WARRENTON, Va, Aug. 29.-More
than 900 entries, representing a star
cast of the Nations equine actors,

the curtain rises on the 42d annual
Warrenton Horse Show, which opens

continues at the same hour on
Labor Day.
Since its inception in 1889, the
Warrenton exhibition has been one
of the bigtime performances of the
country. Second to none in the
quality of its annual cast, 1t long has
been recognized as "the hunter show
OF America" For two days we have
watched the pedigreed hunters from
the East arriving in their private
vans, unload and prepare to meet
the patrician foxchasers of Mary
land and Virginia in a battle for
five coveted hunter championships.
Also among those present we have
noted several top-ranking open
jumpers of this locality and a retinue
of grooms, who are shaping them
for the grueling jumping competition
which will see some one of their
illustrious number receive the tri-
color ribbon which denotes the ar
rival of a new champ.
Great Jumpers Entered.
Leading the stars who will have

open jumping are those celebrated

DOMINION
AppLAUD5
CHURCHILL
Speech, Calm and Confid-
emf, Brings Cheers and
Laughter in Commons

OTTAWA, Dec. 30-In a speech
filled with confidence, British Prime
Minister Winston Churchill today
told the people of Canada the final
phase of the war must be IAN as
sault on the citadel in the home
land of the guilty powers in both
Europe and Asia
Speaking on the radio from the
chamber of the House of Commons,
he declared the final goal of the
allied democratic power is the total
extirpation of Hitler tyranny, Jap
aneSe frenzy and the Mussolini
flop"
Time and again the crowded
chamber burst into a storm of APP
plause, cheering specially as
Churchill called the roll of the
Allies, praising one by one the con-
tributions to the common cause by
the United States, Russia, The
Netherlands, China and the Free
French.
Canadas own contribution he
called magnificent. He told the
Dominion its troops stood in key
positions to defend Britain and said
the enemy's fear of engaging them
might avert frightful battles when
the invasion season" comes again.
The speech was filled with jibes
and tauntS at the Axis partners
and moved the crowded chamber to
cheers and laughter, but most of it
was calm, confident road already
travelled and the road still left to
travel
Three phases remain, the Prime
Minister declared:
ID Consolidation, which will
come when all the Allies might
has been marShalled.
90 Liberation, when the con-
quered territories have been recov-
cred and their people rise in revolt.
90 Assault against the Axis ma
tons in their own homelands.

until the world hears of their actual use IN battle.
The pictures on this page, rushed to America
from England when the military censor per-
mitted, reveal a new British defense heretofore
undreamed-of.
The pictures show the ins-and-outs of con-
crete-and-steel floating fort, not battleship but
an actual fort bobbing cork-ike offshore. 1t is
one of string reported hastily-built to help the
British fleet cope with the threat of German
invasion. Such man-made little bases are placed
not on islands but anchored at sea where stra-
tegists think they'll do the most good.
The fort is a simple thing that lies low on
the water (see top bicture) but extends deep-down
to living quarters and storerooms (see bottom
bictues). 1t is described as invulnerable to any
known bombs or shells. There's no way for
attackers to get close or board it.
The forts biggest gun is a 12-incher (see
picture at rigbf1, which is capable of destroying
any kind of ship afoat. Other weapons are
smaller guns, anti-aircraft guns, machine guns.
The personnel is drawn from army, navy
and artillery The fort is heavily stocked with
ammunition and food for long siege, is serviced
by supply tenders. Because life here is much like
submarine service, the garrison lives several
days aboard, several ashore.

Faith in Sportsmonship
Seen Prompting Hess

BERLIN, May Is (P.-An in
formed German source suggested
today that faith in British sports
manship may have prompted Rudolf
Hess to believe that Britain would
be ready for peace if he could con-
vince her that her cause was lost.
This source recalled a speech by
Hess last February % in which he
was quoted as saying that 1T is
Germariy's wish to ssettle pending
snuestions in the spirit I'm which
youths participate in sports
competition"
Thus, this informant commented,
Hess trusted in the spirit of Eng
lish fairness in sports when he be-
lieved that also in political matfers
it would suffice merely that he ad-
wise the English personally that
their cause was lost to make them
ready for peace"
Informed sources said Adolf Hitler
"for the time being probably will
not address the German public" on
Hess dramatic flight to Scotland.
German newspapers dropped from
their pages today all mention of
Hess flight, but the affair still was
the main topic Of conversation
wherever Germans met.
