 Result is that military experts believe the Dutch could hold out against Japanese naval invaders for about four months And during this time, Japan's oil supply, if embargoed by the United States, might become exhausted.
 This may be one reason why the Japanese have made haste slowly ill their contemplated plans for ill- vasion of the Dutch East Indies They did not want to move until they were sure first that Britain was in desperate position in its fight with Hitler; and second, that the United States was worried about Europe and did not want to get it's fleet preoccupied in the Pacific.

the British to carry the war into the camp of the enemy as never before. U. s. military strategists figure that England's slow prepar- edness start never can catch up with the NaziS; therefore best Brit ish strategy is to continue to rain bombs over Hamburg and Berlin.
 To this end they would also like to get the famous bombsight which the Army and Navy have perfected and which is supposed to be the most accurate in tht world. f
 Whether they will get flying fortresses and the bombsight, how. ever, is doubtful. Agreement b, both Roosevelt and Willkie prob ably would be necessary, plus tn consent of U. S. Army and Nav, leaders, who guard their secret jeaulously.

IF BRITAIN FAILS

Meanwhile, and of necessity, confidential discussions of what the United States will do if Britain falls have intensified. They hinge around the hope that most of the British fleet can cooperate with the United States in defending the Western Hemisphere.
 Also they hinge around fthe strategy of continued blockade of Europe. After all, Hitler must feed Europe after he gets it. also GeE~ many must have certain strategic materials such as tin and rubber. The British fleet, still in control of the Indian Ocean, together with the U S. fleet in the Western Hemisphere can enforce an .effec- tive blockade
 NOTE Those who have talked with President Roosevelt in the last few days find him completely ab- sorbed with Britain'sa desperate predicament.

U. s. AID?

In view of these developments, two important questions are under discussion in Washington today.
 ONE is what further help the United States can give Britain to keep her fighting.
 TWO is joint Anglo-American defense plans in case England falls.
 Regarding the first, the British already have made it clear that what would help their cause tre- mendously would be the purchase of U. s. Army flying fortresses, and the loan of the famous U. s. bombsight. z

Keluinator Has Moist Master
System On This Years Model

Presenting the new Moist Master
humidity system as an outstanding
new feature, Kelvinator introduces
it's new 1910 line of refrigerators as
"the finest products ever produced
under that name at the lowest
prices in Kelvinator history"
The Moist Master, standard equip
ment on three of the new 1910
models of six and eight cubic feet
capacity models that are looked
upon as especially interesting to
those who plan to replace an old re-
f~rigerator o in the home with a
new one - is said by Kelvinator en-
gineers to greatly lengthen the
period of time which foods can be
kept in uncovered dishes.
Humidity in t h e Moist Master
food compartment closely approx
mates springtime conditions which
are considered ideal for perfect
food preservation, say the engineers,
and temperature is at about As de-
grees.
The new 1910 Kelvinator line
starts with a new low priced model
six which like all Kelvinators is
powered by the sealed Polarsphere
unit, and which has a cabinet of
welded steel and Permalux finish,
Finger Tip Kelvin Control, extra
fast freezing shelves and four fast
freezing trays.
Moist Master models have a built
in meat compartment behind the
freezer door that is properly pro.
tected from the actual freezing COM
partment by an insulator plate that
slides out permitting the compart.
ment to be used also f o r below
freezing storage of meat, poultry
and ice cubes. Moist Master models
also have a newly developed hori.
3ontsl rotating, wheel type cold
control.
A deluxe model Of slightly higher
price includes glass topped vege-
table crispers, sliding and adjust
able shelves, twin dome lights and
spacious sliding porcelain Cold
chest among many other features,
Top members of the new line are
described as full feature models in
Guiding the Moist Master system.
Special feature are twin sliding
crispers, vegetable bin for unrefrig-
Grated storage, built in ice tray lift
ers, advanced Kelvin control with
automatic return from defrosting.
Special care has been taken, KEEL
%vinator announces, to provide eight
cubic foot models for large families
Of modes. neal with a variety of
the most advanced features, making
for easy selection of a model in &C
cordance with the family budget.
Design of the new kelvinator for
1910 has been refined with the idea
of bringing out the graceful smooth
ness of the exterior, and with the
idea of improving the functional
aspects of the interior.
kelvinator engineers say the new
1910 models have been improved in
economy of operation, electric cur
rent being used 20 per cent less of
the time than usual under normal
conditions.

models ever produced by kelyinatOr.
They are built OF the highest quality
materials with refinements and i'm
provements that mean long life and
completely satisfactory service to
users. Yet prices have been reduced
from $50 to $50.
This big reduction has been ac-
complished, not by cutting quality,
but by savings made possible by
concentrating SO per CEN of pro-
duction on 6 cubic foot and larger
models by anticipating ~increas-
Ell volume, and by lower distribute
ing costs. The savings made possible
are passed on to YOU in the form of
improved quality and lower prices.
You owc it to yourself, before
you invest in any refrigerator, to
see these new 1910 Iow-priced KEEL
vinators," Mr.. SCHWARTZ continued.
The big new 6 Ia cubic foot
large family size this year sells for
only Sl14.7J.
Look at the size here is a
big, family-size 6 Ia cubic foot refri-
geratOr, the size most people need.
Look at the modern styling, the
extra large amount of disable food
storage space, the big high speed
freezer. It's easily the finest low
priced refrigerator Kelvinator has
ever built, Yet the price is the low
est in kelVinatOr history.
Look at the name this refri-
gerator is backed by the name of
the oldest manufacturer of electric
re~frigerators. This name is your
guarantee Of absolute dependability,
quality construction, mechanical eff
~ficiency, and years of satisfactory
service
Look at the price at this
price for a big SIX, no family need
feel obliged to purchase a refriee-
rator which is too small for its
needs. This amazing price for a big,
six cubic foot, 1910 Kelvinator re-
presents what We believe to be an
unequalIed value.
Here are but a few Of the 6 IA
