Senate Approves
Naval Air Bases
On British Sites
Action on Appropriations
Hos Force of Rotifyine
Deal for Destroyers
By the Associated Press.


The Senate approved today estab-
lishment of naval air bases on sites
acquired from Britain in exchange
for United States destroyer, an ac-
ton which the Senate Naval Com
mittee said would have the effect of
congressional ratification of the
exchange.
The action came when the Sen
ate passed a s245 ,228 500 authori-
zation for naval public works, in
cluding, besides the work at the
British bases, development of facili-
ties at Guam and Samoa, in the
Alaskan area, at various other Pa
cific locations. in the Canal Zone
in the Caribbean and in Continental
United States.
The Naval Committee reported
that of the total. $50 .250000 repre-
sented the amount necessary to
complete the establishment of bases
on British soil
The measure goes back to the
House for action on Senate amend
ments.
Although the recent transfer of
certain of our destroyers to Great
Britain in exchange for leases on
certain land" the committee re-
ported to the Senate. has to all
intents and purposes been consum-
mated, this exchange has not yet
been sanctioned by the Congress
and therefore authorizations for ap-
propriations for naval air stations
not authorized by the Congress
might not be in order.
For this reason the House of Rep
resentatives amended the bill to au-
thorize the establishment of naval
air stations at the places leased
from Great Britain, the effect of
which will be congressional ratifca-
ton of the exchange"

Father Walsh Tells
6. u. Students u. ).
Already Is al War
Leuse-Lend Bill Will Make
Capital Legal Target
For Bombing, He Says

An actual declaration of war by
the United States would be merely
dotting the is and crossing the is
of an existing situation the Rev.
Edmund A. Walsh, S. j., vice preSi-
dent of Georgetown University, told
a student convocation in CASTOR
Hall today.
You are already at war" Father
Walsh said. Many international
lawyers say that the destroyer trans
fer to Great Britain last fall put us
into the war"
Father Walsh brought the serious
ness of the international situation
home to the Georgetown campus in
answering the question: What is
our duty as students?" Briskly and
seriously, he told the young men
their duties will be taken care of
for you," and reminded them that
they were a part of the things"
put at the disposal of the President
under the lease-lend bill.
Bombing Targets Here.
Answering other questions, Father
Walsh also declared that with enact
ment of the lease-lend bill the
Washington Navy Yard and other
local spots where war materials are
being manufactured will become
legitimate targets for bombing
1t is necessary to study the his
tory of the last 20 years before max
ing a decision regarding the present
world turmoil, Father Walsh said
He asked the students to make up
their minds whether the war in
Europe was merely "a vulgar dog
fight on the curbstone of history or
an earthquake that was deeply af-
fecting all human history"
His firm opinion, he said is that
something epochal is happening and
that this current international war
fare is one important act in great
tragedy. He said this moment of
international tragedy began with the
launching of organized hatred as a
system of Statecraft.
Capitalism Modified.
Father Walsh termed the present
war the final act Of tragedy of
hatred begun by Soviet Russia" The
hatred first noted in early Soviet re-
lations has been inherited by sci
entific government-Germ - he
said.
He advised the students TO form
their own opinion regarding the
present war without consideration Of
whether they personally liked the
British Empire. He also said in
answer to a question regarding sur
vival of the theory of capitalism.
that the system already had been
modified

situation in Libya and Eritrea re
mains unchanged.
A British force driving out of con-
quered Italian Somaliland has cap
tured a town las miles inside the
Ethiopian frontier and a military
spokesman said the unit appeared
on its way to cut the Adds Ababa-
Jibuti railway.
A British communique yesterday
announced the fall of the Ethiopian
town of Gabre-Darra, on the arid
Ogaden plateau, about 270 miles
southeast of Diredawa. where the
railways dips to the south on its
way to the Ethiopian capital from

British troops operating along the
main road from the captured Somali
capital of Mogadiscio to Harar. in
Central Ethiopia, not far from Dire
dawa, moved at the rate of almost
so miles a day in reaching Gabre-
Darra.
British dispatches from this re-
gion said the Italians were in full
fight through the Ethiopian hills
and pilots on reconnaissance patrol
said they could see white flags 10C
miles in advance of the rolling Brit
ish troops
Successes also were reported in
the Gojjam district northwest of
Adds Ababa, where, communique
said, native Ethiopian forces were
pursuing retreating Italians.
A military spokesman said ap-
proXimately 30 per cent of Italy's
East African empire now lies in the
hands of the British after two
months of fighting, in which he said
more than 21.O00 italian prisoners
were taken. He said the British
control 188.200 square miles of a
total of 100000 in italian East
Africa.
Al italian communIque reported
that British force outside Cheren
had been attacked and broken up"
and added that italian planes
bombed the Cirenaican capital of
Bengasi, now held by the British
while the German high command
said Nazi planes bombed British
armored units east of Allen El Cad
in Cirenaica.
One German bomber was said tc
have crashed in flames, killing its
crew of four, during a Nazi attack
on Malta yesterday, in which DNB

said three British planes were de-
stroyed and hangers set afire.

Bedtime Stories
BY THORNTON w. BURGESS.

ny lhOnN1ON w. bUh0ESSs
For two nights Buster kept away
from that part of the Green Forest
where the sugar naples grow. BY
that time he felt quite himself again.
You see the red pepper Farmer
Browns Boy had put in the sap
Buster drank had done him no real
harm. Farmer Browns Boy had
had no desire really to harm Buster.
He merely wanted to teach him that
those sap pals were not to be
meddled with.
Buster had done great deal OF
thinking, but he was as puzzled
as ever over what had happened
to him. He wanted to find out about
it and the only way he could think
of to find out about it was to go
back where it happened. So the
third night found Buster Bear steal
ing back toward the sugar naples
Buster didn't make sound. Big
as he is, and clumsy looking as he
is, Buster Bear can move through
the Green Forest as silently as the
little folks who live there. Every
few steps Buster stopped to listen
and test the air with his nose. He
was full of suspicion, was Buster
Bear.
BY and by Buster came to the tree
where he had taken that drink of
sap which had made him feel as if a
million bees were inside of him.
There hung that shiny tin pail just
as before. Buster sat up and glared
at it. He wanted to reach out and
smash it by blow of one of his
big paws, but, no, sir, he didn't dare
He was afraid of that tin pail. You
see, he felt that somehow that pail
was to blame for what had happened
to him. 1t looked harmless enough,
but then it had looked just as harm
less that other time. So Buster was
content to glare at it and growl
ugly threats way down deep in his
throat.
But the shiny tin pail didn't seem
to mind those ugly threats and
finally Buster went on. On every
big sugar maple hung one or more
of those shiny tin pals. Buster
growled at each one. but he didn't
touch one of them. No, sir, he didn't
go near enough to look into any of
them to see If they held any of that
delicious sweet water. Buster didn't
intend to be caught twice in any
such scrape as that last drink had
got him into.
Several times he stopped to listen
to faint sounds which came to him
from the little sugar house where
Farmer Browns Boy and Farmer
Brown were making sirup and sugar.
BY and by wandering Little Night
Breeze tickled Busters nose with
smell of that sirup. Busters mouth
watered. 1t seemed to him that
never in his life had he wanted
anything quite so much as he
wanted some of that sirup. But he
was afraid to go my nearer, and so
he just wandered about uneasily.

Fred G. Orsinger, director of the

seine the waters for game fish and
exhibits and then begin their repair
work on the canal bank
Mr.. Orsinger will supply nets and
spend the day instructing the c. C..
c. boys. He said game fish will be
returned to the canal waters for
fishermen, and carp, eels and other
commoners will be liberated in the
Potomac. Any prize specimens
caught will do their swimming there
after in the aquarium tanks.
Director Orsinger has just COM
pleted triumphant trip to New
York. where he secured more than
$50 fish from the defunct Battery
Aquarium.
