Don't Spread Gossip
IN England, after war broke out arrd the enemy was busy
using every conceivable means of getting military and
naval information, a great campaign was waged to stop
careless gossip. People who were in a position to know
omething about military activities, such as the employes
of aircraft and arms factories, were pleaded with to keep

information of any kind that may be of value to the

War Conferences

5oys Roosevelt
I WASHINGTON, Dec. 19 (ff)
President Roosevelt asserted to-
day that conferences bad been in
profress for long time for
iweeks at least among the alliea
combatting tha axis.
He. would not discuss at his
press conference, however, the
ibility of an inter-allied com.
tmand meeting in Washington to
Jwork out a common strategy for
,the conduct of hostilities.
It was learned authoritatively
rbefore Mr. Roosevelt met with
'the press that the United States,
iGreat Britain and Russia were
expected to take leading parts in
,uch a meeting soon.
J Asked about an appointment
ihe had Wednesday with the Aus
jtrallan minister, the president
replied, without elaboration, that
they had discussed common de
fense in a common war.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 19 Mr.
Roosevelt's blunt move to

some abhorrence at the oubct.
