MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, BEDFORD. OREGON, THURSDAY. DECEMBER 7, 1939. PAGE THREE TO SIGN TREATY English, French, American Efforts To Bring On 'Im perialist War' Recited. Moscow, Dec. 7. (AP) Ru mania was urged to sign a mu tual assistance pact immediate ly with the Soviet Union in an article Dublished today in "Communist International,' mouthpiece of the international communist organization. The puDlication aeciarea me rjact should be similar to the treaties the TJ. S. S. R. signed recently with Latvia, Estonia and Lithunia, through which she gained naval and military bases on the soil of the three Baltic states. The Comintern article de clared: "English and French reac tionary bourgeoise supported inn by the American financial Oli-j garchy are striving to involve the small countries in an im perialist war." 'The political and economic situation in Rumania, contin ued the comintern organ, makes It virtually necessary for the peoples inhabiting Ru mania to establish most friend ly relations with the Soviet Union. ' Pact Imperative Onlv a mutual assistance pact with Russia and the struggle of the "toilers of city and village" against all reactionary forces can prevent Rumania from be coming involved in a seconci imperialist war," the article declared. The article urged intensifica tion of the activity of the Ru manian Communist party and struggle against social demo cratic leaders. Any attempt by Russia to bring Rumania to her knees by force might place Great Britain and France at war with the Soviet Union. France and Britain on April 13, 1939, pledged themselves to give Rumania full military sup port if her independence were threatened by aggression. At the same time the allies made a similar pledge to Greece. In case of a Rumanian-Russian war, Italy too might enter the fray. During recent months Fascist leaders have repeatedly warned the Soviets that any attempt against the independ ence of Balkan states would be met with force.

"Here," Dewey said, "is the whole outlook of the new deal: The established plants are all right. But the new plants, the new adventures, the new indus tries, are unnecessary and even possibly undesirable. There is nothing left to do. All that re-i mains is to divide up what we got from the Indians." Wrong Philosophy "With this philosophy I total ly and absolutely disagree," he continued. Dewey announced at the out set of his speech before 9,000 persons who packed the big aud itorium in which he made his debut as a national political fig ure that "Tonight I am not go ing to attempt to state solutions of those specific problems" of agriculture, labor, unemploy ment, business and finance. "Our difficulties." he said, "must be dealt with as a whole. I wish to discuss the thing we must first get clear in our minds if we are to be successful in dealing with any of those prob lems. "First of all, we must make up our minds whether we be lieve in the continued growth of this country or whether we believe we have reached our economic limit. Crisis Of Faith It is true that we have a crisis here in America. But ours is a crisis of faith faith in our selves, in our system, and in our own traditions. On the solu tion of that crisis everything de pends. If here we can rout de featism, if here we can regain courage and unbounded activity, if here we can unite industry and agriculture and labor for an invincible America, then, and then only, can we contrib ute to the peace of all the world's people. "Our problems are massive. They are acute. They can't be wished away by singing 'Happy Days Are Here Again.' Happy days are not here again. "It is a duty of national gov ernment to perform its social obligations. I believe this ad ministration has sincerely at tempted to fulfill those obliga tions. But that is only half the job. The other half is to main tain, to encourage the economic system which supports the gov ernment and makes perform ance of social obligations pos t" say I aint goin" to kiss no babies, unless they is girls an' over sixteen. An' I aint goin' t' promise nothin' t' nobody t' git a vote. I sure would like t' be sheriff t' be perticler which party I t' be pericler which party I gits to 'lect me, neather.

Wat one han' does th' other don't need to know about. So if any sticks to th' han' 'at's outside mebbe we kin call "velvet." An' I kin figger some other ways t' git a little on th' side.
