IIP) Prima Minister Winston Churchill, expressing British "grief and amazement" at France'! acceptance of German armistice terms, appealed today to all Frenchmen wherever they may be to aid the British fight against Germany as the only hope of France'! eventual restoration to liberty. The prime minister'! state ment, as read over the British broadcasting facilities, follows: "His majesty's government have heard with grief and amaze ment that the terms dictated by the German! have been ac cepted by the French govern ment at Bordeaux. "They cannot feel that such, or similar, terms could have been lubmitted to by any French government which pos sessed freedom, independence and constitutional authority. "Such terms, if accepted by all Frenchmen, would place not only France, but the French empire, entirely at the mercy and in the power of the Ger man and Italian dictators. "Not only would the French people be held down and forced to work against their allies; not only would the soil of France be used with the approval of the Bordeaux government as the means of attacking their In The Day's News'" iMlri'-lfcdi By FRANK JENKINS PRESIDENT Roosevelt names two prominent Republicans Col. Frank Knox, 1938 vice presidential candidate, and Hen ry L. Stimson, Hoover secretary of State to his cabinet; Knox to be secretary of the navy and Stimson to be secretary of war. IT WOULD be WONDERFUL 1 to be able to think of it as having been done solely to in crease national efficiency and weld national loyalty and not as an impish gesture designed to take the wind out of the sails of the Republicans who are Just gathering for their national con vention. ' ' It might be possible to think of it as such if at the same time the President had announced he will NOT ACCEPT a third term. IF THIS small-time writer were advising the Republican par ty, this is what he would tell it to do: 1. Nominate Willkie for Pres ident. 2. Nominate McNary for vice president. 3. Commission Bruce Barton to write the platform. 4. Adjourn quietly and sober ly, and leave the decision to the people. AS TO Willkie: He must have sincerity, honesty, convincing straightfor wardness and GREAT ABILITY or he would not have been able to carry on successfully against a powerful and vengeful gov ernment corporation the TVA. He has unquestionable charm and personality which he Is able to project to the public through the medium of the press and the radio. This writer, who has nev er seen him, has felt these qual ities In him as a result of read ing and listening. He is NOT A POLITICIAN. Thl! writer Is weary of politic ians and their all-things-to-all-men utterances, and senses that the public is in the same mood. AS TO McNary: " He Is able, wise, fearless and TOLERANT. He has skilled knowledge of the Intricate and (In a democracy) NECESSARY machinery of politics. As an adviser and collabora tor for Willkie, he would be In valuable. DRUCE Barton is an advrrtls Ing man who is now a con gressman. As an advertising man, he knows how to say what needs to be said so briefly, so clearly and so convincingly that people will read, understand and BELIEVE. That Is the kind of platform the Republican party must have if it is to win the confidence of the people. If THE Republican party is to win this election. It must con vince the people of the United States that it is sincere, loyal and able to do efficiently and patriotically the big things that In the next four years must be done. This writer believes the pro gram here outlined would help toward that end. Stranded Yankees Washington, June 22. 'Ti The state department acted to day to rescue Americans strand ed In Bordeaux. France: Lisbon. Portugal: and Madrid, Spain af ter fleeing from Hi European war allies, but the whole resources of the French empire and the French navy would speedily pass into the hands of the ad versary for the fulfillment of his purpose. "Hii majesty's government firmly believe that whatever happens, they will be able to carry on the war wherever it may be; on the seas. In the air and upon land; to successful conclusion. "When Great Britain Is vic torious, she will, in spite of the action of the Bordeaux govern ment, cherish the cause of the French people, and a British victory is the only possible hope for the restoration of France and the freedom of its people. "Brave men from other coun tries, overrun by nazt invasion, are steadfastly fighting In the ranks of freedom. "Accordingly his majesty's government call upon all Frenchmen outside the power of the enemy to aid them In their task, and thereby render Its accomplishment more sure and mora iwift. "They appeal to all French men, wfierever they may be, to aid to the utmost of their strength the forces of liberation, which are enormous and which, faithfully and resolutely used, will assuredly prevail."

O t h e r a. called periodic drinkeri, have lucid intervals of from many weeks to as long as a year in which they neither desire nor take alco hol, then wlth O u t apparent cause they sud denly crave It again and go on a bender. In an article on this subject recently I described the char acteristic mental and moral ab normality or weakness of the dispomaniao his or her weil known claim to be able to "take It or let it alone without any treatment or aid by family, friends, relatives, physician spiritual adviser or anybody else who may be concerned about the drinker i welfare. Several anonymous letters ar. riving after that was printed, point out that my description of the mental and moral ab normality or deficiency of the dipsomaniac ia too harsh and that I'd achieve more It I had a little sympathy for these un happy victims of alcoholism. That's why I write on tht subject. I have a great deal of sympathy for the victim of alcoholism the family, the friends and the innocent by standers who suffer in conse quence of the selfish Indulg ence of the drinker, be he or she a steady or a periodic drinker. One professional writer opens his discussion of alcoholism, in a medical work, by observing that the strains and burdens of life are harder for some to bear than they are for others. On "nerves which Inheritance or environment has unfortun ately rendered weak and hyper sensitive" these burdens weigh heaviest. So "it is only human that relief should be sought through draughts which prom ise Increased pore and potions which temporarily benumb pain and banish fatigue and care." Isn't that Just too sweet? Do have another drink, you poor unfortunate. THE CAPITAL PARADE Br JOSEPH ALSOP and ROBERT KINTNEP Released by the North American Newspaper Alliance. Inc. Washington, June 21 At long last. It appears as though the processes of government are really being speeded. The na tional defense program Is be ing expanded so rapidly that congressional leaders are hav ing trouble keeping Informed. Neither the president, nor con gresi nor the military experts foresaw such a decisive German victory, and as a result this country'! re-armament must temporarily be on a day-to-day emergency basis. It took weeks of Oerman victories before many officials realised the danger, but now the terrible shock of the French aurrender and the nasi demand for unconditional capitula tion have belatedly set the sum for quick result. A recent Incident will serve aa a good Illustration of the new trend. For two weeks. William S. Knud sen. th government new armament expert, haa been negotlaung with Henry Ptord for the manufacture of airplane engine. An agreement wa reached on Tuesday and Knudsen called In Alatsunt Secretary of War Louts Johnson to explain what he had don and to ask for some anny order to clinch the deal. While he heartily approved, Johnaqn explained that the war department had only S.IS.000000 for airplane engine and th money waa already allotted. Knudsen and Johnson then and there decided to get more money. The two men called the White Hduse. getting Immediate clearance. Tne White House communicated with the budget bureau and told Budget Director Harold Smith to give his okay. Then, a telephone call was placed to Senator Jamea F Byrnes, of South Carolina, who la handling th aupplemental national defense appropriation bill. Explaining that a sub-committee wa finishing up it work on th bill.

DIPSOMANIACS The attitude of the profes sional writer quoted above should raise in the mind of the discerning reader or student the question of the writer's individual character or habit as regards alcohol, or at least the question of the charactei or habit of his teachers in that respect, for this invariably af fect! views or opinion! of luch a teacher. As far as the prevention and treatment of alcoholism or dip somania ii concerned, when you get so far along that path that you need sympathy for your condition, you had better quit trying to deceive your self and the world around you, for you are indeed a dip somaniac.

Calif. 1 1 plctude of the speed of the national ; aeiense advisory committee and the congressional willingness to cooper ! ate. It lesson 1 obvious the dire ! necessity of adequate appropriations and authorization to gear Industrial i plant to armament manufacture. I Aa Secretary of the Treasury Henry I Morgenthau Jr. recently put It, "We I have to give them cash on the barrel- head." At the time of the French aur render It was reported here that the . president wa now prepared to ask . for "practically unlimited authotlia ! Uona." The predlcuon cam true the following day when Admiral Harold R. Stark presented to congress a 4 000.000 ooo naval expansion bill, or a 70 per cent Increase in our sea strength. An equally necessary and ambitious program ha been prepared St the army. Authorizations totaling several billions of dollars are needed for tanks, tractor, ammunition and the like. For months the war depart ment haa been clamoring for more money, and now the new national defense group Is convinced that It case is a good one. Most military experts believe that It will take between a year and 15 months to get equipment and mech anizuion for an army of I.ooo.ooo men. But If Urge new commitment can be mad now. they predict that within three month after thl orien tation period, auppllea for an army of at least 1 ooo.oco, or even 4.000.000. can be produced. Th fact that cannot be blinked sway, and it la based on th opinion of Informed men. Is that this country will have to spend at least an addi tional S13.000.000.000 in Initial outlay before an adequate two-ocean navy and a mechanized army of sufficient elae to protect the western hemi sphere ran be achieved. Speed la of the essence not only for our re-armament but In order that th British can be given every aid. Recently there was a bit of excite ment over the president's release of JO torpedo boat to th British. The transaction waa a simple one and fully in accord with th White House program of every aid to the ante. It wa recommended to the president by Secretary Morcenthau after he had cleared the transfer with Admiral Stark. The president and Mortenthau are working on a simple premise: The British must be encouraged In every way and they must be comlnced that we will make avaltabi more and more supplies.

Cleans t'm iir Too Let to Cls- nil Ad I 'M p. ov RE PO RTS1 HELD BY BRITAIN Servicing of Fleet Main Problem Gives Edge In Naval Power. Washington, June 22 Great Britain has taken over the bulk of the French fleet intact, authoritative sources in the capital heard today, and with It the problem of servicing a navy whose munitions plants and machine shops are largely in enemy hands. Even as Informed persons re ported that this government had been advised of British ac quisition of the French warships naval engineer! expressed the opinion that most of the ves sels would have only a snort- term or reserve value to Great Britain. Their immediate use fulness, it was suggested, would be limited by the amount of ammunition and spare parts aboard, in accompanying auxil aries or at French colonial bases. To make the French fleet a permanent adjunct of the Brit ish navy, the engineer! said, it would be necessary for Britain to develop an entirely new in dustry a costly and time-consuming operation. There was rejoicing among Allied supporters, nevertheless, because, had the French fleet fallen to the enemy, the com bined German, Italian and French navies would have out numbered the British in battle ships and many other cate gories. Futhermore, naval experts said, Germany was in a posi tion to commandeer support ing French industry and com pel production of ammunition and replacement parts for seized French vessels. Not only has the bulk of the French navy been taken over by Great Britain, it was report ed in reliable quarters here, but a large number of French planes have been flown to Eng land and North Africa. These sources also said that word had been received that France's newest battleship, the Jean Bart, which was ready for commissioning next month, had been towed to England. AIR DAMAGE SUIT Spokane.

Questioned at a press confer ence about th reported Jap anese activities. Secretary of State Hull said he knew noth ing other than these reports, but called attention to his pre v i o u i statements concerning maintenance of the status quo in the Pacific. Tokyo, June 22. (PI Japan plans to deal herself a "stronger hand" regarding British and French 'rjossessions in the annth. em Orient perhaps even to lane direct action against them while the European democ racies are too busv to odiums her, sources close to the gov ernment Indicated today. These circles said Japan's foreign policy had been revis ed, in view of the recent turn of the war in Europe, into a three-point program designed to give her: 1. Closer relations with Ger many and Italy. 2. A itronger position in the southern Orient (where prin cipal Allied holdings are the British colony of Hongkong and French Indo-China.) 3. A negative attitude re garding any American efforts toward rapprochement. In Hongkong, military author ities announced that Japanese troops had begun to occupy areas of South China adiacent to the British colony but said mere was no cause for alarm, stating that the Japanese were cleaning up Chinese guerillas. It is understood that Japan shortly will send Britain a de mand that she stop arms traffic to China by way of Burma and permit Japanese insrectors there also. Some extremist elements In Japan declare that this nation must actually occudv Inrio, China and Burma to protect ner interests. NAVAL DATA EYED BY MR. ROOSEVELT By Douglas B. Cornell. Hyde Park, N.
