Must Seek Trade Or Expect Wars
Philadelphia, April 25. (UP) — With the prediction that eco¬ nomic isolation will lead to Inter¬ national conflict. Assistant Secre¬ tary of State Francis B. Sayre tonight directed a five-point at¬ tack against nationalism "and its corollary, imperialiatic ex¬ pansion."
Speaking before the 40th an¬ nual meeting of American Acad¬ emy of Political and Social Science, he warned against adoption of a "Buy American" movement and "superficial eco¬ nomic   conclusions."
"The proponents of economic Isolation argue that such a pro¬ gram would give the benefit of American markets exclusively to American business and labor," he said. "They claim it would free America from dependence upon foreign production and make this country Independent in case normal trade channels should be  disrupted  by war."
Attacking this point of viow. Sayre contended that unleas th-' United States continued to ex¬ port surplus production, it must face a violent dislocation In it."; entire domestic economy.
"The sum of the whole mat¬ ter,"" he concluded, "is th.-it trade constitutes the very life-blood of nations, and if goods cannot cross frontiers—armies will."'

Bigger New Deal Is Youth Demand
Evanston, III., April 25. (UPi —Politically minded Northwest¬ ern University students tonight endorsed the New Deal, ndded several major objectives of their own, and went on record aa con¬ sidering the two m.-ijor polilical parties no longer worlhy of the respect of thinking American youth.
The delegates vociferously de¬ clared   themselves   in   favor  of:
Retention of cspitalism and private  initiative.
Resusciation of agricultural activity; elimination of unem¬ ployment and recognition of re- ¦•ponsihility of the government Lo  prevent hysterical  booms.
Delegates voted down a plank cnlling for an immediate bal¬ anced budget but favored the adoption of an amendment authorizing taxation of govern¬ ment securities and reorganiza¬ tion  of the tax system.
The platform, submitted by Robert Bast, Wisconsin, also called for abolition of rhlld labor, an adequate minimum wage for labor and compulsory employment  compensation.
An amendment to suppnrt a hill outlawing compulsory mili¬ tary training by the withdrawal of government funds was car¬ ried on a violent wave of "ayes."

Special To Sunday Independent
New York, April 25.—Late this aflernoon the General Scale Com¬ mittee of thc U. M. VV, of A. re¬ ceived a report on the work of this week in which two sub-com¬ mittees sought to adjust the dead¬ lock that has arisen in the writing of a contract for the hard coal In¬ dustry. This morning at eleven oclock four for each side conferred for a little over one hour at Uni¬ versity Club on Fifth Avenue at 54lh. The early ending of this, the sixth consecutive meeting this week. Indicated that the deadlock of the last eight weeks was yet un¬ broken.
Secrecy Maintained Just what transpired behind the closed doors of tlie general mine committee could not be ascertained tonight. Tho veil of complete secrecy has been drawn about this one session, Membera of the ofB¬ cial family and the group of twelve drawn from the rank and file of tho three hard coal districts have been charged with keeping secret detaila of the report and what strategy was outlined. They are heeding that admonition of the leaders who go back again Mon¬ day morning lo take up the task where it was dropped today.
Tonight In New York, as the ninth week of negotiation ends, observers in closest touch with the situation look for a "blow up"' of the conference some time next week. In this connection it is only too plainly shown that without a contract written in the next four days starting wilh Monday, there will come a suspension of work at the minea. It is clear that the oper¬ ators and the miners will not care to go beyond the thirty-day truce that waa granted April Ist. Pinchot Award Blamed Thc impas.se that threatens to send the anthracite fleld inlo a new industrial war has arisen over the matter of wage rates. The man¬ agement of the Industry as rep¬ resented on the negotiating com¬ mittee is set on reducing the labor cost of the industry.

FUNERAL TUESDAY
New York, April 25, (UP) — President Roosevelt tonight made his bid for re-election on the simple plea of more food and bolter homes, in a speecli at the annual Jefferson Day dinner of National Deniocralic Club. The Prcsideit confounded experts who had gone to the gaily bedecked ballroom of Hotel Com¬ modore expecting him to appeal for parly unity.
To the Bast's leading Democrats the President pointed to Adminis¬ tration accomplishments and out¬ lined objectives yet to be nllained.
His utterances were intcrpreled by some politicians as indicating hia idea of the Democratic plat¬ form for 19.36, particularly when, amid  wild  clieering,  he  said:
"But results—results proven by facts and figures show thnt we are on our w-ny—very definitely on our »-ay. Higher wages for workers, more income for farmers, mean moro goods produced, more and better food eaten, fewer unemploy-

The President, accompanied to the dinner by Mrs. Roosevelt nnd his molher, Mrs. Sara Delano Rooscvell, swung Inlo aclion by en¬ dorsing Governor Herbert H. Leh¬ man for re-election and commend¬ ing him to the New York State electornle.

The tammany boys—and they were there a-plenty—cheered loud and long while genial Jim Farley looked on and beamed approval.

Death was due to complications.
Born In Walea, the daughter of William D. and Susanna Rodgers, on November 28, 184,1, the family came lo this country when Mrs. Davis was five years old. They sellled In Danville where she spent her childhood and girlhood days. Mrs. Davis was married In Ihal community lo John J.

Mr. Roosevelt, In praising tha Administralion of Governor Leh« man, predicted flatly thnt New York Slate would go Democratio in the ne.\t election.
Digressing from his prepared re< marks he said:
"VVe won 15 years ago. 10 yeara ago and five years ago. With Her* bert Lehman we will win again."
