Remington Disputes
Wife's Testimony Of
Communism Promise
BY the Asseeioted Press

NEW YORK, Jan. 24.-Contra-
dieting testimony by his former
wife, William w. Remington said
yesterday that he wooed her by
promising to be true to the "aver-
age man." but not communism.
Remington, 33, once a $4,000
a-year Commerce Department
economist. was on the witness
stand for the second day at his
Federal perjury trial.
He is expected to testify again
today on charges that. he lied in
telling a Federal grand jury he
never was Communist Party
member.
His statements yesterday con-
tested earlier testimony by his
divorced wife, Ann Moos Reming-
ton, who appeared for the Gov
ernment. She testified that Rem
ington told her he was a Com
munist and that she married him
on condition that he remain a
Communist.
Denies Giving Promise.
But the defendant said the only
promise he had given her was that
he never would become so ambi-
tious for himself as to "give up
my concern about the average
man." He also denied telling her
he was a Communist.
The Remingtons were married
in 1899 while he still was STU
dent at Dartmouth College. They
were divorced about 18, months
ago.
Mrs. Remington said the con-
versation took place in parked
car at Dartmouth, but the de-
fendant said the locale was a
downtown New York restaurant.
I'VE talked about whether we
should marry or not" he testified.
"She had not made up her mind.
She was worried about what she
thought was my ambition, and
asked me if I would promise her
I would not become dominated by
a desire to be a successful busi-
nessman. She was quite con-

SCHOLARSHIPS
DIR. John Perkins, President
u. of d., Addresses Will
mingtOn Rotary Club
MORE ADULT COURSES

Delaware, ranking 47th among
an states in the percentage of its
young people who go to college,
should encourage more of its high
school graduates to continue their
education, President John A. Per-
aIns of the University of Delaware
told the Wilmington Rotary Club
recently.
Speaking at the weekly luncheon
meeting in the Hotel DUPONT, Dr.
Perkins added that at concerns
me not little that nearly so per
cent of the young people who do
go to any college leave Delaware
TO seek their higher education else
where"
This is bad for Delaware be-
cause it drains off leadership that
may never return" he declared.
@'Young people are our best crop,
and it is dangerous to export too
many of them"
The University of Delaware is
seeking to make college feasible
for as many of the states young
people as is possible, he said, by
keeping costs down for the stu
dents in the face of higher prices
everywhere.
In addition, DIR. Perkins urged,
there should be "a state program
of scholarships so that any able
youngster could go to his state
university regardless of the finan-
cial circumstances of his family"
''Can we afford to waste our
most valuable natural resources? 2"
ne asked.
After declaring that "the educa-
Gional needs of the state must be
pressed upon us, and we must re-
spond to then," DR.. Perkins sug-
gested the possibility of more
adult education, of both the tech
nical and cultural variety"
"Also," he said, courses are
needed to meet the need of young
people who go to work directly out
of high school. The great universi-
ties of England point the way to us
tand ~ o4Iox A NJ ov.;oo,, ,,Y,ixarc;+;oe
in these fields"
TO assure that Delaware's uni
wersity continues to meet the re-
sponsibAities of a state university
in these crucial times" the presi-
dent said, requires "the interest
and guidance of the leading citiz-
ems of Delaware" and IAN operat-
ing appropriation to offset the f.
nancial impact of imitation and
wartime training in universities.
HIe mentioned a loss of revenue
from the federal government with
the ending of CT training, a cut
back in income from student fees
as many men students leave for
the armed services, higher costs to
the university for all material sup
plies, and the need for salary in
creases to the staff, which, he said,
now has IL per cent less purchas-
ing power than it did 10 years ago.
Discussing the building needs of
the university, President Perkins
said that five additional dormitories
are required to house students now
accommodated in emergency quar-
tiers or who must commute.
4Part of the answer why Della
ware exports our young people for
college educations elsewhere is
found in the dormitory situation at
the university" he said. Hundreds
of our students cannot live suitably
on the campus at present, and
many more Delawareans are
&nown to go elsewhere for their ed
neation because they cannot find
quarters here"
The University will seek $780,
coo for dormitories from the cur
rent General Assembly, and an
enabling act to issue bonds for an
equal amount for that purpose.

Senate Crime Probers
Seek Sitter Penalties
For Dope PeddIers

The Senate Crime Investigating
Committee is expecting to seek
laws to insure more severe penal
ties against dope peddlers, it was
learned today.
The committee, according to in
formed sources. is considering
changes in the Federal narcotics
statutes aimed particularly at
those who sell dope to minors.
The proposals under considera-
ton would ask for compulsory stiff
sentences for second offenders and
two types of sentences generally
one for peddling to minors and
the other for keeping adult dope
addicts supplied.
The committee, in it's recent
interim report, mentioned five
recommendations it has under
consideration. Coping with the
narcotics problem was not among
them, except in the sense that
the committee spoke of expand
ing Federal law enforcement
agencies. The Treasury's Bureau
of Narcotics spearheads the at
tack on dope peddling.
Not mentioned in the interim
report but also repeatedly under
consideration is Tightening of the
immigration laws to deport or
otherwise punish citizens in
volved in criminal activity.
Admittedly one of the toughest
problems the committee is facing
in the way of proposing legisla-
ton is a method of breaking up
the race-wire monopoly which
the committee contends is secretly
controlled by the Capone mob.
The committee, in its interim
report, said it is essential that
laws or rules be devised to cure
the evils Of the race-wire service

on the Constitutional rights of
legal operators.
