He expressed thanks to Willkie for agreeing with Mr. Roosevelt on such topics as selective service and material aid to Britain, but "deplored" the nominee's action in tossing "a sop to the bitter antl-Roosevelt isolationists" by accusing the president of inciting the country to war and misleading other nations.

"By what grasshopper leap of the imagination does this candidate, conclude that this president has not taken the country into his confidence on foreign policy?" Ickes demanded. "Have the dangers against which President Roosevelt repeatedly warned failed to materialize? Is the Hitler attack on England a manufactured panic? "Does not Mr. Willkie remember it came amid indications Germany is readying her armed might for the blow which the nazis hope will knock out England and end the war. There were Indications the huge assault might come this week. Just as he had warned during the invasion of the low-lands and France, Adolf Hitler informed Great Britain through Swiss diplomatic channels that the British must treat bis parachute troops according to international law or he would visit reprisals upon British aviators in German prison camps.

(Parachute troops played an important role in the western European fighting and Britain has organized thousands of civilians in home defense corps to meet that threat.) Another intimation that a great attempt against England is in the wind was this expression by authoritative spokesmen: "Just give us three days cf good weather." Repeated reports have told of German forces massed at French channel ports, impatiently waiting for the air force to "soften up" the British. The reich summarized Sunday's successes as 147 British planes destroyed and 33 balloons shot down from the British balloon barrage. German losses were put at 36. The high command pronounced Eritish night raids against Germany Ineffective. (However, reports from Switzerland, across Lake Constance from Germany, said the British Sunday night raided armament plants along Lake Constance and scored hits on a big German aluminum plant, causing fires.) DOWNS BOMBER London, Aug.

19. (U.R) A German Heinkel 111 bomber attacked a British training plane over southwest England Monday. The British plane had no armament and was at the mercy of the swift and heavily armed German. A moment later, the score was 5 to 1 for Britain. The British pilot whipped his tiny plane around and crashed head on Into the bomber.

The bomber crashed and its crew of five died. The British pilot also was killed. There are approximately 408,000 retail gasoline outlets In the United States.

19. 0J.P) Two small fires in Deer Lodge National forest and a pair of minor blazes in Beaverhead National forest south of here all were believed to be under control Monday. Deer Lodge forest officials expected to extinguish both fires shortly. One, about three miles west of Silver Bow, had burned over 300 acres of grass, brush and some timber. The other, on the Little Boulder river, had covered about 80 acres before It was controlled.

Both Beaverhead forest blazes were believed to have been caused by careless smokers or campers. They covered a total of approximately 280 acres. FORESTRY HEAD TO AID Yellowstone Park, Aug. 19. (U.R) J.

D. Coffman, Washington, D. chief of forestry for the national park service, Monday night arrived in Yellowstone park to ild in mapping fire control plans. Light scattered rains fell Monday afternoon but were not sufficient to aid control efforts. All but one major blaze jumped partially-completed fire lines.

An additional 100 civilian conservation corps enrollees were transported to the park from reclamation camps near Cody, Wyo. Approximately 1,600 men were in the fire lines Monday night. More than 640 men on the huge Moose lake fire made good gains Monday, officials said, but weary crews on other blazes, reinforced with additional recruits, were unable to prevent the fires spreading into additional timber.

Report Ship Bombed Dublin, Tuesday, Aug.

20. (U.R) A German plane bombed and machine-gunned the 1.922-ton British passenger steamer St. Patrick Saturday off the Irish coast killing one person, it was revealed early Tues-. day. that, time and again, the president sought to arouse the American peo ple to the danger in the European situation, only to have his request for defense appropriations attacked again and again as excessive and unnecessary; only to have his warn ings met again and again with Jibes and jeers from Mr.

Willkie's new-found friends, and to be accused, as Mr. Willkie shabbily accused him on Saturday, of inventing war scares for selfish political pur poses?" Willkie, the speaker observed, accepts the new deal reforms in principle but "where was he when the Republicans were fighting tooth-and-nall against all of these measures?" "All through this period," Ickes continued, "he was doing his very best to prevent the most dynamic and hopeful project of the whole new deal the Tennessee valley authorityfrom functioning." Referring to Willkie's call for freedom of opportunity, Ickes said: "His whole history negatives any interest in free opportunity. The country knows him as a holding company executive. The opportunity that he has given to free enterprise has consisted in cutting the throats of small independent power companies." Concerning Willkie's remarks on labor policy, the secretary asserted: "No glittering generalities about the candidate's belief In collective bargaining will quiet labor's fears so long as the labor-baiting Weirs and Girdlers remain unrebuked" Replying to Willkie's arraignment of "political machines," Ickes said that Willkie had "always enjoyed association with political machines" while new dealers "sent Boss Pendergast of Kansas City" and others to the penitentiary. Willkie, he said, joined Tammany hall In 1929 and later "fought in the ranks of Tammany hall, which sought the defeat of Fiorello La-Guardia, the courageous and administrator of a great city." Willkie, he continued, had once praised the late Samuel Insull as a "forceful, dynamic and attractive figure" while thousands of others "execrate Insull as the man who ruined them." Asserting that Willkie's followers included the "hate-Roosevelt" element and foes of farm relief, work relief, collective bargaining and other measuies, Ickes added: "The Republican party in 1940 contains the equivalent of England's and France's pro-nazi Munich appeased of 1938 the men with the black umbrellas." "What has Mr.

Willkie's current party to offer America but more Munichs. more appeasement abroad, and more defeatism and more reaction at home?" Moose Women to Meet Women of the Moose will meet In executive session Tuesday at 7:30 p. m. at the home of Mrs. Ha West-wood, senior regent.

714 North Thirtieth street. Officers, escorts and committee chairmen will meet at 8 p. m. following the executive meeting, lodge officers said. "left wine" publications have al ready begun to publish propaganda handed them by the administration charging American businessmen with lack of patroitism and with major interest in profits only.

This sort of smearing tactics is expected to throw up a smokescreen to cover up the tragic blunders and delays that have already encompassed me defense program in the last 90 days. Coming as these charges do from an administration which by its legislation, and its arbitrary rulings have done more to break down the profit-and-loss system than any other single force in the whole economic history of America, it will be interesting to see whether this form of attack will get by the voters whether attributing greed motives to America's manufacturers will stand up upon disclosure of the facts and explain away our lack of airplanes today. For nobody in the adminis tration has yet offered to go out and start airplane factories and plants with his own money to cover risks though there has been plenty of readiness to lena the taxpayers money without assurance of its re turn to the treasury. As long as there is a profit-and- loss system, it will be necessary for money to earn wages or else inves tors will not risk their savings. And if the administration is endeavoring to use the war and national defense to bring about the collapse of the profit system and to substitute government ownership of everything together with the so-called "service" motive under the guise of a patriotic call, then It will be evident that the war emergency is being used to fur ther a system of collectivism which no administration would dare to offer frankly in a political cam palgn.

Mr. Willkie's challenge to Mr. Roosevelt to meet him face to face in debate was no ordinary challenge It was an attempt to do a little de bunking and to meet the innuendoes which have come from the administration that there is something wrong in having a political 'cam paign at this time or In talking politics. There is surely nothing wrong in asking the man who hap pens to be president and is seeking a third term to come out and de bate the issues extemporaneously without the aid of "ghost writers" or "brain trusters." Mr. Roosevelt in the past has used the convenient device of "non political" campaigning to put across innuendoes leveled at his political opponents.

If he is to make trips around the country "Inspecting de- iense projects," he will find Mr Wlllkle asking him to use the same time for debate that he gives to po Htlcal conferences and interviews with the press on political ques tions. what the Republican nominee really is demanding is that there be an end to the camouflage that Just oecause jvm Roosevelt happens tff be president he is not an active Do mical candidate seeking office and is not amenable to the desires of the public for answers directed at him by his opponent. Having eliminated the so-called need for one man to continue in power by pointing out that the Drln- clples of America's foreign policy will be maintained irrespective of wnicn political party wins next November, Mr. Willkie has really eliminated the excuse that the president gave the Chicago convention for his willingness to accept a third nominationsomething which he publicly contended he did not intend to do except for reasons of foreign policy growing out of the war in Europe. The campaign has opened with some strong statements from each pandidate, and it will be no pussyfoot affair, for Mr.

Willkie has shown himself a match for the president in a blow for blow contest on current issues. Nor will the Re publican nominee let the American people forget the fact that long before the crisis in Europe developed, Secretaries Ickes and Wallace and Attorney General Jackson the intimate members of the president's own official family were permitted by Mr. Roosevelt to go up and down the country making third-term statements and speeches. Maybe in seeking to put an end to political chicanery this campaign will furnish a new slogan to make America safe from hypocrisy.

Advertise ment. sm iron's Fun eh a 11 jii ESTABLISHED IN ISM Cheyenne, Aug. 19. More than 100 Democratic and Re publican candidates for nomination to federal and state legislative se ts wound up Monday the quietest primary election campaign held in Wyoming in several years. Beginning at 9 a.

m. Tuesday between 60,000 and 66,000 voters are expected to select nominees from both parties for United States senator, congressman, 14 state senators, and 56 members of the house of representatives. The polls will close at 7 p. m. Lacking the customary enthusiasm of a campaign, Interest in the primary election has centered largely around a five-man race for the Republican nomination for United States senator and a four-man contest for the Democratic congressional nomination.

Senator C. O'Mahoney, Democrat, and Representative Frank O. Horton, Republican, both are seeking renominatlon for second terms. O'Mahoney Is being opposed by Cecil W. Clark, Newcastle attorney, and Horton has opposition from B.

Frank Bratcher, Sheridan attorney. Republican senatorial candidates are State Senator Harry B. Henderson, of Cheyenne, former Congressman C. E. Winter of Casper, former State Senator I.

W. Dins-more of Rawlins, State Representative R. R. Crow of Saratoga, and Milward Simpson of Cody. Seeking the Democratic congressional nomination are State Senator Green R.

Simpson and Riley Wilson, both of Greybull, Dr. J. C. Mc-Henry of Gillette, and John Mcln-tyre of Douglas. Senator O'Mahoney arrived in Cheyenne Sunday and will remain until Tuesday when he will return to Washington after casting hti vote in the primary election.

He had no comment to make Monday on the campaign or his candidacy for rcnomination. Horton was expected to cast ar. absentee ballot in Washington. Certain reliable sources indicated Monday that they do not expect the total vote to be cast in Tuesday's election to be not more than 60,000 ballots. Others, however, expressed the belief the vote might equal th 1936 primary total of 66,136, a presidential election year.

In 1938, an off year, 65,852 votes were cast. There were some who felt, however, that the vote would be lighter than that of 1936 because of the uninteresting campaign. One state official, who declined to be quoted directly, said he felt that the lack of interest in the campaign was due largely to the international situation which he said had overshadowed domestic issues. Senator O'Mahoney and Dr. Mc-Henry entered the primaries with the indorsement of the Townsend old-age pension group.

Horton received the pensioner's support two years ago, but won their disapproval when he failed to vote for the pension bill. The campaign, generally speaking, revolved around an individual salesmanship drive by the respective candidates for office with the exception of Senator O'Mahoney and Representative Horton who were unable to campaign actively because of the continued session of congress. The slate legislative campaig -s, have been quiet and have developed little activity. The Democrats were short two candidates for senator and eight for representative on their legislative slates, while the Republicans were minus a candidate for senator and three for repre sentative. The vacancies will have to be filled In by the write-in method.

In addition to the federal and state legislative races, the voters in virtually every one of the 23 counties will select at least one commissioner. The fact that no other county officers were involved in this election also was given by some as a reason for a possible light vote Tuesday. Nonpartisan elections to nominate district judges in the First. Third and Fourth judicial districts also will be held Tuesday. District Judge James H.

Burgess of Sheridan is unopposed for re-nomination in the Fourth district which is composed of Sheridan, Campbell and Johrison counties. District Judge Sam Thompson of Cheyenne is being opposed for re-nomination in the First district. Platte, Laramie and Goshen counties, by District Court Clerk W. A. James of Cheyenne.

District Judge H. R. Christmas of Kemmerer is opposed in the Third district. Uinta, Lincoln. Sublette and Teton counties, by Reuel Walton of Evanston.

Governor and Mrs. Nels H. Smith left Monday morning for their home at Horton where they will vote Tuesday. They will return to Cheyenne Tuesday night or Wednesday. Candidate Charles E.

Winter of Casper, when questioned regarding his view of the probable outcome of the primaries, as it. would effect him. had the following to sav: "I have contacted the voters in 90 per cent of the business houses of every town in Wyoming. Thev want national experience and Judg ment in their senator; a man to fight for Wyoming's right. They voted for me before and will do so again.

I will be nominated by a good plurality," he predicted in con elusion. At Gillette, Dr. McHenry declared that he was satisfied with the party's chances for a victory in the November election and forecast the renomination and reelection of Senator O'Mahoney. As to his own chances Tuesday, he said he believed they were "good" and added that he had conducted a vigorous campaign. Declaring that he had opposed Senator O'Mihoney "because he could not support the party machine," Clark anounced at Newcastle that he believed his chances against the senior senator were "pretty good." He said he had conducted a quiet campaign.

Riley Wilson in a statement from I Greybull pointed to his rerurd of six years In the state house of representatives, and reiterated that an active Townsendlte he stood for adequate pensions for the aged, Hepburn, long a bitter political foe of Prime Minister Mackenzie King, one of the negotiators of the agreement, applauded it, provided it is "applied to the immediate arm ing of the two countries and aid to Great Britain." CREATES NEW PO8T8 Ottawa, Aug. 19. (JP) Following up the linking of United States and Canadian defenses by President Roosevelt and Prime Minister W. L. Mackenzie King, Canada Monday night created the new positions of naval and military attaches at Washington.

Captain Victor G. Brodeur, Pacific coast commander of the royal Canadian navy was appointed naval attache, and Colonel H. P. G. Letson of Vancouver, military attache.

Navy Minister Angus Macdonald said the action was not to be interpreted as having resulted from the week-end conferences of President Roosevelt and Prime Minister Mackenzie King. Macdonald mentioned at a press conference Monday that Commodore H. E. Reld, naval commander of the Canadian Atlantic coast, was visit ing Newfoundland with a party led by Minister C. G.

Power. This gave rise to speculation that the harbor situation in Newfoundland would be canvassed for possible establishment there of a Canadian-American naval base. Asked whether some disused United States 'destroyers might be turned over to the Canadian navy, Macdonald would say only that the Canadian navy had enough personnel to man several more destroyers if they were available. Germany and U. S.

Continue Row (Continued from Page 1.) through Pentland firth to Kirkwall for further routing instructions." It added vessels wishing to pro ceed from Finland must go to Kirk wall for routing Instructions or proceed "at their own peril." Acting as spokesman for the em bassy was First Secretary Wllhelm Tannenberg who said the conference was called to "clear up certain confusion" regarding Germany's advance warning. German naval and aerial com manders all have been advised of the transport's course, and they will scrupulously obey their orders, he said. He added that explosives had been laid by airplanes in blockade sectors known to all neutrals, including the United States. Nevertheless, he pointed out, the American Legion, despite advance warning, is taking a course through this region. He stressed repeatedly that Ger many had no interest in stopping the transport and that German communications with the United States Wffc dictated solely In the interest of protecting the ship.

Welles said the slate depaime.nt Is closely following the vessel's prog ress. Its course, he 'added, was agreed upon after most careful considera tion of possible hazards. He withheld the exact course of the boat but German advices indicated it was proceeding through waters between the Isle of Rona and Cape Wrath on the north coast of Scotlandon an almost direct route from Petsrtnio to New York. Welles would not eln borate whv this course was selected. He said the progress of the ship was being followed through reports of American military and attaches aboard.

His statement was described as an explanation of this government's stern note to Germany Sunday night. Dr. Tannenberg said a much safer course for the vessel would have been close to Iceland which is both shorter route and understood to be reasonably satisfactory from the weather standpoint at this time of ear. He said Germany disclaimed re sponsibility for the ship after circumstances had changed or were in prospect of changing. Late Monday Welles announced the German embassy had informed the state department of the transfer to another country of Friedrich Rled, a German consul in New York, whose presence had been protested by antinazi groups.

Substance of the protests was that Reld was sent to New York after leaving Brazil under suspicion of fifth-column activities. PASSENGERS UNAWARE OF ROW New York, Aug. 19. aboard the United States refugee steamer American Legion are unaware of Germany's warning the ship is proceeding through dangerous, newly-mined waters at its own risk, Mrs. Florence Jaffray Harrl-man.

United States minister to Norway, Informed the Associated Press Monday afternoon In a wireless message from the ship. Responding to an inquiry made Saturday, when Germany issued the warning, Mrs. Harriman's message read: "Your message first intimation of newly-mined area. No one aboard informed." The ship left Petsamo, Finland last Friday, and now is entering the neighborhood of British waters which the Oermans said are peril ous. May Close -National Forest Due to Fire Hamilton, Aug.

19. (JP) Forest officials considered closing the Bitter Root National forest to fishermen and campers as they battled a 200-acre fire Monday. The blaze, which forest officials said unquestionably was of Incendiary origin, was brought under control after racing through valuable timber and watershed near the new west fork dam. A crew of 140 was kept on the fire lines Monday to "mop up." pedltlonary force and promotion and development of the state's natural resources. Simpson, a member of the University of Wyoming board of trustees, was not available for comment at Cody.

State Senator Green Simpson of Greybull said the campaign In whicn he has been seeking the Democratic congressional nomination "has been fairly clean as far as the candidates are concerned." He added he was certain that he had a good chance to win the nomination. Mclntyre was forced to close his campaign last month because of national guard maneuvers which took him to Washington this month. Dinsmore, finishing his G. O. P.

senatorial race at Rock Springs, sal'l he detected an overwhelming Republican sentiment, and added he was confident of winning the nomination. Debating Challenge Issued Willkie By Norman Thomas Albany, N. Aug. 19. Thomas, Socialist presidential candidate, Monday challenged Wendell L.

Wlllkle to a debate on vital Issues facing the people of this country. Thomas wired the G. O. P. presidential nominee: "I applaud your desire to revive the Lincoln-Douglas debate tradition.

In principle your position and the president's on vital issues is the same. "My position on peacetime conscription and economic policy is very different and emphatically worth public discussion. "Whether or not the president wishes to join us the national interest can be served by a meeting between you and Women Ask Solons To Oppose Conscription Bill Washington, Aug. 19. (JP) With shouts of "keep our men at home," a score or more women virtually took over the senate reception lobby Monday and buttonholed senators to demand that they oppose the conscription bill In its present form.

Mrs. Mary A. Decker of Detroit said the women were members of the "mothers of the United States" who believed that "if we're in all the danger these senators and congressmen say we are, then we want our men right here at home to protect She said there was a fear among the women that "our men will be sent to Canada." Convicted Murderer Who Escaped In 1933 Recaptured Pineville, W. Aug. 19.

Piatt said Canada had been living at Reliance, under the name of "Walt S. Clark." He was arrested when he returned to this district for a visit.

The officer quoted Canada as saying he had married and was the father of two children. Convicted of slaying Woodrow Shumate after an argument over turkeys, he escaped from the county jail.
