My Dear Mr.. Hearst:
I FEEL that there are no words
i to express my gratitude for the
tremendous service that you have
rendered the =ANTI-vTvISEC-
TION cause--which you so coura-
geously did In that heart appealing
and thought provoking editorial of
February 2Oth-on "Laddie."
There are few men In your po-
sition who dare to tell the truth
about vivisection and who will
openly oppose this vicious and i'm
moral practise. What 1t is they
fear, 1 know not--unless II be the
wrath of the American Medical
Association, etc.-but the fact re-
mains that they are MORAL
EDWARDS. Even the American
Humane Association refuses to
support the anti-vivisection move
ment-and one may not speak
openly at any of their conventions
upon the subject of viyisection
without being told that the sub
ject OF vivisectiOn Is "not-in-
order" 1t seems that they are

VICHY. March 10. - France
threatened today to use the still
formidable remnants OF her feet
against the British unless they
halt the seizure of French mer-
chant vessels. particularly food
ships.
The French warning came stimuli
taneously with the arrival at Mar

bearing as gifts from the Ameri-
can people badly needed milk,
vitamins. drugs and clothing for
the starving women and children
of France.
The Cold Harbor is a freighter
of 500 tons and is operated by
the United States maritime COM
mission.
Admiral William d. Leahy, the
United States ambassador. called
the Cold Harbor's arrival a GEES
ture of American sympathy and
friendship for conquered France
and expressed the hope more ship
ments will soon arrive.

not receive from those who would
NOT like to see vivisection ex-
posed for what II is. II is difficult
even to attempt legislation against
vivisection-or for its regulation
with no cooperation whatsoever
from the humane associations. BY
their SILENCE they give II their
BLANKET APPROVAL.
just as your editorial re: the
cruelty to horses in motion pic

has been the direct means Of
making tremendous strides
towards the hating of this cru

DARLAN'S THREAT

Admiral Jean Darlan. the
French vice premier. threatened
10 throw protective screens of war
ships around French merchant
vessels if the British seizures
continue.
At a press conference called by
Marshal Petain and designed to
stress the rapidly growing needs
of France for food. Admiral OAR
Ian explained his challenge to
Britain and this simple statement
1.-THE people of France must
eat"
The whole tone of the conference
was that of condemnation OF the
British blockade. and for the firs'
time in official statements a def
mite note of possible defiance was
struck by Darlan.

ROME, March 10.-Passage of
the lend-lease bill by the American
Senate amounts to the beginning

man for Premier Mussolini, charged
today.
Passage of the bill represents
open intervention In the war
against the Axis" Gayda wrote.
'It amounts to the beginning
of American participation in the
war.
This deliberate, unprovoked
approach of America to war is a
violation of the The Hague con-
vention.
Passage of the bill may re-

ratio In their claims and state
ments.
Consequently II is difficult to
get an honest appraisal of the
whole business.
My own feeling Is that the
whole wretched business Is debas-
ing, brutal and unnecessary, no
matter upon what animals 1t Is
practiced, and that the nation
which will tolerate it Is guilty as
hell no matter from what source
that tolerance springs-sadism or
"sapism." and that any cruel fate
which befalls such nation Is
richly deserved.
More power to yOu--and II you
have any suggestions they will be
gratefully received.

Dear Mr.. Hearst:
I READ your article In your col

in which you expressed your alb
horrence of the practice of vivi-
section on helpless animals.
heartily concur with you and I be-
lieve l express the sentiments OF
every humane person in the cOun-
try. Many medical writers are OF
the opinion that the knowledge
gained from these CHASTITY expert
ments are infinitesimal although
the brutal vivisectors will howl to
high heaven that the contrary Is
true.
am glad these poor, helpless
creatures have such a powerful
pretagenist as yourself and one
who is not ashamed to use the col
umns of your widely read papers
in such a noble cause. I also APP
preciated greatly your thoughtful
articles on the brutalities involved
in the making of moving pictures.

pressed similar sentiments in his

through you. my thanks to him.

debacle since the Greco-Italian war

Reports from the battlefront
told of continued Greek advances

Among those reported killed was
Giuseppe Bottai, Fascist minister

ordered to observe special mourn
ing for the death on the battlefield
of "one of fascism's great person

VOUR story of Laddie brought q
i tear to the eye of this usu-
ally indifferent old trolIey-car OPP
orator. At the age of eighteen
also had dog. Keeper was part
fox, part sheep dog. with several
shades OF mongrel thrown In for
good measure. believe he was
enc of the finest examples that
ever lived of the power of telep-
athy.
Keeper usually got his nose
pricked when l hooked a perch,
his face slapped when / caught a
trout, and his coat soiled when he
made up a party of three dogs,
under my direction. which chased
away the prowling fox at night
time. When he was ten months
old I crossed the Atlantic to New
York. and had almost forgotten
my old pal, some five years later,
when l returned unannounced to
visit my parents. But Keeper
never forgot.
Although the wind was blowing
from West to East. my old four
footed pal met me mile East Of
the old homestead and jumped
into the side-car which l hired
eleven miles away to take me
home. Sight or smell could not ex.
plain that extraordinary incident
or hundreds Of other similar Incl.
dents in the life of Keeper. There
are more things in heaven and
