This is the text of the German
note handed today in Berlin to the
United States Charge dAffaires by
Foreign Minister Ribbentrop and re-
leased here by the State Depart
ment.
Mr.. Charge d'Affaires:
The Government of the United
States, having violated in the most
fragrant manner and in ever-in-
creasing measure all rules of neu-
trality, in favor of the adversaries of
Germany, and having continually
been guilty Of the most severe pro-
vocations toward Germany ever
since the outbreak of the European
war, provoked by the British dec
laration Of war against Germany on
September 3, 1899, has finally re-
sorted to open military acts Of ag-
gression.
On September II. 1941, the Presi-
dent OF the United States publicly
declared that he had ordered the
American Navy and air force to
shoot on sight at any German war
vessel. In his speech of October
27. 1941, he once more expressly
affirmed that this order was in
force. Acting under this order, YES
sells of the American Navy since
early September. 1941, have sys-
tematically attacked German naval
forces. Thus, American destroyers,
as for instance the Greer, the
Kearny and the Reuben James,

Text of German Note
Declaration of War Handed to
U. 5. Charge d'Affoires in Berlin

have opened fire on German sub
marines according to the plan. The
Secretary of the American Navy
Mr.. Knox, himself confirmed that
American destroyers attacked Ger
man submarines.
Furthermore, the naval forces of
the United States, under orders OF
their Government and contrary to
international law, have treated and
seized German merchant vessels on
the high seas as enemy ships.
The German government there
fore establishes the following facts
Although Germany on her part
has sttictly adhered to the rules OF
international law in her relations
with the United States during every
period of the present war the Gov
eminent Of the United States, from
initial violations of neutrality, has
finally proceeded to open acts of war
against Germany. The Government
of the United States has thereby
virtually created state of war.
The German government, con-
sequently, discontinues diplomatic
relations with the United States of
America and declares that under
those circumstances, brought about
by President Roosevelt, Germany,
too, as from today. considers her
self as being in a state of war with
the United States of America.
Accept, Mr.. Charge d'Affaires, the
expression Of my high considera-
ton.

Beef Powder Tested
By Australians

Beef reduced to concentrated
powder is standing severe tests in
Australia, where it was invented.
j. B. Cramsie. former chairman of
the Australian Meat Council, said
in Sydney it may be the answer to
Britains meat shortage.
Beef powder does not need refrig-
GRAFTON and would only take a frac-
ton of the cargo space which its
own food equivalent in carcass meat
would occupy.
In one test a can OF powdered
meat 6 years old was in perfect

The Years Best Dog Story

PRINCE is a registered Pointer
- dog owned by Albert Moore,
! of Fairfield. Maine Winter
was almost over when he and a
dog pal raced out on the ice coated
Kennebec River and crossed to
within so feet of the opposite
shore. Suddenly the thin ice
broke and both animals went
tumbling into the swift and
treacherous river.
Frantically they tried with
swift-paddling forepaws to climb
up the insecure edge Of ice but it
gave away again and again For
more than 20 minutes they strug-
gled growing weaker.
A crowd soon gathered on the
shore. And someone called the
firemen One of them tried to
cross the ice but he broke
through and was hauled out with
difficulty. other firemen were
laying ladders across the rotten
ice when two dark furry bodies
dashed out from nowhere.
It was a rescuing party of two
other dogs who instinctively
sensed the plight Of their canine
friends. They seized each strug-
Cling animal by the back of the
neck and actually towed them to
shore. One dog victim and his
rescuer made off like lightning
before anyone could learn who
owned them.
But the Pointer was so chilled
and weakened that he lay eX-
hausted on the snow covered
bank. And the dog that had
dragged him there did not desert
him. With more than ordinary
human intelligence he nosed and
licked him until the Pointers
circulation was restored and he

Bowed Himself
Into Prison

HOLLYWOOD recently help
ed indirectly to capture an
q ! escaped German prisoner
of war in England. The fugitive
betrayed himself to a jealous
film fan when he forgot himself
and followed the mannerism OF a
German soldier.
Wearing gray flannel trousers,
sports jacket, and a checked cap,
the escaped man boarded a bus
travelling from Sheffield to Gains
borough and asked the conductor
for a return ticket. When he re-
ceived the ticket he so far forgot
himself as to click his heels and
bow. as so many Hollywood films
have depicted the typical uni
formed German as doing
Conductor Colin Spittle, an
ardent film fan, already had been
warned that an escaped German
prisoner was at large SO he inn
mediately recognized the tell-tale
mannerism and at the next stop
informed his driver.
Spittle took no action until his
driver pulled up alongside a po-
liceman Then the alert conductor
jumped out, told the officer ano
the man was arrested. He was
the escaped prisoner. Il knew the
