Unemployment insurance leg

states before the defense drive.
Most such laws provide bene-
fits based on earnings for the
year preceding the claim.
Suppose a man had been
earning $4,000 a year. He would
have a substantial unemploy-
ment benefit coming if he lost
his job. But if he were sudden

served a year at $250-$350, at
the end of that time his unem-
ployment benefit would have

About half of the states al

employment insurance laws to
freeze benefits at the time a
man is drafted, according to
the American Public Welfare
association. It's hard to see how
any state can Justly do less.

''Yes, everything is fine Price agreed.
But we were going to have sales con-

Everything at the factory is okay,"
Nancy insisted. AT home too"
''You got your Aunt Dora to stay with you
as usual?" Margaret asked. Dora was about
as efficient as fuzzy kitten; but at least
she was forty-six years old. YOU'RE getting

''Oh, yes - we're getting along"
And you haven't had too many alterca-
tons with Eva May?"

LAYS later, Margaret began to feel little
like human being. Her head turned back
into head, stayed moored securely to her
body. She began to take an interest in the
room, to observe that there was a rose
colored chair beside the window. girl with
a starched white uniform sitting in it.
Call DR.. Beckley; tell him I'm going
home" Margaret announced. This after
noon!"
The uniform crackled. Il don't believe -

honey sweet practically talking baby talk.

Nancy came, Price with her. They were
both restrained, careful of her, as though she
were something which could be broken by
loudly spoken word.

their soft purrings, which were getting no

Margaret thought What did he tell her?

1885 and 1899, that American denial OF
any responsibility for peace was tragic.
But it will prove equally tragic If, after
definitely aligning our policies with those
of certain belligerentS, we in future re-
peat the earlier blunder of 1919 and
withdraw all support from the structure
of whatever peace is ultimately arranged
in Europe. For it is surely obvious that
if we participate in building a peace
structure, we should also participate in
maintaining it.
In his joint declaration with Prime
Minister Winston Churchill. which has
no real binding force until implemented
by Congress, President Roosevelt prom
ised continuing postwar cooperation
with Great Britain. But that assurance
is in principle at variance with those
sections Of the neutrality law which are
still in effect and unrepealed.
From the viewpoint of the postwar
as well as the present contribution OF
the United States, it therefore seems of
the greatest importance that present
contradictions between executive and
legislative policy be definitely resolved.
That is why every one should welcome
really decisive action on the issue which

Premier Mussolini has not been able to
bolster up the morale of the nation by
offering the victory bromides which Hit
Ter has been dispensing so literally.
The rebellions in France. Yugoslavia,
Czecho-S -Slovakia and the other occupied
territories have been prompted more by
hunger and despair than by hatred Of
the enemy. The coming winter promises
to be worse than the last.
If the flow of supplies can be sent over

food reaches the hungry British and
sufficient airplanes are sent to keep the

Observers believe we cannot do much

see to it that the stuff gets there.

Its industries, based on the products

While the Russian defense problem
was growing acute, President Roosevelt
released at the White House
Note letter showing his firm faith
leok in the lasting qualities of the
Russian resistance. Through
some mystery this letter, addressed to
Josef Stain and given to him by W..
Averell Hartman, the American who
recently visited Moscow, appeared in the
German press before it was released
here. 1t said:
MY Dear Mr.. Stain: This note will
be presented to you by my friend, Averen
Hartman, whom I have asked to be
head of our delegation to Moscow. Mr..
Hartman is well aware of the strategic
Importance of your front and will,
know, do everything he can to bring the
negotiations in Moscow to a successful
conclusion.
Harry Hopkins has told me in great
detail of his encouraging and satisfactory
visits with you. I can't tell you how
thrilled all of us are because of the gall
liant defense of the Soviet armies I am
confident that ways will be found to
provide the material and supplies neces-
sary to fight Hitler on all fronts, in
cluding your own.
Il want particularly to take this occa-
sion to express my great confidence that
your armies will ultimately prevail over
Hitler, and to assure you of our great
determination to be of every possible
assistance"
Members of the Anglo-American mis-
sion to Moscow of which Mr. Hartman
was part expressed the belief in Lon
don on Thursday that Moscow would
hold of the German strike. An uniden-
tilted American official said that if Mos
cow went, the fight would continue. The
Germans, however, expressed confidence
In their offensive. A Berlin spokesman
said:
mo Russian army could be dangerous
to the German forces for more than
two weeks. A small German force con-
sisting of tanks, motorized units and,
not the least. the German air force,
could attack and destroy it in short
order"
Toward the weeks end the Russian
statements began to emphasize the heavy
German losses, but
Russion statements could not
Resistance offset the fact that
Germany was making
territorial gains. However, every Red
Army man must realize the gravity of
the, present moment Red Star maga-
zine exhorted the Soviet fighters.

the Germans had not yet reached the
town of Vyazma itself, although hard

First news of the Nazi advance came

Terrific servers saw in the invigo-
losses rated activity of the German
armies in Central Russia the
meaning of the gigantic" development
which Hitler had mentioned few days
earlier in his Sportspalast speech. But
the news was vague, and it was only
guessed that Moscow was the German
objective. AS the most ferocious and
deadly chapter of the Russian war was
beginning, Alexander Schcherbakov, di-
rector of the Soviet Information Bureau,
issued these figures on Russian losses:
100000 killed, 10000 wounded, $4,000
missing lost, 1000 tanks, $500 guns and
5,3l6 planes. He put German casualties
in Russia at 100000 men, almost as
much in Is weeks of war as the Kaiser
lost in two years in the World War.
Russian estimates of German material
loss in Russia are 1000 tanks, $4,000
guns and 5000 planes. Hitler has
claimed that Russian losses come TO
e,500,O0O men, $4,000 tanks, $4,000 guns
and $4,000 planes.
Late Tuesday the Russians admitted
that the Germans were pressing toward
Moscow. In the eastern reaches of the
Ukraine and on the Sea of Azov's shore
other German armies continued active,

This is result of nearly 25-year-long
Jewish rule which, as Bolshevism, is
basicaly similar to the general form Of
capitalism. The bearers of this system
in both cases are the same: Jews and
only Jews"
The message breathed tender regard
for Germans in considerable contrast
with the sharp pryings OF Gestapo men
into Germans private lives.
When the Germans went past Orel.
England and the United States heard
rumors of peace feelers from Germany
to Russia. A German spokesman denied
these rumors, saying:
I'VE fight until the last Russian divi-
sion is annihilated."
An interesting German comment on
the Russian conduct of the war came
from DR.. Otto Dietrich, Hitler'S per-
sonal press chief who said in Berlin that
the Russians have lacked from the start
real military leadership. The Russian
high command, he said, did what Ger
many hardly dared hope for at the
outset of the struggle last June % by
facing German arms instead of retreat
ing That gave the Germans a chance
to encircle Russians everywhere and 1t
was done without touching vast reserves
and with Germany after three and one
half months still able to launch frontal
attacks.
The prime German object is the cap
ture of armies. DR.. Dietrich pointed out
that the Nazis waited before Kiev long
time not because it was impossible to
storm the Ukrainian capital but because
the high command wanted to be sure
to trap more than 100000 Russians to
the east in the same operation.
Southwest of Kiev there was fighting
during the week. The German high
command told Of German
Azoy break through to the Sea OF
Thrust Azoy west of Dnieperope-
trovsk, cutting off the re-
treat of the 9th Russian army which
had been defeated near Melitopol." The
Azov thrust was credited to a German
tank corps with Italian, Hungarian and
Slovak reinforcements. A unit Of Sclutz-
Staffel speed troops moving along the
Azov coast broke through TO Ossipenko,
about 65 miles east of Melitopol. and
there joined mechanical forces coming
in from the north. The S. S. field unit
continued toward Mariupol 40 miles
northeast of Ossipenko, in pursuit OF
Russian forces trying to reach Rostov at
the River Don's estuary on the Sea of
Azov.
Possession of the shore of the Sea of
Azov would simplify the German move
toward the oil-rich Caucasus.
For the most part all was quiet on
the western front. DR.. Dietrich said
for the benefit of London: Let the
English attempt to make landing in
Norway, Holland, Belgium or on the
French coast and they will learn what
reserves we still have"

some people are near-sighted." Deaf
people write him appreciative letters tell
ing him that his life is an inspiration
to them. But just how hard of hearing
is he? When he attended the 1919
Peace Conference as Secretary of the
American Delegation. one of his diplo-
matte associates remarked: Monsieur
Grew is so deaf that he cannot hear any
proposal which is against American
interests, but he hears perfectly every
thing which works to the advantage Of
the United States"
Legend Made of Dinner.
The japanese have made legend of
the American-Japan Society dinner at
which the American Ambassador re-
piled to the rather bellicose speech of
japanese official. 'Mr. Grew arose
quietly and apologized for failing to
hear some Of the Japanese gentleman's
talk. Looking up smilingly from his
notes, he made q few good-humored
remarks that completely disregarded the
anti-American note in his predecessors
speech.
The Japanese admire Mr.. Crews love
Of sports. He shoots golf in the sos and
has played on % courses in Japan.
He likes baseball, too. and occasionally,
like any other fan, he takes time off
from work to see a game between Japa-
nese teams.
Ambassador and Mrs. Grew are pa
irons Of the arts At the American En-
bassy many a Japanese musician has
found both moral and financial support.
The Crews smile when the subject Is
mentioned, but the Ambassador once
composed piece of music called, La
Valse Mysterieuse.'
Everything concerning the Crews Is
important to Toxic. Once the Ambassa-
dore and Anita were accompanied on one
of their walks by Sambo, their little
Scotty. At the moat of the Imperial
Palace the dog fell into the water. An
unidentified Japanese climbed down,
lifted the Scotty to safety, and ran away.
In the hope of thanking the modest
stranger, Mr.. Grew advertised in the
papers, offering a reward. The entire
capital became so interested in the
search that the man was located He
proved to be chauffeur who knew the
Ambassador by sight and was glad to be
of service to so good friend of Japan.
A few days later Mr.. Grew went to the
Imperial Palace to call on the Emperor.
In all seriousness His Majesty asked:
And how is Sambo now?"
Busy Office Schedule.
Mr.. Crews busy office schedule hardly
fits into the romantic conception of
tea-going diplomat. He is at the chan
celery at every morning for two hours
of dictation, consultation and study of
cables. At II he returns to the residence,
where he usually receives callers until
lunch. These include not only japanese
and Americans, but people from every
where. One caller comes for ADVICE about
an economic problem, the next is con-
cerned over the armament race, the third
brings news about important interna-
tional developments, the fourth may. be
high official or another Ambassador.
These contacts account in part for Mr..
Crews close touch with what is happen
ing in Japan and the world at large.
The personnel of the American EN-
bassy and Consular Service In Toxic
number upward Of 100 persons. To
direct . stan Of this size Il no small
