Any Laxity by Allies
Is Seen Affecting

Stands of Turkey and
Italy Considered of
Greatest Import
By PERTINAX.
PARIS, Oct. 6 (N.A.N.A.).—The
apeeches delivered in succession by
Prime Minister Chamberlain, For
eign Secretary Halifax and Premier
Daladier must be interpreted as ex
pressing the firm resolve of the
British and French governments to
continue the war until full victory
has been won.
Probably in America some com
mentators must have believed that
a contradiction could be detected
between phrases in those addresses
which said no promise or assurance
received from Chancellor Hitler
would be regarded as valid, and
other passages to the effect that the
Fuehrer's eventual proposals would
be carefully examined. As a matter
of fact, such a contradiction is
merely superficial. It exists in form,
but not in substance.
The truth is that the British and
French prime ministers were care
ful not to give Hitler the smallest
opportunity to tell the German peo
ple that his peace offer had been
curtly turned down and thus regain
their loyalty and devotion.
Danger in Wavering.
Were Hitler ready to resign his
functions, disappear from public
life and give Austria to Austria,
Czecho-Slovakia to Czecho-Slovakia
and Poland to Poland, European
peace, of course, would come into
its own. But, if German proposals
ever reach them, Messrs. Chamber
lain. Halifax and Daladier will not
be able to find there anything of
the kind.
in governmental circles in Paris
and London it is realized more and
more that, in the present circum
stances. to waver and hesitate in
the prosecution of the war might
have most untoward repercussions
on the behavior oi third powers.
For instance, on the behavior of
Turkey, whose foreign minister,
now in Moscow, tries to conciliate
the Ankara government's promises
to help the Balkan states uphold
their neutrality and France and
England protect the existing order
of things in the Eastern Mediter
ranean with the closest relations
maintained with Soviet Russia for
the last 15 years.
Italy's Fosition.
For another instance on the be
havior of Italy. Italy refused to
, join in war against Poland in the
second week of August, when For
eign Minister Ciano went to Salz
burg and Berchtesgaden, for the
following reasons:
First, because the existence of an
Independent Poland was a tenet of
her policy, and she could not con
done its destruction. Second, be
cause she had not been given the
respite of two or three years needed
to complete her military prepara
tions. which was stipulated when
the “steel pact" was concluded.
Third, because once more German
claims in Central and Eastern
Europe seemed to take precedence
, of her own claims elsewhere.
In brief. Italy thought at the time
that the bast method to follow to
promote her own program was to go
ahead for an indefinite period with
what was then called the “war of
nerves.''
In ITittTAai — t n__ _
No doubt, the Italian government
would like today to revert to that
method, and for the purpose would
readily favor the initiation of peace
negotiations. It may be added that
a premature peace, which could not
but conform to the Munich pattern
and even something worse, would set
,'« now premium on the "steel pact"
and open to its signatories prospects
more attractive than ever.
However, Italy probably will re
frain from attempting anything of
that sort as long as she is convinced
the French and British cabinets are
determined to push the struggle to
a successful issue and does not per
ceive which side is going to be the
Winner in the long run.
But it might be feared that she
would deem it to her interest to
6trive to bring about peace parleys
once she had become convinced
that there was. at any rate, a good
chance for success in the under
taking. Of course, having tried her
hand at such a job. she could not
be speedily disappointed. But her
disappointment might easily result
afterwards in a gradual change of
her present neutrality into an atti
tude of hostility.
Germans Equally Fixed.
Such are the reasons why Daladier
Is wise not to allow the illusion
to install itself in the mind of any
foreign diplomat he meets that the
weste
Work
On the German side an equal
nxity of purpose is surely to be
found, but compared with an op
portunity as to selection of means
that may defeat its own ends. I
am told that Dr. Burckhardt, the
lone sentry of the League of Nations
abandoned at Danzig, sent last
month to the secretary-general of
the League a report of a conver
" nation he had with Hitler on Au
gust 12. The gist of that document
Is that Hitler, who. as usual, did all
the talking, spent his time abusing
bolshevism.
Workers Dig Quickly,
Save Plumber in Cave-In
Quick work by fellow workmen
employed on the new Social Secur
ity Building project at Fourth and
C streets S.W. yesterday saved
Lona Rose, 28-year-old Alexandria
plumber, from serious injury when
he was trapped by a ditch cave-in.
Working in an excavation to be
used for plumbing lines, the man
was showered with dirt that cov
ered him to his neck when a shoring
collapsed under the pressure of
earth.
While his brother, Vincent J. Rose
of Arlington, superintendent for the
Hanson Plumbing Co., which is in
stalling plumbing on the Govern
ment project, directed his rescue,
workmen dug furiously with
fhoveis. Taken to Emergency Hos
pital, Mr. Rose was treated for mus
cle strain of the hip and abrasions
and bruises of the foot and ankle
His condition was said to be not
« serious.
Mr. Rose, according to police, was
soldering a pipe joint in the trench
when nearby workmen heard the
wooden shoring give way.

been rushing eastward to pick up the
liner. Location and time of expected
contact is being kept closely secret,
however, President Roosevelt deny
ing reporters this information at a
press conference at Hyde Park this
morning.
The President took occasion to
speak approvingly of the Atlantic
patrol service, pointing out that
presence of these ships off the New
England coast when the convoy as
signment was flashed to them will
save considerable time in their lo
cating of the Iroquois.
The ship, due in New York Wed
nesday, is carrying 534 passengers
and a crew of 212. All of the pas
sengers are American citizens.
Later officials here were notified
by the captain that the search had
been made and no explosives found.
Yesterday afternoon President
Roosevelt laid the German warning
before the cabinet and the decision
to make it public was reached at
that time. j
Even earlier, however, orders had
crackled out of Washington by radio
for Navy and Coast Guard patrol
ships to hurry toward the liner's
position, the Iroquois itself had been
warned and instructions given for a
complete search of explosives in the
ship, and full information given the
British and French admiralties.
The Maritime Commission, which
called the Iroquois from its nor
mal service between New York and
Florida for temporary service in re
turning Americans from the war
zone, also radioed the ship's master,
Edw^ard A. Chelton, to double his
lookouts and watchmen.
The liner, built at Newport News
in 1927, is registered at 6.209 tons,
with length of 394 feet and beam of
62 feet. She operates normally for
the Clyde-Mallory Line. With a
partial load of refugees, she left Liv
erpool on Monday and Cobh on
Tuesday.
incredulity and indignation greet
ed the announcement of threatened
tragedy after its release last night
by the White House.
Ambassador Joseph P. Kennedy,
in London, maintained constant
communications with his own and
the British governments, but in the
words of a subordinate, “all we can
do now is pray.”
In New York officials of the United
States Lines, co-operating in emer
gency operation of the coastwise
ship in Atlantic service, expressed
disbelief, one spokesman calling the
story “the silliest thing I have yet
heard.”
Berlin was curt but consistent.
"Ask Britain,” the admiralty re
plied to queries for more details.
“We have done our duty by giving
the warning. It is now up to Brit
ain to explain.”
Questions Unanswered.
Many questions were left un
answered in the brief announcement
released late yesterday by Presiden
tial Secretary Stephen Early. De
spite the plain implication of the
German warning for instance, that
the destruction was to be at British
or French hands, this accusation
was not made outright, or at least
the press was not so informed.
Neither was it explained how the
German admiralty could have been
in possession of the information.
There was a question also whether
Admiral Raeder's warning was de
livered verbally or by written com
munication. It was admitted by Mr.
Early today that the United States
naval attache, A. E. Schraeder, had
given a written receipt for the in
formation to the German admiralty,
at their request.
The White House “cannot imag
ine,” Mr. Early said, “that any
British, French or other ship would
do such a thing. We don't believe
many people in the United States
will believe the report is true or
that it could be.”
Mr. Early made careful distinc
tion as to the duty of the ships
racing to meet the Iroquois, namely,
that they are not to take the ship
under escort but merely to accom
pany her to New York. If under
escort technically, he explained,
she would be blacked out, follow a
zig-zag course, etc. Instead, he
added, she will proceed at normal
speed, showing all lights, flags and
identification marks.
The secretary said it was the opin
ion of the White House and the
Cabinet that their release of the
warning was not "for the purpose
of creating any alarms.”
Many on Athenia Lost.
The Athenia, Cunard-White Stai
liner carrying 1.400 passengers, was
sunk off the North Irish coast or
the night of September 3, the day
that Britain disclosed itself to be "at
war with Germany.” Many Ameri
cans and Canadians were aboard
some being among the casualties.
No warning of its doom was giver
the ship and the British government
has listed it officially as being th«
victim of a German submarine. Th«
German government has countered
this claim by asserting that tht
vessel was destroyed either by s
British mine or by a bomb placed ir
the hold by non-German hands.
The Iroquois, a much smaller ship
than the Athenia. was the vessel on
which 400 Washingtonians, mostly
Government employes, made a cruise
to Puerto Rico last year.
Her threatened destruction alsc
brought comment last night Iron
members of the Senate now so bit
terly debating revision of our neu
trality law.
Chairman Pittman of the Senate
Foreign Relations Committee re
marked tersely: “It occurs to me
that no one would have more knowl
edge of such facts than Admiral
Raeder—nor as to the method ol
destruction of a vessel.
Senator Connally, Democrat, ol
Texas, a member of the Foreign
Relations Committee, told reporters
he thoroughly approved President
Roosevelt's handling of the situ
ation.
“He could do nothing less than
order a convoy for a peaceful Ameri
can vessel with American citizens
aboard when a threat has been made
that it was going to be sunk," Mr.
Connally asserted.
Senator La Follette, Progressive,
of Wisconsin said he could not see
how the White House statement
could affect the Senate fight on
neutrality and thus declined to dis
cuss it.
Captain of Iroquois
Had Long War Experience
By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Oct. 6.—Long ex
perience in war-endangered waters
guided Capt. Edward A. Chelton,
master of the American liner Iro
quois, as the ship steamed toward
United States shores today under
threat of being sunk.
The 6,209-ton former coastwise
vessel, carrying refugees from Eu
ropean war zones, mostly Ameri
cans, was declared by German
Grand Admiral Erich Raeder to be
the target of an attack “under cir
cumstances similar to the loss of
the British liner Athenia.”
Capt. Chelton was chief officer
on the S. S. San Jacinto engaged
in ferrying American troops “over
there" during the World War.
Capt. Chelton, now commodore
captain of the Clyde-Mallory mer
chant fleet, was born in Fairmount,
Md„ on November 29, 1895. He
joined the company in 1916 and has
been a master since May, 1925, in
command of such ships as the
Shawnee, Chippewa, Algonquin and
Iroquois on their regular trips from
New York to Miami, Fla., and gulf
ports.
He is a lieutenant commander in
the Naval Reserve.

and French statesmen even before
it was made.
The British and French have
: clearly defined as one of their war
aims the recreation of a free Poland.
Semiofficial quarters said Hitler's
speech followed the lines the French
had expected.
Fascist quarters in Rome said
Italy would not take the initiative
in peace in line with her policy
' of not taking any military initiative
in Europe.
Italian Move Awaited.
Well-informed Italians expected
no move on Italy's part either to ac
cept or reject Hitler's proposal of a
conference until Britain and France
have made their positions clear.
Some expressed the view that the
offer could be accepted by the allies
only at the price of a drastic revision
of the policy already announced in
speeches by Prime Minister Cham
berlain and Premier Daladier.
Italy's position, it was said, re
mained that she would take no ini
I tiative in a movement for peace jusi
as she is taking no military initia
tive. If Britain and France agreed
to meet Hitler at a conference table
it is believed certain Italy would
then agree to participate.
Senator Nye, Republican, of North
Dakota, a leader of the opposition to
the administration neutrality bill,
told reporters that Hitler, “like
presidents, kings and premiers, talks
for his folks back home."
Sees No Neutrality Effect.
Senator Nye said Hitler's state
ment would not affect the neutrality
fight in the Senate and added “no
matter what they do (in Europe) we
must stay out of it.

adequate amends to the cruel con
quest of Poland.”
Senator Capper, Republican, of
Kansas: Senator Herring, Democrat]
of Iowa, and Representative Jar
man. Democrat, of Alabama lis
tened to the speech by radio and
then went on the air over a National
Broadcasting Co. network with
comments including these:
Declared Up to Allies.
Senator Capper: "He was trying
to frighten Britain and France into
peace on German terms. Also he
was bolstering up the spirit of the
German people, but it is up to Brit
ain and France and not to the
United States to give the answer.”
Senator Herring: "The speech of
Hitler impressed me as the plea of
a guilty soul which is finally begin
ning to recognize its own crimes.”
Representative Jarman: "He re
iterated his philosophy forcefully in
the statement that in the final
analysis it is not the method but
results which count.”
Chairman Bloom of the House
Foreign Affairs Committee described
the speech as "just another threat.’
Representative Bloom said he
“heard nothing in it that would in
dicate there was any chance ol
the other nations getting together
with Hitler to discuss peace.”

His announcement followed a radio
| speech last night in support of the
' administration bill by Henry L.
Stimson, former Republican Secre
I tary of State. Col. Stimson urged
repeal in order to aid Great Britain
and France, lest the war "in case
they are beaten » • » become our
own battle.”
Senator Barbour was the sixth of
the 23 Republican Senators to advo
cate repeal. The others are Senators
i Austin and Gibson of Vermont, Taft
of Ohio, Hale of Maine and Reed of
Kansas. Along with them, 51 .Dem
ocrats and one independent (Norris,
of Nebraska) are counted by the
administration as "sure” for the
j pending bill. Only 49 votes are
needed for passage.
! Contesting these figures. Senator
Nye said the administration had no
1 more than 39 or 40 definitely pledged
for repeal and that the embargo
group had 32,-leaving "more than 20
who have not yet made up their
| minds."
! Commenting on a statement by
Senator Pittman, Democrat, of Ne
vada that from 64 to 68 Senators
may vote for the bill, Senator Nye
: said:
ineyve got bi votes lor cash
and-carry,’ and if they come to me
they can have one more. They
haven't got 61 for embargo repeal.”
Senator Nye was one of four
speakers in yesterday's Senate de
bate on the neutrality question. Also
arguing against repeal was Senator
Overton, the only Southerner pub
licly opposing the administration
bill.
Senator Overton, usually an ad
ministration supporter, told the Sen
ate sales of armaments to warring
countries would be followed by Amer
ican credits and then: "The Amer
ican flag and the American soldier
will be following both to the battle
fields of Europe.”
Senator Tobey, Republican, of New
Hampshire asked that the bill be
divided, with prompt action on
"cash and carry” provisions and
later discussion on the embargo.
Senator Schwelienbach, Democrat,
of Washington closed the session by
describing the administration meas
ure as "the most complete and
orderly retreat from war that any
nation has ever executed.” He said
the ban against arms sales to bel
ligerents "contains definitely possible
dangers of our involvement” in the
European war.
Gallery Attendance Falls.
There was dwindling attendance in
the galleries and among Senators
themselves. Many seats for visitors
were empty, and at one time only
23 Senators were on the floor.
Continuing the debate on the
radio last night, Senator Brown,
Democrat, of Michigan, an embargo
repeal advocate, asserted that the
present law “gives Germany an un
fair advantage over England and
France.”
“Germany's army and navy keep
its trade lanes open,” he said.
“America's neutrality law keeps the
French and British trade lanes with
America closed. This the Amer
ican public does not approve.”
Senator Tobey s proposal to di
vide the bill was indorsed by five
peace organizations yesterday.
"The proposal for separate votes,”
the groups said in a joint state
ment, "blasts the effort of those who
have tried to make the public be
lieve that we could not keep the
arms embargo and have cash-and
carry on other goods.”
The statement was signed by the
National Council for Prevention of
War, the Women's International
League for Peace and Freedom,
the American Friends Service Com
mittee Peace Section, the Youth
Committee Against War, and the
Committee to Keep America Out
of War.

Hull Terms Sinking
Of Athenia Dastardly,
Says Probe Goes On
Uses Strongest Words
Since Tragedy When
Discussing 'Warning'
Secretary of 8tate Hull, using the
strongest language he has applied
to the catastrophe since its oc
currence on September 3, today de
scribed the sinking of the Athenia
as a dastardly act.
He said that while the State De
partment is still seeking the fullest
essential available facts on all phases
of the Athenia’s sinking, the Gov
ernment has not yet arrived at a de
cision on the circumstances.
The Secretary said his inquiry
into the Athenia, of course, included
the search for the identity of the
author of what he called the das
tardly act.
At the same time, Mr. Hull told
the press he has heard no further
information beyond that given out
a*' the White House last night on
the^upposed plot to sink the Amer
ican ship Iroquois. The German
admiralty informed this Govern
ment that the refugee-laden boat
was to be attacked “through a
repetition of circumstances which
marked the loss of the steamship
Athenia.”
No Official Comment.
So far as the State Department
is concerned, both the French and
British governments have been si
lent about the Iroquois warning.
The implication of the German
warning was that the British would
sink this boat, since the Nazis have
insisted that the British sank their
own ship when the Athenla went
down.
It was indicated that the warning
from Eric Raeder, the German
grand admiral, was given to the
American Naval Attache In Berlin
in the form of a note. This was
deduced at the State Department on
the strength of the admiral's de
mand for a receipt. The Secretary
commented that it was scarcely cus
tomary to demand a receipt for an
oral communication.
Secretary Hull said he was in the
dark about the German's source of
inlormation on the Iroquois plot.
The German admiralty said that the
information was passed on to them
from a neutral country.
Awaits Zone Reaction.
Mr. Hull said he was awaiting offi
cial replies from the belligerents in
the European war about their re
action to the establishment of the
Western Hemisphere “safety zone”
•to be free of all naval belligerent
operations.
When the Secretary was told that
there had been rumors that German
submarines have been operating
from the Dominican Republic, which
falls within the safety zone, he said
that this Government has every rea
son to believe the entire neutrality
of the Dominican Republic in this
matter. He said that the American
Government very much appreciates
the hospitality which the Dominican
Republic has given our naval vessels.

On Saar Front for
Any German Drive
Roundup of Communists
Proceeds, Meonwhile,
Behind the Lines
By tb* Auocltted Pm*.
PARIS, Oct. Prench troops dug
in on the muddy Saarland front to
day in preparation against any
large-scale German offensive, while
Prench police rounded up Com
munist leaders behind the lines.
Havas (Prench) news agency pub
lished a dispatch from Luxembourg
reporting that heavy German artil
lery bombarded Rusdorf, near Sierck,
which is in Prance at the south
eastern tip of Luxembourg.
Prench military circles reported
large German troop movements.
Older German soldiers were re
ported rapidly being replace^ by
younger campaigners from the Ger
man armies that crushed Poland.
Last night was calm, however.
The war ministry communique said
only patrols were active in the sec
tor southwest of Saarbruecken.
The strengthening of Prench van
guards was ascribed in political
quarters to belief that the Nazi
“peace offensive" had become a dead
issue even before Fuehrer Hitlers
address to the Reichstag today.
Police in Paris and in other cities
tore pictures of Lenin and Stalin
from walls in Communist centers
and searched for Arthur Ramette,
who, with Florimond Bonte, wrote
to Edouard Herriot, president of the
Chamber of Deputies, demanding a
parliamentary session to consider
peace.
Orders were issued for the arrest
of Ramette and Bonte, both Com
munist members of the Chamber of
Deputies, but Ramette had flea.
Ramette was president and Bonte
secretary general of the Workers
and Farmers’ party, organized when
the Communist party was banned.
Police said searches of both men's
homes disclosed evidence to justify
charges of “being in communication
with a foreign power.”
Of 43 Deputies who formed the
Workers and Peasants’ party, five
have responded to military sum
monses for questioning about the
letter to M. Herriot and about their
political connections.
Oustings Continue.
The ousting of Communist mayors
and municipal councilors continued,
with 67 nasioved in the Paris region
and a tofil of 317 soon to be re
placed elsewhere by appointees
named by district police prefects.
The Socialist party, headed by
former Premier Leon Blum, adopted
a resolutions condemning the Com
munists lor their indorsement of
the Russian “betrayal” and de
nouncing Soviet diplomacy.
Several deputies of the outlawed
Communist party disclosed they
had resigned after the signing of
the Soviet-German friendship pacts.
Raids on homes of others, suspected
of threatening the security of the
state, continued. If found guilty
they would be liable to fines of from
100 to 500 frances ($2.29 to $11.45)
and imprisonment of from one to
five years.
Rains Bog Operations.
Heavy rains bogged military op
erations as the French sought to
secure their left flank along the
Luxemburg border and kept an
alert watch at the other end of
their lines, near Switzerland.
Germans were reported concen
trated in the Black Forest, near
Switzerland in the South.
French sources said they had
taken precautions against the pos
sibility of an attempted German
invasion through neutral countries
in the North.
