DRUGGISTS FACE. DIFFICULT TASK
OPA Expert Admits Listing of Ceiling Prices Big
 Problem

An honest effort" to post con- plete lists of ceiling prices as quickly as possible must be made, members of the Waterbury Druggists Associa- tion were told last night by Wilbur Davidson, drug specialist with the Hartford office of the OPA. With the average druggist having to list hundreds of items, he said, inspec- tors will realize the difficulty and will show leniency if they believe that the druggist is doing his best to comply with the law.
 About 150 druggists from Water bury and nearby towns met at the Silver Chalet to hear MT. Davidson speak. Seated at the head table were Frank Cuba, president of the association; William J. Dunphy, chairman of the fair trade con- mittee, and members of the fair trade committees.
 MT. Davidson said that the fair trade committee will be called on for assistance in seeing that the price regulations are strictly observ- ed. Deliberate violations, he said, will be punished.
 The OPA expert acknowledged that druggists have a huge task in listing hte prices for the wide va riety of items which they sell. Nevertheless, he said, like all other retailers they must give 100 per cent compliance to the OPA regu- lationS.

Rev. F. DOnneIIy desire (that the Russian people have not that gov ernment could be easily proved she says that, "I do not wish to be controlled in this country by an American group that, in turn, is controlled by Russia and Russia's interests.
 Adding to this rebuff that of Elmer Davis the new director of the Office of War Information in which he well stated that, By law you can't have a Communist and as matter of policy you don't want fellow traveller" in the department he heads, and adding to both the of- fical statement of Attorney General Riddle: "The Communist Party in the United States has been from the time of its inception in 1919 to the present, an organization that believes in, admires; advocates and teaches the overthrow by force and violence of the government of the United States" and we have the strongest condemnation of commun- ism that has come out of Washing ton in many years.
 REDS RUN WILD
 Today we think this condemnation has great significance. During the past few months the Reds have been running wild in the United States. Because Russia happens to be fight ing our battle they have been talk ing full advantage of our willing support of Russian resistance. Des- pite their wide agitation many have hestitated to criticize them out of fear of their widely swung smear brush, and they made themselves the super patriots of the day as they strove successfully to regain the ground they lost in their late desperate gyrations in the wake of the party line. though it may not be Che common opinion, we think that today the Reds in America are a greater danger than at any time in their history.

 These June 21st patriots" are vociferously in the war not because they are moved by desire to help the United States but because they know they are helping the Soviet. They were against the war when Stalin was against it; that they changed from the friend of NaZi Germany to become her foe on the same day that the Soviet attitude was reverse is matter of history And as the president of Fordham said recently, if Stalin should be

forced to negotiate a separate peace with Hitler, something incidentally not beyond the realm of possibility, the Communists of the United States would turn on us like wolves"
 For them we must have nothing but contempt. As our country-and for most of them 1t should be their country-Struggles for existence they plan the overthrow by violence of the institutions and the government to preserve which we are expending countless human lives.
 A VALIANT PEOPLE .
 On the other hand we have great admiration for the established brav- cry of the Russian armies and as we condemn the Communists of America we do not in any way minimize the valor of the struggle which has been put up by these unfortunate people in defense ot their homeland.
 Many have wondered why the Russians, persecuted as they were under Communism, have been so willing to fight at the command of their rulers. The London Tablet some time ago carried an explanation which it took from the Swiss paper LaLiberte, described by the Tablet as "one of the very few untram- meled Catholic newspapers remain ing on the Continent of Europe" FIGHTING FOR
 THE FATHERLAND
 The Editor of the Swiss paper points out that the Russian people know that they fight not against crusade against Communism as Hitler tried to advertise his Russian War, but they know that they fight in defense of their home land.
 Millions of Russians who have had to suffer under the regime, and who continue to condemn it in their conscience, fight because they are convinced that Germany is leading no crusade against Bolshevism, but is leading an imperialistic war to subjugate Mother Russia and possess herself of her riches
 We note the return to patriotism, the devotion to national tradition, the glorification of the Russian past which makes adherentS of the Third International in the West blush for shame as such a senti- mental display of bourgeoise reac- AND TOMORROW
 There is good reason to believe that the Russia of tomorrow will not be ruled by its atheists. Last June in an agreement with the United States Russia pledged itself to uphold the principles of a Christian social order If in victory that pledge is kept, will be a Christian Russia that must keep it.
 Today every phase of Russian life, both at the front and in civil affairs, is ruled by the army. While the Communist Party still maintains it's commissars and political instruc- tors, its prestige has undoubtedly waned and rests today almost solely on the fact that Stalin remains the head of the nation and of the army. A change is due, but the Russians have been wise enough to put aside all aspiration of political change that they might unite in their gigantic struggle against the in- vodnr What ic of ctokn &0dav ic greater than the overthrow of Communism-it is the destiny of the Russian people.

LONDON. Jan. IA joint navy

the Norwegian Coast yesterday was
announced today.
A joint communique announced
that one German supply ship of
medium tonnage and two trawlers
were sunk of the town Of Floro,
near Aalesund.
A German canning factory also
was damaged, but low visibility
which made shore targets difficult
to see, caused the naval units to
do little firing at another German
factory, it was said.
In an effort to intercept enemy
shipping" light naval forces entered
Hellefjord between Bergen and
Trondheim last night and spent
some hours working close inshore in
the inner channels looking for enemy
supply ships but found only one Of
medium tonnage of the town Of
Floro," the communique said.
This ship was sunk, along with the
two trawlers, and which were along
side the canning factory.
The firing was restricted. however,
to avoid damage to the little town,
the announcement said.
Despite snow and rain squalls the

lection by relays of fighters and by
making q simultaneous bomber at
tack on the airdrome at Sola, near

sinking Of three German submarines
in the defense of an Atlantic con-
voy points to the improved EN-
cheney of our attack, which puts
an enemy submarine out of COM
mission Immediately and makes

today.
He warned the British against
any assumption that capture Of
prisoners from U-boats was the re-
suit Of deterioration Of morale
among the German crews.
A recent German announcement
Of the transfer of submarines from
the Atlantic to the Mediterranean,
he said, might indicate that this
move was due to more effective de-
fense of Atlantic convoys and that
German U-boats there were not
paying dividends"
"One obvious reason" for the
transfer, he said. was to increase
operations against British naval
units and conveys in the Mediter-
ranean because of the effect these
were having in the battle of Libya.
The German command also
might be trying to draw OF the
Atlantic defense" he commented.
