dent Roosevelt Is about to attempt

diplomacy of his administration ex
tension to the old world of a system
of understandings modeled on the
Buenos Aires treaties for the preven
tion of war.
This Information comes from high
ly unquotable persons.- who Assert
that Sumner Welles, undersecretary
of state, haa carried to Europe defi
nite Instructions on the subject.
Mr. Wellea' present Job. according
to those who declare their opinion
Is based on more than speculotlon,
la simply to offer "tentatlves," as
they are called In diplomatic lan
guage. In other words, he will, in
highly confidential conversations,
suggest not merely the calling of a
warprevention conference, but offer
a concrete goal the negotiation of
covenants, for which the Pan-American
agreement would be the model.
If ' Undersecretary Welles receives
n o encouragement from E u -rope's
statesmen, the little chats
will be considered "as not having
occurred."
'If Mr. Roosevelt's suggestions are
accepted, he will' have achieved the
objeotlve which' he plainly stated at
the time he Invited the Latin Ameri
can nations to Join In the "good
neighbor' parleys In the Argentine
capital last winter.
At that time, the president said
concerning the proposed "lnter-Amer-Ican
peace Instruments" that, they
would advance the cause of world
peace." Inasmuch as the agreements
which might bo reached would "sup
plement and reinforce the League of
Nations and other existing or future
peace agencies In seeking to prevent
war."
Sumner Welles, chosen as the ad
vance man. played a prominent part
In the Buenos Aires conference and
has been the Interpreter of the
treaties at various public gatherings.
.In an address last October, out
lining American foreign policy In rela
tion to tho prevention of war, he
quoted Secretary Hull to the effect
that "the outstanding question be
fore the world today Is peaco." He
then added:
"It Is In the furtherance of that
great end that the thoughts and ef
forts of the administration have been
exerted night and day during the
past years."
Semi-official statements made It
clear that the administration's hope
was to lay the groundwork In the
western hemisphere for a system of
understandings which would be ex

Senator Walsh Cites
Alleged Membership
In Clan Organization
BOSTON, Sept. 13. API Senator David I. Walsh (D.. Mass.) to
day asserted that If Justice Hugo Black of the supreme court, had not
resigned "from his alleged life membership" in the Ku Klux Klan he
felt the Justice "was confirmed by the senate under a misunderstand
ing and misapprehension, and the president should ask for his resignation."
Referring to published reports that ,
Black had resigned from the Klan in
1925, but later had accepted a life
membership In the organization, the
Massachusetts senator said:
"If it turns out now that he is
an actual member of the Klan, this
may account for the speed with
which his conflrmatldn was rushed
through the senate without full In
vestigation and without advance no
tice to senators."
Walsh said he was not present in
the senate on the day Black was
confirmed, being absent In connec
tion with his duties as chairman of
the senate naval affairs committee,
but that he was informed on his re
turn, "that some senators voted for
his confirmation because they did
not want to do him an Injustice in
the absence of proof that he 'was a
member of the Klan."
Continuing In a statement dic
tated to newsmen, Walsh added:
"Furthermore, they informed me
that telegrams were displayed in the
senate from prominent Catholics and
Hebrews of Alabama endorsing Sen
ator Black and Infcrcntly denying
the allegation that he was a Klans
man. "This Information came to me,
upon my return, from senators with
whom, I communicated from sea by
radio requesting not to bo recorded
in favor of his confirmation."
'PURELY POLITICS'

active New Deal supporter said today
the charges made in New York by
Senator Royal S. Copeland In the
New York mayoralty race accusing
Supreme Court Justice Hugo Black
of being a member of the Ku Klux
Klan were "purely political."
Senator Logan said:
"Tho whole story is that the at
tack on Justice Black Is purely po
litical and probably without foun
dation.
"Tho charge Is being made for the
purpose of attracting New York votes
"While I am quite sure Justice
Black is not a member of the Ku
Klux Klan, what would we do if he
were. I have never heard of any Jus
tice being required to resign becaus
of affiliations with any organization
he may have chanced to Join."
