WALLAGE PLEADS | FOR TRADE REVIVAL Tells Civic Forum U. S. Must Decide Upon National or International ‘Policy. By the Associated Press. NEW YORK, November 25—Sacre- | tary Wallace of the Agriculture Depart- ment last night carried his plea for restoration of foreign purchasing power | by systematic efforts to lower tariffs and negotiate reciprocal trade agreements to the civic forum, a group of consumers. After a campaign in the Middle West against the farmers’ holiday movement Wallace came into historic Town Hall | here to urge “a truly scientific revision™ of tariffs. “To get by without any reduction of acreage at all might require the im- portation of nearly a billion dollars more stuff than we received in 1929,” said Wallace after a lengthy exposition of the farm problem’in which he dis- cusced Government acquisition of sub- marginal farm land. Must Examine Resources. “A truly scientific readjustment of our tariff policy would involve the care- ful examination of every product pro- duced in the United States or imported, and the determination of just which of our monopolistic or inefficient industries we are willing to expose to real foreign competition.” The problem, Wallace commented. could not be approached from the view- point of Democrats or Republicans, but from the standpoint of a long-time na- tional plan which the country was will- ing to follow for at least 20 or 30 years. o He declared that the time has come for the Nation to do some “genuine thinking on the tariff problem” in a | new way—and that the thinking should not be done by the special interests Wwhich have stormed Congress success- fully in the past. “The real thinking on the tariff should be done by the consumers, and Lot by the blind, selfish, narrow-mind- President’s Georgia Speech Roosevelt, at Dedication of Warm Springs Building, Praises Spirit of Natives as Vital Factor - in Recovery of Patients. By the Associated Press. * * WARM SPRINGS, Ga., November 25.—The text of the address delivered last night by Presidsnt Roosevelt at the dedication of Georgia Hall follows: Most people have visions of things they would like to see accomplished. Fertunate are those who with their own eyes see the accomplishment becoming a fact. 3 Most of you who are here tonight know the story of Warm Springs dur- ing the past nine years, You know of the hopeful handful of crippled chil- dren and adults who came seeking to walk again and of the growth of our physical facilities and of our medical care to the point where the completion of Georgia Hall gives us a clear idea of the rounded picture of the Georgia Warm Springs of the future. In all these years our splendid prog- ress would have been impcssible had we not had the sympathy, the understand- ing and the help of our neighbors; and tonight I express my appreciation and thanks, first, to you, my neighbors of Warm Springs and Meriwether County. for your true friendship toward me and toward all thcse who have ccme here, and, secondly, to you, the people of Georgia, whose welcome hospitality has culminated in this splendid gift to the fcundation and made me prouder than ever to call this “my other hcme.” Spirit of Understanding. It is the understanding spirit on the part of these who surround us that has 1o learn of the splendid effectiveness of the work we ale doing; to see this beautiful building which for all time will be the center of our work, and especially to understand that thing which we call “the spirit of Warm Springs,” which does so much to supplement the skill of sc'ence. The people of Georgia have given to this work a noble gift. In the name of the trustees of the foundation I thank them, and especially I thank the Georgia Hall Committee, who under the untiring efforts and leadershin of Mr. Cason Callaway and Mr. Cator | Woolford, have made tangible the vision |of many years ago.

That is why the Warm Springs foundation has established itself as a practical success in bringing back so many crippled children and crippled grown-ups to normal activities and at night to the majority of the Nation's cripples—he estimated at more than a half million persons—for restoration to usefulnes through modern, sclentific, | medical and educational development | Speaking intimately, as he expressed it, to his thousands of friends in Georgia, the President accepted Georgia Hall, brick administration building of | the Georgia Warm Springs Foundation, built with $100.000 contributed by the MONETARY POLICY Senator Addresses New: Eng- land Conference—Kirstein Lauds Recovery Program. By the Associated Press. l BOSTON, November 25.—High praise for the N. R. A. by Louis E. Kirstein, member of the National Labor Board, mingled yesterday with the expressed doubt of the wisdom of President Roosevelt’s gold policy by United States Senator Frederic C. Walcott, Repub-| lican, of Connecticut, and outright criticism of the recovery program by Prof. Philip Cabot of Harvard as the ninth New England conference ended. Kirstein praised the recovery program | as responsible for taking 4,000,000 work. ers out of the bread lines and asserted that “only by working together can we bring the countrg out of the economic morass into which % has fallen.” “Let us stop carping negative and small-minded criticism,” he said “Let us rather co-operate in the further development cf what has been a mag- nificent beginning to the end that this great country and all its inhabitants may realize its unlimited potentialities for’ the good life for all.” Praises Johnson's Work Referring to Gen. Hugh Johnsen, na- tional administrator of the N. R. A.. Kirstein said Johnson “had started frcm scratch” in building up the recovery machinery. “Surely mistakes have been made,” he continued. “Surely we still have a long hard pull ahead of us. We cannot and should not expect miracles. But, this being the record, shall we despair of the future? One thing none of us wants; we do not want to go back to the days of ruthless competition, to planless drifting.” At its closing session the conference adopted a resolution calling upon Presi- dent Roosevelt to end uncertainty sur- PLANE VICTIMS BETTER | Three Americans Hurt l Crash Will Recover. | SHANGHALI, November 25 ().—Three Americans injured in the crash of a on Chusan | Island yesterday were in an improved giant Sikorsky airplane condition today. in China Pilot George Rumill of Mount Desert, Me., was suffering from bruises and 3 chock: Co-piot Willam Ehmers of Scarsdale Y. from bruises and broken ankles, and Lincoln Reynolds of Viola, Calif..

LOS ANGELES, November 25 —After laying waste approximately 5200 acres of valuable watershed land and destroy= ing an undetermined number of homes and cabins, the ravaging brush and forest fire in the La Crescenta region was under control today Late estimates placed damage at $1,~ 250.000. It was one of the most de- structive fires in Southern California in recent years. Back fires were set yvesterday after- noon along the edge of the San Gabriel watershed and these effectively halted progress of the flames, which for & time threatened the thickly populated Ear] Canyon and Arrovo Seco, the latter the source of the Pasadena water sup= ply. More than 200 men, however, still patroled fire lines to prevent new fires starting from the smouldering embers | _The heaviest loss was sustained by | the foothill community of Tujunga, which for a time had appeared doomed when the fire, fanned by a 40-mile‘an hour wind, ate its way into the north- ern section of the ¢ Eight large | homes and a number of small cab: were destroyed there.

Warns Against Foreign Loans. Wallace warned against the idea of loaning money abroad at the present time to enable foreign nations to_pur- chase goods from the United States when this country has no intention of receiving anything in return. He said he would not object to foreign loans if this country's tariff was cut in half and the Natio: was willing to receive Guantities of goods from abroad. The speaker, discussing the farm strike in the West, asserted that it was his_observation that outside of the farmers’ holiday group. “there are very few farmers who are at present willing to submit to the compulsory control of | marketing by the Government. even though their es might be substan- tally increased. Secretary Wallace said the great question “is where we shall find the courage and the tenacity that will be| required to take, and to stick to. either the international path. the national path, or to a planned path botween the two, for long and perhaps trying i years of readjustment.” RIVAL FASCISTS BATTLE IN LONDON MEETING HALL Crairs Fly and Umbrellas Swing When Heckler Objects to Actions of Speaker.

We hear much these days of two adjectives (socia! and economic), gen- erally they are used to denote different things. Here at Warm Springs we have proved that in our work they go hand in hand. Let me give you an exampl If a child is so incapacitated, because of infantile paralysis or accident or some other cause, that the child is unable to get about, take care of him- self and go to schcol, the chances are that In most cases some grown-up per- son must spend a large part of the time in taking care of the child. Every social objective requires that the child be rehabilitated to lead a normal life— to become a useful member of society In accomplishing this we reach at the same time the econcmic objective. for we restore the child and at the same ‘ime we release a member of his family from th- constant suvervision end care of the child, and enable that person 0 to b2 an cconcmically useful unit in the community. 300,000 Crippled Children.

Toward the attainment of that goal the Georgia Warm Springs Foundation seeks to play a leading part. This work at Warm Springs is not local.

Unfortunately, he had flopped in a fit some place and his pockets had been picked. “The other guy would make a little speech on how pitiful 1t all was and would whip out a dollar bill, loudly announce that it was his last and give it to the epileptic to help him get to Rochester. The crowd’s sympathy would be aroused and they would shower down.
