WASHINGTON, Oct. 10. What is
behind Herr Hitler's sudden screams
for anna equality now la his bad po
litical situation at home.
He does not need equality. He could
not use It If he got It. He has In
sufficient money to build up to
trench strength.
But there is unrest abroad In his
lsnd. He cannot keep hla wild men
quiet forever by persecuting Jews. So
he Is resurrecting s campaign prom
ise he made years ago and has done
nothing about since. Saber rattllnj
Is a-lw&ys a godo antidote for do
meatlc unrest.
That kind of politics was made
famous in this country by Big Bill
Thompson. He had a. way of getting
himself elected mayor of Chicago on
the world court Issue or King Oeorge
or anything to Jake the people's
minds off affairs at home.
Palpitations.
Nevertheless, Herr Hitler has given
State Secretary Hull palpitation of
the heart. Hull has been burning up
ths ether with radlograma to Norman
Davis at Geneva.
What he fears is one grand explo
sion of the disarmament conference.
We have been nursing that incurable
ailment along for years. Inner plans
are complete to postpone its death
quietly for a while longer.
Our policy there is the same as at
the London conference death by de
crees but NOT by explosions.
Now Hitler raises an Issue which the
powers may not be able to slide out
of so easily. The Ocneva tricks may
he exposed.
That would be too bad.
Change.
Our august diplomats have been
peering more kindly at the Orau re
time In Cuba lately. They are mak
ing no promises, but the word has
been passed down me une m" mr
might recognize the presidential dic
tator If he does certain things.
That Is because Qrau chased the
army oflcers out of the National hotel
and stamped out the last vestige of
revolt. He Is undisputed master.
The "certain things" they want of
him should not be hard to fulfill.
The only Important one la a demand
for reorganization of his cabinet to
Include some of his former adver
saries. Apparently, our people want
the government to have the appear
ance of a coalition which will be last
ing.
The British war debt conference is
as secret that the conferees barely
hold meetings for fear they might
say something to each other.
During the last four days the Brit
ish were here, one meeting was held
It lasted 30 minutes. At the end of
I four days no other meeting was in
prospect.
The truth is the negotiations are
proceeding on the sly. Both sides
want to keep under cover as much as
possible. So they swap memos and
tret together singly at the British
embassy and other places.
There Is a good reason for that.
If reports on negotiations get out the
pressure of public opinion might be
brought to bear on the conferees.
Many erroneous reports usually do
emerge from such gatherings and they
are sometimes embarrassing.
The Idea is to conclude the negoti
atlons before letting anytlng out. That
means It may be a long time brfo.e
you hear the result.
NRA Elt.
Mr, RooMvelt may solve the trouble
about picking a successor for Gen

around and divided up now in a way
which leads officials to believe the
regime will be split two ways.
Enforcement of the codes will prob

why one of Pellx Frankfurter's bo-a.
James Landls. was named on the com

said to be determined to get Com
mtiwloner Humphrey out.
The commission has charge of trade
practices and Is a semi-Judicial body.
It Is the Ideal agency to police the
codes.

FOR LEASE, SALE
Ickes Discloses Plan for New
Corporation to Handle
Construction Spend
Several Hundred Million
WASHINGTON, Oct. 10. (iT)
Secretary lakes disclosed today that
the government was considering es
tablishment of a new corporation to
handle construction and leasing or
sale of low cost housing projects
throughout the country.
Articles of Incorporation, already
drafted, would permit the corpora
tion to go Into cities and through
purchase or condemnation proceed
ings acquire lands In which low cost
housing projects would be erected.
These projects, the public works
chief said, could then be sold or let
to occupants, with the corporation re
paying to the treasury the funds ad
vanced for the work. It la contem
plated that some of the projects will
be merely for establlahment of low
rent homes while others will be for
slum clearance.
The secretary could not estimate
the poalble cost of auch a program,
but hinted It might run Into several
hundred mllllona.
To expedite expendltur eby federal
agencies of approximately tl.500.000,
000 which they have been granted
from the 3.300,000,000 public works
funds, the special board for public
worka today authorized them to re
duce the time for which bids must be
advertised to "a limit consistent with
good practice."
The board also approved a (2,100
460 allotment to the militia bureau
for improvements to national guard
camps.
Allotments Include: Oregon, Ml
930 for Camp Clatsop; Idaho, 3,100
for Camp Boise.-

Oeorge Varnell, sports editor of tbe
