; closely many president and
I had been impressed with their
nme of responsibility and as
! itrted that no president had
"rushed this country into war."
"In the light of that," Stlm
I aon said, "while congress could
' take the risk . of naming the
countries, I think that they
could safely rest the responsi
bility of that with the present
president of the United States."
"Fantastic and preposterous"
was Stimson's- description of a
suggestion that the lend-lease
bill was so drawn as to permit
purchase by this country of the
British and French navies.
. Tinkham read to the secre
tary a newspaper story which
quoted unnamed persons as say
ing the bill purposely was
drawn that way.
' ' President Roosevelt at his
press conference a bit later,
said a provision to let the war
and navy secretaries buy war
materials from friendly nations
' was put in the bill as a pre-
. caution.
In a world of change, he told
reporters, every 24 hours some
thing might turn up to make
it necessary to add to American
defenses. Advising against jump
ing at conclusions, he said the
provision was just a precaution
ary measure for American de
fense. .
Joe A. Vlncze, 27, and Henry
Vincze, about 22, brothers, are
in the county jail facing a charge
of grand larceny in connection
with the theft of two truck tires
aid stolen from machine
parked near an old mlllsite on
Topsy grade. Both men have
been in difficulties with county
and city police according to the
latter. Arrests were made by
eity officers.
Joe Vincze claims the tires
were part of a wage claim paid
to him. They were later iden
tified by Ted R. Webb of Keno
as his property. They were al
legedly . sold by the Vincze
brothers to an automobile dealer
for the turn of $16. Joe Vincze
has previously been indicted on
a bad check charge, according
to the district attorney's office.

A royal air force communique
said "a very heavy raid was
carried out by a very large
force" of German Junkers dive
bombers and Italian fighting
planes on Malta and that "civil
ian property suffered consider
ably." The RAF also reported a re
peat raid on the new German
air base at Catania, Sicily, in
which grounded naxi planes were
blown to bits and fires set which
were visible 50 miles away.
Carrier Attacked
Hitler's high command re

British aircraft carrier Illus

striking at the 23.000-ton vessel
aa it awaited repairs at the port
of Valletta, Malta.
The nazl high command said
"several direct hits" were scored
on the Illustrious, and informed
German quarters declared the
craft was now so badly damaged
she would probably be knocked
out of the war.
"Furthermore, numerous
bombs struck the Malta arsenal,"
a nazi communique said, "and a
merchantman was struck direct
ly by the heaviest calibre
bombs."
Bristol Raided
British authorities said "ser
ious fires" were started by nazi
incendiary bombs in the raid on
Bristol but a fire officer declared
60 of the 100 blazes were "put
out in less than 10 minutes."
In London, where two air-raid
alarms sounded before dawn, 200
soldiers and rescue workers dug
all night long with the aid of
screened lights to remove more
bodies from the rubble of a Lon
don men's hostel, bombed Wed
nesday night.
All four floors of the lodging
house were known to have been
occupied when it was hit.
So far, 45 men have been
rescued alive; but while the
search continued, officials said
no faintest sign of survivors had
come from the debris for many
