J MEDFORD MSIL TRIBUNE, JfEDEORD, OREGON. FRIDAY, MARCH 30, 1934. PAGE SEVEN OF TRUST REFUSES 10 ENGAGE IN DEBATE Continued rrom page one) a lion and Is going out like a lanVx Foulkea ald that "after virtually challenging me to a debate In which I -was entirely willing to take part, he runs away from It and gives as his excuse -his 'limitations of time and physical strength "I rearet Indeed that Dr. Wtrt'i spasm of pugnaclousness was so short-lived." - A summons was In preparation to day for Wirt to come to Washington and tell the whole story. Represen tative Bulwinkle D N. C), whose resolution for. an Investigation was adopted late yesterday by the house, said Wirt would get an invitation to appear before a special committee, probably late next week. Telegram Guarded. . Poulkes kept close possession of the Wirt telegram. It was In answer to Foulkes' demand that Wirt name "one of the five men foremost in the Dem ocratlc party" credited by the edu- cator -with having said President Roosevelt is only the "Kerensky of this revolution." Insisting that he must keep the detailed information for the special committee, which Speaker Ralney will name next week. Foulkes allowed re porters only a glimpse at the massage from Wirt. The first two words were ( "Secre taty Wallace." "He quotes Secretary Wallace,1 . Foulkes said, "as well as some others, to the effect that brain trusters had not yet decided which way the coun try was going. He declined to de bate with me, but he asked me to help him right what he thought was was a wrong." Foulkes declined to say more. Nor did he elaborate upon Wirt's declina tion to debate the whole subject with him at an open forum here. Wallace Secluded. Efforts to ' reach Wallace for his reaction were unavailing. Close aides t. of the agriculture secretary, however, were inclined to minimize Wirt's lat est action. They pointed out that Wallace had said on numerous occasions that some of the plans underway were experi ments, and that it was too early to tell how they would end. Prior to receipt of the Wirt tele gram, Wallace smiled when news papermen asked him his reaction to the Hoosler scholmaster's statements that some members of the "brain trust" were planning a revolution. "It Is amazing," said Wallace, "the state of mind that newspapers can create at times." ' Wallace has been a frequent target in recent debates on the house floor, particularly because of milk-marketing agreements. Representative Eagle (D Tex.) has been one of those to profess fear of "communism" If the agriculture department's new milk shed plan should be carried out. Several house speakers also have named Dr. Rexford Guy Tugwell, as sistant secretary of agriculture, in the eame connection; Beagle BEAGLE, March 30. (Spl.)

Phone 833 229 K. Riverside set, his Index finger pointed straight at me "under no circumstances will I submit to dictation. "When I am once convinced that a certain course Is the only and the rig,ht one for my nation, I intend to pursue It, come what may. I will do what I do, openly. I will not, for example, pretend outwardly to accept 160,000 men as a basis for our army, Vien secretly arm another 180,000." This statemenv led to a reference to the armaments situation as af fected by France's refusal to approach the problem from the viewpoints of Great Britain, Italy and Germany. "Nobody would rather have seen the world disarm than I," he said. "We want to put our resources to productive purposes. We want to get our Jobless back to work. Next, we want to raise the living standards of everybody. Progress Wanted "We want to drain our swamps and improve our unproductive lands; try to make our nation self-sustaining; enable the farmer to get the maxi mum out of his land and the manu facturer and industrial worker the maximum out of his industry; devise artificial means for supplying what our country may lack In the way of raw materials. "When we build roads, when we dig canals, when we drain swamps, erect dikes, and construct locks, we are doing things which are construct ive, things which may well absorb all our energy. "But as one responsible for the welfare of my country, I cannot have Germany exposed to the possibility that some neighbor may Invade us or drop bombs over our industrial plants or embark upon a so-called preventive war Just to distract at tention from troubles at home. "It Is for this purpose, and for this purpose only, that we want an army adequate for self defense." No Proletarian Aim I asked him whether, In endeavor ing to obtain employment for all now out of work, he invisaged reduc ing everybody to a proletarian state in other words, whether he would be -content so to spread work that everybody would .have a minimum Income but nobody would be left with larger incomes. Hitler replied: . "Quite the contrary. As the first step, I must avoid the scourge of unemployment, but, once the people are back to work, their purchasing power will naturally Increase. "Prom there it is but another step to improving the living standards. We don't want to become a primitive people but, rather, a nation with the highest possible standard of living. "I approve the American Idea of not equalizing everybody but gradu ating life as if It were like a ladder. There must be a possibility, however, for everybody to climb that ladder. Service for AH "Every new invention rightly Is first the property of the man who made It, but the aim must ever be to place his Invention at the service of everybody. "The first pane of glass was a lux ury, but today everybody uses glass; it has become a common necessity. The first Incandescent light was a luxury, but the idea of the inventor was to make It available to every body. The aim of all progress must be that of making the entire people all humanity happier." I asked him: "What is your atti tude toward criticism, both Individ ual and of the press?" Quickly, the chancellor answered: "Do you realize that 1 have a whole staff of men around me, men versed In numerous phases or economic, so cial and political life, whom I have associated with me for no other pur pose than that I want them to criti cize? "Before we pass any law, I show a draft of it to these men and say, 'Tell me what la wrong with this.' Don't Want Yes Men "I don't want these people to be merely 'yes men.' They are no use to me unless they criticize and tell me what defect might possibly be connected with our measures. "Similarly, I don't want the press merely and solely to take from above what Is handed out. It's no fun to read 18 papers, all of which have almost the same wording. In the due course of time our editors will again be so trained that they can supply their own valuable contribu tions to national reconstruction. "This I can tell you, however" and here his face darkened and 'his voice grew hard"l won't stand for a press that exists exclusively to destroy w,hat we are trying to build up. "If editors aproach our regime with a view of imposing their Intolerant Weltanschauung (world philosophy), Wallace Critic I John Brandt (above) of Minnaap al Is, president of a large creamery concern, was barred from offices of the agricultural department and the farm administration in Washington until he should retract statements against Secretary Henry A. Wal lace. (Associated Press Photo I tell them I then propose to use the modern power of the press Just as efficaciously to fight them. I pro pose to show no quarter whatsoever to agents of enemy powers. Such men violate the laws of Hospitality." . IN CUE CLASSIC CHICAGO, March 30.

Swem's Gift Shop WILL BE SLASHED PORTLAND, Ore., March 30. (AP) The Oregon liquor control com mission today announced that a downward revision in liquor prices In all state stores and agencies will becom eeffectlve Monday. Straight whiskies have been re duced 25 cents a pint, and some will be as low as $1,19 a pint. Bonded American , whiskies will remain un changed. Fourteen brands will be discon tinued because they have not been popular. Two blends, each selling at 70 cents a pint, will be added, and a new line of imported Scotch whisky will be added. George L. Sammls, control board administrator, said prices in Oregon are not due to go much lower until dealers prices have been reduced. A comparison of Washington state liquor store prices with the new Ore gon schedule shows the Washington prices on higher grade liquor to be considerably lower, although prices are higher on liquor of les quality. In Washington the lowest price on Imported Scotch is $3.05 a fifth, com pared with $3.75 in Oregon. Blends are from 15 to 20 cents a pint high er in Oregon. Sammls pointed out that the Wash ington set-up differs from the Ore gon system Inasmuch as in this state some revenue from liquor must be provided for relief purposes, and prices must necessarily be higher to provide this revenue.
