A—8 ANGLO-U. 5. WORK FOR PEACE URGED Bingham Says in Interview Co-operation Would Prevent Conflict. By the Associated Press LONDON, December 1.—America and Britain working together could | safeguard the peace of the world, | United States Ambassador Robert W. Bingham says in an interview to be published tomorrow in the Observer. ‘The two nations, the Louisville, Ky., publisher asser! could provide the answer for any outstanding interna- tional situation that might arise. Ambassador Bingham, de- scribed by the newspaper as “an intimate friend of President Roose- velt who can speak with firm; assurance on the | present nature of | the American diplomatic out- look,” is quoted as saying: “If the British | Empire and the United States were agreed on the | solution of any problem in diplomac: that problem would no longer exist. for there is no combination of influ- ences that could challenge its de-| cisiveness.” The American envoy, saying Amere fca's house at home is being put in order, continued, the Observer Will e B Abroad he offers a new and re- liable basis for confident diplomac: If the British and the American peo- ple would only grasp firmly the pres- ent opportunity for lasting under- standing, the world would be relieved of its panics, we should all live in gecurity and every major diplomatic problem in the world would solve itself.” A “National President.” To his interviewer the Ambassador explained Roosevelt &s not merely “a Democratic President,” but “a na- tional President,” adding: “You may depend on it that he will never propose anything to Congress | which he is not certain in advance Congress will indorse “If your government reaches an understanding on any question with Roosevelt, it reaches a certain, bind- ing and lasting understanding with the American Nation.” Dance Study to Start.

The air was chilly, but the water was warm. Relief Program Scanned. ‘The President’s conference today with members of this group is known to have centered mostly about the reshaping of his national policy for recovery, with relief standing out above all other phases. + Relief Administrator Hopkins did not discuss any feature of the con- ference later with newspapermen, but he intimated that before he leaves he might talk about his ideas in a gen- eral way. Mr. Richberg, however, made it plain that he personally is opposed to direct relief. He said he favored work relief because a dole is expensive and unsatisfactory. Views Held Significant. The chief co-ordinator wanted it understood that he was expressing his own opinion. Richberg's highly confidential rela- tionship with the President, however, and the fact that he had just left a conference said about “work relief” strengthens speculation as to its part in the Presi- dent’s revised relief program. Early next week Secretary of In- terior Ickes, public works administra- tor, will come here for a long confer- ence with the President. Mr. Richberg discussed briefly his tentative proposals for the future of the N. R. A, some of the more essential factors, all of which he has included in speeches he made recently. He did say that it is necessary for some parts of the N. R. A. to be made a permanent part of the governmental structure. President Roosevelt tomorrow will motor to the home of Cason Callo- way, about 20 miles from here, where he will be a luncheon guest. Mr. Calloway is a textile magnate and operates mills in and near Lagrange, Ga., and has done considerable study- | ing of model factories and model towns. U. S.

He added the United States “is get- ting the worst of the deal” in the preliminary naval conversations in London, but asserted that it would be “impossible” to grant naval parity to the Japanese.

In the Virginia city, Dr. Johnson, a nation- ally known educator, learned that the numbers racket, which started in Washington, is rapidly spreading to other parts of the country—especially in the South. “To be honest and fair,” Dr. John- | son said, “I must admit that the numbers game is not the most vicious form of gambling known to our peo- ple. There are all sorts of gambling devices. Human nature being what it is, it is mighty difficult to break up gambling. the numbers game, run it, is this pernicious influence: The wooing of young minds to easy money. “Easy any good.

He claims that the education of youth is the all-important consid- eration of the day: that “as the sprig is bent, so grows the tree.” “II we are to raise a race of gamblers,” Dr. Johnson says, “let us be honest about it, and teach the ‘young idea’ that the best path to fol- low is that of least resistance. All philosophical thought teaches the con- trary to be true. That is why the | numbers game, with its promises of easy riches, preaches a false philosophy. That is why I am against it.” money never did anybody Commends Newspapers.

NEW YORK, December 1.—James M. Beck, former Solicitor General of the United States, recommended to- night revision of the Constitution to adapt Government machinery to modern conditions. Basic theories of the Constitution, he added, however, are as “deep, ac- curate and true as when it was adopted,” and if abandoned may threaten the existence of the union. Describing the two-year term of Representatives in Congress and the four-year term of Presidents as “malign influences,” Judge Beck pointed out that governmental machinery devised in an agricultural period of society was inadequate today. Judge Beck, who is chairman of the Committee on American Citizen- ship of the American Bar Associa- tion, spoke over a C. B. S. national network. Coercion Is Charged. He questioned whether a Represen- tative in Congress could think for his constituents “if some special class | which holds the balance of power in his district threatens him with defeat unless he accedes to their wishes, which are generally selfish and some- times unjust.” He did not advocate any specific term-length for Representatives, but commented, “The six-year term of the | Senator gives him & greater inde- pendence.” The eligibility of a President succeed himself, he declared, “has had through our whole history a malign influence upon the Executive. “Excepting only the first President, who neither sought nor desired to suc- ceed himself, every President has necessarily considered in all his deci- sions the possible effect upon his re- election.” | He urged appointment by the Presi- to dent of 200 outstanding Americans to | consider revision of mechanical details of the Constitution “when this eco- nomic storm is over and the American people again reason with their usual| sanity.” Says Principles Abandoned. Although the framers of the Con- stitution desired a maximum of: local self-government and a minimum of paternalistic central government, the Nation today, he declared, has tem- porarily abandoned their principles. “The American people today are seemingly accepting with satisfaction a highly centralized central govern- ment with plenary power to do what- ever the Congress. or the Executive may regard as for the general wel- fare.” he said. “We must not, in respect to the fundamental philosiphy of the Consti- tution, abandon the ship.” he con- tinued, “for if we do. it will not be the ' to the Government next Fri Constitution alone which will perish It will also be the Union which all Americans dearly love.” LEWIS ASSAILS REPORT ON DEBTS AND COUR Senator Expresses Surprise at Recommendations on Policy of Hutchins.

INAVY 15 VICTOR OVER ARMY, 30 Borries, Cutter and Dornin Star on Muddy Grid- iron. ___ (Continued From First Page.) made—three by Navy and two by Army. A game in which four of the five forward passes were intercepted, a game where open play had no chance at all in the greasy muck of the water-soaked gridiron. For just before the game a black cloud shut out the sun and a torrential downpour soaked both field and furs before the sun came out again The Navy won her first Army game since 1921 throuzh the combined bril- liancy of “Buzz" Borries, Bill Clark Slade Cutter and her two crack cnds, Bob Dornin and Bob Mandlekorn The rest of the Navy team was in there delivering a full ¢hunt, but these were the Navy leaders against a scrapping Army team that could i but little headway against a that had made up its mind to win “Spike” Webb Confident. “It's a tough field, 'Spike,’” I said to “Spike” Webb, the Navy trainer. just before action. *“Tough field or not, we are going to win this one.” “Spike” answered. And one of his boxing champions, a heavyweight vho has never lost a bout, carried out “Spike’s” cocky prophecy. YOUR OLD band | The first big thrill of the day clmei early in action, when Borries circled the Army end for 22 yards, a remark- | able dash when you consider the field he moved across. It was Borries, one | of the star backs of the year, who re- | turned & kick into Army territory. It was Borries who fed the shovel pass to Clark that threatened the Army goal. It was Borries who gained almost as much ground as all other backs on the field combined, a total of 81 yards, where yards came hard through me‘ treacherous muck, where pools of wa- | ter stood. It was Borries whose quick- ness and fleetness prevented ar Army touchdown when Miiler of the Army picked up a blocked kick with a free shot and an open trail to the Navy goal. | Borries, under the killing conditions had one of his big days. But he was not the only hero. There was the | kicking of Clark, the tackle play of quick thinking of Cutter and the ( Dornin. | Army Attack Repelled, When Cutter booted his place- kick. those three points began to gath- er growth. Late in the second period vy fumble and a dash by Simons ed the ball to the Navy's 26-yard The Army stand was a vast hullabaloo of noise. But Navy re- pelled an Army attack on fourth down with a foot to go. That was something. A big part of the day's action was crowded into the fourth period. Si- mons of the Army rushed to the | Navy's 24-yard line. Once again the| Cadets opened a terrific racket, call- ing for a touchdown. But Simons’ epted by the alert Bill z on the Navy's 15, and two plays er the same Biil Clark, standing on own 19-yard line, drove a mighty k that cleared the final Army de- fender and rolled 69 yards away to Army’s 12. 2 FURNITURE {in This great kick turned the tide of battle. Again Clark's toe was a big factor in this Navy victory. But the big thrill of the day followed three plays later. Clark’s kick was blocked and the ball spun along the ground toward the sidelines. Miller of the Army scooped it up and apparently there was no one barring the way to goal. A crashing outburst came from the Army stands. Borries Prevents Score, But from somewhere in the mass of a much mud-covered, fleet-focted figure cut across the fleid and with a diving tackle drove Miller into the mire on the Navy 46. And this tackle by Borries struck Miller with the rush of a wolf leaping at a stricken deer and this tackle blotted out the final Army chance The battle ended just after the Navy had recovered a fumbled kick on the Army's 12-yard line. With the finish, 2,000 young men in dark blue uniforms poured upon the field like |50 much surf blown by some gale. | The Navy had scored a deserved vic- tory. With Buckler injured early, the main cog in the Army attack for three years, was missing. Stancook and oth- ers gave all they had, but today the Army was up against a Navy team de- termined to wipe out the deficit of 13 years, looking back to a late Fall day 1921, when Navy had scored its last win over Army. On a faster, dryer ficld the Navy margin could have been higher, To- day open play had no chance. Ar it was through open play that Navy came to this last game with just one defeat by Pittsburgh. These Midshipmen have & team worthy of the best traditions of Navy foot ball, looking back 40 years. For this team beat Army and the ele- ! ments combined.
