GOV. BAFI.EY OF ARKANSAS
MAY SEEK FEDERAL AID
FARM VMOy VIOLENCE
HELD POLITICAL MOVE
CANDIDACY FOR ROBINSON
SENATE SEAT AT STAKE
OLD AGE BENEFITS
NOW CALLED 'INSURANCE
WASHINGTON, Oct. 8.The de
partment of Justice hasn't heard the
bad news yet, but It may be called
upon shortly to pull a red-hot po
litical chestnut out of the fire. The
chestnut Is now roasting In Arkansas
and the temperature la rising so
rapidly around Governor Carl Bailey,
candidate for the seat of the late
Senator Joe Robinson, that his
friends say that a call for help from
Washington is the only way out.
The situation Is this:
Efforts to organize the tenant far
mars Into a O. I. O. union In Arkansas
ha4 some rough going In the past,
but things were moving fairly
smoothly until recently, when a
member of the union was allegedly
beaten up In a courtroom. This, say
Governor Bailey's friends. Is a fore
runner of further trouble which they
declare la being fomented to embar
rass the governor's candidacy for the
senate.
The plan, they assert. Is to force
the governor to Interfere In behalf
of the tenant farmers and then
charge that he Is using his office to
help "the reds." (Some of the lead
ers of the union are said to bo com
mimlsta). On the other hand, If tho governor
doesn't Interfere, he Is threatened
with the loss of the agricultural
workers vote, which is nothing to be
sneezed at.
And so about all there Is left for
Governor Bailey to do Is to pass the
hot potato to Uncle Sam and let his
advocates, who managed to blast their
way Into "bloody" Harlan county.
Kentucky, take a band In Arkansas.
The department of Justice had one
taste of Arkansas temper before
when, deapit an atmosphere of In
tense antagonism. Its lawyers man
agl to obtain at least one Important
Indictment. They convicted a town
marshal by proving he was holding
workers in & technical state of slavery.
There are several reasons why the
federal government doesn't like to
move Into Arkansas. First, there Is
the strong local feeling against the
Intrusion of "outsiders" in general;
secondly, state rights is by no means
an academic question there: and
thirdly, of course, there Is strong ra
cial feeling.
Very cautiously, and with no bally
hoo, the social security board has
done away wtth "old age benefits"
and created "old age insurance" to
take Its place.
This change In nomenclature In
volves no change In the function of
the old age bureau. But, according

Emphatic Call Voiced
For Positive Efforts
In Peace Restoration
By D. HAROLD OLIVER
CHICAGO. Oct. 5. (P; A demonstatlve throng of midwest cltleenry
heard President Roosevelt rip Into war-inclined natlona today In sounding
an emphatic world-irdling call for "concerted" action for restoration of
universal peace.
Pacing a crowd estimated by police
at 60,000 gathered to watch him dedi
cate Chicago's outer link, highway
bridge, the chief executive in a stir
ring plea for sanctity of treaties and
sanity in International dealings, as
serted: "There must be positive endeavors
to preserve peace."
He did not disclose what he had in
mind In this direction but he hinted
at measures which in effect would
"quarantine" the militaristic "10 per
cent" to protect the 80 per cent of
the world population he described as
peace loving.
Epidemic Spreading
"When an epidemic of physical dis
ease starts to spread, the community
approves and joins In a quarantine
of the patients in order to protect
the health of the community against
the spread of the disease."
The president motored to the cen
ter of Chicago's centennial Jubilee
celebration through a downtown
storm of ticker tape and paper scraps.
Scores of thousands lined Michigan
boulevard and other streets to cheer
him along.
The weather was mild, a warm sun
permitting the president and mem
bers of his party to go out without
topcoats.
The great throng cheered for a full
minute and railroad locomotives and
river boats shrieked their whistles as
tho president stood before a battery
of microphones to broadcast to the
nation over three hook-ups hla most
Important message on foreign affairs
since ho took office.
Mayor Edward J. Kelly presented-
hlm as "our friend and good neigh
bor." Peace Hopes Wane
The president declared the hopes
of mankind for a continuing era of
international peace, raised to great
heights with the signing of the Kel-logg-Brland
pact 15 years ago. had
"lately given away to a haunting fear
of calamity."
Cheers and handclapplng greeted
hla declaration that there "must be
a return to a belief In the pledged
word. In the value of a signed treaty"
and recognition of the fact that "na
tional morality la aa vital aa private
morality."
"America hates war." he said em
phatically. "America hopes for peace.
Therefore, America actively engages
in the search for peace."
He charged aggressor nations with
violating the covenant of the League
of Nations, the Kellogg-Brland pact
and the nine-power treaty guaran
teeing the territorial integrity of
China, and of "Ignoring" humane In
stincts. Deteriment For pence
This, he said, was creating a "state
of international anarchy and Insta
bility from which there Is no escape
through mere Isolation or neutral
ity." Another enthusiastic demonstra
tion followed hit, statement that he
was determined to ''pursue a policy of
peace and to adopt every practicable
measure to avoid Involvement In
war."
After his speech, the president left
to have luncheon at the home of
Cardinal Mundelein. He waa not
scheduled to leave for Hyde Park. N.

JAPANESE PLANES

By JAMES A. MILL
SHANGHAI, Oct. 6. ( API United
States marine were sprayed with
shrapnel today and forced to evacu
ate their defense outposts along the
northern boundary of Uie Interna
tional settlement when Japanese war
planes rained IS bombs on one of
China's largest flour mills Just across
the 40-yard-wlde Boochow creek.
The Japanese claimed to have driv
en China's war planea from the air,
a spokesman asserting that some 300
Chinese fighting war craft had been
destroyed In the three months of un
declared war. The Japanese drive to
crack the fc hi new defense post lions
In the Chapel sector was halted on
land, fcowrver. and Chinese machine
guns mowed down Japanese marines

Aa the battle rned Jim across the
nurrow creek from the Amrrlcnn po
sitions. Brig. Oen. John C. Beaumont
ordered hla marines to withdraw tem
porarily out of the lino of fire.
The marines reoccupled their po
sitions two hours later. General
Beaumont explained the withdrawal
was ordered because the Japanese
bombardment did not endanger the
International settlement and there
fore It was needless to risk American
lives in holding the dangerous out
poata. The Chinese and Japanese lines
were no farther apart than ten yards
at many points of the line through
the devastated Chinese city. The
Pantheon theatre waa changed Into a
no-mar)' land with Japanese sand
bag barricades at the hack door and
Chinese, at the front door.
Japanese bombers dumped load af
ter load on the area and In rapid
succession landed three direct hits
on Shanghai's north station which
is now a badly battered ruin.
As the bitter day's fighting for the
environs of Shanghai ended In ap
parent stalemate. Japanese war planes
