Parley Plan of FDR Rejected By Hitler Chancellor Hitler Friday replied with Ironic argument and denial to President Roosevelt's peace pledge proposal, but said Germany was willing to exchange non-agguosaion pledges with her neighbors. He advised President Roosevelt in carefully chosen but respectful words that nations directly concerned should determine the matter and added 'that evidently no nation had asked for [ American pruicruiiuu against tiermany. Hitler served notice on Great Britain that he was denouncing the 1935 naval pact and told Poland that he considered the 1934 ten-year GermanPolish non-aggression pact was ended. He said Poland violated the pact by mobilizing troops when. Germany had no Intention of attacking her. Hitler pointedly asked Roosevelt to fulfill "the promises" or President Wilson "that German colonial claims! would receive just examination." The chancellor reminded Roosevelt i that Germany followed the American) lead in rejecting conferences and j cited the United States' refusal to join the League of Nations. He delved Into history to show that for hundreds oft years the United States and other nations settled their differences by arms stead of by conference. The German government viewed the speech as Hitler's pfflcial reply to the President's message and as such its text was handed to Raymbnd i H. Geist, United States charge d'affaires, for transmission to Washlngon. High quarters in Washington indicated Thursday that the speech as delivered orally would not be considered an adequate reply and that a written answer would be expected. It was announced that official notices of the denunciation of *the Anglo-German naval accord and the German-Polish non-aggression pact were delivered to the London and Warsaw governments. Specific assurances of peaceful Intent toward the United States andl the Americas generally were offered', by the German chancellor In a twohour and seventeen-mlnute oration' to the Reichstag. ?_? 1 . He reiterated Germany's demands for return of Iter war-lost colonies thus: "The only claim 1 have ever made and shall continue to make on ICiikland Is that for tho return of our colonies. Hut 1 a|ways have made it verytclear that thlH would not become -the cause of _a .military conflict." On this point he addressed Kosevelt: "I would appreciate It very much successors to the late President Wilson, if you, Mr. Roosevelt, as one of them were to devote yourself to seeing that the promises be at least redeemed on the basis of which Germany once laid down her arms and gave herself up to tho so-called victors. "I am thinking less or the Innumerable millions (of money) extorted from Germany as so-called reparations than of the territories stoleu from Germany. President Wilson solemnly pledged his word that Gorman colonial claims like all others would receive the same Just examination .... It would be a noble act if President Prauklln ltoosuvolt ware ta redeem Uie promts- _ os made by President Woodrow Wilson." STOP RUST... 4START PROFITS Your fertilizer man win ten you that cotton needs potash as well as nitrogen as a top-dresser. That's why he urges you to use a nitrogen-potash mixture. He can supply you nitrogen and NV POTASH in a quick-acting, well-balanced mixture. II you have already purchased straight nitrogen for top-dressing, he will suggest that you take some NV. . MURIATE or NV KAINIT to use with this when you chop out He knows that every year thousands of farmers top-dress with NV POTASH because it produces many extra pounds of Taluable seed cotton. He knows that extensive tests by leading experiment stations prove that extra potash produces a healthy, highyielding, high-quality crop. t St J* . For instance the . North Carolina Experiment Station top-dressed cotton, which had shown heavy Rust damage in the past with 50 to* 100 pounds of MURIATE or 125 to 250 pounds of KAINIT per acre. "Plats receiving the additional amount of potash produced larger yields, heavier seed, heavier bolls, more lint per seed# better grade, longer staple, stronger fibers and a higher percentage of normal fibers." When your fertilizer man advises you to STOP RUST and START PROFITS, he wants to help you make more money. Follow his advice. Topdress with NV POTASH this year* ' _ It Pays! -' ?- - N. V.
