(if) Coin cident with the arrival of Sir Stafford Cripps, British ambas sador to Moscow, usually re liable sources said they had re ceived reports Germany was massing troops, guns and planes in Poland and Rumania for a "war of nerves" designed to squeeze important concessions from Soviet Russia. Russians in London said they knew nothing of these reports but opinion was expressed In other quarters that Sir Stafford, who arrived yesterday, would b consulted about them. No one in the British capital specified what Germany hoped to get from Russia by the report ed show of strength at Krakow, in occupied Poland, and in Ru mania, but speculation centered around oil and the great Ukran lan wheat fields. (Turkish and foreign quarters exchanged reports in Ankara a week ago today saying that Ger many was putting heavy pres sure on Russia for access to the wheat granaries of the Ukraine, even going so far as to plan a Joint German-Ruman invasion by mid-June). New York, June 13 (IP) The British radio quoted a Moscow radio report today to the effect that the Caspian sea flotilla of the Soviet, fleet had lust com pleted extensive maneuvers which showed that it "is fully prepared to meet any emer gency." The British broadcast was heard here by CBS. ISO Enrolled For SOCE Summer Work Southern Oregon College of Education, Ashland, June 13 (Spl.)

Kelly's Comment rrom Washington Defiant CIO Hed Known At Red Unionist Freytag Alto On List Termite Actions Becoming Known Br Joba W. Rally Washington, D. C, June 13 When O. M. Orton, representing the International Woodworkers of America (CIO) defied the gov ernment of the United States and implied that the defense media tion board was trying to disor ganize labor it caused no sur prise to the house committee investigating un-American activ ities. The committee (popularly known as the Dies committee) has known Orton as a commu nist for years and knows that in defying the government he was following the party line. Fur thermore, the committee knows and names the leaders of other strikes on the Pacific coast, strikes which tied up hundreds of millions of dollars of war orders. In contract with the CIO log gers and millmen of Puget sound, some 20,000 of whom have gone on striking and who, through Orton, refused the me diation of the board, the Co lumbia river loggers have re ceived a pat on the head and the blessings of the board for com pliance. On October 24, 1938, the Dies committee notified congress that Orton was a communist and lived at Aberdeen, Wash. For this statement the committee was ridiculed by a number of high government officials, for in those days the reds were more than tolerated by the ad ministration. Shortly before the strike of CIO loggers in Wash ington state member of the committee again directed atten tion to Orton's connections with the communist party. This was on April 3 (speech in Congres sional Record) and the strike started early in May. That isn't all congress has been told about Orton. Repre sentative Dies alleged three months ago that Orton was one of the CIO leaders sponsoring the American Peace Mobiliza tion. Last week the committee received testimony that the American Peace Mobilization was organized by communists and is controlled by them. Day and night, 24 hours a day, the "mobilizers" have been picket ing the White House for more Ithan a month. The pickets, ! carrying banners, are usually ; youngsters of high school age land elderly women. They are tempting to foment civil war. Being good organizers, they moved in when the CIO was being formed and had them selves elected to responsible paid for picketing and some of I positions. When the Dies com- the money has come from theimittee began its expose years CIO seamen's union. I PRESIDENT of the United Automobile Workers, which has 1 tied up airplane orders at the i North American plant, Ingle ; wood, Cal., is Elmer J. Freytag. ! Under oath last week at a Dies 'committee hearing, Freytag was forced to admit he registered , as a communist voter in Los Angeles In 1938. Chief organ izer for CIO on the Pacific coast is Lou Michener, who came to Washington with Freytag. Back in August, 1938, Michener was identified as a communist by completely equipped are 14,000 ago it was ridiculed, but the prophecy that chickens would come to roost is now being borne out. Congress is on the verge of doing something dras tic if these strikes are not stopped. WHEN the 41st division (MaJ. Gen. George A. White) receives 100 percent equipment on a priority it will know that it is marked for a foreign expedition as a "task force," which is the 1941 name for American Expe ditionary Force. First to be the committee on un-American activities. A few days ago the committee obtained a photo static copy of Michener's party membership book. Two CIO members came to Washington and testified to the communist control of their union; told of their fight to get rid of the Freytags, etc. Scarce ly had these witnesses returned to Los Angeles than one was beaten up by a goon squad; the other had two telephone warn ings that his house would be dynamited. The strike in the aluminum plants in Cleveland, Ohio, is now being led by Alex Bilant, exposed as a communist by the committee in August, 1938. Dies committee has been denounced, very recently, by Philip Mur ray, head of CIO, when the committee called attention to these communist organizers. But wiieu O. M. Orton charged the Defense Mediation board with being labor-busters, Murray said Orton's accusation was "lying defamation." IT may appear, to some, that there is too much harping on the communists in this column, but slowly the facts of these termites in organized labor are coming to the surface. They are responsible for many of the . strikes which have delayed pro- ' duction; they are striving to ' break down the morale of the American people; they are at-1 men at Camp Devens, Mass., all regulars, but Chief of Staff Marshall hints that a few good national guards In the service are also on his list. More trans ports have just been taken over by the army, including boats from the Matson and President lines on the Pacific coast. WASHINGTON GRANGE NAMES NEW MASTER Ellensburg, Wash., June 13.
