Kerensky Blames Treaty for Hitler Versailles 'Fiasco' Held Responsible For Present War TAMIMENT, June 24 (JP). Alexander Kerensky, former Men-shevik premier of Russia, says "Hitler would have remained an unknown adventurer if the first world war had not ended with the Versailles fiasco, which really continued the war." And, Kerensky told the tenth annual conference of the Tamiment Social and Economic Institute, "no political or psychological grounds now exist for the realization of any plan for an ideal free world." Maintaining that all that can be hoped for after the war is for "the big three" to police the world, the former premier said: "Washington, London and Moscow are united in the concrete aims of war but they are profoundly disunited in their political ideals. They cannot build any definitive international system because while it is possible to build it on either democratic or totalitarian principles it is impossible to make any compromise between the two quite incompatible ways of life.

Crosson, manager of the Veterans Administration of Philadelphia, told the convention this morning that he could see no obstacle to Delaware getting a veterans' hospital and a regional office combined, provided Delaware does not get into a squabble about where this hospital is to be located.

He added, "I hope the incoming administration will appoint a committee to go before the Federal Hospital Board and present plans of what has been agreed upon." He cited as an example of how Pennsylvania has been blocked because of just such dissension about location. Delaware's veteran hospital has already been recommended by Frank T. Hines, chairman of the Federal Hospital Board, and "they always follow his recommendations." he said. Lee R. Pennington, inspector of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and department commander of Justice Post, said the American Legion has rendered the FBI great assistance in checking up on bunds all over the country.

Regarding Axis inspired sabotage, he said, "Since this war started we have checked up on 15,720 Axis agents, suspects and found no Axis inspired sabotage in this country. In all these cases investigated by us not one emanated from Axis sources." In many instances he said, these cases resulted from youngsters of the "Dead End Kids" type and the "Junior Canmando" group. Department Adjutant Inkerman Bailey, reporting for the chairman of the World War orphans' educational committee, asked that or- i IJi "UIIU Will ii UC CillUIC i The entertainment committee re ported that 300 young veterans of this war are at the government hospital at Perry Point, 25 of whom are women, and more funds will be needed this year for entertainment.

Roane Waring, of Memphis, immediate past national commander of the American Legion, aid at a banquet of the Delaware Department and auxiliary members of the Legion in the Hotel Henlopen last night.

The banquet opened the state convention which continues today. Colonel Waring declared universal military service should be required in this country after the war. He commended the Department of Delaware on its "courageous fight" in opposing the Federal Union resolution, and said, "We realize that America can no longer remain isolated from the world, and must do its share, but do it as a solvent and independent nation, looking after our own affairs." "We can't weld the United States its internal organization with any otner organization, ne continued. "We have no right to surrender in any way the sovereignty of the American people in any kind of a world super-government." Now under the stress of war, persons are inclined to forget the fundamentals of Americanism, Colonel Waring declared. "There are too many idealistic ideas popping up all over the country, preachers of un-American ideals, seeking to destroy the nation.

These efforts have been going on for years, and the American Legion has always stood forefront in fighting that kind of teach- First Independent Church Hth DuPont Streets HAROLD S. LATKD, Minister A. "The Most Important Thine" 12:10 P. M. Bible Echeel P.
