Roosevelt, Churchill Set Goal
Before Singapore Curtin Says
Decision to Beot
Germans First
Disclosed
BY the Associated Press.

| BY the Associated Press.
CANBERRA, Australia. Dec.
10.-Prime Minister Curtin, in a
review of the war, told the House
OF Representatives today that
President Roosevelt and Prime
Minister Churchill decided even
before the fall of Singapore that
their first task was the defeat of
Germany.
That decision, he said, involved
Australia in what essentially at
present is a holding campaign.
Singapore fell last February IS.
Australia, with all. the help she
can obtain from the outside. must
be prepared to hang on until the
maximum Allied strength can be
concentrated against Japan, Mr.
Curtin said.
He warned the nation it must be
prepared to repulse strong air and
sea borne attacks from Japanese
concentrated on the island of Timor,
to the north.
In facing such a powerful and
determined enemy as Japan" the
Prime Minister went on, I'VE must
be prepared to make any sacrifices
enabling us to match and overcome
a foe so thoroughly trained in the
needs of war. This prescription for
victory I adjure all Australians to
observe"
He said Australian Army battle
casualties in New Guinea up to De-
cember l were 2,l90, of which $40
were killed in action or died of
wounds.
Australia has much to be thank
full for the Prime Minister said.
I'VE have felt the impact of enemy
bombs, but have been spared the
horror and devastation of war on
our own soil. There should be
throughout the continent a univer-
sal feeling of deep gratitude and
thanksgiving Recently it has been
American seapower that has been
the bulwark between Japan and
Australia"
Mr.. Curtin said. however, there
was nothing to justify the optimis-
tic view that the end is in sight
Japan is the master of vast ter
ritories with large populations and
vital resources for war" he said.
Her strength is still great"
The Prime Minister emphasized
that the closest cooperation existed
between himself, Gen. Macarthur

Mrs. Roosevelt Urges
Land Army Of Women
Similar 10 Britain's
Shortage Of Monpower
May Hit Forms Hardest,
Presidents Wife Holds
BY the Associated Press

NEW YORK, Dec. 1O.-Creation
OF volunteer womens land army to
augment the Nations agricultural
manpower was suggested last night
by Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt.
Reporting on her recent trip to
Great Britain, the Presidents wife
said in a broadcast address:
Il have an idea that in this coun-
try we may feel our shortage Of
manpower more acutely on the
farms than anywhere else, and per-
haps the organization of a land
army may be the most helpful pat
tern for us to study in Great Brit
ain. The regular supply of
farm labor might be greatly helped
over here by the organization of a
woman's land army.
The placement would, OF course,
be done through the regular en-
ployment service channels and the
recruiting and training would prob
ably be better done under the De-
partment of Agriculture. Ours
would have to be voluntary en-
listment."
Mrs. Roosevelt paid high tribute to
the British for their courage and
fortitude.
Il have come back" she con-
tinued, with q tremendously in
creased confidence and admiration
for the ability Of human beings to
stand up under difficulty and dan
ger. I am sure We could do just
what the British have done, but
I hope We may not have to. I
trust that We will be able to under
stand enough about the world in
which we live so that We will truly
allow all of our energies and all
of our power to 60 into the organi-
zation of a world in which such
things as this war cannot happen
again"
Mrs. Roosevelt said that American
nghting men scattered over the
world are learning to be the best
United States citizens possible be-
cause they are learning about the
world as . whole. -
We who stay at home must

stretch our own horizons in every
way possible so when the boys re-
turn they will And us able to keep
step with them mentally"
Speaking Of postwar planning,
she said "the Beveridge British
social security report shows how
far their thinking has gone and
think that We should be grateful
that there are groups Of people in
and out Of the Government who are
also planning for the future over
here"

out after much opposition arose.
Army. Navy and other Govern
ment officials testified before the
committee in favor Of the tariff
proposal and said the President in
tended to use the powers only where
1t was necessary to further the war
effort.
Representative Gearhart, Repub-
lican. of California, leader Of the

Cattlemen and other groups also

This is an artists tOdy of shouting

let a brick slip from his fingers.
This sort of thing doesn't happen
often, but the bare chance of it may
be remembered. Perhaps it explains
why this superstition was started in
the first place.
In dodging a real or fancied dan
ger we should take care not to step
into another danger. An artist

women says it brings bad fortune

walk is close against street and
the woman steps over the curb and
into the path Of a truck.
Quite a number of persons are
nervous about Friday the 18th.
There is no good reason for them
to be nervous, but by being so they
can add to the danger of their lives.
A motorist with his nerves on edge
may not drive well on such a Friday.
Everyday life has enough danger
without adding needless worries OF
that kind. In crossing any street
we must keep our wits about us.
Even when the lights are green there
is danger that cars will turn the
corner.
Some cities have walk" lights in
addition to the red and green lights.
These lights give people on foot
enough time to cross street and
motorists are not allowed to 60 for
ward or to turn.
There may come a day when you
will 60 one step too far, with an
oncoming car very close. Perhaps
quick step will save you, but be
careful Of the back step! Time and
again people have become excited
at time like that and have stepped
too far back-into the path Of a
car in the opposite direction.
The best thing, of course, is not
to get into danger of that kind. No
matter how much in a hurry we may
be, it isn't wise TO rush into danger.
Years ago q man In Pittsburgh
was in hurry to get to his Office;
he feared he might be a minute late.
Crossing street, against traffic, he
was struck by truck and one Of
his legs was broken. He was de-
layed two months in reaching his
Office,

Michigan

while consumption amounted approximately 100000 bags.
Sugar anticipate 1929 between 81 and million
