Returns to Find
Furnace Missinq

There was a chilly atmosphere
at the home of Mrs. George Eg-
CERT, Ills No. Proctor, Tuesday.
The furnace was missing. Mrs.
Eggert, not certain whether some
one had confused Halloween with
April FOOLS day. called police.
Some men, she said, arrived dur
ing her absence Monday and re-
moved the sawdust burner. They
explained to her 13-year-old daugh-
ter Joan that they were sent to
get it. When Mrs. Eggert got
home, Joan and two smaller chill
dren were cold.
The furnace later was located.
A heating equipment firm had
made a mistake.

CRITICIZEs ALLIES


Efforts of the British and the
French governments to justify
this new position of theirs on the
grounds Of their undertakings to
Poland are, of course, obviously
unsound. Everybody realizes there
can be no question Of restoring the
old Poland.
1T is, therefore, absurd to con-
tinue the present war under the
flag of restoration of the former
Polish state"
Molotov said Britain and France
are seeking new excuses for con-
tinuing the war with Germany.

CITES CHANGES

Z
There have been important
changes in the international situa-
ton during the past two months"
Molotov said. This applies above
all to Europe, but also to countries
far beyond the confines Of Europe"
He said that, of three important
circumstances, first mention should
be made of changes that have
taken place in relations between
Germany and the Soviet Union.
"Since the conclusion of the
Soviet German non aggression
pact on Aug. %, an end has been
put TO the abnormal relations
which have existed between the
Soviet Union and Germany for a
number of years" he said.
Instead of enmity. which was
fostered in every way by certain
European powers, we now have
impeachment and the establish
ment Of friendly relations between
the u. S. S. r. and Germany"
Also. important mention, Molo-
tov said, must be made OF the de-
feat OF Poland and the collapse Of
the Polish state.
"One swift blow to Poland. first
by the German army and then by
the red army, and nothing was left
of this ugly offspring of the Yer
saillcs treaty. which had existed by
expressing non-Polish minorities.
WAR BRINGS CHANGES
The traditional policy Of I'M
principled maneuvering between
Germany and the L. S. S. r. and
the playing off Of one against the
other has proved unsound and has
suffered complete bankruptcy"
Molotoy said the war in Europe
has caused radical changes in the
entire international situation.
we now know, neither British
nor French guarantees were Of
help to Poland" he said.

knows what these guarantees
were

THE ruling circles of Britain
and France have been lately at
tempting to depict themselves as
champions of the democratic rights
Of nations against Hitlerism. and
the British government has an
nounced that its aim In the war
with Germany is nothing more or
less than the destruction of Hit
lerism',' Molotoy said.
1T amounts to this-that the
British. and with them their
French supporters Of war, have
declared sopething in the nature
Of an theological war on Germany.
II is reminiscent of the religious
wars Of olden times.

Molotov said there Is ''abso-

present war.
He said the ideology Of Hit

force.
1T is. therefore. not only sense
less but criminal TO wage such a
war as a war for the destruction
OF Hitierism' eamouflaged as a
fight for democracy" Molotog
said.
he attacked the action Of the
French government in banning the
French Communist party.
