RIO DE JANEIRO-T'he Ameri-
can public is going to hear a lot
more about Ramon S. Castillo, IL
year-old Acting President OF Ar
gentina, so it might be good idea
to get better acquainted with him
now.
Castillo is the man who tried 10
throw a monkey wrench into Pan
American unity against the Axis at
Ric, and who is the semi-dictator
of 100000 Argentines. :.
Actually Castillo was only elect
ed vice-president of Argentina and
has precipitated situation which
might have happened in the Unit
ed States if Jack Garner succeeded
Roosevelt or Charley Curtis had
replaced Hoover. Castillo is just as
out of step with President Ortiz
and with the American people as
Curtis or Garner were with Hoover
and Roosevelt.
The present Argentine situation
might also be compared to the
last part of Woodrow Wilson'S adj
ministraticn when committee

AXIS SPRING
DRIVE next
GREAT MOVE
Offensive Is Predicted for
Capture Of Suez Canal
Also Gibraltar

LONDON, Feb. 10--A great spring
offensive by the Axis to capture the
Suez Canal and Gibraltar is pre-
dicted by informed military experts.
The object of this spring offensive
is to deprive the United Nations of
two major bases on which Allied
strategy rests On attacks by the Ger
man armies.
This drive is predicted to be staged
to coincide with the maximum Jap
anese efforts against the South Pa
cific and Burma Road in the vast
pincer operations to hem in the
British forces in India.
To combat these Axis schemes, the
British will be forced to fight Field
Marshal Rommels African Corps
with forces now stationed in the
Arabian regions.
Reinforcements either from Great
Britain or the United States will be
difficult because of the shortage of
shipping forced by the spread of the
war.
