has published three books. He is &C., quainted with all phases of modern church life through actual experi- ence.
 Dr. Trexler's ecclesiastical career really began as a small boy when he accompanied his father, a pastor who ministered to four scattered churches in Berks county, Pennsyl- vania, on visits to rural parish toners. It was not surprising that after graduation at Muhlenberg College, Allentown, Pa., he went on to the Lutheran Theologacl Seminary in Philadelphia and en- tered the ministry in 1899.
 Then began the first of series oi pioneering enterprises in minis. try noted for its pioneering work Called to the Greenpoint section of Brooklyn he built up congre- gation of 600 from the original five; who met in a disuesd store, anc founded the Church of the Messiah overlooking Winthrop Park.

.4S5 NEW VOTERS
 MADE YESTERDAY
Only lO6 Register Prefer enCe for Either Majority
 Party

A record for the number of new voters made" oh any single day since the adoption of new regula- tionS for admission of electors was set at the city hall yesterday as 436 men mad women were sworn in. It was the last opportunity for reg iStration by those wishing to take part in Democratic primraies the 18th.
 The next sessions for the making of voters will be held the week of Oct. 8-15, and will afford the last chance for registration by eligible new voters who wish to take part in the fall election.
 Most of new voters admitted yes- terday declined ot register any par ty preference, only 160 signing primary lists. Sixty-five registered as Democrats, and 41 as Republi- cans.
 Under the new rurles for admis- sion of voters the town clerk and selectmen meet once month to admit new voters, with the excep- ton of October when sessions fro admission are held for a full week.
 The city's voting list last year comprised 44,897. Despite reductions caused by death and removal, the voting total will no doubt be large ly swelled, due to the large number of new voters being admitted.

Nazis Seem All Set Until Spring, Except for One Vital Material High-Test Gas for Their Bombers

John Maloney, American Red Cross representative in eastern Europe, says 35,0O0,000 must go on near-starvation ration this winter.
 Britain will not permit food to be sent to these peoples. Germany disclaims all responsibility to feed them.
 What will be the effect upon Ger many's morale of these great masses grappling under her care with star vation and disease?
 Germany herself, according to the British Agricultural Commission has food enough-reserveS and cur- rent crops-to last until the fall of 1941.
 This, however, is predicated upon good crops this year.
 And the crops are not good. All Europe will have 8 1,360,000, ,000- bushel wheat crop compared with 1,700,000,000 last year.
 We have no figures available on the other agricultural crops. All im- portant economic data in Germany and Italy ceased to appear after August, 1899.
 But reports Altering out of Ger many are that lack of manpower has resulted in heavy reductions in the crops as whole. There is no critical shortage of meat and only moderate shortage of sugar.
 Germany-save for one thing - seems to have enough to be able to pull through into the spring. ENGLAND STILL HOLDS ECONOMIC EDGE
 The big question mark on the economic front is gasoline.

UNITED STATES
 MAKES TREATIES
Facts With Great Britain, Canada, Australia Will Be Signed Friday
BY THOMAS A. DOZIER United Press Staff Correspondent

Washington, Sept. 5 - (UP) -I The United States signs with Great Britain, Canada and Australia to- morrow separate treaties providing for peaceful settlement of disputes, reliable diplomatic sources said to- day.
 The British Ambassador, Lord Lo- thian, Canadian Minister Loring Christie, and Australian Minister Richard G. Casey. will go together to the state department at noonl Friday to sign the agreements with Secretary of State Cordell Hull, these sources said.
 The new treaties will replace al similar agreement in effect between| the United States and the British Empire since 1914, known as thel treaty for the advancement of peace.
 State Department officials saidI that negotiation of the treaties withI Canada and Australia is intended as| a goodwill gesture and further| recognition of their independent| status. The signing with Great Bri-| O14AA WA4A bC O 4CAlNWdl VI t4AC Ch4oJ- ing agreement.
 The treaties, which have been inI negotiation for several months, pro- vide for settlement of disputes be- tween this country and the otherl signatories by conciliation com mission, without resort to war.
 Under the agreements, any dls-| pute which cannot be settled by ar-| bitration will be referred to a five-I man commission, of which each sig natory nation will select two mem bers. The fifth member will be chosen by the four.
 Informed observers believed that the agreements, which will be signed| at time when the British Empire is engaged in a life-and -deaGhI struggle, constitute further evidence| of American friendship for Britain
 They saw in the treaties a desire on the part of the United States to| demonstrate that disputes among| Democracies may be settled by con- ciliation without resorting to war.

SECRETARY HULL
 WARNS JAPANESE
Alleged Plans of Japan to Enter French IndO=China
 Must Stop
BY HOBART c. MONTEE United Press Staff Correspondent

1ICSS 0bdh
 Washington, September 5-(UP) administration sources interpreted Secretary of State Cordell Hull's new warning to Japan today as an indication that the United States felt that its destroyers-for-bas trade with Britain permitted it to play bolder hand in the Far East.
 They predicted that the American attitude toward Japan would grow sharper in proportion to the strengthening of Atlantic defenseS.
 Hull made two statements con- corning Japan.
 The first dealt with French Indo- China. Japan is reported to have delivered an ultimatum demanding the right to transport Japanese troops through Indo-China and to use Indo-China ports as bases to further her war on China. Hull broke a standing rule of not making formal, official comment on the basis of press reports, particu- larly when the United States rela- tions with foreign government are involved.
 Reluctant To Believe
 Hull said: Tn the absence of of- ficial confirmation of the reports of a Japanese ultimatum to the au- thorities of French Indo-China, this government is reluctant to give credence to the reports now under reference. The situation and the subject to which these reports re- late, however, is matter to which this government attaches import ance, and it stands to reason that, should events prove these reports have been well-founded, the effect upon public opinion in the United States would be unfortunate"
 The other statement referred to developments at the Shanghai In ternational Settlement where Japa- nese military authorities for weeks have insisted on their right to pa- trol the sectors from which British troops were withdrawn recently. It indicated the United States had no intention of weakening its demands that its marines guard that part of the sector immediately joining the famous Shanghai Bund (water- front) where the most important American interests and the Ameri- can consulate general are located.

The Waterbury Democrat., 1940-09-05
BY JOHN T. FLYNN NEA Service Financial Writer


 At the end of year of war, Ger many's economic resources, despite many favorable factors and her great victories, remain inadequate for carrying on a war as long as England can endure.
 On the very evening of the war she enormously mitigated the se- rious nature of her economic con- dition by her pact with Russia.
 That, she said, broke the British blockade.
 How much it brought to her in supplies is still unknown. She did get some ore, grain and oil - all badly needed.
 And the pact did completely al- ter the whole situation in the Bal kans in favor of Germany.
 But it is quite possible that the amount of supplies going from Russia to Germany has not been decisive.
 There is friction now because of Germany's inability to deliver up to schedule to Russia the machin- cry with which the Nazis were to pay for RusSia's ore and oil and grain.
 PROCESSORS-
 NOT PRODUCERS
 The conquest of Belgium, Den mark, Norway and northern France has certainly brought Germany large new iron supplies.
 But it has not augmented her food supplies in any important way.
 These countries were great food stations for Europe-chief1y Eng land. But they were processors rather than producers.
 Holland, for instance, produced butter and cheese.
 But she had to get the feed for her cattle from without. And Ger many can no more get grain for Hollands COWS than for her own people.
 Norway imported about 60 per cent of her food. The rest was mainly fish.
 Now even fish are scarce because of the lack of gasoline for Norway's fishing boats.
 In Denmark there has been an immense slaughter of cattle and chickens because they compete with human beings for food.
 What Germany got in these coun- tries and in Poland is vast popu- lation which cannot feed itself and which faces starvation.
