for Defense Increase

WASHINGTON, Dec. 6-iJP-A
- pay-as-you-go p o I i cy for the
forthcoming vast armaments pro
gram was laid, down - today by
President Roosevelt, but he indi
cated a hope this might not ne
cessitate and increase in the fed
eral tax burden.
He said, in answer to a question
at a press conference, that he
favored the pay-as-you-go policy
even if it meant increased taxa
tion, but qutekly added that be
cause certain government expend
itures are self-liquidating, the to
tal tax revenue may not have to
be increased.
Tax Increases
Slay JJe Avoided
Stephen Early, presidential sec
retary, said afterward that tax in
creases for defense might be
avoided through "budgetary ad
justments." The president disclosed that
when he makes his recommenda
tions to congress to reinforce
land, sea and air defenses, he will
not link them with attempts to
stimulate business , and employ
ment through pump-priming. Na
tional defense i3 national defense
and nothing else, he commented
crisply.
The chief executive shed new
light on his plans shortly after his
return Trom a two week stay at
Warm Springs, Ga. Earlier he
had reviewed European develop
ments with three of his key am
bassadors and Sumner Welles,
acting secretary of state. At the
subsequent meeting with newsmen
he gave no explanation of the
subjects touched on. . ,
FDR Comments . '
At Length
Tanned and smiling, Mr. Roose
velt commented at length on the
defense program. After declar
ing t. ha t he did not know yet
whether n attempt should be
made to meet part of the cost by
' taxes, he added that it was a long
and difficult subject, which was
being studied.
In some countries, he noted,
expenditures were segregated into
three classes, as follows:
. 1. Governmental running ex
penses. 2. Expenditrres for absolutely
self-liquidating projects, such as
Boulder dam.
. 3. A type of expenditure which
so Increases national income as
to bring In a return of the money
over a period of years.
As a general thing, the presi
dent reiterated, national defense
is not self-liquidating.
The chief executive appeared to
take issue with some of his ad
visers in expressing doubt that
this country lags technically In
development of defenses. Louis
Johnson, assistant secretary of
war, and some other officials have
stated recently that this country's
preeminence in aviation is threatened.

Liner Paris for New York
PARIS, Dec 6 (AP) The Daladier government won
a clear-cut victory over socialist and communist opposition
today in the first parliamentary committee test of its firm
policy in dealing with strikes.
The important finance committee of the chamber of
deputies voted approval, 26 to 18, of the government's fight
O against the strikes, in which it
has employed military requisition,
discharge and arrest against the
strikers.
The vote, in which the radical
socialists fellow members of the
premier's party and the conser
vative groups stood solidly behind
the premier, was interpreted to
mean he would have a firm ma
jority when parliament convenes
in full session Thursday.
Reinforced by this political
support, the government proceed
ed relentlessly in Its drive to end
strikes which arose in protest
against Daladier'a decree laws in
creasing taxation and extending
the legal period of labor beyond
the 4 0-hour week.
Navy crews went aboard the
liner Paris at Le Havre, replacing
striking sailors. The navy men
sailed the vessel out of the har

sengers tomorrow at Cherbourg.
Le Havre is the normal sailing
port for the Paris.
Plans were made to man other
strike-bound vessels., similarly in
the event this first sailing from
the disrupted port failed to break
the shipping strike.

Hitler Is Burglar
To Mann Children
PORTLAND, Dec. 6-(;P)-Erika
and Dr. Klaus Mann, children of
Thomas Mann, the distinguished
author, could find little difference
today between Adolf Hitler and a
burglar.
"You propose a 'treaty to a
burglar that if he will go away
you'll never call the police," said
Miss Mann in an Interview, "but
he returns and steals everything
he can carry away that's Hitler."
"Treaties with a burglar like
Hitler amount to nothing," Dr.
Mann remarked. "The moment
things become serious everyone
tries to do what he wants to do
regardless of treaties."
They predicted Hitler would
attempt to take land from Russia,
try to destroy, France and keep
many' Jews in Germany as host
ages. "
Their father, who formerly
lived at Munich, was forced to
quit Germany.

Plan of Sending Jews

BOMBAY, Dec. 6-(iiP)-Mohan-das
K. Gandhi, the Indian nation
alist leader, said today that Ger
man Jews should insist on staying
in Germany and criticized the
plan of making Palestine a na
tional home for Jews.
He wrote in his weekly news
paper that "if ever there could
be a justifiable war in the name
of humanity, a war against Ger
many to prevent the wanton per
secution of a whole race would
be completely justified "
However, he added:
"If I were a Jew and were born
in Germany and earned my live
lihood there, I would claim Ger
many as my home, even as the
taUest gentile may, and challenge
him to shoot me or cast me Into
a dungeon. I would refuse to be
expelled or to submit to discrimi
nating treatment ...
"Palestine belongs to the Arabs
in the same sense that England
belongs to the English and it is
wrong and inhuman to impose
Jews on the Arabs." "

Power from Bonneville dam

lic relations assistant to J. p.
Ross, dam administrator, predict
ed here last night.
Project engineers are now on
location in Marion county seek
ing possible routes for the dou
ble high tension line the Bonne
ville administration has planned
to serve the valley as far south as
Eugene. The line, to consist' of
two 110,000-volt circuits, proba

where the terrain does not per
mit, Fitts said.
Contracts For Line
To Be Let Soon
Coincident with Fitts an

from Mr. Ross in Seattle last
night that the Vancouver-Eugene
transmission line would be in
cluded among 26 contracts for
work totaling $7,000,000 to be let
within the next 60 days.
Here to address a public meet
ing called by the Hollywood Com

ence at the Quelle that "to get
Bonneville power you have got to
own a distribution system." Pow
er will be sold at wholesale only
from the transmission lines. The
rate as previously disclosed, he
pointed out, will be $17.50 per
kilowatt year.
Urges Support

if you offer them a fair price,"
Fitts urged his listeners to sup
port bills to be Introduced in the
coming legislature to simplify the
procedure for creating public
utility districts and to enable
them to issue revenue securities
in place of general obligation
bonds.
Administrator Ross favors pub
lic districts' buying existing pri

at a reasonable, fair price and
such a price is only "a matter of
horse trading," Fitts said. He
maintained outright purchase of
present facilities was preferable
fto either condemnation or dupli

Fitts advised groups contem

Ross staff In Portland "before

Weather Man Testifies Hop
Of Crash Plane Was Unwise
. OAKLAND, Calif., Dec. 6-(P-A
federal hearing into the forced
ocean landing of a United Air
Lines plane, resulting in death for
five persons, received testimony
today from a weather man that it
was thought unwise for the plane
to proceed on Its night flight from
Medford, Ore. .
W. E. May, airlines meteorolo
gist at Oakland airport, said he
saw a message from Thomas P.
Van Sceiver, company dispatcher
at the airport, advising, the Med
ford agent that the flight should
be held up there.
The plane alighted on the ocean
off Pt. Reyes, 3 5 miles northwest
of; San Francisco before dawn
Not. 29, after its fuel supply was
exhausted. Capt. Charles Stead,
pilot, and Isadore Edelstein, a pas
senger, were the only survivors
among four passengers and a crew
of three.
In a deposition submitted today
to Fred Glass, chief examiner con
ducting the hearing for the air
safety board of the civil aeronau
tics authority, ;Verne D. Steeves,
junior meteorologist at the US
weather office at Oakland airport,
said both he and Van Sceiver
thought the plane should halt at
Medford. '' t " - ' .
. However, Steves said that he
later told Van Sceiver , that "the
wind was not as strong at Sacra
mento as at Oakland."
Testimony showed, that Van
Sceiver, after checking the weath
er further, cleared the plane from
Medford to Sacramento Instead of
to Oakland where the wind, was
strong. 1 .. '
, Max C. Henne, UAL station
manager at Medford, testified
that the plane's orgiinal flight
schedule was from - Seattle via
Portland, Medford and Sacramen
to to Oakland, but at Medford,
where the plane waited nearly an
hour while the weather was
checked, the ship was' cleared for
Sacramento.

Colony Claims
Not Immediate
In Nazi Plans

Rhine Border
Ribbentrop Understood
to Have Assured Tbat
Colonies Safe "
PARIS, Dec. 6.-(;P)-Nazi Ger
many gave France a signed pact
of friendship today and sealed it
with a promise of at least a tem
porary respite from territorial
claims.
The promise embraced France's
colonial possessions as well as her
frontier on the'-Rhine.
Foreign Ministers Joachim von
Ribbentrop of Germany and
Georges Bonnet of France put
their signatures to a three-point
accord formally burying ancient
enmities, which pledged good
neighbor relations, recognise
the existing Rhine frontier, and
called for consultation on all
problems " except those dealing
with "particular relations with
third powers."
Colony Demands
Not Pressing
In conversations following the
ceremony, it was learned from -quarters
close to the foreign min
istry, Ribbentrop also gave Bon
net assurances Germany would
not Immediately press any claim
for return of her colonies lost t
France under mandates after the
world war.
The colonial question was the
most Important among many dis
cussed by the diplomats In a gen
eral conversation.
The German foreign minister
said to have maintained Ger
many's "theoretical claims" for
return of her colonies, but to hav
pointed out that the reich ha
made no formal demands and did
not intend to do so for the time
being.
A similar attitude was under
stood to have been taken towar4
the recent Italian clamor for rec
ognition of her "Interests and as
pirations" in French Tunisia and
Corsica.
Spanish War
Is Reviewed
The foreign ministers also re
viewed the problem of the Span
ish civil war in their talks, and
the possibilities of developing mu
tual trade, but no definite deci
sions were reached.
Germany's immediate goal wa
understood to be Improvement cf
her standing with France at
time when her relations with
Great Britain and the United
States have grown strained, as
result of recent anti-Jewish meas
ures. ' i
The " third powers" whose rela
tions with Germany and France
were the basis of the paot reser
vation on consultation were not
specified officially. It was gener

Germany the phrase meant Italy
