He further advised that any candidate who threatened the loss of a worker’s job, or promis: ed him a better one was violat- ing the law. “You are under no obligations to support any candidate for of-! | fice, and it is your right as an} American citizen to vote for whom you please”, he said. “You do not owe your WPA job to poli- ties;@md you need not fear of los- ing it through politics.

WELLES TO REPORT ON PEACE CHANCES (Continued from Page One) with Germany until after at least one military victory is recorded. ROOSEVELT HAS SEVERE COLD WASHINGTON, Mar 16. — |President Roosevelt was con- fined to his bed this morning with a slight fever suffered in connection with a cold contracted during the week. He announced, however, that he hoped to join in the Inter- national Peace Broadcast with officials of many foreign, neu- tral countries, this afternoon. Roosevelt also hoped that he could attend the annual Press Banquet to be given in this city tonight. Reports reaching the capital that Ambassador to England John Kennedy had become em- broiled in serious arguments with the British were discredited here. German press reports on the matter were branded as “stories to arouse bitterness be- tween England and the United States” by government officials. and were delighted at the many interesting things seen, es- pecially the beautiful display of fish.
