DIES WILL HOLD
 COURT IN TEXAS

Beaumont, Tex, July 23-(UP)- Rep. Martin Dies, chairman of the committee Investigating un-Ameri- can activities, said today that he in- tended to question the president of a Texas state teachers college about his possible connection with the Communist party.
 Dies refused to name the educator or to say when he would be sub- penaed, but said he would call him "and all others mentioned in the minutes of a meeting of Texas Com munist leaders held last May"
 Dies will transfer his hearings to Houston and resume investigation ot Bund activities there when his in- vestigators lay the groundwork for further inquiry. It was at Houston that the committee discovered the Kyffhauser Bund, composed of Ger man war veterans. had been organ ized.
 The publicity resulting from Dies study of the Kyffhauser Bund has brought about its dissolution in Houston.

 "You can't fight 8 tank with a rifle, especially if there are no bullets in the rifle" she said. When you hear of 1000 Frenchmen surrender ing you know there is dirty work somewhere. There is no question that France as a nation wouldn't crack unless she had been betrayed
 Miss Lloyd agreed that France had been betrayed and added that T want to warn you here in the United States about it now"
 The three women will work from a New York hotel. Miss Lloyd said 'There is going to be great famine in France"
 Tt is beginning now" she said. T hate to think of what is going to happen this winter. The Germans are taking for themselves what food there is, knowing that Uncle Sam will feed the French people. That's the racket the Germans are work ing"

TOBACCO CROP IS
 BADLY DAMAGED

Hartford, Conn, July 23.-(UP)- Shade-grown tobacco growers today reported more than $200,000 damage to their crops as result of a sharp electrical and hail storm which swept Hartford County last night. Most of the damage was at planta- tions at East Windsor Hill and South Windsor whre hail stones as large as quarters rifled holes in the to- bacco leaves and destroyed netting covering the plants. The hail was so severe that the area appeared to have been struck by a heavy snow- storm.
 Electrical flashes disrupted rail- road traffic signals at Windsor Locks and trains Jagged behind schedule until they were restored. Strong wind caused partial collapse of a large barn on the plantation og Benny Kondzior at Mapping and windows were broken at the home of a neighbor, Joseph Anderson.

ANNENBERC IS ON
 TRIP TO PRISON
Again States He Never
 Knowingly Tried to l Cheat Govt

Philadelphia, July g - (UP0 - M. L. Annenberg, en route to North eastern Federal Penitentiary at Lewisburg to begin serving three years for income tax evasion, de- nied today in a front page signed announcement in his Philadelphia Inquirer that he ever knowingly ''had the slightest intention of de- frauding the government"
 "That I pleaded guilty to one count of one indictment is a mat ter of record" he said. Tn so doing I invited the penalty which now confronts me, but have the satis- faction of knowing that thereby l saved others, including my only son, from a severe and unmerited ordeal.
 q repeat now that during my en- tire business career, covering more than 40 years, never before had to appear in court to answer crim- inal charge:
 That I never knowingly evaded any tax, nor had the slightest in- tention of defrauding the govern ment:
 That when informed by the gov- ernment of its claim I promptly called upon the attorney general of the United States then in office and offered to pay any amount that might be required, but my offer was refused.
 "The government would not even discuss settlement of the civil claim before a plea of guilty was agreed upon and entered. Then, and not until then, would the government agree to negotiate settlement, which resulted in its acceptance of a lump sum.
 ' now ask the readers of this newspaper, whose interests I have endeavored to serve faithfully and with all my energies, to withhold judgment, pending a time when my whole story can be told"

WAR MOVES ON
 TODAY'S BOARD

 ment. But it is always advisable to develop caution as ones succession of fortunate predictions lengthens. Hitler apparently is counting on a gigantic air attack against Britain as his first major move in his of- fensive. He may use some 5000 planes in succession of wave bomb- ings. This is probably his extreme limit, considering the large home and conquered areas that must be protested and the necessity for hold ing reserves. In the past month it has been estimated that an average of 100 German planes have been attacking Great Britain daily. That is total of 5000 planes, and less than 400 people have been killed.
 Military Secret
 The destruction of property Is a military secret, but there is no evil dence that it can have been in any way crippling when the num- Der of casualties is so small. Indeed, the British government recently countermanded previous orders that factory workers must seek air raid shelters at the first alarm. They now continue working until the final alarm because it has been demon- strated that most bombs land in fields or yards or other places where they do little harm.
 Nor is there any apparent indi- cation that German invading army is certain to land on British soil in sufficient strength to counquer the country. Even if Hitler has secret weapons and unknown ways of transport, the very fact that they have not been previously tried must show an element of uncertainty in them. It is impossible to have com plete confidence in their automatic successes such as Hitler seems to display.
 Starvation Plan
 The third means of subduing Great Britain is by starvation blockade if air attack and an invas- ion fail. German air and submarine operations have accounted for con- siderable destruction of British ship ping during the past 10 months, but not sufficiently to give an absolute guarantee of final success. The British government announced this week that for every ship sunk, near ly seven hundred safety reach Brit iSh ports.
 It would thus seem that evidence to date does not warrant such su- preme certitude as Chancellor Hit Ter shows that the British have no chance to survive, once he gives the word for his offensive to start. If 1t fails, as it well may do, involving heavy German defeat, Hitler will have difficulty justifying himself not only before his own people but also before the Italians and before the grim and Sardonic Stalin, awaiting his chance to drive ahead in the Near East.

 Gen. Shunroku Hata, retiring war minister, was made member of the supreme war council.
 It was asserted today that the cabinet had decided to abolish the "secretive" policies of the last gov ernment land inform the people of true existing conditions at home and abroad in an effort to win their con- fidence." It was said also that the cabinet would seek to make good its promises where the retiring govern ment merely made declarations. 1000 Casualties
 Chungking, China, July 23.-(UP) Air defense officials said today that Japanese planes yesterday killed or wounded 1000 civilians in air raids on Hochwan end Kikiang, 30 miles north and 50 miles south, respec- lively, of Chungking.
 It was claimed that the Japanese raided Hochwan and Kikiang after their planes had been driven from Chungking with loss of two Japa- nese scout craft.
