VICHY FOR BASES
IN NORTH AFRICA
By the Associated Press
New York, Nov. 22. (AP
The British offensive in Libya
is resulting in intensified Ger
man pressure on France for air
bases and routes of supply and
reinforcement to withstand the
drive, sources in Europe inform
ed the Associated Press today.
The upshot may be that the
Vichy government of Marshal
Petain will be given a formal
peace settlement to replace the
uneasy armistice which has reg
ulated their relations since June,
1940.
In return, Germany would ex
pect sweeping concessions in
North Africa which would be
useful in fighting the British
drive.
The authorized report from
Vichy today that Marshal Petain
is going to the German-occupied
zone of France soon to meet a
. "high German personage." per
haps Adolf Hitler, strengthened
the opinion of many European
observers that formal adherence
of the Vichy government to the
so-called new order probably
will be announced before long.)
Phoenix, Ariz., Nov. 22. VP)
A young man appeared at the
door of Wixie Cross' service sta
tion early today in near freezing
weather.
"Can I come in and warm my
self?" he asked.
"Sure," laid the obliging
Cross.
Twenty minutes later, appar
ently thawed out, the stranger
confronted Cross with, a pistol.
"I'll take what you have in
that cash register," he an
nounced. Cross again obliged, this time
with $46.
NAZIS BRIEF ON
AFRICAN BATTLE
Berlin, Nov. 22. IIP) A Ger
man high command communi
que gave one paragraph today
to the fighting in north Africa.
"In north Africa, German and
Italian troops since Nov. 19 have
been engaged in a severe battle
on a broad front with strong
British tank units," the commu
nique said. "The battle con
tinues."
Informed sources said German
bombers effectively attacked a
railway line and damaged sta
tion buildings on the north
African battlefront
Similar raids were reported
on British supply dumps, which
these sources declared were
raked by machine-guns from
planes.
- Night attacks were made on
two southeastern English air
bases where hangars were said
to have been set afire.
(The British acknowledged that
"a few bombs were dropped in
southwest England and Wales,
causing little damage and a
small number of casualties.)
FILE PROTEST ON
E
Washington, Nov. 22. lP)
The United States has lodged
a strong protest with the Italian
government against the arrest
and continued detention of the
Fev. Hiram Gruber Woolf of
Elmira, N. Y., rector of St. Paul's
Protestant Episcopal church in
Rome.
Secretary Hull instructed
George Wadsworth, American
charge d'affaires in Rome, to
deliver the formal written pro
test, it was learned today, as
soon as the embassy had made
a full report of all known
circumstances surrounding Mr.
Woolf 's arrest.
Wadsworth made verbal rep
resentations against the clergy
man's arrest on Tuesday, soon
After Italian police, allegedly
under orders from the minister
of the interior, had taken him
into custody at the rectory of
the church.
The embassy was informed at
that time that Mr. Woolf had
been arrested and was held for
investigation "on seriously in
criminating information."
Press dispatches from Rome
reported he was being held
incommunicado on suspicion of
Intelligence activity, but provid
ed no details.

E
OF FLU, ISOLATED,
PHOTOGRAPHED
Philadelphia, Nov. 22
An incredibly small and deadly
bullet-shaped molecule, only
lour-milllonths of an inch thick,
has been branded as the cause
of one of the miseries of man
kind, human influenza.
Its isolation and Its picture,'
taken by the new electron
microscope, were discribed to
day to the American Philosoph
ical society.
Magnified 25.000 diameters
until it shows up as a very
tiny grey dot on a photograph,
the picture is of a deadly speci
men taken from the flu infec
tion which killed a person here
three years ago. It is moreover
the tame kind of flu type A
which spread over the country
last winter.
This molecule, a small bit
of protein, is one of the tiniest
disease agents known to science.
One of the most startling things
to the layman and of profound
significance to medicine about
this flu bullet Is that it is not
a living thing like microbes.
It is able to reproduce Itself,
when in living tissue, but that
seems to be more of a chemical
reaction than a sign of actual
life.
The discovery has opened a
new way to make vaccines
against human flu. A new vac
cine has already been made
which protects animals against
human flu, and experiments are
now starting to learn whether
it will protect man.
The report was made by
Doctors Leslie A. Chambers and
Werner Henle, of the Eldridge
Reeves Johnson Rjsearch foun
dation, University of Penntyl
vania. Collaborating in the pic
ture was Dr. T. F. Anderson of
R. C. A., makers of the electron
microscope.
Washington, Nov. 22. (APV
Representative Jones CR-Ohlo)
said today he had drafted a bill
proposing that the 1942 congres
sional election be held in March
instead of November.
A March election, he contend
ed, would afford a desirable ear
ly expression by the) electorate
on President Roosevelt's foreign
policies.
Under his proposal, the repre
sentatives elected in March
would take their teats the fol
lowing January.

Wild animals flocked to coastal

Mink and otter joined in the

Fishermen from Tillamook
bay to the Alsea river, market
ing the once-despised chum at
an unexpected 314 cents a
pound, added to a record catch.
Already the run has turned a
poor season into the most profit
able in years.
The chum is at the bottom
of the salmon caste. A white
meated fish, averaging 10 pounds
in weight, it once was consid
ered too untasty for man. It
now is canned and smoked, but
until this year the fisherman's
profit, if any, was meager.
Fishermen report another
benefit. Rats have deserted
coastal wharves and can be seen
following the salmon upriver for
miles. It is feared, however, the
rats will return.
Bears, expert fishermen them
selves, are getting fat and lazy.
