MUST OFFER
FREE WORLD
TO win war
By SCOTT NEARING

People do not yet know much about
the war that is ravaging the world.
They hear plenty of details but fail
to grasp their meaning.
The book, Design for Power (Alfred
Knopf, New York, $3.50, is an ex-
PLANTATION and Interpretation of World
War IT, The maps which illustrate
the book have been moderately well
drawn by George D. Brodsky. Prof.
F. L. Schuman of William College
writes the narrative in his usual racy
and pungent style. Although he does
he has sprinkled them generously
through the text.
The authors have tried to popular
lie the political history of the past
decade and bring 1t up to mid-Decem-
Der 1941. They devote particular at
tention to two of the most misunder-
stood episodes of the 1930's-the
Spanish civil war and the Munich con-
ference. They also attempt to ex-
plain the role of the Soviet Union in
world affairs.
Although Schuman has recently as
ISOLATED himself with the Federal
Union program for the British-Amer-
lean world domination, his biting an
alysis Of British diplomacy will put
his readers on guard against trusting
British diplomats farther than one can
see them. He scathingly denounces
the political trickery of John Simon,
Samuel Hoare and Viscount Halifax,
who cannot see beyond England, nor
in England can they transcend the in
terests of the governing classes. . :.

FARMERS FACE
ACUTE STORAGE
PROBLEM
Storage Requirements To
Care for 10000, OOO-B ushel
Crop Is Indicated by Present
Conditions; Farm Storage
Suggested.

! One of the most acute grain storage
problems in the history of the state
will face Montana farmers if the 1915
crop materializes as indicated, Albert
H. Kruse state commissioner of agri
culture, said.
Mr.. Kruse conferred recently at
Minneapolis with representatives OF
other grain states on the problems
of transporting and warehousing the
1912 crop at a meeting called by the
U. S. department of agriculture.
"Available statistics on storage
space and the present condition of the
1912 crop indicate that space will
have to be made available in Montana
for 100000 bushels this year, either
by new construction or emptying of
present storage units before harvest.
GAS the possibility of moving much
of the wheat now in storage is not
bright and terminal elevators are al
most full, it would seem that the only
answer to the problem is new con-
struction. This is especially true
since Montana elevators have very
little empty storage space available"
These suggestions for use and stor-
age of the 1912 crop were listed by
Mr.. Kruse:
1. Building more storage space on
the farms. Steel for nails has been
made available for erection Of frame
granaries and lumber still is obtain
able.
2. Feeding more grain to livestock.
Federal quotas of meat and wool pro-
duction can be met more easily If

Small Business To Benefit
From Patent Seizures

Small Business To Benefit
From Patent Seizures
Little as we'll as big business vii
receive benefits from patents seized
by his office, Alien Property Custo
dian Leo T. Crowley told this column
Plan is to charge very nominal
royalty for their use, the money thus
derived going into fund to be used
for carrying on further research work
on the patents.
At this writing, all synthetic rub
Der, manganese, and pharmaceutical
patents have already been seized, as
vel las many chemical patents. The
office is moving fast since the Presi,
dent directed it to seize all patents
controlled either directly or indirectly
by the enemy. The number will run
into the thousands-an they will not
be returned when the war is over as
they were after World War I.
AS the sordid story of financial brig
andage is being unfolded here, it is
obvious that the patent racket con-
stituted the base for the formation
of giant international cartels which
played most of the world for suckers
most of the world except the nazis
Through the German l. G. Farbenin-
dustrie, the nazis were able to strike
deals under which they secured maxi
mum production of war materials for
Nazi Germany, while restricting pro-
duction of these same materials for
their potential democratic enemies.
Hitler must have derived more than
one chuckle out of it, He got free
use of the patents of the other coun-
tries, while withholding free use of
German patents to these same coun-
tries.
He had no trouble striking favor
able deals with American Big Bust
ness. This was just down their alley.
They viewed it as GOOD BUSINESS
to restrict production here, because
through limited production they were
able to get unlimited profits.
And now the American people are

emagnesium in this country, a
metal superior to aluminium in
the manufacture of airplanes
and invaluable for incendiary
bombs, star shells and other
war purposes.
According to Arnold:
The actual damage to the nations
war effort, resulting from the arrange
ment, was 'incalculable" and, in an
effort to remedy the shortage, the
government has had to pay out mill
lions of dollars for magnesium plants.
1t operated chiefly to keep Amer
lean production of magnesium down
and the price high so that the metal
would not compete with the American
aluminium monopoly of the Alumni
mum Co. of America, one of the cartel
members.
Up to a month ago the cartel was
still refusing to license manufacture
of magnesium In this country by nom
member firms although the govern
ment desperately needs magnesium
for war purposes.
American members of the cartel
agreed not to increase their produc-
ton above 100000 pounds a year
without Germany's consent although
the basic patents were American and
not German.
They also agreed to limit their ship
ments to England to 100000 pounds

Harlem Yankees, Original Celtics
 At Hartford, Wed.

Hartford, Dec. 1.-Two crack New York basketball quintets whc have made their mark in pro ball will be brought to the Hartford Auditorium for another in series of court extravaganzas Wednesday night. The Original Celtics, who dropped close one by five points to the famed New York Renaissance here last week, return to play the Harlem Yankees.
 In the opener at 7:30 the Bradley Field Flyers of the Windsor Locks Air Base play the Wethersfield Eagles, whose roster is composed of former Bulkeley High and Weth- ersfield high stars.
 The Harlem Yankees, though not protesting to be as showy or fancy as the Rens, nevertheless have a strong team that is capable of com- peting with the topnotchers in the pro division of the game.
 Skyscrapers
 They feature a six-foot-six cen- ter in Carl Smith of Xavier U. And a GA pivot man in John Wilson, Clark U athlete. With Captain Benny Garrett a 6-1 guard, and Frank Caffey of Maine U. who is another six-footer. Ed Disney, e.. short of that height, was a m1.A- Der of Dewitt Clinton highs New York champions of two seasons ago. But there aretwo other stars on the club who make up for lack of stature in all-around ability that has earned for them the plaudiGs of crowds everywhere. Deadeye Lou Badger, whose speed and clevernss keeps him among the al ltime Negro greats, and Tea" Collier, picked on an all-Negro quintet, are both 5-6.
 The Celtics will have their stellar Pete Caruso, who scored l6 points against the Rens in a beautiful ex- hibition of set shooting here, Roy Leening, all-around floor general Art Murphy, who got 12 points against the Negro champs, Carl Maleftano, Jimmy Buckley, Frankie Stapleton and others, all former collegians.

Chicago Bears Scalped
 By 1 To 8 Redskins
Lucl<man Explains" l4.6 Defeat in Four Words "We
 Were Just Lousy; Marshall Surprised

He joined the Navy six weeks ago He got his first leave this week. He was on the bench yesterday. Every thing the Bears are or were, up to yesterday, they owe and owned to Halas.
 V V V
 Too Much Spirit
 Now you wouldn't think it, but a poor team can have spirit. The Bears, strange as it may seem. had too much spirit. They hadn't had their master around for weeks. Two years ago they had beaten the Red- skins, 73-0. Yesterday they wanted to win 173-0, or something life that. Halas, It. Comdr. George Halas of the Navy, getting his first leave, seeing his first football game join- ing up, was sitting on the bench: The Bears got together and said to themselves and said to them selves well show the boss some- thing"
 V V V
 Maybe that's not what beat them. But they frightened all up. They didn't play football. They kicked around. They were made to look bad. They were supposed to have the best line that any fobtall team ever had. The line was cut to shreds. From midway in the second period they were never in the game. Even the illustrious Sid Luckman found himself sitting on his hip pockets most of the afternoon. There was nothing the Bears could do. They couldn't run with the ball and they couldn't pass.
 V V V
 And who gave the best explana- tion? Luckman. We were just lousy" he said. Luckman leaves to. morrow to join up with the Navy. That will give you a faint idea of how hard the Bears were hit; they knocked Luckman right out of the backfield into the Navy.
 V V V
 But as It. Comdr. George Halas said: Well, we did pretty good. We didn't lose from last November and maybe we got a little too cocksure. You know the Yankees lost too, and maybe one of these days Joe Louis will lose, too." We kind of life the commander and all the Bears; they can take an unexpected dish of honor with a polite and sporting burp.

Podoloff Gave Ice
 Folies Good Start Way Back In 1886

New Haven, Dec. l4-One of the pioneers in presenting ice revues-. Nathan Podoloff, general manager of the Arena-has acclaimed Ice Fol lies of l943 as the greatest produc- ton on ice ever made available to the American public"
 Podloff, for years a figurehead in ice show productions, witnessed the Follies at Madison Square Garden last week and stated that the Ship stad brothers, Roy and Eddie. and Oscar Johnson had surpassed all their previous successes with this years edition.
 There's a long story behind the Ice Follies-for 1t was back in 1886 that Nate Podoloff gave the current hit a big lift by playing the revue twice in one year at the Arena when many other rinks couldn't picture a inusi- cal revue on ice. That is why today Ice Follies of 1943 has a warm spot in its heart for New Haven. Oscar Johnson, Eddie Shipstad and Roy Shipstad sksted here many times before coming in with their Follies. Evelyn Chandler, worlds greatest female skater, now out of the show, skated in the old Arena back in 1924 between periods of Yale Harvard hockey games. It was Podoloff who suggested to Shipstad and Johnson that they combine number ol acts and present an ice revue.
 Started in 1886
 Since those dark days backin '36 many cities throughout the country nave become ice.minded. But, take Shipstad and Johnson aside and they'll tell you all about the old days at the Arena when Podoloff saw the possibilities of an ice show making good from coast to coast-despite the fact that at that time the Fol- lies travelled by bus and had one trunk.
 Ice Follies of 1943 will open at the Arena on Monday night. Feb- ruary 1, and run through Sunday night, Feb. T, with matinees on Sat- lrday and Sunday. Thus, Ice Follies of 1943 comes back to the site where Ice Follies actually had its birth.
