the treatment of Italians in the
United States.
Mentioned specifically was the
announcement Monday by Attorney
General Biddle that effective Octo-
Der 10 Italians in the United States
no longer would be under restric-
tions as enemy aliens.
This was given added significance
by Mr.. Biddle's disclosure in Wash
ington that copies of his announce
ment now are being dropped in
Italy. He did not disclose the means,
but presumably American or Brit
ish planes, flying from Malta or
some other Mediterranean base, are
being used.
The Basel National Zeitung's cor
respondent in Istanbul reported ru-
mors current in Turkey that the
Himmler Mussolini meeting might
be followed soon by another con-
ference of Hitler and Mussolini.
Himmler's presence would add
strong arm backing to whatever
demands Germany had to make.
Strong detachments of his Ges-
tapo have been reported in Italy
for more than year. making free
with high authority in their task
of keeping the Italians up to the
mark in sharing the military bur-.
dens of the Axis.

occupation forces to throttle anti

Draja Mihailovic have been re-
ported striking with increasing
power at Axis communications and
supply lines and even fighting it out

A September 27 edition of the
Berlin newspaper Boersen Zeitung
received in Ankara reported the
death of German armored d.
vision commander, Gen. Erwin Mack
''at the head of his troops in an
operation in the southwest" and
this was interpreted in Ankara as a
reference to the fight in Yugoslavia.
Size Of Forces Increased.
Official Yugoslav sources in Lon
don said both Germans and italians
had increased the size of their forces
in Yougoslavia recently and that
the German action was prompted
largely by dissatisfaction with Italy's
handling of the problem.
These sources said there was a
growing difference, too. between the
Axis partners over control of Yugo-
slav territory.
A Tass dispatch from Geneva re-
ported yesterday that the Italian
backed government of Croatia had
resigned and interpreted this as
proof that Germany no longer in
tends to allow Italy's predominance
in Croatia"
Originally the Croat government
was set up under a Rome Berlin
agreement recognizing Croatia as q
sphere of italian influence.
Unconflrmed reports from Turkey
said Germany intended to take both
Croatia and Slovenia from Italian
control-and would demand Trieste
as we'll to give Germany her own
operating base opening on the
Mediterranean. Trieste, once Aus
trian, went to italy as a prize of the
First World War.

other line. And this is not always
feasible.
But Mr.. Hammil is emphatic in
his belief that everything possible
should be done for small business.
Small business" as he puts 1t,
us the essence Of democracy in our
economic life. 1t should be pro-
tected and preserved to the utmost
extent. 1t will be found far easier
to keep it going than to rehabilitate
1t after the war"
Sometimes an individual case, like
that of Mr.. Brown, Is so typical it
affects hundreds of other small
manufacturers who have come up
against the identical problem and
have not known how to solve it.
Thus the solution may be, and often
has been, Of general Importance to

Struggled Letter Tells How

BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Nov. 23-How Gen.
Franz Halder was ousted as chief
of the Germany Army general staff
by Hitler was revealed yesterday in
a letter smuggled out of Germany,
printed in the Swedish newspaper
Trots Alt and reported here by the
ONCE of War Information.
Hitler, in the presence of his
entire staff. was reported to have
told Gen. Halder:
Il am under the impression that
your achievements do not keep up
with my demands and you are un-
able to follow my intentions. I
thank you for your work hitherto.
You may CO.
The curt dismissal caused strong
resentment among officers, the let
ter writer said.
The letter, which the paper said
was received direct from Berlin,
but not through official postal
routes" also reported sabotage was
seriously delaying German arma-
ment production, and set German
plane output at present at 5000 a
month.
It related that at the Krupp
Works, Russian war prisoners had
chafed their hands with sandpaper
and then rubbed securing powder
into the wounds in order to make
themselves incapable of work.

illegal means are indicated, appro-
pirate action is taken through Mr..
Arnold's division. But more often,
Mr.. Hammil will tell you, some big
manufacturer has refrained from
giving subcontracts to small fabri-
Gators simply because it was too
much trouble. Other manufactur-
ers have cut of small wholesalers
and retailers from their products
because deliveries were increasingly
difficult and it was easier to deal
with the larger buyers.
When we show them what
they're doing to small business" says
Mr.. Hammil, they usually see our
point of view and cooperate Often
it has been merely carelessness or
indifference"
Three Steps Taken.
There are three steps the clinic
takes when a patient comes in:
First, the complaint is investi-
gated. Is it justified? Next, what
specific remedy, if any, can be de-
vised? Third. what department or
agency is the one empowered to
bring relief?
1t may be the WPB Smaller War
Plants Division or the Smaller War
Plants Corp. is the remedial place.
Perhaps one of the procurement
agencies. 1T may be that some
specialist at the Department of
Commerce can compound a cure.
I'VE are just as interested in help
ing the departments smooth out
their own problems" Mr.. Hammil
explains. We're not out to blame
any one. And, in the great majority
of instances, the other Federal agen-
cies have thanked us for our sug-
gestions."
In Mr.. Hammil's business labora-
tory it has been necessary to make
exhaustive studies of various in
dustries to understand difficulties
encountered. Consultations are held
over pending problems.
Some incurables wander in. be-
wildered, wondering what they
should do. But there's not much
that can be done about the fellow
who has been selling an article
which has been withdrawn from the
market for the duration or so re-
stricted that he can't handle 1t and
make a living. There are, for in
stance, dealers in radios, type
writer's, cupboard motors. many
other things And the filling sta
ton operators.
About all the clinic can prescribe
for these merchants is to try an.
