DE GAULLE ASKS VOICEIN PEACI PARIS, Sept. 12.—(A1)—As Presi dent Roosevelt and Prime Ministe Churchill met in Quebec and pr« sumably considered Europe's im mediate future, Gen. Charles di Gaulle told Paris and the work tonight that France wanted ful participation in discussion a n < adoption of plans for conquerec Germany and liberated Europe. In an address to an assembly o: the National Council of Resistanct De Gaulle declared: “We believe it is in the better interests of all mankind that the arrangements which tomorrow will govern the fate of conquered Ger many should not be discussed and adopted without France, because there is no power more interested than France in what concerns the neighbor with which she has had for more than 2,000 years to occupy herself more than with any other. “If there were any persons any where who doubted what this op pressed hation wanted or its ca pacity to handle itself, I suppose they are now definitely enlight ened,” the general told cheering re sistance leaders and followers who crowded the big auditorium of Chaillot palace for his first major address since the liberation. De Gaulle reiterated the inten tion of the provisional government a§ soon as war prisoners and de portees can be returned home to hold an election by universal suf frage of ‘‘all men and women of our country.” French women have never had the right to vote. De Gaulle declared that in future battles for Germany’s defeat and in the occupation itself "We intend to participate in as large a measure as possible.” He reported the Germans stillj had a hold in 15 of France’s 84; departments, and he said the bet ter part of France's communica tions were still “paralyzed” from the ravages of war. Recent rigors, he said, had high lighted her failings of the past— "Negligence, mediocrity and injus tice which we have practiced or tol erated”—sufficiently to have made France resolve to “take anew road.” To sum u£ tne principles wnica France intends to adopt as a basis for national activity we shall say that while assuring the maximum possible liberty to all and favoring in every way a spirit of enter p:ise, France wants things to be conducted so that special interests will always be forced to give way to common interests; so that the great sources of common wealth will be exploited and directed not for the profit of the few but for the advantage of all; so that the specially privileged groups which have weighed so heavily on the conditions of men and even on na tional policy shall be abolished once and for all; and that finally each of France’s sons and each of its daughters shall be able to live, - work and bring up their children in security and dignity.” t The living conditions of French 1 workers must improve, De Gaulle said, along with growing produc tion. “Certainly it is within the state’s province,” he said, to requisition "certain great public services or , certain enterprises” while the na tion settles the way in which they v shall be used. 1 “Certainly the state has the duty b of turning back into the national purse the guilty riches of those v who worked for the enemy.” t De Gaulle, trim in a two - star V general’s uniform without decora- o tions, was given a long ovation by C the 4,000 people crowding the audi- n torium. t: __ \T n DAKOTA SENATORS ; CLASH ON FLOOR; ti WASHINGTON, Sept. 12 — m~ a North Dakota’s two Republican ^ senators clashed on the Senate floor C today after one — Gerald Nyt — s *aid an offer of $110,000 was made a “by one very close to the White d House’’ to induce a world war ve- J teran to become a candidate i against Nye in the recent primary I In his state. 8 Nye said the veteran, whom he £ named as Fay C.

BUSINESS CHIEFS HEAR VICK HEAD DURHAM. Sept. 12 “The war has increased the knowledge of top ranking executives through out this country of the absolute necessity for sound industrial re lations policies and programs and for capable personnel administra tors,” Lawrence A. Appley, vice president of the Vick Chemical company, Greensboro, declared to night at a dinner concluding the second day of the fourth South eastern Personnel conference, held at Duke university. “In analyzing the history of war production,” Appley said, “it can be noted that there is a direct re lationship between the success of the company in doing its job and the kind of a personnel program that it has. It has been my privi lege to study .'the development of many war projects and plants. Without exception I have seen im proved industrial relations prac tices bring about improved produc tion schedules. . . . j.ne aay is not iar oil wnen the field of industrial relations will be considered as a source for the selection of presidents of large corporations. That indicates the progress that has been made in human relations in business.” Appley said that it is not enough that an organization have an ac ceptable product to sell or a re quired service to render. The pro duct to be sold or the service to be rendered must be present by a well selected, a continually well evaluated, and a well directed group of individuals which are molded into an efficient orga nization with a high degree of morale. ‘The whole field of human re lations will go through a continu | ing change for the better. The wel fare of individuals will vary radi cally with conditions but the methods of dealing with those con ditions will improve. There is one thing certain and that is that the future of any organization, the fu ture of the country, and the future of the world can be considered only in terms of human values and re lations,” the speaker concluded. The conference began Mon day evening and will continue through noon tomorrow. Some 100 personnel and industri al relations directors and other in terested persons are attending the conference. -V : Bus transportation in June 1941 increased 3.5 per cent over J me ■ 1943, with the transit industtj carrying 1,905,201,000 passengers.

(International) Heavy Drinker, Souse A re Two Other People CLEVELAND, Sept. 12—(.¥>— Dr. Abraham Myerson, inter nationally known Boston psy chiatrist, came out today with a distinction between the heavy drinker and the chronic souse —and at the same time he pegged pathological drunks in four classes for ready recog nition. “Heavy drinking,” he declar ed in an address prepared for delivery before the American Association for the Advance ment of Science “may be mere ly a foolish and bad habit. “It becomes alcoholism when craving is established, when the hangover demands alcohol for relief, when the drinking be comes temporarily remedial of the pains of deprivation, when it is not pleasure, so ciality, or celebration which is sought but merely relief from the distress of non-drinking.” Asserting that alcoholism needs to be attacked as a “drug addiction, requiring so cial education on a public health scale and demanding reform in social legislation of enforceable and reasonable type,” Myerson said patholo gical drinkers could be divided into these four categories: 1. “The individual with the social anxiety neurosis (who) feels ill at ease with his fel low-men or women, is tongue tied, suffers bodily disturb ances to the point of dis tress and pain in social rela tionships and finds social ease and social pleasure only when he has a few drinks under his belt. 2. "The spree drinker, whose alcoholism rests upon some disastrous dynamic cycle, by which one drink sets agoing an inevitable debauch which ends only when the individual is fortunately brought to a hos pital or jail. 3. “The individual who is suffering from some other mental disease in which the drinking is symptomatic of the personality disorder and disintegration of that mental disease.” 4. “Unorganized extra verts who become hobo’s and bums who drift into alcoholism as the least active of the pleasure of life and who finally become completely addicts, living only to drink.” Ickes Assails Dewey I For ‘Reckless’ Talk! _._ GRAND RAPIDS, Mich., Sept. 12 _G>)—Interior Secretary Ickes to night assailed as “reckless and baseless” a charge by Thomas E. Dewey that the Roosevelt adminis tration did not intend to demobilize armed forces as quickly as possible. Ickes in a prepared speech, the advance text of which was released in Washington, said he found it disturbing that the Republican Presidential candidate, “In h i s reckless quest for votes has stooped to pluck the heartstrings of every American mother, wife, sweetheart and did of avery soldier and sailor throughout the world with a charge that is as false as any ever promulgated by Goebbels. Ickes told the United Automobile Workers (CIO) Ninth annual con vention that Dewey should be in formed that “Presidents are not made in the United States by de ceitful double - talk indulged in recklessly in the hope of receiving the voters.” He said Dewey in making the demobilization statement, quot ed Major General Lewis B. Her shey, head of selective service, and added: “Whatever General Hershey, who is a Republican, may have said, he was not speaking for the ad ministration.” Ickes labeled his address “pub lic trembler No. 1” and said Dew ey apparently is determined to es tablish himself” as an individual known by that title. On August 17, Ickes related. Dewey declared he was "deeply disturbed” over preliminary peace discussions. The Interior Secretary continued: “It would be a tragedy, he in toned. if conferences among the British, Russians, Chinese, and ourselves should become ‘A mili tary alliance to dominate the world.” About this time Mr. Will kie felt called upon to remonstrate with the candidate of his party for his unjustified jitters willing to do his part, Secretary Hull soothingly invited Dewey to a conference. “Courtesy dictated that he should: atwcpi., uui ne was so ousy cam paigning that he designated John' Foster Dulles, learned in. Cartels, to go to Washington to find out what the sco* was. . . .Mr. Dulles is a man of’such wide judgment and perspicacity on world affairs that, as recently as March, 1939, he made a speech before the New York economic club offering it as lis calm and considered judgment that ‘only hysteria entertaines the idea that Germany, Italy or Japan contemplate war upon us.’ It is little wonder that Dewey and Dul les have an affinity for eacll oth er.” When “prophet Dulles” reported oack to Dewey, Ickes stated, the tatter “ceased trembling momen tarily and gave his blessing to the conference for which he said he had high hopes’ of success.” “These hopes have sustained him :o date, but no one can predict how '■ ong he can keep his serenity of mind,” the secretary added. Ickes said Dewey in 1941 bitterly! criticized the lend - lease bill and i month later had to reverse him ;elf; in 1940 denounced the ad ninistration’s recognition of Soviet itussia and reversed himself when he Soviet armies were well on the ■oad to Berlin; in the same year iaid this country could not possibly iroduce 50,000 airplanes a year “As a leader, he has had to re verse himself c»r almost every thing,” Ickes sgid. “He has been dizzy trying to keep up with the parade as evidenced by public opin ion polls. He has constantly been inarching toward the rear to a ‘po sition prepared in advance.’ ” Ickes also hit at critics of the campaign being waged by the CIO political action committee in sup port of President Roosevelt. He said Dewey in 1937 when running for District Attorney of New York ‘‘gratefully accepted” a $5,000 con tribution from the amalgamated clothing workers of the CIO. ‘‘This was the largest contribu tion he received,” Ickes said, ‘‘and he liked it so well that he passed his plate back for a second help ing. And who was head of the amal gamated clothing workers in 1937? Why, none other than Sidney Hill man, who the Republicans are now trying to pretend is an ogre so as to frighten children.” -V Moses Barker Waives Hearing In OP A Case Moses Barker, alias Joe Merri man, 40, of Holly Ridge, who was arraigned before U, S.
