THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C, MONDAY, NOVEMBER 11, 1935. . 115, TRADE TREATY WITH CANADA NEAR " Mackenzie King Hurriedly| Calls Cabinet After Con- ference With Roosevelt. By the Associated Press. OTTAWA, November 11.—Prime Minister Mackenzie King called his cabinet colleagues around the coun- cil table today for what was generally thought to be a discussion of the basic details of a proposed reciprocal trade treaty with the United States. Returning unexpectedly last night from Washington, where he went during a vacation trip, King said his conversations with President Roose- velt prompted him to break his holi- day and return to lay before his ministers the “substance of those conversations.” King intended to interrupt the cabinet council briefly so that he and his colleagues might take part in the Armistice day ceremonies on Parlia- ment Hill. King to Return to U. S. ‘Tomorrow or Wednesday he pro- posed to leave again to take the rest he had promised himself in the United States. He probably will not pass through Washington on the southern journey, but may call there again before his holiday is ended. Complete secrecy has been main- tained with regard to the details of negotiations which have been going forward in Washington for the past week between Canadian and United States trade experts. In view of the optimistic utterances of trade and state officials in Wash- ington, and the joint statement of President Roosevelt and King Satur- day, the prime minister’s decision to interrupt his holiday for a quick re- turn to Ottawa gave rise to a belief that negotiations have reached the stage where actual drafting of the treaty may be started. Trade Experts Also {o Return. Two of the Canadian trade experts who have been in Washington, H. B. McKinnon and L. D. Wilgress, re- turned with King. They will return to Washington tomorrow or Wednes- day. In addition to spending a night as guest of President Roosevelt in the White House. King had long discus- sions with Secretary of State Hull, sponsor of the United States' pro- | aram of trade treaties announced | more than a year ago and for which the President was given extraordinary | powers by Congress.

Branding as failure the efforts of this Nation and others to establish a condition of permanent peace, Comdr Murphy said: “Shortly after peace was restored this Nation renounced an opportunity to attain world supremacy in arma- ments and initiated a great disarma- ment movement in the interests of peace. We have given the nations treaties, renouncing war as a policy of government and providing for | pacific settlement of all disputes. Probably no year has passed in whica America has not made a sincere effort to bring all of the nations together around the peace table. “As we behold the condition of the world today, can we conscientiously assert that these efforts, however noble in purpose and sincere in mo- tive, have brought us closer to the cherished goal of permanent peace? I regret to admit in all candor that it seems not so.” | As objectives of the Legion, Murphy outlined the following: “We hold first that America should remain strictly neutral in all foreign wars, with which we have no direct concern; second, we declare that rea- sonable preparedness is essential to defend out own territory against ag- | gression, and third, we say America should take the profits out of war, if | war is forced upon us.” i Warning against the influence of ‘war propaganda which might change & public consciousness overnight, the | Legion head then cited some of the costs of war in money and lives and continued with a defense of his or-| ganization's efforts on behalf of the | veterans.

He expresssd pleasure at the reception accorded the | group by the President. | Full Day of Ceremonies. The Legion program and the tribute of President Roosevelt, however, were only part of a full day of ceremonies at Arlington and elsewhere. At 9:45 this morning the first honor was paid at the Tomb as the Ameri- can Legion Auxiliary of Alexandria placed a wreath. Others following soon included the Colored High School Cadets, Knights of Columbus, Jewish ‘War Veterans, Hellenic Society, Amer- ican Women's Legion, Society of the Puble Heart, Rainbow Division Society, ~Veterans’ Administration, Daughters of the American Revolu- tion, Disabled American Veterans and the American War Mothers. At 3 o'clock the Seven, a group of welfare organizations which served in the Army during its service in the war, was scheduled to pay its respects. Former Gov. John Garland Pollard of Virginia was principal speaker on this program. The organizations co-operating in this service were the American Li- brary Association, Jewish Welfare Board, National Catholic War Coun- cil, Salvation Army, War Camp Com- munity Service, Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. Boy Scouts aided in the ceremony Services at Cathedral. Two afternoon services also were scheduled at Bethlehem Chapel at Washington Cathedral. At 3:15 was scheduled the annual commemoration of President Woodrow Wilson at the tomb of the war time president. Right Rev. James E. Free- man, Bishop of Washington, made the principal address here. Mrs. Woodrow Wilson, many friends of the late President and officials of the Govern- ment and of veterans’ organizations were among those invited. At 4 pm. the Disabled American Veterans were sponsoring a service at the chapel in honor of the nurses and other women who served during the war, Tonight at the Willard Hotel, the local department of the V.

Numerous observances were held yesterday as special groups and many churches took that occasion to pay | their tributes. Among these were two services spon- sored by the local post of the Jewish War Veterans, first being a Nation- wide radio broadcast in the afternoon and the second a program at the Jewish Community Center in the eve- ning. As principal speakers, they heard Col. Alva I. Brasted, chief of chaplains of the United States Army; Rear Ad- miral Alfred W, Johnson, U. 8. N,, and Assistant Secretary of Commerge J. Monroe Johnson. Dr. Ivy A. Pel n, commander of the post, presided over the day’s programs. Appeals for “adequate national de- fense” were made by both Col. Brasted and Admiral Johnson. After paying tribute to the record of Jews in the armies of the world, Col. Brasted described this Nation: “A mighty factor in the preservation of world peace is a strong America. Her influence among the nations of the earth cannot be discredited. Let us keep America strong and make her still stronger by continuing our course as a people in the way of good will, justice and faith, and having a strong arm of force ready to serve quickly and effectively when faith and love TOO LATE TO CLASSIFY. | HELP—WOMEN.

The text of President Roosevelt's | Armistice day address in the Ampi- theater at Arlington National Ceme- tery today follows: The living memory of the World War is close to each of us today. Our thoughts return to great ob- jectives of the past, even as the minds of older men go back to their boyhood's ideals. We Americans were so placed that we gained a perspective of the great world conflict that was per- haps clearer than that of our fellow men who were closer to the scene of battle. For most of the first three years of the war we were not participants; but during the final phase we ourselves engaged on many fronts. For that reason perhaps we un- derstood, as well as any, the cries that went up—that the world con- flict should be made a war to end wars. We were not invaded nor were we threatened with invasion then or later; but the very distance of our view led us to perceive the dire results of war through days of following peace. Promotion of Peace Is Nation’s Purpose. The primary purpose of this Nation is to avoid being drayn into war. It seeks also in every practicable way to promote peace and to discourage war. Except for those few who have placed or who place temporary, selfish gain ahead of national or world peace, the overwhelming mass of American citizens are in hearty accord with these basic policies of our Govern- ment, as they are also entirely sympathetic with the efforts of other nations to end war. That is why we, too, have striven with great consistency to approve steps to remove the causes of war and to disapprove steps taken by others to commit acts of aggres- sion. We have either led or per- formed our full part in every im- portant attempt to limit and to reduce armaments. We have sought by definite act and solemn commit- ment to establish the United States as a good neighbor among nations. ‘We are acting to simplify definitions and facts by calling war “war” when armed invasion and a result- ing killing of human beings take Pplace. But though our course is con- sistent and clear, it is with dis- appointment and sorrow that we confess that the world's gain thus far has been small. I would not be frank with you if I did not tell you that the dangers that confront the future of mankind as a whole are greater to the world and therefore to us than the dangers which confront the people of the United States by and in themselves alone. Confidence in Contracts. Is on Decline. Jealousies between nations con- tine, armaments increase, national ambitions that disturb the world’s peace are thrust forward. Most serious of all, international con- fidence in the sacredness of inter- radio program, placed himself squarely on record in favor of renewal of the ‘Washington and London naval treaties as instruments that “have been factors of importance in stabilizing interna- tional relations during the'years that they have been in effect. We stand foursquare behind our President in advocating renewal of these treaties as they stand, with extension to other naval powers of the principles em- bodied in them. “Let us not deliberately weaken our position in relation to the nations of the world by unwise reductions in our naval strength. Let us conserve our strength and enjoy the comfort of se- curity which our strength gives to us.” ‘Two ceremonies were sponsored dur- ing the day by the National Federation of Men's Bible Classes, with the Vaughn Class of Calvary Baptist Church as host to delegates from the federation. First of these was at 9:30 am. at Calvary Church, while the second was at 3 p.m. at the Tomb of the Unknéwn Soldier, when a wreath was placed by officers of the feder- ation. Pastors of virtually all churches in the city wove their sermons around the subject of peace and war, arma- ments and defense, as they called upon their congregations to remember and respect those who had died for the Nation, Former Home Secretary Dies. LONDON, November 11 (#).—Former Home Secretary Edward Shortt died last night at the age of 76 after an influenza attack. As British film censor he severely critisized American films, denouncing what he called Hollywood's “gangster horror.” national contracts is on the wane. The memory of our hopes of 1917 and 1918 dies with the death of those of us who took part. It is, therefore, vour sacred obligation and mine, by conscious effort, to pass that memory on to succeed= ing generations. A new genera- tion, even in its cradle or still un- born, is coming to the fore. The children in our schools, the young men and women passing through our colleges into productive life have, unlike us. no direct knowl- edge of the meaning of war. They are not immune to the glamour of war. to the opportunities to escape from the drabness and worry of hard times at home in the glory and heroism of the arms factory and the battlefield. Fortunately, there is evidence on every hand that the youth of America, as a whole, are not trapped by that de- lusion. They, know that elation and prosperity which may come from a new war must lead—for those who survive it—to economic and social collapse more sweeping than any we have experienced in the past. While, therefore, we cannot and must not hide our con- cern for grave world dangers, and while, at the same time, we cannot build walls around ourselves and hide our heads in the sand, we must go forward with all our strength to stress and to strive for international peace. In this effort America must and will protect herself. Under no cire cumstances will this policy of self- protection go to lengths beyond self-protection. Aggression on the part of the United States is an impossibility in so far as the pres- ent administration of your Gov- ernment is concerned. Defense against aggression by others—ade- quate defense on land, on sea and in air—is our accepted policy, and the measure of that defense is and will be solely the amount necessary to safeguard us against the arma- ments of others. The more greatly they decrease their armaments. the more quickly and surely shall we decrease ours. Removal of Barriers Example to World. In many other fields, by word and deed, we are giving example to the world by removing or lowering barriers which impede friendly in- tercourse. Our soldier and sailor dead call to us across the years to make our lives effective in building constructively for peace. It is fit- ting that on this Armistice day I am privileged to tell you that be- tween us and a great neighbor, an- other act cementing our historic friendship has been agreed upon and is being consummated. Be- tween Canada and the United States exists a neighborliness, a genuine friendship which for over a century has dispelled every pass- ing rift. Our two peoples, each inde- pendent in themselves, are closely knit by ties of blood and a com- mon heritage; our standards of life are substantially the same, our commerce and our economic condi- tions rest upon the same founda- tions. Between two such peoples, if we would build constructively for peace and progress, the flow of in- tercourse should be mutually bene- ficial and not unduly hampered. Each has much to gain by material profit and by increased employment through the means of enlarged trade, one with the other. . I am, therefore, happy to be able to tell you on Armistice day that the Canadian prime minister and I, after thoughtful discussion of our national problems, have reached a definite agreement which will elim- inate disagreement and unreason- able restrictions and thus work to the advantage of both Canada and the United States. Good Example Is Strongest Force. ‘The power of good example is the strongest force in the world. It surpasses preachments, it excels good resolutions, it is better than agreements unfulfilled. If we as a Nation, by our good example, can contribute to the peaceful well-being of the fellow- ship of nations, our course through the years will not have been in vain. We who survive have profited by the good example of our fellow Americans who gave their lives in war. On these surrounding hills of Virginia they rest—thousands upon thousands—in the last biv- ouac of the dead. Below us, across the river, we see a great Capital of a great Nation. The past and the present unite in the prayer that America will ever seek the ways of peace, and by her example at home and abroad speed the return of good will among men. Chest (Continued From First Page.) bration of “Community Chest Sun- day.” Archbishop Michael J. Curley, in an encyclical letter to the clergy | and laity of Washington, which was | read in every Roman Catholic church | yesterday, urged his. people “to be whole-hearted in your support and generous in your contributions to this worthy cause.” Asks Whole-Hearted Support. The Archbishop's letter was as fol- lows: “To the clergy and laity of Wash- ington: “The Community Chest of Wash- ington will hold its annual campaign from November 11 to 20. Once again I appeal to you to be whole-hearted in your support and generous in your contributions to this worthy cause. I would ask those who can to par- ticipate in the actual work of the campaign® as a duty of Christian charity. “The difficult vears through which we have passed have left with us a great wreckage of suffering humanity. Families once independent and self- supporting are doomed for years to be the unwilling recipients of charity. The undernourished bodies of little children bear visible witness to the privations they have endured during the most crucial years of their physi- cal development. Our crowded chil- dren’s institutions, spme with a wait- ing list of applications, offer sad tes- timony of the tragic effect hard times have had on family life. For these unfortunate victims of the depression I appeal to you in the coming cam- paign. Must Look to Private Gifts. “During the past few years we have looked to the Government to carry the major portion of the burden of unemployment. Now with the re- striction of the public relief program, the poor have to look increasingly to private charity for help. If the spirit of Christ is alive within us we cannot fail them in their need. “Though many of us have suffered, yet with God's mercy we have come safely through the hours of darkness and are looking forward with growing confidence to better times. In grati- tude for our blessings we must bend down and lift up the less fortunate who have sunk weak and disspirited in the struggles. In these, I would beg you to see the image of our suffering Savior. Let it not be said that He was hungry and we gave Him not to eat; thirsty and we gave Him not to drink; naked and imprisoned and we ministered not unto Him. “In making your contributions and pledges I beg you to do so in the name of our Divine Master and with the generosity that marks Christ’s loyal followers.” Sermons in Churches. Protestant ministers of all denomi- nations referred to the Community Chest campaign in a city-wide series of sermons, while in more than 200 of the 400 adult Bible classes of the city special talks were made on the Com- munity Chest campaign. In addi- tion to these talks given yesterday rabbis of the city last week incor- porated statements regarding the Chest in their weekly sermons. A few of the excerpts from various sermons yesterday and last week are as follows: Rev. Joseph Hillman Hollister, min- ister, Chevy Chase Presbyterian Church: “When I give my money through others I want to know two things. First, ‘Will it go for real needs’ One look at the list of agencies under the Community Chest tells me that wherever my dollar goes through the Chest’s hands it goes to meet a real need, in many instances a tragic need. This is perfectly evi- dent. “The second thing I want to know is, ‘Do those who handle my money do it in the most efficient and eco- nomical way?’ As a member of the Executive Committee of the Com- munity Chest I can say I have never known a group of folk entrusted with others’ money to guard that money more carefully or spend it more mind- Indian Summer Nearly Over Don’t let winter weather catch you without a supply of Marlow’s Famous Reading Anthracite; that super- cleaned Pennsylvania hard coal which yields such steady, healthful, low-cost heat.

Inasmuch as no other type of organization has been suggested, adequate enough to meet the above re- quirements, we are proud to continue the Community Chest along the best approved lines, and we urge our people that their whole-hearted efforts unite | to make the Community Chest this| year an even greater financial suc- | céss that it has been in the past.| You need the Community Chest as a communal institution, even as the| poor require the Chest for the satis- faction of their material wants.” Gifts Must Be Increased.

The people | of Washington are favored in mgny} ways and they are liberal. This will| be another opportunity for those of us who have more of this world's goods to share with those less f tunate.
