Americans Described
As Intellectual Babies
By Kathleen Norris
Novelist Berotes Those
Who Are Frightened by
ToIk of Invasion

Americans have been intellectual
babies to let themselves be fright
ened by talk of Hitler invading the
United States, novelist Kathleen
Norris told members of the Womens
international League for Peace and
Freedom last night.
Mrs. Norris, a member of the
leagues Advisory Council, urged
members not to abandon their
campaign for non-interventionism.
Speaking during the organizations
banquet at the Hotel Washington,
she raped the administration for
creating anxiety among people
who have never been afraid in all
their history"
The proper answer to give people
who say to you that Hitler will be
over here just as soon as England
is licked is that we will be ready"
she declared.
She said Hitler is mo more un-
stoppable than Napoleon" adding
that Hitler, like all the men in
histroy charged with a desire to
dominate the world, would pass
away.
The most amazing part of it all"
she continued, lis that the map Of
Europe always shows England,
France. Italy or Germany in es-
sentially the same place.

Arena January 49, reads COM

nouncement by Johnny Ray, Conn's
manager. that Billy had signed to
box Frankie Hamer, Babe Ritchie
and Jay D. Turner as warmup for

The local commission, however,
"feels that Ritchie is not at this
time the proper opponent for Conn
- and that it should make its
stand clear to both press. public and
promoters that permit for such
contest might not be granted"
Maybe Danny Hassett would be a
