Griffith Says
* Europeans Musi 1
f Do More Work '
PARIS, l/P)—Paul H. Griffith, |
former national commander of the ;
American Legion, said yesterday
a seven-week tour of western Eu
rope had convinced him more,
strongly than ever that universal
military training was necessary in
the United States.
“The only wav to preserve
^ peace is to make ourselves strong
er,” he said in an interview. “I
have always believed in universal
military training. What I have
seen over here confirms me com
pletely.”
Griffith and his touring parly
of 140 Legionnaires and their
wives visited England, France,
Belgium, Switzerland, Germany
and Italy.
“Any unfriendliness to the
United States in Europe is a re
* suit of Russian propaganda,” he
declared. “Actually there is a re
markable fund of strong goodwill
in every country here for the
United States.”
Griffith said he favored quick
approval by Congress of the Mar
shall plan, but felt that many Eu
ropeans must work harder.
“We found too many people
taking over three and a half hours
for lunch,” he said. “We realize
that Europe needs coal and wheat,
* and I think the United States is
able and willing to supply them.

Archbishop Pleads
For National Unity
In England
LONDON, (/P)—The archbishop (
of York called on Britain’s oppos- j
ing political parties yesterday to
present a united front to save the ;
nation from becoming a “third
rate power.”
The archbishop—Dr. Cyril Gar
bett—urged national unity “in this :
grave hour in our history” in his '
presidential address, prepared for1
the full synod of the convocation
of York, ancient forum of the •
Church of England.
The Archbishop prophesied a
“long, severe and monotonous”
struggle ahead for economic se
curity. He cautioned that larger
profits and higher wages would
bring inflation and general ruin,
and urged unselfishness and fel
lowship by all classes.
“So far,” he said, “there are few
signs of the national unity wlvcn
was so remarkably shown in the,
war. It would be disastrous if the
handling of the economic crisis
should divide the country on party
lines.”

hours and then take a big part of
their incomes in taxes to pay for
shipments to Europe when we
know people over here work as
little as 35 or 40 hours a week.
“We are willing to help, but the
Europeans have got to help them
selves, too.”
The Griffith party planned to
leave by boat train for England to
sail Oct. 18 on the Queen Mary,
due in New York Oct. 23.

:Sea Otter Thrive

SEATTLE, (/P)—Colonies of sea
otter, once almost extinct and still
among the rarest of fur-bearing
animals, are thriving and multi

I survey officers said yesterday.
The almost unapproachable site
of the otter refuge must be kept
secret to prevent poaching, they
said. One officer, although declin
ing to estimate the total number
of the combined colonies, said he
counted as many as 100 otters in
a single herd.
They were hunted almost to ex

Allies to Dismantle
Many German
Industrial Plants
_ !
BERLIN, <£») — The Bri t i s h -
American military governments
yesterday announced plans to dis
mantle 682 German industrial and
war plants in their two zones for
reparations in the “speediest” time
possible to expedite European
economic recovery.
Of the factories, 380 are metal,
chemical and electric engineering,
shipbuilding and power plants.
The remainder are war plants
from which .the statement said
much of the general purpose
equipment already had been de
livered to the inter-allied repara
tions agency, the Soviet Union and
Poland.
Gen. Lucius D. Clay, U. S. mil
itary governor, has estimated the
plants’ value at $1,000,000,000. Lt.
Gen. Sir Brian Robertson, desig
nated British military governor,
said the dismantling would re
quire at least two years. He said
labor battalions of up to 35,000
, men would be organized should
; the Germans refuse to co-operate,

threatened. He hinted soldiers
Summer Takes
Curtain Call
In States
<By The Associated Press*
Summer’s return engagement
over most of the country was ex
tended for at least another day by
the weather bureau yesterday.
Unseasonably warm weather
and generally clear skies were
predicted for most of the nation
following Wednesday's above nor
mal temperatures.
The mercury shot to near the 90
mark in some parts of the mid
west, and new records for the date
and for October were set in many
communities.
The 89 reading at Springfield,
ill., topped the marks in the des
ert. where the top in Yuma, Ariz.,
was 88 and in Phoenix, Ariz., was
84. Chicago’s 88 set a new all time
October high, while Gladwin, in
northern lower Michigan, had a
summer reading of 87.
Rain fell in the southeastern
section of the country in the wake
of the tropical storm and there
also were showers and a dip in
temperatures in Washington, Ore
gon and northern California.
