Charging Hitler with commit ting terrible atrocities against the peoples of conquered Europe, Churchill declared that "in the first day he entered Kiev he shot 84,000 persons. "To show weakness of any kind to such a man," the prime minister added, "is only to en courage further atrocities and you may be, assured no weak ness will be shown." The" prime minister disclosed that he came to Edinburgh from a visit to the home fleet. Speak ing in the great Usher hall which was packed for the occasion, he lauded Scotland as an "example of national unity." Winant in a brief speech made a remark which some interpreted as advice to leave the question of a second front and other de cisions to the armed forces. "We ask what kind of road lies ahead," the ambassador said. "We must await the soldiers' answer because our faith and our future rest with the soldiers of democracy." PUZZLES SEATTLE : (Continued From Page One) hall waitress Saturday night She had been employed at a Seattle - T a c o m a Shipbuilding Corp., here. The officers were puzzled that the four fingernails of her left hand were unpolished, indicat ing to them that some force had caused her to depart without waiting to finish caring for her nails and in some manner forced to accompany her assailant. He said it would have to have been some impelling reason to cause a woman to leave her nails in ' such condition. "If an expected escort had ar rived before she was quite through with them she would have bad him wait a few min utes," an officer said. The body was found by Mr. and Mrs. H. H.

"Sensible" Masculine Garb By EARL WHITLOCK Men have always had a good deal of fun ridiculing the vag aries of women's clothes. Not : that the ladles care. They go right on buying silly, sassy,' lit tle hats and bi- "1 zarre frocks, go right on cutting the heels and toes off their shoes, regardless of mas cullne opinion. They don't buy cioines to make sense, anyway. xney Buy them because they like tnem and that's that! But do men always dress so very sensmiyr iiere might be some ammunition for wives to fling back at superior males. Is it so outstandingly sensible, for example, to wear a necktie in order to cover up the joint be tween shirt and collar and then to add another layer of collar to cover up the necktie? That's six layers of closely-woven doth a man wraps about his tonsils and then wonders why he .catches cold easily. , Or a lapel Where's the sense in that? Or turned-up trousers? Those were so silly even the govern ment shut down on them. Does a man really need his customary quota of 16 pockets. He uses about four, the others are to mis lay important papers in. . We all know that women's . clothes are not rational just . attractive. But can men claim , super-intelligence for their own itylings?

AS DEFENSE (Continued From Page One) 1942 seems to have been beau tifully scrambled. For the third day the Ger mans and their, puppets were largely confined to artillery and air assaults on Stalingrad. The Russian communiques said that artillery and mortar duelling continued in the immediate Stal ingrad area. The Germans ac tually had won positions Inside the Volga city but . failed to reach the river. The reiterative thump of the German minenwerfer and the grumble 'of siege cannon while axis troops dug in to hold their Stalingrad wedges were nothing like the fuehrer intended when on September 30 he declared) "We shall take Stalingrad, you may depend on that." Even then IS days had passed since the Germans announced that the battle of Stalingrad had entered its "final phase." Typical of the price levied by the Russians on the Germans' mad effort to save the fuehrer's face at Stalingrad was today's communique report that two companies of German troops were wiped out when the Ger mans attacked the outskirts of a Stalingrad workers' settle ment. . . , This German action nowise ranked with the strength of pre vious mass assaults.

AUSSIE KILLED 'S BRISBANE, Australia, Oct. 12 (IP) An Australian enlisted man was stabbed to death and another was wounded Friday night in a brawl with American soldiers which had Its origin in the non regulation manner in which one of the Americans wore his neck tie.

U. S. employment service of ficials said that the help of the townspeople has already done much to insuro harvest . of the big 1942 crop and a continuance of this effort should put the harvest over the top. Because of weather condi tions, harvest operations were suspended in some fields Sun day but were resumed Monday morning. Millworkcrs, in particular, are contributing to the harvest effort and at the same time are making tidy sums for themselves, It was learned.
