Attack on Communist Russia Gains Sympathy for Nazis In Parts of Latin America By Lawrenee S. Haas (United Press Latin American Editor) The German invasion of Russia has been responsible for considerable confusion . among several Latin-American coun tries. With few exceptions, eom-l munlsm has been regarded, at least in government circles, and certainly among all conserva tive and q u a s i -conservative classes, as a greater menace to Latin American institutions than naziism and fascism. Little Voice Throughout Latin America, communists have had little voice in government. Except for Chile (wnere communists nave j Atlantic City, N. J..

"The present national emer gency makes even more impera- sympathizers in South America and it was a potent weapon for militant pro-democratic organi zations to enlist numerous doubtful persons. The newest turn of events in the European military panorama, however, may cause a sharp about-face on the part of certain segments in the antl-nazi movement wno were never more than luke warm at best, and It gives axis propagandists and agitators new ammunition for their cause. Crusader Theme Voiced They can picture Adolf Hit ler as a crusader engaged in destroying the peril of a Bolshe vik world hegemony and this Idea seems to have taken hold in some quarters already. The conservative Catholic news paper, El Debate, Quito, Ecua dor, has stated that "in the struggle between Germany and Russia ... we are with Ger many and we desire her triumph." Although such statement of svmoathy may not become wide-spread In Latin America, it would not be surprising If an undercurrent of similar feel ing should develop in many Quarters. So far as governments are concerned, it is likely that the United States policy toward the Russo-German phase of the war will be closely scrutinized and that no official action or declaration of policy will ensue to provide a clash with the United States course. ARMED FORCES TO USE OF GLIDER Phoenix, Ariz. OJ.RV One of the major factors neglected thus far In U. S. defense efforts is training of glider pilots and use of the sail-plane as a military weapon, according to Lewis B. Barringer, authority on motor less craft and holder of the world altitude record for glid ers. Glider training, he said, would provide at minimum expense a huge reserve of young men, well grounded In the fundamentals of flying, from which could be drawn fighting pilots, gunners bombardiers, and observers for the regular air corps at wall as other flying personnel. He urged establishment of government . operated training centers for glider pilots, similar to ones used to train cadets in fighting planes. In addition, he advocated formation of glider clubs by youths interested in aviation. The glider, although It looks harmless In comparison with a 400-mile-an-hour fighter plane or a heavily-armored bombing plane, is used successfully as an offensive weapon by the Ger mans, Barringer said.

Asserting the society faced "a greater task" than it did more than two decades ago before the last world war, Dr. Poling said: "For every saloon of 1911," he said, "there are now at least three similar, or worse, places of liquor sale. There is work for us to do. Here and now we renew our pledge, rededicate ourselves to the solution of the liquor problem, and here we shall make our plans to con tribute our maximum service in the Interests of a sober America."
