EUROPE A PRISON CAMP

There is. judging from the temper
and direction of Hitler's past per-
formance, little or no basis for be-
lieving anything other than that
Europe under Hitler would be one
tremendous prison camp.
And even if one is disposed to
view much of Hitler performance a
as a realistically effective conquest
of power rather than as working
example of long-range social
philosophy. which even after The
conquest of power would continue
to use the same hysterical, brutally
inhuman methods employed in the
winning of this power. one would
be giving Hitler the benefit Of a
doubt which seems nowhere reason
ably to exist.
That is to say, one allows his
hopes to make him dupe if h
expects a Softening OF the essential
brutality of Hitlerism once Hitler
brought Europe to its knees; for
since Hitleriam wins power through
naked force it could hold this only
through the same.

To Supremacy on Sea
New $3,sel .000, 900 orde1
Will Give America the
Biggest Fleet AfIoot
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press
The Navy reaffirmed It's faith In
the battleship as the backbone Of
sea power today by stalking $700, ,000,- :
600 Of its present and prospective
building money on seven of the
floating fortresses.
Despite contentious of some avia-
ton enthusiasts that air power has
made the dreadnaught obsolete,
Navy officials set aside this big sum
for capital ships in a history-making
So 1851 ,o53, ,312 contract-letting yester-
day.
A Navy statement said this pro-
gram would give the Nation a fleet
of 688 combatant ships, the largest
elements of which would be COM
pleted in four or five years. This
would be greater than any navy now
afloat and, officials said, larger than
any other power is known to be
building.
The seven battleships will be
heavily armored, long-range vessels
Of $4,000 tons or more, larger Than
any warships now afioat and the
equal of those said to be under con-
struction In other nations.
3 May Be $1,000 Tons.
Reports circulated in the~ ~Capital,
moreover, that three of them would
be of $4,000 tons, larger than any
other power is known to be building,
but this could not be confirmed
Chairman VinSon OF the House
Naval Committee told his colleagues
that all seven would be IS ,000- ton
nerS.
The Navy previously had ordered
four such superships and officials
sad that two of these already were
unuer construction. A number of
IS 5,000-tonners are much farther
along toward completion. BY the
time the latest batch of seven giants
is completed four or five years
hence, officials said, the Navy's bat
tie line will boast of 80 dread
naughts. in contrast with the Is now
in actual service.
What the armament of the newly
ordered battleships will be has not
been disclosed. American battle
ships of late design generally mount
l6-inch guns.
Both Britain and Japan are be-
lieved TO be building battleships of
around $4,000 tons.
2,400 Planes Ordered.
In banking about S70O, 900 900 on
additional battleships for the United
States the Navy, however, did not
stake its all on capital ships
The current contract letting pro-
Vided for eight aircraft carriers TO
cost around s47,0OOOOO each, and
officials announced that negotiations
were in the final stage for con-
tracts covering 2,400 airplanes TO
cost about S108 100000
In addition, the orders placed for
ships included 81 cruisers costing
around s30,000,0 900 apiece, lis de-
stroyers to cost about So. loo, 900 each,
43 submarines costing about $4,000. =

by the Associated Press
- LONDON, Sept. 10.-The Ger
mans and Italians destroyed 64,57s
tons Of British and neutral mer-
chant shipping in the week ending
September l, the British Admiralty
reported today, bringing the total
for the first year of the war to
s,T71 1888 tons.
The years losses were listed as:
British, 1883, 1876 tons; Allies, 462 ,924
tons, and neutrals, 1928 tons.
The Admiralty said German and
italian shipping losses from the
start of the war to September 8
totaled 1,236,o0 tons.
The losses for the last week re-
ported-l1 British, Allied and 4
neutral ships-were said to be in
excess of the average weekly loss
since the war began, but below the
average weekly loss since May 27,
when fighting was intensified.
The high tonnage of losses for
the week was attributed by the Ad-
n1iralty to ideal weather for SUBJ
marine attack"
Despite the losses, the Admiralty
declared, the British merchant fleet
now in commission is greater than
at the outset of the war.
The report added that, in addi-
tion to German and Italian losses
listed, the Allies, during the year,
sank $4,000 tons of shipping which
had been neutral. but was seized or
brought under control of Italy or
Germany.

Dick Chapman of the host club to-
day shot a $3.50 to take the
lead in the second days qualifying
round of the National Golf Cham
pionship at Winged Foot Country
Club.
Chapmans round gave him a &c.
hole total of 14o and a six-stroke
lead over Maurice Mccarthy, former
Georgetown University intercollegi-
ate champion. who added rs this
morning to his pace-setting 70 of
Yesterday. Mccarthy had 37-39
today.
Tied with Mccarthy in second
place were George Dawson. Chicago
veteran, who added IA to his open
ing day round of y, and Tom
Whiteway, who had 7l-75-146
Frank Strafaci, Brooklyn, i'm
proved his first-round rs with a
sub-par II, giving him two-day
total of l47 Fred Haas. jr.. of New
Orleans. Joined Strafaci at that
figure.
First of the eight former winners
to be shunted almost certainly to
the sidelines was Johnny Good
man, 1887 champion from Omaha.
Johnny, who played well in prac-
tice, could do no better than 80
after his first-round 78 and his 158
appeared to be at least two strokes
too much.
Most of the lads were having
trouble, though Chapman got away
to a 3-under-par start on the first
five holes.
CHAPMAN held on to two holes of
that margin in hitting the turn in
"a. He birdied the first and sec
ond holes on IL and foot puts,
got another birdie by chipping dead
on the long fifth for a 4, but hooked
his tee shot at the one-shot No. 7
for a bogey 4.
Sinks 35-Foot Putt.
Chapman hit the cup with his
birdie bid on the short 10th, then
banged one IN from IS feet away
on the 18th for 3. He missed a
12-footer on No. II and a 20-footer
on No. Is in bold bids for brides,
but had to scramble for his pars on
the next four holes. Dick had to
chip from the fringe and sink a
6-footer for his 4 on the 14th: came
out of rough and then out of
trap for another on No. Is, and on
No. Is despite an approach that
went into a trap, barely missed
6-footer for a birdie 4.
Trapped again on his second shot
at the 18th, he came out Is feet
over the pin, but sank the putt.
Two puts from so feet gave him his
par on the 18th for a SO, three under
par. and 140.
Mccarthy got in trouble on the
eighth. He sliced his tee shot and
had to play a low iron through the
trees. The ball caught q trap, and
his first shot failed to get out of the
sand. That cost him S.
Mccarthy three -putted the 10th
from IS feet and the 18th from 80
feet. He managed to get pars on
the next fve holes, but finished
OF with another bogey for 76 and
LAG.
Whiteway. who had . II yester-
day. lost one stroke to par on the
front nine with a 81, and
thus lost three shots to Chapman.
The 26-year-old Clevelander bogeyed
the short third and had pars on
all the rest.
Benjamin E. Skinker. jr., Of Chevy
Chase. Md, finished with a Isl to-
tai, firing q IS round this morning,
one stroke better than his opening
performance.
