Axis is no stronger than its weakest
spoke.
The forward march of the killed
Greek Evzones in Albania appeared
to be slowed down. There were des-
perate counter-attacks by the Ital-
1ans and some towns were retaken.
But the Greeks were certain it was
just momentary halt and the
march north could be resumed.
From Africa, Field Marshal Ro-
dofo GRAHAM reported to the Duce
on why his Egyptian campaign had
been such dismal failure; and why
after making 75-mile advance into
British territory he halted for three
months and then suffered a serious
defeat.
He said he had not received
mechanical equipment from home
which had been promised to him.
Even before the British attacked
and drove him far back into Libya,
he reported, he knew of their plans.
He denied the campaign against him
was a surprise and said that so
many Italians, repeatedly as high as
10000, were lost because they chose
to fight into the last spasm" rath-
er than retreat.
But excuses don't win battles, and
good reason or no, the Libyan forces
had lost all their gains and were
IN a desperate plight to save the
remnants of their army. The Brit
ish indicated that an even more ex-
tensive blow was being aimed and
limited much Of Libya may be in
their hands by spring.
Even the British navy Knocked the
Italians. In broad daylight, with
flags flying and openly inviting at
tack, a squadron of the royal navy
swept through the Straits of Otranto
and into the Adriatic, Mussolini's
private lake. 1t was an open dare
to the Italians to come out and flgbt
but no Fascist man-o'-war appeared
So the British crossed over to Va.
Iona, Albanian port used by Musso-
Gni's forces, and turned their guns
on the harbors. Then they sailed
out into the Mediterranean again.

Eden's battle at Geneva aroused
the enmity of Mussolini and so bitter
was the exchange that Prime Min
lister Neville Chamberlain, then in
the beginning of his appeasement
drive, forced Eden to resign. In
Eden's place came Lord Halifax,
member of the Cliveden set and sup

porter Of appeasement. He laid the
groundwork for the pact of Munich,
where Czechoslovakia was sold down
the river and Hitler gained the idea
all Europe would bow to his whim.
But times change and sometimes
men change too. Lord Halifax
now is described as one of the most
determined men in England in sup
port OF the war effort. The death
OF Lord Lothian, British ambassador
to the United States, gives Lord
Halifax a new task. He steps down
from the foreign ministry, where he
directed ambassadors, to become an
ambassador himself, being assigned
to Washington.
Back into the foreign ministry
in London goes Anthony Eden, who
would take personal as well as pa
triotic delight in knocking out Mus
Solini.
Pierre Laval? He's out of the
French cabinet at this time, but
German influence is seeking to have
him replaced. Until such can be
brought to pass, he will live in

nth CONGRESS:
WashingtOn Gloomy

AS the new congress comes into
being, it meets in a Washington that
is marked by a mood far from OPP
tinism. There is public talk, which
may be nothing more, that Britain
has only 90-day grace period be-
fore Hitler strikes hard-and that
Britain is far from well prepared
and American laid" has fallen
down.
The first job of the new congress
will be to stir the public, industry
and labor out of that lethargy. Ell
forts already have begun in
speeches by Defense Chief William
Knudsen, and Secretaries Stimson
and Hull.
The topic of all is the same: 1t is
much later than you think. They
hope by painting the defense pic
ture in its true colors to convince
workers, employees and the general
public that there must be an inn
mediate about arms production and
all other considerations - labor's
right and profits-must step aside
until the job is done.
Ne,u Board
One step in this direction was ap-
pointment by President Roosevelt Of
q new super-production board on de-
tense. It has been given complete
executive authority-an the consti-
tuition allows, according to the Presi-
dent-to act in the name Of the gov
eminent. The national advisory de-
fAnaA ,s<,t4 k4a
ing on the work up until this time
has been pure that, advisory. It
lacked authority.

Job ahead
The job is monumental. Army
housing is go per cent behind sched-
ule with only 300, 900 soldiers on ac-
tive duty, out of a contemplated
100000. Not single airplane or
dered since congress voted money
last July has been delivered. II
any tanks have been delivered it is
a secret. When it was decided to
build one munitions plant and work
on construction more than 40 hours
a week, that was news"
Most startling of all was the lack
Of realization on the part of too
many that in this war those nations
which sensed their danger too late
have reached their war potentiali-
ties too late-or not at all.

The records have been in the custody of the Su- per!or court, and the state supreme court of errors in Hartford.
 In connection with counsel to be retained by the city for the purpose Of conducting inc case, City Corpora ton Counsel J.

Demagogues! WHO, WHEN, WHAT AND WHERE?
(Co.Authors of The Washington "Mcrry Cd. Round"

Speaker Sam Rayburn had to cali on the dictionary, the Man. uai of Rules and his own sense of humor to cope with this tickliRh parliamentary question: Can q newspaper call 230 House rnGfll- berS demagogueS and get away with 1t?
 The question was posed by vocif. crouD Republican Glare Hoffman Of Michigan, who raised q point of "personal privilege" in connecs ton with . Washington news- paper editorial, branding aS den- agogueS those who voted against the Oyerton bill 10 increase the annual federal contribution to the District of Columbia.
 Hoffman demanded that the newspaper be investigated because Of the reflection" it cast on the 230 House members, including hlmeelf, who voted against the bill. When Rayburn held that Hoffman had not been mentioned Individually and, under House rlileg, was not entitled to personal privilege. the Michigander offered resolution to authorize the in. vcstigation.
 This put Rayburn on e tight spot. If he held that the reSolu- ton was not privileged, he would bc siding with the newspaper. If he held that the resolution wag privileged, and 1t came to the fioor, the House would be placed in the ludicrouS position of voting on whether or not 230 of It's mem. bers were dcmagogucs,
