RADICALS SCORED National Defense Gathering Hears McSwain Urge Larger Air Force. Denunciation of communistic prop- | aganda in American schools, praise for the free speech and free thought of this country and pleas for an ade- quate air force marked an enthusi- astic_meeting yesterday afternoon of the D. A. R. Committee on National Defense through patriotic education. Under chairmanship of Mrs. Wil- liam A. Becker of this committee, Who is one of the two rival candidates for president general of the society, six speakers addressed a gathering which overflowed the banquet hall of Memo- rial Continental Hall. Many stood throughout the meeting and the cor- ridors were frequently crowded by daughters attempting to hear. | Chairman John J. McSwain of the | House Military Affairs Committee said | that in the interests of national de- fense, every American boy should learn to fly. Says 15,000 Pilots Needed. He urged that this country be in- stantly ready with an air force “the | best in the world.” _He pointed out that the Army Air Corps now had only 1,300 pilots, and that it should | have at least 5000 trained pilots, | with a reserve corps of at least 10,000. | To this end he said it was encouraging for flying at their own expense, and {he hoped that within the next few — | years there would be at least 200,000 G.

Tatiana Tchernavin, Russian refugee, congratulated the daughters on the freedom of speech and of thought in this country, as compered to Soviet Russia. She told the story of how she and her husband, po- litical prisoners of the Communists, made their thrilling escape. ‘Three college students made vigor- ous attacks on Communistic propa- ganda in schools of the country. Joseph T. Elvove of the University of Maryland predicted that the Gov- ernor of Maryland would veto the State bill for an oath of allegiance in colleges. He explained, however, that if the Governor does veto the bill it would be because it would prevent many distinguished foreign scholars from addressing the student bodies. Elvove attacked the National Student League, which he said should be com- batted by & new national organization. The way to expose a Communist, he sald, is to “shed truth on him like shooting insecticide on a cockroach.” | J. Kenneth Bennett of Columbia | University created a stir when he | said “Communist agitators would | have students believe that JD. A. R. members are a bunch of flagwaving cracked skulls—merely for the preser- cleaning for vation of a capitalistic society. We | need help in colleges to help combat | | such Communistic propaganda.” | This remark prompted Mrs. John Trigg Moss of Missouri to say: “I! would rather attend this session of | the D. A. R. than any other. We don't care if they do call us a| | bunch of cracked skulls, nuts, mili- | | tarists, or what not—anything they | | please, so long as we can give to the | | world ‘minute men’ of today, with | backbone and stamina like you young | men.” ! Bennett also charged that Colum- bia student publications, including the | Spectator, were controlled by the | radical element at Columbia Univer- sity. “Put Your Car in Safe Hands” Our 45th Anniversary is house cleaning! ive your car a better | ] performance and appearance, ; AUTO TROUBLE!?
