Witness Names
.Comstodk Aide
AT Mckay Trial

Arthur Rosenberg. famed in De-
troit during the prohibition era as
one of the Two Twinnies," testi-
fed at the trial of Frank d. Nc
Kay today that he entered the
liquor business Immediately after
repeal. drawing commissions for
liquor sales during the administra-
ton of former Gov. William A.
Comstock.
He said he represented the
Samuel Freedman Distillery Com
pany of Cincinnati and that he
placed the Freedman line in the
Michigan stores.
He testified that during this
time. which was 1884, he owed
81, 900 to Republican National
Committeeman Mckay. who is on
trial with nine others in the liquor
mail fraud case.
TESTIMONY STRICKEN
But Judge Shackelford Miller
Jr. of Louisville, KY, ordered this
testimony stricken and told the
jury to disregard it.
Rosenberg admitted serving two
terms in Leavenworth.
At the session yesterday. c. A.
Fillmore, once sales manager for
the Freedman distillery. said that
Rosenberg was followed as Mich
igan representative by o. X. Fjet-
land, former secretary to Governor
comstock.
Fillmore, a former farmer from
Waukegan, Ill, slouched in the
witness chair, his striped socks
blazing in the afternoon sun, and
brought many a laugh from the
spectators as he described his ex-
periences in the liquor business.
25 CENTS A CASE
"Fjetland wanted % cents a
case extra commission for Bill
Lewis, who was then secretary
Of the liquor commission" Full
more said. 81 told him there
was not that much soap In the
bucket.
81 told Freedman that Fjet-
land was just trying to chisel
two bits. Gosh-a-mighty, I'd
have been lucky to make two
bits a case for myself when the
politicians got through with me-"
Once he turned 10 Judge Miller
and admonished:
Say, Judge, I think I have
gone over my connections with
Freedman often enough, don't
you?"
Fillmore testified that his line
was blacklisted during the Com
stock administration because he
was told that commissions had not
been paid in full.
He said that in 1885, in trying
to straighten out his difficulties,
two names were mentioned.
The names mentioned were
Fitzgerald and Mckay" he said.
Thereafter, he said, he was
represented in Michigan by the
Duo Sales and Engineering COM
pany, firm headed by William II.

Among other reasons why the
! Germans and the Japanese are
pushing us SO hard is the fact that
were too nice. We think and try
to act like gentlemen. We refuse
to recognize that was is a nasty,
brutal business, which can not be
settled with one hand while we hold
our faStidious nose with the other
We meaning particularly the
Anglo-SaXon peopleS-are not ir-
retrievably soft. We are as cour-
ageouS as any-probably more than
most We are as clever, as scienti-
fic, as logical as imaginative as
our enemies.
Yet we let them shove us
around.
The time has come-Tobruk and
others-for us to get tough, to
forget Marquis of Queensbury rules,
to inculcate ourselves with the
fighting code of the lumber camps.
The time has come for us to de-
Velop a good. ardent, let's-knock-
their dirty -blocks-off hate against
any man who wears an axis uni
form or has to do with the axis
war effort.
1t seems to be agreed by on-the-
spot observers that we probably
had at one time the men and the
material in North Africa with
which to beat General Rommel's
armies.
Good, competent correspondents
who watched the campaign from
the fighting lines say that we lost
because, instead of asking Where
will we hit Rommel neXt?" our
leaders worried about, Where will
Rommel strike us next?"
Everything else being equal, wars
are won by those who are in there
slugging every minute, taking the
initiative, making the rules, barring
no holds, missing no bets.
Right now that is the Germans,
the Russians, the Japs.
The Russians are doing the most
creditable job, on our side, be-
cause they are as tough and ruth
less as their enemies
They're no braver than the Brit
iSh and Americans. They're no
cleverer. They're no better equip
ped. They're no better led
All they have that we lack, thus
far, is the will to win at any cost.
Every Russian fights with the feel
ing that upon him individually,
falls the entire burden of the war.
They kick, they gouge, they bite.
they claw They recognize no foul
zone. They fight the devil with fire,
the axis with its own callous, rat
in-a-corner technique.
Before we shall win, we must for
get that we are. good sports. We
must stop cycling the net, prepara-
tory to jumping across to congrat-
ulate the victor. We must get in and
slug, resolved that in the end only
the victor shall remain alive-and
he shall be us.
