According to some women we’ve talked with and who are radio fans the Manchester program over a Hartford station has tough competition in that it ia aired at the same time that "Young Dr. Malone” is on another station. The "Malone” serial atory. It seems. Is very popular with the women ILsteneis, while the local program is inclined to be dull, they say. One day recently the local program hoates.s referred to the Nathan Hale school and the Barnard school as both being on Spruce street. Perhaps the sponsors could induce the station management to give them a bet­ter Spot and thus avoid the serial story competition.

As a matter of fact apme customers hs've been insulting to the dealers when Informed of the cut. It strikes us that such an attitude Is extremely unfair to the milkmen. .Naturally they are in business to sell milk and they intend to sell as much as they can under existing circumstances. ,

The reduction in supply certainly isn’t of their choosing —so why take it out on them?

London, Nov. 8.—(/P)— The Red Army was rolling swift­ly toward the Rumanian bor­der today after taking the vital rail junction of Fastov, 35 miles southwest of cap­tured Kiev, and thus snap­ping the principal rail link between German forces in the northern Ukraine . and the Nazix atill battling at Krivoi Rog. A Reutera dispatch from Moacow aaid the Ruaaiana . already had driven 10 miles on beyond Fastov and were engaged in heavy fight­ing with Nazi armored re.servea rushed Into the breach.Threaten* to CTrumble Resistance

The mighty push, moving along at a speed of 24 miles a day, threatened to crumble Nazi re­sistance in the Dnieper bend and raised the possibility of trapping huge number* of the beleaguered Germans.

Seizing trainloads of undam­aged German equipment at Fas- tev, whose capture was hailed in Moscow with 124-gun salvoes, Russian tank and infantry units also were reported to have swept up 70 towns and hamlets as they lunged , toward Rumania, one of the Nazt\satellites which Premier Joseph Stkljn said Saturday wa. ‘ 'anxious to ftqd a way out of the war.” \

In the Crimea, far to the south­east, the Russians said they killed1.000 Germans in repulsing coun­ter-attacks on their bridgeheads near Kerch and generally, im­proved their positions in that Area. German broadcaata said the Rda^ alana were bnnging up infantiy reinforcements on the Perekop iathtnni, northwestern gateway to the peninsula.

Soviet revolution also saw the Red Army driving to within 45 miles of the Latvian and old I^llah bor­ders on the north central front, where a Ruaaian communique aaid the Nazis were losing "one posi­tion after another” west and aouthweat of Nevel. Six locali­ties were seized and 400 Germans killed in that theater yesterday.

The Berlin radio, admitting that the Soviet smash southwest of Kiev had forced the Germans "to take up new lines,” estimated that the Russians were using more than250.000 troops in that area, while the Nazi-controlled Scandinavian Telegraph bureau, declaring that

Americans Eating More Rabbit Meat Than Ever

Washington, Nov. 8—(4-i—M »y' be you haven’t thought much about rabbits lately, but consider this;

Americans' not o,nly are. we'arlng rabbits in felt hats and fur' coats but alsb are eating more gahbit meat this year than ever before, •

That’s the word from the United States Fish and Wildlife service, which reports the mailing of 200,- 000 pamphlets, on rabbit-raising during the las't year and which would like to get people so rabbit- consciouS they would count rab­bits at night instead of sheep.'.Would Like lo See More Raised

The Fish and Wildlife service .would like to see m ore people grow rabbits in their backyards for home consumption, as a means of easing the wartime meat shortage.

Frank B. Ashbrook, in charge of fur resources for the service, ex­plains that domestic rabbit (white meat) and wild rabbit (dark meat) are two different dishes. He says young, fried rabbit tastes like fried chicken.

Here are some of the other things Ashbrook .said about rab­bits:

Three or four does and a buck can provide a good-sized family with ail the rabbit meat it wants.

Rabbit is anioung the "quickest'' : meat|thei;e is; A rabbit is ready to I be broiled or fried at the age of

seven or eight weeks.Rabbit meat ia unrationed. ,

Also Sell FursPeople who grow rabbits • for

meat—even only for home con­sumption—sell the furs, too. More than half of them (the be.st peljtsl are used for garments and the re.st for felt. Nearly all fur felt is made from rabbit fur.) A good domestic rabbit brings about $1.

People sometimes get rabbit fever (Tularemia) from handling wild rabbits, though not from eat­ing them, because cooking kills the iCerms. But domestic rabbits, Aah- bruok said, dqn't have tularemia. ,

Washington. Nov. 8—(4-i—Most of the nation's coal miners began returning to the job of producing war-vital fuel under a new wage agreement today as President Roosevelt's special indiistry-labor- public board opened a. general in­quiry into war-time living coats.

The miners’ pa.v was raised from $7 to $8.50 per da>’. but they will hr required to work an hour long­er.. As members of John L. Lewis’

United Mine Workers went back to the pits, however, steel toilers were reported ready to seek a 15- cent an hour boost In pay, and a strike vote was being conducted among more than 1,1(10.000 mem­bers df the railroad brotherhoods. Th (j.IO United Steelworkers meet in Philadelphia today to draft new wage demands.

To Report Within 60 Days The President’s living cost in­

vestigators were' drawn from the War Labor Board, which Mr. Roosevelt has backed consistently, its member.8' were instructed to report within 60 days. The inquiry followed complaints of workers that wages have not risen at the same ratio as living cqsts.. Chairman William H. Davis of the WLB supported the labor leaders in that contention. He told Congress that present wage controls are forcing workers to bear a greater share o f the anti- inflation struggle than any qthor segment of society.

RefiiiKi To CommentUnion ofticials would pot com­

ment for publication immediately on the situation.

Vln.son said today he would al­low also a slight upward revision of the recent 4-cent awgrd to op­erating. railroad employees in cer tain brackets.

Pointing out that undei the new piopoaed wage scale, the higher paid "hon-ops” will receive a.sltght- ly greater increase than operating employes who receive like pay. Vin.son stated:

"I shall, therefore, advise the chairman of the National Railway Labor panel that if he receives'fio- ticc of a proposed change for.the operating elnployes whfeh will in­crease their rates of pay by the amount of the dlltcrence between the increasci for the non-operating employes in the applicable range of rates set forth and four cents, he may regard such a proposal as in conformity '\ith the' stabiliza­tion program."

4-Cent Incrrass Rejeeted Operating personnel have rc.iect-

cd the 4-cent lncrea.se, and like thcii nori-opcraling fellow-workers arc taking a strike vote In con­nection with the award.

The propoRwl non-operating .Irv- creases would become effective Nov. 19.

The sHdlng scale replaces a previou.s award of a tet eight cents an hour increase,in all wage cUssiflcatlons, which Vinson re­jected.

The 16 non-o|ieiBting unions Qriginally asked a flat Increase of 20 cenU. An emergency board recommended the general Increase of 8 cents JMM May. Vinson vetoed this. The president appointed a special board three weeks ggO to rehear the case.

The 16 unions are now taking a strike vote among members.

doubtedly stimulated a new burstof public optimism.

Foidr one who likes to lay It on the line h^re a(C the odds quoted by one prominent Lloyd's broker:

Four to one against an armi­stice by CltaiistmaB.

Three to one against an armi­stice by February.

The broker said he conAdsrad himself on the bullish side.

Lloyd's doesn't handle bets as such, but you can get a "peace policy" which Is virtually the same thing if you have aomethlng Insurable- a shipbuilding business with war contracts, for Instance.

Besides drawing the most hope­ful inferences from newspaper headlines, the people in Britain are cheered by "conUdentlal" sto­ries and offhand remarks which often arc quoted as if they had d r ^ aignifleance.

For instance, an officer presum­ably filgh in the military Intelli­gence Is reported to have said to his barber, "W hat wojld you say if you knew we, could turn on the lights In 3C days."

Or a minor-governmental em ploye told a friend ‘he.-had been working overtime tor days. help-1 ing to digest a flood of reports on a crackup on the German home , front. - I

An American businessman who left recently for New York told friends he had bet thousands of dollars In the United States that the European war could be over by Christmas, but declined to ac­cept bets In England because he couldn't take sterling out of the country.

Dr. An­drew Plunkett, active in K. of C. circles, who was a rector in Shel­ton; Rev. James O’Meara, later rector of a church in New Haven; Rev. Eklward Lynch, Rev. James Healey, who died while serving as an assistant at St. James’s, Rev. William McCarthy and Rev. Ig ­natius Kost, the first curate of the church.

In addition to the priests who served at St. James’s there will also be included Rev. Oliver T. Magnell, the first person to be ordained from St. James’s church.

The other local man who was a member of St. James’s church and was ordained to the priesthood, who died young, was Rev. Michael Foley. ,

But when the criticism had all

see every one else doing the same thing. And now that Lewis has been allowed to run ahead of the rest of the pack. It la Inevitable that 11 ahould try to catch up him. The C. I. O. la only the first

B«a good, exactly, had been hoped..

Other more legitimate and leas enootiraging dlacoverlea have alao

made. The French NaUonal Oonunittee ot LlberaUon, for In­stance, flnda France not men­tioned, or Included In the dlacua- ■tons, and openly reaenU auch a nnubbing. The Free French quite naturally do not welcome the ea- tabBahment of a “ Big Four" which doea not Include historic France. They are not ready to accept what aeema to be Allied opinion, that France U a second rate power from this time on. They think France ought to rate a little higher with the Allies than does lUIy.

Othkr critics of the Moscow Pact refuse to take the precedent aet by policy toward Austria as an Indication'of equally just pol­icy toward other amall nations and claim, instead, that these oth er nations should have been men­tioned and guaranteed now.

And perhaps the most signifi­cant fiaw found In the Moscow Pact la the fact that the declare tlon on atrocities mentions all the nations which have been occupied by Nazi troops except three ha- tlona—Utbuanta, Latvia add Ea- tbonia These are th e ^ r e e Bal­tic republics whom^Sbvlet Ruaala conquered before Germany could get to them, and their omission from the dedaratlon’s list infers that Rupela may have gotten away -^with her often-repeated

which la that these coUn- ^ea are already part of Russia

and no topic for outside nations to discuss. If that U so, If Russia la still preempting title to these erstwhile Independent nations, or if Russia is getting our approval for such title without any expres­sion of will from the people of these nations themselves, there is still cancer In the otherwise fine form of the Moscow Pact.

These. In their varying impor­tances, are the flaws of the Mos­cow Pact. Justly enough, their discoverers are, ■ so far as we can judge, getting exactly nowhere In their effort to persuade people that, because it may ’have such flaws, the Moscow Pact should be disowned. Justly enough, the ruling opinion still seems to be that the Moscow Pact represents the greatest step# toward lasting .pM|Ce this world ha-s ever taken, the greatest good that has yet come from this war.

Aa for the flaws themselves,>, who is there who thinks that the

Moscow declaratiooa are them- aelvcs the end of the atoiy? Is it likely that, having taken the road to collective security, the Allies are now going to grow Increasing­ly unreasonable with one another, ao that they destroy their own beginning? Or can they be ex­pected to work'forward down the path tbey have chosen, meeting and eliminating,Imperfections and blots as they go along, finding more and more tmnfidence In the same coliactive security they have chosen, so that tbey feel, leas and

T o Develop Uuified Gov­ernment Policy for W ar and Post - War Adjustment.

By James Marlow and Ofmrge ZIeike

'Washington, Nov. 8—(ff)— The new Job handed to Bernard M. Baruch—development of a unified government policy for war and poat-war adjustment—will affec^ everybody in this country.

While toe principal problems may be grouped under the heficl- Inga of industrial shifts In war­time and conversion of industry to peace, any decision tal^n will reach out to touch, every home.' Specifically, toe main problems

are these:1. Revision and termliiation of

war contracts. •3. Disposition and reconveraten

of war plants.3. Disposal of surplus w^r ma­

terials.Bearing on Many Problems

Each of these has a bearing on employment, on wages and prices, on taxes to pay the coat.

War Moblllzer James F. Byrnes, in whose office the adjustment unit is established, points out out that the Immediate problem la produced by toe changing re­quirements of war strategy.

This Involves the question of weapons and materials needed, and—of major importance— those not needed.

Where certain weapons no long­er are required, what is to be done with toe plants which have produced them? Can they be shifted to other war production? What delays—and consequent un­employment—would result from such a change? Should these plants be permitYed to return during wartime to production of civilian items? And what de­lays and unemployment would be Involved?

Just to show toe extent of fac­tors tied up In toe whole problem: take tole queetion: If a plant is permitted to return to manufac­ture o f civilian items, what shall be toe atatus of Its skilled workers deferred from military service by resaon of toelr occupation ? yiOuId they get continued deferment?

'VBMBIiloytiMnt Extent'at StokeMere than half o f American

production workers and machines are In war production or aligned toward toe purposes o f war, a re­port o f a Natioiial Planning As­sociation committee ' states. In some lines, present capacity of output la far greater than any peacetlms demand In toe past.

gome plants may be useless for peace; some toe government may wish to keep Intact. Commerce Secretsiry Jesse Jonee has suggest­ed a plan to permit manufacturers to buy govemment-o'wned plants on an Installment basis.

' Sobject O f Much DiscussionDisposal o f surplus war ma­

terials Is a subject of much pres­ent discussion. Orderly ale with a minimum disruption of normal channels of trsde and distribution is the goal of Industry, concerned over possible loss of markets.

Termination o f war contracts will find plants with raw ma- terlala and semi-flri^hed products on hand. Industry points out that

' termination may leave a company wtth most of its working capital tlefi-^m in work In progress and in inventf^es. Ths question, then, is one of Item in g reconversion.

This be a continuing prob­lem. The f lm crisis may com# with toe defei^ of (lermany and her satellites. *I1i t will bring up toe question: How, naany plants are needed to turn but toe weap­ons and other materials^ for the war against Japan and foKoccupS' tlon o f defeated nations. \

Local Priest Now Giap- lain in German Prison

•Cainji in West.Camp Carson, Colo., Nov. 8—(^

—German prisoners of war have Injected a bit of the fatherland Into this Internment camp In the foot­hills of the Rockies, the Army dis­closed today in announcing details o f a morale-building program.

"The prisoners have added, a touch of old Germany to toe can­teens by decorating them to look like beer gardens,” said the camp public relations office. "All of the decorations, chairs and tables In the canteen were made by the pris­oners In toe woodcraft shop."

Morale I* Important "Morale of prisoners of war in

an Internment camp means the dif­ference between a troublesome and

smooth running camp," said the Army. "Prlaoners with high morale make it possible to run a camp with the least amount of personnel, thereby being an aid to our ever- Increaslng ^manpower shortage problem.”

Chaplain It PraisedThe public relations office said

an "unbelievably high" morale ex­isted at toe camp, which is com­manded by Lieutenant Colonel Eugene N. Frakes. Lieutenant V.. J. Hines .of New Haven, Conn., the chaplain, was described as "one of the most important men In the in­ternment camp as far as morale Is concerned.’’

'T he chaplain was in Munich at the time of Adolf Hitler’s 'blood purges.’ He spent three year in Germany and is very familiar with toelr habits, traditions and ton­gue,” said the Army’s release.

"The chaplain states that only two per cent of the prisoners con­fess that they have no belief in God. Four men who were studying to become Catholic priests ' and were drafted into the German Army, are now finishing toelr studies.’’ ■ .

Sugar Rationing End Not Likely

Washington, Nov. 8 — —Despite current large atookpiles of sugar, particularly in southern warehouses, there is little likeli­hood It will be Temoved from ra­tioning in toe near future.

The Office of Price Adminlstra- jjon said today that a reduction o f sugar beet production this year by approjfimately 500,000 tons is the principal factor in this prospect.

Hopes xthat sugar rationing might be eitded were aroused last summer when '^resident Roosevelt, in announcing the. termination o f coffee rationing, saiij householders could expect alao “ that within a short time we shall get'gpeatly In­creased allowances o f sug^ .’’

The fact that sugar is a wki* ma­terial as well as a food militAtos against the suspension of ration­ing, however. OPA said.

Ruasia and England require large shipments, and eastern pro-

ucers of Industrial alcohol —for synthetic rubber and explosives — have been shifted from grain to sugar.

John C. Wilson, theatrical pro­ducer, who has sponsored the Noel- Coward plays, "Design for Liv­ing.” "Tonight at 8:30,’’ "Set to Music" and "Operette," received a letter from Coward in toe spring of 1941 in which he stated he had written a new play in six da'Jrs while on furlough from military duties.

"It is a comedy called 'Blithe Spirit' Coward wrote. "I have not written it to lighten Britain’s war glooms with laugntor Our country is already full or laughter. It isn’t merely gallantry and put­ting on a brave face; it's very real and infinitely stimulating. Realiz­ing that this particular feeling

.was more important than any­thing else, I decided to write a Comedy."

"Blithe Spirit,’ ’ the play which was the. result of Coward's holi­day, has been the moat successful of the 29 contributions toe noted playwright has rnade to -the the­ater. It ran for two years In Lon­don and for 682 performances in New York. When It comes to the Bushnell Memorial, Hartford, this Tuesday and Wednesday for two. evening performances and a mati­nee on Wednesday, audience., will see toe original Broadway cast headed by a noted band of players, Clifton Webb, Peggy Wood, Mil­dred Natwick and Haila Stoddard.

Bishop Welch Speaker Here

PreacheHi an Inapiring Sermoii at the South Church Anniversury.‘The purpose of toe church is

to keep alive toe 'sense of the Eternal," said Bishop Herbert Welch of New York In his sermon, yesterday morning a t the' South Methodist church. As guest preacher at the eighteenth anni­versary of the dedication of the church, Bishop Welch urged the congregation to keep* faith In the eternal and everpresent God. " I t is not hard to believe in the God of the past, the God of creation, the God present at the beginnings, nor is it hard”' he continued, "for some to believe lii a God of toe fu­ture who will come triumphant In clouds of glory. The God of the present is. the God that hi hard to believe In and yet this is the God that matters.”

Father of AH Mankind Bishop Welch stressed toe one­

ness o f GcM, pointing out that every nation both in the Occident and in toe Orient has looked upon God as belonging only to them, and as though they alone belong­ed to God. “Yet," he urged, "It Is the same God, the Father of all mankind." In the service of wor­ship Bishop Welch baptized three children.

The Scripture lesson of the morning was read by Dr. Janies I. Bartholomew, pastor of the South Methodist church In 1899-00. He is now living In Stafford Springs, Ckmn. Dr. Bartholomew was ac­companied to the service by Mrs. Bartholomew. Dr. Earl E. Story, district superintendent of the Nor­wich District and pastor of toe church, 1935-41, was present and gave the pastoral prayer.

ranged by J. Thurston Noe, min­ister of music, consisted of organ prelude, "In Memoriam" by Hen­ry M. Dunham played In memory of Mr. Dunham who played the or­gan at toe service of dedication in

Declares Wheeler ‘Uniformly 'Wrong’

Waterbury, Nov. 8— l/P)—Term­ing Senator Burton K. Wheeler "uniformly wrong,” Rabbi Stephen S. Wise o f New York suggested last night mat if the FBI complies with Senator Wheeler's demand to investigate John R. Carlson, au­thor of the nook "Under Cover,’’ it should also investigate Senator Wheeler and his activities.

Speaking at toe Second Congre­gational Church Forum, Rabbi Wise read from the book many statements by prominent individ­uals in this country appro'ving various Fascist activiUes, criticiz­ing American democracy and en­couraging anti-Semitism.

‘T hst such conditions stayed under cover so long," he declared, "is a disgrace to our country; rather'it la discreditable to toe in­telligence o f the American peov pie."

crown contention that singed and curled hairs were found on the de­fendant’s hands and arms the night of July 8, and that these were evi­dence he might have been In the bedroom at the time of the attack.

"My name is Maxim Louis Georges de Visdelou-Gulmbeau,” the witness said tii response to the questions of Chief Defense Counsel Godfrey-Higgs.

"I have known de Marigny for 17'years.”

Higgs’ questions quickly led tothe night of the slaying. ----

De Visdelou told of a dinner party given by de Marigny July 7 at the cottage they shared. Num­erous other witnesses have de­scribed the party, ameng them de Vlsdelou’s close friend, Betty Roberts, who backed up part of de Marlgny's own account of his activities when she testified Satur­day. *

Describing the party, de Visde- loii said: >

“About 11:30, Roberta sug­gested that we go up stairs be­cause I was coughing. 1 took off my coat, shirt and tie and put on a pajaitia top and went to bed.

"Mi.ss Roberts stayed on a couch in the- living room.

About 1:30 there was a knock on the door.

“It was de Marigny.”Not Permitted to Quote

De Visdelou was not permitted to quote from the conversation, which was held in French, nor could he tell what he told Miss Roberta In explanation.

He tried several times, but fin­ally gave up, with a gesture of his arms.

He told of driving Muss Roberta home about five minutes until three.

"I w-ent back home and parked the car In the same place, by the steps leading to my apartment," he continued. “I removed the key, and went into the kitchen of the main house for a drink.”

Higgs questioned closely about the parking of the automobile, since the defense Is contending that de Marigny could not have driven his own automobile on a later trip to Westbourne without having first removed de Visdelou's car from the driveway.

Almost as an after thought, de VUdelou added that while he Was In the kitchen, he heard de Ma­rigny calling to him.

"He told me to remove my cat," explained de Visdelou.

“I opened the door leading to the porch and let the cat out," de Visdelou said.

Chief Justice Sir Oscar Bedford Daly brought out a plan of the Victoria avenue Mouse and pointed

! but that the door led from the ■ dining room to the porch., i "Then I took the cat and went

to bed." de Visdelou added, i His testimony here differed

examined de Marigny** theprison July 10, and found no algfls of burned or singed hairs or of reddening, of the skin.

"If thrse'out of svew ton hairs had been affected by t te ^ h e a t,” asked Associate Defense Counsel W. B. A. Callender, “would you have observed them with a naked eye examination?”

“If they actually were burned, I believe 1 would have,” said Ober- warth, emphasizing that "1 made my examination with the naked eye.” • >

Attorney Genernl Eric Hallinan brought out that Oberwarth saw no burned hairs on the defendant's hands. . \

Defense witnesses have said he burned his hands while lighting hurricane lamps at a dinner party July 7. X

Possible To Escape Detection *'l stated In magistrate’s court,”

Oberwarth explained, "that It is possible for burned hairs to escape detection with the naked eye unless they are present in large num­bers.

*'A proper examination Is one made with a mlscroscope or magni­fying glass.”

*fhe physician said-he never be­fore had been asked to examine a prisoner for burned hairs, and thus did not use visual aids. * ,

Dr. Oberwarth- said digestion continued a few momenta after death.

He thus made no effort to chal­lenge the time of Sir Harry’s death, fixed by the crown as between 1:30 and 3:30 a. m. July 8.

“How long would the affect of heat on hairs last?” asked Chief Justice Sir Oscar Bedford Daly.

‘Tight curling would last about three days,” said Dr. Oberwarth.

To HU At Fingerprint He said he did not know how

long other signs would be visible. The defense made ready to strike at the heart of the crown’s case by challenging evidence that de Marig- ny’s fingerprint was found on a bedscreen In the death room.

That fingerprint was left by de Marlg;ny, Oakes’ son-in-law, crown detectives declared, but attorneys for the accused were ready to dis­pute the contention with the test! mony of Capt. Maurice B. O’Neil.

'Nell, the Marquis de Visdelou and Nancy Oakes de Marigny, wife of the defendant, are awaiting a call to testify.

The announcement made In The Herald Saturday of the sale of the Cliarles A. Staye property on East Center street through the George Graziadio agency, to Ter­rence Shannon and sons, is one of the most important real estate deals m a ^ in Mancheater In sev­eral ye^n as far as business prop­erty is’concerned.'tTOere was a time a few years

when the property could not be "^ught and it iq known that the Telephone Company, before It erqct- e& its building further east, offered $36,000 for It..

State’s ForestsAid ill the War

Hartford, Nov. 8—Lumber Is one of the essential war materials In which there is a critical short­age; so much so Ji^t the govern­ment has put on a special cam­paign to increase its production. Since Pearl Harbor, (^onntoticut State Forests have contributed to. the war effort by the sale of 200,- 000 feet of hardwood lumber which was sawed several years Ago from timber felled by the hur­ricane. In addition, sales of standy ' ing trees to local sawmill ope^- tors have been made "whicta total 800,000 board feet. A cutflfig of this kind is being made nq*) in the Pine Mountain Sectiox of the Tunxis State Forest/tiear Hart- land. Here 150.000 J/^t of mature pine and bemloclc' are being' re­moved and sawpd by a local saw­mill operator^ All trees to be cut are marked, twforehand by compe- tcrii foresters.

If State forest acquisition had not been inte>Tupted during the period 1931 to 1941 the State For­ests would be In a position to con­tribute more liberally to the war effort In the meantime many pri­vate fpresta have been depleted by over cutting. The timber being cut

New Haven, Nov. 8—t/P)—The United States must never again suspend most of Its military re­search as it did after the last war. Prof. J. F, Fulton declared, last night on the v/eekly Yale broad­cast.

Ptvfeasor Fulton, a member of the Yfue School of Medicine fac­ulty, said that even the well-in­formed will be surprised when the part of science in winning the war la finally diacloeed.

"It is absolutely essential that war-time research In military matteqs continue In the peace,” he said. .

"In no circumstiincea should we as a nation find ouroslvea in the position of having suspended all or nearly all research on military matters. Consideration! of na­tional security forbid emphatical­ly a course so shoit-alghted.T

Weet Side Bowlers 'Clash This Week

. / By'Ted MeierNew York, Nov. 8,—

Ing Is believing.Until Saturday we had kept our

fingers crosse^ While reading how wonderful Notre 'Dame waa In drubbing''teams like Michigan, Navy^lind Georgia Tech, but aft­er watching the Irish trounce pre­viously unbeaten Army, 26-0, we hasten to jump aboard the South Bend band wu*n.

The Frank Leahy coached elev­en deserves Ita ranking as the No. 1 college football team In the country primarily becauee of a great line, led by tgckle Jim White, that clears the way for, a host of quick-starting backs.

The Irish weren’t perfect against Army. They lost two touchdowns because they got their signals mixed up on the cadet two»yard-Ilne early in the game and because no one got downfleld' to block for Johnny Yonakor when he snared a 68- yard pasa from Johnny Lujack. These errors might have rattled another team, but the Ramblers overcame them with ease and It Is doubtful If many in the crowd of 76,000 at Yankee Stadium real­ised they had alipped up.

The game supplied the answer to the question that puzzled fans all last week. How good would Notre Dame be without Angelo Bertelli, the passing wizard, who waa transferred to the Marine camp at Parris Island? The an­swer, In the words of Lieut. Col. Earl Blaik, Army coach; “Lujak Is just as good as Bertelli.’'

All Lujack did waa throw two touchdown passes, score a third himself, call the signals, do most of the punting and catch CTarl An­derson from behind when the Army TSSclc seen.ed on his way to a score after Intercepting a Lu­jack pass Into the flat.

Should Breezo InUnless all signs fail, the Irish

should win their last three games against Northwestern, Iowa Si(a- hawks and Great Lakes to become the first Notre Dame team since the Knute Rockne era ' to go through a season iinbeaten and untied. They play Northwestern this week at Evanston, RI.

The other outstanding develop­ments of the week-end were Navy’s surprising 24-7 roq^ of Ponnaylvania and Southern Cali­fornia’s 10-7 defeat by the San Diego Naval Training Station. Both Penn and USC previously were unbeaten while the Trojans had failed to yield a point.

Penn, which surprised by tying Army a week earlier led Navy, 7-6. at halftime, but fqded in the second half before 73,000

I as the Middies, sparked py Hal I Hamberg’s passing and. running,! rebounded from a 38-6 Notre I Dame licking.I It was Ed. Nelson’s field goal from the 12-yard^ line that tum­bled USC froro'tnc unbeaten, un­tied ranks. Late In the game the Trojans got a first down on the San Diejto five, but lost th* ball on dowfis on the one.

Purdue WinsMinus Tony Butkovich. Pur­

due’s undefeated untied Bollcr- put to beat

Minnesota, 14-7, but won their eighth straight in the last 40 sec­onds op a 19-yard pass after re­covering a Gopher fumble.

Michigan, beaten only by Notre Dame, walloped Indiana, 23-6, while Oirnell bounced back from Its Holy Cross defeat to take Penn State. 13-0; Northwestern pasted Wisconsin," 4l-0; and Great Lakes took Camp Grant. 12-0.

In other games Ohio Slat® rolled up a 46-6 score on Pitt: Dartmouth whacked Columbia, 47-13; Brown staved off a late Yale rally to beat the Eli, 21-20; Holy Cross walloped Temple, 42- 6, and 'Vlllanova, led by Al Postus, tnmpled Princeton, 45-22.

Duke slaughtered North’ Caro­lina State, 76-0, in the south as Georgia Tech steamrollered Lou­isiana State 42-7 and 'Virginia thumped Maryltmd, 39-0, In the Southwest the unbeaten but tied Texas Aggies downed Southern Methodist, 20-0; Rice best Arkan­sas, 20-7; Texas Christian lost to Texas Tech, 40-20; and Tulsa, al­so unbeaten but tied, shellacked the Oklahoma Aggies, 55-6.

Bob SteuberTops Scorers

DePauw College Player Heads List of Stars With 129 Points.New York, Nov. 8—(yp)—Bbb

Steuher, of little DePauw College at Greencastle, Ind., took a firm­er grip on first place In the na­tion’s high scoring football com­petition last week by scoring 29 points against Fort Knox.

Steuber’s spree of four touch­downs and five conversions booted his season total to 129 points, 31 more than the 98 compiled by Steve Van Buren of Louisiana State.

The 96 points scored by Purdue’s Tony Butkovich before he was transferred away frorh the unde­feated, untied boilermakers kept him in third place, 20 points ahead of Elroy Hirqcb, of Michigan.Howie Blose/'of Cornell, jumped Into fifth place with 60 points by getting ta’o touchdowns against Penn State.

PharUe Brickley, whose phenom­enal dropkicking placed him on Walter Camp’s All-American foot­ball teams of 1913-14, has only one regret a& he goes about his work In a shipyard here.

‘T wish they had taught pipe- fitting at Harvard," laments the tnnh who once booted flve field goals to beat Yale 15 to 5.

Charlie was a lieutenant in the Navy In the last war and tried to enlist in this one but waa turned down because of his age—he’s 63 now. ,

After hia three hons went away to war, he pigeonholed his college degree and business enterprises and offered to work at the Dravo Shipyards for nothing. But he’s paid $48 a week, the same as the other 31 men in his gang.

“I played a few seasons of pro football with the Maisllon (O.) Tigers,” Brickley recalled, “and Thorpe was with the Canton (O.) Bulldogs. I wish I had played on his side. Jim could figure out what you were going to do before you did it, and was right there to stop you.”

By this time the Army folks probably are call­ing It "the bitter T of General Leahy” . . . and, come to think of it, Johnny Lujack turned out to be a pretty good general even though he turned down an appointment to West Point to enter Notre Dame, as did Bob Kelly, the Irish fresh man halfback . . . Too bod that the loss of Angelo Bertelli was (Coach Leachy said) like taking the heart out of a man. Maybe that accounts for the heartless way ths Irish kept on scoring after they had the game, won . . and poorhid Duke. losing 32 men from the first squad and only beating North Carolina State 75-0 . . , Navy’s cheering section was lost in a fog on the way to Philadelphia— and apparently they brought the fog along for Penn to get lost in.

Out Of all yesterday’s close com­petition only the Brooklyn Dodg- ers and Chicago Bears progressed.' The Dodgers beat Jie Chlcqgo. Cardinals by that 7 to 0 m ar^n- and thereby won their first vie- ■ tory of the season. The bears' snapped out of it to stifle Green 1 Bay, 21 to 7,. smd come within a ; hair’s breadth of clinching their fourth straight western /ilivlidon’i chamiMonship.

The ■Washington Redskin’s 14 to : 14 duel with the Phil-Pltt Elsglek .1 didn’t set the champions back any, however, for they passed the half*6^ way mark in their schedule with ' a pretty substantial grip on first ' place in the east.

Now,they’d have to lose two and tis one of their remaining five games before PhU-Pltt or New York could catch them. And for that to happen, the Giants, held to a tooreless Ue yesterday by De­troit, would have to win all their, remaining gomes, Including two with Washington and one n e x t: Sunday with the Bears, or Phil-; F .tt would need to polish off all its.' next four foes, including Washing-';' ton and Green Bay, '

Skiers Clear Winter Course

By Bob Geiger AP Features

Spaniah Peak.a Game Refuge, Colo.—The Phantom is dead. He war killed by u woman. Mrs. John Cha of Trinidad, Colo., and by her feat .she now is acclaimed the champion huntress of southern Colorado.

The Phantom wat a gigantic buck deer weighing more tlian 300 pounds but so nimble of foot that ’’i nters had been able to catch ®nly (. glin>psc of him as he bound­ed across the sharp pinnacles of the "’’adlands” of Uie San Isabel Natloi al Forest.

T> al is how he got his name. Hunters say he moved so fast he was like a phantom; a ghost buck that fleeted by the peep sights of their l igh powered rifles so fast they newt got a good shot at him. He was The Phantom of the Span­ish Peaks.

For five d^ys, recently! ' Mrs. Cha and her husband hunted un­successfully.

Hunted in ‘Badlands'"Discouraged, we decided to

tr>’ 'the ’Badlands’,” says Mrs. Cha. “About daybreak, as we were scaling the east side of one ol the | high poiiita, we encountered a ] small group of hunters. They told u? of having ^ c k e d anc) sighted 8 huge buck, ^ut he was beyond •hooting range.

'This same buck . was -• tracked last year by numerous .hunters, none being able to get a bead on him, due to this buck’s particular wariness and Illusiveness. He was the one nicknamed The Phantom.’

"After having obtained all this information my husband and I be­came more eager than ever to track this buck, even though we were told ho ranged on the highest points.

Hiql Tracks“About 8 a. m. we first ran into

some huge buck tracks and. in COD q:. ce of the previous night’s rain and snow, tracking became consideraoly eaaler.

“When we arrived practically

at the top I took the east facing oi the rim rock while my husband took the left. Suddenly I glanced ahead to see Mr. Phantom Buck tapidly boui.oing away_ in a diag­onal line from me. 1 immediately gaiiied my composure and, as itiy quarry was running more or less 111 open terrain, at a distance of about .100 yard.s, I fired my first .shot, striking him in the hind legs. The second shot grazed his neck, turning him directly bro.adsidc8 of me. _

"As ^ e began to gain distance and still climbing. 1 led him with my s'ghl lor about a yard ‘ and again cut loose, dropping him in ins t r a . 'K s with a gaping hole in his side."

Also Gut A BearSouthern Colorado game war­

dens say Mr. Phantom Buck is the largest killed In their part of the state iii* recent years.

Besides this buck Mrs. Oha has killed six others In the last six yean, and also bagged a 275-pound bear.

Club Members Work Over Sunset Hill; Await First Snow.

. -------- . rSeveral members of the Man­

chester Ski club were on hand yesterday afternoon with axes, saws, scythes, and sundry imple­ments for the first afternoon of elearing the Sunset Hill slope. As a considerable amount . of ohnib- bery and brush had aprung up during the past spring and sum­mer, the club members found’ plenty of work to do during the sunny afternoon hours, and every­one liove to with an energetic fer­vor and zeal which caused pas.ser.sby to halt and start with interest and amazement at the amateur woodamen and women.

Although bSKiks were aching and bliatera showed definite signs of promise on more than one thumb, the aki entbiiaiasta looked, back with pride and satisfaction on a task well started as the sun set over'the hills. Next Sunday afler- noon’s work on Sunset Hill ■should complete the job and leave evicrything In readiness for the first eagerly Ictoked-for snowfall.

One local fight enthusiaat who has seen Maloni in action In West Springfield, recently, on hearing of the match, said: “Ooh! Bennett better watch out for that guy: he throws s wicked 1-ft hook”

Patterson came near being tha first to stop Bennett with such blow's But he let bis opportimity slip away and paid dearly for it. For Bennett. In superb condition, recuperated after being floored three times, once flat on hi# face, and knocked Patterson down three times, anu out In the sev­enth.

It was all too much, for Sally. Last night's events were unreal ^ough , without having the in­jured man turn into a celebrity. Reporters downstairs. Maybe pho. tog^phers. Sally groaned. •

Shq started to dress for the ses­sion With the newsmen down­stairs, h s couldn’t find her ear- ringp. 'Ti^ce she dropped her lip­stick on'the floor. She was all dressed when she discovered her stockings didn’t match.

She had walked three steps down the stairs, when there was a sudden rush b«low and the hall swarmed with men. Immediately dazzling light bathed Sally In white brilliance \ as flash bulbs popped. “Right there! Hold it! Now come down a few steps!”

Sally stood it for. ■ second, then crumpled up on the stairs, her face In her arms. There wa.s an embarressed silence.' Then one man cama up the stairs, his hat in his hand. " I ’m shrry. Miss Thayer. We didn’t mean to upset you. But after the swell thing you did last night, naturally the boys want to have a picture. W e’ve a ’ready gotten a shot of the doc­tor at Emergency, but of course you're the star. Let’s start ail over again.” His voice was friendly; he put an arm beneath her elbow, "Why not come down here iind just tell us how you felt gll through it. Then the boys wijl take a couple of pictures— good ones— and it will all bo pver.”

Somehow she got through it. She tried to tell them what had happened, but she made It sound so simple. Anyone who knew first aid would have done what she did. The reporters disagreed. So they shot questions right and le ft Finally she was rescusd by the same man. “OK. let’s call It a day. Miss Thayer probably wants to get some breakfast.” He turned to Sally. "How about it? Let’s go round the corner and re­lax over some good coffee.”

Someone grabbed his srm. “No, you don’t. Bob. We ll all take Miss 'Thayer to breakfast, thank you. Get your hat, Mias Thayer. ”

Pedestrians stared at them as they swarmed over the aldewalk. six men and one young girl in a navy blue ,dresa with a white piqua oollar and round sailor hat with blue streamers. They tramp­ed into a cafe on Connecticut Avenue that Sally had always ■voided because it looked tough. It proved to have the best coffee cake she had ever eaten. Sally sat on a atool. The rest stood up around her.

Bob grinned down at her. " I ’ll bet you’re going to got a lot of work done today.” ’

Sally had almost forgotten she had a job. Shs looked at her w a t^ . "Good heavens! My bou hast a big session at 10 and here I am. Tve got to tear. Thank to much ’•for my breakfast.” Be­fore Jhey knew what was .going on, she’d rushed out the door and down the atreet ,

Sally dreaded every step of the' way to her office in the W ar Com­mission— now ttiat. she knew what was spread all over the front page. But avidently she. was still anonymous here. There were al­ways such crowds in the eleva­tors that your featurea were •lightly mashed while you rode up. She slipped thankfully into the third-floor oifflco and stopped ehort. A huge vase of dark red roses stood on her deA . The white card beside It said simply, “Don’t let all thia go to your head. It’s routine prescription in cases sf this kind.

Sally stood amtling. down at. the sard. Peter. What a nica guy he was. Simultaneously with her thoughts the telephone rang. Petepa voice on the w ire 'was un­mistakable. “Gosh, you have to cnock off work for the. morning ;o get hold of oomeone up at your

■"Just my low-down way to get­ting back in your good graces. I ’ve meant to.call you alnce that first evening, when you finally spolce to me in a friendly way. But I've been up to my ears. Now that you’re a heroine, 1 think I ’d like to know you better." Peter had a dioarmlng way of. stating the other person’s reaction before he had time to 0b it himeelf. Sally had wondered why Peter hadn’t repeated hla' first invitation— es­pecially .since he bad ' seemed to enjoy hitnself as much as she had.

"1 thought you’d like to know you were right on that concus­sion. If any well-meaning soul had moved that guy, he might be in the other world now. And now, what are you doing tonight?”

Sally started to say ’’nothing,” , till she remembered the UBO dance. Her heart sank. ”Oh, Peter, I ’m so sorry. I'm supposed to go up to Fort Meade.”

“Putting me in competition with the Army, are you? Well, in that.case, since for the first time in six i^ionths I'm not on duty Sunday, I’ll come around and you can tell me all about the soldier boys. How about saving your appetite for a.fancy break­fast around twelve?”

’T d love to. And thank you so

Diogenese, If is reported, want about the streets of Athens wdth a lighted lantern In broad day­light looking for an honest man. But the time came when h r blew out the lantern and went home, and here are some of the expla­nations:

He met a soldier who acknowl­edged that he was only a private in the army. ' ,

He met a , politician who ac­knowledged that he had made a mistake.

■He met a defeated candidate Who did nbt bl^me hi.s defeat on the perfidy and trlciiery of the other party. ,

He met a woman who acknowl­edged that she with a bit jealous of her neighbor who had just hung new curtains.

He met a man who had been fishing and acknowledged that he never got a bite.

He met a husband and wife,

both of whom confessed they werq wrong at the conclusion of the argument..

He met a man who was relat­ing some personal deminiscenres and did not make himself the hero of them.

Someone said that he met an editor who did not blamb the proofreader for a mistake that appeared. in We paper, but surely Diogenes could not have been aui^ prised at that

Anyway Diogenese blew out hlg lantern. But by that time he' was getting up in years and it probably was time for him to re­tire anyway.

my ease is diffsrent I have been around a great deal an* can •ay truthfully that no woman ever made a fool of me.

2 Russian Armies Pound Westward; Near Old Borders

Building GasApproach Polish and Rumanian Frontiers on Heels o f Shattered P l a n t S U r g e d Remnants of 12 Nazi r\ atDivisions; Pin Ger- A s D u t y N o W mans Against Marshes. ------London, Nov. 9.— (/P)—

.Two Russian Armies com­manded by Gen. Nikolai F. Vatutin, conqueror ^of Kiev, today were pounding west­ward toward the Polish and Rumanian frontiers on the heels of the shattered rem­nants of 12 Nazi divisions— about 180,000 men—blasted from the Ukrainian capital in a four- day battle which ended last Satur­day. One Red Army force waa re­ported surgring forward beyond Makarov, 28 miles west of Kiev, to within 50 miles ,..of Zhitomir, key Junction on one . o f the two last north-south railways avail­

able to the Germans toward the Polish border, 65 miles away.

Within 140 Mile* of FrontierA second Soviet spearhead; was

atriking southwest of Fastov, and a Russian communique said It waa within 140 miles of the Rumanian frontier. This drive apparently waa aimed at enveloping, the countless thousands of Germans still fighting in the area between the Dnieper river and the Black sea.

Still another Russian Army op­erating far to the north In the Nevcl sector wss said in a Moscow broadcast to be at the. gates ot Polotosk, rail junction on the Vntebsk-Riga railway and only 20 miles from the old Polish border.

Stockholm dispatches said the Germans were .evacuating civilians from the HO-mile-wide area be­tween LAke Ilmen in Russia and lAke Feipus on the Estonian bor­der, a possible prelude to a forced German withdrawal from the Len­ingrad front.

A German communique yester­day admitted Naii forces were en­gaged in a "defensive struggle against major enemy forces” in the Nevel sector.

Kiev Breakthrough ExpandedThe Kiev breakthrough waa ex-<

-panded to an 80-mile-long front with the capture yesterday of Gor- nastaipol, 45 miles north of Kiev and 10 miles west of the Dnieper. Here the Russians were pinning German forces back against the almost impassable Pripet marsh country, the Soviet war bulletin de­clared. ; •

Kiev cost the Germans 75,000 dead and 6,‘200 prisoners, Moscow said. The newspaper PraVda added that the enemy fled in panic, throwing away weapons, amniuni-

Nazi Weather Base Wrecked

Destruction o f Center Off Coast of Green­land Told by Knox.Washington, Nov. S—(JV-De-

gtruction o f a German radio and weather base on an island off the coast of Greenland waa reported by Secretary of the Navy Knox today. ■

The small but'weU constructed base, Knox said, indicated a plan tri maintain It permanently. It In­cluded a radio station, power house,, e m e r g e n c y genera­tor and radio tranamitter, defen­sive machine-gun emplqcementa and food supplies. A small- supply ship, anchored in the harbor had telephone comipunications with all principal shore points.

Discovered by Sledge Patrol The German base, the second

destroyed by American fofcea In ered by a United States Army the Greenland area, waa discov- sledge patrol.

The pa^tH waa attacked by the Germans' but mknaged to report

- its discovery, although two of its members were captured and a third, Eli Knudaen, was killed.

The Germans subsequently sent a force againat a small hunting and weather station well abovs the Arctic circle which waa man­ned only by a handful of Danes armed with hunting rifles and pia- tola The Germans attacked with machine-guns in the darkness but most of the Danes escaped.

Subsequently the lieutenant who commanded the (Terman Green­land expedition asked one of his Danish prisoners to.act as a guide .n exploration o f the barren east :oast.

"The Dane, at tbe first oppor- lunity," Knox' said, "overpowered the German officer and, deapi^e the fact It entailed a 40-day trip ay sledge, took him as a priaoner.”

O'Mahoney Says Gov ernment Must Pioneer If United States to Maintain Air Position.iw

Washington, Nov. 9—(/P)— Speed congressional authority for the construction of demonstration plants to produce' gasoline from coal was urged today by Senator O’Mahoney (D., Wyo.) who de­clared the government must pio­neer this field if the United States is to maintain aviation leadership after the war.

Arguing that American petrol­eum reserves are steadily falling off, O'Mahoney said in an address prepared for delivery in.the Sen­ate that unless some way is found to produce synthetic liquid fuel "our supply will not last more than 20 years.”

DenruinAt Likely to IncreaseThe Wyoming senator, who

comes from an oil producing state declared that military demands for gasoline are likerly to increase with the advent of. mass produc­tion of the“lTew' B-29 long rangre bombws and their likely use agatrist Tokyo.

Cabinet Setup Hop es Fading

Sudden Flurry of Activ­ity in Italy Simmers To Political Truce.Italian Government Hcadqusr-

teta In. Southern Italy, Nov. 9 —(>P> — Prospects of assem.bling a patchwork cabinet representing the variou* Italian political fac­tions faded today with Count Car­lo Sforza’s. refusal to join an.v gov­ernment headed, by King Vittorio Emanuclc.

Sforza, pre-Faacist foreign min­ister who returned to Italy receiiV ly after a long sojourn in the Uni­ted ' States, was said to have the support of the leaders of Italy’s six antl-Fasoist political parties.

The Sudden flurry of activity that had sent both the king and Premier Pietfo Badoglio ecurrying to Naples in. an..effort^to broaden the cabinet thus simmere4 down to a political truce baaed on Sfprza’a promise o f "parallel" collabora­tion at least until Rome is retaken by the Allies. *

Offlrial Statement Expertrd It was expected that the Badog­

lio government would make some official statement soon on its plana during the interim:

. Allied officials have been follow­ing a strictly hands off policy. One spokesman indicated that as long as Italian politics do not interfere with military operatt^S and there is no undue delay uf^tqm lpg a representative govemmo1V-„„Jhe Italians would be left alone.

"It all boils down,” he said, “ to a question of whether it is best that a temporary broad-based cab­inet be formed now, which un­doubtedly would have to be changed when Rome is 'reached, or whether it would be better to wait tmtil we get to the capital for a more solid govemmenL”

While the king's position on the throne apparently is secure for the moment, not even the most opti-

London, Nov. 9.—(^)— With American and British troop.s girding swiftly for an invasion of western Europe, the . impression prevailed in London today that the hour for the .second front prom­ised by Marshal Joseph Sta­lin had been advanced mate­rially as a result of the close mili­tary cooperation envisaged at the Moscow conference. Should the blow from the west fall in the im­mediate future, German forces reeling under the mighty Soviet offensive would find themselve.s confronted with another grand as- .sault while still fully engaged in the attempt to stem the onrush- ing Red Army.

Ma,V Not I’aiiKe L'ntll Spring Considering the Russians' past

winter successes, their drive may not pause until spring. Since the spring pause in Russia for the past two years has been a long one—^beginning dbout April and ending in June when tfie ground hardens after the rains— a Brit- ish-American attack during that period would lack the advantage of simultaneous pressure from the east.

Consequently, the most favor­able time for an Invasion of the greatest advantag^\to all three powers would seem to be before the spring lull, or after—and scarcely anyone here b eeves it will be that late., SuggcNt Early .VIlied Hop

London, Nov. 9.—</P)Prime Minister Churchill gravely proclaimed the “ im- Phosphorous pending ruin" of (leriTnahy to

Washington, Nov. 9—(>Pi—The victory - through • air - power the­ory is getting an acid teat against Germany with a definite deadline —a time limit after which, if the effort fails, a ground invasion of western Europe will go forward.

The actual timetable is, of course, a military secret.

But the deadline is the invasion date which was communicated to the Russians. Gen. H. H. Arnold, commander o f U. S. Air Forces, and Britain's Air Marshal Sir Ar­thur T. Harris have until that time t<r try to force Germany’s surrender by use of air power alone.

Lieut. Gen. Ira C.- Eaker, com-, mandcr of U. S. Army Air Forces in Britain, has just told the Brit­ish people that the 8th Air Force now is able to throw as many as 1,000 planes into the air in a single day’s operations. _

To Shatter 90 War Center*On the same program, Marshal

Harris promised to shatter 90 Nazi war centers.

The theory Here is that if 40 per cent of Germany’s productive capacity is knocked out, she must W t .

Um of Russian bases for shut- tle-bb(nbing of Germany may be Involved in the truly "all-out" aerial amault expected to reach a climax shohUy.

The Unite^States has a terrific stake in this tegt of air power. It has been made clMr that Ameri­can troops will makg up the bulk of the invasion Army.xand that the

day, but with all the force of his leadership and language warned that in his belief the Nazis’ defeat could not come before 1944, He asserted sol­emnly that the campaigns of next year might .surpass the tragedies of Waterloo and Gettysburg, that "unless some happy event occurs, on which we have no right to count, 1944 will sec the greatest sacrifice of the British and United States Armies."M’ar hlnchlne Wrecked by RedsThe valiant and brilliant Rus­

sian offensives have wrecked the German war machine and inflict­ed wounds "that may well prove mortal." he declared.

The British war premier a.<isert- ed that the back of the Nazi sub­marine warfare has been broken, and that the devastating air war upon the Reich has "been one of the prime forces in the impending ruin ot the Hitler regime."

In other high points of an ad­dress broadcast to the world Churchill:

Noted that next year is election year in the United States and com­mented; "I am sure I apeak for all those on both sides of the Atlan­tic who mean the same thing and they are numbered in scores of millions—when I say that our su­preme duty, all of us British and Americans alike, is to preserve the goodwill that now exists through­out the English-speaking world and, thus aid our Armies in their g r i i and heavy task."

Vowed again his intention not to "liquidate the British empire."

No Time For Dreams , 'Stated bluntly that this "is no

Hitler Speech Gives Warning

Interjiretefi afi Attempt To Bolster Sagging Morale o f Gerinang.London. Nov. 9.—IJ*|— Adol

Hitler's address yesterday on ^ e 20th anniversary of his abo^ ve Munich beer hall putsch war gen­erally Interpreted here today as an attempt to stir the Gerroiui people to a final effort and bol«er morale sogging under reverse in Russia and Allied. bombings.

Press commentators noted that the Feuhrer, while voicing as usual his own confidence in vetory, ac­knowledged that there were some inside Germany who believed de­feat to be inevitable. He warned that those who lost their nerve would be liquidated, prompting The Daily. Sketch to say editorially;

"Nothing that anyone could say could'ipore damnlngly condemn H itler 's '^ cked dictatorship than his own'' words—that German loyalty will be preserved even if it takes the headsman's axe to do it." '

TTie general theme' of the Speech, coming In the midst of a great military crisis, was that "this time there must be no 1918 betrayal at the Germany Army."

Concede* Heavy Load Borne ; Hitler conceded that the German

people are being called upon to bear a heavy load, bqt he told them that "whatever aacrlflces we have to bear now they are not to be compared with what we would have to bear if we loat this w ar..

"I know that I demand the ap­parent impossible from the battle- front," he asserted, “ but the al­most impossible must force a de- Gtalon In our favor.”

Britons were quick to mark the defenalve tone at Hitler’s utter­ances—-a tone that even crept in­to hia hollow, predictions ot victory.

"However long this war lasts.

Southwest Pacifir Allied Head­quarters, Nov. 9. Phosphor­ous bombs, which look when they first burst like tenacled octopi, then shoot forth smoke and flame, have been added to Rabaul'g de­fenses by the .Tapanese, desperate for ways to prevent that key ba.se from being bombed out of the war. But the relentless Allied campaign moves ahead unchecked.

Headquarters, in listing losses of 6:. .tapanese planes within the past 48 hours, reported that 35 were wiped out Sunday at'Rapkul by Liberators and Lightnings which bored through the fantastic bombs, 50 Zeros and a heavy cur- taln of anti-aircraft fire.

84 Tons of Bombs Drop|>edThe ’ big Liberators exploded 84

tons of Isombs accurately among dispersal bays and installations of the Rapopo airdrome, blowing up nine enemy Ijombers and three fighters on the ground and shoot­ing down 13 Zeros. The Light­nings. at a loss of five of their own forte, shot down 10 other Zeros. Eight other Jap planes probably were destroyed.

The new bag o f between 35 and 43 planes at Rabaui was added to lo.-.-’es there aggregating 800 in de­stroyed and d.imaged within less than a month, rendering that New Britain fortress presently unequal to the ta.sk of formidably restat­ing the Allied invasion of its east­ern approaches on Bougainville.
