 "qIhe very people under their iron heel will, themselves, rebel" he said.
 we, alive today,-not in the existant Democracies alone but also among the populations of the smaller nations already overrun, are thinking in the larger terms of the maintenance of the new order to which we have been accustomed and In which we intend to continue"
 MT. Roosevelt said that despite travail in the world today man. kind still recognizes the eternal ver- ities that lie with us in the future of man.
 You, the men of 1917 and 1918, helped to preserve those truths of Democracy for our generation" MT Roosevelt said.
 We Still Unite
 2, We still unite, we still strive nightly to preserve intact that new order of the ages founded by the IatnerS or AmerlCd,
 MT. Roosevelt traced the begin nings of orderly government from the days of the Democracy of the Ancient Greeks, through the 1mper- ialism of the Roman dictators, the crusades, the feudalism of the Mid de Ages, the renaissance and dowr to the time when the American colonies rebelled against Great Bri- tain. We still live in the age of oui Revolutionary forefathers, he said.
 Those beginnings (of Democ- racy) found their freest develop ment in the colonies that were or ganized along the seaboard oi North America he said. There, by the processes of trial and error Democracy as 1t has since been &C., cepted in so many lands, had its birth and its training.
 '"There came into being the first far flung government in all the world whose cardinal principle was Democracy-the United States oi America"
 The march of Democracy led by America, and the British Isles, MT Roosevelt said, had Its first great challenge in 1914 and it hurled the challenger back.
 At 3:30 D. rn., he speaks after lay ing the cornerstone of the new na- val medical center at Bethesda, Md This speech will be carried to the nation by radio too.

 Rome, Nov. 10. - (UP)-Italian planes "intensively bombed" Brit iSh naval formation In the central Mediterranean and scored hits on two cruisers in waters of the island of Crete, the official communique said today.
 The communique indicated wide spread Italian aerial activity throughout the Mediterranean and African areas. Successful Italian raids on Alexandria, Malta, the Cairo airdrome, Ismailia on the Suez Canal, and in the Gallabat sec- tor were claimed.
 British naval bombardment of Italian positions at Sidi Barrani were said to have caused neither casualties nor damage, while Brit ish air raids on five or six Italian points in Africa were said to have resulted in but two deaths and a number of wounded among natives.
 Heavy anti-aircraft fire was re- ported from the British naval for nation overtaken in the central Mediterranean by an Italian air squadron. The British warships were "intensiyely bombed" despite the fire, the communique said.
 "At Malta our pursuit planes ma chine-gunned three enemy bj-mo- tored planes on the ground. Two of our planes failed to return said the communique

ITALY, GREECE IN
 DEATH STRUGGLE
(Continued from Page Il

Italian prisoners were quoted that communications at the Italian rear were in bad shape and that the high command was having difficulty keeping in contact with the far flung units.
 A hundred more Italian prisoners have arrived at Salonica and some Of them were quoted that anti-war agitation was growing among the Italian public, with Crown Prince Umberto among those who have been outspoken in criticizing the strategical error fo the war in Greece.
 The lost division" reported vir- tually wiped out by casualties and captures, was believed here to be the Venitza Alpine division, which had expected to lead a blitzkrieg through Greece. It was surround ed by Greek mountain troops in the first day of the war and was out of contact with the main Ital- ian froce from then on, 1t was re- ported. The scene of operations was 5000 feet up in foot hills, so rough that mules could not be used. Greek women carried ammunition on their heads to outposts manned by Greek snipers, who harassed the Italians from all sides. The ground was nt- tered with Italian dead and wound ed, who fell prey to mountain wolves, according to reports from the front.

Danzig Is Bombed.

Danzig Is BOm1ed.
 London, Nov. 1l.-CUP) The air ministry said today that the Royal Air Force delivered smashing at- tack last night on the railroad june where Germany's Foreign Minister tions of Danzig-the Baltic seaport Joachim Won Ribbentrop is Sched- uled to meet the train of Soviet Premier V. NJ. Molotov tomorrow.
 The attack was concentrated, the air ministry said, on Danzig's rail- road facilities-presumably those to be used by the train bearing Molo- tov from Soviet Russia.
 According to reports of Molotov's plans, Ribbentrop was scheduled to meet the Russian premier at Danzig and escort him by airplane to Ser lin for his conferences with Adolf Hitler.
 The attack was the first which the RAF had ever made on the distant port 250 miles further to the north east than Berlin-ano involving round trip bombing flight of l6o0- miles from British bases.
 The air ministry said that the at tack on DanZig was one in an ex- tensive series in which the familiar oil refinery, transport facilities and arms works at Mannheim, Essen and Gelsenkirchen were also bombed.
 That Baltic port is 300 miles from British bases, 259 miles farther than Berlin. It was the first time British planes had raided it.
 Coincidently, it was reported in Berlin today that German Foreign Minister Joachim von Ribbentrop had gone to Danzig to meet Rus sian Premier Foreign Minister V. M. Molotov.
 Other Places Hit
 The ministry of information said Mannheim, Essen and Gelsenkichen also were raided last night but that "a full report of last nights exten- sive Royal Air force activities is not yet available"
 The air ministry said that RAF targets last night extended from the Baltic to the Bay of Biscay and in- cluded:
 The great Krupp munitions and armament plants at Essen were heavily bombed. the ministry said, and many bombs were dropped upon the Fokker aircraft works in Am sterdam.
 The attacks were hampered by severe electrical storms and icing conditions" the ministry said. Five British planes were lost. Sunday. the ministry said, day light attacks were carried out on shipping in the vicinity of Boulogne and Calais

light alarm. There were several heavy explosions, presumably bombs.
 Axis airplaneS flying over the city at the rate of one every minute hammered at British objectives all night and caused great damage in the London area.
 In the first attack of the day, 100 German raiders were reported to have crossed the southeast coast in two waves. They hovered for a time along the coast, apparently in search of shipping, then proceeded toward London.
 British spitfires and Hurricanes went up to meet them. Raiders and defenders paired of in dog fights. Forty German planes reached the outskirts of London but only four broke through to the city proper. An alarm was sounded but no bombs or gun-fire was heard
 Germans Came Back.
 Then, shortly before Il a. m, the hour customarily set aside for a moment of silence commemorating the end of the World War, the Ger mans were back over London again. The city had planned no armistice ceremonies.
 Meanwhile, the air ministry re- ported that places attacked by the Royal Air Force last night included targets in Central Germany"

Equipping Bigger Armed
Forces Brinqs Problem

The problem OF uniforming and
equipping the vast army Of con-
scripts should they be called into the
service in the next few months is
likely to prove a serious one for the
military machine Of the Government.
This has raised the gu 'tion as to
whether the men, II not promptly
equipped with the weapons and
raraphernalia which they are to be
taught to use in time Of conflict,
would get the full benefit out of a
years training which is planned for
them.
William S. Knudsen, chairman of
the National Defense Commission,
said it will be 1912 before there will
be complete equipment for 10000
men Aside from providing the
equipment for this number, the
Army must recognize that even the
National Guard is short on many
articles which it would need in the
field
During the recent maneuvers in
Northern New York State, men used
stove pipes to represent machine
guns. Tanks were represented by
trucks which had placards on their
sides designating them as such.
Military men explain. that to have

really effective training. the units
must be fully equipped with the
weapons which they are to use in
conflict.
Representative Angel said it has
been conceded that there will not
be barracks, housing facilities, med.
icA supplies, hospitals. medical and
nursing stats available to take care
of the immense number of draftees
who would be called into training
service under the provisions OF the
pending legislation.
He added that under the voluntary
system all the volunteers will be
available that can be properly
trained, housed and cared for with
such facilities as it will be possible
to provide for them at the speed
at which they are present being
indicted into the service.
Estimates now indicated, Mr.
Angel said, that voluntary enlist
ments for August will probably reach
the all-time record of $4,000 and
should reach 10000 this month
These enlistments are made under
existing regulation for three years
of service with base pay Of s21 a
month. He said that If the enlist
ments were limited to one year, as
planned for the draftee, and the
base pay raised to $50 month, it is
reasonable to believe that the enlist
ments would be very much increased
in number.

Every Civic Group Asked
To He|p Reopen Laboratory

Every civic organization in Wash

District division of the American
Automobile Association to support a
move to reopen the District mate
rails testing laboratory.
The request was made in letter,
signed by Washington I. Cleveland,
manager of the division. calling at
tention to the fact that the labora-
tory. built eight years ago at a cost
of 100000, was closed by Congress
after two years of successful opera
ton.
AS result, the letter continued,
the District Highway Department
has been obliged to have construc-
ton materials tested at the Bureau
of Standards at a cost of approx
mately $4,000 per year more than
it would have cost to make the tests
In the Districts own laboratory.
Urging repeal Of the law which
prohibits use Of the laboratory, the
letter said: ct would effect a saw
ing estimated at $4,000 per year
1t would enable the Highway De-
partment to make immediate tests
instead of being delayed by the rou-
tine at the Bureau of Standards and
it would put back in operation a
plant which cost the District tax
payers 100000"
