D., Sept. 19.—(#)— “Very grave” was U. 8. Senator Ger- ald P. Nye’s comment here Thursday on the situation in Ethiopia because, he said, Italy “cannot undertake the task in that country without a strong probability of bringing in her neigh- bors.” . ! Discussing the situation in Europe and Africa, Senator Nye said that when Italy moves into Ethiopia, there is grave danger that other na- tions will become involved, especially in view of the events that occurred in 1914 and 1915. “We are going to face a real task in America to stay out of it,” he said. Cites Confiscation Asked what might draw the United States into a European conflict, Sen- ator Nye said that if one of the bel- ligerents were to take an American cargo into # port and confiscate it, there would be a strong war demand. He said no one could guess what the line-up of European powers would be in case of a general war. “The average guess is,” he added, “that Hitler would move against Aus- tria, and things look as if England would be pitted against Italy. I would expect eventually that France would join England, but what will happen, heaven only knows.” Russia Last te Join The senator expressed the opinion that Russia would be the last Euro- {pean country involved. “As. we are »” Nye , “we might as well that Japan will go against Russia.” Of the Republican political’ situ- ation, .Nye said that if the Republican party thought opposition to the New Deal would be sufficient to elect its candidate, it was making a mistake to think the voters would be willing to exchange the New Deal for the Old He added that there was a strong fe among eastern Republicans that to obtain victory, the party must please the western Republican strongholds.

Long was split wide open Thursday by announcements of Lieut. Gov. James A. Noe that Ne would run for governor and Wade O. Martin, public service commissioner, for the United States senate, in the January primary. The announcements dropped like bombshells in the ranks over the ‘State and in the statehouse. Gov. O. K. Allen, who had said the state ticket would be chosen at a caucus to be called by him, refused to believe they were genuine announcements, The governor closeted himself in his office within a group of his as- sociates and discussed the announce- ments feverishly. He said he could not conceive of Noe and Martin tak- ing such steps without his sanction.

FCA Has No Power | yirtiAL ACTORWAR To ‘Kall’ Farm Debt Political Rehabilitation Agences May Take Over Future Loans, Credit Chief Says - fy : Washington, Sept. 19—(7)—Gov. W. I. Myers of the farm credit admin- istration said ‘Thursday rural rehabi- litation agencies might take over seed and harvest loans in the future but that the FCA had no auihority to cancel outstanding obligations. He was commenting on a recent proposal of Gov. Walter Welford, of ‘North Dakota, that seed and harvest loans of “long standing” be liquidat- ed through either the rural rehabili- tation corporation or resettlement ad- ministration. Welford contended it was useless to keep on the books old loans of farmers so impoverished they could not hope to repay them. “If the local rehabilitation organ- izations, working with state or feder- al funds wish to rehabilitate these farmers,” Myers said, “I see no rea- son why they cannot do so. But so far as seed and emergency loans are jconcerned, congress appropriated loan funds and loans have been made. We have no authority to wash them off the slate.” A Myers acknowledged the situation had been discussed with representa- tives of Welford but said no agree- ment had been reached on any pro- gram for “killing off” the debts. “We did discuss the possibility of state rehabilitation corporations tak-/ 9. ‘ing on these loans in the future,” he said. “If they think the farmer fs in such ® condition that he cannot be ex- pected to repay the loans, then some other agency take on this work.” ‘There resettlement thorize funds to pay off ol ed might be able some day to repay their overdue government obligations.
