The hen pheasants are so re-

pasture is a paradise of bird

mind you the time will be
short, because the ill-behaved
magpies are nesting and their
youngsters are the noisiest and

RERIIN June 2t.oP-Adolt
Hitler paid ar extended incognito
visit to Paris yesterday and visit
ed the tomb Of Napoleon, a highly
reliable source said today.
Hitler is known to admire the
French emperor greatly.
While foreign correspondents who
visited the Hotel des Invalides in
Paris last week found the famous
Corsicsn's tomb still covered with
sandbags, all these had been re-
moved by yesterday for Hitler's
visit. the informant said.
Hitler wore a light brown buster
over his uniform as he entered the
Hotel DIES ~Invalides.
Apparently moved, he stood for
a while in the big rotunda whence
one gazes down at the tomb, then
walked to the memorial tablet or
which Napoleon is quoted as fol-
lows:
IT desire that my ashes rest at
the banks of the Seine among the
French people whom I loved sc
dearly"
Both as he arrived and as he
left German guards standing be-
fore the gates presented arms
where French guards used to stand.

ATTACK CONSCIOUS

Newspapers Drop Use OF
Word Invasion Ma
ton Is Aiming
BY j. NORMAN d

DUBLIN, June 26.-R-Ireland
has become "attack conscious and
the term invasion" is frowned up
on by the censor
Irish newspapers do without the
word altogether.
But from whom an attack might
come, or on which side of the little
Shamrock isle, official sources de-
cline to say.
Some weeks ago there was
scare" talk by members of The
government. The man in the pub
just winked a knowing wink and
turned back to his pint of stout.
Now that is changed.
Every gathering in pub, hotel
lobby or on the street discusses
%attack'-and the talk is serious.
Through Dublin streets where
the only men in uniform a month
ago were police, soldiers swins
along in forest green. They carry
swagger sticks-but wear bandoli-
ers of cartridges and have rifles
easily dCCeSSlDle.
A1rplanes drone overhead and
watchful eyes scan the Atlantic
and Irish sea approaches to every
coastal town. =
Figures on the army's present
strength are guarded carefully but
high officers say recruiting has
been satisfactory. They promise an
Irish welcome" for any attacking
force.
Northern ireland is alert, too.
only this week the Ulster gov
eminent at Belfast ordered strict
control of migration to the sir
northern counties to keep guard
against u~ndesirables whose names
are on the "subversive" lists.

In fact, officials OF the agricul-

Behind The Scenes In
Wash ingion'

Observation-Disclosures the Uni
ted States soon prepares and puts
into operation a broad-gauge pro-
gram for new world defense and
economic cooperation, the republic
of Cuba will presently be wholly
dominated by Fascist-Nazi inter-
ests bitterly opposed to everything
the United States stands for.
This, at any rate, is the warning
given by a distinguished Cuban
scientist who is now visiting in
Washington. Since he is about to
return to Cuba, he asked that his
name not be used. He is, however,
a man of standing who is in an ex-
cellent position to know what he
is talking about.
His size.up of the Cuban picture
which has been brought to the
attention of government officials
here-is of interest not only be-
cause of Caba's nearness to the
United States, but also because,
to a certain extent, what is going
on in Cuba is symptomatic OF nany
other Latin-American nations.
SPANISH FAMILIES
PRO-FASCIST
According to this source, then,
here is the picture:
ALI of the old conservative, Span
ish-descent families in Cuba are
deeply Fascist and anti-American
in spirit. Their link with the over
seas relationships is principally
through the Spanish Phalange and
General Franco; the Phalange it.
self is very strong in Cuba.
General Batista, the BOSNIAN in
Cuba, wants to solidify his own
personal power and does not
bother much about any ideologies.
A few years ago he was playing
ball with the Fascist groups; when
the U. S. State Department
frowned he swung more to the
left, and today draws support both
from liberals and conservatives.
In the end, he is likely to string
along with whatever side looks like
the winner, be it American democ-
racy or European totalitarianlsm.
But if there is a strong anti
democratic, pro-Fascist bias
among the conservative and veal
thy classes, among tn e masses
there is a liberal tradition dating
back to the long struggle for in
dependence which is still a power.
This tradition could be made dom
inant, and Cuba could be cement
ed solidly into the lev world demo
cratic bloc-if the right stimulus
came from Washington.
MILITARY MISSION
FIRST STEP
What should that Stimulus be?
According to this Cuban, it should
begin with the dispatch of a high
power U. S. military and naval
mission to Cuba to reorganize the
Cuban defense system. Immediate
ly following this there should be
an economic mission to reorganlze
the country'S economy. by Tying
both moves in together, he be
lieves, overwhelming popular sup
port could be gained-particularly
if al the same time Batista could
be persuaded to clean house polltl-
cally, throw a few g~rafters and
extremists in Jail, and demonstrate
to all Cubans that politics were to
be honest hencefortN.
This would be intervention, OF
course" says this Cuban sciept'St.
But it would be Intervention III
the interests of the people of Cuba,
and they would recognize it as
such. 1t would be an intervention
of democratic diplomacy instead
of dollar diplomacy.
IF something of this sort is not
done soon, Cuba will drift into the
Fascist camp" 1
