Invincible
Bloc Is
"Determined to
by Their United Power"
By LOUIS P.
BERLIN, May 22 (AP)
proclaimed themselves makers of Europe's unwritten history
I either by diplomacy or by the sword.
Presumably
counting in all
n the words of
bentrop, they had forged a mighty invincible bloc of 300,-
000,000 people "ready to offer the hand of friendship to any
one, but determined to smash any enemy by their united
power." " -J A . " : . . r . t
V Japan -was the first power toO-
register "present" for the lineup.
Its government sent a message
thoroughly approring of the mili
tary, political, economic and .dip
lomatic alliance.
With Adolf Hitler as an unsmll
ng witness sitting between them
n the gilded ambassadors hall of
he new chancellery, Von Rlbben
rop and the Italian foreign mini
ter. Count Galeaszo Ciano, at
.1:0 a, m., affixed their names
o the accord consisting of a pre
amble and seven short articles.
Impressive Gathering
Witnesses Signing
Behind them was an Impressive
gathering of generals, admirals
and diplomats in other words,
men who will be charged primarily
with giving effect to the provi
sions of the pact.
. The axis diplomats, by the terms
of the seven articles, will be
called upon first when danger
seems to be lurking in the offing.
Their Joint skill will try to avert
the danger. The military will let
cannons speak if and when diplo
macy has failed.
Von Ribbentrop and Count
Ciano as well emphasized that the
principle purpose of the alliance
was the preservation, of peace. :" .
.Another nrpose"emphasIsed la
the preamble was:
"In the midst of a world of
unrest and disintegration to serve
the task of rendering safe the
foundations of European culture."
Count Ciano also ..told news
paper correspondents of the "de
termination (ot the axis powers)
to demand that the knots still
throttling the life ot Europe be
jindone." i -
This was taken to Indicate that
Poland's grip upon Danzig has be
come a matter In which Italy as
well as Germany Is vitally Inter
ested. The pact became effective at
the moment ot signature, Its
'first period" to cover 10 years
and, the two nations conferring
with each other 'before Its lapse
with a view to extending it.

FDR Assails
Foes in Talk
To Retailers
Critics of . New Deal!
Economics Are Held
as ?ltiflcl
Taxes on Business Are
Defended as Need
of Economics -
WASHINGTON. May H.-UP-
rresiuent Roosevelt denounced
critics of his economic program
tonight as "radicals' eager "to
gamble"- with the safety of the
nation, and bluntly gave notice he
would sanction no abandonment
of administration "principles and
objectives. 1 -
Addressing the retailers na
tional forum, the chief executive:
Asserted that If "so called
business "deterrent taxes," such
as the undistributed profits tax,
are repealed, other taxes on busi
ness must be increased to replace
the revenues thus lost.
Said that while "the conserva
tive attitude of this administra
tion" hardly contemplates a per
manent excess ot government ex-
penditures over receipts, "balanc
ing the budget today, or even next
year, Is a pretty difficult If not
Impossible job."
Spending Policy
Is Defended
Vigorously defended the admin
istration policy ot government
spending and lending for the pur
pose of maintaining consumer
purchasing power at a high level.
with a statement that it "is the
milk In the cocoanut of all busi
ness.
And said:
"Today, with no danger of sur
plus of goods overhanging the
market Just because -we have
tried to keep consumer purchasing
power up to production the na
tion is in an exceUent position to
move forward into a period of
greater production and greater
employment" j -
Repeatedly. . tho president re
ferred to himself and his associ
ates as the nation's conservatives,
and to certain of his foes as the
"radicals.' j
Some administration critics, he
said, were "eager to gamble; the
safety of the nation and our, sys
tem of private enterprise on noth
ing more than their personal
hunch that If government will
Just keep Its hands off the eco
nomic system, customers will just
happen." He used the word
"gamble" he said, because there
u "nothing in modern experi
ence to support" such a hunch.
Slaps Old Style
Tax System
From 1925 to 1133, he contin
ued, "government abandoned all
concern for business and put. into
effect a tax system such as 'old
dealers' dream about."
"Customers and the buying
power ot customers were left just
to happen. Ton know how many
and how much happened. t
"These people who are playing
the 'it may happen hunch today
are actually the wildest-eyed radi
cals in our midst, because, despite
proved failures, they want to
gamble on their own hunch once
more." , . " 1 , '

LONDON, May 12-VOp posi

commons assailed Britain's new
policy for Palestine today as "an
other victory tor Hitler and Mus
solini" while the government
gave assurances It would give
"proper safeguards' for a Jewish
national home In the Holy Land.
The attack followed opening of
debate on the motion tor approval
of the government's policy by
Colonial Secretary Malcolm Mac
Donald who declared rejection of
the policy by Arabs was the best
answer to Jewish claims that It
placed "Jews at the mercy of the
Arab majority."
Thomas Williams, speaking for
the laborite opposition, said "the
only persons whom Arabs in Pale
stine need fear are Arab terror
ists engaged by the ex-grand mufti
of Jerusalem, who has been re
sponsible for killing oft about
SOOO persons during the last year
or two.
"It la ridiculous to talk about
tear of Jewish domination," Will
iams said, "with Arab states all
around Palestine who would come
to the aid ot their fellow Arabs.'
This fear argument Is a mere
excuse and another victory tor
Hitler and Mussolini and those
who think as they think."

south against President and Mrs. Roosevelt.
On the committee's witness O
stand Gilbert identified a letter
he wrote to his associate, James

listing six Questions "to ask our
Dixie friends. Dies, pointedly pro
hibiting their being made a part
of the record, asserted they were
"too vile for publication." Dog
gedly, Gilbert insisted that they
"should be looked into.
John D. M. Hamilton, chairman
of the republican national com
mittee, took the witness stand to
deny emphatically that he had
any knowledge of Campbell or his
activities when, in response to a
request, he furnished him with a
list of the members of the nation

list Is public property' he said.

Campbell, who also testified to

were "directed at the people of a
certain race. He maintained ' a
