WEEK'S NEWS IN REVIEW (Continued from Page One) As if in reply to “Young T. R.” Bainbridge Colby, anti-New Deal Democrat and a Secretary of State in the Wilson Administration, said, at a rally of Republican women in Philadelphia: “If your decisions are just and dis- nterested, . . . if you think of your »arty as an instrument with which ‘0 serve the country—as you havj ione in some noble moments in the past—you will have accession from the conscience-stricken Democrats of the Nation far beyond your cal- culations, and which will swell your vote not only to the point oi suc- cess but overwhelming victory. “And it will be the victory of America over the enemies of Amer- ica.” On the other hand, the New Deal Eddie Bro- | and many | and the cast supporting | This Soundpheto, transmitted from New York to San Francisco over ordinary telephone from llalifax te mouth of the Mcose Creek, heroic Toronto, Ont., wires, after having been brought by plane New York, depicts the dramatic N. §., gold mine as Dr. R.

At the annual session of the American Newspaper Publishers’ As- sociation, freedom of the press, free- | dom from censorship was empha- sized in two committee reports, adopted by the publishers. The report of the committee on freedom of the press vigorously crit- icized the Senate Lobby Commit- tee, of which Hugo said ‘“campaign of persecution and harrassment against individuals, organizations and newspapers which have in any manner criticized or opposed mem- bers of Congress or measures be- fore Congress.” The report included the Federal Communications Commission in its criticism, holding the Commission “aided and abetted” the Black com- mittee in the seizure of telegrams. The publishers, however, toned down their report somewhat to elim- inate a direct slap at the Roosevelt Administration. As it firiginally read, the resolution used the ex- pression “the policies of the present National Administration”; but this was changed to “members of Con- gress or measures before Congress.” The Committee on Radio urged publishers to fight just as vigorous- ly to keep the radio free from een- sorship. At the annual luncheon meeting of the Associated Press, the pub- lishers were told by Sir Willmot Lew- is, Washington correspondent of thci London Times: “Both in England and the United States, the danger which confronts what we call freedom from the press is not chiefly from without, for that we can meet, but from within. “It is, as I see it, a danger which grows with the growth gand increas- ing integration of theé newspaper system—the danger that the free- dom which makes us great and use- ful may make some among us too great, that individuals may acquire a power which (if the freedom we demand is to be ours) they cannot Ben- | Draegermen. ibe prevented from harnessing in the | service of personal ambition rather | than of the community from which their strength flows.” OTHER NATIONAL NEWS In Trenton, the “Ragged Army {of Unoccupation” marched into the assembly chamber of the New Jer sey State Capitol building Tuesday |and announced it was going to re= main there until the state provided funds for relief. Last week, the State Relief Ad- ministration disclosed its funds were exhausted. The Legislature refused to pass a “luxury tax” to raise the necessary funds. The Relief Bu- reau turned over to the municipali- ties the burden of caring for the unemployed and needy. The “March on Trenton” was the result. It was led by the Workers Alliance of America. Across the Great Plains of the Southwest, there spreads fears of another drought perhaps as severe as two years ago. Secretary of Agriculture Henry Wallace said the government, un- less there is substantial rainfall, may have to give its aid again to farm- ers of the Southwest. Apparently 30,000,000 acres are included in the threatened area. Addison H. @Gibson, a Pennsyl- vania farm boy struggled through poverty to success.

S, Scadding, indicated by arrow, timekeeper of the property owned by Dr. D. E. Robertson and Herman Magill. Magill died and the other two men were rescued after ten days’ entombment in the pit fol- lowing a cave-in. Scadding, though suffering grievously from a foot infection and from exhaustion, came to the surface smiling—and immensely grateful for his delivery at the hands of the heroic gold mine pit of Charles Alfred head of several oil companies. When he died in Tulsa a week ago, he left a fortune of $2,300,000. His will, filed this week in Pitts- burgh, provided for the creation of the Addison H.

The Daily Alaska: Empire’s |Talking Reporter will also- be & (feature of the evening's entertain- {ment. Assisted by Genevieve Tobin and Anita Louise, Martini enacts the lleading roles in this picture which describes the tragedy, the comedy and the romance in the life of a man with a golden voice. The story, which moves from New York to bohemian Paris, is that of a man who is loved by two women, but who really laves only one. His success, however, depends on the woman whose affection he can- not reciprocate, and there are many amusing and some near-tragic ad- ventures before “he achieves suc- eess and the romance for which he yearns. Among the operatioc favorites which Martini sings are arias from the work of Mascagni,Leancavallo and Puccini, supplemented by two new popular songs by Con Conrad and Herb Magidson. Among important scenes of re- cent world events shown and de- scribed by The Empire Reporter are: President Roosevelt's son don- ning make-up and costume to par- presented by members of a club in Harvard College, a vessel crash- ing along Oregon State's shore, floods in the East, and pictures of the circus members getting ready for their summer season. tune for charity. The bulk of it will be used to procure medical aid for the improverished sick and to help young men obtain college edu- cations. OTHER FOREIGN AFFAIRS The British learned the cost of increased armament program for home defense. They found out in the 1936-37 budget estimates of Ne- ville Chamberlain, Chancellor of the Exchequer. The defense policy calls for an in- crease in military appropriations of 41,000,000 pounds. The standard in- come tax rate was raised more than one per cent., to 23.7 per cent. The tax on tea was raised four cents. RIOTS IN PALESTINE The Jewish colonization of Pales- tine has been accompanied by re-| peated outbreaks of violence between Jews and Arabs. Rioting broke anew this week in the neighborhood around the all- Jewish center of Tel-Aviv. Before high commissioner Sir Arthur Gren- fell Wauchope could restore a sem- blance. of order, 17 Jews and six Arabs were killed. One hundred and | fifty persons were injured. | In Honduras, a revolution raged | briefly against the government of President Tiburcio Andine. For several days, the government imposed a striet censorship. After the Andino regime elaimed the rout | of the rebels, the brief existence of the revolt was officially announced.
