Weather Improved,
Donets Drive On
Again Say Germans

BERLIN, Nov. 18 up - The
German high command reported to-
day that operations in Russia's
vital Donets industrial basin are
now going forward with the benefit
of improved weather conditions.
The high command Indicated that
DonetS operations had been Su-
spended or mpeded for period
due to bad weather.
On the Crimea front, said the
communique German level and
Stuka bombers carried out heavy
attacks against the harbor CT Sc
vastopol Russian Black Sea naval
base.
One large freighter was report
ed sunk and one Russian destroyer
and one merchant ship damaged.
POSITIONS TAKEN
In the Donets region, said the
high command, the enemy was
routed from "stubbornly defended
field positions. Additional indus
trial areas were occupied, the high
command said, and several trains
ready for departure were capturec
in a surprise attack.
/. In the far north, said the higl'
command, German bombers attack
ed Soviet barracks, in the Kanda-
laksha Bay area. Night air attacks
were carried out against Moscow
Leningrad and Russian air fields i,
the Vologda district.

legal, and consequently cannot be
considered as binding on the French

Former Colony Split.
The former German colony of
Togoland was split between France
and Britain after its unconditional
surrender during the World War
The French obtained about two
thirds of the territory located be-
tween the British Gold Coast colony
on the west and French Dahomey
on the east.
The German colony of CAMERON
CKamerun) was occupied by British
and French troops in 1916 and later
split between British Nigeria to the
west and French territory to the
east. This former German territory
and all French Equatorial Africa
now is under Free French" direc-
ton.
The size of the Free French"
forces in the area is military
secret, but 1t is known that Gen de
Gaulle Is operating several large
training camps and steadily aug
menting his ranks.
France Still Held Belligerent.
Contending that the Vichy gov
ernment by the armistice, had
placed itself in a position which
deprives it of all independence with
regards to the invader" the De
Gaullists in a statement said:
France cannot and must not be
held responsible for the acts sup
posedly permitted in her name by
the rulers who have usurped power
and who of their own accord have
subjected themselves to the enemy
thanks to the military defeat suf-
fered by her armies when fighting
for the common salvation of the
nations"
Since France is continuing the
war by means of all her military
forces and territories outside of the
enemy's control, De Gaulle said. it
should still be considered a bellig-
erent nation by all states and as
an ally by those fighting "our COM
mon enemies"

A successful parachute landing

to clear air fields for such troops.
The Greek government of King
George II fed to Crete last month
before the Germans entered Athens.
The island is about IS miles off
the southern tip of Greece and has
been strongly fortified by the Brit
ish, who have established their main
base at Suda Bay.
The first real test of parachute
troops came in the German inva-
sion of Norway April 9, 1910, and
a month later they were used in
force in the Low Countries for deep
thrusts to paralyze communications
behind the lines and to seize air
bases for subsequent air-borne
troops.
They also were used in taking the

Naturally our old dictum still OBJ

The Berlin -the-street has
expected just such an attack while
those who follow Adolf Hitler's
strategic methods closely point out
that the continued bombardments
of Crete for days would almost
inevitably be followed by an at
tempt to capture the island.
Observers said Crete looked like
"a natural" for air-borne invasion.

TUCSON, Ariz., May 20.-It re-
quired a -toting posse, directed
from the air by flying United
States marshal, to vanquish de-
flant, 90-year-old Pia Machita,
Papago Indian chief, whose life
long resistance to the United States
Government was climaxed when he
ordered his young braves to ignore
selective service registration.
Pia Machita and 10 of his fol-
lowers were in Federal Jail today
charged with assault on a deputy
marshal who was mauled when he
went into the Southern Arlzena
Papago reservation to arrest the
recalcitrant Indians october 16.
A 17-man posse, making its third
trip after Pia Machita, approached
his village by automobile and horse
back at dawn yesterday. guided by
Marshal Ben j. Mckinney from an
airplane.

Wouldn't Recognize Purchase.
Pia Machita's refusal to permit
tribesmen to register for military
service was another instance of his
long defiance of the white men. He
has steadfastly refused to recognize
the Gadsden purchase of 1853. by
which Southern Arizona was added
to the United States.
In 1885 he rebelled at the Wheel
er-Howard Indian Reorganization
Act and for six months flew the flag
of Mexico over his village. Last year
he chased census enumerators from
the reservation. but finally relented.
Except for Pia Machitas villages,
all of the Papagos registered readily
for the draft, some volunteering for
the Army before their numbers were
called.

Educator Assai|s House
Action Against Dr.. Gruber
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
George B. Cressey of Syracuse
University described as fantastic"
yesterday the Houses action in
specifying that no part of the In
terror Departments appropriation
may be paid to DR.. Ruth Gruber,
author of a book on travel in the
Soviet Union.
DR.. Gruber had been appointed
a department field representative
in Alaska. Representative Taber,
Republican, of New York, who of
fered the amendment forbidding
payment of department funds to
her, said she had expressed Com
munistic philosophy" in her writ
ing.
Mr.. Cressey said the Houses ac-
tion was "an af1ront to a patri-
otic American citizen"
DIR, Gruber has already made
marked contribution to our factual
knowledge of the Soviet Union, and
it is most unfortunate that the Gov
ernment should now be deprived Of
her services" Mr.. Cressey added in
letter to Representative Bulwin-
kle, Democrat, of North Carolina,
who placed it in the Congressional
Record.
Mr.. Cressey went on to say that DR..
Gruber was a scholar of recog-
nized standing" who had made ex-
tensive study Of conditions in Arc
tic Asia, and that ito the best of my
knowledge she has nothing to do
with Communistic propaganda" He
said her book on the Soviet Arctic
was purely travel record"
Cressey has been professor in and
chairman of the universitys depart
ment of geology and geography since
1881. His studies have taken him
at various times to European Rus
STA, Siberia and the Far East.
