* MARTIAL DISPLAY MARKS PEACE DAY Europe Hears Duce Say Army |s Ready to De- fend Interests. By the Associated Press. With martial display the nations of Europe today celebrated the seven- teenth anniversary of the end of the war to end war. While Fascist legions pushed deep into Ethiopia, cutting at the country’s “life-line” railroad, Premier Mussolini told the Italian people their armies were ready “to defend Italy’s inter- ests in Europe, Africa or anywhere.” Properly it was a celebration of King Victor Emmanuel’s 66th birth- day anniversary. The nation celebrat- ed its own armistice November 4, an- niversary of the peace with Austria. The Italian consul at Alexandria took part with representatives of other foreign powers in a celebration to Egyptian war dead at the British Me- morial Cemetery. British Guard of Honor. Detachments from the British fleet, strongly concentrated ranean waters because of the Italo- Ethiopian war, formed a guard of honor. In London the booming of a gun from the Horse Guards' parade stilled traffic for a two-minute silence which spread over the far-flung empire. Members of the royal family partici- pated in the ceremonies at the ceno- taph of Britain's unknown soldier. The “Death's Head"” legions of the Nationalistic Croix de Feu demon- strated in strength at the Paris com- memoration.

Two-Minute Silence. ‘The poppies of the American Legion were prominent in the service at the tomb of Belgium's unknown soldier, where the nation's observance cen- tered. The two-minute armistice silence at Dublin was broken with shouts of “Up, Irish Republi Groups of yound men cheered the Irish republic and a British flag was sprinkled with gasoline and carried, burning, through the streets. —_— ARMISTICE BRINGS BITTER MEMORIES Families of 35 Men Are Remind- ed of Military Executions During World War. By the Associated Press. To the families of 35 men who served in the United States Army during the World War Armistice day brings bitter memories. These men died, not in the heat of battle. but by military execution. Twenty-five were executed in this country and 10 in France. Murder, murderous mutiny and criminal as- sault were their crimes. War Department officials recalled today that the death sentence was pronounced upon 145 American sol- diers during the war. A 1919 report | showed. however, that the sentences were carried out in only 35 cases and | that none involved a purely military | offense. i Only one man in an Army popula- tion that once exceeded 3,500.000 was | sentenced to death as a spy. That sentence later was set aside due to gross errors in the trial record and to & ‘“reasonable presumption” that the man was insane. A board set up after the armistice reviewed more than 1.000 cases and granted clemency in many. FATHER WALSH ASKS MORAL DISARMING Yeague's Next Task Is Allocation of Raw Materials, Says G. U. Vice President. By the Associated Press. DETROIT, November 11.—The Rev. Edmund A. Walsh, §. J., of Wash- ington, told a pre-Armistice day con- ference of the Catholic Association for International Peace that the League of Nations would prove powerless to prevent war without “moral” dis-| armament. . “You might as well try to qusrry‘ granite with a razor's edge or mani- | cure a tiger's claw with attar of roses as to attempt to bind the spurg- ing passions of men without moral control,” declared the speaker, who 18 vice president of Georgetown Uni- versity. Father Walsh predicted that the League's next task would be alloca- tion of raw materials on a basis of Justice, which he said demanded the “exercise of “genuine statesmanship,” rather than of the bayonet and “the | law of the jungle.” | He denounced some Europeans Iori their “unchristian idolatry of the| state,” which he termed an ‘“exag- | gerated selfishness leading to economic | imperialism.” Drops Dead at Church Service.

THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C., MONDAY, NOVEMBER 11, 1935 D.C.BANKSLAUNCH ADVERTISING DRIVE Customers to Become Bet- ter Acquainted With Vari- ous Services Offered. BY EDWARD C. STONE. Following recent action by the Dis- trict Bankers' Association, the Wash- ington banks today launched an ad- vertising campaign to make their cus- tomers better acquainted with the services offered and with banking op- erations in general. Every bank in the city today was presenting book- lets to customers which picture the business of banking in a most inter- esting and understandable light. It is hoped that every depositor will take one, the booklets being free. Right now the banks everywhere are stressing public relations. Bankers declare a new deal is needed. They tell their customers their business is making loans. But if loans have to be refused they want the patrons to understand the reasons why. Prac- tically every angle of banking will be covered during the campaign. For the District Bankers' Associa- tion the data was first prepared by the Advertising Committee, of which Robert L. Flather of the American Security & Trust Co., is chairman this vear, and Eliot H. Thomson of the Washington Loan & Trust Co., was chairman last year, when the plans were first discussed. Final launching of the information | rged by a special com- | campaign was mittee under the chairmanship of Hilleary G. Hoskinson of the Riggs National Bank and an officer in the association. The booklets are most at- tractive and crowded with banking facts. ‘Wales Joins Investment Group. Kenneth S. Wales of K. S.

Each American everywhere is given an op- portunity to participate in Red Cross work—local and national—through “It is of the utmost importance that we maintain the Red Cross as our great national relief agency.

Electric Device To Shun Wheels of Traffic By the Associated Press. WARRENTON, Va., November 11.— His inventive bent stirred by the nar- row escape of his collie puppy under the wheels of an automobile, Ran- dolph H. Carter, electrical engineer, has devised a training system which makes dogs very “gun shy” of cars and saves them from possible injury or death in this manner. He recently secured a patent on the system, which he has developed into something of a sideline busi- ness to his regular work with the National Park Service at Quantico. Hhe made a “crude” electrical bat- tery or unit which he carries in one pocket. From this he ran a wire, sometimes inclosed in a leather leash, to the dog harness, in which he diate weeks ahead.” Trains Dogs When an automobile passed the young engineer gave the dog electrical shock, ‘harmless, but strong enough to sting. The puppy, said Carter, as- sociated the sight of a car and the shock after a half hour of training | 68! by his master. He hates them worse than cats now and would not think of chasing an automobile, or even coming near one in motion. He has used the same plan to train about a dozen other dogs, and has an as- sistant, Roy Boyle, of Clearfiéld, Pa., to help him. Carter, whose home is here, grad- uated from Virginia Polytechnic In- stitute in 1929. He was employed for a time as an aeronautical en- gineer, but now is with the Park Serv- ice. He is a nephew of Robert Ran- dolph Hicks, attorney, of New York fitted contact points. - City. ‘Washington. President Orrin G.

Cut Lending. An appeal to the Federal adminis- tration to commence curtailment of its money-lending activities was made by James C. Bolton, vice president, Rapides Bank & Trust Co., Alexan- dria, La., in an address before the State bank division of the Amerlcan Bankers' Association at New Orleans today. Mr. Bolton asserted, according to | dispatches, that the banks are con- | | tinuing to be faced with Goverrment | competition through the postal sav-! ings system for deposits, but declared | “competition for loans is more serious at the moment than competition fer | deposits, although the banks must | have both to prosper. In this field we are seriously handicapped by the | competition of many governmental ! agencies, most of which were organized | as emergency measures.” He pointed out that excess reserves | are at the largest point in history | and declared: “With confidence fully restored in the sound bariking systemr which the country has today and | bankers willing to consider lending on | | a normal basis, the emergency has pared to 2.640.823 tons in October,| 3¢ passed and it is time to start curtail- ing these extra governmental activi- ties.” The meeting also was addressed by J.
