Eden Advises Europe
To Accept 8.Point
Formula for Peace
War Output Of Britoin,
Allies and U. S. Held
Far Short of Needs
BY the Associated Press.

LONDON, Aug 30.-Anthony Eden
advised Europe today to choose the
British American peace as formu-
lated at the Roosevelt Churchill
Atlantic Conference over Adolf Hit
ler's new order" as stressed at his
secret meeting with Benito Musso-
lini on the Russian war front.
The eight-point declaration of
President Roosevelt and Prime Mini
ster Churchill. he said, establishes
principles which will be equally valid
for all nations" and excludes all
idea of hegemony or zone leadership
in the east or west"
The program will require the
collaboration of us all he added
in a speech to munitions workers at
Coventry in WI IN he emphasized
the need for more arms for all fronts
of the world.
War Output Held Inadequate.
The output of war material by
Britain, her Allies and the United
States still falls far short of our
needs" he said
These needs will grow "as the
tide of war sweeps wider until it
engulfs the world" the foreign sec
retary warned.
Declaring Britain must help meet
the needs of the Russian fighting
forces, he said here is a call to
duty which We cannot fail"
He said the battles of the war
so far showed that Ito be short of
materials is the most costly method
of waging war" and that Britain
must increase her own war produc-
ton.
Russia's Cause Britain's.
Britons cannot be content, he
added, until our men command
in every army weapons which in
design and execution are fully the
match for the best the enemy
can do"
The foreign minister told his audi
ence, made up largely of munitions
workers, that the cause for which
the Russian soldier is giving every
thing is "ours as we'll as his"
"All over the world" he declared.
1--WE need your weapons, in Russia
in the Far East. in Libya and over
Germany"

Flag Hoisted Over
Capital Of City;
Much Laid Waste
~ the Associated Press.

b. the Associated Press.
HELSINKI, Finland, Aug. 80
Finland's flag was raised again
today over Viipuri. a key to the
defense of Leningrad, after Fin
nish troops had smashed three
Red Army divisions and stormed
the city, the nigh command an
nounced.
The Firms had encircled the Ka-
relian capital several days ago, the
communicate said, and some even
had crossed the dangerous Vlpurl
Bav to thwart Russian attempts
to break out of the ring.
Three Divisions Smashed.
Three Russian divisions-the 43d,
ll5th and 133d-were smashed IN
that frustrated effort, the commu-
nique asserted.
. 1t said Finnish troops launched
the final assault this morning, en-
tered the burning city and holsted
their flag over the ancient Viipuri
Castle.
Before Finnish occupation OF
Viipuri, only rs miles north OF be-
leaguered Leningrad, the Russians
attempted to devastate the city, 1t
was reported officially.
Fire brigades were said now to be
working desperately to save as much
as possible, but the railroad station
and a medieval clock tower were
reported demolished.
Much of City Laid Waste.
The Helsinki radio said a large
part of the Karelian Isthmus city,
the second largest in Finland before
1t was taken by Russia in the win
ter war of 1939-40, had been laid
In waste.
Finnish spearheads. driving down
the isthmus toward Leningrad, were
said to have reached Kivennapa,
about miles above the former Rus
sian-Finnish frontier.
Finnish air observers reported
two days ago that many fires were
raging in Viipuri, indicating the
Russians were destroying the city
before withdrawing. The fires
could be seen as far away as Lap
peonranta, 80 miles to the north
west, they said.

Inventor Of HaIftone
Engraving Process Dies
By the Associated Press,

BY the Associated Press.
ORANGE, N. j.. Aug. 30.-Stephen
Henry Horgan, 81, inventor of the
halftone engraving process, died to-
day.
His first halftone cut. shanty-
town scene, was published in the
New York Daily Graphic, for which
he worked, in 1880. BY 1893 he was
art director of the New York Her
aid and wrote James Gordon Ben
nett, its owner, that he could make
halftones for use on that newspaper.
Bennett consulted his pressroom su-
perintendent and was informed that
any one who thought halftones
could be printed on the then-mod-
ern, fast newspaper presses was an
idiot. Horgan was discharged.
The inventor then took his idea
to Whitelaw Reid of the New York
Tribune and proved it would work.

War Supply Problem
Reported Topic Of
Dictators' Meeting
Oil and Other Materials,
Except Food, Believed
Sought by Axis Chiefs
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
ROME, Aug. 30.-The problem OF
supply-particularly of raw material
for carrying on the war in its third
year-was understood in political
circles today to have been one of
the chief subjects discussed in the
five-dsy meeting between Adolf Hit
ler and Berito Mussolini.
The Axis powers we're believed to
have enough food in prospect but,
it was said, oil and other raw mate
rials remain to be found.
Usually well-informed political
sources said Premier Mussolini al
ready had agreed before the meeting
at the Fuehrer's front headquarters
to supply as many soldiers for the
Russian front and workers for Ger
many as Italy's ally required, max
ing the italian contribution to the
Russian campaign much more than
mere token representation.
Purpose to Visit Front.
1t was assumed that they discussed
methods by which all Europe, in
Guiding Turkey and Portugal, would
be brought into the new order" and
made one solidly occupied continent
with all strategic places held against
possible invasion by British, and
perhaps by American, forces.
Reliable observers indicated that
a primary purpose of Mussolini's
visit to Hitler was to inspect the
eastern front and, at the same time,
produce a statement which would
offset the war aims propouHded by
President Roosevelt and British
Prime Minister Churchill.
Leaving for the Russian front just
a week after burying his son, Bruno,
killed in the crash of bomber he
was test-fying, II Duce took his
elder son, Vittorio. along with him,
it was disclosed.
Officers said the Premier covered
more than 5000 miles by train,
10000 by airplane and about 300
by automobile in six days.
Axis plans for further war opera
ton, said the newspaper II Mes
saggero. were secondary to pre-
else, joint definition of official
character by the two responsible
chiefs of Axis policy"
Such policy, it added, includes
more than just territorial sharing
of free access to the economic pos
sibilities of the continent.
Virginio Gayda, Fascist editor, de-
clared today that the world will
learn soon and on various occasions
something more precise" on the de-
cisions and agreements reached by
Hitler and MuSsolini.
Their purpose, Gayda wrote in the
newspaper II Giornale dItalia, was
ito dominate events of the war in
its rapid and changeable course and
the goals of peace"
