unequal educational opportunity in
America
Such federal aid would not be
needed if every state had taxable
wealth and income iln approxi
mately the same proportion to
| school needs, he said, but the re
| spective taxable resources of the
lstates for education vary widely.
[“A study of tax wresources of
the stateg which are perdominate-f
ly rural leads to one major con-'
clusion—those states cannot ca.rry‘
their educational load unassisted,”
he asserted.
Adviory Report /
The report of the advisory coms
mittee, Reeves said, sets forth a
six-year program g¢f. federal aid to
education- The total amount of
the proposed appropriation for dis
tributionp among the states in the
fiscal year 1938-40 is 70 million
dollars. This amount would in
crease annually and would total
199 million dellars in 1944-45,
The largest single item in the
recommended program is for aiad
to elementary and secondary
schools, the speaker pointed out,
He said it is recommended that
appropriationg to aid such schools
start at 40 million dollars in 1939-
40 and to increase to 140 million
dollars in 1944-45, FEmphasis, he
said, would be placed upon prep
aration for teachers.
The proposed plap guarantees
autonomy to stateg and communi
ties in the management of their
schools, Reeves said.
Pierre De Lanux, touched on in
ternational affairs and asserted
that the French “still expect to
hear a great voice some day com
ing all the way from America and
guiding the peaceful forces, the
progressive forceg of the world.”
Heg said the French masseg had
a ‘“real worship” for the late Wood
row Wilson “when he led us all
in the creation of a world peace
machinery.”
“It it should happen again,” said
De Lanux, ‘“whether it ig Mr.
Roosevelt's voice or Mr. Hull's
(secretary of state) or the voice
of some other Great American,
there is only one thing I want to
say, don't let them do to him what
they did to Mr. Wilson. The mags
eg of the people in the world would
never forgive you thig time,)”

In Spain, insurgent armies saw
ed deeper into the narrow “life
line” link between Catalonia and
the rest of republican territory.
The turn of the war figures
prominently in French and British
rapprochement with Italy—the two
democracies want and probably
will receive an Italian commitment

flict ends.
Spanish government forces were
reported in retreat to the Medi
.erranean at Vinaroz, where an
insurgent drive had narowed the
coastal coridor to seven miles.
In China, despite recent reverses,
Japanese forces maintained a
stonewall defense at Yihsien, a
battered spearhead of their drive
against the Lunghai railway.
REPORT DISASTER
SHANGHAI —(#)—The Japanese
army’s spokesman today refused
to deny or confirm the conclusion
of most neutral military experts
here that the Japanese army suf
fered 3 major disaster, its first in
modern times, in the recent battle
in southern Shantung province,
The experts said conservative
estimates indicated Japanese forces
had suffereq more tnan 50 percent
casualties in fighting of the past
ten days, in which they were
thrown back from Taierhchwang
on the Grand Canal to Yihsien, 20
miles to the northwesy.
Japanese reports indicated the
Japanese command was sbheeding
reinforcements from the north,
northeast, south and southeast to
warg the Shantung battlefield in
hopes of retrieving the disaster.
The foreign experts believed that
of 50,000 Japanese engaged in the
fight for Taierhchwang 7,000 to
10,000 were killed and 20,000 wound
ed. Jubilant Chinese claims of 20,
000 Japanese killea were believed
too high.
Chinese losses, the foreigners es.
timated, were two or three times
as large as the Japanese, since the
Chinese. had much larger forces
engaged and won in the final phase
by smothering their foe by weighi
of numbers, cutting off and de
stroying Japanese detachments in
hand-to-hang fighting.

1 rency. He indicated such examina
|tiuns should be consolidated.
{ Asked whether his $4,500,000,000
| spending and lending recovery
| relief program would be drawn in
|to the omnibus bill, the President
'fsuid that was up to congress. He
.iu]su said the public would have
|to wait for his message to know
‘whether he wants the new tax on
igovernment bonds and salaries to
| be enacted this session.
| “All the energies of government
| and business must be directed to
|in('x'e:l.sing the national income, to
tputting more freople into private
’gjnhs, to giving security and a
I! feeling of security to all people in
| all walks of life,”” Mr. Roosevet
isaid in a “fireside chat” broadcast
,throughout the nation.
| Seek Approval - |
{ Congressional leaders sought
r immediate authorization of the $4,-
i 500.000,000 lending and spending’
program which Mr. Roosevelt rec
! ommended.
| Federal Reserve Board officials,
following the treasury’s release of
'a. $1,392,000,000 gold credit, were
' expected rromptly to reduce bank
reserve requirements by $750,000,000
to- provide a $2,150,000,000 expan
sion of the nation’s credit base.
With these activities Mr, Roose
velt expressly hopes to check the
downward trend of business and
restore the national oomk'
y the preservation of democracy
“In recommending this pro
gram,” he said, “I am thinking
not only of the immediate eco-
nomic needs of the people of the
nation, but also of their personal
liberties—the most precious pos
session of all Americans.”
Democracies have perished and
dictatorships sprung up, Mr.
i Roosevelt continued, under the
ipressure of unemployment and in
security and confusion, weakness
land lack of leadership in govern
ment.
“Not only our future economic
soundness,” he said, “but the very
soundness of our democratic in
stitutions depends on the determi
nation of our government to give
employment to idle men.
“We are a rich nation; we can
afford to pay for security and
prosperity without having to sacri
fice our liberies into the bargain.”
More Moderate
The President, seated at a desk
in the Oval Room of the White
House, spoke slowly. His 40-min
ute talk—longest of his 11 “fire
side chats” came at the close of
an unusually busy day, and many
listeners thought his voice sound
ed tired.
The tone of his remarks was re
garded by many commentators as
more moderate than some of his
past speeches. Without giving any
indication whatever he had in
mind any specific setback his leg
islative program has received, Mr.
Roosevelt said:
“Because 1 do not expect too
much, 1 am not disappointed. But
