u. 5. Ready 10 Seize
One Billion in Assets
OF Enemy Aliens
Property Of Low-Abiding
Will Not Be Disturbed,
Officials Emphasize
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
The Government prepared today
to seize billion dollars of enemy
alien assets as collateral for any
American claims against hostile ma
tionS, and special force of G-men
was ready to impound the enemy
owned property.
Title to the property to be taken
over is vested in enemy aliens living
outside the United States and Axis
nationals who are in custody.
officials emphasized that the
Government does not intend to dis
turb the property of law-abiding
aliens. For that reason, Germans,
Italians and Japanese need not wor-
ry about their homes and their bank
accounts unless they are in the small
minority which has been arrested
by the Federal Bureau Of Investiga-
ton
Attorney General Biddle has es-
tablished an alien property divis-
Ion in the Justice Department to
administer seized enemy assets. 1t
will be headed by Leo T. Crowley,
chairman Of the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corp. His duties will be
similar to those of the alien prop
erty custodian in the first World
War, who handled s669 ,00o, 900 worth
of foreign assets.
Most Of the enemy property seized
in 1917-18 has been disposed of,
except relatively sr.all amount
which cannot be handled until new
legislation is enacted.
Administration Of enemy alien
wealth costs this Government moth
ing-under the law the expense will
be paid from funds seized.

MOSCOW, Dec. IA (delayed).-
This glistening white capital ex-
changed battledress for its Sunday
best today as its inhabitants cele-
brated the retreat of Adolf Hitler
legions from their near-siege posi-
tions
With group of American and
British correspondents flown In
from Kuibyshev yesterday I viewed
the city's scars and heard from men
and women who stayed grimly by
their posts through two bitter
months of German air and land on
slaughts the epic story of their
struggle for existence.
Residents who underwent as many
as seven air raids in a single day,
and on several days four, told of
hearing the heavy thud of artillery
dNring one bad night when the
Germans came closest. Nightly
they saw on the horizon the flashes
from the big guns reaching for their
city.
No Serious Food Shortage.
There never was any serious food
shortage, residents said. Bread was
always available, they reported, and
they also had rationed meat, po-
tatoes, fats, kerosene and other es-
sentials. Coffee and some other
articles were obtainable without ra-
ton cards. But they went without
tobacco and alcoholic beverages.
Match spectators who appeared
were quickly eliminated
Only once were real fears felt for
the city's resistance, residents said.
That came during the dark days of
October 16 and II, when a mass
exodus accompanied the peak of the
first of two German offensives.
Later in October the residents got
breather, and Muscovites on No
vember quietly celebrated the an
niversary of the Bolshevik revolution
with a Red Square parade.
The tension was renewed Novem-
ber 16 when the Germans launched

John Haynes Holmes,
Pacifist, Offers 10
Quit Pastorafe
Noted New York Cleric
Says He Can't Bless
Or Support War
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Dec. 15.-Effective
"at such time in the uncertain fu-
ture as my retirement may preserve
this beloved church from embar-
rassment, odium or peril" the Rev
John Haynes Holmes has offered his
resignation as minister of the Com
munity Church, which he founded IS
years ago.
Thus the noted 62-year-old cleric
repeated a move taken in the last
World War in an announcement yes
terday before his congregation at
Town Hall, explaining he could not
use his ministry Ito bless, sanction
or support war"
Board to Reject Offer.
The resignation - undated - was
handed to Dominick F. Pachella,
chairman of the church's board of
trustees. which refused to accept it
in 1918, and which, according to
Mr.. Pachella's view, would not ac-
cept it this time.
DR. Holmes, a director of the Amer
lean Civil Liberties Union and active
In civic and philanthropic affairs,
asserted that the American people
were not guiltless In a war which
he described as "the final outrage"
to the will of God, and added
Il thought through my paciflsm
more than quarter of a century
ago and have lived by it ever since.
1t was tried as by fire in the last war,
and again in the more dreadful fire
of this present war. Now that the
flames of this war have spread to
our own shores, it must be tried even
more terribly again"
Says U. S. Must Share Guilt.
1--WE have our share of guilt in this
disaster" he declared In another
part of his sermon. ours is a war
world, to which we have consented
and In which we have participated,
and this is what happens in such a
world. War is the quintessence of
evil. 1t Is the greatest of all evils,
because 1t contains all other evils
within itself. 1t is violence, hatred,
lust, pride, enmity, falsehood, deceit,
and the rest of the complete cata-
logue of crime. From such evil can
come no good thing, but only disas-
ter and doom immeasurable.
Neither as clergyman nor citizen,
he said, would he participate "in the |
armed hostilities of this hour" but |
neither would he oppose, obstruct,
or interfere with officials, soldiers. or
citizens in the performance of what
they regard as their patriotic duty"

tangible evidence of dropping Ger

"We saw German prisoners here

Twenty or 30 others wore very thin

Today strollers crowded the Alex

Kremlin, Gorky street-Moscow's
Fifth avenue-and the Arbat square
on the city's west side. Handsome
cavalrymen wearing tall fur hats
and blue capes, their sabers gleam-

colorful shawls and furs. There
must have been couple of hun
dred thousand children playing in
the streets.
In the annex of the damaged
Bolshoi Theater was a matinee per-
formance of Rimsky- Korsakov's
ballet, 1.-THE Hunched Back Horse"
The Byzantine turrets of the
Kremlin and the modern structures
of Gorky street are standing un-
scathed. Subways, streetcars and
buses are still operating. Lights,
water, gas and other public services
are still functioning. Merchants are
busy.
Bad weather has prevented the
Germans from making many air
raids recently, but they attempted
one last night. The government and
Communist party newspapers lives

public not to consider the danger
entirely passed.
