(The following story U by Alvla Steinkopf. formerly of The Associated Press Berlin bureau. Ho returned to thU country recently In tho ex change of Ctrman and Amer ican national!.) By Alvln Steinkopf Wide-World Features New York The Gestapo, Hit ler hatchmen, grow In influ ence and power as the war goes on. In his latest speeches, includ ing the Reichstag address in which he proclaimed war against the United States, Hitler hinted darkly that there if sabotage among the German people. He warned with all the oratorical vigor of which he is capable. that any refusal to give less than everything to the German war effort .will be punished ruthless ly That ominous threat means work for the hatchetmen- There will be more arrests, more mys terious disappearances, more German gentlemen executed to the accompaniment, "shot while resisting police." It's easier that way than to go through the dreary formality of a trial. Don't Believe It All The Gestapo is a group right ly dreaded by many elements in Germany, and thoroughly re spected by any official who has any public post. But for all that, a lot of melodramatic hooey has been written about the Gestapo. It is a police force much like many others. The Gestapo doesn't see everything. It wields no super natural powers. It Is composed of good men and bad. It Is not always Infallible. It Is often Corrupt. Often it is stupid, and in many instances it is not effi cientas, according to modern legend, everything German is supposed to be. A popular impression that Germany is a police-ridden state is approximately correct. The length of your dog's leash is regulated by police order, and the German doesn't mind be cause he has an amazing apti tude for discipline. Millions Unworrled ' But a general impression that the average German wakes up thinking of the Gestapo and that he trembles through the 0 . . . PARK&TILFORD RESERVE km AtK4TllPOtDtttiiiiM !. afvteM.aT Jean Gabln, the most thrilling star discovery since Clark Gable and every bit the man that Gable is, stars with Ida Lupino in his first American film "Moontide," the exciting story of a dock hoodlum and a hash slinger which plays at the Craterian Theatre through Sat urday night. Crowds flocked to the cool theatre yesterday to get their first glimpse of the widely pub licized star and came away more than pleased, according ta reports from the theatre str.'f. day In fear of summary arrest and a dismal, mysterious fate hardly squares with the facts. Millions of Germans give no more thought to the Gestapo than, for instance, the ordinary citizens of Pennsylvania might worry about the state police. The reason for this compla cency on the part of about eighty per cent of all Germans is that they give no offense to the Nazi order. The way to get along with the Gestapo is, first and most important not to be a Jew. And, second, revere Hitler, fear Htmmler and do nothing which might even remotely be interpreted as opposition to any Nazi project. The way to be im mune to the worst the Gestapo can do is to be a member of the National Socialist party. Sleuthing Prevalent The Gestapo gets its lines Into many places. It's conceivable, although not likely, that the jan itor of your apartment is an agent. If you have given any one reason for suspicion your tele phone may be tapped occasion ally and your mail watched. You will not, unless you are a suspect of first importance, be tagged around town, nor is there any special reason for an ordi narily well-behaved man to fear the stranger who may sit with him in a restaurant. There are Gestapo agents in government bureaus. They sit in the foreign office, in many In stances their Identity, unsus pected, watching everyone all the way up to Kibbenlrop. iney have honeycombed the Propa ganda ministry, telling Htmm ler all about Goebbels. The Gestapo makes consider able use of two methods, repud iated In many countries, for keeping tab on the population. The first is employment of agents in businesses, social groups and shops. An Amer ican policeman would call such agents stool pigeons, and they operate in Germany precisely such dubious creatures would act anywhere else. The second method Is collec tion of information by denunciation. The Old Poisen Pen "Reoort your neighbor to the police." the Gestapo advises the German people. "Write an an onymous letter if you prefer to be unidetnified. The method may be abhor rent to a great majority of the people, but it works- It uncov ers all manner of offense against wartime regulations, especially anti-hoarding and rationing. It doesn't add anything to the twectr.ess of life in Germany to realize that every acquaint ance and neighbor is encouraged to spy on you. But now, after Hitler's dire warning against any slackness or opposition, it is inevitable that the Gestapo will bear down more firmly. The Berliner, always imperti nent and disrespectful in his speech, says. "When Hitler barks Himmler bites." TOMATOES THRIVE Weather conditions of the past week have been beneficial to the tomato crop and blossom ing has started in some of the patches. The plants are devel oping fast under the sunshine. The county asent's office re ported today ideal haying con ditions prevailed, and farmers are speeding their crop to barns and stacks. Many farmers plan to work the fourth of July to get their crops under cover. Grain crops are doing well now and some threshing is ex pected to start by July 10. Picking of cherries in large orchards in the Ashland district will start next week. A plenti ful crop is reported but of smaller size than some years. PLAY WITH GUN FATAL Toledo, Ore., July 2.

For AH We Are, and All We Hope to Be MHIS it OUR fight every one .of u and the stake it II "life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness." Boiled down into plain words, men, money and material will win this war without them we must certainly lose all we have built over 166 years and all we hope to achieve in the years ahead. We must have men to shoot and win; we must have money by the billions with which to buy guns, ships, tanks, planes, food and bombs. We must have material with which to forge the tools of war. And so, on this Fourth of July, let u here highly resolve that we will put every extra dollar into War Savings Bonds, every single penny we can spare into War Savings Stamps. Let us seek the salvage and the rubber for vital stock piles. This is OUR fight let us all do OUR part willingly, cheerfully, immediately. Let us, on this Fourth of July, solemnly resolve that each one of us will share the burden of this great struggle so that "this government, of the people, for the people and by the people, shall not perish from the earth!"
