The Rev. Charles E.

Coughlin repeated Sunday in full his address last Sunday on the nazi persecution of Jews and asked his radio New York Radio Station Refuses To 'Carry' Coughlin NEW YORK, Nov. 27 OP). Radio station WMCA announced Sunday "Father Coughlin has canceled his radio series over WMCA by his failure to submit a copy of his broadcast In advance by noon Sunday as required by WMCA." Differences between the Detroit radio priest and the local station began last Sunday after his regular broadcast. A station announcer followed Father Coughlin's talk with the statement that "unfortunately, Father Coughlin has made some mistakes of fact." Some listeners regarded part of his remarks as anti-Semitic. Station officials subsequently requested the priest to submit Sunday's talk to them 48 hours In advance of delivery.

This later was changed to four hours, which was noon Sunday. At the hour set for Father Coughlin's broadcast, a station announcer read a statement declaring the priest's failure to submit an advance copy of his speech "made it impossible for. us to live up to our inescapable responsibility under the terms of our license." Father Coughlin's speech Sundav audience "to judge for Itself whether the speech was either vicious or un-American." "Following last Sunday's broadcast," said the Royal Oak (Mich) priest, "a vicious campaign of misrepresentation, based upon fancy and not upon fact, has been carried on not only against me, but against the cause I represent." Dr. Coughlin added that "I am forced to defend myself, not for myself, but for the cause I uphold." He described last Sunday's address as one "whose main objective was to point out the cause of all persecution persecution of Christians as well as of Jews" and continued: "Admittedly, I did attack and will continue to attack the atheistic Jews and the atheistic Gentiles and those who sustain them. Will Prove Points "But as a matter of record, I will prove that actually I Invited and still invite the noncommunlst, non-atheistic Jews, whom I respect and with whom I deeply sympathize, to join with me in combatting communism, I will prove that I did not de fend naziism but condemned it vigorously.

I will prove that I condemned the nazi programs." Dr. Coughlin then gave the following six-point summary of his previous discourse, which he said showed: "1. That unparalled publicity was given to the recent Jewish persecution in Germany culminating in a $400,000,000 fine against 600,000 Jews; and that such glowing publicity was a blessing because it brings the whole problem of per secutlon Into the open. "2. That the persecution of the Jews in Germany is to be con demned; that it is an injustice.

"3. That there were definite causes that produced the effect known as naziism. According to German statements, the Jews were too closely interwoven with the growth of communism In Germany. Liquidate All Persecution "4. That despite this charge on the part of the nazi government, persecution is an Injustice and must not be tolerated; that while we are dealing with the subject of persecution, let us of this generation liquidate all persecution persecution by communists of Christians as well as persecution by nazis of Jews.

"6. That it was regrettable that the press and radio in America, In which avocations Jews have risen to such high prominence that these were not employed to complain vigorously about the persecution of Christians in recent years. 6. That these recent years have gone; that this is our year. I em phasized that we of this age should distil our sympathy not only from tne tears of the Jewish sufferers but also from the blood of Christian martyrs and eliminate all persecution and the cause thereof." After asserting last week's broad cast was "neither unpatriotic nor un-American, nor anti-Jewish nor pronazi," the priest rebroadcast a transcription of that address.

He told Fox that he escaped from the Iowa state prison hospital In Boone where he had underwent an operation. He said prior to entering the hospital, he had served one year of a 15-year prison sentence for "dealing in bad checks."

But it is foolishness of that kind that helps to make life enjoyable. Also, in a perverted sort of way, that kind of spending is a pretty fair sort of hedge against hard times. For when you have spent your money on something you wanted and have had your fun with it, you've had something no future depression is going to take away from you.

If you lose your Job next year, or all your investments go sour, or you have to start supporting your son-in-law, that can't rob you of a good time you've already had. And perhaps the present is a good time for a little disquisition on the virtues of spending, after all. A business revival is on the way; the seers seem to agree that it will be helped along by a "buy now" campaign. A too-thrifty people could choke off that revival before it got started. In any case, there's a lot to be said for this Cleveland woman's rebellion against the "too sensible" plan for handling her money.

The really sensible way, often enough, is the one which allows for some totally unnecessary spending. Industrial Exhibit Opens Here Today What Tyler, has accomplished as an industrial center of East Texas will be depicted in an array of exhibits that will be on display Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday in the Blackstone hotel lobby.

A by Says Mi( By PAUL MICKELSON NEW YORK, Nov. 27 W5). Putting two and two together after count- ing the final returns from all but a few scattered precincts on the foot ball map: The bowl situation now Is in Its most hopeless uproar. The boys from the Far West have the ball and they're welcome to it. No matter whom they Invite as the "eastern" representative they're going to make a flock of enemies.

It might be a good idea to doublecross them all by shifting the Rose Bowl date to Dec. 3 when Southern California plays Notre Dame. It would save a lot of red faces from irther embarrassment. As mighty as Texas Christian, Tennessee and Oklahoma seem to be, the hunch Is that Duke's perfect team now has the call. The Dukes are the added starters in the race because no one gave them a tumble up to two weeks ago.

Now they constitute the greatest "eastern" natural in many a season. Not only did the Iron Dukes keep their goal line uncrossed and wind up with a great triumph over Pittsburgh but they are coached by Wallace Wade, who took three Alabama teams to the Rose Bowl and never once got trimmed. This corner Is inclined to believe the boys In the Par West want another crack at Wade and his "wonder team'' though T.C.U. would put on a livelier show with little Davey O'Brien's aerial circus. Because of the Far Western muddle, It would be a smart move to let visitors play for the Rose Bowl title.

Southern California, twice beaten, rates to take living number three from Notre Dame next Saturday which will give the Invading bowl team everything to lose (except the $90,000,000 or $100,000,000 6hare of the gate) and no great amount of prestige to win. But the bowl promoters aren't so much concerned with a came between two unbeaten teams as they are the gate and the pageantry, always assured to be successes. Because of the Rose Bowl muddle, the other bowl promoters are In a choice spot, especially the Sugar Bowl meastros. If th can only get the two teams not Invited to Pasadena, they'll have the big game. A postseason battle between Duke and T.C.U., or Duke and Tennessee or Tennessee and T.C.U., would be worth the price of admission.

The Sugar Bowl people, however, may make the error of Inviting a Northeastern team, probably Fordham. Somehow Fordham's team leaves us cold. It remains, one too much of a WPA crew ready to knock off work any time the whistle toots. Which Is the strongest team In the nation? Nobody knows. However, Notre Dame, If It does get by Southern California, will earn the accolade because of Its varied schedule Kansas, Georgia Tech, Illinois, Carnegie Tech, Army and Navy, Minnesota, Northwestern and Southern California.

The second hardest football gauntlet was run by T.C.U., among the leadersCentenary, Arkansas, Temple, Texas Marquette. Baylor, Texas, Rice and Southern Methodist. Duke met only one major team Pittsburgh but its conquest over the Panthers was worth the price of four victories over good teams. Tennessee still has Ole Miss left and Bullet Hall and his mates may Shove the Vols out of the undefeated class. That's another worry for the Rose Bowl folks In case they decide to decide the "eastern" team this week.

Out of the wreckage of the season one Important development towers over all others. It Is the decline and fall of Pittsburgh. Torn by Internal dissension, it appears Fitt's glorious era is over. And Just In time, too. Everybody was getting a bit weary of Pitt's victory march Just as they did of Notre Dame's under Knute Rockne and Minnesota's.

Like in any sport, a team can get too good in football. -o TWINS FOR THE BENTON'S DANVILLE, Nov. 27 (IP). Mrs. James W.

GASTON BUICK CO. 180 Phone 2892 I i I I a a survived by his widow, two sons and i a daughter. By KIRKE L. SIMPSON WASHINGTON, Nov. 27 (JP)- Statesmen of the American conti nent have dreamed for a century of a new-world hemisphere safe guarded by unity among its peoples and governments against old-world ouarrels and acquisitive envy.

That dream may reach its nearest reall zation next month at Lima, Peru. The hope any expectation that this will be true marked every step taken by the Washington government in preparation for the 1936 Pan-American conference. It un derscored every word uttered by Secretary of State Hull and his associates on the United States delegation when they set sail for Lima intent on tightening anew the ties that bind more than a score of American democracies together in a world distraught by ideologic wars and rumors of wars. The first full-dress assembly of the American nations gathered in Washington in 1889, nearly half a century ago. It had taken more than five decades for the wistful dreaming of earlier statesmen to reach that point.

It has taken another five decades, a World War and its nerve-racking aftermath to produce the Lima meeting and its potential challenge to forces in Europe that produced the Munich crisis and brought about a retreat for democracy. The records of many administra tions show just how closely the hope of. ultimate and effective Pan American solidarity has been held in the hearts of presidents of the United States over the years. It was President Benjamin Harrison's secretary of state, James B. Blaine who called the first conference of American nations and started the march toward Lima and beyond.

It has been a checkered story of ups and downs; but no president since Harrison, regardless of party or conflict at home over domestic policies, has failed to do his bit toward promoting Pan-American solidarity In principle as the most certain guarantee of new-world peace. The outbreak of the World War in 1914 gave that solidarity concept an acid test. It held fast against any reflection in this hemisphere of the same conflict that racked Europe. Before the United States was drawn into that struggle, Presi dent Wilson proposed that the Monroe Doctrine be submerged in a mutual all-for-one-and-one-for all pact for the Americas. President Coolidge, against whose administration cries of imperialism were raised both at home and in Latin America, set aside a tradition of his office to attend a Pan American conference in Cuba.

His successor in the White House, Herbert Hoover, prepared for his presi dential policy-making duties with Pan-American relations first in mind. As president-elect he toured neighboring nations to the South on a good will mission aimed at widen ing and strengthening cultural social and economic unity in this hemisphere. Then came President Franklin Roosevelt to look southward also in his first Inaugural, proclaiming his "good neighbor foreign policy keynote. Later he, too, traveled southward to foster Pan-American solidarity personally in Buenos Aires. Two of these presidents were re publicans, two democrats.

That is a striking illustration of the atti tude in Washington through the years, that partisanship halts at tho country's frontiers. In the makeup of the 1938 delegation to i-iima that same message is im pressively restated, not only for the attention of Pan-America but for Berlin, Rome, and Tokyo. inclusion in the delegation of former Gov. Alfred Landon of Kansas, titular head of the republican party and its last presidential nominee, is something more than a graceful administration gesture, in the eyes of Washington veterans, But for the circumstance that he has declared himself out of the 1940 presidential race, the presence of Landon at Lima would give the assembled delegates from the other Americas a curious prevue of what might happen two years from now in the United States. Hull is already widely talked of for the democratic presidential nomination, 1940 rumors would be thick around his name.

The moral of their joint appear ance at Lima is that Pan-American solidarity, on a footing of equality and mutual tolerance and democratic Intercourse, is the hope and desire of both major political parties in this country. Snowshoe Party Sets Out On 100-Mile Jaunt To Aid Marooned Group AUGUSTA, Maine, Nov. 27 (JP). snowshoe party, under orders from Gov. Lewis O.
