REDS AND NAZIS + THREATEN PEACE Enmity Blights Development of England’s New Policy of Isolation. By the Associated Press. The mortal enmity between Com- munism and Nazi-ism is maturing rap- 1dly in the fertile’ soll of Eastern Europe, threatening to blight the de- velopment of England’s new policy of isolation from Eastern European af- fairs. Russia and Germany, both governed by what appears as radical parties in American eyes, yet each of which looks upon the other as antithesis, have begun again their old habit of viewing with alarm. Whether there is any real reason for this alarm is a matter for future history to tell, but there certainly is enough dynamite’ in the situation to alarm Great Britain, for Great Britain of late has shown a distinct desire to steer clear of Eastern European entanglements. Downing Street Takes Hand. The present embroglio, however, is #0 intimately joined with Great Brit- ain’s foreign policy that Downing Street already has taken a hand di- rectly in the matter, apparently de- parting at once from the isolation idea, with, possibly, the hope of being able to return to it once more. The British Ambassadors to Berlin and | Moscow have been ordered to take immediate steps toward clearing up ! the present antagonistic attitude of | Russia and Germany toward each other. The tense situation developed di- rectly as a result of the Franco-Brit- ish agreement to recognize Germany's rearmament in the air by designing an aviation securities pact to be en- tered into by France, Great Britain and Germany, and Belgium and Italy as well. Hitler Refuses With Thanks. Reichsfuehrer Hitler replied, with due deference to the diplomatic nice- ties, that he was much obliged to France and England for their kind suggestion, but that he couldn’t accept too stringent limitations on Ger- many's defense air force as long as an inimical Russia frowned on Ger- many from the east. He added, ! ow- ever, that he was willing to talk about the Anglo-French suggestions, intimating that some compromise ac- ceptable to all could be reached. In his reply, he referred solely to the aviation of the Anglo-French pro- posals. These, however, had also in- cluded a proposal that Germany ad- here to the Eastern European securi- ties pact advocated and engineered by France and Russia, which would bind its signatories from agression against each other. This latter proposal Hit- ler completely ignored. Litvinoff Is Outspoken. Maxim Litvinoff, Soviet commissar for foreign affairs, disregarded old- fashioned diplomatic niceties when he referred to Hitler's reply, however. He spoke right out, announcing in a broadcast to the press of the world that Herr Hitler would have to take the Franco-British proposals as a whole or not at all Neither the Wilhelmstrasse nor Downing Street reacted to Litvinofl's broadside with any show of pleasure and Sir John Simon, the British for- eign secretary, immediately instruct- s ed the British Ambassador in Moscow to confer with Litvinoff in an attempt to bring about an understanding with | Germany. DIONNES’ CHARGES DENIED BY GUARDIA Red Cross Official Says Parents Were Not Rebuffed on Visit to Babies, By the Assoclated Press. GRAVEHURST, Ontario. February | 23.—W. H. Alderson, Red Cross execu- tive and chief guardian of the Dionne quintuplets, denied today their parents had been treated brusquely when they visited the bables at their private hospital. This claim was made by the parents, | who have retained an attorney i an | attempt to obtain full parental con- trol over the babies and obtain a part of the tidy fortune they are accumu- lating to support the family, which includes five older brothers and sisters. Alderson said he thought it would be unwise to take the Dionne | quintuplets from the government- appointed guardianship before its ex- piration July 26, 1936. If possible it should be continued after that date, he said. . “I don't say that our guardianship {s due for any special credit,” he con- tinued, “but the babies would never have had such minute care without some kind of guardianship. I think if we leave this matter with the gov- ernment they will see the babies are not exploited. I do not think the quintuplets will be exhibited in any way this Summer.” Premier Mitchell F. Hepburn of Ontario in Toronto today indicated op- position to any proposal that the jparents receive a share of the money. —_— MEXICAN AUTHORITIES FREE AMERICAN FLYER Dale Myers of Arizona Arrested Last Week—Consul Hears No Drugs Seized. By the Associated Press. The State Department was in- formed yesterday that Mexican mili- tary authorities at Hermosillo had released Dale Myers, an American aviator arrested at Guaymas last week.

LAW GROUP HOUSING HELD PROBLEM OF U. S. By the Associated Press, CINCINNATI, Pebruary 23.—Assert- ing private industry is not interested in building decent homes for the low- | est economic group, Harry L. Hopkins, | Federal relief administrator, said to- | day it was necessary for the Govern- | ment to step in. Only if the Government builds homes for those with moderate in- | comes, he contended, will it “come in competition with private industry.” “But if the Government builds homes for families at the bottom of the economic ladder, and who now live in the slums, then the Govern- ment will not be competing with pri- vate capital “Private industry is not interested In building decent homes for the low- | est economic group, and I don't blame | private industry for that.

CARTER, Okla., February 23— | Jack Campbell, 14-year-old minister’s son who had been threatened with exposure to his father for displaying obscene pictures, was arrested today after the father, Rev.

County Attorney Ralph T. Hood said he expected to file charges against the boy. Press Rogers, city marshal, said he reprimanded Jack earlier in the day for showing pictures to friends on the streets and warned him he planned to inform Mr. Campbell.
