Today we need to be one peop1e-tc
be united on the things in which we
all believe. Our personal duty is plain
first to give to all others the same con-

and second, not to look for trouble, moi
to take everything personal y, or tc
take offense without due cause.
Let us, therefore, not be touchy-but
let us meet our fellow Americans half

operation, and work with them for the

LONDON. Feb. 12.-Authorita-
tive British quarters today issued
a blanket disclaimer of all reports
regarding armistice negotiations
between Britain and Italy.
These sources said the meeting
between Premier Mussolini and
Spanish Generalissimo Francisco
Franco was not interpreted by
London as a move toward peace.
They declared Britain has not
received any such overtures from
Italy and that Britain has made
no such offer to the Italian gov
eminent.

DENIED IN ROME

Gtalian officials in Rome like
wise denied the armistice
rumors. terming them "fantas-
tically ridiculous" and trial ball
loons.D
British quarters believed the
most plausible explanation of the
Mussolini-Franco meeting to be
that II Duce is asking Franco for
aid in return for ltalys favors
during the Spanish civil war, when
Italian forces aided Franco.
In addition, these circles said,
Mussolini may be asking Franco
TO permit German troops 10 pass
through Spain for an attack
against Gibraltar.
But the London News Chronicle
said Premier Mussollni possibly
intends TO ask Spanish mediation
in discussion of a separate Anglo
Italian peace.
The newspaper added, however.
that I'll would be most unwise' TO
conclude the Italian government
is not increasingly influenced by
the presence of German troops in
Italian cities and towns, or that IT
has reached the point OF suing for
peace.

WASHINGTON. Feb. 12.-Es-

the FBI and not for members Of
Congress, in the opinion of DR..
Rudolph c. Tenerowicz of Detroit.
1t was on this ground. he said
today, that he voted against the
House resolution and appropria-
ton to continue the work of the
Dies committee.
The former mayor of Ham,
tramck. who represents the largest
Polish constituency in the United
States. also voted against the
feaSe-fend bill because IL seemed
likely 20 lead us into war"
Explaining his stand on the Dies
committee. Tenerowicz said:
1.-THE motives behind the Dies
committee / uphold, and with
them I believe that all un-Amer-
lean activities should be exposed
and the offenders apprehended.
But, on the other hand, do not
believe that a temporary. un-
trained group Of men should
handle the job.
DUPLICATED SERVICE
"The continuance Of the Dies
committee il a duplication OF
service and Is an admission on
our part that the Department
of Justice Is incapable OF coping
with espionage and un-Americsn
activities-which charge I be-
lieve TO he absolutely untrue.
1.-THE Dies committee Is COM
posed of duly elected congress-
men who are paid to do the Job
of being a congressman and l
know they have their hands full
doing just that job
BEST FOR AMERICA
Applying his stand on the
lend-lease bill. TenerowicZ, a lieu
tenant in the World War, stated:
"As the son Of Polish parents.
and representing as I do one of
the biggest olish-American dis
triets In the United States, my
sympathies and political inclina-
tons were wholly in favor OF the
bill. Certainly ] sympathize COM
pletely with the cause of the
Poles in Europe as well as the
British.
From my own analysis Of the
measure, however, am con-
WINGED that II is dangerous to
our own security as Americans.
and might well lead us into war.
"Our salvation as a free people
Is TO vote and act as Americans,
and that IL what l did"

Jackson Snead, the hillbilly how
itzer from Hot Springs, Va, today
was the red-hot gallery favorite
as the winter golf brigade went
out for the $1,000 western open.
Snead served warning that his
game was on edge yesterday when
he breezed around the Phoenix
country club with a 66, five under
par, in practice. He won the Bing
Crosby invitational tournament at
Del Mar last week and appeared
to be still in top form.
Defending champion Jimmy De-
maret of Houston, Tex. has 60
in practice, while Johnny Revolta
had 81 and Johnny Bulla and
Clayton Heafner had 68's on the
pool table" course.
The betting put Snead and De-
maret as co-favorites at 81. Ben
Hogan, last years leading pro-
fessional money! winner, and PGA
champion Byron Nelson were 10-1.
Other low-priced entries were Dick
Metz, Henry Picard, Craig Wood,
Ralph Guldahl, Jimmp Thomson
and Leonard Dodson.
Ed Oliver was another to watch.
He set the competitive course rec
ord of 81 here year ago in winning
the Phoenix open. Two years ago
Nelson set PGA competitive record
of 1873 for the 54 holes of the Phoe-
