Harold Oliver Philadelphia, June 21 () Authoritative reports persisted in Republican circ'is today that President Rook - ilt had assured Colonel Frank Knox that he would not run for a third term at the time he first offered Knox the navy secre taryship. The reports were that Knox had relayed such Information to four men some time ago. and that these four included Alf M. Landon, the 1936 Re publican presidential nominee on a ticket with Knox,' and R. B. Creager, Texas national committeeman. While Landon could not be reached for comment, Creager told reporters here, "There is nothing I can say at the pres ent time." The "no third term" assur ances were reported to .have been given by the president in May when Colonel Knox was believed to have been offered the navy portfolio a second time after he had once de clined it. The third term reports were hinted at In Landon's state ment yesterday in which he spoke highly of the ability and patriotism of Knox and Henry L. Stimson but added that he hoped they had not been misled by such third term assurances as might have been given them. ' district.

Militarr Precision The fuehrer's historic visit to Compiegne was conducted with military precision. He arrived at 3:15 p. m. with his top mili tary leaders as well as Rudolph Hess, his deputy for party af fairs, and Foreign Minister von Ribbentrop. The fuehrer surveyed with interest the railway car, which had been moved out of the special building where the French had enshrined it at the exact spot where it stood when Poch dictated the 1918 armistice terms. Inside Hitler occupied the same seat that had been occu pied by Foch. As he looked out the rail road car window he could see a nearby marble bust of Foch When Hitler left the car, s band played "Deutschland Uber Alles ("Germany Above All ) and the nazi party hymn, the Horst Wessel song. The French representatives were left behind to consider the terms handed them. Tent For French The French officers had been provided a tent for their quar ters outside the railway car. Telephone facilities were in stalled to permit them to can their government. The French listened silently while Keitel read. Then they filed out to their tent to telephone their govern ment. Hitler reviewed an honor guard outside the car while the band thumped out German an thems; then left Compiegne as swiftly as he had arrived. When the French delegates entered the old car. Hitler and his staff rose to greet them in contrast, German officials as serted, to the manner in which the German delegates were greeted in 1918. Then, it was declared, the victorious French did not rise. Hitler and his staff gave the Nazi salute and the fuehrer asked Keitel to read the pre amble. The general Immediate ly began. Beside the officials present, the only others to witness the ceremony were German and for eign newspapermen and officials of the foreign office and the propaganda ministry. Details Undisclosed Only the preamble, with Its statement of broad purposes, was made public immediately. The detailed terms for the ar mistice which the French took to their tent were not disclosed at once. German authorities previous ly had said the terms would not be published until France had accepted or rejected them. After Hitler's departure Kei tel and the general staff officers remained in the railway coach to discuss technical details of the capitulation. The French left the car for the nearby tent where telephone, writing and other facilities were provided them. German sentries stood at all paths leading into the forest and the entire zone was blocked off. Hitler was taken swiftly from j the forest, streaked by the hot sun, its trees shattered anew by : artillery fire. Its soil again soaked with French and Ger man blood. The World war corporal pre sumably returned to his army headquarters to await the fate ful word from the French gov- j ernment. I Thus the day he had promised the German people was partly realized. There still remained the war with Britain, another participant in the "shame of 1918". At 6:10 p.m. the French en voys returned to the historic Foch railway car. DNB said this was to allow them to continue discussions with Keital and oth er representatives of Adolf Hitler.
