Press in New York that Mr.. O'Con-
nor probably meant" that the Hill
indictment was part Of the smear
campaign against me-"
Il will say that George Hill is 100
per cent OK. and I'll back George
Hill to the limit on anything"
For q full half hour after the Gov
ernment yesterday had closed its
case against Mr.. Hill, Attorney
O'Connor pleaded in favor Of his
motion.
Mr.. O'Coanor declared there was
nothing in che mail sacks the grand
jury need be interested in-only
franked speeches by members OF
Congress. He pointed out that Mr..
Hill did "firally" get the bags to the
grand jury.
Viereck Connections Discounted.
Defense counsel also contended
there was mot one scintilla" Of evil
dence Mr.. Hill ever met Viereck,
and only the word Of two girls in
the late senator Lundeen's ONCE
that they heard Viereck phoning
Mr.. Hill.
Justice Let's ruled yesterday that
If convicted Mr.. Hill will be SEN
fenced under the District Of Colum-
bia code rather than under the
Federal pecjury statute as the de-
fense had desired.
This decision means Mr.. Hill
could be sentenced to 2 to 10 years
imprisonment on each Of the two
counts, prosecution attorneys said.
A contrary ruling would have made
the maximum jail sentence 5 years
but would have permitted . $4,000
fine, it was stated.

civilian defense according to metro
politan areas, rather than separate
city or county lines, because from
an airplane such boundary lines are
meaningless.
The plan has been to make the
mayor Of the largest city in metro
politan area the regional director
for the area.
Mrs. Roosevelt stressed the need
of making every man and woman
feel they are q part of the defense
effort, and said whenever any group
Is left out it weakens civilian morale.
Take your Negro population right

cases. It may be an alien group,
who came to this country to escape
certain conditions abroad"
While discussing crowded condi-
tions in Washington, Mrs. Roosevelt
mentioned the difficulty defense
workers have in getting their lunch
in the time available The colored
workers, she said, have an even
greater problem, because they have
to go further to places where they
can get lunch.

Japanese Relations
Unchanged, Declares
Soviet Spokesman
Lozovsky CIoims Nozis
Are Losing Help Of Allies
And Thousands Of Men
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
KUIBYsHEv, Russia. Jan. IA
s. A. Lozovsky. Russian spokesman
and Vice Commissar of Foreign AT
fairs, declared yesterday that Soviet
Japanese relations were unchanged,
still being based on the neutrality
pact Of April.
His press conference, first since
war broke out in the Pacific, was
attended by both Japanese and
Allied correspondents.
His comment on relations with
Japan was in response to a Japanese
reporters question. He added that
negotiations were under way for re-
newal of the Far Eastern fisheries
pact with Japan which expired De-
cember 81 but that they had not
been concluded.
OF the war against Germany, he
expressed optimism and said, Ger
many now is trying to get new forces
from Hungary, Italy and Rumania,
but 1t is more difficult since Ger
many has been weakened. The Red
Army's blows at the Reichswehr are
reflected not only in occupied coun-
tries but also in those hitherto un-
touched by war.
Finnish Clashes Reported.
"The situation in Finland is worse
than in any other ally OF Ger
many"
He said he had heard Of clashes
between Finnish soldiers and civil
ians on one hand and German
troops on the other, and remarked,
"such a situation cannot last much
longer"
Lozovsky added. however, that he
was not acquainted with the motives
for the visit to Stockholm of the
Finnish diplomat DR.. Juho Kusti
Paasikivi.
Lozovsky said the Germans and
Firms in the northern sectors had
thought that when the polar night
set in Red Army activity would
cease. but they miscalculated; our
counterattacks there are con-
tinuing.
In the Crimea, he said, the Ger
mans are getting no rest day or
night and developments are favor
ing the Russians.
Sneering at Adolf Hitler's appoint
ment of himself as head OF the Ger
man Army, Lozovsky said the Rus
sian answer had been the taking OF
Kaluga.
Big Nazi Losses Claimed.
I'VE know the enemy is strong,
however" Lozovsky conceded. The
wounded beast is dangerous before
It dies, but we shall continue our
blows until we clear the land of all
Hitler murderers and assassins.'
Lozovsky said the Germans lost
200 900 dead between November r6
and January 6 and that the Rus
SLAMS had captured or destroyed
$500 German tanks, 4,500 guns,
80 900 rifles, 1,136 planes and 5000
automobiles.
Writing in the Moscow News, Eng
Nsh-language paper now published
In Kuibyshev, Col. Sergei Gurov
also listed the German dead for that
period at 100000 and said the Red
Army had recaptured $4,000 square
kilometers, (32,8oo square miles, Of
territory.
Lozovsky also said there were
100000 Germans in Mozhaisk. west
of Moscow, who were In "an unen-
viable position"
