"the struggle for our altan and

The king referred to Metaxas as
"He, who with my consent said
a proud 'No' to brazen Invaders
on the historic dawn of Oct. 28.'
The government ordered a na-
Uonal mourning. The funeral
was scheduled for Friday and a
communique said that "every
honor shall be paid him as befits
a cardinal figure in the history of
the land."
King George went to the Me
taxas residence to pay his re
spects and offer condolences to
the family. -
Pledging himself to follow
Metaxas domestic and military
' policies, the king in bis procla
mation declared:
, "I am convinced that, inspired
.,: by the high example of the re-
' cent bright pages of our national
lift and tightly unified around
tj my ' throne, we shall bring the
'gigantic struggle now being

quite unpleasant reaction at the
end of the path."
Gayda said "Cordell Hull
must have known that the
policy of the North American
government long has been vio
lating the elementary principles
of neutrality.
"Violation of neutrality with
out provocation becomes ag
gressive. As such it exposes
one to the legitimate danger
we say legitimate of reaction
from the offended powers."
Gayda asserted that transfer
of American destroyers to Brit
' ain was an example of "open
violation of International law."
The editor drew a distinction
between Washington's position
ana the Tion4eIHKerencv"
which Italy used to 'define her
position before she declared
war last June 10. The Italian
policy, Gayda said, was Justified
by the axis alliance with Ger
many and controversial ques
tions pending between Italy and
the allies.
"These two reasons do not
exist for the United States,"
Gayda asserted. "But North
American policy already is far
beyond that of non-belligerence.
It already is on the edge of
waging war."

LONDON, Jan. 29 (AP) A
British military authority said
today that German infiltration
into Rumania and Bulgaria and
air aid to Italy had become so
extensive that "the very real
danger" of invasion of Britain
may be averted.
This authority asserted that
German mechanics and technical
troops in civilian dress were pre
paring air fields in Bulgaria and
there are eight to ten German
divisions in Rumania.
The German mechanized divi
sion numbers 11,000 and the in
fantry division 15,000.
This source expressed the
opinion that these preparations
might mean a German drive
southward to Salonika, eastern
Greece, thus isolating the Greek
army fighting the Italians in Albania.

Appearing before the senate
foreign relations committee, the
war department chief renewed
his advocacy of the legislation to
meet "the extraordinary emer
gency which the aggressor na
tions have created for this country."
In a formal statement he mar
shaled his additional arguments
for the bill under these headings:
That Great Britain, given help,
was in a position to prevail;
That the axis powers were
vulnerable in many respects;
That international law justi
fies, rather than forbids, full aid
to Britain, and
that the bill is not dictatorial
but the proper action of a demo
cratic government.
While the senate committee
listened to Stimson, the house
foreign affairs committee began
a study of proposed amendments
to the measure in hopes of get
ting it in final shape by tomor

LONDON, Jon. 29 OJ.R) Great
Britain and the United States
are negotiating a for reaching
proposal for Joint economic war
fare against the Italo-Gcrman
axis in an effort to double the
effectiveness of Britain's block
ade, it was disclosed Tuesday by
economic experts.
under the plan being dis
cussed In London and in Wash
ington, all German assets In
the United States would be
"frozen" by order of President
Roosevelt, and ships trading
with the axis would be denied
entry to U. S. ports throughout
me world.
Protests Made'
Disclosure of the negotiations
came after Britain's minister of
economic warfare, Hugh Dalton,
told the house of commons repre
sentations have been made to
Washington and Moscow against
increased American exports to
Russia which indirectly aid Ger
many's war effort.
Because of the shipment of
united states cotton, copper,
orass, wneat and oil drill ne ma
chinery to Vladivostok and other
soviet ports. Dalton said. the
Kussians are able to release do
mestic supplies to Germany.
ine minister of economic war-
ware also said Italy and Ger
many are doing their utmost to
acquire foreign exchange, such
as dollars, to "undertake many
most undesirable activities'
undoubtedly a reference to pre
dictions of an all-out nazi blitz
krieg against Britain this spring.
fians lor the Joint Anelo-
United States economic warfront
were described in reliable Brit-
ish quarters as involving "a
code of conduct for enjoyment
of the facilities of international
trade."
The foundation of the Dlan. as
outlined by authoritative eco
nomists here, rests with the
United States' right as a free
nation to deny financial and
commercial facilities which ben
efit interests "acting contrary to
ine democratic system."

Jackson, Josephine, Lane, Lin

"The Lane county proposal,"
Rep. James A. Rodman (R-Lane)
said, "is the most logical be
cause It would provide the most
even distribution of population.
There would be 274,000 persons
in the new first district, and
246.000 in the new fourth dis
trict. Also, both the university
and state college would be In the
same district, which is as it
should be.
Rep. William M. McCalllster
(R-Jackson) said, however, that
the southern Oregon plan would
"give southern Oregon the rep
resentation it deserves. For too
long, we have been the tall end
of the Willamette valley s kite."
Under the southern Oregon
plan, there would be 339,000 per
