PACE TWO The OREGON STATESMAN, Salem. Oregon, Tuesday Morning, February 13, 1940 Strife in Near East Unlikely Transfer of Aniacs Seen as Evidence Britain SUIi Rule Seas By KIRKE L. SIMPSON iiMriiM Frtat Staff Writer 'Despite stress laid 1b London and Parte on allied troop concen trations In the near east. It ap pears doubtfal that the European war will spread into that theatre at any early date. Franco-British lines In the near east hare now been strengthened by arrival at Saes of anajaAnsae" contingent of British cuioniala. The- sise of the Australian-New Zealand force has not been dis closed, bat Its arrlral In fori and unmolested by Germany has a doable significance. Am nnhampered movement of troop of the proportions Indi cated over thousands of miles of sa Illustrates both to Franco British and to neutral public opinion the dominant role of al lied sea power at this stage of the war. Within less than six months. Franco-British naval power has cleared the seas of the world of German menace to allied shipping except in the narrow seas about the British Isles. Largely Defensive Stress laid In London and Paris a pea near eastern maneuvers, both military and diplomatic, raised wide speculation as to whether Franco-British strategy locked toward extending the war in that direction in spring. The Ansae movement is bound to in tensify that speculation, both among neutrals and in Berlin and Moscow. There are strong arguments, however, against any present al lied move to strike at German oil resources either in Rumanian or Russisn fields. In the light of them, the allied troop concentra tions la the near east appear pri marily defensive steps, designed to stabilise rather than to upset the status quo there, n 1 . I 1 I. 1 . troop concentrations of peace times to nrotect her Ukranian "breadbasket" and her huge oil fields centering around tlj Cas pian seaport of Baku. Wheat and oil are her major concerns and probably 76 per cent of all Rus sian oil comes from the Baku area. Germany, which draws some part of her war oil needs from Russia, has every reason to strike to keep Russia and Turkey from entering the war. Allied German policies in the near east march to gether to that extent. That tends to give allied troop concentrations there the look of maneuvers to curtail the war theatre, hold it to Its present scope, rather than preparations to involve the near east and the Balkans la the strug gle. Allied strategy still counts for victory on economic power. Finnish War Factor There is another factor bearing on the situation pointing even more strongly towsrd the improb ability of an early spread of the war Into the near east or to the n.lWla lualainl. Tk.t I. V .Mil ascertain outcome of the Rasso Flnnlsh conflict. A new crisis Is Impending on the vital Karelian isthmus in Fin land. Russian official claims as sert that the red army has fought Its way Into a score or two of Finnish strong forts on that point. The Finns counter with claims thst every Russian thrust has bee a turned back with heavy red losses tn men and equipment. Eye-witness accounts by neutral war correspondents permitted a close view of the front by the Finns tend to bear out the Finnish version of what has been happen ing In nearly two weeks of head on Rnirsian attack. The news writers could see no evidence of s cracking up of the Finn defense. Signs of Faltering The sustained red army effort already shows signs of faltering. If It falls, another reorganisation au in auhiu command in r in land and replacement of battered red divisions (here with fresh troops would be In order. Moscow cos Id not reasonably contemplate aggression elsewhere, la Rumania er across the Black sea, until the Finnish adventure Is concluded. Little Finland's stand has al ready, stalled Russia's westward ssarca ana niiowea me siues ume to complete a mobilisation In the ear oast which seems likely to prod sco s prolonged stalemate there la a' military sense. It la till a war of economic forces with allied Uoop movements shaped to that pattern rather than to any frontal or flaak military attack.

Hamilton, the chair man of the republican national committee, called for a reritalixa tion of "the forces of free enter prise now dormant in American life." This, he said, would "mean a broadening Justice and a higher standard of living for labor," and "a fair chance" for the investor and businessman to make a profit. "It will mean." he added, "In creased consumers for the pro ducts of our farms." The speakers Included not only Senator Taft, but Mrs. Taft as well. At the New York dinner, she said the problems of govern ment present "a challenge to our capacity for self-government." "Our pride in our free govern ment is challenged," she added, "for we are proud of our Ameri can heritage of liberty which oar grandfathers and grandmothers gave to us, of the union which our fathers and mothers saved for us-They are ours In trust for our sons and daughters. The 'new woman' and the grand old party, will be true to that trust. We will fight for a chance for young America to go forward In a free and solvent country."

He was reported killed in Sunday's fighting on the isthmus. - Finnish authorities took keen Interest in reports reaching Hel sinki of a possible crisis between Russia and the two baltlc states from which she gained conces sions last fall, Estonia and Lat via. The chiefs of the armies of Latvia and Estonia were said to have conferred on defense of the two states and the Latvian presi dent, Karl Ulmanis, recently hint ed In a radio speech at possible trouble ahead. -Hussia's communique reported the capture of 32 defense fortl cations yesterday on the Karelian isthmus and said enemy losses in the past few days included 230 machine guns and 82 guns. The Russians previously re ported taking 16 fortifications Sunday while last Thursday's communique said 13 'artillery forts" nad been captured. The French communique on the western front developments mere ly said "nothing of importance to report." Netherlands Irate At Vessel's Sinking Shipping news was topped by the disclosure of the torpedoing of the Netherlands freighter, Burgerdijk, 6,853 tons, by a sub marine and the sending of an SOS by a nazl freighter attempting to run the British blockade off the Brazilian coast. Indignation and dismay spread through The Netherlands when it became known the Burgerdijk was sent to the bottom Saturday off the southwest coast of England. Her captain said his ship was tor pedoed without any reason being given by the submarine comman der.. About 41 survivors were res cued by The Netherlands freighter Edam. The SOS was from the 3771-ton German freighter Wakama, which slipped out of Rio de Janeiro late Sunday night. A Spanish vessel 48 miles from the Wakama went to her aid. Brazilian observers eaid the freighter might hare en countered a British warship. In the far east, Japanese mili tary authorities reported that a Chinese army supporting former Premier Wang Ching-Wei had landed on the coast of F u k i en province and Is fighting the army of Generalissimo Chiang Kai-Shek. The Japanese are suportlng Wang in his program to form a new cen tral Chinese government which will cooperate with Tokyo. German Freighter Scuttled by Crew (Continued from Page 1.) boat was set afire. We saw both the Dorsetshire and Shropshire af terwards. "As far as I know, the crew of the Wakama is still in small boats because in wartime when a ship sets herself afire or scuttles her self a warship has no obligation to rescue the men. At least, definite ly they are not aboard the Haw kins." The Hawkins was the only one of the three British cruisers to put into Rio de Janeiro. The 3771-ton Wakama, which slipped out of Rio de Janeiro har bor last midnight, broadcast an SOS this afternoon, and shortly afterward two rescue ships which raced to the scene reported they found nothing afloat. Both the Spanish steamer Ar riara Mendl and the Brazilian pas senger ship Bage said they found nothing, and the Bage said she was searching for survivors.

Governor Lehman wiped out several years ago the $100,000, 000 deficit he inherited from Franklin D. Roosevelt as chief state executive in 1933, but the heavy unemployment relief load and falling revenues have com bined to compile a new debt which the executive estimates will be 328.000,000 at the end of the current fiscal year.

Nine Million.Who Need Work, Issue So Affirms Tom Dewey in Portland Interview; Praises McNary (Continued from Page 1.) him as a candidate in the primary of his own state." When a reporter said that a morning press conference answer to a question on the chances of men from the east and west coast being tied up on the republican ticket had given the Impression that Dewey would like a ticket naming him and McNary, Dewey said the interpretation was wrong. "I did not mean to indulge in the role of prophet or to sug gest how the ticket should be made up," he stated. Withholds Views On Tariff, Security Questions on his attitude to ward reciprocal tariffs, particu laVly as affecting the lumber in dustry, Dewey preferred not to answer. He said he has a speech scheduled on the tariff issue and that the problem is necessarily so broad that it must be considered all at once. He also had nothing yet to say on the farm question. Asked his views on the effect of social security and other pay roll taxes on business, Dewey re plied: "We shall hare to find out what the real effects are in an ad ministration which will let econ omy go ahead, an administration which does not periodically ap ply punitive taxes to a business which has done something the ad ministration does not like or which does not fit its theories, and thirdly, an administration that will attempt to balance the budget." Schedule Makers Accorded Praise Dewey met all the newspaper men at the conference, chatted with several about mutual ac quaintances in Michigan. He com plimented the Multnomah county republican organization for the smoothness with which his sche dule was handled. "Our schedule has never run anywhere as near on time," he said, and added that he was just six minutes behind schedule. The candidate said that one of the biggest receptions was in Portland, Maine, but that he bene fitted by the fact that the Gover nor of Maine, ahead of him In line, had massive hands. "When they got past the governor," Dew ey smiled, "they were a little dis couraged." When a newspaperman remark ed that the candidate had appar ently not been in New York long enough to acquire the New York accent, Dewey responded, "Why should I? I lived 21 years in Mich igan and I've been only 16 in New York." At the close of the session, Dewey arose at a signal from one of his secretaries. He had Im mediately to meet a delegation of high school Journalism students, who had been waiting two hours. Citizenship Lost By Fritz Thyssen BERLIN, Feb. 1 t.-0fp)-P r i t s Thyssen, once one of the wealth iest men in Europe and an indus trialist whose support did much to raise Adolf Hitler to power, be came a man without a country to day. A decree published in the offi cial Gazette, signed by Interior Minister Wilhelm Frick with the approval of Foreign Minister Joa chim von Ribbentrop, deprived Thyssen and his wife of their German citizenship. Informed quarters described the action as the final break between the naxis and their one-time supporter. (Thyssen and his wife h s v e been in voluntary exile in Switzer land since last November, living quietly st the best hotel la Lo carno. He has steadily declined to give an explanation of his break with Hitler).

SHANGHAI, Feb. 13-(Tuesday) -(A) A Chinese army supporting former Premier Wang Ching-Wei has landed on the coast of Fukien province and is fighting the forces of Generalissimo Chiang Kai- Shek, Japanese military authori ties here stated today. Without mentioning where the troops came from, the Japanese said they had landed Monday at an unnamed spot "with the coop eration of the Japanese army and navy." The Japanese, who are support ing Wang in his program to form a new central Chinese government in cooperation with Tokyo and in oppositionto Gen. Chiang's Chungking regime, called the force the "Peace and national re construction army."

The Japanese hinted the force was about 60,000 strong. Dictatorship Fear ! Stressed by Taft New Dear Victory in 1940 Would Be License to Rule Unchecked GREENSBORO. NC, Feb. 12.- -senator Kobert A. Taft, re publican nresldentinl declared here tonight that the umiea states must decide whether It will remain a republic of its historic pattern or become a government by a totalitarian ex ecutive. Speaking at the republican party's Lincoln day rally for iNorcn carouna, the Ohio senator predicted that "if the new deal were licensed to proceed in the IP 40 election," the result would be "a modern, streamlined totali tarian dictatorship." "This country in I8 60," Taft said in a prepared address, "faced the greatest crisis in its history whether it should remain a na tion or be broken up into two or more bitterly hostile states. Through the calm determination of Abraham Lincoln, we were pre served a nation, but only after the frightful trial of civil war. "Again in 1940 we face a fundamental decision whether this country shall remain the kind of country which our fathers made and Lincoln preserved, a republic protecting the inalienable rights, the freedom and liberty of Its In dividual citizens, or a totalitarian executive with unlimited and un divided power over the lives and activities of Individuals and local governments alike. Slowed up in 88 "The new deal has slowed up today because the people in 1938 elected a congress which, repre senting its constltuients, disap proves of more government power and spending. In effect, we have a deadlock in congress today. The new deal is unable to force its wishes on congress but the re publicans and anti-administration democrats are not strong enough to change any existing policy. "If the new deal were licensed to proceed In the 1940 election, w would see the course of the last six years accelerated more power, more regulation of every phase of life, more billions bor rowed and poured out to retain the spenders in power, until the government is the servant, not of the people, but of its pension ers. We could not stop until fi nancial collapse and a subservient con rress nroduced a mnAmrn streamlined totalitarian dictator ship. First Baptist Quintet in First Half Finals The First Bantist. In fl.

Dewey charged that "the new deal has totally failed to recog nize these fundamental truths" but instead "tells us our indus trial plant is all built . . . That government spending of a nation's savings Is the answer." "Is it any wonder," Dewey asked, "that one-third of the na tion is ill-clothed, ill-housed and ill-fed, as the president has said? It It any wonder that nine mil lions of our people are still out of work?" Farm Price Parity Held Serious Talk Development in the United States is lagging, Dewey said, "be cause of the nation-wide under current of distrust and fear of the shifting policies of the adminis tration in Washington . . . Be cause the new deal has vilified business men, levied punitive taxes and in the name of legiti mate reform has sought to rule or in In the commercial life of the country." One of the causes of national discord, the candidate declared, has been "a total failure to re store a reasonably parity between industrial and farm prices, leaving the farmer unable to sell at a prof It while labor and capital in in dustry are both unemployed." "That's why the farmer gets no fair exchange for his labor," Dew ey said. ". . . Any administration which pretends to be the friend of the people and yet neglects this problem is no friend of the peo ple. "More than that." he continued, "any administration which cannot make peace between warring fac tions of labor, or even between It self and labor or business, is a failure. And when such an admin istration cannot make peace even in its own ranks it ought to be put out to make way for a united republican administration."
