far and the two families with the aid
of scores of yijjagers and farmers removed
the furnishings from the first
floor.
The building was completely
destroyed. The slate roof slid into
the yard on all sides of the burned
structure. The loss is partially covered

\Yuuhington, March X Representative
Juntos P. Richards of South Carolina
of (ho Hoiiho Foreign Affairs
committee today asserted In an address
before tho Annua) Regional Convontlon
of tho Young Democrats of
Pennsylvania ai Willlamsport, Pa.,
that " for democracy to exist on tho
faoo of (Ito earth it must prove its
right to exist by abandonment of a
policy of appeasement toward Dictator*
who have embarked on an avowed
program to destroy tho Democratic
ideal everywhere".
Richards assorted that "as for tho
Democratic Party, the party of tho
people In this country, it has proven
its right to he called tho dominant
party of the United States bocausa it
has mot and conquered a groat
depression; it has chartered now highways
when the fearful cried, hold
hack!; it has explored and developed
within tho Constitution new Mtannels
of benefit to tho musses, in the face
of tho opposition of a Republican party
always bent on construing that
great document in the interest of the
chosen few; It ha* proved to the
Communists, Nazis ami other subversive
elements in our midst that a
detnoearcy can sol vp Its economic
problems where there is a will to
solve them.
"Under 'tho leadership of a great*president,
wo havo mado democracy
function effocttlvoly here. We cam
not guarantee that it will so function
elsewhere. We have no right to impose
our views on other peoples and
other nations. Rut we do havo the
inalienable right,.yea a duty, to defend
ourselves against any foreign dictator
or power seeking ultimately to
destroy us hero. Hitler has openly
said that democracies must go?that
there is no placo for our ideal government
and his In the same world.
We accept tho challenge, wo are getting
ready. We will, If necqpsary.
meet airplane with airpjane, tank with
tank, bomb with bomb,'cold steel with
hot steel?but always hoping that war
will not conto. We are not obligated
to win England's wars for her. We
need expect little appreciation, if we
do so. But we are foolish if we do
not help In evory way, short of war,
any democracy standing between
Hitler and ourselves. That's where
England stands today.
"If we are adequately prepared, war
may not come. If wo help supply
England, Greece and China, war may
not come. If we do neither, sooner
or later we boar the brunt of battle
alone. Take your choicb. but before
doing so remember that Belgium,
Holland, Denmark, Norway, Czechoslovakia,
Hungary, Rumania, all adopted
nn appeasement policy with Hitler.
Where are those democracies now?"
