The United States government,
II was learned today, believes
that Japans pressure bid TOR
control OF Thailand is part OF .
fwell-patterened Axis plan to
seize control Of the oceans and
thereby dominate the world.
The latest Japanese moves
were described ~ dovetailing
perfectly with Germany's de-
mAnds on Vichy for military and
naval bases In French colonial
possessions, particularly at Da-
kar.
COORDNATED DRIVE
All evidence available, an In
formed source stated, points to
Q coordinated drive by Germany

the Atlantic, while Japl- seizes
similar detectives in the Pacific.
"When - and If - Germany
and Japan accomplish that am
bilious objective" a ranking C.
fetal said, "the Axis powers
could join forces across the
southern oceans nd dominate
the seas, isolating the Americas
for . coordinated attack from
the Pacific Snd the Atlantic"
To win that "strangleholc on
the world" il was pointed out,
the Germans and japanese must
first seize the British and French
strong points that dominate the
worlds seaways, md officials
said that the aggressive plans
now In motion have that objec-
tive.
PART or STRATEGY
Since Japan represents one Of
the jaws In the gigantic pincers
movement, an authoritative
source stated, japanese en-
croachment in 1ndo-C China and
Thailand cannot be considered
in the category of isolated az
erosion, but must be treated as
4 vital element in the. Nazi's
grand strategy.
For this reason, it was ex-
planned, the United States has
assumed q forceful diplomatic
policy designed both to stiffen
French resistance to German de-
mands anG to warn Japan
against further military adven-
lures n the South Pacific before
II Is too late.
Secretary of State Hull en-
phasied the TREMENDOUS scope of

THAT TIRED FEELING

With the change of seasons we
are apt to find ourselves abnormally
tired without quite knowing the
reason why. We often let tiredness
pile up until suddenly and without
warning we find ourselves on the
verge Of exhaustion. Missing that
extra hours sleep one night seems
unimportant but, continued night
after night, it mounts up and leaves
Its mark, not only on our faces but
On our spirits as well.
The consistently tired woman is
never very happy. Haven't you
sometimes noticed that everything
seems wrong, that your spirits
nave reached a new low, and yet
3ou can't put your finger on any one
ching that Is causing such worry
When those dark moments come,
stop and check up on your physical
condition. How much sleep have
you had in the last week? How
regular have your habits been?
There you will usually find the root
o. your trouble.
A tired woman never looks her
best. When you look in the mirror
and are suddenly startled by that
ravaged look, there is no use open
Ing your cosmetic closet and ex-
pecting to repair the damages of too
much wear and tear with creams
and powders and lotions. They do
help, of course, but only superb
cially. You've got to work from the
Inside out to be truly radiant. No
amount of mascara can put the
sparkle back In eyes that feel like

makes the skin feel dry and rough.
A good cream will help but you
