The Fuehrer spoke in the beer hall cellar that was the scene of his abortive putsch 16 years ago today. Around him were gathered comrades of that His words were broadcast only within Germany. Throughout his speech he heaped derision on the British, especially First Lord of Admiralty Winston Churchill but said little of the French. He said Germany, like Britain, wanted an end of wars, but that this could not be until Britain is forced to abandon "its attempt to establish a police dictatorship" over the world. British Claim "Only for Laughter in Germany" Hitler spoke sarcastically of British assertions that the Allies are fighting to protect civilization and to restore justice.

He said Germany was fooled once when ereat ideals were held out hafter the last war, and would not be duped again. "When Britain today says she is fighting for culture and civiliza RED STREAK FINAL LATEST NEWS AND SPORTS tion, that is only for laughter in Germany," he said. The real reason, he implied, is that they hate Nazi Germany. "The British hate the fact that we abolished unemployment and wiped out social discrimination, he said. "The British hate the fact that we are developing a fresh, strong youth.

They hate the fact that we are helping ourselves economically through the four- year plan." Ready to Fight Five Years If Necessary Declaring Germany was ready to fight five years if necessary, he declared: "The day war broke out, I gave Field Marshal Herman Goering orders to prepare for a five-year war.

Burke alone. They adopted a rule banning married schoolteachers and fired her. Today Mayor Cowing is out of office and Mrs. Burke is' the first woman Mayor in Massachusetts. When the city of Westfield separated Mrs.

Burke from her juvenile pupils, it kicked her upstairs into the merry field of politics. No one took her emergence in 1933 as a candidate for the "School committee seriously and no one certainly ever suspected thij; she would be Mayor. But that's where she is today a victor over Mayor Cowing by 127 votes in yesterday's election.

Mayor Childs, veteran Mayor of. Newton, was defeated for reelection by Paul M. Goddard ill the city's first election under the system of preferential voting by a margin of only 90 As Mayor Childs entered his petition today for a recount, friends of Goddard advised him to petition the District Court for an order to impound the ballots until the recount can begin. Earlier returns gave Goddard a margin of 1000, but his was reduced when, because no candidate had a majority of the first choice votes, it became necessary to count second and third choices.

In Boston the voters supplied several surprises. The law forbidding a Mayor to succeed himself in office was repealed. This action of the voters came as almost a direct invitation to Mayor Tobin to become a candidtae for another term on the expiration of his present one. In the elections to School committee, City Councilor Clement A. Norton led the field with Committeeman Joseph C.

Burke, Mayor-elect at Westfield, shown ready for bicycle riding, in this exclusive Globe (By the United Press) California and Ohio voters overwhelmingly defeated "Utopian" old-age pension plans in yesterday's off-year election. Californians rejected the "ham and eggs" $30 every Thursday plan, which President Roosevelt termed "a short cut to Utopia," by a majority approaching 2 to 1. It had rejected the plan in 1938 when it was offered in less drastic form. Its sponsors, bitter in defeat, said they would offer it as a constitutional initiative again next year.

They planned to seek the recall of Gov. Culbert Olson, who opposed them. Ohio turned down the Bigelow plan, which would have provided $50 monthly to single persons over 60 and $80 to married couples by a margin of- almost 3 to 1. This scheme was to have been financed by a tax on high-priced real estate and incomes. 53 Died From Blast on British Sub Bay State May Not See Snow Cruiser After AH Monster Vehicle, Delayed by Breakdowns, Likely to Head for Philadelphia Instead Resistrv of Tanker Here Already Changed to Panama 9 a iron- make studv of the LONDON, Nov.

8 (UP)-Four officers and 49 men perished in the sinking of the British submarine Oxley by an accidental explosion, the Admiralty announced tonight. The accident occurred several weeks ago, but was revealed only today when Winston Churchill, First Lord of Admiralty, made a statement to the House of Commons. SUBMARINE OXLEY SINKING ACCIDENTAL LONDON. Nov. 8 (AP) The loss of the British submarine Oxley by accidental explosion was disclosed to the House of Commons today by Winston Churchill, First Lord of the Admiralty.

Churchill also reported that the British Navy had suffered greater loss of life in this war than all French tnd British services combined. However, he added, in his weekly statement, on progress of the war at sea, a fairly sound, conservative estimate" of German submarine losses was between two and four a week. Germany, he asserted, was capable of producing two new submarines a week and he expected Britain "must face 100 U-boats in January less whatever sinkings have occurred."
