Fights Perjury Charge

Arguments on the demurrer in the
case of George Sylvester Viereck of
New York, indicted as a Nazi agent.

Through his demurrer, Viereck is
attacking the legality of the indict-
ment. the Government charges
that although Viereck registered
with the State Department he failed
to comply with the law and give a
full disclosure of his activities.
These activities, Viereck contends,
do not constitute violation of the
Foreign Agents Registration Act,
and hence the indictment is not
valid ~ 49,. .s.

ough's court this mornisg George
Hill, second secretary TO Represent

American Schedules
Carnegie Tech for
Two-Game Series
First Contest Is Slated
For Washington in 1912;
Eagles Plan to Build

American University and Carnegie
Tech today reached an agreement
for home -and-home football series
between the schools.
In announcing Carnegie Techs
addition to the schedule, Staff Cas-
sell, director of athletics and head
football coach at American u, said
the first game will be played here
November 7, 1912, and that the
Eagles will play in Pittsburgh No
vember 13, 1943.
Mr.. Cassell discussed negotiations
with Clarence Overend, director OF
athletics at Carnegie Tech, who
made the initial overture to Amer
ican. Carnegie announced pro-
gram of de-emphasized intercollegi-
ate football several years ago and
has gradually scaled down its sched-
uleS since. Notre Dame and de-
emphasized Pittsburgh are its ma
jor opponents this season.
Won't Go Beyond Limit.
TN scheduling Carnegie it is not
a case of American University going
out of its class to seek competition, p"
Mr.. CaSsell said. I'VE are in the
process of building up our athletics
to a plane compatible with our as
sociations. We do not intend to go
beyond that limit.
Carnegie, on the other hand, Is
scaling down its program to such an
extent that I believe our teams will
be evenly matched next year. Car
negie is colorful and is well known
and I believe it will be worthwhile
addition to the Districts football
program"
Georgetown, through Graduate
Manager Rome Schwagel, was be-
leved cooperating with American
to give it clear field the day of the
game. The Hoyas are dickering with
Manhattan for a game the same day
the Eagles and Skibos are scheduled
to meet next year, but will make
arrangements to play out of town or
Friday night.
Only Noteworthy Change.
Carnegie Is believed TO be the only
noteworthy change in Americans
schedule for next year. Allegheny,
Susquehanna, Hampden Sydney
and other teams of that caliber, all
long standing A. U. rivals, are be-
lieved back on the potential list.
Tech, which held Notre Danes
unbeaten Irish to 1910 count a
couple of weeks ago, has won only
one game this season, 1910 victory
over Albright. 1t has lost to Geneva,
Muhlenberg and Westminster.
American has a similar record,
drubbing Johns Hopkins, 210, for
its lone victory, and bowling to Allie
ghany, Swarthmore and Susque-
hanna.

HUMANITARIAN
(Orange NeWs)

The man among men in the United
States entitled to be known as the great
humanitarian" of his generation Is Her
bert Hoover. The work that man dld'
much of it at his own personal expense
and without thought Of reward IN any
manner. shape or form. during the tlrSt
World War in making food available to
the stricken millions of Europe still
shines as a brilliant light in an era other
wise darkened by jealousy and greed.
Nor can any amount of criticism lev
eled at Mr.. Hoover either during his
presidential term, or subsequently, dim
the record of that altruistic service.
Another war is on and again Herbert
Hoover is insisting that similar relief,
food. be provided for the people of Nazl-
occupied Europe. Whether Mr.. Hoover
is right in his contention that relief can
be provided for the starving children and
non-combattantS in Europe without 1t
falling into the hands of the Germans,
or whether the American government is
correct in taking the British view that
such food supplies will merely prolong
the War is point ON which we, like most
others cannot form an opinion.
That Mr.. Hoover is moved by SIN
cere sympathy for the distressed cannot
be denied. And when you read that Hoo
yer criticizes the government for adopt
ing "a policy of starvation and death for
these democratic peoples because 1t IS Il
British policy" don't fail to recall that
ATTEMPTS were once mad to 'cruclfY'
Hoover on the ground that he was pro-
British.

IS IT NECESSARY FOR
Us TO TAKE THE RISk:9

There has been too much left unSald
in all discussions Of the merchant ship
ping issue.
The American public. for instance. has
never been told whether it is actually
necessary that other ships. in addition
to Brtan'S own. be utilized to serve the
British Isles with food and War suppleS
If the ships are necessary, then by all
means let Us send them. But first let us
know how necessary the move is. Before
a single American ship is dispatched in
cargo to any British port, we believe the
American people have a right to have
these questions answered:
Has Great Britain enough ships TO car
ry the cargoeS she needs?
Is Great Britain using what ships she
does have to carry needed cargoeS to her
homeland. or is she using a great many
ships in uninterrupted foreign CONNER
cal trade not primarily necessary to her
war effort?
Does Great Britain want American
ships to negotiate the dangerous waters
of the war zones. while her own ships
ply far safer trade routes more remote
from hostiIities?
There are some who may say that
Great Britain cannot afford to answer
these questions. and that our admins
tration would be without courtesy IT 1t
attempted to give the answers to the Am
lean people.
War may depend upon the answers,
howcvcr-aud we say the administration
first duty is to the people Of this nation.

as an aftermath of the boards ruling
against John l.. Lewis demands in the
captive coal mine dispute. should be fol-
lowed Immediately hy the resignation
Of Madame Perkins aS secretary OF labor,
and her entire staff
The merits of tn closed shop demand
made by Lewis or the obnoxious atutude
taken by the mine operators IN their deal
inpS with employees are no longer peril
nent in the present controversy. The
mediation boards ruling, by 9 to vote,
was made after due consideration OF
Lewis demands but It WAS no sooner
announced than the ClO members OF the
board resigned Had the boards ruling
gone the other way, there would have
been no designations.
The attitude displayed Is simple proof
that Lewis and his henchmen are willing
to 20 to almost any length to maintain
the positions to which they were elevat-
ed by the impotent attitude of the de-
partment of labor and intended to en-
force their demands regardless of the
national emergency or any other factor
involving the welfare of this country.
Lewis rule or ruin attitude in this and
other disputes is intolerable and is doing
immeasurable harm TO the cause Of labor
His personal vanity and his apparent
intense hatred of President Roosevelt
are the stumbling blocks. He has no pub
lie support and it is doubtful if he has
the support of the rank and file Of his
own union. but they have no voice.
In the showdown, the President must
assert himself and, if he intends to main
tain the governments position IN this
controversy, and thus clean up scores
of other labor disputes, he had better
make clean sweep and set up new Ia

A FEW OBSERVATIONS
ON FOREIGN POLICY

With the lifting of neutrality act re
StrIctonS aud in view Of recent rapid
fire developments the foreign policy of
the United States government Is better
defined today a. TO basic conceptions
than at Any time since Europe burst into
war.
In thu light of the new definitions.
it is well to take stock. 1t is we'll to ask
few questions. and to seek more thor
Ough definitions under some Of the sub
heads which are almost aS vitality I'M
pOrtant TO this country as are the puNc-
ipal aims Of the foreign policy. itself
Because Of congressional action in re
pCaling restrictions against armlnE of
merchant ships and entrance OF mcr-
chant ships into war zones. the admins
tration now has virtually complete con-
troll of developments. What happens now
will happen because the administration
wishes it 10 happen, or because the ad-
miniStration Is willing to risk that 1t
will happen.
The administration can send American
merchant ships into war zones in great
numbers. or prevent their going. What
is the policy to be"
The administration can use the new
freedom Of shipping as an excuse to
broaden the navy'S patrol zone to the
whole surface of all of the seven seas.
What is the policy to be in this respect?
Everything hinges upon the use made
by the administration of its discretion in
the matter of merchant shipping. Upon
how il is handled may depend even the
answer to the question, will we go into
a declared var
As = moral blow to Germany and the
congroSs5oa..l action was exceedingly eff
fecti,4 L vas because Of the moral
effect. i. 5ac.. ;Aat large number of

they believed that any big number of

service direct to Britain, or to any other
of the explosive war zones, many would
have voted tie other way.
