places.
Followers of General Manuel

Washington, July 11. P
Secretary Hull said today that
reported German activities in
Latin America In connection
with the forthcoming Havana
conference apparently was a
species of intimidation of na
tions whose sovereignty was en
titled to the fullest respect
The conference of American
nations will meet July 20 to
consider methods of joint ac
tion on western hemisphere de
fense and economic unity.
Hull's comment was prompted
by questions at his press con
ference about dispatches, par
ticularly from Central Ameri
can countries, reporting that
German diplomats had warned
the governments of those coun
tries against any action aimed
directly or Indirectly at Ger
many.
This German warning was
reported to have been given
to the Central American gov
ernments by Dr. Otto Reine
beck, the nail envoy to the five
republics.
By Ruth Cowan
Chicago, July 11. iiP) Why
not a woman for vice president?
Mrs. Elizabeth A. Conkey, Il
linois national commltteewoman
asked the question today as dele
gates began arriving for the
democratic national convention.
Just to start the ball rolling.
Mrs. Conkey, who is official con
vention hostess, Cook county
(Chicago) commissioner and a
political worker of 20 years' ex
perience, said:
"I would like to see Mrs.
Mary T. Norton, representative
from New Jersey, vice presi
dent.
"Of course, there Is Mrs.
Franklin D. Roosevelt but we
should save her for the presi
dency later.
"I think there should be a wo
man vice president first before
there is an attempt to elect a
woman president. And I don't
see any reason why a woman
right now could not try for the
vice-presidency."
In Mrs. Conkey s opinion wo
men shouldn't sit back and wait
for that "right time" for a wo
man to come out for vice presi
dent. Now, when the slate is
anybody's guess, is as good a
time as any, she said.
Even if a woman failed to get
the nomination at this conven
tion, she continued, "the first
step would have been taken
and then it would be a case of
try and try again until successful."

NEIGHBORS QUELL
APFLEGATE BLAZE
Washington, July 11
President Roosevelt, using "last
resort" procedure, has deferred
the threatened strike of 30,000
employes of the Railways Ex
press Agency, Inc.
The chief executive inter-
ened after a Friday deadline
was set for the walkout of the
gency's union clerks and term
inal workers. Dispute over
working hours was the main
issue.
In halting the threatened
strike and ordering creation of
fact finding commission, Mr.
Roosevelt invoked the emer
gency measures authorized by
the railway labor act.
George M. Harrison, presi
dent of the AFL Brotherhood
Railway Clerks, who prev
iously announced the strike.
About 50 persons residing In
the neighborhood came out this
afternoon with water buckets
to help put out a fire three
miles up Poorman's creek in
the Applesate district of the
Rogue River national forert. It
was the largest turnout for this
purpose he had ever seen, said
District Ranger Lee Port, who
thanked the people for their
cooperation.
The fire itself was small
caused by a cigaret tossed from
a car, Mr. Port said. Traffic
was tied up and a coupe was
baaly damaged when it ran in
to a standing truck, headquar
ters here said, though details
were lacking.

Red Wine Tasters
Too Enthusiastic
Moscow, July 11. Iff") Wine
tasters on the payroll of the
main Soviet wine trust are show
ing too much enthusiasm for
their work. The result, the gov
ernment newspaper Izvestia com
plained today. Is that their
activities are costing the Soviet
treasury too much; about $400,-
000 annually.
Some of the wine-tasters, as
serted Izvestia, have carried
their professional exuberance to
the point of organizing "col
lective tasting parties.

Salem, July 11. P) Ore
gon's 1941 automobile license
plates, with white numerals on
dark green background, will be
the same colors as those of
Washington state. Secretary of
State Earl Snell said today.
Snell said he doubted that
the plates would be confused
because the Washington plates
will be larger than those of
Oregon and will bear an alpha
betical prefix to the numerals.

IS HELD ESSENTIAL BY
ARMY CHIEF OF STAFF
Washington, July 11.
General George C. Marshall to
day urged enactment of com
pulsory military training to
make posible further Increases
in the army which he said were
"essential."
"We must have an Increase
in our armed forces and can
not expect to get it on a vol
untary basis," the army's chief
of staff told reporters.
General Marshall will testify
tomorrow on the pending
Burke-Wadsforth training bill
which he indicated the wsr de
partment would accept with
amendments he described as
"minor."
"One change favored by the
war department," Marshall said,
was a longer period of combat
training than the eight months
proposed in the legislation.
His statement at a press con
ference wis the first definite
war department pronounce
ment on compulsory training.
