der charge.
Police Chief J. T. Daley of sub
urban Decatur said the man was
l. F. Scott. 38, and declared he
thought Scott had suddenly be-
come deranged mentally.
Postman R. c. Woods. jr,, 80, was
shot seven times. Mrs. L. F. Scott,
30. was in a critical condition.

Scott pummeling her, Chief Daley
asserted. when he broke in.

our wide oceans separating us from
Europe, Asia and Africa. Still others
will regret the amount of money be-
ing spent on national defense. They
are against universal service, the
only democratic way that can pro-
tect the wheels of industry from be-
coming jammed in an effort Of this
kind. You will be called upon to
weigh such thinking and remarks
and the subversive activities that
follow in their wake on the scales Of
justice.
Our mode of life has never been
so challenged as it is now. The
recent military alliance of Japan,
Germany and Italy is directed at
us. We are the largest obstacle in
the path of the totalitarian powers
Should Great Britain fail to stem
the tide of ever advancing tyranny,
we shall find ourselves surrounded
by these international brigands.
whose greatest victory would be the
destruction Of the United States.
Never understanding us. they sup
pose our people can be brought
under their iron rule. Both as an
American and as an official OF the
Navy, I know differently. If fignt
is forced upon us we shall be
ready for them. We have never lost
war yet.
Must Be Able to Win
In Two Oceans at Once.
An adequate Navy at this time
demands that we shall be able TO
meet enemies far from our own
shores and defeat them in 5cth
oceans-simultaneously, If necessary.
The conquest of Europe and the pos
sibly successful invasion Of England
are problems we must face now,
realistically, with swift action.
The acquisition of eight bases
from Great Britain in exchange for
some of our overage destroyers has
moved the Atlantic theater OF naval
action 1000 miles further eastward.
Patrol bombers operating from these
bases working in coordination with
surface ships will allow us to meet
the enemy in mid-ocean.
Doubling the number of our COM
batant ships brings increases all
along the line. Thousands OF planes
must be built and auxiliary vessels
acquired, such as supply ships
cargo vessels, ammunition and hos
pital ships. Personnel must be
trained to man these ships and
planes. Every shipyard in America
is working at capacity. Industry is
coming up to our expectations. 1t
must be remembered that this huge
naval family is a potential market
for all the essentials necessary to
man.

There is no finer service than the

Col. Knox's Paper
Assai|s Wilkes
Cleveland Speech
Attack on RooseveIt's
Foreign Policy Criticized
In Editorial
Gpecial Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The star.
CHICAGO. Oct. 5-The Chicago
Daily News, owned by Secretary of
War Knox, said in an editorial yes
terday that Wendell Wilkes
peace" speech at Cleveland last
Wednesday night was IAN insult to
the peoples intelligence"
The newspaper, the direction Of
which was turned over to board of
three staff members when Mr.. Knox
entered the cabinet. criticized the
Republican presidential nominee for
some of his charges against Presi-
dent Roosevelt Mr.. Knox was Re-
publican vice presidential candi-
date in 1886.
The Daily News editorial said in
part:
In the grave crisis confronting
this Nation. in the grave decision
that the people must make next
November S, we have supported and
we shall probably continue to sup
port. the candidacy of Wendell Will
kie. But we did not like the peace
speech he made at Cleveland last
Wednesday night. In fact, We think
it was an insult to the peoples in
telligence. Either Mr.. Willkle ac-
tually believed what he said. or he
said it for political reasons without
believing it, or he listened to some
very bad advice, and we don't
know which is worse.
~"Mr. Willkie is on record. again
and again, as favoring aid to Britain
and China, and a strong national
defense. Only a few hours before
making the Cleveland speech he
took credit-deservedly-for his ef-
forts to give unity to certain i'm
portant aspects of our foreign
policy and to avoid any risk or
any suspicion in foreign minds OF
a disagreement in this country on
our fundamental attitude toward
aggression Yet, at Cleveland, ne
strongly attacked the defense and
foreign policies of the present ad-
ministration, thereby deliberately
undoing whatever good he may have
done by his earlier statement.
"Mr. Willkie again charged Presi-
dent Roosevelt with responsibility
for the betrayal of Czecho-Slovakia
at Munich in 1898. Mr.. Roosevelt
can properly be charged with many
things. He has played fast and
loose with the national finances.
His economics is deplorable. His
social experiments have mostly been
failures. But he did not betray
the Czechs at Munich. The issue
before Munich was peace or war.
Mr.. Roosevelt urged peace, as any
American President would have
done in the circumstances. 1t was
Chamberlain and Daladier, not
Roosevelt, who sold out the Czechs,
as every one knows, including Mr..
Willkie
Mr.. Willkie also charged Mr..
Roosevelt with having failed to
prepare this Nation for war.
The reason We did not begin to
prepare in a big way for war a
year ago was that nobody. and GER
tainly neither Mr.. Roosevelt nor
Mr.. Willkie. foresaw that France
would suddenly collapse"
