of available convoy escorts.
AS long as the United States re-
mains technically at peace. its ship
ping on this side of the Atlantic is
supposedly inviolate, and a U-boat
threat should not cause any changes
being made in releases to Britain of

decided upon.

Eden and others" were again bent
on the same old policy OF disorgan-

that armament would be the only
answer to them"
Then he asserted, "They didn't
believe that I meant business. They
were simply foolish. And when q
man is a fool. he believes that every
one else Is foolish, too.
Il have armed, and armed, and
armed, and even today when they
finally realize that we are strong in
military sense they don't even
realize that they haven't even seen
anything of our strength.
"One should never tell everything
one has up ones sleeve"
Il wonder" he said, what they
weuld say if they really knew how
well armed We are, how many things
we still have that are a thousand
times as strong as the strength we
have already displayed.
"All We know is that We are ready

Scorns British Propaganda.
Hitler described the propaganda
efforts of Great Britain as "pitiful'
and went on to say that they hope
to convince us by means of that
propaganda"
He said Germany was as strong to-
day as it has ever been in its past
history"
This coming spring when we
start our U-boat warfare, you will
realize that We have not been Sleep
ing. You will realize that while
others have been planning we have
been achieving things.
I'VE are ready to begin the realiza-
ton Of our final goal" he concluded
I'VE are ready to break up world
domination, the concentration OF
special privileges in the hands of a
few. The end of the world combine
will be synonymous with the end OF
the power of Jewry in Europe.
The year that has just passed
has been a year of great victories
as we'll as losses. Many families are
suffering from the loss of some one
who was dear to them. We must
do all we can to help these people
I'VE are united today. And today
let us pray for the continuation OF
this German unity and let us also
pray to God that he will not desert
us throughout the coming year.

He declared that "the lie is con-

he said, 'our enemies are the ones

He charged Britain with wishing

been accomplished"
He assured the nation that Ger

Hitler received a noisy round OF

He followed this with an attack
upon Great Britain, during which
he declared that the last 300 years
of British history have been covered
with the blood of conflict
Hitler said it was important for
us to emphasize again and again the
injustice of a small nation like Eng

British rule, he said, had been

DETROIT, Jan. 30-Henry Ford
denied today that he had advised
Government official he would turn
his huge plants over to the Gov
ernment at 81 year rather than
permit labor unions to have a closed
shop.
Mr.. Ford made the statement in a
telephone conversation from his
winter home in Georgia to Harry
Bennett. personnel director of the
company.
Mr.. Bennett quoted the manu-
facturer as saying he had talked to
nobody about giving the plants to
the Government and that there
Is absolutely nothing to it."
Entered In Record.
The report that Mr. Ford had
made such statement was entered
In the Congressional Record yester-
day by Representative Hoffman, Re-
publican, of Michigan who said he
had it from a Michigan man whose
name he declined to disclose.
Mr.. Bennett also said officials of
the Ford company would confer with
Sidney Hillman, associate director
of the Office of Production Manage
ment, regarding defense matters if
Mr.. Hillman or William S. Knudsen,
director, asked for such a meeting.
Request for Meeting Denied.
I'VE would not turn Hillman down
on any defense conference" Mr.
Bennett said, because Mr.. Ford has
stated that he wants to do everything
that he can to help the Government
In its defense program"
He added, however, that he knew
of no request from Mr.. KnudSen for
such meeting.
Mr.. Knudsen, he said had talked
recently with Edsel Ford, president
of the Ford Motor Co., regarding CO.

Mr.. Gerard forecast bitter times
ahead.
IF Britain loses" he said, "the
Nazis may take the British fleet
threatening the life of thousands
of hostages or the destruction of all
towns. In any event, they can build
a great fleet with their resources
added to those of Belgium, Holland
and France. The German fleet be-
fore the last war almost equaled the
British.

Do not let the world think that he

Question on Open Warfare.
Senator johnson asserted that
even if no actual declaration of war
was made the course Mr.. Gerard
advocated would mean open war
fare.
1T would be actual war and they
would declare it, wouldn't they?"
Senator Johnson demanded.
That depends on what the Presi-
dent does under this BILL" the for
mer envoy replied.
You don't know what the Presi-
dent will do under the bill. Do
you?" Senator Johnson shot back.
Certainly not" Mr.. Gerard re-
piled.
He said that if Germany defeated
Great Britain, Latin American coun-
tries would face attack immedi-
ately"
They couldn't resist without our
help, could they?" asked Senator
Barkley, Democrat, of Kentucky.
Mr.. Gerard said he thought they
could not and he expressed belief
the United States would join in the
conflict at once.
Many Germans, loyal to their
fatherland. inhabit South American
countries, Mr.. Gerard continued, and
Germany would use these to aid in
penetrating Latin America. After
the war Germany would hold South
American countries lin an iron
grip" he said.
Then" he remarked, I'VE would
