Going On in National Affairs By DREW PEARSON and ROBERT S. ALLEN WASHINGTON The picture pic-ture of the international situation sit-uation placed before the president immediately after lis return to the White House was not as clear as it might have been. But out of the maze of reports re-ports cabled to the state department depart-ment or received verbally from diplomats returned from Europe, the following points stood out: 1. Italy is virtually 100 per cent behind .Mussolini. The original inertia of the working work-ing classes, the positive antipathy of the intellectuals, and the lukewarm luke-warm enthusiasm of the general staff now have been replaced by strong support. Some opposition may lurk beneath the surface, but it is negligible. And it will take either a major defeat or a protracted pro-tracted war to turn public sentiment senti-ment against II Duce. 2. British publie opinion has reached a pitch akin, to religious fervor in its demand that the league prevent war. As one high British diplomat put it, the people of England have substituted love of peace for love of the church. Peace has become a religion. They are willing to ,go to any lengths - even war -to back it up. This feeling probably represents seventy to eighty per cent of the -country. The rest, chiefly Tories, are equally behind the league though for. an entirely different reason. They fear an Italian empire em-pire near the Red Sea life-line of the British empire. 3. France will NOT support the British if it comes to a showdown against Italy. According to the report given Roosevelt, France is as anxious to keep out of war as the United States.

Rises CANCER CAN BE STOPPED SAY DOCTORS Wide Awake Public Needed To Suppress Dread Malady They Say SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 30 (U.R) Medical G-men today brought the nation the word that cancer, public enemy No. 1, can be suppressed. To purge the country of this 'gangster,' however, public pub-lic vigilance and cooperation must be given the legions of medicine medi-cine and surgery. ' Public cooperation was needed by the government agents who wiped out Dillinger, Floyd. Nelson and their mobsters. Similarly, cooperation co-operation is needed if the cam paign against cancer is to be successful. suc-cessful. Dr. Frank E. Adair, executive officer ,of the Memorial Hospital of New York City, said j at the 25th annual clinical con-i con-i gress of the American College of ! Surgeons. Most Cells "Law Abiding" "A proliferating cancer cell in the human body is nothing but a modern gangster," he said. "Just give it a chance to build up an organization and it will kill you. The only way to deal with gangsters gang-sters is to smash them at the outset out-set of their careers. The sooner the better. ''The majority of the body .elU are law-abiding. The cancer cell .g the normal cell gone wrong. It does not conform to rules, it is completely lawless; it grows wild- ty- If left to STOW without inter- ference, it eventually will kill the law-abiding cells and destroy the commonwealth which we call the body." Thus, he explained, it becomes necessary for the public to report suspicious circumstances at once. Once identified, the gansters can be mowed down with surgical instruments, in-struments, radium emanations and the X-ray, Dr. Adair said. ,Seed Is Necessary Dr. Bowman C. Cromwell of Chicago, director of the college's clinical research, emphasized the necessity for speed in apprehension apprehen-sion of the lawless body cells. Cumulative records of 25,000 cancer sufferers, he said, show that the disease is curable. They were treated and have remained well for periods ranging from five to 30 years, he said.

Santa Maria, 52, well known Los Angeles sheep buyer, was instantly killed last night when he was hurled from his car while rounding a curve 10 miles north of here. Maria was enroute from here to Cedar City. Witnesses of the accident ac-cident said his car struck the embankment em-bankment while making the curve and that the occupant was thrown free of the car, crashing on rocks along the highway. After the crash, the car burst into flames. Maria had been employed by the Cudahy Packing Company of Los Angeles for 19 years.

London reports they may attempt what was described as a "peace offensive" offen-sive" at Geneva. The two powers, in other words, were expected to dictate reasonable but strong terms to Mussolini, calling for a ' showdown in which he either j would have to accept or assume oven greater responsibility for the outlawed war. ! The overnight news from London Lon-don clarified the news from Paris yesterday of the new proposals drafted by French and British experts. ex-perts. Instead of being an optimistic opti-mistic 'trial balloon,' as it appeared ap-peared at first, Britain and France seem to have decided on their final terms to Mussolini. If he refuses, re-fuses, stern action can be taken at Geneva with the full moral support sup-port of most of the powers. There is a "hush hush" atmosphere atmos-phere about the possibility of an eventual naval blockade but the idea has not been dismissed, if the worst comes to the worst. There is no longer any doubt that France has fully pledged Britain her support sup-port if the step becomes necessary. neces-sary.

The league's strong action tomorrow may !be accompanied by the start of the drive.

The 70-foot bomber, with a wing spread of 100 feet, roared down the runway during government tests, arose falteringly to an altitude of 200 feet, then plunged to earth. Flames leaped from the craft a few seconds after it crashed. Badly Burned Standing nearby were several officers. Two of them, Lieutenants Lieuten-ants Leonard Harman and R. K. Gicbvanni, ran to the burning wreckage and dragged two of the imprisoned men to safety. The scorching flames burned their clothing and singed their arms and faces. Major Ployer Hill of the Army Air corps, was pulled from the wreckage dead. Death was caused by a skull fracture and burns. Leslie Tower, Seattle, Wash., chief test pilot of the Boeing company, com-pany, which built the great fighting fight-ing plane, also was helped from the twisted mass by the officers. He was less seriously hurt. The others, Lieut. Donald L. Putt, Wright Field; John Cutting, Cut-ting, Wright Field civilian observer, observ-er, and Mark H. Coogler, mechanic, me-chanic, were able to crawl from the bomber. All were taken to a hospital where it was said their injuries were not serious. Gen. A. W. Robins, chief of the material division of the aid corps, immediately appointed a board to investigate cause of the crash. The board is composed of Col. F. B. Lackland, Capt. J. M. Gillespie. Capt. L. B. Craigie and Capt. H. Z. Bogert. Gen. Robins declined to give a preliminary statement as to the cause of the crash. The Boeing bomber was one of three types being tested by the army along with aircraft built by the Glen L. Martin and Douglas Aircraft companies, it had been undergoing rigid tests here for several sev-eral weeks. The army was to select se-lect the bomber best suited for purchase in numbers. The Boeing plane was estimated to be worth $500,000. It was mostly of metal and had a maximum maxi-mum speed of 275 miles an hour. In addition to places for several machine guns, it could carry fifteen 1000-pound bombs. Its four motors were ,of 700-horsepower 700-horsepower each, and weighed 15 tons.
