WAR INTERPRETIVE
CONTINUED from Page One)

yond anything yet limited at, it is
a mere sideshow in the war.
What does matter for Hitler Is
that II Duce is taking a beating
at the hands Of the Greeks and
British sea and air power. In the
judgment Of neutral observers very
recently l italy it would take little
in the way of defeats to cause a
serious break in Italian public mo-
rale.
Reverses Too Big
So such deal as the granting to
Moscow of a special sphere of in
fluence in the proposed new world
order" can offset Italian military
reverses. Such an agreement would
leave Russia to collect her spoils
from the British Empire. II Molo-
toh tentatively accepted any such
arrangement, it must have been
with his tongue in his cheek. What
was happening to the Italians at
the hands of the Greeks and British
could not have been unknown to
him. They did not indicate that
the British Empire had yet begun
to crack up.
On the contrary, British prestige
and morale is unquestionably high
er today than it has been at any
time since the Battle Of Britain
began last June. There are grow
ing symptoms that German in
trigue with the Vicby government
In conquered France has encoun-
tered a serious stumbling block.
The Petain regimes protest
against deportation of French ma
tionals from Lorraine supports that
view.
The major factors tending to
overshadow the Russo-German
conversations, however, are t e
Greek stand against Italian aggres-
sion, and the British air attack
on Italy's fleet. Rome's reply to
the British claims sounds m o
like a tacit admission than a re-
futation.
An Associated Press observer on
a British battleship tells how
British navy planes, returning
from the attack on laramie, re
ported that they had left one Ital-
ian battleship aflame and two
others beached or half submerged.
The reporters account was radioed
from a point "off laramie"
Important Item
That is an important item. It
means that British capital ships
as well as submarines and aircraft
are operating virtually in Italian
home waters. It tends to back up
also London reports of a British
naval attack on Italian supply con.
voys in the Straits of Otranto.
An Athens report tells Of with
drawal Of Italian troops from the
Yugoslavian border to
back up the faltering Fascist
armies confronting Greece. The
implication is that the Italian high
command was desperately trying
to prevent a complete breakdown
against increasing difficulties in
transporting forces direct from
Italy to the Greek front.
Against that background of war
developments, the vague generali-
ties in which Berlin describes the
Hitler-Molotoff negotiations appear
significant. Had there been any,
thing committing Russia to direct
or indirect military action to aid
the AXIS it would have been shout
ed from the house tops. 4

 And so Thanksgiving is over-but starting next Saturday, loyal Salva- tionistS once more will rally forth to brave the cold, the. snow; again their little bells will blend their merry tinkle with the hubbub of downtown traffic as they remind you that Christmas is just around the corner. I know that you will support the Christmas effort just as Loyalty as you have always done - and because of your continued loyal support, the Waterbury Corps of the Salvation Army once more will be able to bring the sacrificing spirit of Christmas just bit closer, just a bit nearer to those among us, who so often, are forgotten in the rush and excitement of present day living.
 Have you ever enjoyed the thrill of bringing an overflowing Christ mas basket to a needy family? It is an experience you're not likely to forget in a hurry! Would you like such an experience? If you would, I'd like to have you write me and tell me why - and perhaps it may be arranged. Perhaps God wishes you to do just bit more than just drop a bill in the Army Kettle or send check to the Army Citadel.

 For evening wear she'll like the shoes, belt and bracelet to match, woven and crocheted of cotacord, the new plastic. Intricate designs give the effect of scintillating jew els. The material is tougn, water resistant and is easily cleaned with a damp rag.
 Does she travel frequently? Give a thought to the new Fly-Away bag. It has ample room for nightie, slippers, dressing gown, and is completely fitted with a varied as- sortment of very fancy toilet ac- cessories.
 There's a dainty boudoir lamp that any sister will have about. Only 16 inches over all, it has 8 ruffled celanese shade above pas- tel milk glass type base.
 On rainy nights she will appre- ciate having a flasnnghted um- brella. The battery is in the straight part of tns removable handle of Lucite, the new plastic that conducts light around curves. It eliminates fumbling for key

 This year, more so than other years, help came from many and unexpected quarters. A youngster, who had forgotten his school dona- ton, trudged down town with peck of potatoes and very proudly turned this package over to one of the laSsieS at kettle. The Mems Club of Christ Chapel voted to donate their evenings collection to the Sal- vation Army Thanksgiving Appeal and one high school boy sent in his own original idea to raise funds for the appeal.

WiIdIife Week.
WHEN IT Is, WHAT 1T is,
WHY 1T rs.

The third annual National Wild
life Week begins March II, 1910.
Sponsored by the National Wildlife
Federation, and endorsed by Pres
idential proclamation, Wildlife Week
reminds the nation that co-ordinated
effort is necessary to protect what
is left of outdoor resources, and to
restore what can be brought back.
It's aim is education in the funda-
mentals of conservation.
The National Wildlife Federation
had its origin at the first North
American Wildlife Conference, call
ed in Washington by the president
in 1886. 1t is not another organ
ization," but an alliance through
which all organizations concerned
with the future Of Wildlife and our
natural resources can function.
Wildlife Week was proposed at the
second North American Wildlife
Conference in st. Louis in 1887 1t
was participated in by widely di-
versified groups in various states
the Izaak Walton League and 9TH
er sportsmen's organizations; gar
den clubs and All clubs; Audubon
Societies and state conservation de-
partments; schools, churches, civic
and business clubs; The American
Legion and Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts,
Campfire Girls-a large section Of
81, 900 local organizations interested
in conservation.
This is the third year for the cele-
bration of National Wildlife Restor-
alton Week. AS in 1898 and 1889
the distribution Of Wildlife Poster
Stamps will be carried on by the
National Wildlife Federation and its
state, county and local affiiates.
The first outstanding achievement
of the National Federation is the
Pittman- Robertson Federal-Aid-to-
Wildlife Act, turning back to the
states, for wildlife restoration prof.
ects, all federal excise tax funds
on the sale OF sporting arms and
ammunition which will amount to
