President Roosevelts Plea for World Peace The following is the peace plea addressed by President Roosevelt to Hitler of Germany. A similar message was addressed to Mussolini of Italy. The peace plea reads: You realize, I am sure, that throughout the world hundreds of millions of human beings are living today in constant fear of a new war or even a series of wars. The existence of this fear and the possibility of such a conflict is of definite concern to the people of the United States for whom I speak, as it must also be to the peoples of the other nations of the entire west em hemisphere. All of them send you this message. Peaceful Methods know that any major war, even if On a it were to be confined to other con- addressedprevious occasion I have you in behalf of the settinents, must bear heavily on them during its continuance and also for generations to come. Because of the fact that after the acute tension in which the world has been living during the past few weeks there would seem to be at least a momentary relaxation because no troops are at this moment on the march this may be an opportune moment for me to Delegates Next Week The third annual convention of the Utah State Industrial Union Council will meet in Park City beginning 10 a. m., Wednesday, April 26, and will continue its sessions from day to day until the business coming before it has been finished. Closing session perhaps will be on Saturday. Delegates from local unions representing about 12,000 members in Utah will attend. Fraternal delegates from ladies flAO per anauss M. I. THOMPSON. L M. THOMPSON- - Parle City Will Be Host To Utah Cl. 0. Convention tlement of political, economic, and social problems by peaceful methods and without resort to arms. But the tide of events seems to have reverted to the threat of arms. If such threats continue, it seems inevitable that much of the world must become involved in common ruin. All the world, victor nations, vanquished nations and neutral nations, will suffer. I refuse to believe that the world is, of necessity, such a prisoner of destiny. On the contrary, it is clear that the leaders of great nations have it in their power to liberate their peoples from the disaster that impends. It is equally clear that in their own minds and in their own hearts the peoples themselves desire that their fears be ended. Situation Must Change It is, however, unfortunately necessary to take cognizance of recent facts. Three nations in Europe and one in Africa have seen their in- - auxiliaries, fraternal delegates from neighboring states and visit ors will also be in attendance. The largest units affiliated with the Utah State Council are the International Union of Mine, Mill and Smelter Workers, the United Mine Workers of America, the Oil Workers, the Steel Workers, and more than a score of industrial local unions from different sections of the state. Many Visitors Among the visitors who are expected to deliver addresses to the convention are: President Frank Hefferly of the Colorado Industrial Union Council and personal representative of President John L. Lewis of the C. I. 0.; President Ray Maid of the Wyoming Industrial Union Council; President John M. Ross of District 22, United Mine Workers of America; Reid Robinson of the International Union of Mine, Mill and Smelter Workers; James Morgan, regional director of the C. I. O.; Glen Gillespie, international board member of the Mine, Mill and Smelter Workers, and A. M. Davis, Utah district president of the Mine, Mill and Smelter Workers. Thursday will be the ladies day and it is expected that Mrs. Edward Scherer, president of Utah C. I. 0. womens auxiliaries will address the convention.
