SECRET SOUTH AMERICAN
 BASES

One clue as to how carefully the Japanese and Nazis prepared for the attack on the U. s. was un- earthed by the Congressional Com mittee which investigated aviation conditions in South America.
 They discovered that six Messer- schmidt planes recently were flown into Colombia by Japanese pilots. The planes and pilots later dis appeared. but it is well known that Colombia is dotted with German "fincas" or plantations, many of them not too far distant from the Panama Canal These plantations are isolated establishments, where no outsider can ascertain exactly what goes on.
 The Congressional Committee also learned that the Japanese had secretly stored 5000 tons of dyna- mite at Medellin,, and that other high explosives were stored by Jap anese fifth eolunlnists.
 Another revealing clue was the report that Japanese. and Nazi agents had established twelve se- crct airbascs in the Colombian jum-

most yen-tempered. good-natured persons in the world. But no one in Washington was more irate than she when the news first broke that Japan had sprung a Hitler double cross on Hawaii during the middle of her husbands appeal to Em- peror Hirohito.
 On the fateful Sunday of the bombardment, Mrs. Roosevelt came into the White House while the President was talking to the Jap ianese Ambassador. She said noth- ing at the time, but her lips tight ened into firm straight line = sure sign that the First Lady's s dander is up.
 Afterward, she told friends.
 Imagine the nerve of that man sitting with my husband in the White House when Japanese bombs were falling on our boys! And when came in he got up and actually bowed and was full of smiles!'

BILL OF RIGHTS DAY

Today marks the 150th anniversary of the date when the first ten amendments were added to our constitution.
 These amendments guaranteed us freedom or religion, press, speech and assembly and right to petition the government for redress of grievances
 Right more concerned than ever before about these sacred rights which our American constitution guarantees During the past several years have heard from many sources that these rights were being ferrited away from us. The com plaints have come from enemies of the adminstra- tion-political enemies who declared the Roosevelt regime was attempting to set itself up dictator ship
 But the game of politics, which has been great American pastne must now take backseat as we face something much more real in the threat Of dictatorship than mere campaign charges.

No-AppEAsEK IcKEs

The one member of the Cabinet who had a consistently 100 per- cent, though sometimes unpopular, batting record regarding Japan was the toe-stepping, hit -'em- harder Secretary of the Interior Harold
 No one outside the Cabinet ever knew just how many, tough fights Ickes had with Secretary of State Hull over appeasing Japan. For a time it got so that Hull would not speak to him.
 Ickes argued way back in 1887, when Japan first invaded China, that the United States should CO., operate with Britain in shutting off Japan's oil and the raw ma- terials of war. And he kept plug ging this theme and getting into the hair of the State Department with unremitting zeal ever since.
 He brought the matter up again Tn 1858 when the Japanese sank the U. s. gunboat Panay, obviously a test by the war lords to see whether the United States would take it lying down.
 Then, in 194o, Ickes joined with Morgenthau, Stfmson and Knox in trying to persuade the President to embargo all oil, gasoline and scrap iron. Once again Secretary Hull opposed, and persuaded the President to delay the oil embargo until almost year later, by which time Japan had built up a years reserve of oil-which she has to- day.

 Certainly the Pacific theater is the most developed and offers the most potential possibilities development of any section of this world of All of which makes us consider the wisdom of Stewards remark and points unerring finger at the necessity of democratic victory in the Pacific, that this great region may be developed with eye to furtherng humanity, not lowing to the aims of graspng despotsm

HOROSCOPE "The stdrs incline
 but do not cOmpeW
TUESDAY. DECEMBER 16

TUESDAY, DECEMBER 16
 Conflicting planetary aspects are discerned for today. Although good news may be expected in the Tuesday newspapers, labor will pre- sent a serious situation. Again many wrong ideas will be dissem- mated.
 HEART AND HOME: This is not an important date for women who should use their business or social advantages for the future. It is a day to lay foundations for work and play in l942, when there will be so many changes in human re- lations that. it is imperative to use foresight now. This is not a favor able sway for first meetings with persons of opposite sex, but there is a promising sign for the pursuit of new friendships or romances. Care should be taken to avoid ac- cidents in winter sports. There is an ill omen for this date.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS Money lending will be greatly restricted in the new year. Business expansion willt appear desirable, but risks should be avoided. Government borrowing will be curtailed as banks adjust financial plans for the most exacting year in all history. Pros perity will be enjoyed, but infla- tion appears inevitable. Miracles will be performed in defense pro duction, but even more miracles will be required in coming months.
 NATIONAL ISSUES: Censorship of news will be necessary. Wis e secrecy regarding many govern ment matters will be imperative, but critics will talk about abridge- ment of freedom of the press. It will be discovered that even small items may become pointers to the enemy. Newspapers and the radio Will concur WlUn the pOlnt Ol VleW in Washington and will cooperate effectively. There is sign presag- ing a news leak in one of the de- partments in the national capital which must be traced, the seers forecast.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of a year of ups and downs. Military affairs will disturb many Strangers should be accepted cautiously.
 Children born on this day prob ably will be talented and able to succeed. They may be nervous and highstrung and should be carefully reared.

AMERICA FIRST

A fair analogy can be. drawn between the gentlemen of the State Department and the America First Committee which is now disband- ing. Both were sincere, and defin- itely felt that the best way to treat the dictators was to give them more room. to expand, Once Japan had taken part of China, they felt, she would be. satisfied; and once Hitler had taken Austria and the he also would be sat- isfied
 Apparently they had their heads too far in the clouds or did not human nature suffici- ently to realize that the thirst of a dictator never is quenehed. It was this blind policy which opened the nation to attack when it's guard was down.

WAR CIEAFF

1t was significant that Japan struck first not at the Philippines, which is armed to the teeth with heavy bombers, but at Hawaii Ha- waii had sent it's best war planes on to the Philippines If the Navy had read the newspapers it might have been better prepared last Sunday. Constantine Brown, foreign affairs expert of the Wash ington Star, predicted war with Japan ten days in advance and named Sunday, December T, as the starting date
 Current sight is always easier than foresight but looking back wards it might have been better not to have arrested all those Ger man spies. J. Edgar Hoover was running a radio station for them, though they didn't know it, and had possession of the secret Nazi NOSASs kJOooCoolOil Ol biidC code might have revealed the hook up between Hitler and the Jap anese war lords and the plans for attack However. the Justice De- partment wanted to show that Dies was not the only one who was chasing spies and overfuled Hoo ver's arguments for continuing to watch the spies but not arrest them
 Incidentally, both Hoover and Dies apprehended several Japanese agents on the West Coast, together with reams of documents showing their espionage activities. In one case, the State Department forced Hoover to turn loose even though an American confederate was con- victed In the case of Dies the State Department requested him not to publish his sensational ma- terial

Meanwhile, the State Department got so sore at Ickes that they &C., tually started bureau of their own regarding the islands of the Caribbean, competing with Ickes' division of Territories and Insular Affairs. In fact, the State Depart ment almost hired as chief of this division the Governor of the Virgin Islands whom Ickes had fired.

of flying 5000 miles, which is across the Pacific and half way back again. Thus it was easy for Japanese bombers to fly from their mandated islands to Hawaii. But apparently someone, some place, failed to give the Japanese credit for having just as good bombers as ours, plus the ability to use them.

tify U. s. naval stations in the Pa cific to watch out for them.
 In 1882, for instance, during the Japanese invasion of Manchuria. the Japanese fleet left mysterious ly, and for several weeks the U. 5. Fleet was on the alert trying to figure out it's destination.
 In recent years, however, both intelligence services have been un- der the command of drawing room experts. General Sherman Miles, in charge of Military Intelligence, IS charming gentleman who has surrounded himself with wealthy young blue -bloods. Only members Of the best families can qualify for Military Intelligence, and how much they know about the life around a Japanese waterfront is question able.
 Similarly, Naval Intelligence has been in charge of two delightful gentlemen, Captain Alan Kirk and now Captain Ted Wilkinson. Both have their names listed in the So- cial Register, the blue-blood list of Washington selected socialites. Wilkinson has a large mansion across the Potomac in Virginia. and there he entertainS in the very best manner, but when it came to dock ing the US.S. Mississippi in New York it took him six and a half hours.
 Captains Kirk and Wilkinson are great assets at dinner parties, and apparently want all their young men to be likewise, for no man can get into Naval Intelligence un- less both grandfathers and grand mothers were born in the US.A Not even Wendell Willkie could qualify.
 Obviously it is the man who can speak a few languages, is not afraid to get his hands dirty in close contact with life, and who is not too particular regarding the percentage of blue blood in his veins, who should be able to bring in shipping information.
