THEIR CAUSE LOST

Night before last, word reached Juneau that the America First Committee had been dissolved
 By that time, the United States had been at formal war with Japan for four days and at formal war with Germany and Italy for one day. The iso- lationist group died hard but when the real crises came there was no room for any movement against war in this country while bombers, ships and soldiers were going to work in earnest to win a war from the enemies of freedom.
 The most eolorful figure, from the public standpoint, in the America First movement did not wait for declaration of abandonment of the isola- tionist cause to throw his cause in with our war effort Early Monday, Charles A. Lindbergh tLucky Lindy) decided that is the time to fight good war not argue about the wisdom of fighting. In a statement to the press Lindy said:
 We have been stepping closer to war for
 many months Now it has and we

MADAME LITVINOFF

Nine Of his years in exile. were spent in London where he sold cor sets, served as a clerk in publish ing company. and married Ivy Lowe, niece of Sir Sidney Lowe and re- lated to Sir Maurice Lowe, we'll known to Americans as the Wash ington correspondent of the Lon don Telegraph.
 Ivy Lowe Litvinoff has been one of the most controversial charact- CTS in Russia. After her marriage she became an ardent Communist though, because of her bourgeois Background, her loyalty always has been suspect in Moscow. There she conducted salon frequented by the literati, She translated Russian novels into English and became Moscow,s No. l hostess.
 Frequently she accompanied her husband to Geneva on his appear ances before the League of Nations, at. which times she took great de- light in tripping up U. S. Ambas- sador Hngh Gibson, and other U.

mediately began to propagandize for the Russian Revolutionary Democratic Party.
 By the time he was 24 he had be- come a member of the BolShevlK central committee in KieV, and a year later. in 1901, he was arrested ard sentenced to exile in Siberia. Before he could be sent to Siberia, however, Litvinoff escaped and fled to Switzerland.
 The next fifteen years of Litvin- offs life were spent in very danger ous visits to Russia or in the comp any of Stalin, Lenin, Trotsky and other exiles in Switzerland, France and England.
 once, in 1906, Litvinoff turned up in Paris with huge batch of Rus sian paper money which the Con- munists of the Caucasus, under the leadership of Stalin, had seized in a raid on the Cars treasury in Tiflis. It was Lityinoff's job to change the money into smaller de- nominations and distribute it to party members in Paris. But he was caught with some of the money on him and expelled from France,
 Twice during his years in exile he sent ships loaded with munitions to Russia to start revolution, but in both cases the ships were sunk.

JAILED IN LONDON

Because Litvinoff had lived in England for five years, he was made the first Ambassador to Lon don after the Soviet finally estab- lished diplomatic relations with His Majesty's Government. As such, he spent a month in jail, held as a hostage for the British agent Bruce Lockhart, who was held in Moscow. During his imprisonment, the Am bassador's sense of humor prompted him to hong this sign on the door of his cell:
 Military Guest of His Majesty
 Afterwards, Litvinoff was de- ported, and returned to the Rus sian Foreign Office where he served under the famous Tchitcherin. The two were in constant conflict, each with his own personal following which tried to dominate the Foreign Office.
 Finally, Tchitcherin became in- sane, retired from office and was kept under guard for four years.
 But just as Litvinoff achieved his ambition of becoming Foreign Minister, he suffered the terrible experience of having most of his staff purged from under him. Twenty-Five chiefs and assistant chiefs were shot, exiled or com mitted suicide. Every important di- vision except three was cleaned out completely. Most conspicuous was First Assistant Commisar Krestinsky who had been Soviet Ambassador to Germany He was shot.
 Many of Litvinoff's friends con sidered him lucky to have wealth cred this storm. His political eclipse did not come until Stalin got ready to make a marriage of convenience with Germany. And considering the fate of his asso- eiates, Litvinoff's mere relegation to back seat, and his present comeback as Ambassador to the U. $. A. stamp him as something of a phenomenon in Soviet Russia

THE TRY THAT FAILED

Japanese adopted a Nazi tactic Sunday when they sprung their surprise attack in the Pacific The fine hand of Hitler was easily detected in those death dealing raids.
 But apparently the week wears on the Nip pon forces were not able to grab quite the war ads vantage from their maneuver which they must have hoped would result. Perhaps they did not learn their Nazi lesson well '', ef' N P' oh 4f NAf
 The purpose of such surprise attack, of course is to get the j1rnp the enemy and have deiins ite head start in the war. But American forces, while not ready at the instant of attack were cer- tainly not caught mapping. ssae tstsfN 'e

Further bringing unity of purpose into the American scene early this week was John L. Lewis who also made statement early in the week to show that he has subversve feathers showing far as the course taken by the government is concerned.
 w!laLeWis declared:

 Congress and administrative government must be supported and every aid given to the men in the combat services of country. neeS"Each true American will cooperate and unified effort becomes living reality. oe with all other citizens I join in the support of government to the day of it's ultimate tri- umph over Japan and all other enemies"

Caught Red-Handed

innph over jip(Philadelphia Record)
 More than month ago President Roosevelt re- vealed German plans to abolish all religions and establish azi-dominated church with credo de- rived from Hitler's "Mein Kampf"'
 There was some scoffng in this country. yeal There were loud denials from Berlin a.t, But, now we earn--not from Washington, not from London--but in dispatch from Berlin passed by thep German censor, that the Nazis do have a blueprint for abolishng the Christian religion.
 The proof yis contained in book called "Gott und Vok" God and Nation) widely circulated among Nazi elite. When recall that possession by Nazi party members of forbidden literature means loss of party membership if not a concentration camp and that publishers have great difficulty il, obtaining paper for any but official books-we don't approval ,4
 The book outlines religious new order that would replace all Christian churches, whether Catho- lie or Protestant with national German faith.
 The book declares: We Germans have been called by fate to be the first to break with Christi anity; it is to- be honor"
 It proclaims: Germany is our holy land. It will be our religion"
 This is final proof-athough few of us needed this final proof--that Hitler is the enemy not only of freedom of speech. freedom of assembly and the religion It is reminder, too, that he proposes to abolish not only those churches that might actively oppose him, but all churches.
 There can be no freedom in the world-for any thing but Nazism-as long Hitler lives.

As Christmas draws near all resolutions to be careful will be forgotten, it is fore told. Jewellers and furriers will pro- fit, so will purveyors of musical in- struments and fine furniture.

 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS Goads of many sorts will be felt by the United States Government as it waits on the brink of war. Much criticism will be employed by European leaders who desire the full strength of our nation in aid of the Allies. The stars seem to presage portentous quiet through the holidays when there may be an event of appalling significance.

MONDAY, DECEMBER 1.

Benefic aspects dominate today. Mars is in a place which is read as presaging severe conflict which should be favorable to the Allies.
 HEART AND HOME: Women are subject to stimulating planetary in fluences which should enable them to prepare for memorable holiday celebrations. Whatever pertains to home Inequalities is fortunate to- day which is lucky also for shop ping. Romance will flourish in the holidays with an extraordinary in- tensity. Women of all ages will cherish sentimental ideas under the stimulus of the war spirit and marriages of middle-aged persons will be numerous

SUNDAY, DECEMBER IA

SONDA I, DECEM6ER lf
 Benefic aspects conflict with ad- verse planetary influences today when persons who possess foresight will vision the need of future re- | ligious support in meeting world changes. This is promising con- l figuration for the clergy.
 HEART AND HOME: Church at- tendance should be large under this direction of the stars which | inclines humanity to seek the healing power of faith in the eter- nal laws that govern the universe. There is a sign presaging widen ing consciousness of the spiritual plane of existence. In many na- tions men and women will turn to the divine ruler of the universe and will worship according to many forms and rituals. Evil is to be overcome as it appears in the form of war, but victory of right
 will come with halting steps. i BUSINESS AFFAIRS: Shipping interests will be foremost now and there is a sign read as presaging movements of the United States Navy in the Pacific Ocean. It IS emphasized that the Japanese War is a Mercury war. The influ- ence of the planet has been strong since the beginning of what the ag
 gressors call an incident" There is a sign that presages great eco- homie stress in the Orient while our exports are diverted to South America.
 NATIONAL ISSUES: In seeking friendships with our southern neighbors citizens of the United States are warned against the at
 titude that our country is the most important in the Western Hemis- phere. The seers point out that i there has been too much Yankee boastfulness and even condescen- dation in the past. The war is to level all brides of nationality or achievement as a perception of | the meaning of the universal brotherhood comes through the medium of bloodshed and suffer- ling
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS Our overtures of friendship with the South American countries will be offset by mistakes which re- tard understanding Well-meant efforts to win complete cooperation in Western Hemisphere defense will be thwarted by careless words and injudicious actions. Editors of peri odicals and producers of motion pictures should be careful in pre- senting comments or characteriza- tions which betray our ignorance of the true background and his tory of South Americans and it's varied peoples, astrologers declare.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of a year of sat- isfactory attainment. Extraordin- ary activities and experience are ! forecast.
 | Children born on this day prob- ably will be determined to succeed, we'll endowed with brains and phy- sically able to overcome obstacles of all sorts.
