The Greet Game Of Politics
African Victory Good News, but Situation
In Far East Must Not Be Lost Sight Of

The claim Is that, combined, under .
single head. the job could be done
far more effectively by one-tenth the
number Of men. thus releasing sew
eral hundred flrst-class officers for
other work.
Those 1t the heads Of these divi-
sions are warm personal friends, but
rivals just the same. They daily
confer with Elmer Davis of owl,
but operate their departments and
give their own news entirely indie
pendent Of Mr.. Davis and OF each
other.
No one contends the system is good,
but there it is. Unification could be
accomplished without trouble.
1t does not require presidential &C
ton. 1t could be done by agreement
between the Secretaries of War and
Navy, but that it will be done is
doubtful. However, the suggestion
has been made to both.
Another advantage of the abolition
of the competitive publicity system
Is that it would make unnecessary
the rather undignified exhibition
of our heroes, which is sometimes
carried to extremes. As quickly
as a man in either Army or Navy
distinguishes himself abroad, the
public relations division OF his par
ticular service seeks to have him
sent home on leave.
Once here, he is sent out on q
transforming tour of the country,
lecturing, exhibiting pictures and
otherwise putting on show.
This, of course, produces a graft
flying number of headlines, but it
is certainly painful to the heroes
and it is doubtful whether the i'm
provement in public morale balances
the inevitable cheapening effect of
these performances.

Rubbis Rebuke Jewish
Opponents of Zionism
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Nov. 16.-Declaring
that "the defeat of Hitler will not OF
itself normalize Jewish life In Eu-
rope" 1873 rabbis issued a pronounce
ment yesterday rebuking Jewish OPP
ponents of Zionism as dealing a
cruel blow" to the Jewish people.
The action, said to be without
precedent in the history of American
Jewry, is rejoinder to a statement
made recently by a group of reform
rabbis regarded as unfriendly to the
Zionist cause.
Denying the charge that Zionism
is secularist movement, the state
ment asserts that ut has its origins
and roots in the authoritative re-
ligious texts of Judaism" and scores
anti-Zionism as "a departure from
the Jewish religion"

Recognition Of DorIon as Civil Authority
In French Africo Appears Out Of the Question

uOWA G1lc <TcuCH people. 6uC
there Is no logic In our celebrat-
ing a victory by recognizing the
same government. Things don't
turn out that way.
vichy France, under the prom
inent leadership of Admiral OAR
Ian was a palnd beige Naziism. It
abolished the motto Of liberty,
equality. and fraternity" 1t de-
stroyed every vestige Of popular
government; 1t staged the Riom
trials; 1t turned over to Hitler,
Mussolini and Franco anti Fascist
refugees; it instituted copies of
the Nuremberg laws; it prtici-
pated in the deportation Of Jews
to Poland; it dissolved the trade
unions and suppressed the free
press; it created q French Legion
as a kind of S. A.; it turned over
Indo-C China to the Japanese and
thus enabled the Japs to attack
us; 1t ordered the French fleet to
shoot at the British in Mers-El-
Kebir ard Dakar; it ordered re-
sistance in Syria and Madasgas-
car; it produced ornaments for
the German war effort and re-
cruited French volunteers for the
Nazi war against Russia; it never
even requested the French fleet to
join us until 1t was too late; on
the contrary, it ordered resistance
to us in Morocco and Algiers and
caused the deaths Of an unknown
number Of Frenchmen and Amer
leans.
Unconsolidated Situation.
Neither freedom of speech, nor
freedom from fear is possible un-
der any Vichy leaders. There
fore one must regard the present
political moment as an interval
in an unconsolidated military
situation.
Throughout these days Gen. de
Gaulle has behaved calmly and
impeccably. I am no fanatical
De Gaullist, but the Fighting
French are our allies and have
been since the beginning. Gen.
de Gaulle always has insisted
that the future political leader
ship Of France could come out
OF the underground forces Of
resistance now there. Obviously
we cannot assume that any lead
ership Of such underground re-
sistance can come from former
Vichyites who have spent their
lives suppressing and prosecuting
them.
Issues Are Fundamental.
In this war the issues at stake
are so fundamental that 1t is
absolutely out Of the question
that our State Department and
the President will play with the
forces of reaction In Europe,
spilling democratic blood in order
to set up anachronistic or para
fascist regimes. Nor is there
enough Toryism in the whole of
Britain to make that possible
before British public opinion. It
is as impossible as 1t would be
to set up and make acceptable
q Papen-Goering government in
Germany, which would be an
analogy to Darlan- Nogues gov
eminent in France. To attempt
to do so would be to incite the
most radical revolts in the whole
OF Europe.
Our government knows these
things. We have very distin-
guished political leadership.

harbor. The only supply line
for our North African forces In
that event would be through
Morocco. Such an action would
seriously hamper our effort In
North Africa.
Naxis Were Not surprised.
The planes Of Hitler and his
general staff are naturally I'M
known to us. It would be foolish
to think that the Nazis were
taken completely by surprise
when we went into French
Africa. For at least three weeks
before our forces began to land,
the Nazi radios broadcast the
news that the Allies were prepar-
ing such q move.
Axis submarines had been re-
porting to Berlin important
transport movements from the
United States toward the African
bulge. Hence, while the secret
was well kept in this country and
in Great Britain, 1t was impos-
sible to prepare such a huge
operation without keeping the
news from the watchful enemy.
The Nazis evidently miscalcu-
lated the resistance of the
French Army in Africa. The re-
ports Of their intelligence officers
there were several thousand of
them in Algeria and Morocco
said the French land, sea and air
forces would fight any invasion
attempt. They estimated that
with reduced supplies the French
could hold back the American
British forces for at least 10 days,
giving the Nazi submarine and
air force sufficient time to con-
centrate on the Allied transports.
Nazi Schedule Disrupted.
This was evidently true. Had
the French offered more than a
pre-arranged token resistance 1t
Is doubtful whether we would
have progressed as rapidly as we
did-and without any losses
worth mentioning. The resistance
of the French feet at Gasablanca
Is perfect example what we
would have encountered had the
rest of the French forces resisted
with the same suicidal determi-
nation"
The attitude of the French In
Morocco, including that of two
men the Germans considered
"safe"-Admiral Jean Darlan and
Gen. Auguste Nogues-was the
only surprise Hitler received in
the North African campaign.
American military observers
believe the Nazi invasion of Spain
was scheduled for about 10 days
after a German victory in French
Africa. The fact that the French
came to our side must have
thrown the Nazi schedule out of
gear.
If, by the end of this week, the
Nazi legions have not appeared
in Spain, the situation will be
easier for us. 1t also may in
dictate the German high COM
mand has plans directed toward
the Balkans and Turkey rather
than Western Europe.

ToMoRRoW'S MARINERS
They're school kids!
Many have already had
wild adventure at sea

"EEN-AGE America had tall stories
to tell this year when it returned
to the nations high schools.
Thousands of them spent vacations on
farms; others worked in war plants.
But without doubt the most exciting
vacations were spent by many of the
students of Metropolitan Vocational
High School on the lower East Side of
New York City.
As students in the Maritime
Trades division of the school, these
sturdy, keen-eyed 10 and l7-year-
old lads decided to implement their
dry-land engine, deck, radio and
bodybuilding training with actual
experience at sea.
They easily got jobs as wipers or ordi-
nary seamen on United Nations freight
ers, tankers and even troop transports.
One of them returned with button
from the blouse of Red Army soldier,
another with an African native spear.
Many of the schools graduates OF
past years are at sea now in Merchant
Marine ships. Others have experienced
at least one sinking; two have died in
the line of duty.
Future Shippers
lHE maritime courses we're begun at
the high school in 1887. Under the
direction of sea-minded Principal Frank
lin ]. Keller, more than $50 students
have completed the four-year intensive
course; nearly 1000 are registered for
this terms work. Some will go on to
officer training at the New York State
Merchant Marine Academy.
This term the young mariners will
probably get an opportunity to work
on an old ferryboat now docked at an
East River pier. The boys hope to get
the rusty machinery in good working
order, install new wiring system, build
a complete radio room, install life boats
made in the school shipbuilding course.

Increase Allowed on
Sugar for Canning

As announced last week, the quota
of sugar allowed for canning for the
season of 1912, has been increased
from pounds to 1912 pounds per
person, according to James A. fowler,
of the War Rationing Board. Those
who desire this extra allotment may
apply at the local Rationing Board in
Oakland and receive the amount due
them.
1t will not be necessary to apply
for this extra allotment in person, Mr..
fowler said. A letter or postal card,
stating that this additional allotment
is desired, will be given attention and
certificates will be mailed for the bal
ance due for the 1912 canning season
This applies to those who have reg
istered and received portion of their
allotment. Those who have never APP
piled for canning sugar may call at
the local office and register on any
Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday
during the month of July. The office
is not open for registrations on any
other days during this month.
Points of Regulations
The local Rationing Board calls at
tention to the following regulations
which must be complied with:
Within ten days after the death of
a consumer, the person having pos
session of his or her War Ration
Book shall surrender it to the Board
for cancellation.
When a consumer to whom War
Ration Book has been issued becomes
confined to an institution, he shall sur
render his War Ration Book to the
head Of the institution.
If a consumer is indicted into the
armed services of the United States,
or leaves the United States for a pc
riod of more than thirty days, he shall
surrender his War Ration Book to the
Board.
1t is very important that these
regulations be complied with immedi-
ately.
