The government said It had to reject President Roosevelt's pro posals because It was bound by the armistice convention with Germany and Italy to put French warships in ports of unoccupied Trance to be Immobilized for the duration. (The United States department of state announced July 9 that Admiral Harold R. Stark and Brig. Gen. Charles L. Bolte had been assigned to consult in Lon don with the national committee of the fighting French headed by General De Gaulle "on all matters relating to the conduct of the war." (The announcement and an ac companying memorandum stressed that the purpose was to strengthen military aid to the fighting French, and did not re fer to the controversy over dip lomatic recognition, which the United States has not given the De Gaulle organization.) Two Proposals (Ths state department an scusccd is Washington two days ago that Vichy had already re jected two proposals by Presi dent Roosevelt for removal of the nine demilitarized French naval vessels from the Egyptian war zona. (President Roosevelt proposed that the ships be moved through the Suez canal under American custody to some American or neutral port for interment until after the war, when they would be returned to France. When this plan was rejected, he sug gested that the ships be sent un der U. S. protective custody to Martinique, French West Indian island, for demobilization. Vichy was warned that rejec tion would justify the British in ordering the ships moved or in destroying them if removal or ders were not heeded. RAF Launches Daylight Raid On Germany .

Editorials on News (Continued From Paso One) in Britain is being PRESS AGENTED rather than con cealed. TT Is rather probable that the plan is to let the Russians bleed the Germans white IF THEY CAN DO IT and then to launch an invasion of Western Europe as the finishing blow. That, if it could be got away with, would be perfect from the standpoint of our side. TVHATEVER you do, don't fall into the cynical error of thinking that the British are SHIRKING their share of the fighting. They AREN'T. They DARE NOT. If Hitler were allowed to crush Russia and boom on into the Caucasus and the Middle East, Britain's goose would be cooked pretty brown. That can't be allowed to happen without an ALL-OUT fight. It WON'T be. But the difficulties in the way of an invasion of Western Europe are great. . The PENALTY OF FAILURE would be ternoie. When the die is cast and the in vasion is launched, it must have back of it all the power and all the brains that Britain and Am erica together can put into it. - No mere boy can be sent to the mill. CO if the Russians can hold Hit- ler, don't look for a second front YET. If they CANT, it will be an other story. Something will then HAVE to be done.

Dispatches from the battle front northwest of Moscow for the first time mentioned fight ing east of Rzhev, which is 130 miles from the soviet capital. Operations in that area earlier had been described as southwest of the city. Hungarian troops heavily tup ported by tanks struck at the junction of the Don and Voron ezh rivers southwest of Voron ezh, but the Russians were re ported still holding the city.

Soviet forces engaged the in vaders overnight in the area of Voronezh and to the southeast of Millerovo, it said, and in an other sector "pressed back the enemy to some extent, killing about 350 Germans and destroy ing five tanks." War Contract Agents Admit ; Big Earnings (Continued from Page One) to $613,798 In -1941 by obtain ing war contract"! for 11 manu facturers on a commission basis. "What's your definition of war profiteering?" Rep. Mag nuson (D-Wash.) asked William Scrimgeour, father and founder of the partnership. "I don't think that I have one," Scrimgeour replied. "That's what I thought," ob served Magnuson. The partnership includes Scrimgeour, his wife, and their two sons. Maxwell and C. Bailey Scrimgeour. Chairman Vinson (D-Ga.) an nounced that the committee was going to insist that the govern ment renegotiate army and navy contracts to recapture "com mission fees paid to war brok ers."
