plans and calculations Of the Hit
lerite clique suffered a complete
collapse whereas the Soviet Union
has withstood all trials and still
further strengthened its defensive
power and, together with other
freedom loving peoples of the world,
created the condition for complete
destruction of the Hitlerite army.
This is the irrevocable result of
one year of war.
Allies Gain Strength.
In the course Of the Soviet-Ger
man war Germany has continuously
lost strength, while the Soviet Union
and friendly, allied countries have
constantly gained.
The complete fiasco of imperialist,
Hitlerite theology, demagogy and
lying propaganda has been proved.
The imaginary new order in Eu-
rope" and the supposedly special
mission of the "Aryan race" and Of
Fascists as bearers Of culture to all
suffered a resounding failure.
AAiC ooS1oCo INV dPPCd4 DClOI e
the peoples of the world as reac-
tionaries and the German imperial
lists as enemies of the working peo-
pie, vehicles of evil and barbarity,
enemies of progress and destroyers
Of culture.
Hitlerite Germany has become the
mortal enemy of a majority of the
population of the globe This also is
proved by the disintegration that
has commenced in the internal and
European rear of the German Army
The spirit of revolt and protest
against a war for alien interests of
German bankers and plutocrats is
growing among the peoples enslaved
by German imperialism, who are ex-
periencing incredible hardships Of
war.
Lastly, this is proved by the pros
poets of the war, which have become
ever more favorable for the Soviet
Union, Great Britain and the United
States and more unfavorable for
Germany and her vassal allies"
These are the political and mill
tary results of one year of war with
the German Fascist invaders.

mony exist between all concerned In
facing the vast and grave tasks
which lie ahead. A number of out
standing points of detail which 1t
would have been difficult to settle by
correspondence have been adjusted
by technical officers after conSulta-
ton with the President and the
Prime Minister" :"
This first statement since Mr..
Churchill's arrival last Thursday
was entirely devoid of any pointed
lntimations as to the exact nature
Of the problems that brought Eng
lands war leader across the Atlantic
by plane.
Look Ahead to Offensive.
There was some reason to believe,
however, that serious as the i'm
mediate military situations may be
in China. North Africa and South
ern Russia, the two United Nations
chieftains were looking ahead with
measured optimism to the time when
the Allied powers will go on an Of
fensive intended to wipe out the
Axis
The assertion that the President
and Prime Minister we're mapping
an offensive strategy came from
Mr. Hopkins Addressing a Russian
war relief rally in New York last
night, the lease-lend administrator
said Mr.. Churchill has but one
business here" and that was the
planning of such strategy.
Neither the Churchill Roosevelt
statement nor the Hopkins speech
was so phrased as to nullify wide
speculation that the opening of a
second front in Europe was matter
of prime consideration in the con-
situations now in progress.
Mr. Hopkins told the meeting he
had talked to Mr.. Roosevelt a few
hours before leaving Washington
and the President gave him this
message to deliver:
Tell them that we mean to give
Russia aid on the field of battle
and that our armed forces will at
tack at the right time and at the
right place and that the Russian
front will not fail
Third and Fourth Front.
"A second front?" Mr.. Hopkins
asked Yes, and if necessary a
third and fourth front" to pen the
German Army in ring of our Of
fensive steel. Hitlers boastings are
getting tanner and tanner for he
knows that the Russian Army or
his eastern front and a British
American Army on other fronts
when and where he does not know
will bring his vaunted panzer di-
visions to heel. And his cities, one
by one, will be destroyed by the
Allied air forces"
this word: Keep up the good fight
for the Yanks are coming"
M. M. Litvinov, Soviet Ambassador
to the United States who spoke with
Mr.. Hopkins at the Madison Square
Garden rally, declared Hitlers new

offensive on the Eastern front was
his final throw of the dice"
He said the whole military Situa-
ton might have been changed if the
German Army had been diverted
when the Soviets held the offensive,
but expressed hope that the lesson
have not been in vain and that
soon Hitler will have to relinquish
his pet idea of war on one front
only"

Coming to Pass

There was only brief mention made of
an important matter in the press of this
state the other day. OF course the major
portion of the story in question dealt
with the fortunes of the Republican
Party next fall, but of more far-reaching
Importance, in our estimation was the
conclusion of the same story which
related that Republicans were going to
name a State Central CommitteeWoman
in the seth senatorial district. That's
News, dear readers, important news.
In case you don't think so, please take
notice of the district designation = 36th.
We have never before in legislative his
tory had Seth senatorial district. District
was created by act of the 1941 Legislature
which almost begrudgingly agreed that
something should be done about district
reapportionment. Rather than attempt
the difficult task, though, of redistricting,
the General Assembly simply separated
Greenwich and Stamford, formerly COM
prising the 9th senatorial district.
Henceforth Stamford will be the 9th
senatorial district and Greenwich will be
the new Seth. Both cities will be repre-
Sented by senator's at the 1943 legislative
session for the first time. That is really
important to the entire state, because it
denotes progress after several decades OF
failure to recognize conditions. Much
still remains to be done about securing
positive and equal representation in the
various voting districts of Connecticut,
but, with the one change made last year,
there will be complete cessation Of efforts
now until 1851, for only in the legislative
session following decennial census may
these changes be effected.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1942-02-05

cultural tradition which bears no better
fruit as its eliminating glory than MAJ
ism, let us be quite clear that it is de-
light to be no part of any such contin-
uity. The important thing about cul-
tural inheritance is not what was it?"
but what are you doing with it," To be
actively in the midst of the creation of a
new culture which we have reason to hope
may some day be truly civilized, is far bet
ter than to be at the fag-end of cultural
tradition once honorable, but betrayed
and traduced by its present representa-
tives.
Behind the roaring of Dr. Ley there is a
ruStling murmur 1t comes from all the
great figures of the past, who created the
4000-year-old cultural tradition of which
Ley dares to Drag, the artists, the writer's,
the musicians, the statesmen and philos-
ophers. They gaze with blank horror
down the corridors of time at the girls
ly reversion to barbarism being engi-
neered by DR.. Ley and his cohorts. The
rustling grows louder. Yes! They are turn
ing over in tleir graves!
The Waterbury Democrat., 1942-02-05
1000 Years of Culture

Americans, shouts Dr. Robert Ley, Hit
ler's labor task-master, should establish
1000 years of culture before calling Ger
mans and Italians barbarians. Thanks,
afraid we can't wait. A culture is best
estimated, it seems to the crude Amer
lean mind, by it's fruits. The fruit of the
culture so reverenced by Dr. Ley is now
on exhibit throughout all that part of
Europe now covered by the new ORDER"
and it's rotten fruit.
The United States ought to glory in the
fact that it doesn't have 1000 years OF
such Culture" behind it. Mark Twain
slaughtered once and for all the Euro
pean appeal to the authenticity of age.
A caustic Frenchman, thinking to put
upstart United States culture in its place,
sneered that in that raw country so lit
