NazIs Arrest ChIIeans

Berlin, Sept. 18-tUP)-Author' ized German quarters said today that e number of Chilean residents in Germany had been arrested.
 The arrests were in reprisal fol the arrest of Germans In Chile, au' thorized quarters said.
 (At least 27 alleged Nazis were arrested in 6 roundup in 10 centra and southern Chilean cities directed by Judge Humberto Mewes Of the Valdivia appeals court. In a raid or e German church at Osorno, police said they found documents showine that the Landesgruppe, 6 so-called German sports society, was organ ized on military lines, divided Into groups of storm.troopers).
 Authorized German quarters said that in view of the attitude of some South American countries regarding Germany i've are compelled to keer watchful eyes on the. nationals oi those countries in Germany"
 "As a result of that some Ch!leans have been arrested no suspicion ot acaions hostile to Germany" 1t was said.
 we naturally regret that we are compelled to take such action but we must not forget that this Is war time and we must remove all sub- versive elements"
 It was not stated how many Chil- cans were arrested.
 Authorized quarters said that the arrest of Germans in Chile was caused "by some agitators working with forgeries of all kinds, which already have been seen in other Latin American countries"
 "They are playing a frivolous game when they start talking fifth column" it was said. "One recalls what happened kn Iran when 1t be- gan to be mentioned there."

aerial attack" 1t was said.
 Winter May Be HeIp

The Germans had made some progress in determined drive in the MurmanSk Arctic region, in- formants said, but winter weather should permit the Russians to hold out.
 Military quarters here awaited specific news of the situation of the Russian Ukrainian army In the Kiev sector, as well as in the extreme south, after reports of a partial withdrawal from Kiev.
 These reports said Budenny would leave holding forhce at Kiev to light to the finish and had started a series of strong counter-attacks against bridgeheads the Germans had established on the east side ot the Dnieper, in an attempt to stop the southern arm of the pincers drive.
 It was indicated that the Ger mans were now attacking with everything they had and military experts here looked for combined land, sea and air attack on the Crimea soon, with the Germans use ing ships based in Rumanian and Bulgarian ports.
 Reports Indefinite
 Reports of the progress of the German drive were indefinite, but there seemed reason to believe the two pincers arms, under Field Mar shal Karl Rulodf Gerd von Rurld- stedt on the south and Field Mar shal Tedor von Book on the north, would meet son east of Kiev If they had not done 50 already.
 The Germans, assuming that they succeeded in completely encirclinG Kiev, were expected to continue eastward toward Kharkov, posting siege forces to isolate Kiev. The Russian Black sea fleet was reported ready to help fight off any German attack on the Crimea by sea.
 It was disclosed that British planes sent to Russia already were in action against the Germans.
 The British planes were under stood to be operating in the Uk' raine, aiding the Russian planes ir fighting of German aerial attacks and in patroling the coast.

COLLEGE HEAD
GIVES WARNING
PRES. JOHN H. SHERMAN
DESCRIBES HOW FASCIST
MIGHT SEIZE POWER
BY DR.. JOHN II. SHERMAN
President of Weber College


BABSON PARK, Fla, Jan. 10
How to become dictator of the
United States in one easy lesson:
Buy an hour every Sunday aft
ernoon on all radio stations for the
next few years or as long as you
expect to live and keep the job.
To do this it will be necessary for
you to have been born rich, mar
ried rich, gotten rich or talked
rich man into being your angel.
Part of the hour will be devoted
to music and the rest to promises.
The music should be patriotic and
emotional. The promises should
contain what the people want.
! Promise a better distribution
system. Tell the farmers they
will get five cents quart for their
milk. Tell consumers the milk
will be sold to them at half its
present price. Promise higher
priced wheat and lower priced
bread. Promise higher wages,
lower taxes and higher profits for
stockholders. Say that better dis
! tribution will make these things
possible. Since distribution is our
least understood problem, it Of
fers the best point of attack for a
would-be dictator.
Never explain anything fully.
Deal out extreme, positive state
ments. Tell the people what you
will do for them, but never tell
them how. A big advantage of
radio is that You cannot be
heckled. You do not have to an
swer questions.
If you have a good voice, talk
for yourself If not, hire someone
to impersonate you.
You can't become dictator by
becoming president first because
then your promises would come
bouncing back at you before you
were in position to tell everyone
to keep their mouths shut. You
merely set the stage and then
hire an expert from Latin Amer
lea or Europe to arrange the actual
mechanics of your coup d'etat.
Try to find one you can trust.
Do not be discouraged by the
failure of Father Coughlin to
make an overwhelming success.

He has done very well consider
ing his handicaps. Remember
that two-thirds or three-quarters
of the people were prejudiced
against him from the start on reli-
gious grounds. Furthermore, a
high percentage of his fellow
churchmen think of him as a
priest who is acting improperly.
He lacks political sense and can
not remember today what he said
yesterday.
The only thing that can stop
you will be an equal blast of coun-
ter propaganda. You'll be off to
a good start before anyone guesses
what you are trying to do And
then, who will be willing to spend
a lot of money on answers?
The defenders of democracy
might beat you by learning more
about democracy and why they
want it and then outtalking you.
But you can feel reasonably GER
tain that they will keep right on
sleeping.

ON THE KEYS
By THOMAS r. WINCATE

I'm down in Florida on the Keys,
Feeling the touch of the balmy
breeze,
Going out swimming and fishing,

Doing the things l like to do.
Sleeping beneath the moon at
night,
Under the stars that shine so
bright,
Having a jolly good old time
Away down here in this southern

PENETRATOR PENS

The nurse who takes care of
both of them comes out and
leads the old man back into the
house. AS he stumbles away
with the nurse you hear him say,
"Oh, God, let her diel"
The fourth property has been
changed quite recently. There
was a rather fine old two-story
house there-until fire burnt it to
the ground. There were loud ap-
peals about saving the house,
but even the fire department
couldn't do that. But this house
had insurance on it, so with the
insurance a new house was start
ed, a bigger, finer house, this was
to be.
However, after the rafters were
up and the siding about to be put
on the neighbors gaped at what
they saw. This was only half a
house. Two-story, true, slant
ing roof, larger by far than the
other one, but still only half a
house. Instead of building first
floor and adding second, story
later, or building a small house
to which an ell could be added,
this house is cut in two perpen-
dicularly, from the ridge to the
ground.
About all the comment one
heard in the neighborhood was,
1T looks like glorified chicken
house.
Next to the half-house stands
the charred remains of another
house that caught fire from the
house that burned to the ground.
The fire department determined
to save this second house as long
as they had arrived too late to
save the first one. But the near
est hydrant was five blocks away
and they hadn't that much hose,
One of the apparatus was sent 10
another station TO get more hose
II struck light pole on the way
back and wrecked a front wheel.
Everybody watched the house
burn. Suddenly the wind shifted
and about half the house did not
burn but the inside was Quilted
and most of the furniture burned
There was no insurance on this
house and the people went away
and have never been seen in the
neighborhood since. Only a char.
red house remains,
