Authoritative Reports Say
Information Given Knox
When Navy Post Offered
Br D. 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.

Rogue River national forest
headquarters this afternoon re
ported discovery of a small fire
near the shore- of Red lake on
the mountain summit of the
Butte Falls district. The blaze
was caused by an unexting
uished camp-fire, headquarters
said, and an investigation was
being made of recent campers
in the primitive area.
The fire was discovered by
Ranger Waldo I. Petterson as
he was riding range on an in
spection. He reported there was
evidence the campers had put
ttome water on the fire but not
enough to put it out. There was
no excuse for the negligence, for
the whole lake was close by and
thus there was plenty of water
available, headquarters said.
The area is covered with moun
tain hemlock.
Rogue River forest headquar
ters were asked this afternoon
if a time-keeper could be pro
vided from here if needed to
help work on a forest fire on the

er request from Siskiyou head
quarters.

being sent this afternoon to a

4-H'ERS FINISH
read Hitler stepped down from
the car. saluting stiffly.
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.
