President BIasts Issues Raised by COP; Remarkable
 Talk Made in phiIade| phia

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Oct. 24.-! Interrupted by cheers from a crowd that packed Convention Hall and overflowed into the streets where the words were carried by loud speakers, President Roosevelt de- clared flatly last night that the present Administration has no se- cret obligations with any other nation, nor does it wish to lead the United States into war with any foreign power.
 Making his first strictly political speech of the campaign. the Pres ident bitterly assailed the Republi- can party for what he termed de liberate Notifications of fact"
 Another False Charge
 President Roosevelt continued: Tonight there is one more false charge-made to strike terror into the hearts of our citizens. It is q charge that this Administration wishes to lead this country into war We are arming ourselves not for any foreign war, we are arm- ing ourselves not for any purposes of conquest or intervention in for eign disputes. It is for peace have labored and 1t is for peace I shall labor all the days of my fife
 COP. False Alarm
 President Roosevelt further said: The worst bombshell of fear which Republican leaders have let loose on this people is the accusation that this Government, without the knowledge of the Congress or of the people, has secretly entered into agreements with foreign na- tions. I give you this most solemn assurance-there is no secret treaty. no secret obligation, no secret com mitment, no secret understanding in any shape or form, direct or irl- direct, with any other government. Or any other nation in any part of the world. to involve this nation in any war or for any other pur- pose"

WASHINGTON-There is one ex- treinely significant development III aerial warfare over London the Nazis are not losing as many planes as they once did These are the reports cabled to American news papers, also the reports cabled by official U. s. observers, from Lon don
 Behind this is change i'll Ger man tactics, motivated by the fact that Hitlers air losses during the first month of aerial bombardment were much heavier than he could afford. Very briefly, here is the chapter by chapter history of Ger man air experimentation over Lon don:
 l. First attacks were in large formations; wave after wave of planes came over, but were easy targets and were shot down in dis astrously large numbers.
 9 Second came droves of sim BE pldlicS, ny HE dI AlllCiCho oieA- tudes and thus harder to hit But casualties continued high.
 3. Next came small squads of about three planes at time, flying from all directions. With this tech nique German casualties dropped considerably
 A. Today, the Nazis have gone back to dive bombing, plus a com- bination of other types of attack
 During all this experimentation, the Nazis also had been busy re- vising armament on the outside of their planes, and their guns. Un- doubtedly this also helped cut down casualties.
 At present both sides are shoot ing down about the same number of planes. Meanwhile Nazi super iority in air strength continues at about 3 to 1. Chief improvement of the British position comes as a result of the big bombers they have purchased from the United States --------

 In San Francisco, retiring Jap anese Ambassador Kensuke Horin- ouchi is quoted as saying that a peace agreement is lacking only 'fi nal official action" between Gen. Chiang Kai Shek and Ching Wei, Japanese dominated Puppet ruler in Nanking.
 T believe the terms are along the lines stated by the Japanese Government two years ago. the re- tiring Ambassador said, and he probably had reference to Premier Konoyes statement of December 12, 1888, suggesting basis for peace on the following terms:
 One-Japan will respect Chinese Sovereignty.
 Two-Japan will discuss giving up her extraterritorial right in China
 Three-Japan will not demand either territory or indemnity from China.
 Four-In return for peace, Japan
