NEWS'
Of The DAY
(By The Associated Press)
Blacksmith May Plead
Guilty To Murder Charge
MONROE, Mich., Jan. 21.-( ')-
Alcide (Frenchy) Benoit, 24-year-old
blacksmith accused of killing State
Policeman Richards F. Hammond
and handcuffing him to a mail box
post, chose in court today to fight
the charge, but there were indications
he might change his mind.
Orva Jackson, state police ser-
geant, said Benoit was ready to gol
into circuit court tomorrow morning i
at 10 a.m. and plead guilty to a
murder charge.
Captured last night while attempt-
ing to run a state police blockade
in a stolen farm truck, Benoit was
quoted by Prosecutor Francis C.
Ready as admitting in an oral state-
ment that he shot Trooper Ham-
mond Tuesday nightS
In municipal court today he stood
handcuffed to a .state police officer
and spoke just two words, "not
guilty," in response to a question by
Judge John P. Foucher. He ap-
peared only mildly interested
Madrid's Populace In
Good Health, League Told
GENEVA, Jan. 21.-(IP)-Madrid's
populace is in good health and is
adequately nourished despite a great
meat shortage, a League of Nations
group of health experts reported to-'
day as the council began its 96th ses-
sion.
A major subject on the conference]
agenda was that of providing raw
materials for Germany.
It was believed the council, with
the support of the United States and
Japan, both non-members, would
name a committee to survey the
whole problem of economic improve-
ment throughout the world.

'azi Doctrine Heldl
Unsimilar To Jews'
(Continued from Page 1)
through interpretation and discus-
sion of the original doctrines of
Moses, are seen, in the Torah (the
complete and ever-changing body ofi
Jewish law) to exemplify this."
Discusses Marriage
Furthermore, the basis of the He-
brew tradition which frowns on the
marriage of a Jew to a gentile, Dr.,
Heller maintained, "is not biological
(as the doctrine set forth by the
German Nazis) but religious. The'
exponents of Judaism," he said, "be-
ing in numbers and eager to preserve;
their religious heritage amidst an en-
vironment which is dominantly non-j
Jewish, are prone to deem such a
marriage as leading to the immediate]
or ultimate abjuration of their faith.j
One cannot, however, say that Jews
stigmatize a Jew who has married
a non-Jew and has accepted the oth-
er's faith as inferior and ban their
children, even to, the fourth genera-
tion, as racial mongrels."
Biblical testimony, he asserted,
rather than supporting a belief in the
Innate moral excellence of the Jews,
is filled with sections which deal
'with the depravities of Jews and if
gotten up by a clever anti-Semetic
would make many of the contempor-
ary anti-Jewish utterances look mild
and charitable."
Urges Better Understanding
To the assertions of Nazis that'
their antipathy to Jews results from,
a conflict with their respective racial
claims, Dr. Heller retorted:
"I know no Jewry which was as
eager to identify itself with the na-
tional and cultural life of the people
amongst whom they dwelt as were
the German Jew in pre-Hitler days."}
He urged a better understanding
by people of not only Judaism but of
all religions, even advocating a uni-
versity curricula in the philosophy of
religion.j

trinaire philosophies, Professor Stan-
ton said, as from the fact that Rus-
sians who early in the life of the
Republic attempted to introduce'
communistic principles were quickly
"liquidated."
"They were invariably found mur-
dered in Turkish villages whereupon
the authorities placed the blame on
the inability of the ignorant peasants
to distinguish the communists from
brigands. The police always arrived!
too late."
Death Is Penalty
Professor Stanton pointed out that
like the other fascist nations whichl
imprison and execute dissenters and
opponents of their major policies,
Turkey punishes with death the or-
ganizers of all movements against
Westernization of the country.
That has been the greatest issue in
Turkey, he said, since the young!
Turk movement was started, and
that is practically the only issue up-
on which there is any large diver-
gence of opinion in Turkey today. But
he did not think the opposition to;
Westernization either powerful or
important.
Illiteracy Main Reason
In Professor Stanton's opinion the
lack of large opposition is mainly due
to the backwardness of the nation,j
the large degree of illiteracy, and the
fact that most of the steps to de-j
crease the number of illiterates, and
build a middle class and proletariat
have come since the young Turk rev-
olution.
"Anyway," he said, "the Turks
aren't tempermentally disobedient."

following day Shirl Crossman, the
absent student, and also the vocal
mainstay in Bob Steinle's band, re-
ceived a long-distance telephone call
from New York. Her irate parents
wanted to know why she was skipping
classes.

but that public opinion also is feared
is evidenced by the delay in shutting
off heat and water after the sit-downI
period began.
Governor Murphy's statement
protnising state relief for the strik-
ers was commended by Professor Mc-
Farlan as "playing politics in the
good sense of the word." That de-
cision, he explained, meant that the
action which the majority of the,
people in the state wanted could
be taken, and taken now, instead of
shortly before an election campaign.I
Irrespective of what kind of settle-
ment is made to the strike, he de-
clared, the history of American labor
has been something entirely new,

opinion,
