Hitler Hatchetmen To Have

bureau. Ho returned to thU

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

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.

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!"
