Willkie is on rec ord as favoring a "selective ser vice" Droeram for government operation of American industries during emergencies. After a meeting with party leaders which he described as harmonious and optimistic, the Republican presidential nomi nee told reporters late yester day: "Under the Overton-Russell amendment which the senate adopted to the military selective service bill, industries could be seized bv the government be cause of the caprice of one man. "If a bill were introduced nrovidins that in case of emer gencies industries should be se lected just as in the case of men for the army and . taken over by the government under rules and regulations instead of the arbitrary act of one man, I would be for it."

Washington, Sept- 6 President Roosevelt said today that Costa Rica and Ecuador were cooperating completely with the United States in plans for defense of the Americas, but he added that no negotiations for acquisition of additional naval air bases were now under way with any country. Asked about reports that Costa Rica had offered to this country Cocos Island, about 600 miles northwest of the Panama canal in the Pacific, for a base, the president replied that all he could say on that was that there was complete cooperation be tween Costa Rica and the United States in the defense of the Americas. Another question at Mr. Roos evelt's press conference was whether the Galapagos islands, about 1,000 miles southwest of the canal, were involved in talks with Ecuador. He made the same reply, namely, that Ecuador was working with this country on continental defense. OF T ; r i FARM MA N Successor to Henry A. Wallace in the cabinet, a secretary of sericulture.
