Hitler Is Reported
Expecting 10 Defeat
Britain by October
Petoin Regime Then Could
Return TO Paris, kuzi
Sources Tell luvul
BY PAUL GHALI,

Chicago Daily News Foreign CORRESPONDENT.
VICHY, Aug. 31.-Fuehrer Adolf
Hitler expects to conquer England
by october and in that event Mar
shall Henri Petain's Vichy regime
would be welcomed to a Paris re-
stored as Frances capital.
That Is the qualified promise
which Vice Premier Pierre Laval has
brought back, after a conference in
Paris with Otto Abetz, Nazi Anbas-
sador to France, and high Reich
military authorities.
Laval, successor designate to Mar
shall Petain as chief of state, re-
turned to Vichy Thursday night
after what he called an extremely
cordial" exchange of views. Indede,
Abetz, accompanied Vichy-bound
Laval as far as Fontainbleau. With
Nazi authorities, he canvassed those
numerous problems which still
clamor for solution as a prelude to
consolidated peace between France
and Germany.
Objections Repeated.
Laval reiterated Vichy's desire for
transfer to Paris, but the Germans
amiably repeated their previous OBJ
lection: That Nazi military prepa-
rations for prosecution of their
blitzkrieg against England would be
jeopardized by the presence in Paris
of French government, diplomats
and journalists.
An additional reason preferred
was concern for the security of the
Petain government as the r. A. F.
has been remarkably active in the
skies over Paris and vicinity.
Laval was told that the British,
apparently using German parachut-
ist tricks, are throwing divisions"
OF them on French soil to inquire
about German military activity.
These parachutists, it was alleged,
try to pass under various DISCUSSES
which the Germans originated.
No Free Communication.
Laval was given no encourage
ment when he pressed for country
wide postal relations, immensely de-
sired by Vichy. Possibility that
British parachutists might obtain
military intelligence through inter-
ception of mails 9r through contact
with French anti-Nazi agents was
submitted as a reason for non-re-
sumption of postal (or any other
communication between occupied
and unoccupied France. For proper
censorship over free postal inter-
change, said the Germans, they
would require some 10000 French
speaking cenSors-an impossible
achievement even for the Germans.
Closer economic relations was a
major subject reviewed in Paris. It
is believed that Laval and the Nazis
outlined the framework of French
collaboration with GermanyS eco
nomic projects, as urged by such
prominent pro-German journalists
as Marcel Deaf and CASTOR Bergery.
One political outcome of Lavals
| talks, it is expected, will be recon-
struction of the Petain cabinet to
weed out lukewarm ministers who
the Germans feel might render CO.
| operation with Berlin more difficult.

the legislation.
At the same time he wired "all
good luck" to the vice presidential
nominee, Secretary of Agriculture
Wallace, and told reporters that the
Secretary's acceptance on Thurs
day night spoke for itself "ex-

routine business handled by the
President today was the signing of
legislation by which the Library of

Hitler Versus Freedom

recognize the Nazi machine for what it a revolution that

ROrne'S Influence
In Palestine
BY ROMAN SLOBODIN

There has been no news from
Palestine of action by the British
authorities against Fascist Italian
priests. Part of them presumably
could be dealt with as any other
enemy aliens, but it would be a
ticklish matter to round them up
and intern them, particularly if
they had been discreet about their
activities. And some of the CathO-
lie clergy have immunity as dipIO-
matte representatives of the Vati-
can State, or are legally neutral
as its subjects.
Notable among these is Mgr.
Luigi Barlassina, Catholic Patri-
arch of Jerusalem. Mgr. Barlassi-
ma apparently is continuing to
function uninterruptedly in his
powerful position, despite the fact
that, if report in the Manchester
Guardian is to be accepted-and
it appears to be borne out by
news from Rome-he is the candi-
date of the Axis powers to head
the Palestine Government under
their rule, when (and if) they Sue
coed in driving out the English.
According to the Guardian re-
port, the Axis plans to turn Pal
estine over to jurisdiction of the
Vatican State, which would take
charge of the Holy Places, while
Italy would exercise the real SOW
ereignty, and the Jewish pOpula-
ton would be transported to Alb
yssinia.
A JTA despatch from Rome
says that thirty bishops tele-
graphed Mussolini urging him to
conquer Palestine and raise the
italian flag over the Church of the
Holy Sepulchre.
These reports do not conflict
with what is known or believed in
Palestine regarding Mgr. Barlas-
Sina'S attitude, which the Jewish
population, at least, regards as
strongly prO-FaScist and anti Iii
OniSt. The Patriarch has on Occa-
sion shown hostility to ZiOnism by
pubic action, as when he insisted
on criminal prosecution of an edi-
tor of Hebrew paper which had
published an offensive joke. The
Palestine Government wanted to
let the incident pass in the OBJ
scurity which it deserved, but the
Latin Patriarch forced a public
scandal and a trial which could
only serve to inflame passion and
prejudice.
The Roman Catholic Church, of
course, is one of the powerful fac
tors in Palestine. It's Official posi-
ton is recognized by law-it has
judicial power over all Roman
Catholic citizens of Palestine in
legal matters affecting personal
status, such as marital and in
herltance questions. 1t owns vast
properties. Within very wide linn
its, it is, in practice, sovereign in
its own institutions.
Not all the Roman clergy and
institutions in the country are
Italian, of course. There are
French, Irish, Polish, German and
other churches, mOnasteries, con-
vents, hospitals, schools. But the
hierarchy is unquestiOnably Ital-
ian-dOminated. The attitude of the
Vatican itself toward ZiOnism I'M
der Pope Plus XII and the late
Pope Plus XI, has been, on the
whole, friendly or benevOlently
aIOOf. But the hierarchy in Pales-
tine is quite clearly Italian DOM
mated, FaSciSt-minded n d hos
file to the Jewish National Home.

Ans: The condition of your hair
is very, very poor. 1t is in need of
lots of scalp treatments and you
must arrange to 60 to the beauty
parlOr at least once a week or learn
to treat your hair at home. You
should give yourself hot (warm) oil
treatments regularly each week
and brush your hair for at least a
half hour each night. Once you
have it healthy again, it will not
be so hard to keep it that way.
M. V. L.: l have a common law
husband who has been very good to
me but New Years Day I was very
angry because he had stayed out
all night and l said many things l
shouldn't and he says he will never
do good by me any more. Is this
true?
Ans: It's going to take a long
time to convince him that you said
these things on the spur Of the mo-
ment and you are sorry now. He
shouldn't have stayed away and
you shouldn't have caused a scene,
but if you make up your mind to
try to prove to him that you are
sorry, he will certainly change his
viewpoint too.
M. R. K: | have three children
and they are away from me. Please
tell me if l will be able to get them
back with me again?
Ans: No, not any time in the
near future. If it is at all possible,
you should make up your mind to
get married and start life anew.
You need to stop worrying and to
settle down and try to find some
happiness in the world.
R. M. j.: Will my husband take
me and the BABY back again or
what is in his mind right now?
Ans: At the present time he is
so wrapped up in this other girl
that he doesn't have time to even
give you and the baby a thought.
Continue to do the best you can
without him, and try to adjust your
life so that you do not 60 on worry
ing about your husband for he
doesn't intend to do the right thing.

and, of course, she loves him and
he says he likes her, but l have my
doubts. Does he care?
Ans: Not very much. If he loved
your sister he wouldn't act so darn
independent no, she is running
after him by visiting him at his
home and doing all the letter writ
ing and telephOning. She is in for
a big letdOwn if she doesn't begin

E. c.: / have a small fruit and
chicken farm and I am interested
in renting or leasing it to someone,
and | wish to know if this would be
wise step for me to take?
Ans: Dispose of the farm alto
gether. Advertise it for sale, and
put an attractive price on the farm
and get it off your hands. You don't
have the time to spend fOOling with
it, and you aren't physically able to
continue running the place your
self. This season of the year is an
excellent time to get a buyer for
the place.
R. P. P: A fair deal is all that l
ask in the home. But my wife
doesn't seem to want to do the right
thing. I never quarrel with her and
it has been my motto to always be
kind, especially to your wife, and 1
wonder what steps should be TAX
en-? e.
Ans: The unhappiness you are
experiencing right now isn't neces-
sary you allow your wife too
many privileges and do not demand
enough of her time. Insist that she
place you before all her friends, and
have her stop criticizing you to
others. You do your share, and let
her know that you expect the same
from her, or you will seek happi-
ness elsewhere. She will change if
you get in behind her.
J. B.: l am working at the pres
ent time but I can get on the
WPA if l care to and | wonder
which would be the better for me
to do?
Ans: Hold to your job. Give
someone else the advantage of the
job that is open to you on the WPA.
l do think that you could better
yourself by getting a job of little
different nature, but it isn't neces-
sary for you to think of getting
work on the WPA.
C. M. R.: Please tell me if my
hair will ever grow longer and
thicker. What can l do to make it
pretty?
