members of an alleged Axis Spy
ring, pleaded guilty in federal court
today to a charge of espionage and
was sentenced to five years in pris-

Vonsiatsky was mot the central
moving figure in the conspiracy
but had associated with the Ger
man-American Bund, attending its
meetings and conferences, and that
he had contributed total of $4,000

ImperiaIs Waiting
For Next Move Of
German Attackers

CAIRO, June %. CUP)-British
mobile forces spared today with
Axis spearheads along the Egypt
Libya frontier, tightening their line
guarding Egypt in expectation that
Nazi Marshal Erwin Rommel would
soon launch a major offensive.
Today's Middle East headquarters
communique gave no indication that
the Axis drive toward the Suez was
underway, but front reports said
I,ommel was massing large forces
in the invasion area, including a
star German parachutist corps which,
aided in the capture of Tobruk.
CA military commentator in Lon
don said Rommel was expected to
launch an attack momentarily, "it
he has not already started.")
FORCES "ACTIVE"
British Middle East headquarters
reported that Imperial mobile forces
were "active" yesterday in the Lib
yam area south of Fort Capuzzo and
that "slight" enemy activity was
noted in the frontier area during
the day.
C"There was a temporary lull yes
terday-temporary because the Ger
mans will lose no time in making
their next move, and this move OBJ
viously will be an attack on Egypt,
the London commentator said. They
may be attacking now for all one
knowS.'D
Circumstantial statements that
Rommel used parachutiStS OF the
picked force of Lieut.. Gen. Kurt
Student, long based in Crete, against
Tobruk, increased anxiety here anc
hardened belief that the Axis forces
would lose no time in pressing theil
attack against the new British line
on the Egyptian-Iibyan border.
CHUTISTS IN TOBRUK
According to dispatches from the
front, Rommel used the parachutist:
to take the inner defenses at To-
bruk after dive bomberS and heavy
guns had made them an inferno.
The British, South African anC
Indian troops of the garrison de-
Tended themselves stoutly, shooting
many of the parachutists in the air
but were finally overwhelmed, i
was reported.
II was believed here that thu
parachutistS had been sent from
Crete, where they made the frs
conquest by air-borne troops il
history, to Libya and that thei
planes had taken off in Libya TO
the assault.
Now, it was believed, Romme
might at any hour order the attacl
against the Egyptian frontier lint
and at the same time use his para
chutists far behind the lines tt
attack lightly defended commune
cation lines.
Student was reported to have a!
many as 25O,OOO parachutist troop'
in Crete and Greece, who have beer
waiting for months for orders tt
attack Cyprus and Syria.

Chinese Hold TO
b2-MiIe Front

CHUNGKING, June %. up
Chinese troops still hold a e2-mile
stretch of the vital Nanchang-
Hangchow railway in eastern China
and are frustrating violent Japan
ese attacks, a military spokesman
said today.
He said the Chinese held territory
was between the cities of Shanghai
and Kweiki, both in japanese hands.
A previous Chungking communique
confirmed that the japanese occu-
pied Kweiki last week, one day after
a spearhead driving westward along
the railway gained control of Shang-
jao.
A new threat was reported devel-
oping in the Kweiki area, toward
which fresh enemy forces were be-
lieved moving eastward from the
south shore of Lake Poyang where
they landed early last week.

cial operation the process of making
rubber from industrial alcohol. This
product has been given severe tests
with highly satisfactory results. Those
who are backing this process say
they can turn out 100000 tons the
first year at cost of rs million
dollars and that would be dirt cheap
for a solution to our rubber short
age. With all the brains and money
now engaged in finding cheap sub
stitute for rubber it is only a ques-
ton of a short time until we will
be producing synthetic rubber in an
amount that few dreamed possible
year or two ago. This war is going
to greatly increase our independence
of foreign sources of supply and that
will be something to chalk up to the
credit side of the ledger.

poration war profits and at the same
time increased the corporate normal
and surtaxes from 36 to 40 per cent
This action will bring 21a billions or
more in additional revenue to the
Federal treasury.
Congress is in accord with the
Presidents proposal to tax heavily
all along the line to prevent infla-
ton, also through stabilization of
prices. In his message to Congress
the President advocated the stabiliza-
ton of wages Congress agrees with
him that the worst thing that could
possibly happen to us would be un-
controlled initiation such as they had
in Europe following the last war,
when the entire middle class was
wiped out in several European coun-
tries and, of course, it would have
the same effect here. Initiation would
be far more harmful than would a
series of military defeats and the
President is to be commended for
taking steps to prevent such catas-
trophe 1 thoroughly agree with him
when he says there is no time like
the present for paying off debts,
mortgages and other obligations while
money is plentiful. In the past the
tendency has been to pile up debts
when the times were good and many
have learned to their sorrow that it
is mighty hard to pay such debts
when money is scarce. To those
who have no debts it is suggested
they buy government bonds and
stamps, both safe investments.
Pay to be Raised.
On March 80 the Senate passed
bill that would increase the pay
of enlisted men from $21 to S42 per
month, and make adjustments in the
base pay and subsistence allowances
of others in the armed forces. On
Thursday of last week the House
Military Affairs committee favor
ably reported the measure to the
House and as the leaders have given
this legislation the green light its
early passage is assured.
Then there is the aid to soldiers
dependents bill which will also be
passed at an early date. The enact
ment of this legislation presages the
calling of some 3-A men whose de-
pendents, such as parents or grand
parents, brothers or sisters, depend
on them for financial support. 1t is
said that later on it may be neces-
sary to call men with dependent
wives and children but that is not
an early prospect.
Relief for Auto Dealers.
BY unanimous vote, Congress last
week enacted a bill that will enable
automobile dealers who were caught
with cars and tires on hand when
the freezing order was issued in De-
cember, to secure relief through the
Reconstruction Finance Corporation
which is authorized to purchase, or
make loans upon such cars and tires.
Space will not permit my going into
details but 1 will be very happy to
send anyone interested copy of the
law, upon request. This legislation
is a result of the work of the Com
mittees on Small Business in the
Senate and House which have been
working on these problems for sew
eral months.
