Hitler reviewed an honor
guard outside the car while the
band thumped out German an

wiftly as he had arrived.
Rosa in Greeting
When the French delegates en
tered the old car, Hitler and his
staff rose to greet them in con
trast, German officials asserted,
to the manner in which the Ger
man delegates were greeted in
1918. Then, it was declared, the
Victorious French did not rise.
Hitler and his staff gave the
nazi salute and the fuehrer ask
ed Keitel to read the preamble.
The general immediately began.
Beside the officials present,
the only others to witness the
ceremony were German and for
eign newspapermen and officials
of the foreign office and the
propaganda ministry.
Only the preamble, with its
statement of broad purposes,
was made public immediately.
The detailed terms for the
armistice which the French took
to their tent were not disclosed
at once.
German authorities previous
ly had said the terms would not
be published until France had
accepted or rejected them.
A guard greeted the fuehrer
as he arrived at the railway car.
Views Monument
After saluting the Alsace-Lor
raine monument, Hitler walked
down a long lane In the hot sun
to where another monument to
Marshal Foch stands in commenv
oration of the 1918 armistice.
With arms folded, Hitler look
ed at the inscriptions, then
quickly entered the car.
Dr. Paul Schmidt, the fuclv

French translation of the pre
amble after the German version
was read by Keitel.
After Hitler's departure Kei
tel and the general staff officers
remained in the railway coach
to discuss technical details of
the capitulation.
At 4:24 p. m. (8:34 p. m. PST)
the French left the car for the
nearby tent where telephone,

he was opposed to "stripping
our defenses to aid the allies."
Probe Advised
"We should learn if that Is
true," Vandenberg said, adding
that the views of Stimson on
the samo subject also should be
learned.
Senator Clark (D-Mo.) broke
in to suggest that the White
House make public Woodring's
letter of resignation. Ho con
tended the White House state
ment that the Woodring letter
was "too personal" to give out
was a "subterfuge."
In the house. Rep. Carlson
(R-Kan.), asked a congressional
investigation of what he termed
Woodring's "dismissal." His res
olution also contemplated that
the investigators "determine
what influences are at work in
our nation to involve us in the
European war."
The senate military commit
tee today ordered hearings on
President Roosevelt's nomina
tion of Henry L. Stimson to be
war secretary, and Stimson
himself will be called to testify
As a momentus senate debate
over foreign and defense poli
cies shaped up around the Stim
son appointment and that of
Col. Frank Knox to be secre
tary of the navy, it appeared
there would be no action on
confirmation for more than a
week.
Republicans Call Probe
Chairman Sheppard (D-Tex.)
said that Stimson would be
called for testimony "in a week
or so" and it was expected to
be at least that long until the
naval committee acts on the
Knox nomination. The naval
group will hold its first meet
ing on the subject tomorrow.
Members of the military com
mittee said that demands for
hearings on Stimson came chief
ly from republicans but that
once such a procedure was de
cided upon there was no oppo
sition to calling the nominee
himself.
Both Stimson and Knox are
in frank agreement with Presi
dent Roosevelt s program of ma
terial aid to the allies.
To critics who charged that
he was setting up a "war cab
inet," the chief executive re
plied in a statement last night-
The appointments to the
cabinet are in line with the
overwhelming sentiment of the
nation for national solidarity in
time of world crisis and in be
half of national defense and
nothing else."
The surprise nominations,
which flabbergasted many mem
bers of both major parties both
in and out of congress, brought
immediate speculation that cab
inet reorganization might be
continued with retirement of
Miss Frances Perkins as secre
tary of labor. There was no

SPRING PEEPER IS FROG
Hyla crucifer, a small frog
frequently found in the spring

name is derived from the shrill
peeping sound, which can be
heard half a mile away. Only
the males of the species peep.

According to the army air

In order to obtain more ac

the new Boeing Stratoliner, a

Delegates elected the follow
ing to the referendum election
counting board: J. W. MacClem
ents and Alice Wesllng, hoth of
Portland; C. L. Jolly, Oregon
City.
A strong stand favoring the
national defense program, voic
ed repeatedly during the con
clave, will be carried on by a
national defense committee,
created by passage of a resolu
tion Friday morning. President
Gurske announced the appoint
ments will be announced next
week In Portland.
The delegates also adopted a
resolution opposing sale or
transfer of American ships to
foreign registry unless replaced
by ships made by American
workmen. This resolution was
adopted as a substitute to a
resolution which sought a new
trade agreement with Japan.
Other resolutions were adopt
ed asking vigorous organization
or unorganized workers, with a
plea for immediate organize
tlonal work In the Rogue River
valley, and thanking the city of
Klamath Falls, local labor or
ganizations, the school board
press and radio for courtesies
and facilities extended during
the convention.
The executive board Is also
considering resolutions con
demning the federal government
for its classification of laborers
on a Panama Canal project, op
posing a ban on dog races in
Oregon, and seeking alterations
In the federation's per capita
tax.
Biggest stumbling block to an
early end of the five-day meet
ing was a PUD controversy,
which was closed Thursday
after two hours of argument
when the delegates voted adop
tion or a minority report ap
proving the formation of Public
Utility districts "so long as the
Interests of all organized labor
in Oregon are protected."
Fred Irwin, business agent of
the Portland Electrical Workers
union. No. 125. took the lead in
arguments against endorsement
of PUD until safeguards are
placed in the state law guaran
teeing the rights of workers. He
charged that sponsors of the
measure approved all of labor's
demands except that part guar
anteeing a signed contract.
"We have never issued a state
ment aglnst public ownership,"
he said. "We realize labor is
friendly toward public owner
ship and we are too when we
can get results."
Others opposing the measure
were J. Scott Milne, Portland,
vice president of the electrical
workers of the Pacific coast, and
G. O. Hunter, vice president of
the Portland central labor coun
cil and executive board member
of the state federation.
Tha adopted resolution fol
lows: "Whereas, tha full bcnoflts of
Bonneville power have not and
cannot accrue to the people of
Oregon except by non-profit dis
tribution, and whereas, low cost
power is of vital Importance to
the future Industrial wclfuro of
Oregon, so that Oregon Industry
may maintain adequate wage
scales and yet compete with
other sections of tha northwest,
therefore be it resolved by this
Oregon Stato Federation of La
bor In convention assembled in
Klamath Falls, Ore., ro-assert-
Ing our former stand on the dis
tribution of publicly produced
clectrlciil energy, approve the
formation of People's Utility
districts in Oregon, so long as
the Interests of all organized
labor are protected."
Heated argument preceded
adoption of a constitutional
amendment requiring all dele
gates or their alternates to be
citizens of the United States
and not a party to or believer
in tho precepts of any subvers
ive organization.
Opponents to the amendment
asserted that many AFL organ
izations are International In
scope and that delegates there
fore must include aliens. They
argued, further, that the AFL
would take action to overrule
the amendment.
A roll-call vote passed the
amendment 131 to 20.
Another Important constitu
tional ajnendment was passed
providing two-year terms of of
fice, Instead of one-year terms,
for officers of the state federa
tion. The vote was 137 In favor
and 14 against the amendment
takes effect In 1941.
By a vote of 108 to fl, delegates
passed another amendment to
require withdrawn or suspended
unions to pay the current month
per capita tax and a sum equival
ent to two months before being
readmitted.
MOST PRECIOUS STONE
The emerald is the most pre
