Lewis was said to ahve informed the broad casting companies that he will noti- fly them of his sponsoring organiza- tion IS minutes before he goes on the air.
 Counter Attack
 MT. Roosevelt's administration had already started a counter-attack to offset Lewis. Secretary of Labor Frances Perkins asserted that even outright endorsement of Willkie by Lewis would not shake rank and file labor support for the president.
 "On the basis of the record. Labor thinks that it would be better off under Roosevelt than Willkie," she said. MT. Lewis speech will not have much effect among working people who have a political interest and not a prejudice"
 Without reference to Lewis or his plans, MT. Roosevelt yesterday strongly espoused a measure, fought for by Lewis United Mine Workers, to provide for federal inspection of coal mines. Tn a letter to House Democratic leader John w. Me- Cormack, MT. Roosevelt said:
 we owe it to these men to take whatever steps are practicable and feasible to protect them against any unnecessary and avoidable risks .. and I trust that favorable action will be taken on (the bilD by the House of Representatives in the near future"

we will begin to believe it ourselves and we will immediately, obediently proceed to decay"
 MT. Roosevelt said, however, that such a belief is based on strange misconception of our national char acter." He insisted that the Demo- cratic system is essentially strong, but he warned "that the dictators are quick to take advantage of the weakness of others"
 The foreign propagandists," he continued, "despising Democracy and not knowing our strength, deem the United States an 'effete degenerate Democracy
 "They believe that we are no match for dictatorship in which uniformity is compulsory, in which each lives in terror of his neighbor, and worst still, of himself, because the dominant atmosphere is that of a concentration camp.
 "At first we dismissed this con- tempt with our traditional spirit of good humor," said MT. Roosevelt. we are now replying to it in char acteristically American terms.
 "We are preparing for the defense of the two American continents and of the oceans that are the highways of those continents. And we are doing so in mood of determination but unafraid and resolute in our will to peace"

Continued from Page D of terms which Hitler offered Petain, but Il agree that he wants foot hold in Morocco.
 Diplomatic sources reported that when Hitler asked Franco to enter the war and Franco refused, Hitler then asked the right to send troops across Spain to Gibraltar and Mor- occo, and to use Spanish ports and air bases.
 Franco May Have Refused
 Franco was reported to have re- fused on the ground that Spain was so short of food, oil and other es- sentials that he could not risk a tightening of the British blockade unless he was sure the war would end in a few weeks. The blockade would certainly be frightened not only if Spain entered the war but if it granted the Axis naval and air bases and other facilities.
 It was believed here that if the reports proved true, Britain with the indirect assistance of the United States would assist Spain in solv- ing its food and raw material prob | lenS.
 It was reported that a plan was already being considered by which Britain would help finance Spanish imports of United States wheat, cot ton and oil. United States ships, it was reported here, might be used for transport.
 Morocco is important not only be- cause it Hanks British convoy routes but because of the influence of hte United States in the war.
 When before the Arnistice the then French government planed te continue the war, it counted on the arrival of United States war mater ials at Moroccan ports. Plants fol assembling American planes hac been built near Cacablanca. AlsC Morocco might fall to the free France government, which with tht increasing flow of supplies from the United States might eventually en. gage In a movement eastward II Africa toward Libya.
 Syria Playing Part
 Balkan sources here expressed be- lief that Syria had played a prom. inent part in the Hitler-Petair talk, and that Hitler might seek tt fly several divisions of picked troop there from RImania, with Francl cooperation. The French might ever be asked to fight off any British ad vance from Palestine to intercep the Germans, it was said. Balkan sources believed that Laval woul, be willing. From Syria the Ger mans could cooperate with the Ital ian campaign in Africa. They woult also be at the gates of the Iraquial and Iranian oil fields.
 No doubt was held here tht Hit Ter had tried to win the Petain re gime over to public demonstration of approval of the "new European l order" of Germany and Italy.

would provide Spain with recogni- tion of African territorial claims and probably would make it difficult for Franco, even if he desired, to resist an Axis request for collabora- tion in attacking Gibraltar, and use of Spanish bases including those of the Canary and Madeira Islands in attacking Britain
 The unknown element in this situation was the reaction of Petain and Franco to the German pro- posals. Information from fairly re- liable sources indicated that the French rejected the offer when it first was proposed, reportedup im- mediately after the Brenner confer ence of Hitler and Premier Musso- lini.
 There was no indication in re- ports that Viclly that it had again been rejected. However, Marshal Herman Goering's Essener National zeitung, presumably with access to excellent sources of information, cautioned that present discussions were merely "feelers and soundings out"
 British sources said there were indications that Franco had rejected Axis demands for entrance into the war, passage of German and Italian troops through Spain, etc. They said he told Hitler Spain was too exhausted and too vulnerable to the British blockade to move in on the Axis side.
 However, if the German intention was to line up a continental block against Britain for the purpose of creating psychological conditions to back up peace-or- death u,timatum it was admitted that France might string along, on paper, at least.

London felt that one object of the negotiations was to create situa- tion in which the United States might be convinced that aid to Bri- tain was futile. London also thought that Germany might persuade Vichy to make some gesture before the United States elections which would seek to place all blame for incep- tion of the war upon Britain.
 German Propaganda Minister Paul Joseph Goebbels in what may have been the opening gun of a propaganda prelude to an ultima tum to Britain warned that Ger many is able and determined to continue the hostilities until the English plutocracy has been smashed"
 Warfare Goes On
 In any event the diplomatic activ- ity was accompanied today by air warfare on a scale almost as exten- sive as has been seen since the opening of the war.
 The British made a sweeping series of attacks on Germany headed up with another assault on Berlin in which the German high command admitted that fires, including one large blaze, aSsertedly in lumber yard, were. started, persons were killed and damage done to residences and apartments.
 Other British squadrons attacked Hamburg where damage and casu- alties also were admitted by the Germans, Hanover, Gelsenkirchen, Cuxhaven, Bremerhaven, Wilhelm shaven, Rotterdam, Le Havre, L. Oreitn, Ernmerich, Munster, Hamm, Bottrop ,Duisberg, Flushing, Ostend and Dunkirk.
 The Germans smashed back by sending 200 planes over London in four strong waves early the day British fighters and anti-aircraft fire kept many of the raiders from reaching the metropolis but bombs fell and one smashed 8 strete car. Italian Planes In It Germany claimed that Italian planes participated in the attack on Britain for the first time yes terday. Yesterday was reported by the British as one of the lightest days for attacks in some time. The italians also claimed that their offensive against Egypt was about to get underway and said skirmishing. on land and in the air in Africa had gone forward more actively.
 In the Far East an American chartered steamer was held up ap- parently at Japanese insistence at Hanoi. It was said to be loaded with supplies for Gen. Chiang Kali Shek. Rangoon predicted a Jap- anese atetmpt to flank Singapore by attacking Burma from Thailand, and Shanghai said the reports had been received of fighting between the Japanese and troops of their Nanking supported government. Tokyo was excited by reports of an impending non-aggression pact with Soviet Russia.

rule some 10 or 20 times, and indi- cated that he was at 8 loss to ex- plain 8 understanding in lllnols which prompted statements rom Springfleld that he would visit that state before November 5.
 The president indicated, however, that if the foreign situation qulets down In the future he might visit defense establishments in the middle west and he would like to spend Thanksgiving at warm Springs, Ga. But, he said, the international sit- uation has not quieted down.
 Revival Of Lincoln
 washington. Oct. 24-(UP)-Pres- isent Roosevelt today called for a revival of Abraham Lincolns faith in the fundamental vitality of dem- ocracy to provide "the American answer to the foreign propagandlsts who seek to divide us with ther strategy of terror"
 Speaking by radio to the annual forum conducted by the New York Herald Tribune, MT. Roosevelt drew d parallel between the fear mong- CTS, calamity howlers and appearers of the civil war era and the present day, He added that the United States is "unafraid and resolute in our will to peace"
 But he, said, America simultan- eously is preparing for the defense of the two American continents and of the oceans that are the highways of those continents.
 The address was broadcast on na- tion-wlde radio networks.
 The 10-minute speech was titled "saving democracy" and represent ed defense of the tenets of demo- cracy and a profession of faith in the ability of democratic systems to survive in a world where dictator ships are no the march.
 Tribute To Britain
 In his defense of democracy, MT. Roosevelt paid tribute to Britain'S stand against Germany. He said that the Democratic system is un- dergoing fearful test" in the strug- gle. But, he added, the structure of the democratic faith" is more enduring than marble and more precious than all that man has biult."
 we have confidence in the abil- ity of the Democratic system which gives men dignity, to give them strength" he said.
 MT. Roosevelt took as his text an address Lincoln delivered in New York city on Feb 27, 1860. He re- called that the civil war president warned his countrymen against the s'fear mongers and calamity howl ers-the 'appeasers' of that troubled time, who were numerous and in- fluential."
 He quoted an excerpt from Lin coln's address:
 Neither let us be slandered from our duty by false accusations against us, nor frightened from it by menaces of destruction to the government, nor of dungeons to our- selves. Let us have faith that right makes right, and in that faith let us to the end dare to do our duty as we understand it.
 we do well to repeat Lincoln's Mir. Roosevelt. It gives the right answer-the American answer-to declaration of faith today" said the foreign propagandists who seek to divide us with their strategy of terror.
