BERLIN, April Fisherman
observers declared tonight that
major military action in Greece
Is finished and that Adolf Hitler's
conquering NaZis now are ready
for neW-but unSpecified-taSkS
Mopping up in both Greece and
vanquished Yugoslavia, these quar-
ters contended, is in the nature OF
'police action" with the LuftWaffe
assigned the chief role of harassing
retreating British and Greek forces
reported by the high command to
have reached the heart of Pelopon-
nesuS.
The Germans admitted that the
terrain of the Peloponnesian penin-
sula lends itself to prolonged re-
sistance by small groups, but said
such opposition, if it develops, would
not occupy much of the German
Arn1y's attention.
No Hint of Next Task.
Nazi spokesmen gave no hint what
the new tasks of the Hitler's armed
forces might be, but said the Medi-
terranean action would continue.
Greece was regarded as just a
phase of a larger plan which is un-
folding.
In the surprise occupation of the
Isthmus of Corinth before yester-
days entry into Athens military
spokesman said German parachute
troops captured 900 British.
TIL parachutists came out of the
sky wholly unexpected, he said, and
occupied military objectives before
the British were aware of their pres
ence.
an some instances German SOL
diers had to go into houses to call
out the British" he asserted.
Reports from Greece indicated
about 100000 tons of British ships
were damaged in the last two weeks
In addition to 287 200 tons reported
destroyed.
British losses in this action will
far exceed those at Dunkerque," a
military commentator said.
No Estimate of British Loss.
There is no estimate of British
loss of life at this time, authorized
circles said.
Action in the heart of the Pelop-
onnesus indicated the British, ap-
parently headed for embarkation
ports on the Greek south coast, had
negotiated half the distance across
the peninsula.
After marching into Athens yes
terday and leaving the Swastika
f1uttering from the Acropolis, the
high command said its forces plung-
ing southwark in pursuit Of the
Allies were proceeding on schedule. "
Today's communique described
these Nazi activities in the Pelopon-
nesuS and in central Greece as
"mopping-up operations.
1000 Tons of Ships Lost.
British shipping losses in the with
drawal from Greece already have
surpassed those suffered at Dun
kerque, German military dispatches
reported.
The 287, 900 tons of British ships
sunk in Greek waters the past II
days, the Germans say. is 25,0OO
tons more than the British lost in
the Dunkerque withdrawal-and
they added that this phase of the
action in the Eastern Mediterranean
was by no means completed.
Gloyd's listed British shipping
losses at Dunkerque at 72 ships
totaling 280,556 tons and Allied

LONDON, April 28.-British mill
tary circles turned anxious attention
today to unconfirmed reports of a
heavy German tourist inf1ltration
in French-mandated Syria.
Concern centered on two poSsibil-
ities-that Syria eventually might be
a jumping off place for an attempted
blitZkrieg across Palestine toward
the Suez or that a Syrian foothoId
might serve as a pincer threat
against Turkey.

Kemper Warns Against
Extended Federal Power
As Annual Meeting Opens

Warning against the gradual ex-
tensions of the power of govern
ment, James S. Kemper, president
of the Chamber of Commerce of the
United States, called American
businessmen to rally to the defense
of free economy"
Il can envision no greater crime,
no more far reaching sabotage
against this republic of free men, -
he declared, opening the 29th annual
meeting of the chamber at its head
quarters here, than the eventual
supremacy of the State. under which
it and not the people would be
supreme"
Throughout the world We have
witnessed the spectacle of the citi-
Zens of democratic nations losing
their rights. On every hand, a vast
amount OF evidence demonstrates
the penalty to the citizen which
follows each increase of power to
the state.
This process has not been con-
fined to Continental Europe. 1t

work. Now they are more important
 than ever because they are organ ized, they meet regularly they know how to work in unison. They should write immediately their local and state defense councils to offer their special abilities.
 Tn whatever field woman de- oides to ready herself for defense she should remember that the efforts of many are worth more than the efforts of one person. She should enlist the interest and aid of every enc she knows-neighbors, relatives, fellow office workers, fellow club members.
 Women, in their leisure hours, even if they are limited, can be the means of binding together the na- tion's home defense program.

such as the food stamp plan, to feed needy families who are living below the minimum health standards. And a third of our nation is living that way.
 Women have a second role as the nations buying agents. As such they can help to keep prices stable. They can watch prices so they will be wise enough to buy comodities which will give them the most dollar value and their families the best protection. They can look into scare campal is such as the buy now before prices go up" warnings.
 Can Utilize SkiIls
 Women with natural skills should develop them. They can take Red Gross courses in nursing and first aid. They can organize to help their city governments clear up sanita- ton problems which might lead to epidemics. They can help theii school boards expand after school recreation which will build strong children. They can study ways of meeting propaganda so they will be ready to calm group hysteria should the need arise.
 Women with mechanical ability can learn to handle tools and ma chimes, just in case they should ever be needed in the nations machine shops. They can take study courses in handling fine precision machines on which women often are more ad- ept than men. They can train for inspection and testing jobs in indus trial processes.
 Women who have natural or train ed technical abilities can ready themselves to help in laboratories, to work in auto shops, radio shops and photography dark rooms. In a genuine national emergency such women would be in urgent demand Women with such skills are as i'm portant now as the stockpiles of manganese and tungsten which the government is buying.

MAN WHO
 GOULD NOT
 BE KILLED
Learned to Grin al Death But IL Has Come Hard
 Way and Some
AP Feature Service

SPRINGFIELD, N. J. - Harry Speicher has learned to grin at death He had to learn the hard way.
 Now 55, survivor of five close brushes with death. he laughs off his experiences. The big stuff just does not seem to kill me, he says
 When he was 13 trolley and a truck collided near his home in Jersey City. Speicher, who had been leaning on 2 fire hydrant, lost three fingers from his right hand and his left was paralyzed for life.
 Experience No. 3 came while he was Panama Canal blasting in- spector He was le ling 35 men through a narrow passage when it seemed that all the noise on earth had been concentrated right around us.' Speicher regained consciousness to find the man j,st behind him had been killed by the shock from an ex- plosicn.
 A short time later. hunting in the tropical interior, he and four native guides contracted black water fever. Two guides died. Speicher's bride was told that his chances of survival were one in thousand. But his luck held.
 Back in this country, he became chief electrician at the former Hu- boken navy yard Thirteen hundred gallons of oil exploded in the hold Of ship, sent a three-ton steel door crashing against Speicher's head. His skull was fractured, but the worst was still in store.
 A few years later, at the yard, a guard rail around the power house had been painted. Speicher touched the rail to see if it was dry A charge of 2,300 volts went through his body.
 That time, physician pronounce cd him dead. Two hours later the eyes of the corpse" were seen to move. His skull had been fractured again, in his fall, and doctors believ- ed some brain cells had been destroy ed by the current. But his faculties gradually returned.
 Now, retired on government pen sion, Speicher spends a quiet life building miniature villages and con- structing figurines. Says he:
 Guess I'll trip over rock in my garden and break my neck-if I don't die of old age first

ton (and a number of officials arc complaining because it is toe slow Federal Office Building No 2. (Federal Office Building No. l hasn't been started.) No 2 is to take care of Navy Department workers, but already they arc planning another building, mil lion-dollar temporary" one, just back of the present structure or Constitution Avenue. This present one, by the way, is a temporary building, built during the World War.
 First wing of the Army's beauti- ful new building will be ready fol occupancy soon, but it will take care only of about 800 workers and that's not drop in the skill let. And already. it is said, the Army has plans drawn for a hug, temporary" building here or il nearby Virginia.
 The Defense Commission is be- ing booted out of the Federal Re serve Building and is scattering all over town. Leon Henderson staff has taken quarters in Rural Electrification's former offices on Massachusetts; Harriet Elliott is now in Paul McNutt's old offices in Public Health Service.
 This sort of listing could go on forever, but perhaps it is worth snickering over that Housing Co., ordinator Charles Palmer h "a $ been moved out of his nice offices and put down in an aging resi- dence. And that it is rumored that the Government is dickering with the District of Columbia to buy the Districts new office building and fill it up with the Defense Commission.
 What is more important is how Nelson A. Rockefeller solved part of his office problem Young Nell son, as you may know, is (take a deep breath) head of the Office for Coordination of Commercial and Cultural Relations Between the American Republics. He looked over his crowded staff, brought a little Rockefeller practicality to bear and said: This part of the work and that part of the work could be done in New York. Why not?" And so he is moving part of his staff to the Big City, not only solving his own space problem but making way for others.

answer to why not?"
 Some of the agencies already mentioned which might locate their headquarters in the field are the Interstate Commerce Com mission, the Railroad Retirement Board, Social Security, the Census Bureau and some of the farm agencies.
 If anything comes of it, Wash ington merchants and landlords will probably set up an awful howl, but you probably won't head that kind of music from sim liar business men in cities that get the agencies dumped in their lap.

DIRKsEN RESOLUTION

This may be the beginning" of a trend-and an important one. It has hardly progressed beyond the talk stage yet, although Rep. Ever cit Dirksen of Illinois has intro duced resolution to set up a House committee to study it. It is decentralization.
 The officials and congressman who are talking it are beginning to ask the same question about a lot of agencies that Rockefeller asked about his own. In lot of cases they can't find any logical

Say

There can be no question Of the ex-
istence Of agonizing conditions in
France. All available information from
Vichy and from Paris tells OF wide
spread hunger. But Admiral Darlan's
resentment Of Britain's blockade should
not blind him to the undeniable fact
that Germany's merciless levies upon
French wheat and livestock are pri-
marily responsible for the shortages
now causing starvation.
BY reason of the occupation OF the
country by Germany, the continued
detention of two millions of French
men as prisoners of war, making many
of them unavailable for agricultural
production, and the laying waste Of
fields during the period of warfare,
the harvest of wheat was reduced
nearly so percent. From this volume
the Germans have requisitioned thou
sands of tons for the needs of their
own army.
But solution Of this problem by re-
Taxation of the English blockade is
out. The blockade Is one of the most
potent weapons against Hitler. A world
desperately for survival
against this scourge would be worse
than foolish to abandon it.-Helena
