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;

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),

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.
