Is 'Deceiving' Public
On Defense Program

Powers May Be Led
To Cause Trouble
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK. Oct. 22.-Wendell L.
WILKES statements on defense
preparations and the administra-
tons foreign policy were termed
misleading" and "deceiving" yes
terday by Senator Byrnes, Democrat,
of South Carolina, who intimated
the Republican candidate was in
directly encouraging foreign nations
to cause trouble" for the United
States.
The Senator. who attended a press
conference with Democratic Chair
man Edward J. Flynn. asserted Mr..
Willkh's criticism of the defense
program probably would not inf1u-
ence any large number Of Ameri-
can people.
But I do fear" he added, that
he may deceive some people repre-
senting foreign governments, who,
If they believe we are as helpless as
he says we are. might be Influenced
to do something that would cause
trouble.
Foreign Policy Stand.
"And I do believe that he may
cause people down in the South
American republics to believe. that
if we are as helpless as he says we
are. there is no use to rely on us"
Saying that Mr.. Willkie had in
general Endorsed the administra-
tons foreign policy, Senator Byrnes
commented that in some mysteri-
Gus way Mr.. Willkie says that If
you follow these policies under
President Roosevelt you will be at
war, but that if you follow them
under me (Willkie) you will remain
at peace"
Senator Byrnes said he did not
believe any President would be
guilty Of making secret treaty or
agreement with a foreign power"
Mr.. Willkie has repeatedly asked
Mr.. Roosevelt whether any such
secret agreement exists.

High seas and a burning tropical
sun made their plight difficult from
the start. After the first few days,
the mate limited the daily rations
to two marine crackers which were
shared by the 10 men.
Rain fell on the fourth day, and
they caught some in a container

On the tenth day, the desperate
seamen spied smoke on the horizon

dashed when the distant steamer

Henry A Wallace charged here to-

interests do control the majority of
Republican votes in Congress and
they will consent to no effective
farm program, no matter what
promises the candidates make"
Mr.. Wallace, Democratic nominee
for the vice presidency, said that

national leadership of the Republi-

He predicted that when peace
comes in Europe and Asia, when
men are discharged by the millions
from the armament plants, and
when Europe is unable to take our
surplus farm products except on a
short time charitable basis, If the

AIcutruz Penitentiury

Reports that the Department Of
Justice has no intention of abolish
ing Alcatraz Penitentiary in San
Francisco Bay, despite the severe
indictment of the prison by Frank
Murphy while he was At1prney Cen
eral, have occasioned little surprise
on the part of persons familiar with
the history and accomplishments of
that much discussed Federal insti-
tuition. While Attorney General
Robert Jackson, presumably out Of
respect for his predecessor, has re-
Trained from making any formal
announcement on the subject, the
Federal Prisons Bureau is following
business as usual" policy at the
island prison. Officials of the bureau
are convinced that "The Rock" as
the underworld refers to the estab-
lishment, serves a very useful pur-
pose-and the record of the unique
maximum security" institution
since it's founding in 1884 by former
Attorney General Homer Cummings
would seem to justify this opinion.
Mr. Murphy might not have found
Alcatraz so Objectionable had he
taken more time to investigate it.
AS a matter of fact, he paid but one
brief visit to the place Git is said he
spent less than half an hour on the
island during a Western trip last
year, and that was after a visit to
a new minimum security" prison
farm. Naturally, the contrast was a
sharp one, especially upon cursory
inspection. When he returned to
Washington he told reporters he had
been deeply distressed by what he
saw at Alcatraz and that he planned
to do away with the island peni-
tentiary in favor of a place of con-
f1nement of the farm type somewhere
on the mainland.
But it is obvious that Mr.. Murphy,
in making such a remarkable pro-
posal, failed to take into considera-
ton the nature of the population at
Alcatraz; that in seeking to make
life more pleasant for the three
hundred-odd hardened criminals Of
the recidivist type confined on the
island he was overlooking the perils
that would result for society If these
kidnapers, bank robbers and other
gangsters were transferred to a
prison farm. Many of these con-
victs are escape artists" some Of
them with long records as prison
trouble makers and break -plotters.
Some of them, like George (Ma-
chine Gum Kelley of the Urschel
kidnapping, have boasted that no
prison permanently can conflne
them. These are the desperadoes
who, while in mainland prisons, re-
peatedly engineered fatal riots and
breaks with guns smuggled to them
