Mary
Leslie ShObe, is the granddaughter
of Preston II. Leslie. the next to
last territorial governor of Mon
tana and. before that, a governor
of Kentucky.
The governor-elect also was born in
Kentucky He went to Kansas with
his parents at an early age and was
graduated from the law school of the
University of Kansas. He came from
there to Helena where he has lived
ever since with the exception of i
four-year residence in Great Falls. He
has long been active in public life
being a former state Encouragement
and a former justice of the state su-
preme court.
In some respects his career has been
similar to that of the distinguished
grandfather of Mrs Ford in that both
practiced law, both were named to
high judicial posts and each of them
was elected governor of his state.
