SLOVAK PATRIOTS
BATTLE GERMANS
REBOUND
Martial Law Proclaimed
Panic Hits Cabinet; Re
port Nazis Revolt.
London, Aug. 12 flJ.R) The
Czechoslovak puppet govern
ment proclaimed martial law
throughout Slovakia today after
patriots clashed with German
troops retreating from Poland
through the Carpathian passes
and attacked Nazi military
transport and supply dumps.
A u t h oritatlve Czechoslovak
sources said underground infor
mation had reported revolts
among German troops billeted
in Slovakia and among Slovak
troops who refused to be sent to
Italy and Romania to bolster the
wavering Nazi forces.
Meanwhile near panic seemed
to have seized the Slovak cabi
net, and the German Transocean
News Agency reported in a dis
patch from Bratislava that the
death penalty had been decreed
for anyone caught taking part
in "revolutionary activities, rob
bery or sabotage of transport,
communications and health serv
ices." A Czechoslovak spokesman
said that patriots for the past
three weeks have been carrying
out large-scale sabotage attacks
against German military trans
port and that there have been
numerous open clashes between
patriots and Germans who now
have taken over til the frontier
area between Poland and Slo
vakia. Information from the Czecho
slovak underground reaching the
exile dgovernment here said rov
ing bands of guerrillas are wag
ing war against German troops
retreating through the Carpath
ian passes as the Soviet armies
approach the Slovak frontier.
Postwar Jobs
Babson Says: "Prepare for Them Now"
Babson Park, Mass., Aug. 11
(Special Correspondent) Many
Inquiries are coming to me from
the families of servicemen re
garding what their boys should
do after returning home. Of
course most of those who left
good positions will be taken back
by their old employers. On the
other hand, a larger percentage
of the men in our armed forces
never had worthwhile, if any.
positions. To these men I make
the following suggestions:
A prominent magazine which
was especially interested in de
veloping national advertising
once employed me. The publish
ers were especially desirous for
me to discover some product not
now profitably marketed After
three months of intensive study
I was forced to report that I was
unable to find a single industry
in which some concern, some
where, was not already making
millions. This included every
thing from cradles to coffins.
This is even more true today
than it was at the time of this
study. It shows that success de
pends upon the man rather than
industry in which he is engaged
or the locality where he works.
This is especially important for
young men to remember in this
new age when they expect
everything to be planned for
tec
them and when they will tem
porarily be seeking security
rather than freedom.
What About
Small Business?
Opportunities are found every
where for those with integrity,
industry and the pioneering
spirit. This will be truer after
the war ihan ever before al
though the temptation to "let
George do it" will also be far
greater. Although the small busi
nessman has a harder row to hoe
than the big corporations, yet
there may be more opportunity
for the individual with the small
businessman. This is probably
what the Reader's Digest has in
mind in offering $25,000 in
prizes in its August issue. The
published answers to this inquiry
will be very interesting.
The big business corporation
has a momentum which carries
it along through the power of or
ganization and money together
with the ability to use national
advertising profitably. It is not
so dependent upon the energy
and imagination of any one in
dividual. The small businessman,
however, is absolutely dependent
for success upon a few excep
tional men. Although as an in
vestor I prefer to put my money
into a '.arge corporation, yet as
a returning serviceman I would
seek to help some small business
man. Telephone Directories
Aid In Selecting Job
I understand that it Is diffi
cult to send a book to a service
man unless you have a letter
from him asking that it be sent.
If you think your boy is wonder
ing what he is to do when he
gets back, have him ask you to
send him a Classified Telephone
Directory for your city. These
directories may be little gold
mines "for those who are willing
to study them. When someone
asks for my idea as for what he
is best fitted. I give him a classi
fied telephone directory and
suggest that he read it through
as to headirgs while waiting in
my office. This very often solves
his problem so that he does not
need help from me.
There will' be a great tempta
tion after the war for returning
soldiers to get into politics or
labor unions or farmers' leagues
or something of the kind to "se
cure justice for the serviceman."
Some of these organizations may
have been useful in the past; but
those men will get on best in this
postwar era who depend more
on their God and themselves and
less upon politics and man-made
organizations.
May I add one more sugges
tion without being misunder
stood? Many prayers are said in
vain. American and German
boys cannot expect God will an
swer the prayers of both groups
when they pray for victory. Both
American and German boys,
however, can logically pray for
peace and for guidance as to
what they should do after peace
comes. Hence, my final advice
regarding postwar Jobs is that
the family should take God into
their confidence more. Don't try
to decide this or any other im
portant question alone.
HALL OF "PASSES"
Hollywood, Aug. 12 U.R
Band leader Tommy Dorsey late
todsy accused handsome Film
Star Jon Hall of "making passes"
at his beautiful wife, Pnt Dane,
at a party in his apartment that
preceded a bloody battle on the
balcony outside.
"It was very embarrassing for
her," Dorsey said as he appeared
at the district attorney's office
to make a formal statement on
the fighting a week ago tonight
that resulted in a smashed nose
and deep cuts for Hall.
"I was on the verge of order
ing him to leave. But I have
known Hall's wife, Frances
Langford, for a long time and
hesitated. We were all relieved
when Hall finally left."
Dorsey said that Hall returned
a few minutes later and put his
arm around Miss Dane when she
answered the door.
"He held her." Dorsey said,
"as she tried to draw away and
began running his hands over
her body."

The F. E. Samson Co., In
order to afford the most modern
seed cleaning facilities for grow

"Oliver" separator at the local
mill. This will be in addition
to a large capacity cleaner and
draper machine. The "Oliver"
separates seed by gravity, an
air cushion floating lighter
weight seeds to one end of the
table. Mr. Samson points out
that proper separation of this
kind converts mixed seed, worth
a mediocre price, to top quality
seed, bringing premium prices.
Installation of the "Oliver"
separator and other equipment
will make his plant one of the
most modern in the state, Mr.
Samson said.
The seed cleaning will be In
charge of Bill Wahlert who
came here recently to head that
department. Mr. Wahlert, who
has purchased a home here,
spent 15 years with large seed

FOOD
GO?
One of the four freedoms we are fight
ing for is FREEDOM FROM WANT.
To many millions this is the most im
portant of the four freedoms because
when there is no FREEDOM FROM
WANT, all history tells us that
"Freedom of Speech", "Freedom of Worship" and
"Freedom from Fear" do not long endure. This is why
the Food for Freedom program in our country is so vital
to victory.
Our farmers have a real job on their hands, a job
such as no agricultural people have ever been asked to
do, but our farmers are better equipped to ao this job
than any people in all history. In many agricultural
countries older methods are still used such as were used
here even over a 100 years ago.
A War Record!
SINCE the beginning of this world crisis, all the men
and women of Minneapolis-Moline have dedicated
their unswerving efforts to an all-out Victory pro
gram. As early as 1938, Minneapolis-Moline was working
on the conversion of a farm tractor to serve our Armed
Forces, and many of these MM military tractors are now
serving on foreign battlefields. These MM tractors
were the first military vehicles to be called JEEPS.
Minneapolis-Moline was one of the first 45 firms in
the United States to be awarded the United States Mari
time "M" Pennant, the Victory Fleet Flag, and Maritime
Labor Merit Badges for its employees by the United
S tates Maritime Commission in recognition of Minneapolis-Molina's
outstanding production achievements in
helping build Victory Ships. When Minneapolis-Moline
was awarded the Army-Navy "E", it became the first
farm machinery company and ono of the very few com
panies in the entire United States to be awarded both
the Maritime "M" and Army-Navy "E" both for High
Quality and High Production Achievements.
