C. a ‘Boom Town’ By the Assoclated Press. ¢ OKLAHOMA CITY, April 18— “The primary problems which face Us are at home,” Thomas E. Dewey, candidate for the Republican presi- dential nomination, said last night, adding they “can and must be solved.” “But there is still another ines- capable issue that confronts us,” the New York district attorney contin- uéd in an address prepared for a Republican rally. “We must make secure our peace in a war-torn world. ¢ ¢ * “We must have an administration in Washington which not only shares in this determination, but is competent to see it through. We must have an administration in which the country can place its full faith, * * o New Deal Called Faithless. “The record of the New Deal is a record of covenants abandoned, pledges blithely cast aside. “On the basis of that record, we as Americans must conclude that in the emergency of a world again at war the destiny of the Nation would be safer in other hands.” The presidential aspirant said his greatest amazement on recent trips over the country has been at the “unlimited perversity of the New Dealers. “They are still insisting that this country has run its course—that America is finished.” Calls D. C. “Boom Town.” Referring to Washington as a “boom town,” Dewey asserted: “The number of Government em- ployes has been increased from 570,000 to 940,000 during the last seven years. The administration has spent. millions of dollars to provide these employes with monumental offices. From those oMds the chief- tains of the New Deal conduct oper- atlons which throttle the country's business with one hand and with the other spend billions of dollars in an attempt to fill the economic vacuum which they themselves have created. “The time has come to make a swap. I propose that we give up New Deal spending for spending by our people. I propose that we give up the prosperity of a Washington bureaucracy for the prosperity of a nation.” Assails “War on Business.” He summarized results of what he | termed the “New Deal war on bust- ness” as driving “private investment into cyclone cellars until the New Deal twister has passed.” He recommended as specific measures to “bring a better bal- ance of our whole economy”: Crops loans at reasonable levels, a pro- gram of solls conservation “which is not a subterfuge for crop con- trol,” JGovernment-sponsored re- search to broaden the use of agri- cultural products and preservation of the American market for Ameri- cans, Mexico Said to Favor Commission in Oil Issue By the Associated Press. MEXICO CITY, April 18.—Mexico is preparing to reject the proposal of the United States for arbitration of the controversy over Mexico'’s expropriation of the foreign-owned oil industry, according to an adviser of President Cardenas. This source said Mexico will sug- gest that an international claims commission of American and Mex- ican experts seek settlement of the problem. United States Secretary of State Hull in a note April 3 suggested for- mally that the expropgiation issue and the resulting problems be sub- mitted to arbitration. He said he did not see how a claims commission could solve the problem unless its decisions were final and binding, and it was not indicated today whether the Mexican proposals would suggest this.

Rowe, director of the Pan American Union, and Dr. Pedro de Alba, assistant director, pave been made & commapder and an officer, respectively, in the Haitian Order of Pation and Bolivar, Elie Lescot, the Haitain Minister an- nounced yesterday.

' Lania Ave Nation Can't Depend Text of Hull Statement Secretary Calls for Maintenance of Status Quo on Netherlands Indies The text of Secretary Hull's statement with reference to the Netherlands Indies, fssued last night, follows: T have noted with interest the statement by the Japanese Minister for Foreign Affairs expressing con- cern on the part of the Japanese government for the maintenance of the status quo of the Netherlands Indies. Any change in the status of the Netherlands Indies would directly affect the interests of many coun- tries. Important in International Relations and Commerce. The Netherlands Indies are very important in the international rela- tlonships of the whole Pacific Ocean. The islands themselves extend for & distance of approximately 3,200 miles east and west astride of the Equator, from the Indian Ocean on the west far into the Pacific Ocean on the east. They are also an important factor in the commerce of the whole world. They produce considerable portions of the world’s supflies of important essential commodities, such as rubber, tin, quinine, copra, etc. Many countries, including the United States, depend subsbtantially upon them for some of these com- modities. Intervention in the domestic af- fairs of the Netherlands Indies or any alteration of their status quo would be prejudicial to the cause only in the region of the Nether- lands Indies, but in the entire Pa- cific area. Policy of Status Quo Agreed to by Several Powers. This conclusion, “based on a doc- trine which has universal applica- tion, and for which the United States unequivocally stands, is em- bodied in notes exchanged &n November 30, 1908, between the United States and Japan, in which that its policy was directed to the maintenance of the existing status PERFECTLY CORSETED, YET “CORSET-FREE" AcHIEVE the fashionable ScissorsSilhouette, look right—hipline smooth and waist in, yet be “corset-free” to move with easy, poised racefulness.

It is reaffirmed in the notes which the United States, the British Empire, France and Japan—s parties to the treaty signed at Wash- ington on December 13, 1921, relating to their insular possessions and their insular dominions in the region of the Pacific Ocean—sent to the Netherlands government on Febru- ary 4, 1922, in which each of those governments declared that “it is firmly resolved to respect the rights of the Netherlands in relation to their insular possessions in the region of the Pacific Ocean. Respect for Rights Among Peace Principles. All peaceful nations have during recent years been earnestly urging that policies of force be abandoned and that peace be maintained on the basis of fundamental principles, among which are respect by every nation for the rights of other nations and non-intervention in their do- mestic affairs, the according of equality, of fair and just treatment, and the faithful observance of treaty pledges, with modification thereof when needful, by orderly processes. 1s is the constant hope of the Gov- ernment of the United States—as it is no doubt that of all peacefully inclined governments—that the at- titudes and policies of all govern- ments will be based upon these for LATEST NEWS The Night Final Star, containing the latest news of the day during these dramatic times, is de- livered every evening throughout the city and suburbs between 6 P.M. and 7 P.M.
