He sees no. possibility of a popular revolt against the Japa nese military dictatorship. Nor does he see any possibility of an economic collapse in Japan. We might as well make up our minds, he says, that Japan will ' have to be defeated in war. pearl Harbor and the ensuing swift campaigns in the Philip pines, Malaya, the Dutch East Indies and Burma were no swift ly impulsive developmert on the part of Japan, Dr. Fisher told his ' audience. Preparation for all of these campaigns was going on openly in Japan during nearly all the years he was there, even to the green paint on the faces of Japan's jungle soldiers. Years ago, he says, he saw the tactics for these jungle campaigns being practiced openly in and near japan's great cities and heard Japanese military and naval of ficers laugh derisively when the British turned the guns of their great citadel at Singapore to the aea only. They were even then planning to take Singapore from , the rear. Preparation t Years before the war began in Europe uie japs were teacn. ing their soldiers to swim in heavy field equipment so that Hongkong and Singapore could be taken from across the water ' when the time came. All this he cited as evidence of the long preparation they have made for the war. Russia and Japan, he said in answer to questions, are heredi tary enemies, and their present non-aggression treaty is merely a truce that deceives neither side. The Western Aleutian Is- lands, he thinks, must be re taken from the Japs at whatever cost may be necessary, as they are not only advanced bases for invasion of Alaska, which is del Initely on the Japanese program but in addition are flank threats to any help we may try to give to Russia as well as listening posts to detect and report hours in advance American Dooming expeditions against Japan, thus warning the Japanese of the ap proach of our bombers and enao ling them to be ready. No Lot for Nails Japan has no love for Ger many, he answered a questioner, and whenever the interest of the two come into conflict there will be war. Japan, he says, en leteti the axl In piqua because of her treatment as an inferior race by Britain and the United States. As proof of his assertion that no love is lost between trie uer mans and the Japanesehe cited the fact that large numbers of Jews have found sanctuary in Japan and receive protection despite angry protest by Ger many. Siberia, Australia and Alaska, he told his hearers, are all def initely within the orbit of Ja pan's war alms, and can not be dismissed as scenes of future con flictwhich may begin any lime. Dr. Fisher was introduced by Pelos Mills, president of Rotary, who In turn was introduced by Lee Jacobs. VITAL STATISTICS KERR Born at Klamath Val y hospital July 30, 1342, to jlr. and Mrs. Ray H.

That one was named by Col onel Kenneth Royall, one of the officers assigned to defend the eight nazis before the pane! of seven generals, was Edward John Kerling. Portugal Address Kerling, leader ot the group of four explosive-laden men who landed from a submarine at Ponte Vedra, Fla., had an ad dress in Portugal which could be used as a relay point for com munications intended for Ger many. Attorney General Biddle, dis cussing the validity of the mil itary commission established by President Roosevelt to try eight alleged nazi saboteurs, told the supreme court today that the president could not be made answerable to it while acting as commander-in-chief of the na tion's armed forces. He expressed this view in response to a question by Justice Jackson while arguing in opposi tion to a petition by seven of the eight nazis who came from Germany by submarine for a writ which would take them out of the custody of the military commission before which they are on trial for their lives. The central issue before the court is the contention of coun sel for the prisoners that a prcsi dential proclamation denying them the use of the civil courts and ordering a military trial is "totally Invalid and unconstitu tional."

TF Zhuravlev were an American or British commentator, writ ing for an Independent press, he might be put down as just I another wishful thinker. 1 But he is a RUSSIAN. And j he is writing for a RUSSIAN newspaper. All Russian news papers are under the thumb of Stalin, and ANY of their writers I can be shot before a wall if j Stalin so commands. And Stalin is today calling on ; all Russians to emulate their j great national heroes and give their last drop of blood if necessary to stop the invader and save Stalingrad. Far from minimizing the gravity of the situation, he EMPHASIZES it. One can only fall back on the bromide that Russia Is an un fathomable mystery.

"It is our responsibility to win the war, to win it as quickly us possible, and to win it with the least possible sacrifice ot Amer ican lives," he declared. "To accomplisn this wc must have skilled, hardened soldiers who are belter prepared und more highly proficient in the science oi wanare than our en emies whose preparation for this conflict extends over a period of ten years and longer." Missed Point Concluding that Stimson has "missed the point of immediate seriousness" involved in the northwest 'harvest, Nye asked for a conference with the war secretary. Nye asserted that the recent deferment for 30 days of men re cently called for induction in the army was "only scratching the surface" of the need. ' "I am reaay to agree that our paramount concern at the moment is that of affording a military power, but afier ail, there is a tremendous heap of military power in the producing and saving of an adequate food supply," Nye said. Ambrose Urges Burning of . Dry Weeds (Continued from Page One) and California avenue to prevent any fires that sweep the hills frorn entering the city. In addi tion, Ambrose and men selected from crews on duty have been attending, to individual requests to have lots burned off in the order the requests are received. "we cant begin to keep up with the long waiting list ahead, he said, ' and I should like to urge persons to under take burning weeds on their own property or adjacent vacant lots. This can be done safely. If a few simple precautions are ob served." Here Is how it should be done. First obtain a permit from the fire department. Cut weeds back a few feet from fencesj trees or other Inflammable ob jects. Have a garden hose on hand long enough to reach around the area to be burned. Burn against the wind, prefer ably in the morning. Burning at night is prohibited by order of Lt..Gcn. DeWitt, commander of the western defense area. Don't leave the fire until the last spark 1.1 out. ' Ambrose cautioned people to haul away trash piles which have accumulated before at tempting to burn an area or re questing the fire department to do so. The fact that these smold. er for a long time creates an un necessary hazard and slows up the work of the firemen in burn ing off vacant lots.
