Continued from page 1
afe many other acts of charity and
mercy that we could do 11 we had
hhe dough There Is still much suf-
fering In our own country that we
havent cured and cant cure for
lack of funds There are many
similar good works abroad If we
Jiave a duty to rebuild Finland we
have a like duty lo rebuild shattered
Poland and shattered China That
would cost more but these bleeding
hearts seem to think the deed so
worthy that we should not count
cost
The great generosity of some of
them has already strained our debt
and taxing power to a limit that has
paralyzed the return of prosperity
and weakened our defense Yet
that seems not to check the urge
to And other occasions and obliga-
tions to pour out more of our de-
fining wealth
That suggests a great solution
Let those whose generosity so burns
their bleeding hearts raise the nec-
essary millions by voluntary con-
tributions from those of like minds
SMEAR HOOVER CAMPAIGN
Attorney General Jackson Is
standing loyally by his associate
Chief G Man Hoover He issued an
order the efTect of which Is to pre-
vent wire tapping In criminal cases
by any federal bureau
In doing so he made it clear that
Mr Hoocr opposed and forbade
wiretapping in FBI until ordered
by a former attorney general to use
that method In extreme cases
Yet in view of the towrow kicked
up by Senator Norrls indictment of
FBI and the proposed senate reso-
lution for an investigation of wire-
tapping this order may look like a
retirement under fire in the very
obvious smear Hoover campaign
that is going on
Neither in Senator Norrls letter
nor in the senate resolution was
tltere any Intimation whatever or
any complaint by anybody of any
FBI Invasion of civil rights
Mr Hoover hat continuously pro-
tested and prevented wifetapping
It Is well known throughout FBI
that ft Is worth any agents job to
tap a wire in any case not specif-
ically authorized by the chief him-
self and that has never been done
except where a human life was at
stake or at the climax of the clean-
up of some DiUIngcrlIke bandit or
racketeering gang
That doesnt mean that plenty of
wires have not been tapped by other
departments of federal government

The Once Over
Contirued from psee 1
Roosevelt Ill think so too
He suggested that we carry on our
discussions in Russian I said X
did not understand Russian He
said Neither do I but a peace
conference Is a conference One
word from me led to another In
fact It led to a dozen others Hitler
said Germany was always for peace
and that If her artillery held out
she would get It
He kept fumbling with a micro-
phone during the entire talk and
once remarked If television was
here I could conquer the world In
six weeks
MON Arrived in Paris Daladtcr
said France was not only for peace
now but had been hoping for it for
centuries
iutS In London Saw Cham
berlain Ho suggested that we hold
discussions In English I said this
might commit us to a clear under-
standing of what we were saying
He saw the danger of this at once
I am to see him again tomorrow
I cant escape the conclusion that
everybody In Europe is in favor of
peace up to the point where peace
is proposed
