In The
Day's
News
Br Frank Jenkins
THERE are Interesting hints In
the news today (Tuesday)
and not much else.
THE heavy lighting in Libya
appears to be taking place
about 10 miles south of Tobruk
British front line dispatches say
the Germans are being gradually
cut off from their supplies by
the British column advancing
along the Mediterranean coast
line. Cairo says the three-day tank
battle is beginning to die down
as a result or neavy losses on
both sides. British infantry re
inforcements are said to be pour
ing Into the area.
. Cairo claims the German tank
forces are badly crippled and
says there are NO SIGNS OF
FRESH GERMAN TROOPS be
ing sent into action.
WATCH this point. It's all-
important.
If Hitler is unable to reinforce
his Germans in Africa and has
to stand by and see them wiped
out. it will be the FIRST time
inch a thing has happened.
It would be an almost certain
sign that he has his hands com
pletely full.
THERE'S another Interesting
hint in today's news. j
Monday's dispatches told of
tremendously increased German
pressure on Moscow, carrying
the nazi advance to within 30
odd miles of the soviet capital.
Today the Russians claim an
advance of SIXTY MILES in a
rounter-attack westward from
Rostov, at the far southern end
ot the long battle line.
.
TPHAT might mean that in
order to bolster their attack
on Moscow the Germans had to
weaken their lines before Rostov.
This (if true) would be another
sign that Hitler is running short
of reserves.
WHATEVER you do, DON'T
jump to the conclusion that
Hitler has shot his bolt and is
losing his striking power. That
would be wishful thinking of
the sappiest sort.
But at least these SEEMING
failures to be there "fustest with
the mostest men'- are Interesting.
"THERE are hints from Wash-
ington today that sending V.
S troops to Dutch Guiana is in
tended to head off something
that might happen in French
Guiana.
Your map will show you that
Dutch and French Guiana lie
side by side at the northeast
corner of South America., There
have been plenty of hints that
Vichy France may throw in with
Hitler.
Hitler, of course, would like
nothing better than to start
something in South America.
rVN. the home front, this dis-
patch comes from Washing
ton: "President Roosevelt told con
gress to start writing its own
ticket today on strike-curbing
legislation."
Key house members Republi
cans as well as Democrats with
whom he conferred last night re
port that he appears to favor
suggestions for a cooling off
period and COMPULSORY ar
bitration when strike calls
tnreaten defense production,
A LONG that line, the Office of
" Production Management has
sent a trouble-shooter to St.
Louis, where an intra-union jur
isdictional row has called out
8.500 men and tied up many im
portant defense orders.
Today's dispatches report:
"Joseph Keenan, OPM labor
expert, has arranged a confer
ence (at St. Louis) with officials
of the AFL machinists and the
AFL hoisting engineers unions.
'The two unions were in dis
pute as to which should repre
sent TWENTY-FOUR garage
workers."
o
A GREAT many people will
believe that a dispute in
volving representation of 24
men hardly Justifies calling 8,
500 men out on a strike involv
ing defense production.

"To be prepared for war is one of the
most effectual ways of preserving peace ..."
When George Washington spoke
these words the world was a much
smaller place. Transportation and
communication facilities were such
that it took considerably longer for
anything to happen than it does
today.
But there are certain thoughts
that were as true then as they are
now. This "preparation for war
for the preservation of peace" is
one of them. That is why the
United States is hurrying to make
itself the strongest nation on earth.
Your newspaper plays an Im
portant part in the preservation of
peace by keeping its readers in
formed of their country's progress
in preparation of war. Under the
freedom guaranteed it in the Con
stitution, the American Press fear
lessly voices the sentiments of the
American people.
