Air Base Deal Favors u. s.,
Wallace Declares
By the Associated Press

By the Associated Press.
GALESBURG, Ill, Sept. S.
Henry A. Wallace. Democratic can
didate for Vice President, believes
the United States obtained naval
and air bases from Great Britain
under exceptionally favorable"
terms.
The British say they will never
surrender or sink their fleet in the
event the waters around the British
Isles become untenable," he said in
a campaign speech last night, and
then asked rhetorically:
But can we be sure about the
British fleet? When the French
reached their final extremity, what
did they do about the French fleet?"
Therefore," he added, Il think it
was for the best interests of our Sc
curity that such prompt action was
taken to get these bases and think
we obtained them on terms excep-
tionally favorable to us"
Declaring there must be no eco
nomic appeasement of Adolf Hitler
by nations of the Western Hemis-
phere, the candidate said:
Unless the Americas present a
solid front the day will come when
these countries will go the way OF
the democracies of Europe"

The base in British Guiana is to
be located within so miles Of
Georgetown, the colonial capital.
This base is of vital Importance to
the hemisphere defense plan because
it will make it possible for the
United States to ward off attacks
on Northern South America from a
strategically located base. Patrols
can be maintained as far as the
mouth of the Amazon from the
Guiana base, which also will be
suitable for patrol planes and small
warships.
Antigua and st. Lucia will be
useful chiefly as intermediate patrol
bases to cover the gap between
Trinidad and the powerful Army
and Navy air and sea bases now
under construction in Puerto Rico.
The Bahamas base also will increase
the strength of the protection be-
tween Puerto Rico and the Florida
coast, experimenting the already
strong naval and air base at
Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.

TREATY BATTLE

WASHINGTON - The 10 Re-
publican members Of the House
WAYS and Means committee today
denounced the administrators
reciprocal trade agreements pro-
gram as unconstitutional and
failure.
The minority report to the COM
mittee's recommendation that the
program be extended three years
beyond the June IL expiration date
brought immdiate charges OF a
partisan attack" from Committee
Chairman Robert L. Doughton, D.,
In. c.
The report criticized virtually
every claim made by supporters
| of the program, contending it had
failed to extend export markets
or to contribute to world peace.
The House begins consideration
OF the bill to extend the program
|next week. The debate will be
along partisan lines. virtually all
Republicans being opposed to the
program. In the senate some
Democrats may oppose it on the
xrounds that the body should be
=xranted the right to ratify the
agreements.

A SPOKANE superior court
decision to the effect that
the installation of parking
meters on downtown streets
is against the states funda-
mental law and violates the
citizens right to free use Of
streets has come as a CON-
plete surprise to laymen and
attorneys alike. The parking
meter has been so successful
in various parts of the coun-
try that installations have
grown by leaps and bounds,
much to the satisfaction of
the motorists and the Off
cials directly concerned. Their
use in this state is now
threatened as a result of the
Spokane judges decision.
Undoubtedly a movement
TO appeal that decision to the
state supreme court will be
undertaken. 1t is to be hoped
so. The question of parking
meters legality in this state
should be quickly and conclu-
sively settled. Only the su-
preme court can do so. Pro-
ponents and opponents of the
parking meter should join in
getting a decision from the
states highest legal author
ity.
FOLLOWING upon the heels
of a similar lecture series
so successfully held last year,
the Talmud Torah synagogue.
through Rabbi Baruch |. Trei-
ger, is holding a new series OF
lectures on 1.-THE World of
Tomorrow" First of the
series of eight dissertations
will be held in the Jewish
church Monday evening next.
The lectures, arranged on a
|non-sectarian basis, are much
worthwhile in these troubled
times. Experts in their par
|ticular fields will review his
tory and PHILOSOPHERS behind
many present day world
movements and suggest ways
land means to achieve a higher
and better civilization. Not
only will prominent Tacoma
|e du ca tors and sociological
leaders take part, but the
faculty of the University of
Washington has been called
upon to offer Some Of its out
standing members to particl-
pate.
Topics of the lecture series
| give ample opportunity to de.
|velop the world of tomorrow
theme. For example, the first
lectures will be on "Diagnos-
ling a Sick World" followed
|by others on youth, women,
religion, science, society and
mental hygiene and the COM
munity in the future.
1t is an instructive and
much to be desired chance to
keep abreast of these chang
ling times.

Criminal Action Is
Sought Against 270
Signers, But Only
One Is Arrested

The two embattled commits
sioners of Drainage District
No. %, near Falkland, F. c.
Cooley and P. f. Kronlund,
fighting recall action since
last Aug. %, each gave and
took a blow Friday afternoon.
Cooley, who is secretary of the
commissioners. has done most OF
the fighting, but Perry Kronlund
joined in Friday by starting a
criminal action on his own initia-
tive. demanding arrest Of all the
signers of the recall petition
against him for criminal libel.
That would have meant about
270 persons, so Kronlund was per-
suaded to select one man for
arrest.
Freeman Selected
Nominated for the honor" was
Blaine Freeman, 62-year-old farm
er. of Route 3. Box SIS. Tacoma,
who not only signed the recall pc
tition but also happens to be a
candidate in the March IL election
for Kronlund's job.
Commissioner Kronlund charged
that the petition signer exposed
him to hatred. contempt. ridicrie
and obloquy and did deprive Nun
of the benefit of public confidence
and social intercourse by malicious
publication which imputed
dishonesty in his capacity as COM
missioner OF drainage district No.

Released On Bond
After learning the arrested man
also was a candidate, Justice
Clarence f. Layton who issued
the warrant, released Freeman on
bond.
Commissioner Cooley. on the
other hand, found himself the
object OF a second mandamus
action by residents OF his district
seeking recall Of him and OF kron-
lund. Judge Ernest NJ. Gard late
in the day signed an alternative
writ Of mandate. citing Cooley to
appear before him Feb. II and
show cause why he should not
accept the recall petitions and set
a date for the recall election se-
cording TO his duties as board
secretary.
