Howard Klove of Troop 14 was chosen mayor, defeating his independent party rival, John Mlnges of Troop 3. Other progressive winners: Clarence Stone of Troop 21, city clerk: Francis Budeller of Troop 4. city treasurer; Harry McCarty of Troop 15, police magistrate. Aldermen were elected as follows: First ward Bob Baker of Troop 13 and Harold Elliott of Troop 20. Such consultation, however, the note said, should be completed by ble II the administration, In calling 5 conference of little business men.

Out of the thirteen resolutions, fully thirteen were substantially Identical with resolutions previously adopted by big business, or positions taken by big business, from the point of view of the administration, the conference was a boomerang in the sense that about fourteen of the thirteen resolutions were complaints against government, requests that legislation enacted or promoted by the New Deal, and practices followed by the New Deal, be terminated. One Novel Resolution. Only one of the resolutions was novel or unorthodox, the one that read: "Provide an inexpensive method of securing loans for the purchase of inventory, machinery and equipment and for the construction of buildings through an agency designated or created by congress." Those words describe a way of getting capital by persons who want to start in business, or to extend their business. The suggestion is that congress, government, should provide the initial capital for business.

This suggestion is novel only in the sense that it is made on behalf of business. There is already a mechanism by which persons who want to become farmers but lack the means can get from the government money to buy a farm and equipment. Altogether, the resolutions which came out of the conference of little business men contained a high percentage of sanity and common sense. And the eleven men who marched in behind Secretary Roper to 6ee President Roosevelt looked as substantial as any eleven members of congress or leading citizens anywhere. It is true that the 800 or 1000 who composed the conference as a whole contained a considerable number of persons whose power of voice and insistence upon being heard exceeded their equipment for sound thought.

But whatever was the method by which the cream of stability was skimmed from the conference as a whole, it produced a good result.

Von Bauchltsch, made colonel general, has been commander of the motorized divisions of the army. As part of the general shakeup, Hermann Wilhelm Goering, nazidom's No. 2 man, announced reorganization of the ministry of economicsone more, step toward nazi-fication of the national economy, one directed by the brilliant but conservative Dr. Hjalmar Schacht. Among the casualties in the army were said to be some of the "eighteen Christian generals" who with Von Fritsch tried to slow nazlfica-tion of the army, and criticized what they called a pagan trend away from the basic and Christian virtues of good soldiering.

The diplomatic changes included the recall of Ambassadors Ulrich Von Hassel from Rome, Herbert Von Dlrksen from Tokio, 'and Franz Von Papen from Vienna. Goering, who as well as economics chief is prime minister of Prussia and air minister, was raised to the rank of field marshal general, and with Von Blomberg's elimination he Is the only such officer in active service. Italy Hails Move. Rome. Feb.

5. (JP) Premier Benito Mussolini today acclaimed Reichsfuehrer Adolf Hitler's control of Germany's war machine as "destined to reinforce the friendship between our two armed forces and the relations between our regimes." 11 duce sent Hitler a telegram, of congratulation, expressing "my satisfaction that the Italian people are for your excellency's assumption of effective command of all armed forces of the relch." Germany's government shake-up, especially Hitler's assumption of army control, found wide official favor in Italy. Although the sweeping changes in Germany's diplomatic corps removed Ulrich Von Hassell. ambassador to Rome, Italian officials said they regarded that as purely an internal matter without bearing on the Rome-Berlin axis. The official foreign office organ, Informazione Diplomatica, also disclosed that Italy had agreed to instruct her anti-piracy naval patrol to sink all submarines cruising in the Mediterranean below the surface and outside territorial waters.

The announcement said Rome had been requested by the British government to take this action under the Nyon accord to stop a new outbreak of attacks on neutral shipping.

"Let us in America not make the mistake of thinking we can escape all contacts with what is happening in the rest of the world," the 1936 republican presidential nominee said in a prepared address to Methodist clergymen and laymen attending a national conference on faith and service. He continued: "The absolute government that has taken hold of a number of nations would take away freedom of worship, freedom of expression and even free will. Where this absolute government would not actually destroy the church, it would undermine the very foundation of religion. "Thus Christianity has a great stake in the preservation of democracy.

Only toy a vigorous and prophetic church may we retain democracy." More than 4000 churchmen attended the council sessions preliminary to the forthcoming merger of Methodism's three branches, the Methodist Episcopal church (north), the Methodist Protestant church and the Methodist Episcopal church, South. Landon spoke as a Kansas delegate. He approved the contemplated consolidation and said it should be carried still further. "I am convinced," he said, "that within the Methodist Episcopal church there are too many churches, too close together. As everyone knows, an efficient and- active church can be made more attractive and therefore of greater service, than two that are just struggling along." the London naval treaty nor has it hitherto felt able to give any assurances that treaty limits would In pastor or tne First Christian church, will officiate, and burial will be in Riverside cemetery.

It also was notice to Japan that the United States intends to avail herself of the so-called "escalator clause" in the London naval treaty. This is article 25, which states that if any power not a party to the treaty builds or buys a ship larger than the prescribed limits, the parties to the treaty may do so likewise, after they shall have consulted among themselves with a view to reducing to a minimum the extent of the departures which may be made."
