In order to speed removal Americans from the Orient, the state department arranged today for the Manhattan and the Washington, two of tha nation's largest liners, to maka special trips to the Far East. The two vessels, formerly in the trans-Atlantic service, have a passenger capacity of be-tween 2.100 and 3.000 each. Secretary Hull sai'I they would sail si soon as possible.

In addition, I luTI said five other American pascentrer liners veri now- in the pacific, a number cf freighters were available for somi passengers, and that efforts were under way to arrange for other ships to transport Americans from various Japanese and Chinese ports. Officials said there v.eri about 10,000 Americana in the Orient. Shuttle rianned A suggestion has been made. It was said, that the emergency vessels first make a series of shuttle trips between Honolulu and Far Eastern ports, leaving their passengers to be brought from the Hawaiian city to the mainlanl later. Officials said no action ha 1 been taken on the proposal and it was indicated that the department did not look on the idea with favor.

Officials had no comment on reports that several points of friction between the United States and Russia had leen removed through permission for the Soviets to ship larg quantities of machine tool? purchased here and to charter several American tankers. Tools Held Up Shipment of machine needed in Russia's war industries, had: been held up under an act requiring licenses for export of strategy war materials. It as pointed out. that the shipments were permitted in August, after the s'art of discussion between Soviet Ambassador Constantino Cumansky and Undersecrctar--of State Welles, designed to smoot'l out Soviet-American relations.

12. A high authority tonight announced that the Greek army is mobilized and that this country like Turkey is ready to fight if anyone pulls the trigger by an invasion. A'astly concerned at the implications of Germany's march to Bucharest, in the heart of the Balkans, this authority said (reek forces were being strengthened on the Albanian frontier where Italian forces, already estimated to number to 1.10,000, are being gradually increased. i figures were given as to the strength of the Greek forces facing the Italians there, however. Labor groups are putting 2,000 miles of roads into shape for military transport, it was said, and owners of cars and trucks not already requisitioned have instructions to deliver their vehicles at designated points vith-in four hours notice of a general mobilization.

End for France Germany's ambitions and acts make it starkly plain to them that if and when Germany and Italy conquer Europe ihe France of yes-terday will become a mere dependency of the greater Reich, a colony of tillers and toilers maintained to supplement German economy ar.d power.

While waiting that final decision, with hope and fear, the French are also trying to find themselves, to organize a new and virile government from the chaos that followed the French army's catastrophic defeat, and to chart a course through the innumerable and dangerous currents and shoals inside and outside that segment of Europe still called France. The remnants of France, slashed by German invasion and occupation, is officially described as "The French State." Philippe Petain, M-year-oid marchal of France and hear! of the government installed Divide and Conquer Idea Will Not Work Here, President Says DAYTON, Ohio, Oct. 12. (P) resident Roosevelt enunciated a policy of total defense of the Americas against a total attack from any segment of the world tonight, and pledged the United States navy and air force to the defense of all the Western Hemisphere. The President's address, one of his most momentous declarations on international conditions and foreign policy, was broadcast to every nation of the hemisphere.

He said that this country, as in 170, insists on the peaceful use of the Atlantic and Pacific for trade ami commerce. He said the American nations were united in their determination to resist the threats of dictators and rejected the doctrine of appeasement. He renewed assurances that Britain would receive all aid short of war. Unity Sought He voiced confidence in the ability of the Americas, hound together in the spirit of pood neighbors, to resist any infiltration of "alien political and economic ideas which would destroy our freedom and "When we speak of defending this Western Hemisphere," Roosevelt declared, "we are speaking not only of the territory of North, Central and South America and the immediately adjacent islands. We include the right to the peaceful use of the Atlantic and Pacific oceans.

That has been our traditional policy. "We of the Americas still consider that this defense of the.se oceans of the Western Hemisphere against arts of aggression is the first factor in the defense anil protection of our own territorial integrity. -e reaffirm that policy lest there be any doubt of our intention to maintain it." Talks from Train The address was made from a dining car as his special rain stood in the Dayton station. It combined a stinging critique of the methods of what he termed lotaliarian and flicator nations with a firm declaration of the determination of the United Sta'es to prepare for war as the best insurance of continued peace. The chief executive said that "divide and conquer" had been the battle cry of the totalitarian powers in their war against democracy, that it had succeeded in Europe, but that "on our continent it ill fail." "The core of our defense is the faith we have in the institutions we defend." the President asserted.

"The Americans will not be scared or threatened into the ways the dictators want us to follow. No combination of dictator countries of Europe and Asia will halt us in the path we see ahead for ourselves and for democracy. to Third Tram riayed?

Body Is Found Two highway employes. John Adams of Oracle, and E. A. Armenta of Casa Grande, discovered the overturned vehicle. Martin Younkers, Heloit, and Anthonv Monts, Rockford, 111., who said Mix had passed them on the highway north of Tucson, helped pull the actor's body from under his racing model car.

Younkers and Monts said a heavy suit case had fallen against Mix's head, burying his face in the soft ground. A physician reported later the blow broke his neck. Local investigators said Mix, who left Tucson at 1 p. was serving as advance agent for a circus scheduled to 'show in Phoenix shortly. The cowbov star was carrying 6,000 in cash, $1,500 in travelers' checks and several valuable jewels.

Mix was a native of El Taso county, Texas. He worked as a cow boy in Texas. Arizona, Wyoming and Montana and won national riding and roping contests at Prescott, and Canon City, in 1909 and 1910. Cast as Hero During the years when he was identified with pictures, Mix always was cast as a hard-riding, gun-toting hero out to thwart unlawful acts in the days of the wild west. In recent ears, he has appeared in wild west circus shows and for a time operated his own circus, the Tom Mix Wild West Show.

Established, too, was an "advance command" of the Nazi air force under German aviation General Speidel.

A long column of field gray motorcars carried German soldiers with fixed bayonets through the streets, and squadrons of airplanes, some with the Nazi insignia, roared overhead. German flags flew, bands played Dentschland Uber Allies, the Horst Wessel song and the Rumanian national anthem. The implications of this triumphant entry this Incontestable German military penetration of Rumania were many. Turkey AVatched Foreign observers speculated at new German-Italian moves in southeastern Europe and recalled the declaration of pro-British Turkey that 2.000.000 bayonets would stand athwart any Axis attempt to move in Turkey's direction in the Near East. Amid the parades, the band music, the stir in the city, British subjects whose government's relations with Rumania stand at crisis quietly packed and hurriedly left.

German circles rejoiced privately that the Reich had now established an air patrol on ttie Rumanian oil fields so vital to Germany's war effort and declared as o'her Germans had done when the Nazis marched into Norway, into Denmark, into the Low Countries that the Reich had again taken the initiative away from the British.

And, although Marshal Petain has full power.

France is not yet- a dictators-hip in the sense of Germany or Italy.

that German troops had landed in Finland and that they were going to Norway. The common belief was then that the government of Helsinki had given them right of way across its own territory. But latest information sounds a different note. The German troops are still in Finland and. to all outward appearances are intended to remain there.

That military move of the German high command cannot, but be interpreted as a potential threat to Leningrad, the second metropolis of Soviet Russia, the cradle of Bolshevism. Threat Offered If. in the present circumstances, Russia keeps quiet and behaves to the satisfaction of the Nazi ruler, she will be allowed to share in the spoils. For instance, she will be authorized to appropriate an additional slice of Finland, to advance into Persia and even to recover from Turkey Kars and Ardahan should the Turks try. after all.

to stand in the way of Germany and should they succumb in the fight. On the contrary, if Russia did encourage Turkey to resist the German undertaking or, worse, did act in a hostile manner, swift punishment might be ready for her in the north. Last month, she bowed to the guarantee of frontier Germany granted to Rumania, which meant that had to give up her old claim to the control of the straits. Now, she must put up with much more: with the presence of German troops in Rumania and possibly with the sending of those troops in the direction of Istambul to intimidate the government of Ankara and compel it to toe the line. The threat to Leningrad is the complement of the threat to Istambul.

Plan Outlined The German plan, as it was fixed tip by Chancellor Hitler and agreed to by Premier Mussolini in their recent meeting near the Brenner pass, is now fairly obvious: to neutralize Turkey with the passive or active help of Russia so as to bring back into existence the strategical possibilities which were available to imperial Germany in 1916. In that year, a German-Turkish expedition set forth toward the Suez canal. In 1940, the purpose is the same. To turn the British position in Egypt, to render ineffective, in that way, the action of the British fleet in the eastern Mediterranean, to work up lie Arab world against since the forced alxlication of King Carol issued a communique thus explaining matters: "The former government asked Germany for her help regarding equipment and instruction of the Rumanian army in using the new-materials in accordance with the new methods of war.

f.41) President Clarence A. Dykstra of Wisconsin university accepted today the post of director of selective service and it was expected efforts would be made fo have the senate confirm his nomination speedily inasmuch as the draft registration is to be next Wednesday. The educator, who attracted national attention as city-manager of Cincinnati, agreed to head the nation's first peacetime conscription system after the university board of regents granted him a leave of absence. It was anticipated in military circles that Dykstra's nomination would go to the senate Monday. Unless opposition developed, informed sources said, there was no reason it could not be approved the same day.

As head "of the draft, Dykstra will receive $10,000 a year. At selective service headquarters, officials said everything was in i) arterhac! Turner re- possible military training.

"We ask them to visit transient camps and other stopping places of migrants to make sure that the wanderers know about the registration requirement." Capt.

7P) A heavy new bombing attack upon the German-held French coast was opened tonight by British warplanes in the light of a bright fall moon. Heavy explosions could be heard from the region of Boulogne across 22 miles of channel water, and German ground guns rut the sky with a flaming barrage. It was one more in a string of assaults upon the Nazi invasion ports attacks pushed home last night through a thick fog and rain squalls which, said the British, "hid both land and sea." Oil plants, factories and docks were blasted last night at the naval stations and ports of Kiel, Hamburg, Bremerhaven, Wilhelms-haven and AVestermuende, near Bremen, the British said. At the same time bombs were loosed on shipping and quays at I)e Kooi, The Netherlands, near Den Helder naval base, a string of airports on Texel.

Antwerp, Ostend, Calais, Boulogne and Le Treport were invasion bases singled out for attacks. "An enormous white explosion" flared and flames shot up following the release of extra heavy lxmbs on the dock area at AVi'l-helmshaven when pilots found a patch of clear weather over that naval base, they reported. Other explosions and fires developed from the raids on the Kiel docks and the Deutsche petroleum works at Hamburg, fliers said. One pilot swooped to 5,000 feet at Den Helder and left a chain of fires among shippings and sheds at the quays, and bomber observers said other explosives hit the jetty. Large explosions and fires in the inner harbor at Boulogne and the outer harbor at Ostend were among results mentioned- zona 47.
