In a statement Mr.. Farley said
he would take at least a month s
vacation before assuming his new
duties.
The statement said:
For a long time I have indicated
my desire to retire to private life
for reasons that I have frequently
given. consider myself extremely
fortunate, therefore, to be associated
with the Coca Cola Co., which is
one of the outstanding business
concerns in the world.
My duties will be in connection

I am going to be very happy in
my new work. I have had no vaca.

The appointment will bring Mr.
Farley, 52year-old former building
supplies salesman, to a company
with business interests in 76 for
eign countries.
There is no precise breakdown
between domestic and foreign sales,
a spokesman said, but sales of the
soft drink abroad have been averag-
ing about 8 to 10 per cent of the
total business.
In the 10 years 928-1938, accord

this official termed reliable, foreign
sales of Coca-Cola increased about
10 per cent.

Italians Press Advance
Into British SomoIiIond

ROME, Aug. 10 R.-Italian troops
have passed Adueins in their drive

Dutch West Indies
Officials Cold TO-
Act Of Havana
Prefer Protectorute
By British if Any
At All Is Necessary
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Aug. 10.-Netherlands
officials in the West Indies view
with "cold suspicion" the United
States-sponsored Act of Havana
providing for an American trustee
ship over any European possession
in the Western Hemisphere which
might be threatened with changes of
ownership or loss of autonomy be-
cause of the war.
The West Indian officials, still
loyal to Queen Wilhelmina and the
Dutch government now exiled in
England, are officially silent, but un-
questionably good sources here said
yesterday that while protectorate
by the United States alone might be
acceptable in case of actual military
aggression, the same would not be
true of general Latin American
trusteeship, and a British protecto-
rate would be preferable to either.
West Indian officials, army men
and leading newspapers were repre-
sented as feeling the Act of Havana
might result in control of the islands
by Colombia or Venezuela, which
would never be acceptable, espe-
clally in view of the conflict between
oil interests of Venezuela and
Aruba.
43 NatiOnalities in Aruba.
In Aruba, one of the principal
islands, there are 43 nationalities,
living amicably under the Neither
lands government with the excep-
ton of some dissension on the part
of some white Arubans, actually a
very small group, who are descend
ants of the original Dutch colonists
The Associated Press informant
said that even the management OF
the Lago Oil & Transport Co.,
great Standard Oil refinery at
Aruba, prefer the present govern
ment to any other, attributing the
absence of labor trouble and crime
to the Dutch administration.
On the other hand, the United
States citizen employees of this COM
pany, it was said, do not greatly
care what happens outside the oil
company concessions, but would
prefer a United States protectorate
to escape strict Dutch laws, so strict
that even too many traffic violations
may result in banishment from the
islands.
British Oppose Trusteeship.
The British were represented as
being unalterably opposed to the
"trusteeship" plan, considering it es-
sential that. If anything should hap
pen to the Dutch administration, the
islands should become British, as
they were years ago, or at least a
British protectorate.
There has been no formal COM
ment from officials of British and
French possessions in the Western
Hemisphere on the Act of Havana.
the British expressing informal con-
fidence that the war result would
make such plans unnecessary and
the French at Martinique maintain
ing silence.

Stander Film Actor,
Called in Red Probe
Faces Suspension
Enlists Screen Guild
To Fight Removal
From Important Role
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
HOLLYWOOD, Aug. 1o.-Lionel
Stander enlisted aid of the Screen
Actors Guild today to prevent his
suspension from a new picture be-
cause he has been called into a
grand jury probe of Communist
party activities.
The gravel-voiced character actor
was removed from an important role
in Republic Studios "Hit Parade of
1941" yesterday with the explana-
tion that "he might be subpoenaed
in the middle Of production"
To which Stander retorted:
Republics action is both stupid
and absurd. I have been assured
by the district attorney. that I am
loyal American and a decent cit
izen and am so regarded by the au-
thorities. 1t should be regarded by
Republic as a privilege to have such
a person in its picture.
Il am going to fight the matter
to the end. If the studios action is
allowed to stand, the wrong infer
ence will be drawn from it and my
career will be blasted.
"A man who is innocent of any
wrongdoing cannot afford to stand
by and allow the reputation he has
built up and protected for 13 years
to be besmirched."
The guild, he said. had promised
him full support.
Stander appeared twice this week
at the grand jury chambers offering
to testify, but was told to return
next Wednesday. He said he was
informed that appearance "is the
only one expected of me, and that
certainly won't interfere with pro-
duction."

brown hand on her arm.

thing" His gray eyes smiled at her.
Her first impulse, remembering
what she had heard him say the day
before, was to walk Indignantly
away. For some reason that she
didn't even try to understand, she
changed her mind. Tom did seem
like a rock to cling to among all
these strangers. She looked up at
his tanned face and felt wave OF
homesickness for the past. Somehow
she managed a smile.
That's the girl. Now listen, kid"
He spoke in a low tone. Il know
Hugo's given you some work to do"
She glanced up at him quickly.
why not? Isn't it all right?"
"Of course it is. Don't look so
startled. He'll probably give you
more. What I want is for you to
do anything Hugo tells you, with
out question:. See?"
Her head was fairly whirling. II
don't see, Tom, why YOU"
"You don't need to see. You'll un-
derstand it in time. Just do as I
say. And another thing. Don't
brethe word of it around the
Office Whatever you do for him
keep it a dead secret!"
He gave her arm a friendly pat,
and was gone.

Scores of Jews Arrested.
Police arrested scores of persons
yesterday on charges of spreading
false news and hustled them off to
concentration camps. All the pris-

democratic factions, and most of
them were Jews.
Since the new anti-Jewish laws
cut off most of Rumania's 755,000
Jews from pubic ONCE, many pro-
fesSions and other fields, their jobs
will be available to non-Jews, the
newspapers pointed out.
The press also stressed the fact
there will be many business oppor-
tunities for Gentiles, since Jews are
barred from engaging in many busi-
nesSes, and the ban on Jewish
ownership of land will make farms
available.
In prohibiting Jewish participa-
ton in publishing of newspapers
and other periodicals, the law is so
far-reaching as to prevent Jews
from selling papers in the streets.
The laws forbid intermarriage of
Jews and Christians, and permit
annulment of existing jewish
Christian marriages upon formal ap-

Any attempt to maintain contact
with supply bases to the rear would
be doomed to failure by British
bombing attacks. they said, and long
supply lines simply would increase
the targets open to the Royal Air
Force.
Nazi Force Believed Small.
Since any attempted drive along
the Mediterranean coast would ex-
pose the Italians to the further
hazard of British naval lombard
ment, Graziani's legions are ex-
pected to- launch their drive across
the desert. This brought warnings
from the Egyptian press that the
desert wastes would be as redoutable
an obstacle as the British.
"The desert Is terrible enemy.
1t is the tomb of those who traverse
it, the newspapers chorused, while
Abdel Rahman Azzam Bey, COM
mander of Egypts territorial army,
warned:
ANY aggressive action against
Egypt will cost the invader very
dearly"
There were rumors of 10000 Ger
man troops in Libya, but reliable
sources said the Nazi force amounted
to no more than few thousand as
signed to help Graziani with tech
nical aspects of his drive.
Meanwhile, the newspaper
warned the people of nerve" war

and false r,lmors," saying the Italian
offensive at present was confined to
attempts to break public morale as
a prelude to attack.

concentrations along the French
Indo-China border.
At Chungking, the Central Daily
News, official organ of the Chinese
government, warned that China
would take adequate steps to back
French Indo-China with force" if
that colony's territorial or political
integrity should be menaced.
Unofficial sources said that Chi
mas Generalissimo Chang Kai-shek
already had moved some of his best
divisions toward the Indo- China
border.
Reports from Hong Kong said
japanese warships and transports
we're arriving daily at Waichow,
Hainan and other bases near Indo-

Immediate Attack Unlikely.
Despite these threatening indica-
tions, foreign military circles ac-
quainted with climatic conditions
said it was unlikely Japan would
make any serious move in the direc-
tlon OF Indo-Chlna before late Sep
tember.
Seasonal rains, intense heat and
the danger of malaria would seri-
ously impede any widescale opera
tions before then, they said.
Although the withdrawal of Brit
ish troops was not entirely unex-
pected, the move stirred specula-
ton as to the fate of huge British
investments in Shanghai.
In reaction to the withdrawal, re-
garded by financial circles as in
escapably weakening China's posi-
