War in Pacific | py the Associated Press. | BY the Associated Press.
MOSCOW, Dec. 12.-The Com
munist party newspaper Pravda, in
the first Russian comment on
United States-Japanese hostilities,
said today the Japanese aggressor
has plunged into a very hazardous
adventure which bodies him nothing
but defeat"
American reserves will grow while
Japan's reserves will become ex-
hausted, the newspaper predicted,
and that will decide the issue of
the war. Japan will indisputably
suffer defeat"
The comment was circulated by
Tass, the official Russian news
agency.
The war in the Pacific will I'M
doubtedly be long and protracted,
Pravda predicted, but the United
States possesses a tremendous su-
periority'' over Japan in production
capacity for the present war of
motors and reserves
Resources of Raw Materials.
In comparison with the United
States Japan is poor as regards
resources of raw materials and her
production machine cannot even
be compared with that of America.
1t is sufficient to point out that the
production capacity of American
metallurgy reaches nearly 81 900 600
tons of steel year, which is double
the capacity Of Germany, Italy and
the territories occupied by Fascism.
and Is times more than the produc-
ton capacity Of japanese metallurgy
which barely reaches 1000, 900 tons
q year"
In reserves of manpower there is
no comparison Pravda said for
Japan faces the united front of the
United States, Great Britain and
China.
Inc Russian newspaper said the
japanese ''treacherously and With
out warning attacked American
and British possessions and the
widespread simultaneous attack
.testlfled that the aggression had
been carefully prepared beforehand.
Talks Called Camoufiage.
lne negotiations which japanese
representatives conducted in Wash
mgton were manifestly intended to
camouhage preparations for this
treacherous attack. Japan resorted
TO the method with which the Soviet
people is familiar from experience
OF war against bloodthirsty Hitler,
who in the same treacherous man
neT. like bandit, attacked the Sow

The suddenness Of the premedi-
tated attack determined certain
temporary successes of the Japan
ese armed forces. The Americans
sustained rather serious losses. They
lost certain number of aircraft and

sustained losses. A not inconsider-
able number of -combatants be-

The newspaper said the results of !

blow at once at the most important |
strategic bases of the United States
in the Pacific as we'll as at the vital

However, Japan's initial sue
cesses can by no means predetermine
either the further course of mill

Pravda predicted a sharp in
tensifcation of activity on the

Without being formally at war
with Hitlerite Germany the United

LONDON, Dec. 2.-The Evening
Standard, published by Lord Beaver
brook, Minister of Aircraft Produc-
ton. urged "the people of the
United States" today to consider
giving Britain credits and further
help" in the Atlantic.
The paper asked the recruiting
of unused resources of the automo-
bile industry for aircraft manufac-
ture and for specific measures of
assistance in the operation of our
blockade" Victory, it said, depends
on the battle for America"
1t said the dominating fact of
this war" was that "Hitler's only
hope of victory resides in his power
to hold America out of the ring
when he gets us in a corner and
punmels us to pieces with his exist
ing superior resources of metal"
Hitler knows that" the Evening
Standard said. adding that instead
of giving up when President Roose-
welt was reelected, "he set to work
to turn the Presidents proud prom
ises to naught by striking at our
supply lines on the Atlantic by SUBJ

British Prime Minister Optimistic
In Report on Progress of War | pal features in this years World
War.
Now is the time to use our in
creasingly superior air strength to
strike hard and continually at the
home front in the Germany from
which so much evil has leaped out
upon the world and which is the
foundation of the whole enormous
German invasion of Russia.
Now, while the German armies
will be bleeding and burning up
their strength against the 1000
mile Russian line and when news
of casualties by the hundreds of
thousands Is streaming back to the
German Reich. Now is the time
to bring home to the German people
the wickedneSS of they rulers by
destroying under their very eyes
the factories and seaports on which
their war effort depends.
Mingles Terrible Threats
With His Winnings.
German propaganda has been
appealing to British public opinion
to put stop to these severe forms
of warfare. -
Herr Hitler himself has not taken
at all kindly to this treatment and
he has been good enough to mingle
terrible threats with his whin-
ingS. sss
Herr Hitler has even called into
question the humanity of these
grim developments of war. What a
pity this conversion did not take
place before he bombed Warsaw or
massacred 10000 Dutch folk in de-
fenSeless Rotterdam or wreaked
his cruel vengeance upon the open
city Of Belgrade.
In those days he used to boast
that for every ton of bombs we
dropped on Germany. he would
drop 10 times or even 100 times
as many on Britain.
But now it is the other way
around. We are in position to carry
into Germany many times the ton
mage of high explosives which he
can send here.
British Bombing Accuracy
Improves With Practice.
The accuracy of our bombing has
nearly doubled, and with continued
practice I expect it will improve
still more.
Moreover, at the same time our
method of dealing with his raiders
over here have more than repaid
the immense care and science be-
slowed upon them and the very
large scale upon which they are
applied.
During April we destroyed about
one-tenth of all raiding aircraft
which aSSailed our island whereas.
acting on a scale several times as
big, the losses we have suffered have
been proportionately far smaller
80 you will remember how German
propaganda films, thinking to ter
rorize neutral countries and glory
ing in their devastating violence,
were wont to show rows of great
German bombers being loaded up
with bombs, then casting showers of
bombs down upon defenseless towns
and villages, choking them in smoke
and flame.
All this was represented to neutral
countries as the German way of
making war All this was intended
to make the world believe resist
ance to German will was impossible
and subjugation and slavery was the
safest and easiest road.
Those days are gone we
have a long list of German cities
in which vital industries of the Ger
man war machine are established
All these it will be our stern duty
to deal with as we have already
dealt with Lubbock, with Rostock,
and half dozen important places.
German Population
Has Way Of Escape
The civil population of Germany
have, however, an easy way of
escape from these seventies. All
they have to do is to leave cities
where munition work is being car
ried on. Abandon their work and
60 out into the fields and watch
the home fires burning from a dis
tance.
In this way they may find time
for meditation and repentance
There they may remember the mil
lions of Russian women and chill
dren they have driven out to perish
in SHOWS and mass executions of
peasantry and prisoners of war
which in varying scales they are
inf1icting upon so many of the
ancient and famous peoples of Eu-
rope.
There they may remember that
it is the villainous Hitlerite regime
which is responsible for dragging
Germany through misery and
slaughter to ultimate ruin. And the
tyrant's overthrow is the first step
to world liberation.
We now wait in what is a stormy
lull, but still q lull before the hurri-
cane bursts again in it's fullest fury
on the Russian front. We cannot
tell when it will begin.
We have not so far seen any evi-
dence OF those great concentrations
OF German masses which usually
precede their large-scale offensive
They may have been successfully
concealed or may not yet have been
launched eastward, but it is now
May 10 and days are passing. We
send our SalutationS to the Rus
sian armies and we hope that the
thousands of tanks and airplanes
which have been carried to their
aid from Britain and America will
be a useful contribution to their
own magnificently developed NUM-
tions resources.
Threatens to Retaliate
For Use of Gas.
There, however, is one serious
matter which I must mention to
you. The Soviet government have
expressed to us the view that the
Germans in the desperation Of their
assault NAV make Use Of poisop |

BLOW YET TO COME His Statement of Present Conditions Failed to Give
Any Satisfaction | BY WEBB MILLER | United Press Staff Correspondent)
London, May 2. - (UP) - Prime Minister Neville Cham berlain today named aggres- sive Winston Churchill to supervise Great Britain's armed force in the war against Germany and called upon an angry, heckling House of Commons to close ranks and "set our teeth" in the face of imminent danger that Adolf Hitler will strike again.
Shouts of "resigni" and cries of "Who missed the Busp" interrupted Chamberlain as he sought to ex- plain to the House of Commons how Nazi aggression and superior air power had caused the failure of the Allied expeditionary campaign in central Norway.
That campaign, he contended, still is unfinished, the Norwegian government and King Haakon still are in Norway and the Allied powers will give the Norwegians all the aid possible as rapidly as possible.
But, he said, the British people apparently fail to realize the danger o fanother German blow, possibly directed against the British Isles, and the Allied leaders will not relax their precautions in other parts of Europe. Then he announced that Churchill, the fiery First Lord of the admiralty, henceforth would have responsibility for supervision of military operations from day to day.
His announcement and his ex- planation failed to satisfy the op- position and he immediately was assailed by opposition leaders for complacency in the face of "a re- verse" and Q "rebuff" in Norway. Churchill also was criticized as "too optimistic"
Attlee Attacks Him
Clement R. Attlee, labor leader, opened the counter attack on Chamberlain's explanation, charg- ing the government with having made misleading speeches and said that Chamberlains speech was "one of excuse and explanation"
"The withdrawals from Southern Norway were a rebuff and represent a setback" Attlee said.
"The prime minister's speech of last Thursday was over optimistic and over-complaoement. MT. Chur- chill is far too optimistic.
We have got to face the facts. This Is @ reverse.

BottIinq | (NEA Telephoto) | Washington, Jan. 4. (UP)-Allied air forces now smashing German cities and blasting an invasion path into western Europe are nearing victory in an epic battle for sky supremacy which will be "a major turning point in the war; Gen. H. H. Arnold asserted today.
In a triumphant report to Secre- tary Of War Henry L. Stimson, the U. s. Army air forces chief promised crushing aerial oIensives against all enemies on every front. He did not-as others have done recently say when he believd final victory would be achieved, but he stated:
Tt is now plaln that for us the beginning has ended: for our enemies, the end has begun"
Arnold, whose 54-page report cov- cred U. S. Air Force Organization and operations to Jan. 1, promised early elimination of the German Luftwaffe as an effective air force and ultimate destruction of Japanese industry by American planes swarm ing over the enemy's home islands from bases in China.

This, of course, is the ultra pessimistic view, but 1t is held in some high Anglo-Amerioan coun- cils, so cannot be ignored
The military mind points out that Russia is taking over the Balkans, next Iran, later Turkey all at a time when the western world is tired of war and when the weary American and British people take much the same attitude to- ward these distant areas that they did toward Austria and Czecho- slovakia in 1888.
But instead of the give em more room-and-they y'll-be-satisfied policy, there is a certain military school of thought which believes the time for showdown is right now
The military argue that today we are strong, the Russians relatively weak. They argue that we have exactly one year and half of time left. In one year and a half, the Russians will have perfected the atom bomb. Probably they al ready have the secret, but it will take 18 months to set up factories and produce it. |

this fearful combination Of

the war machine rumbles along
inevitably.
Prussianism-or HitleriSm-

practice in Austria. is an organ

whole nation is drunk with the
thought of 1t. To be a pacifiSt

famous editor of the London
Observer, has put it, is more
dangerous than to be a Jew.
THE fashion in which German

"War is not only inevitable.

Japan now holds powerful French Indo- Chinese naval bases, now Is one days steaming distance from the Dutch East Indies. Also British support is gone. Desperate ly pushed in Europe, they have no ships to speak of at Singapore. Also the support of Russia is gone. That country, once willing to cooperate with 50 submarines operating from Vladivostok, now is in the Axis pocket.
Finally, the embargo situation is completely reversed. Instead of the United States cutting off Japan's iron, oil, copper, cotton, Japan now is demanding all of the Dutch East Indies tin and r-without which American industry is almost paralyzed
So,s while the United States wait ed, the shoe was put on the other foot.
FINAL FRENCH LESSON Being a devoted friend of France, the United States now is adopting a French lesson even in dealing with France herself; also with her neigh bor Portugal.
One month ago, after Vichy an- nounced its open alignment with Hitler, Roosevelt prepared to send a message to Congress emphasizing the, importance of the Atlantic is- lands Azores. Cape Verde, Canar- ies) and of French West Africa as jumping off places to South Amer ica.
Simultaneously seven ships began loading U. s. marines at Quantco, Va, for secret landing on the Azores. The plan was to take these vital stepping stones in mid-Atlantic under the temporary protection of the United States.
But Roosevelt waited. Also the State Department, being gentle manly, queried the Portuguese Gov ernment. And the Portuguese said they would object strenuously to American Marines on the Azores. They said they would fight.
So Roosevelt continued waiting Later he referred to the Azores in his fireside chat. and Portugal viz orously protested. Now Portuguese newspapers are whipping up public opinion against the United States.
At about the same time certain French leaders familiar with Marti- nique informed Washington of their anxiety to cast off from Vichy, come under the protective friendship of the United Stteas. They described the people of Martinique as out of step with Vichy, thoroughly in step with the United States. sThey ,said |

CHICAGO.-It would be foolish to think that
American big business has forgiven or ever
will forgive the harassment which it has been
compelled to endure at the hands of the new
deal since the winter of 1888. These the
men who were called tories and copperheads,
words meaning traitor, who were insulted and
humiliated by inpudent little Shysters sent out
from Washington to administer the Labor Re-
lations act for the benefit of John L. Lewis
and the Communists of the CIO and the racke-
teers of the AFL. Their very bigness in busi-
resS was held to be proof of corruption and
fascism and they were charged with disloyalty
if they believed their country could and should
keep out of the war.
But now, they are the men who are running
the arsenal of democracy and putting to shame
the cheap and venal politics Of Washington,
where thousands of lawyers and party press
agents on the public payroll still carry on the
class war and are trying to renew their jobs
for four years after 1914. They know, as any
one can see, that but for big business dis
tinctive American institution, the United States
would lose this war and that because it is
SO big, the United States cannot lose. They
are satisfied that this time, big business can
not be accused of creating the war and shov-
ing the country into the fight for profits. The
proof of that is found in the very accusation
leveled against them little more than year
ago that they were loath to convert their
plants to war industries because it seemed
a profitless venture.
But forced into war by the enemy, big busi-
ness Is months later, is producing with all
that vast might and ingenuity which the new
deal tried to handcuff and suppress. These
are not new deal achievements, these crates
containing airplane engines which come out
of the plants by the bo-,car load, these tanks,
jeeps and guns and these flying Warships, by
the contribution of those traitorous tories and
copperheads to the destruction of a foe who
challenged country which they love as much
as Harry Hopkins does Felix Frankfurter
or Franklin D. Roosevelt, himself.
And if the Presidents sons are risking their
lives, so are the sons and brothers Of the men
of big business and many big businessmen,
themselves for, to them, this is not the new
deals private war but fight for the survival
of their country. It is still their country, too.
Who are they, by name? Some of them
you would know by name but many more you
never heard of. They do not try to conceal
their hatred of those who tried to raise class
war against them during the last 10 years
merely because they were good men at enor-
NOUS Jobs who took their rewards in preten-
tious homes and winter vacations when things
were rolling well at the plant and who finally
came to them to use their bigness against the
enemy.
be not identified with any political opinions
which they express, even on the subject of
the fourth term or of the unions which are
loudly garrulous against them still They are
afraid that someone in Washington will meddle
with their contracts or their materials or start
the propaganda mill going against them even
though the new deal makes politics and damns
for disruption those who oppose the campaign
for a fourth term. They are more concerned
with winning the war than with the internal
future of the country. They work to win, even
though the victorious United States should be
ruled again by the same men who, when the
war broke at Pearl Harbor, cried to them for
help.
The contrast between the men of big bust
ness and the political man of WASHINGTON is
shocking to observe. In the old Federal build
ing in Chicago tonight long lines of tired men
and women, four abreast were inching wearily
along after their work to file their income
tax returns, many of them for the first time.
1t was spectacle of bureaucratic waste
of time, fumbling and inefficiency as most
dealings of the people with the government
are. A factory which did business so badly
on pay night would have riots at the gates.
At the same time, in a hundred enormous
plants in Chicago and countless big business
factories in Detroit, Pittsburgh and Toledo
and everywhere in the industrial east and
Middle West, big business producing
weapons, vehicles, engines, steel box cars,
boats and submarines smoothly and in great
and steadily increasing quantity, hampered
more by the new deals payroll parasites than
py any other factor. The rate of production
already has passed Hitler's, and probably the
combined production of Hitler, Musslini and
Japan, and is increasing by the very hour.

The statement, released by U. 5. Third Army Headquarters, was made l by Manfred Rommel, 17-year- old son of the German Desert Fox. Young Rommell confirmed that | his father was wounded on July IT., 1914 at Livarot, France, during an American air raid, but said he was recovering after treatment in a Paris hospital for a skull fracture and shell splinters in his face.
Young Rommel said that on Oct. l IA, Gen. Maisel and Gen. Burgdorff visited his father.
Three quarters of an hour later he came from mothers room and told me he had just said goodbye to her-that Hitler had given him choice of poisoning himself or be- ing imprisoned and later condemn ed by a Peoples Court" the state ment said
Hitler informed him that in case of suicide nothing would happen to the family. On the contrary, he would take care of the family.
My father left the house dress led in uniform, with his Marshall's Staff We accompanied him to ear where the two Generals greet ed him with Heil Hitler!
Fifteen minutes later we were Ealled by telephone and informed my Father had been brought to a mili- tary hospital in Ulm by two Gener- hls, having died of a brain stroke"

THE UNION TIMES,
New Haven, Conn.
Dear Sir Two weeks ago I was nominated as candidate for alderman representing the ninth ward on the Republican ticket, and, after long and serious consideration I find it neces- sary to decline the nomination for the following reasons:
As trade unionist and leader ill New Haven and supporter of the pro- gressive youth movement in the city and state for many years, 1 firmly be- lieve that the primary issue of this election is the smashing of Hitler and Hitlerism both here and abroad.
We must have at this time the unity of all peoples and parties to support the foreign policy of our government i'll giving full aid to the brave peo- pies of Britain, China and the Soviet Union to drive the beast Hitler and his clicque off the face of the earth.
Since the foreign policy of both the state and local Republican parties is in doubt, therefore decline nomina- tion for alderman in the ninth ward and cannot support them in the com ing election but will support the trade union movement, and aid young peo- pie in gaining extensions of jobs and job training, education, health and recreation.

Military Experts Believe | Allied troops--even air fOrces--are held at arms length by distance and Soviet suspicion. The only other way to help Russia is by drawing from her front enough German troops-and particularly enough guns, airplanes and tanks to swing the pendulum of battle. And the only way to do that is to force the Germans to supply one other major front where fighting is intense.
That is the grim logic of events. And if this summer brings real danger of Russia cracking, that logis is likely to result in a des- perate yet carefully planned at- tempt to land an expedltionary force on the continent. WhateverI spot may be chosen, several have already been discussed. The im- mediate objective need not bel Berlin nor even Paris, to attain theI result desired. The prelude may be a series of Commando raids all along the coasts from Trond- helm to St. NaEaire, bumfuzzlingI the Germans and picking a soft spot. There, at the chosen mos ment, would be hurled a force that might ultimately total thirty di- visions, chosen largely from the two million shock troops now m the British Isles. Wherever they land, they would be accompanied by Free" forces-Norwegian, Dutchl Belgium, French.
U. s. TO SUPPLY
CRUSHING STRENGTH
The British would be encour- aged to bear the brunt by Ameri- can aid, future and present. This aid would be strongest in aircraft heavy and medium bombers nowl being flown across, fighters that soon may be. Crushing air strength would be needed, for it is estimated, that every Allied division would be opposed by two German divisionsl But one main reason why the| British Isles are the best Ameri- can base for attack is that we would ''have an umbrella over our heads the R.

But it might bring on 8 battld unprecedented in history. Thd Nazis might strike back through tlid air with a counter invasion oi Britain. Inside Germany, prettJ safe from the R. A.

Although. the air damage in- fiicted by the Nazi air force has been terrible, military observers now feel that it is insufficient to settle the issue while at the same time the shortage of British pi- lots is about to be relieved.
The article says that the Ger mans have been unable to de- stroy the British air force as they did Polands - on the ground. The article further says that an acute shortage of lubri- eating oil and aviation gasoline rather than foggy weather, are responsible for Hitler's failure to attempt a knockout blow.
Hitler's failure to deliver a knockout blow from the air in turn makes it very unlikely that he will attempt an invasion this winter. |

ting ourselves indefinitely to Londons maneuvers in
world politics.
We have given ample proof that we stand ready
as we have twice demonstrated-to give blood to
preserve the English-s speaking civilization and cul-
ture against mitarism and tyranny and dictator
ship.
we have gone to war twice to try to make
the world safe for democracy-safe for representa-
tive government, safe for nations to trade with one
another in good neg eghborlness and mutual respect.
But what we have not demonstrated-neither we
nor the British Governments of the last two decades
is that we have the Character to carry out our
pledges, to make our words come true
The first prerequisite to the attainment of Char
aeer is fundamental honesty. We must not only be
honest with other peoples but honest with ourselves
Why for instance, do we persist in telling our own
people that the League of Nations Covenant was
failure when it wasn't this document or its resolutions
or provisions that failed but the governments which,
due to politics and pacihsm at home refused to SUD-
port that League-we being the principal shirkers?
Why do we tell own youth that the trouble
last time was that we didn't march to Berlin in 1918
that we didn't drive home the lessons Of defeat?
Is that honest?
For anyone who will take the trouble to 20 back to
the tiles OF our newspapers in 1918 will discover that
the German Navy was completely defeated and

We also declared to the whole world the guilt of
the German leaders and wrote this into the Ver-
salles Treaty where all could read it.
These were the words. But what action did we
fail to take to make the words mean what they said?
We-that is, the Allies-imposed an impossible
reparations burden which the German people could
not pay, France took all the raw materials she
could extract from Germany as payment in kind"
and we left the struggling republic ready victim of
economic anarchy and chaos so that bv 1928 Ger
many went through her terrible inflation-bank-
ruptcy affecting the assets of 80, 100000 persons.
That was the year Hitlerism won it's first VIC
tory-not in 1888 when Hitler, as symbol of
nations desperate cropping for economic equb-
rum, assumed actual control. The German peo-
pie had sunk to the lowest point in economic
suffering. Any leader who promised any relief
thereafter was welcomed
And as Hitler that Germany needed more
territory, needed areas from which materials
could be stolen, the British and French Govern

Junior High School student pictured

in the form Of clippings from The

that 13 good-sized scrapbooks are
required to hold it. And he is still
adding to it.

records the vast amount Of death
and destruction spread by Hitler
and his henchmen, so Arthur has
entitled it "The War Up to Date. u

Arthur lives at 4707 Connecticut

Every year at this time boys and
girls old enough to work are tempted
to get jobs and keep them. This
year the temptation probably is
greater than ever before, because of
the war and the resulting demand
for even inexperienced help. If you
happen to be wrestling with this
temptation perhaps you will find
the strength to overcome it in this
letter from 15-year-old Powell
Junior High School boy who failed
to graduate with his classmates:
Il fell down on the job for two
reasons. One was sickness. That
I'm not going to mention again
because it was one of those un-
avoidable things. However, the sec
ond reason was that held an after
school job. I let measly So job
hold me back in my school work.
Though I needed the money, I
did not realize that to go to school
would. in the long run. mean a good
deal more money later. I was
throwing my life away for SO a week
I'm sure my life is worth more than
that.
Some fellows quit school to work.
Others, like myself, fail. They, too.
usually quit school eventually. I'm
not going to quit school. I'll make
up the work; III go to summer
school; I'll take the grade over.
But I won't quit.
III need that education the Dis
trict is providing for the postwar
world. That's not far off. I'll have
to take my place in the future
America. 1t is. the patriotic duty
of every American boy and girl to
take advantage Of every educational
facility available to them.
Liberty is holding her torch. She
gets tired, like every one else. She
needs our support. We. the future
America, must give it to her and
we'll need good knowledge to keep
that flame burning brightly. We've
got our schools. Let's take advan-
tage of them!"
Laurel Jean Brown. author of
today's prize winning poem, "A Sum-
mer Evening" writes:
Il think my hobby of poetry is
one of the most interesting that
any one can have. 1t doesn't take

Il have always enjoyed reading

THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER Il | Mingled good and evil are indi- cated in the horoscope for today. While the stars stimulate leaders and encourage sagacity there is a threatening sign for labor.
HEART AND HOME: This is a favorable date for starting new work or taking new positions The configuration is promising for the home and the family, both of which will be appreciated as never before. Contrast between conditions here and conditions in occupied coun- tries of Europe will be felt by even the least serious Americans. Young men in uniform will carry happy memories and will seek havens of peace in cottages and city dwell lings, wherever the latchstring is out; that should be at every door.
BUSINESS AFFAIRS: While the world watches each days terrible waste in the World War it is wise to read the stars for forecast of the time when peace is attained. With European cities destroyed, lands devastated and centers of in dustry in ruins it will be the task of the United States to carry. on as the savior of nations. Here fac tories and agriculture, expanded to meet war exigencies, will continue to produce magnificently for end- less needs. Now is the time to look forward with the light of astrology
NATIONAL ISSUES: Individffal sacrifice will become more and moro necessary from this date, but many selfish persons will question the ur- gency of self-denial in this land of abundance. Campaigns of edu- cation will be carried on by the press and the radio, but subtle fifth column suggestions will have eff feet upon certain minds. Astrolo- gers warn of trend toward ex- travagance among all classes. Prices of luxuries will rise, but there will be large sales of things not nec- essary in a war period.
INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS :. Entrance of Uranus into the sign of Gemini in August will continue to influence warning nations, each violently insisting that it has right on its side New tactics will be ev:- dent in Hitler's campaign. The war of nerves, due to Neptune's influ- |ence, will be less effective for the Axis while the Victory movement gathers influence in Nazi-occupied countries. Gradually a sense of the rights of man will gain among op- pressed victims of Hitler and the seeds of rebellion will germinate rapidly.
Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of year of pro- gress financially and nationally. Gains of many sorts will be made by men who serve their country.
Children born on this day should be fortunate in their life experi- ences. They should be highly intel ligent and personally attractive. Exponents of good will, they have ability to win success.

with Britain by negotiating for
use of Scandinavian ships which
would operate in sub-Arctic waters

The Russians completed a deal

Tanks Move on Railroad Station as Allies Plan
Train Schedules | BY LYNN HEINzERLING, | Associated Press War Correspondent
WITH THE FIFTH ARMY AT CASINO, March IT, AIS pm. today-Allied troops clawed their way up Monastery Hill late today and were less than 100 yards from the top, while the base of the hill in Cassinos southwest corner, still German held. smoked and shuddered from the assault of the New Zealanders.
Allied tanks moved again on the Cassino railroad station in the south and the east town station which has changed hands many times during the course of the bloody two months battle. But to- day, however. the fury of the at tack and the methodical way it was moving forward seemed to in- dicate that the next trains run from the station would be on an Allied schedule and not Hitler's. |

ton. is hitting hard against the
German lies" in broadcasts to Latin
American countries as well as to
Europe.
WRUL-World Radio University
Is stepping up the tempo OF It's battle
of the airvaves against the Nazis
in the Spanish and Portuguese
speaking new world, where the Ger
mans have been actively propagan-
dizine against the United States al
most since the day Adolf Hitler rose
to power.
There are nearly 2,000,00o radio
sets in Latin America capable OF
hearing American stations" Mr..
Lennon said. Since the war began
the Nazis have been able to export
only a few German-made sets to
the Western Hemisphere. The num-
ber of American-made sets Is IN
ereesing.
"The Germans used to sell sets IN
South America manufactured IN
vay to make it impossible for their
users to get any but Nazi statlons
and Nazi propaganda. That day Is
fast passing"
Virtues of Democracy Praised.
With the help of the American
Government, station WRUL gives
course to Latin Americans In the
theory of aviation. 1t teaches the
Morse telegraphic code. 1t conducts
q travel program which acquamts
Latin Americans with the beauty
spots and culture of our cities. IL
provides Latin Americans with SEMI
classical dinner music.
The speakers over the shortWaVe
radio from Boston interlard these
practical programs with direct rel
erences to the virtues OF the demo-
cratic system, which are subjected
to ceaseless attack from the radio
broadcasts out of Germany ar
ranged by Joseph Goebbels.
The station also provides South
America with a weekly summary OF
the American national defense Ell
fort. Mr.. Lennon and his aides
are able to keep abreast OF the Ger
man propaganda trend through the
monitoring of the Axis broadcasts
which the Federal Communications
Commission undertakes.
Mr.. Lennon approaches the work
of his station with the zeal Of a man
with a mission. The seed Of WRUL
was planted at the Versailles Peace
Conference of 1919, which 1t. Lem
mon, U. S. N. attended as President
wilson's radio operator. At Yer
sailles he saw the need for some
method of bringing the peoples OF
the world TO some understanding Of
each other.
A Cultural Weapon.
He dreamed of q radio station
which could serve as university for
the whole earth, and in the middle
i93Os his dream came true. WRUL
was established in Boston, In order
to have it near the great minds OF
Harvard and the Massachusetts, In
stitute of Technology.
When the war began, Mr.. Lem
mon turned his university into Q
cultural weapon for the democracies.
He entered the airwaves fight, d.
recting programs against the Axis
in every continent. Now he Is a
vice president OF the International
Business Machines Corp, as well as
president of WRUL, dividing his
time among New York, Boston and
Washington.
Mr. Lennon thought that teach
ing the English language would go
long way toward developing an un-
derstanding Of this country among
the descendants of the 1berlan
peoples living in Latin America.
Basic English has fundamental
vocabulary of $50 words, to which
are added 200 words to cover the
needs of any particular field.
Basic English is widely taught in
the Far East and among the Asiat-
les who learned our language
through that medium is a pretty
little Chinese girl, Pin Pin Tan.
She was graduated from Yenching
University in China and in 1889
from Radcliffe College, Boston.
Spanish Also Taught.
Pin Pin Tan organizes the WRUL
English course and various persons
at the station broadcast it. In
struction Is given on a regular
school basis. Once year the pupils
are given an examination over the
air and they send in their papers
for correction and marking.
The English lessons and the mes
sages of democracy inspire many
listening Latin Americans to for
ward suggestions to Boston about
improving the usefulness OF WRUL.
A Venezuelan sends to Boston
scripts for broadcasts aimed at ac-
quainting Latin-American countries
with each other because there is a
gulf of ignorance between, say, Co
lombia and Chile about the : two
nations and their ways.
In order to spread the good neigh
Dor spirit two ways. Mr.. Lennon
has a course teaching Spanish to
North Americans, which can be
heard in South America. There
the wife Of an American business
man has been learning Spanish by
tuning in WRUL. The station can
be heard by radios with short-wave
facilities on band 49, 604 mega
cycles. The programs are sent out
from two 50,000-watt transmitters
located at Heatherly Beach, Mass,
near Cape Cod. |

Mr.. Churchill had in mind, also,
the British crown colony of Hong
kong in southeastern China. 1t gave
up to the Japanese surrendered aft
er many days of radiant British de-
fense, but that did not dishearten the
British very much-"just one of those
things, you know, that have to be
taken in the stride. And Hongkong
may not be lost forever, as far as that
goes.
At Singapore, more than thousand
miles from Hongkong, the British
are staunchly holding their lines
against the Japanese aggressors. Lon
don does not yet concede the necessi-
ty of surrendering it, and, to make
doubly sure, has sent out new COM
mander to take charge of the de-
fense measures. There had been
charges of incompetence in the lead
ership of General Sir Robert Brooke
Popham, so Sir Henry Pownan was
sent to replace him.
Immediate worry about Singa-
pore does not seem necessary, for
the Japanese are still, in most
places, as much as three hundred
miles away from their objective.
For the moment the Japanese hold
the best hand in the Far East. But
how about their allies? Not so good,
ladies and gentlemen-not so reassur-
ingly good!
hCuC6kSs
In Russia the Germans are still on
the run so fast that modern history
knows of no episode with which to
compare this most humiliating flight;
they are abandoning position after po-
sition, and their lines are yielding at
every point along the front from the
farthest north to the Black Sea. There
seems to be no hope of recovering all
the lost territory, so Herr Hitler's
reputed nervousness has a very ade-
quate reason.
And in Libya, the situation is not
a whit better. Here, before the
merciless British fire, Germans and
Italians, more intimately joined in
defeat than ever in victory, are play
ing the game of the hare to such an
extent that there isn't much left of
German or Italian prestige in North
Africa.
No complaint about that situation
has been heard from the American
side of the Atlantic ocean. On the
contrary-there is a huge measure
of satisfaction. |

provided many of the details.
Baron Ion Mocsonyi Styrcea,
youthful and dashing marshal Of
the court and mystery man behind
the scenes, reenacted in the palace
itself some of the events of that
fateful evening. Other officers of
the court and members Of the gov
eminent helped me put details to-
gether while they were still fresh Ia
their minds.
This is the story as they gave It
to me:
No less than seven times, they
said, the king and his young collab-
orators had planned similar coups,
the first early in l942. In most of
these coups the dictator, Marshal
Ion Antonescu, friend of the Axis,
was to have been overthrown. In
two or three 1t was planned that he
should be forced to break with Ger
many. For one reason or another,
all failed, but the circle Of palace
plotters remained intact In spite of
everything the marshal could do to
break 1t up.
Michael Is Central Figure.

intrigue. the young king, kept his
young advisers close around him,
meanwhile provoking the German
minister by speaking English to

while preparations were in an early

He learned that the marshal was
planning to leave shortly for the
front-where he would be out of

On August % after q late lunch,
Michael sent for Antonescu. He
arrived an hour late, following to

The king waited In his comfortable
stucco residence behind the main
palace buildings. He stood in his
study, Gen. Constantin Sanatescu
beside him. Across the hall in an
other chamber sat Styrcea, Gregoire
Nicolescu Buzeti, young diplomat
destined to become foreign minister,
and 20-year-old Mirce Ionnitiu, the
kings secretary and constant COM
panion. In third room an officer
and three members of the kings
own palace battalion stood by.
Through window Michael
watched the hard-featured marshal
-the man who had kept him a vir-
tual prisoner for four years-walk
across the lawn from the palace
When Antonescu came in they shook
hands.
From room across the hall one
of the conspirators-chosen for the
task because his shoes didn't squeak
-tiptoed to a side door to listen.
With the stage thus set, one of
the most important events in Ro-
mania's history took place.
This is what happened Gas re-
ported by Michael HIMSELF:
Michael: 'I have a wire from
the front and the situation looks
disastrous. What are you going to
do about it7 Are you or are you
not going through with the ar
mistice?"
Conditions to Be Met.
Antonescu: YES. I am going
through with 1t, but there are some
conditions to be met. I want O.
guarantee from the Allies that they
will land in Romania and guaran-
tee it for us against the Russians"
Michael: THAT Is so absurd it
is not worth discussing. How do
you expect the Allies to guarantee
Us against their own allies?"
Antonescu: II will not move. II
necessary, I will retire to Transyl-
vania and fight there"
Michael: you will have to make
an armistice or resign. This time
you have gone too far"

Hitler Aide Loses
High Post Due
To Scandal | BASLE, Switzerland, Jan. 2.
Propaganda Minister Paul Joseph
Goebbels has been notified that
the price of his philandering with
Ida Baarova, beautiful Czech
motion picture actress, will be
demotion to district leadership Of
the Nazi party in Berlin.
This report reached here today.
An envoy of Reichsfuehrer Hit
Ter called on the minister at his
Wannsee home, where he Is con-
valescing from the effects of a
beating administered 10 days ago
by friends of Gustav Froelich,
Baarova's actor husband, who was
sent to concentration camp last
october after challenging DR..
GoebbelS to a duel.
Goebbels will not be deprived
Immediately of his ministerial
powers, as Hitler is anxious not to
damage party prestige by an alb
rupt change which would call for
some explanation to the German
people.
The clipping of Goebbels' wings
will take place gradually, but the
first Office of which he will be de-
prived, it was learned, will be that
of theater and motion picture
control.
1t was in his capacity as movie
czar that he met and became in
fstuated with Baarova several
months ago.
The control of the Nazi press
and broadcasting will pass bit by
bit from the propaganda ministry

Answer Depends GemOn MoEoe and RoOevs Allies Stot Offensive Agclnst SloefHed Line | BY THOMAS M. JOHNSON NEA Military writer | The gigantic battle of western Europe will climax in . struggle for "the worlds most gigantic fortl- fleatlohs," That's what Hitler call. cd the Slegfried Line or Westwall five years ago, and today his states ment is true if only because oil the other "Lines" from Maglnot to Mannerheim have been broken, Ma. ture and the Germans have made tho Westwall strong.
The first brick was laid by Hit. Ter in 1887 when he began to forti. fy the German frontier facing France, Luxemburg and Belgium. From Lake Constance, the Line followed the east bank of the Rhine through fSten, opposite Mul. house. From Kehl, opposite strass bourg, north to Lauterbourg, the Line crossed the river and went westward, protecting the saar coal fields. TO the northwest the sieg- fried Line extended beyond the Luxemburg border to north of Aachen. Thence, lately, Q northern extension has been rigged to join river lines and flooded areas in the Netherlands to the North Sea. This little Westwall" may or may not be the soft spot for the Allies that the Little Maglnot Line" was for the Germans"
ZONES or DEFENSE
The original Westwall really is several zones, beginning so m c 90 miles behind the 1889 German frontied. Each zone iS equally deep, First come miles sown with mines and booby.traps; then barbed wire, then deep ditcheS and fields of con- crete teeth or "tombstones" to catch tanks. All level ground that attack ing tanks or infantry might use iS surveyed for sweeping fire by artil. lery, rnortarS, i1lachine-guns and rifles from high ground crowned by steel and concrete structure call- cd pill-boxes, hunkers or caSemates, depending on their size and pur. pose.
All are mostly underground, but usually smaller than the Maqinot authorities say i7,ooo of these forti- fications are in the outpost line of one zone. German forts are Shal. lower than French forts in feet, but Qualifications are deeper in miles and number of zones than any oth. CT Line. Behind the last zone are anti-aircraft kites, balloons and guns, fixed and motorized: also fields for planes to protect garrisons of the underground defences, The whole idea Is to make the Wall not high, but SO thick that 1t cannot be crossed before counter-attacks drive back.
All this sounds formidable. But depth invites wars newest offen- sive tactic.vertical envelopment. Hangars can be built underground, but airstrips cannot. Their very ex' istence makes them a mark for the greatest airborne attack ever made.
The first bombs will not only knock out all possible anti-aircratt guns, but fringe the airstripS with craters. Into them paratroopers will drop setting up a defending peri- meter to beat off ground attack. Engineers will be sent in to repair |

1t seemed to me that our worthy but
as 1t was then, rather alien-spirited
foreign Office at home. must be more OF
less aware of the activities Of its little
brother in Bermuda, and as had
already been denouncing Lord Halifax
and Lord Lothian as misrepresenting
the general ideas of the British common
man to the American common man,
pursued my inquiries into this new piece
of diplomatic idiocy with alarm.
Raising Armed Force.
And here are the essential facts. ]
will not comment on them; they speak
for themselves. We British are allies OF
the Russians and we are bound in honor
for this war and after the war to stand
by them as stoutly as they are now
standing by U.s. This adventurer Is now
in Canada, raising an armed force to
save Germany from Bolshevism, and the
government is allowing that to happen.
He Is getting arms, while many of our
airfields are still very short of defense
armament.
His latest book, 'L'Aigle Prussien Sur
L'Allemagne" (The Prussian Eagle Over
Germany, is an impudent attempt on
the soundest Nazi lines to exploit the re-
lgious feelings and prejudices of the
French Canadians for his projected re-
vival of Germany. I'm spite of my short
stay in this country cannot doubt that
Quebec will play great role in the re-
construction of Europe wherein the
French spirit will have a large share.
:. And he has a great scheme for q
neutrality-suspicious. Of Germany, leav-
ing 1t in fragments to come together
again with thunderclap whenever they
have sufficiently recovered from their
coming defeat to be disposed for further
mischief. He goes on-forgive my vul-
garity-to lubricate the suckers. "It is
my duty as European, as German, as
Catholic, to demonstrate without relaxa-
ton that it will not suffice to conquer
Hitler and Nazi-ism" - "Prussianism
also is execrable.""
Authorities Acquiescent.
And this is going on now, and it must
be going on with the acquiescence Of our
authorities This Strasser movement is
to be called the Free German" move
ment. And when at last the break
comes, then, so as not to hurt the fine
feelings of the German people, already
deeply wounded by the writings of Lord
Vansittart, this Strasser army, enlarged
by that time by an ever-increasing ac-
cession OF Free Germans" pseudo
refugees and tourists, is to be conveyed
across to Berlin to protect it from the
unforgettabie indignity of being occu-
pied, as it might be otherwise, by Poles,
Palestinians, Greeks, Serbs and even
(PahD goddess Russians.
The Free Germans" will understand
their unfortunate fellow Germans, and,
except for a little cleaning-up Of the
early feuds of Strasser g. Co. against
Goering & Co. and Goebbels 81 Co..
and the like, and an appropriation Of
Protestant Prussia by a swarm Of care
fully selected Catholic peasants, nothing
will occur to arouse that deep resent
ment for defeat that, we are assured, is
one of the noblest of German character
istics.
But it may be that it is not the At
lantic powers who will get first to Ber-
lin, and it may be that peoples who have
learned at first hand what the German
considers suitable treatment for an in
vaded people will anticipate them.
Strasser's propaganda is incessant. He
writes articles in our advanced journals
upon the decay of morale in Germany
and the necessity of Otto Strasser. This
copy Of 'L'Aigle Prussien Sur L'Alle-
magne" before me is addressed to one
of them and it is autographed with a
flourish, Homage de Otto Strasser." ]"
Manifestly he must have supporters in
high places, or he would be disarmed
and put into concentration camp
forthwith.
No comment from me is necessary.
Merely I call attention to the fact that
this is going on while we are in alliance
with Russia, and that Russia is behaving
with the utmost punctilo toward U.s.

Cleveland Plain Dealer Gnde-

bas brought home to the American
people the danger that threatens
all free people. He has done much
to shatter the remnants OF what the
President called the now obvious
delusion that we of the United
States can safely permit the United
States to become lone island in
world dominated by the philosophy
of force With Hitler and Mussolini
spurning the ways of civilization, no
such islands can exist. The people,

on our fight
Louisville Courier Journal dnde-
pendnet Democratic) Mr.. Roosevelt
was in a realistic mood >. His
words were precise; his meaning un-
mistakable. We are going to help
the Allies with everything that We
have, for the simple and sure reason
that the future of our people is at
stake"
Pittsburgh Post Gazette (Repub-
lican: This tspeech) may not be
neutrality in strict sense, but the
fact is the overwhelming majority
in this country supports the Presi-
dents position fully
Hartford COurant (Republican) :
Perhaps the President will be able
to steer the Nation on a course that
will enable it to give full material
aid to the Allies without being
finally obliged to give it's men as
well. Yet once neutrality is aban-
doned, few rules are left to guide
either the nation that has given it
up or the nations against which
nom -belligerency is directed. The
road that the President has pointed
is tortuous and unmarked; it runs
into shadows and the end cannot
be deserted"

This thesis has been hotly con- troverted by isolationists, who blocked the plan to revise neutral ity. The late Senator William E. Borah attacked 1t, and said only a few weeks before the invasion of Poland that he had highly au- thoritative assurances Esaere would be no war.
But in Manchester, N. H., today, a leading Republican senator, who has been a bitter New Deal foe, will publicly back up Roosevelt's contention. Senator Styles Bridges will declare that there might not have been 8 war" had Congress followed Roosevelt's counsel.
Senator Bridges will say that Hitler began hostilities because he felt secure in the belief that the United States would not inter- fere," and that the factor that gave him this assurance was the Neutrality Act which put the U.

sentatives Of the Sudeten party
A foreign office spokesman said the
suggestions would be the governments
final concessions.
"All responsible elements OF the gov
ernment are filled with the conviction
that in this European crisis Czecho-
slovakia must demonstrate solidarity
with its allies and is obliged to make
every contribution consistent with the
national honor to uphold peace" he
said.
The cabinet reviewed the interna-
tional situation and heard reports Of
military developments in France. but
there was no indication whether mill
tary measures were discussed.
Hint Halfway Meeting.
Government circles hinted many of
the Sudetens' eight points were met
halfway. but it was believed demands
that Czechoslovakia abandon alliances
with France and Soviet Russia were
definitely refused 1t was also thought
Czechoslovakia was unwilling to grant
the Sudeten Germans greater voice in
determining military policy.
A well-informed source said Czecho-
slovakia had wanted to reorganize the
state on system of cantons, like Swift
zerland's, so that three alderman dis
tricts would get virtual autonomy.
The Sudeten Germans issued two
communiques. One declared that
only by speedy adoption" by the gov
ernment of the eight-point autonomy
program "can the situation be rem
edied." That was the first party state
ment since Konrad Henlein, the Sude-
ten leader, conferred with Adolf Hitler
last week
The second communique insisted the
government knew the party's position
before Henlein went to see Hitler in
Bavaria. This seemed to be move to
counteract the Czechoslovak argument
that Hitler. and not Henlein, deter
mined the Sudeten Germans stand.
Sudeten German circles expected
Henlein to report again to Hitler be-
fore the Fuehrer discusses foreign af-
fairs at the annual Nazi party con-
gress in Nurnberg, Germany. One YER
sion was that Hitlers mind was not
fully made up about the situation and
that he wanted to learn Czechoslovak
and British reaction to suggestions he
gave Henlein. |

BERLIN, Feb. 10.-Poland, IN the
words Of her NaN governor general,
is being ruled with more considera-
ton for social and material welfare
than ever before, but political op-
position lis luxury which cannot
be indulged at present"
Hans Frank, governor general for
the section of Poland occupied by
Germany but not annexed by the
Reich, reviewed charges from abroad
against his administration, IN an in
terview with $50 correspondents.
Pamphlets issued by the Polish
government exile in France and
by the Polish embassies In Rome and
Vatican City have charged Germany
with campaign Of mass extermina-
tion against the Poles and with a
long series of prosecutions.
Frank denied that the Germans
were shooting priests, sterilizing
Polish children, torturing Jews, or
executing students by the thou
sands" remarking that "such fam
tastic accusations merely can make
q philosopher smile"
Rigorous in Smashing Foes.
Frank, a ruddy-faced lawyer of
PROFESSIONAL mien, said he was rigor-
Gus in smashing any Polish move
ment or tendency which would
weaken the administration or give
enemies of Germany chance to
strike in the East.
Germany is at war, fighting Tor
its existence" he declared. 80 it Is
not to be supposed that the Reich
could extend liberties to the Poles
greater than those enjoyed by the
population of England, France OF
Germany.
But those who assail me from
abroad should know there Is
no hunger. there is not even any ra-
tioning of bread as in Germany
itself. They should know there is
not single concentration camp ir
all Poland"
In reply to charges from abroad
that the Poles health has beer
neglected, including reports o.
typhus outbreaks, he said, German
medical services in a few month!
gave free inoculations to 720,0O(
Jews, Ukrainians and Poles-a pro.
digious feat in medical administra'
ton.
Never in modern times has there
been less typhus than now II
disease ridden Poland"
May Not Listen to Radios.
Confirming that discipline wa!
strict against political opposition
Frank said Poles we're not permitted
to listen to radios or depart from
the prescribed paths of rectitude a:
laid down by Germany.
Because it is not military prac-
tice to restore prisoners before a wal
has ended" Frank said, only a few
Polish prisoners of war have beer
returned from Germany.
His government is not prosecuting
Jews, he declared, and has no spe-
cial attitude toward the Jewish
problem.
Asserting that thousands of Jew.
from Germany. Hungary, Slovakia
Rumania and Russia have applied
to enter Poland, Frank said incom-
ing Jews were not being sent tc
such regions as Lublin. and that
mot a single Jew has left my capt.
tai at Krakow"
He said he did not know whether
Lublin or some other area ever would
be set aside as Jewish state. but
that he saw no objection to such q
plan.
Where the newly-arrived Jews
go is largely decided by the Jewish
communities" which are operating
freely in every region, he said.
At the will of Hitler. Poland is te
remain "the home of the Jews" the
Governor said, adding that by tradi.
ton it seemed more Jewish thar
other European states.
Not a Part of Germany.
It must be remembered, however
the area is not a part of Germany
and has not been annexed as ha:
the Poznan district, he said.

This was the posthumous instruction
of Karl Marx, successfully followed by
Lenin in the Russian Revolution. It is
today the ruthless strategy Of Joseph
Stain in expanding the Soviet Unions
domination over Eastern Poland, Es-
tonia, Latvia and Lithuania, with the
prospect that he'will try to extend it to
Finland. Sweden and Norway.
Lenin joined with former enemies to
snatch control of the st. Petersburg gov.
ernment, but when his Bolsheviks had
obtained the upper hand he returned to
his lone-wolf tactics and later annihi-
lated his temporary allies. Stain has
joined Adolf Hitler for the control of
Eastern Europe. How will he treat Hitler
and Germany if he reaches his OBJ
jectives i'll the Baltic countries? Will he
turn then to Russia's neighbors on the
Black Sea, demanding the return of
Bessarabia from Rumania and the con-
troll OF the Dardanelles from Turkey?
Will he attempt to communize the rest
Of Europe? His character, his personal
history, his political philosophy all indi-
cate that the Stain Hitler rapproche-
ment cannot long endure. The entente
will continue as long as Stain finds it
profitable. In the past he has Joined
with others if such a move was to his
advantage; when he could he has
marched separately. distrustful Of all.
Ardent Communists have already
deifled Stain, the son of a peasant cob
bier, as "the most powerful man on our
planet" He is the absolute master of
17O,000000 people, courted yet feared by
every government in Europe. He is the
only modern ruler accountable to no one
an overwhelmingly superior position in
present-day politics OF force and threats
of force.
An Enigma Even in Russia.
1t is popular, even in Russia, to call
Stain an enigma. Until the 1917 revo-
luton he was merely one of Lenins
trusted professional revolutionaries,"
and there was time when even the
founder of Bolshevism could not recall
Stains family name of Djugasvili Until
Stain drove Trotsky into exile in 1928
he was barely known to the outside
world except to those Communists who
had learned of his great influence as
general secretary of the Russian party.
At last book has appeared in Eng
ish which strips much of the mystery
from Stain and the Communist move
ment. 1t is Boris Souvarine's Stain"
a 676-page. well-documented but preju-
diced study of the Red Gar of All the
Russias. Despite its bitter bias against
Stain in favor Of Trotsky, it must be ac-
cepted as the most complete single book
in English about the most extraordinary
revolutionary figure of recent times.
Souvarine, a founder of the French
Communist Party and former member
OF the Executive Committee of the Com
munist International, writes with au-
thority, and sometimes with first-hand
knowledge, of the epochal events which
shook the world more than two decades
ago and have placed the implacable
Stain in position where he alone was
able to determine whether the power and
the disposal of its former enemy, Nazi
Germany, or of its new but suspicious
friends, Great Britain and France.
Only Communist could have painted
with such infinite detail the theological
controversies, personal intrigues, intra-
Autobiography battles which led to
Stains subjugation of his associates and
exile or execution of his enemies The
portrait is so gruesome that it defeats its
manifest purpose, particularly when it
derides Stains intellectual powers, gives
him little or no credit for the effective
steps taken to further education among
the masses, and asserts that the 1885
constitution was merely vast diver
sion" to camouflage the "atrocious re-
preston" which was to follow.

On April 9 the Office of Price Admin istration announced that motor fuel would be rationed beginning May 15. An unnamed spokesman suggested that the bulk of civilians would be limited to from two to five gallons week. The next day Administrator Ickes and OPA Director Henderson decried this estimate. But when registrars were instructed on which type of ration card to give to motorists, the gauge was based two-to-Six gallons limitation per car.
Meanwhile reports reached the press on April 24 that, as of May 1, deliveries to filling stations would be cut from two- thirds of normal to half of normal. Ralph K. Davies, MT. Ickes' assistant, denied such step was contemplated. On May the War Production Board, at MT. IckeS' request, ordered the reduction at which Davies had Scoffed.
This is no isolated incident. It hap pens to be one suitable for discussion be- cause it stands on it's own feet without use of data presumed to be of either use or comfort to Hitler. It is the type of misunderstanding which, if Washington publicity is adequately overhauled, can be cleared up by competent newspaper reporters overnight. |

However, plans were taken up by
the Allies a few days later, Hitler
said, to pursue the northern cam
paign. Germany learned of the
plans, he declared, because Of the
"verbosity of that First Lord of the
Admiralty (Winston ChurchilD now
British Premier" and French Pre-
mier Reynaud.
Doubt Of Intention Removed.
The dispatch of mine layers to
Norwegian waters, he said, removed
any doubt of the British intention
to occupy Norway"
He then reviewed the opening
of the conflict in Norway. He said
Germany moved in only after the
British had tried in vain.
Successful execution was posi-
BILE only by the fine work Of the
three divisions of our forces, the
Navy, land forces and air force.
The air force, which was often
the only means of transport, sur
passed itself in every respect.
"The British fleet was finally
obliged to yield before the attacks
of German dive bombers and
evacuate. ="
"Air-landed troops" he said, pro-
vided the first occupation of many
places. He paid tribute to Nor
wegian troops saying they gave
very brave defense" At the same
time, he ridiculed the British troops
asserting they were poorly trained
and equipped and definitely infe-
rior in every respect"
The word Narvik will be immor-
talized as symbol of the National
Socialist Reich" he declared.
1T is a pity that Chamberlain S

Discusses Low Countries.
Turning from Norway. he took up
the subject of the Low Country cam
paign. Germany, he said, had few
troops on the Belgian frontier, while
large concentrations of French
tanks and troops showed France was
preparing to move against Germany
through Belgium.
There was such q concentration
Of signs pointing to a movement OF
French and British troops through
Belgium and Holland that I dis
cussed the developments with the
army and made minute plans to
offset such an attack"
Telephone messages between Lon
don and Paris showed the British
and French were preparing to attack
early in May, he said. and so Il
gave orders to attack" on May 10.
He said the startegy of the Allies
including their concentration of
troops, made the German task
troops. He recited in detail the
plan OF operations which ultimately
was carried out.
Paying tribute again to the Ger
man soldiers, he said the soldiers OF
the new provinces taken into the
Reich showed equal valor and thus
helped make possible "the glorious
victory"
"The command of the new Ger
many Army" he said, must be
considered much better than the
command of yesterday"
On the 10th of May, two Ger.
man armies were ready for the
attack to occupy Holland and
to march against Antwerp"
Here again he detailed the move
ments Of the armies in their
"break-through" operations in the
north and south. It was evident,
he said, that success of the oper-
ations would mean the complete
defeat Of the British and French
forces in Northern France.
Had Not Planned to Take Paris.
Naming generals in charge of
units participating, he brought
cheers from the Reichstag in each
case. The taking of Paris, he said
was not envisioned in the original
plans

aviatrix had said, and she was con-
cerned primarily with keeping this
country at peace.
"Bit Of . Crackpot."
Declaring that Miss ingalls, record
showed her to be a woman of "cour-
age, ambition and a tremendous
amount Of egotism," the defense at
torney added:
"She also has shown herself to be
a bit of a crackpot. In fact. this
woman is a fanatic in carrying out
what she believes"
Mr.. Reilly charged the r. B. I.
with keeping Miss ingalls, under
interrogation steadily for "A hours
without sleep. While the Govern
ment, he added, had ridiculed her
claim to have been a one-person
nter-espionage service, she al
ways has done things alone, he
pointed out. He cited her long
flight over the Andes, the first
woman to achieve that.
Speaking of Miss ingalls, ad-
mitted statements expressing ad-
miration for what Hitler had done
for the German people. Mr.. Reilly
said:
"A lot Of people Of Irish blood
think that Hitler Is no worse than
Cromwell war"
A Mata Hari. She Says.
The noted flyer was on the witness
stand most of yesterdays session,
and she insisted vehemently that,
although she was on the payroll OF
the German Embassy for 81 days,
her only motive was to obtain con-
fidential information which might
be of service to the United States
Government in its effort to thwart
spies and subversive elements.
Il saw myself as Mata Hari,"
said Miss ingalls,. LAS an interna-
tional spy, let us say"
Miss ingalls, earlier had described
herself, in letters and on the stand,
as 'incurably romantic" She
pointed to her adventurous career as
an aviatrix, which during II years
had brought her many exciting ex-
periences and enabled her to hang
up a number Of records.
The flyer conceded, during her
testimony, that some of the anti
British assertions in correspondence
presented by the Government rep
resented her actual views at the
time, although these sentiments had
been emphasized to convince the
German Embassy official with whom
she was In contact.
Wanted u. S. to Shun War.
Referring to several letters to
Hans Thomson, then Charge DAT
faires of the German Embassy, con-
tanning violent attacks on Britain
and exultation at German victories,
Miss ingalls, said:
THAT was the way I felt at the
time. I didn't want to see us get
into this war. AL my friends were
pro-British and there was nothing
I could do about it. And I wanted
to impress DR.. Thomson that I was
sincerely interested in the German
cause"
The flyer admitted she had quoted
Hitler's "Mein Kampf" In some of
her speeches, explaining: HE was
feeding fire to the German people
I thought it was better to feed fire
to the American people If we were
to defend ourselves"
She said she also had quoted
Churchill, Lincoln, Emerson and
Nietzsche in her speeches for the
America First Committee. |

The diplomatic effects already were visible in one key capital Tokyo. The Japanese third-partner in the Berlin Rome Tokyo triangle were depressed and disheartened by the event. They had regarded Hess as one of their special friends in Berlin and could not understand why he should have wanted to es- cape from Germany to Britain.
Light May Come
Some light may be cast on the mystery after the British have completed their extensive question: Ing of Hess, now underway under the leadership of Tvone Kirkpatrick, a foreign office expert who is c per- sonal friend of the Nazi leader. It was suggested that Churchill may make a statement on the case ct an early date. 4r
On the war front the night was marked by 0 sharp reduction In German Air attacks on Britain. The Royal Air Force bombed Mann helm, Cologne, Coblenz, Ostend and Dunkirk. North Africa was quiet and there was little action in 1raq.
There was trouble in Shanghai where U. s. marines were called out after 0 battle between settlement police and pro-japanese Chinese police in which an American and nine others were wounded.
The British Admiralty reported that shipping losses since start of the war have been 6,l27,67 tons, an average of 3o6,3s4 per month. For the last year losses have been 4,- 734,407, an average of 394,634 per month. The Admiralty figures were up 49,343 tons over those an- flounced only Saturday by the inin- istry of information for the same period.
Something Unreal
Some weight was lent this hypo- thesis by the statement in Berlin of the semi-ofiicial Nazl organ, National Socialist Korrespondenz, which asserted that papers left be- hind by Hess indicated he believed that-"owing to previous personal contacts"--he could reach an un- derstanding with the British.
In the background there was an- other factor lending additional cred- ibility to this strange possibility.
That is the fact that Hitler seemed by hints seeping through from several European capitals-to be engaged at the moment in Q mighty new effort to achieve his long, sought objective of e united ,or- ganized new order" In Europe.
This Nazi ambition has been at- tempted, 1t Is believed, before notably last autumn. But at that time Germany found 1t impossible to bring Spain and the Vichy regime of France into the united order which was designed to con. front Britain with amalgamated Europe dominated by the NazI hierarchy. |

Roman Emperor | Boston, April 10-(UP)-Bishop Fan Stylian Noli, first ruler of inde- pendent Albania, said today that under no circumstance" would he serve as head of a new, Italian sponsored Albanian state.
Informed of reports in Albanian quarters at Belgrade, Jugoslavia, that he had been suggested as head of the state over which Italy was eX- pected to declare protectorate, the self-exiled former ruler said:
"such reports cannot he based on fact"
The onetime minister of Albania, busted by King Fog I in 1925, would not discuss the reasons for his definite refusal to act as a "puppet for Italy," but in prior interviews he had voiced disapproval of Aog's pro- Italian policy.
Best Ally of Italy
Only yesterday, the 57-year-old Harvard-educated bishop said that Fog was lone of Italy's best allies" until "brutally" attacked, and that, with the kings pro-Italian leanings, Mussolini could have asked and re- ceived anything short of complete surrender of Albanian independ- ence."

A third threat is to the northern supply ports of Murmansk and Archangel. The recent conferences between Hitler and Baron Manner helm of Finland were interpreted by Allied sources as a probable prelude to drive in the Arctic.

Some military experts regard the Japanese incursion nito the western Aleutians as connected with the Si- terian project and to protect Japan from attack by the United Statse rather than preliminary to an at- tempt to invade North America.

for pause.
It was at that time that Admiral
William D. Leahy made the observa-

years."
Traced to Jap Agents.
Many of the protests against 60

While many of the letters now

by sincere people, 1t is nonetheless
to the advantage Of the Axis to help
stir up the current Darlan row.
The French admiral, whatever his
past sins while serving the ham
strung Vichy state, did not turn over
the French feet to the Nazis. More
positively he has presented the
Allies with an important portion
OF an entire continent, strategically
OF vital Importance to the Allies.
This Is, of course, highly displeas-
ing to Herr Hitler.
There could be serious conse-
quences for Gen. Eisenhower and
his troops should the United States
Government be forced to disavow
Darlan's cooperation in North At
RIGA.
Purists Can't Accept Darlan.
The theological purists, however,
who are very influential in WASH
ington, have refused to swallow a
man who for two years appeared to
follow the Nazi theology. They see
in the acceptance of Darlan into
the American fold a dangerous
precedent and are asking fearfully
already whether the next man to
become an associate of the Allies
may no. be Generalissimo Francisco
Franco himself.
To this the hard-headed military
men, who have the hardest war in
history to plan and fight, reply that
they are not in a position to look
any gift horse in the mouth, or to
start giving political "Wasserman
tests to individuals who can con-
tribute to the winning of the war.
They point out further that Russia,
one of our staunchest allies today,
was the ally of Herr Hitler less
than two years ago.
If Gen. Eisenhower had insisted
on keeping Darlan under two
years period of observation before
certifying him as loyal, then the
North African occupation might well
have been accompanied by long
casualty lists full of the names of
young Americans.

Report of Former Envoy to Germany Given to
Public Today | By LYLE C. WILSON | NCHItcu EEtSS Stdh SOAACSpoiiuChIJ
Washington, Feb. 21-(UP)--Unit- ed States foreign policy, based pri- marily on low-tariff economies and good neighbor' relationships but dominated just now by big navy defense program, stands unchanged today by spectacular European poli- tical events. Officials did not care to comment beyond that on the biz diplomatic week end.
Reichsfuehrer Adolf Hitlers re- statement of Nazi expansion aims should not, however, have surprised the state department in view of re- ports understood to have been sub- mitted by William E. Dodd before he resigned as United States ambas- sador to Germany.
Dodd's reports, possibly discounted by the state department because of his anti-Nazi sympathieS, are be- lieved to have fixed the limits of Hitler,s European ambitions consid- erably beyond the scope of Der Feuhrer's address yesterday to the Reichstag in Berlin.

Tunisia and Stalingrad
Great German Disasters.
This toll was taken by the Allied
air force and by the British subms
rines, cruisers, destroyers and motor
torpedo boats.
This British naval force at the
same time caused an impassab BILE
barrier between the enemy in Tunisia
and all prospects of escape. During
the latter phases the fixed patrol was
| maintained in force which would
have prevented any attempt at
escape except by individuals.
In fact, believe only 638 persons
have escaped, and these, for most
part, by air on this scene of
surrender.
One cannot doubt that both Stall
1ngrad and Tunisia are the greatest
military disasters that have ever
befallen Germany in all the wars she
has made, and they are many.
There Is no doubt from the state
ments Of captured generals that
Hitler expected his Tunisian army
to hold out at least till August and
that this was the view and intention
OF the German high command
The suddenness Of the COLLAPSE of
these great numbers of brave and
skillful fighting men, with every
form of excellent equipment, must be
regarded as significant and in a
sense characteristic OF the German
psychology. which was shown after
Jena and also at the very end of the
last war.
Though this fact should certainly
be noted and weighed, no undue ex-
pectations should be based upon it.
We are prepared to win this war by
hard lighting and if necessary by
hard fighting alone.
In years Of peace peoples of the
British Commonwealth and those of
the United States were an easy
going folk, wishing to live a free
life, with active politics and other
opportunities of innocent diversion
and OF national self-improvement.
They do not covet anything from
others, perhaps because they have
enough themselves. and they have
even failed to keep a good lookout
upon their own safety.

Such nations do not become ex-
