Chief Tells Nation

Front, President Ryti
Declares on Radio

By the Associated Press.
HELSINKI, Finland, June 60
President Risto Ryti, broadcasting
to the nation while Russian bombs
rained down on the cities of Fin
land, declared tonight, I'VE shall
fight for the freedom of our coun-
try and for the creed of our fathers. "
Accusing the Russians of a new
and brutal aggression, President
Ryti said that now, at last, Finland
was not alone in her struggle.
Since Germany has gone to war
against the Soviets, he said, Russia
in this task is facing united front
stretching from the White Sea to
the Black Sea"
The President soberly told the
Films:
Citizens, centuries have shown
that on the site on which fate has
placed this nation, permanent peace
cannot be achieved
Confidence in Mannerheim.
THE pressure of the east Is always
upon US. To reduce this pressure,
destroy the eternal menace, and Sc
cure a happy and peaceful life for
coming generations, we now embark
upon our defensive battle. Our con-
fidence in our army and their field
marshal, Baron Mannerheim, is alb
solute."
Ryti made no mention of a decla-
ration of war, but he made clear
that Finland intends to defend her.
self to the last breath.
Reviewing the situation created by
the German war against Russia, he
said that the Soviet air force has
carried out air raids on our coun-
try, killing aged people, women and
children and destroying the valuable
property of our citizens
He accused the Soviet government
of numerous interventions and in
references" with the internal life
of Finland since the Russian Fin
nish peace was signed.
Tried to Fulfill Treaty.
ne declared I1ldJ Ine rims ndQ
tried to fulfill terms of the peace
treaty, but again We had to ex-
perience that there is no relying on
word given by the Soviet govern
ment."
Russia, he said had tried to take
Finland, "either by decomposition
or force" but both methods had
failed.

Navy Employees Pay
10c Fees to Swear
Loyalty to u. 5.

1t costs a full dime for a Navy
Department employe to prove
to Uncle Sam that he is loyal
and not a member of a subver-
sive group.
In the old days Navy en-
ployes went to department
notaries when they wanted
anything notarized, and got 1t
done free. But the new appro-
priation act that required
swearing loyalty before getting
a pay check overworked the
Navy notaries, and outsiders
had to be brought in. So the old
employees, and the new ones
coming on daily, are sent to the
visiting notaries in groups, and
get a rate that is cut from Is
cents to lU.
