 But his voice mellowed as he reached the peroration, not hinted at in the copies of his speech dis- tribute din advance. It was his fare well and a railing cry to youth. The delegates cheered, loud and long.
 we who have lived long," he said, turn our eyes upon your genera. ton lovingly and with hope, and with prayer, and with confidence for the future of our country we of the older generation know that you will carry forward,
 "Youth of the Republican party, I, representing the generation ot your fathers. greet you and send you forth"
 The New Deal, following ''in milder form the tactics of European revolutions" he said, has certain methods in common" with those revolutions.
 "They seek" he said, ito destroy every safeguard of personal liberty and justice. Their method was to create centralized government and a simple political party. Purge was their political weapon. Their eco- homie system is regimentation through coercion by Bureaucracy. Their fait his the negation Of Christianity. Their strategy is to make public opinion by falsehood and to destroy opposition by assas- sination of character through smearing."
 MT. Hoover quoted President Roosevelt as having said in a speech on January 3, 1886, that he had built up new instruments of public power" which could 'provide shackles for the liberties of people ip any other hands"
 "Freedom is not promoted by shackles in anybody's hands" he said. We now know the peace- time shackle they provided for the liberties of the people.
 "They put shackles on our farm- CTS. They put them on honest labor unions, on freedom of workmen. on honest business enterprise, They have done more. These bureaucrats with these instruments of power famed bitter hatreds between labor unions which divided the ranks of labor. And they famed hate be. tween employer and workmen. They built class conflict instead of na- tional unity"
 Asserting that only a change in administration would solve "these gigantic problems, MT. Hoover said that If the Republican party comes to power 1t will not be to nquidate either the economic welfare or the independence of the United States"
 Peace in the future, he said, must me based upon cooperation between independent, sovereign na- tions," but If the general assembly of a world organization to preserve the peace is mot to be mere de- batting society. 1t should be split into three divisions noe for Europe, one for Asia, and one for the vest ern hemisphere.
 Each region should be given the primary responsibility for peace. In It's area before the central council is called upon" he said. Especially should that responsibility be inn posed on Europe, where the dangers of the world vars come from"

(COuClnue0 from Puge lJ
 The German DNB Agency said Henriot was murdered by French terrorists at British orders"
 Henriot arrived in Paris with Laval only yesterday. French quar- ters in London speculated whether Laval may have been staying with Renriot in the latter's elaborately furnished blacked-out apartment in the propaganda ministry during the night and whether an attempt also may have been made on his life.
 Civil War Act
 Laval announced the assassination of Renriot to the French people in @ broadcast over the Paris radio at 1920 p. m. (7:20 Q. m. EWT) He condemned the murder as an tact of civil war" committed by men who wished to plunge all France into insurrection.
 "IIe fell this morning, hero and e martyr" Laval said. He was murdered by revolvers before the eyes of his wife at the propaganda ministry.
 "The murderers succeeded in reaching him by passing as guards and defenders. Herein you recognize the dishonorable war which is civil war.
 "He was loved and feared. Be- cause they couldn't shut his mouth, they shut his eyes. They wish to plunge France into civil war;"
 Lava lsaid that Henriot, in his last radio speech last night, spoke as though he had a presentment of death, for he said.
 Insult me and shall not replyl"
 "He knew the dangers wherein he stood and accepted all risks to carry out his duty" Laval said.
 DNB said the IS disguised mem- bers of the Militia arrived at the propaganda ministry in automobiles shortly before 6 Q. m. (Paris Time).
 While the remainder covered two guards with their guns and stood watch outside. three men who must have known the plan of the build ing went to the second floor and knocked on Henriots bedroom, DNB said.

 Henriot, in pajamas, answered the knock and one of the attackers fired immediately, hitting him in the heart, DINE added.

German defense forces
on the Adriatic side of
the battle line in Italy
withdrew 10 miles today
behind a series of DEM

pursued by Allied troops
of the Eighth Army.
The withdrawal was car
ried out in the mountainous
sector south of the Monte
Maiella range, near the Aven-
tino River about 25 miles
inland from the Adriatic
coast.
The Nazis dropped back in the
area of Palena, which lies about
80 miles south of the east coast
port Of Pescara, and Letto Palena
TO the north.
The withdrawal was the first
made in this area of the Adriatic
battle front since last December

had only thinly defended the sec
tor.
Headquarters disclosed that the
first signs of enemy withdrawal
were observed Saturday night and
that the retirement has continued
ever since.
On the central sector of the
main Fifth Army front there was
considerable German mortar ac-
tivity near San Biagio. Allied
artillery hit a Nazi ammunition
dump near Belmonte, causing fires.
