Date Uncertain, but Presi
dent Hopes to Make Voy
age This Year.
RV .1. RUSSELL YOUNG,
Staff Correspondent ot The Star.
WARM SPRINGS. Ga„ March 22.—
President Roosevelt today is enjoying
the warmth of a Springlike sun and
as his brief vacation draws to a close
he has in mind another vacation later
in the year, which will take him
across the Pacific to the Philippine
Islands.
No details have been worked out,
but during his talk Saturday night
with former Gov. Paul V. McNutt of
Indiana, who will sail shortly to
assume his new post as high com
misisoner to the Philippines, the Pres
ident strongly intimated he intends
to make a voyage to the Philippines
before this time next year. Only
pressing business will prevent him.
In the event the President goes
he will make the long voyage pri
marily for the purpose of "good will,”
but will also make it an inspection
tour to study the harbor of Manila
and its role as a naval base. He will
study also what is being done in air
defense, as well as the economic
situation and the domestic problem
in the Philippines.
Trip Depends on Congress.
The fact the President would like
to take such a trip is not new. Several
times in the last year he has ex
pressed himself to newspaper men.
However, it was from former Gov.
McNutt at Warm Springs yesterday
that it was learned definitely the
President is actually considering such
a tour. It is understood he hopes to
start early next Fall, but he realizes
that the date must be uncertain, be
cause there is no certainty when Con
gress will adjourn.
Some advices the President has re
ceived lately are to the effect that
Congress may run through November.
If this should be the case, it is doubt
ful the President would want to go
that late in the year. He had been
hoping Congres would be away from
Washington early in September, in
which case he could work in this long
voyage. Therefore, knowing his de
sires, he is hoping Congress will be
able to close and get out by Septem
ber.
The climate here has improved so
much during the last few days that
Mr. Roosevelt today is inclined to pro
long his vacation until the latter part
of this week. The weather has mod
erated considerably, and once again
the chilling rain and sullen skies of
last week have given way to warm
sunshine.
Enjoys Sunshine.
Yesterday he spent most of the
time sitting on the porch of his little
frame house on the slopes of Pine
Mountain, basking in the gentle
warmth of the Spring sun, or driving
about the country in his open car.
It is his intention to do the same
thing today, which means that he
will devote a few hours to business.
President Roosevelt is particularly
enthusiastic over the things which
are blooming in the grounds sur
rounding his cottage. To visitors he
first points with pride to the border
along the walkway from the road to
the front door where jonquils are in
full bloom. He then points to the
several bushes of jasmine and the
several bushes of bridal wreath. Then
he will wave toward the blossom
ing peach and pear trees in the rear
grounds, and before you are able to
express any comment he says. "Wait
until I take you to the farm and show
you how things are blooming out
there."
Mr. Roosevelt has missed very few'
days without going to his farm on
the slopes of the mountain, and his
plans for today include another visit
there.
McNutt left yesterday for Wash
ington and will sail from San Fran
cisco April 3 for his post, taking with
him two Indiana men. Leo M. Gard
ner of Indianapolis, as legal adviser,
and Wayne Coy of Delphi, as admin
istrative assistant. Their appoint
ments w^re signed yesterday.
ANTI-COMMUNIST
20 Nationalities Represent
ed in Group to Fight Spread
of Doctrines.
Ey the Associated Press.
BERLIN, March 22.—An anti-Com
munist world congress to be held in
the near future was announced yes
terday by Nils von Bahr, Swedish
Army Reserve officer, who is secretary
of a group representing 20 nationali
ties.
Forty-four delegates of the group,
meeting secretly at Feldafing, Bavaria,
last Autumn, decided to oppose the
Communist International with a mili
tant international organization.
The Anti-communist Congress is
an outgrowth of that meeting. A
definite date for its meeting has not
been selected.
"The Feldafing conference deemed
it essential that a world congress be
called so that the spiritual fight
against the world's red enemy may
be given publicly a new strong im
pulse,” Von Bahr announced.
"For this purpose an international
bureau was created. The bureau
meets from time to time in various
countries.”
It has international and inde
pendent character, its funds being
subscribed by adhering bodies,” he
said.
"As preparatory work for the con
gress the public is to be informed
by books, pamphlets, lectures, ex
hibits and films of the Communist
danger in all its phases, authentic
proof is to be adduced that com
munism means the greatest danger
to culture, peace, national prosperity
and freedom of all peoples."
The bureau has no intention of
interfering either directly or indi
rectly in the domestic affairs of the
various nations, the Swedish member
asserted.
“The fight against communism
must be conducted individually and
differently in different countries.
That, however, does not prevent close
co-operation and mutual assistance
in the task of enlightening the peo
ples on communism
“The congress," Von Bahr said, "is
to point the way toward an effective
combat against communism."
