‘Willkie Charges 1 Roosevelt With llsurping Rights

NEW YORK. Oct. 28 -(AP) —- Wenclell L Willkio asserted tonight that "by public bribery and usurpa- tion of functions formerly delegat- ed to the states" the Roosevelt. ari- minstration has attempted to "make the various state and local govern- ments subservient to Washington."

In an address to the annual for- um of the New York Herald Trib- une, the Republican presidential nominee said:-

"In city after city. and in stata after state, public officials have campaigned on the record of their ability to obtain for their collstit- uents a larger share of the money being poured out by the federal gov- ernment.

"The local governments are en- couraged to become dependent upon federal funds and local officials rre controlled by the deadly threat o1 the withdrawal of federal aid."

Willkie said that "by the judjc. ious use oi federal patronage" the new deal has "strengthened the grip of corrupt political machines upon our cities."

"And these machines, in turn," he continued. “are throwing their enor- mous weight lnto the present elec-

of the biggest states in the union"

Coniending that "democracy can- not survive under conditions of pro- longed depression." Wilikie said that "depressions are the very soil in which dictatorships take root and KY8“! to power."

ll. S. Protests To Italy Gver Bombing

WASHINGTON, Oct. 23-03?)- A formal protest was registed by the United States today over the bombing of American oil proper- ties in the neutral kingdom of saudi Arabia during the attack of Italian bombers on British pet- rolauln sources in the Persian Gulf last week-end.

during the present war, was de- livered to the Italian Ambassador, Prince Coionna, by A. A. Berle, Jr., assistant secretary of state.

It was not disclosed whether a demand was made for compensa- tion for damages but the protest was understood to have been bas- ed ‘chiefly on an alleged violation of neutral territory.

No mention was made of the bombing of oil properties olrvned by the same American interests on Bahrain Island, a British protec- torate ofi the mainland of Saudi Arabia.

Damage to the Saudi Arabian properties, which are owned by the Standard Oil Company of California and the Texas Corpor- ation. was said to have been slight and no casualties resulted.

To Continue Efforts For Lower Rates

MONUION. N. 3.. Oct. B —(O- P) -- The Maritime Board of trade executive meeting here today ex- presed opinion that efforts should be continued to obtain lower costs for transporting feed grains to the Maritime Provinces.

It was agreed that the board's transportation commission give ell possible support to these efforts by the Maritime provincial govern- ments and agricultural societies. The “vital need" of obtaining feed grains at lower delivery costs was outlined by F. Waldo Walsh. d1!‘- ector of marketing for Nova Sco- tie.

The meeting decided f-hlt m0 transportation commission should study further the question of in- ter-tierritorial application of pick-up and delivery service on less than carload freight between the Mari- time Provinces and other parts of Canada.

It. was noted that some industries favored a general application of pick-up and delivery service in east- ern Canada and some Maritime shippers were at a disadvantage be- cause such service was not applicable between the Maritime: and Central Canada.

- Brief mention was made of’ neg- otiations llfifl€l'l\'ll_\' for an adjust- ment in the rates on fresh and froz- en fish to United States destina- tion, action taken regarding rates on apples from Maritime points, and negotiations pertaining lo turnip rates to the Eastern United States.

Japan Has Escape Clause In Axis Deal

By Clark Loo

Associated Press Staff Writer

SHANGHAI, Ocl. 24 --('I‘hursday) D (AP) - The recently-signed Ber- lln- Rome-Tokyo alliance contains s, secret "escape" clause which un- der certain circumstances would give Japan the right to refuse to i181“ any nation "attacking" Italy v Germany, advices from usually W911" informed Tokyo sources reflﬂrwd today. _

Enforcement of the military clause in the treaty depends entirely on the position of Soviet Russia, these sources said.

Unless Japail can obtain what she considers iron-clad asﬁurallcf-‘S of Soviet neutrality in the far east. H1858 informants slate, she will re- sort to the escape clause to tiVOlfl entering the war as an ally of It- aly or Germany if they are at- tacked.

In fills connection.

however. it the many German selling points in neg- otiatillg the zzlizlnce was tile as- surance to Japan that Berlin would guarantee to prevent Russia moving ill on Japan's a.- . c continental in- terests if Japan became involved in a war with the United Sfzltes or both.

Another of the "certain circum- stances" enabling Japan to escape would arise, these sources said, if the United States gave clear indica- tions of relaxing her recently- strelzgtlielieti far-easiern policy and turned h-er attention chiefly toward Europe.

It was understood that in such case it would be left entirely within the judgment of Japan to decide whether such assurances or indica- tions by the United States were suf- ficiently substantial to invoke the "escape" clause.

Foreign official sources in Shang- hai said they could not confirm the "escape clause" reports and received them with great reserve.

Some officials said they were in- clined to believe that the Japanese were circulating the reports deliber- ately as a propaganda manoeuvre in an effort to induce Washington to divert its attention from the far east.

They suggested the pomibility’ that. Japan's belligerent blasts of two weeks ago have failed signallv to "frighten" the United States. Japan now is attempting to create the impression in the United States that the treaty “doesn't mean what it says."

Other informed sources expressed the belief that. if the treaty con- tains escape provisions for Japan it probably included similar provis- ions for other signatories. v

If such loopholes actually exist, they would confirm the first impres- sion here that the signatories of the tri-partite agreement would fulfill its military clause only if it suited their respective convenience —if cir- cumstances should arise which call for invoking the clause.

Greatly Increase‘ ll. S. Aid Rumored Going To Britain

By _C. R. BLACKBURN (Tanadlan Press staff Writer

WASHINGTON. Oct. 23.—LCP)_-< Announcement today that the avia- tion section of the British Purchas- ing Mission in New York would move to Washington, added interest to claims of Roosevelt critics that Canada and the United Kingdom are receiving an increasing amount of United States Will’ implements.

These claimants, opponents of the Roosevelt administration, do not criticize the allegedly un-revealed increase in aid i0 Britain-but they want to know the details.

President Roosevelt and other administration sources remain non- committal and may continue so un- til afler the Nov. 5 elections.

It is claimed that airplane deliv- eries to the British EKHDIFG now are 500 a month, will be 1,000 a month in February and 5.000 by mid-1941.

-w

\ S0me50 flying fortresses Am- erica's huge long-distance bumb- ers, are alleged tu have been sent to Canada for the British government, and to make it more interesting, these sources declare the coveted United States bomb sight has also been given Britain.

President Roosevelt told s quel tloner at his press conference yes- terday that he had heard nothing of the flying fortresses for three weeks, other than what was printed in the newspaper.

Authorities were similarly reticent which questioned about the bomb slg l .

and domination of world trade by

the British Empire and the Uni-

ted States after a veal‘ of war, , Trade Minister lVfacKinnoil in a l statement tonight declared, “this I is convincin evidence oi what . the end of tie conflict must be." ‘

“Resources are the sinews of , war as never before," the Trade Minister said. "To be able to trans- j port these resources and deliver 1 them where the are required is | the keynote of vctory."

The Minister termed Canadas position, from the point of view of commerce. as "remarkably sound" and said this is of utmost impor- tance since international com- merce is vital to Canada and the state of that commerce reflects Canada's domestic welfare.

He said Canada had displaced Germany as the third exporting country of the world, coming next to the United Kingdom and the United States. and declared that "despite the war. which naturally has aided this situation, this is a remarkable accomplishment for a country whose population is only somewhat over 11,000,000."

Larger than in any year in the l last decade, Canadian trade now, stands at $2,149.000.000 for the ,‘ first 12 months of war, an increase over the previous 12 months oi’ more than $592,000,000.

"Exports of Canadian products at $1,l50.000,000 are $159,000,000‘ greater than ollr imports and this

l

balance of trade is highly lmpor-_ ltant." said the minister's state-r merit. "It puts Canadian credits

abroad in a very sound position. In addition there is gold which is not included in these figures."

On the subject of imports. Mr. MacKinnon said they had increas- ed almost 50 per cent over those of the previous l2 months but were largely raw materials which in- dicated busy factories in Canada They will be reflected in advanc- ing exports as time goes on.
