Money

excess banking reserves, potential basis
for an inflationary expansion of credit,
that the Federal Reserve authorities
recommended legislation giving them
greater control over reserves, coupling
with their proposal the discontinuance
of the Presidents dollar devaluation
powers and elimination of other in
f1ationary factors.
Secretary Morgenthau's statement that
there is no present intention to devalue
the dollar further is seized upon by the
critics as one argument for recovery by
Congress of its constitutional power to
control the value of money. To continue
the power in the hands of the Executive
under the circumstances, 1t is asserted,
represents an abrogation of normal
powers of the legislative branch and
needless step toward dictatorship.
Use of the stabilization fund for loans
to China and other countries for sup
port of their currencies rather than that
of the United States is one basis for criti-
cism. There has been little need of sup
port of the dollar. The subsidization OF
Japan by the purchase OF its gold is
viewed as in effect nullifying aid to
China. n-interventionists are fearful
that the fund may be used for loans for
military purposes to European countries.
To allay such fears Secretary Morgen-
thau reiterated before the Senate COM
mittee his intention to make no loans to
belligerents without consultation with
members of Congress.
AS usually has been the case the pres
ent monetary discussions are providing
a forum for theorists whose ideas are far
more radical than any yet sponsored by
the administration. One of the ele-
ments of strength in the administration
position is the middle ground offered be-
tween proposals of the radical extremists
and policies of the pre-New Deal period.

Behind the Lines

All of fighting of past week might still
be overshadowed, however, by ultimate
consequences brewing out of diplomatic
developments.
Under pressure for months to supply
greater quantities of wheat, oil and other
commodities for German war machine,
Moscow government of Soviet Russia
seemed to have its back up this week
perhaps to point of eventual outright
warfare with the Reich.
Although neither Berlin nor Moscow
would give honest count on what ac-
tually is under way, news
Russion leaks from numerous Eu-
Tension ropean centers made COM
posite picture of Russo
German armies massing at numerous
strategic points on their common FROM
tier. In addition, virtual mobilization
of Finnish Army, perhaps to strike back
at Reds In reopening of their war of
l939-40, has been reported from Helsinki.
Most frequently stated as among Ger
man demands upon Soviet is economic
OIIupdIlOll vi llIll Ohl dlllC oCIIlOll-
storehouse OF oil and wheat, and path
way to penetration OF Iran and eventu-
ally India. Other reported objectives
are return of Bessarabia and Northern
Bucovina to Rumania and Withdrawal of
Russian influence from Estonia, Latvia
and Lithuania.
Whatever actually is going on in Ber-
in-Moscow relations, material German
advantage was gained on Wednesday
when German and Turkish governments
signed l0-year- on-aggression treaty
guaranteeing mutual territorial in
tegriuy.
Aside from whatever economic benefits
Hitler may achieve from this bargain.
and presumably his was better side Of
the deal, major advantage will be that
of giving Berlin protection on flank in
case of war with Russia or initiation Of
drive from Syria on Suez and British
dominated Iraq.
Although Ankara government still is
party to pact with London, new alliance
with Germany and almost complete geo.
graphical severance of Turkey from ac-
cess to British aid virtually nullifies this
earlier agreement.
AS prospects of German-Russian con-
flict loomed, London gave immediate
thought to possible military cooperation
with Red forces.
In this direction. with German troop
units already reported inside Finnish ter
ritory and Helsinki government likely to
throw in with Nazis in any fight with
Soviet, London announced that navicerts
no longer will be granted for transit of

TROUBLE FOR BRITAIN IN MEDITERRANEAN
New Lines North Africa Suggested by U. S. Observers

in Africa would be interrupted and
sumed at Britains convenience and tt
supplying of Gen. Wavell's forces would
be greatly facilitated.
At present, the British are having a
relatively difficult time in sending the
Wavell army the tools" necessary to
meet the mechanical German forces.
The transports which are coming
through the Suez Canal or through the
Mediterranean are exposed to the at
tacks of the German air and sea raiders.
A number Of units which could do other
kinds of work have to be detailed as
escorts for those ships and many of the
transports carrying war material from
the United States or Great Britain to
Africa are being sunk.
On the new line which a number Of
experts in Washington consider ideal,
the supplies would be forthcoming with
far less danger than at present. The
Indian Ocean is believed now to be free
Of enemy raiders. Ships from the West
Coast could get into the Red Sea without
having to undergo the present ordeal
of attempting to pass through the Suez
Canal.
Furthermore. many new ports Of sup
plies which are not available now to
Gen. Wavell could be opened up. Be.
sides Port Sudan and possibly Jibuti,
the existing unloading and landing fa-
cihties of the ports and anchorage places
in the Gulf of Guinea would help con-
siderably. OF course, the communica-
tions and the climate in this vast area
are far from satisfactory. But it would
be better, it is believed here. to meet
this type of problem than the difficult
problem of the present days in the North
African regions and in the Eastern
Mediterranean, where the British forces
must encounter the bulk of the Nazi
forces and all their allies.

Tending garrisons and initial equality
in tanks and planes gave attackers op-
portunity to inflict heavy casualties.
AS has been case so often in this war,
however, German superiority in quantity
of planes and motorized equipment
eventually came to bear-AXis reinforce
ments were rushed from as far away as
Tobruk, nearly 80 miles away, where
British occupation force has been under
siege for weeks. BY Wednesday, British
had withdrawn again, with both sides
claiming victory out of entire engage
ment British contending they had
forced disclosure of Axis strength while
easing pressure on Tobruk, Rome Berlin
asserting they had inflicted heavier
losses in men and materiel.
London expressed opinion that course
of fighting in North Africa had indicated
considerable strengthening of Axis forces
on that front with possible intent to
touch off new drive at Egypt and Suez
in near future.
With British taking initiative. even if
not spectacularly successful, on both
African and Syrian fronts, Royal Air
Force likewise was carrying fight tc
enemy in battle of Britain.
For nine successive nights, young Brit
ish bombing pilots roared over German
industrial cities and Nazi-occupied ports
along potential coast. Carrying new type
of super explosive bombs, as we'll as tons
of fire bombs, r. A. F. planes set great
fires in Cologne, Hanover and Duessel-
dorf areas, where much of war equip
ment of today's German Army is manu-
factured.
Even Berlin acknowledged that British

claimed heavy numerical

range bombers which are being supplied
in quantity by American plants.
Brest, Ostend, Boulogne, Rotterdam
and Cherbourg were among the possible
invasion ports lashed by the British flyers
and the same Nazi warships that have
been belabored before in Brest drydocks
were hit again. Believed kept out of
service by this recurring bombing have
been two of Germanys ace fighting
vessels. Scharnhorst and Gneisenau, and

but for the freedom of the whole world.
The Stortings resolution meant that
should our own land be conquered by
the enemy it would be the duty of the
King and the government Immediately
to join the freedom front of the Allied
democracies both as a political symbol
of the free future of the Norwegian
people and in order to throw into the
common struggle the whole of Norway's
available forces and resources, includ-
ing, above all, our merchant fleet.
The King and government have acted
throughout in accordance with that
mandate. We fought In Norway itself
for 62 days and succeeded, in con-
junction with our Allies, in inf1icting
great losses on the enemy war machine.
Nazi Germany was reduced to an abb
solutely inferior position in sea power
and lost $1,000 men. Eventually, how
ever, we had temporarily to abandon the
struggle in Norway and leave our dear
fatherland. 1t was hard decision to
take, but we knew that in Great Brit
ain we should have the opportunity to
organize our resources and play a de-
cisive part in the war effort of the
democracies.
June 10 marked the 1st anniversary
Of our arrival in Great Britain. AS we
enter another year in exile, we again
take the resolution to devote every
ounce of energy to the struggle for
democratic victory and better world.
Have Nucleus of New Army.
Today there are thousands of free
Norwegians who have come as volun-
teers from all over the world to join
the Norwegian military forces. Today
we have in Britain the nucleus Of
new army, with modern equipment,
which will be ready to 60 as an expedi-
tionary force of freedom to drive the
enemy out of our land. Today We have
a new Norwegian Navy, with larger
number of ocean-going vessels than at
any time before. Today, II months after
our tiny air force was smashed to bits
in the fight in Norway, we have built up
modern Norwegian air force with
seaplanes, fighters and bombers.
Our forces have already seen action.
They took part in the famous Lofoten
raid, as a result of which no fewer than
300 young Norwegian volunteers were
brought over to join the free Norwegian
forces. Recently, the royal Norwegian
Navy planned and carried out raid
of its own on German occupied Norway,
and day by day Norwegian warships
patrol, sweep mines and serve on convoy
duty in the North Sea and in the At
lantic. The first units of our air force,
too, are already at their action stations.
But 1t is in the midst of the battle
of the Atlantic that free Norwegians
are playing their greatest part. These
IS 900 sailors are daily doing what they
consider their duty, regardless OF the
risks. In spite of mines, torpedoes and
bombs, they are carrying the tri-color
Norwegian ensign from port to port in
ceaseless effort to supply Britain and the
other allied theaters Of war with the
