By EDWARD W. PICKARD • Welter* New (paper Union. Josef Stalin IP UROPE’S situation, according to ^ seasoned observers, is settling down to a fight to the finish be tween Communism and Fascism, and the several na tions are lining up accordingly. Josef Stalin, Soviet dicta tor, is said to be convinced that an other great war is at hand and that Russia must act promptly to take what he considers her proper part in the conflict. The civil war in Spain and the developments therefrom are providing the fuel for starting the fire. Russia repeats her accusa tions against Germany and Italy of giving aid to the Spanish rebels; the Fascist governments deny the charges and make countercharges against Moscow; the Soviet govern ment appears to be on the point of quitting the committee for noninter vention in Spain and sending war munitions to the hard pressed radi cal government at Madrid. Dispatches from Moscow said Stalin had been informed by his military advisers that as few as 100 planes could settle the Spanish war in favor of the government and that Russia could send them almost immediately. The Russians already have sent five shiploads of food and clothing to Spain, these supplies having been bought by aubacnptioaa from Russian workers. Should Stalin decide to come out openly in aid of the leftist govern ment of Spam, the Nans and Fas cists may be counted on to re double their already existing cam- pai<n against Communism — and many aationo would soon be In volved In the quarrel, with poost- bdities that ternfjr thinking rt allay the he said in a by leg must the Foe the first Ume u> history.

Interesting flying item: Russia or ders in Baltimore a passenger “clip per” plane, to cost $1,000,000 and carry forty-four passengers, besides a crew of six. The plane, very fast, can go 4,000 miles without taking on fuel, a range that would bring it across the Atlantic nicely, if it ever wanted to come back with a load of explosives instead of passengers. The Irish Catholic hierarchy, sit ting at Maynooth College, Cardinal Macrory presiding, denounces com munism and persecution of the Catholic church in Spain, “mindful of Spain’s kindness to our ances tors.” On October 25 all Catholic churches in Ireland will take up collections “for the relief of Spanish Catholics.’’ Mexico, once as “Catho lic” as Ireland or any nation, sends, from its Chamber of Deputies, a message of sympathy to the Spxniah government at Madrid. and France no longer any protection for Bel la case of war. to the new Leopold, aaya all p ENERAL FRANCO, head of the Spanish insurgents, ordered the immediate taking of Madrid and each day the state of the defenders of the capital became more desper ate. The rebels closed in relent lessly, making effective use of bombing planes and armored tanks. President Manuel Azana and some of his cabinet ministers slipped out of Madrid and appeared in Barcelona. Ostensibly they were making a tour of the loyalist fronts, but the general opinion was that they had fled from the capital to make a “last stand” in Catalonia, which province always is radical Anyhow, Azana took over an office in the Catalan parliament building for himself and his secretarial staff. Senora Azana has quit Spain. She appeared in Toulouse, France, and departed for an unannounced des tination. T AMES COUZENS, independent *“* Republican senator from Mich igan, died in • Detroit hospital after a long illness and immediately following an operation to relieve uremic poisoning. He was sixty-four years old. Mr. Couzens was one of the wealthiest men in congress, h i s riches being a result of early as sociation with Henry Ford in the automobile business. He was twice elected mayor of Detroit end was appointed to the senate in 1>22 to fill out the unexpirod term of Sen ator Truman H. Newberry. Ae a senator he frequently disregarded party tinea, and since the iUBBOlH he New Deal Before the recent primary he an nounced that, though a candidate for renomination as a Republican, he intended to support Mr. Roose velt for re-election. This was an act of political suicide, and he was defeated by Wilber M. Brucker. Senator Couzens was noted for his great cpntributions to charity. The chief of these was the gift of prob ably $20,000,000 for the help of un fortunate children. He established the Children’s Fund of Michigan with an endowment of $10,000,000. D EACE within the ranks of the 1 American Federation of Labor has not yet been achieved, for the executive council of that body ad journed without settling the dispute between the Green and Lewis fac tions. The council will meet again Noyember 14 in Tampa, and two days later the federation will open its annual convention in that Florida city. If there are developments meanwhile, the council or federa tion may discuss the quarrel, ac cording to President Green. He said: “The matter is temporarily closed,” and added that so far as he knew, no peace overtures had been made by the CIO leaders. Mr. Green declared the ten suspended unions could not be admitted to the convention. M ERE scandal and gossip have no proper place in this de partment. but the “affaire Simp son.” as the French would term it, has progressed until it assumes world importance.

M would eventually be occupied by Princess Elizabeth, eldest daughter of the Duke of York, and this suc cession would bo decidedly popular with the people of England. The abdicating king might revtrt to the dukedom of Cornwall, which pro vides a net income of about $350,000. There is nothing in British law ta prevent the king from marrying whomsoever he pleases, but no ruler of the country since Henry VIII has wedded a commoner. Court gooalp in London says that Prime Minister Baldwin and the archbishop of Can terbury recently appealed to Ed ward for greater discretion in his relations with Mrs. Simpson and were hotly rebuffed by the king. English newspapers imposed on themselves a voluntary censorship in this affair, but it has been broken by the Sunday Referee which prints an article declaring the king “may marry by spring.” that this would result in postponement of the coro nation, and that tradesmen have been insuring themselves against such a delay. PS DA YU Yale university that this It Angell denies this, asserting that the budgetary situation was tha sole reason for allowing Davis' contract to lapse- "No abridgement of aca demic freedom or liberty of speech is involved in this case,” said An- gaD.

He said he thought it likely that teachers’ federation would take some action in his case. HEAT BRITAIN is determined to keep out of the Communist- Fascist conflict if possible. Sir Os wald Mosley and his black-shirted Fasc ist followers have been trying to stir up trouble in England and in con sequence the cabinet decided to put a ban on all political uni forms. It was ex pected that when parliament reassem bled the government would announce drastic action to suppress the Mosley ^ organization or at * Sir Oswald Mosley least to put a stop to its demon strations and parades in Leeds, Manchester and the east end of Lon don, where these Fascists like to create ugly feeling against Jews. The public demand in England for action against the Fascists has been strengthened by the revelation that Mosley takes his advice from Berlin and Rome. It is reported, and widely believed, that Mosley's tactics of deliberately leading his Blackshirts into Jewish communi ties are based on advice given him by Paul Joseph Goebbels, Hitler’s propaganda minister.

Vice President John N. Garner reported that he had received no contribu tions and made no expenditures. The Republican candidates, Gov. Alf M. Eandon and Col. Frank Knox, reported they had had no personal receipts nor expenditures since nomination, their campaigns being financed by the Republican national committee. In getting the nomination Landon received $163,480 and spent $164,572.

The government chargee the de fendant* hoped to reop “large re wards and sums of money” by pub lishing the “true story” of the faked solution of the celebrated case.

It has been ex pected that the league’s mandate commission would investigate these reports, and now Japan seeks to forestall such action by a formal report to the league in which she asserts she has “no fortifications, military or naval bases” in those islands. The Tokio government says it is scrupulously observing that part of the mandate which forbids the use of the islands for military purposes. Following establishment of a south seas bureau in April, 1932, all Japanese armed forces and men of war have been withdrawn gradually from the islands, the report says, adding that the natives of the is lands never have been subjected to military training. /CHARGES filed in Washington by ^ the federal trade commission accuse five trade associationc of at tempting to corner the hutomobile parts and accessories business.

PRIMARY TOPIC—When Paul Preached In a Schoolhouse. JUNIOR TOPIC—In a Schoolhouse In Ephesus. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC —Weapons of the Christian Soldier. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC —The Gospel Facing the Forces of Evil. War, war! The whole world is war-conscious jn our day. Nations are watching ofi^-sanother with sus picion, and in the meantime arming themselves for conflict. Hatred and suspicion are rife, and as long as sin rules the hearts of men we long in vain for peace, which cannot come until that day when the Prince of Peace himself shall reign- Yet every Christian hopes and works for the peaceful solution of the nations’ problems. Right thinking men do not want war be tween the peoples of the earth. But there is one warfare that we do seek to foster and promote. We encourage it, and as Christians make a holy resolve to battle to the end. That is the warfare against Satan and his hosts. As long as he rules in the hearts of men, and sin and wickedness are here, we say, “Fight on, my soul.” Christian life and service are pre sented in Scripture gs a fight, and we do well to learn the methods and the weapons of this great spirit ual conflict, not stressing a belhger- 1 ent note of strife against one an- : other, and particularly not between the divisions of God’s army in the earth, but standing shoulder to shoulder in the battle against the Evil One. Our lesson presents a picture of I. The Lord * Warrior (Acta 19:- 9-12). Paul, who is now oa his third missionary journey, comes again to Ephesus, the leading city of Asia Minor, and the center of the worship of the heathen goddess. Diana. He tarries there lor about three years. Like s goad tactician he began Ms campaign at a strategic pturt, the synagogue He brought forward j his God-given weapons, "reasoning and persuading ** Some he won.

God i gave bun II. A Might? Caoquest <w. It- 90). When a man’s profession of faith in Christ carries with It sn open forsaking of his confessed misdeeds l —a true change of life as well as a declaration of belief—there has been real dealing with God. Notice, that they burned the bad I books found in their homes, even I I though they were valued at thou sands of dollars. Christian, how many books or magazines sre there in your home now that minuter only to the lowest In your nature? Oh. yes. they may be “literature,** they may be in beautiful bindings; you may even read them “in the original” and regard the reading as cultural. But if they are bad books, are you ready to follow the Ephesians in destroying them? Finally we have from Paul's let ter to the Ephesians the glorious 1 presentation of the Christian’s HI. God-Given Weapons (Eph. 6:13-20). This is a familiar, but none the Yess rich and instructive, passage. We have space to note only that there are (1) five weapons of de fense; namely, the girdle of truth, the breastplate of righteousness, the shoes of peace, the shield of faith, and the helmet of salvation, and (2) one mighty weapon of offense, the sword of the Spirit—the Word of God. A glorious and im penetrable armor and equipment for battle! But it will do us not the slightest good unless we obey Paul’s ad monition and put it on. Christian, are you wearing and using “the whole armor of God”?
