 steels were strong. Bethlehem touched 54 3-4 up 1-4 and then slipped back partially. US. Steel ranged between 48 1-8 and 46 5-S, the latter up 3-8. Coppers were steady to firm with Kennecott &C., tive. A block of 1000 shares of Cerro De Pasco Swelled the total in that issue.

 COTTON FUTURES

 Near midway the list was up 8 to 9 points from previous closings after opening to points higher.
 Trade and mill interests were principal buyers. The better trend in the war news and reports of im- proved mill demand for spot cot- ton was factors behind the rise.

yet a peiple's army. It was I who first reminded m yfellow country men that if General Rommel had had the good fortune to be born on the British side of the Nohtr Sea he wold still be sergeant; indeed would probably now be retired sergeant, perhaps keeping a country inn.
 "T'he British Army has been ex- banded from a force of 150,000 reg ulars and 100000 territorials into a regular army of 3,500,000. But the kep positions are still held by men drawn from a very narrow circle. Their influence permeates right through all ranks. These leaders are brave, public-spirited and mean well. But they have not yet grasped either the technique or the nature of the present war.
 Brought up in the imperialist school, out of touch with the main currents of poplar feeling and opin- ion, they have been quit eincapable either in Whitehall or on the battle front of understanding 8 modern totalitarian war"
 As an example of the attitude of the high commands clique with in a class"-Lord Strabolgi cites the case of Malcolm Dunbar, who rose to be chief of staff of the Interna- tional Brigade in the Spanish Civil War and by his brilliant tactics won the Battle of the Ebro. Having proved himself a great leader and brilliant tactician, he joined the British Army at the outbreak of the present war and is still corporal in the tank corps.
 Let Strabolgi sees hope.
 Power is slipping from the hands of decadent section of the British ruling class. It's privileges are going with the loss of its power. The dis appearance of class privilege will enable the genius of the British rae to manifest itself on the field of battle."

STRABOLGI CITES BRITISH DEFEAT AND PLEADS FOR DEMOCRATIC ARMY Labour Chief of Lords Blames Military Clique
 For Consistent Record of Failures
 (By Lord StrabOIgi in Golfers Weekly

Special-Ch Charging that the Brit- is-1 Army has shown up badly in this war and has 8 dismal record of failures" because it is controlled by 8 "decadent section of the Brit ish ruling class" Strabolgi, Chief Labour Whip of the House of Lords, states in signed article in Golfers Weekly that victory can olny come with democratic army.
 "The British Army" Lord Stra- bolgi writes, "apart from many indi- vidual acts of bravery, has not shown up well in this war. Wherever 1t has fought on the mainland of Europe, 1t has been decisively de- feated.
 "If we leave out of account minor expeditions against the Vichy French, the British Army has two victories to its credit, against the Italians. With these exceptions. against both the Japanese an dthe Germans, the British Army has only chronicled dismal record of fail- ureS."
 Lord Strabolgi planes this record on the fact that the high command does not understand the war.
 This is a peoples war; he writes, but the British Army IS not

WAR WORKERS IDEAS SPEED
 ARMS OUTPUT
6X ANTHONY e. DE LORENZO United PFeNn Stan Correspondent

 Detroit, Aug. IA (UP)-Todays war workers is proving himself to Se Q reseurceful idea" man.
 Corporations which once relied almost exclusively upon high-priced engineers for methods of improv- ng production, now utilize the man at the machine for lunches on speeding output of war weapons, boosting efficiency and reducing scrap.
 General Motors Corp, which of- Gers workers war bonds and stamps for acceptable tips, received more than 15,O00 suggestions during a 60- day period and paid out more than S4O,O00 in awards to men and wom- sn in 53 plants throughout the country. Two GM employees each received the maximum award-a 91,OO0 war bond.
 3O9S Prove Helpful
 The Packard Motor Car CO, building aircraft and marine en- zines for the Army and Navy, has received 4,138 suggestions under it's 'Work to Win" program, 30 per cent of which helped to improve produc- ton efficiency. Merit pins are awarded workers whose ideas are accepted by the joint management labor committee at Packard.
 3. D. Kunkle, vice-president in charge of manufacturing for Gen. eral Motors, said the suggestion plan "has led to some substantial increases in production" The per- centage of good and useable sug- gegtionS has exceeded our expecta- tion," he added.
 The suggestions which drew one of the $1 900 war bonds at GM con- cerned simplification of the mach ming process on part for the Alli- son airplane engine. Another em- ploye produced an idea which saved a considerable quantity of cutting oil. A third worker suggested and built machine that has eliminated q bottleneck in the production of a unit used in the fuel supply system of airplanes.
 One Saving Equals Engine
 President George T. Christopher of Packard said his plant already has adopted IF worker suggestions for speeding output of war engines.
 Here are three typical cases" he said. "One worker-18 years with Packard-saved his country and its taxpayers more than enough to add another aircraft engine a month to its war schedule. A second em- plOye-just few years out of high school-developed process that in- creased the life of valuable cutting tool 300 per cent at cost of only 2S cents. A third worker turned in 8 shop design that raises efficiency and lowers costly scrap"
 Fun protection is given the Pack ard worker whose suggestion may prove patentable according to Christopher. Crude drawings rough ! sketches or semi-professional drafts often are submitted by workers to illustrate their suggestions.

 Bruno Pardee of New Haven won the best-played match of the day, winning 1-up from Norman Bou- cher, one of the golfing Boucher brothers of this city.
 Another Waterburian, J. o. "Os- sic" Gray of Chase Country Club, bowed to Robert "Knobby" Walsh of Bridgeport. the 1941 state amateur champion, by score of to 2.

President Of Chile To Visit United States
By DREW PEARSON

Washington, Aug. 14.-A lot of Latin-American goodwill states men have come to Washington since Pearl Harbor the presi- dent of Peru. the president of Colombia, the finance minister of Brazil, the foreign minister of Mexico, Venezuela, and many others. But by far the most im- portant of the visiting Latin American diplomats will be Presi- dent Rios of Chile.
 After considerable negotiation, in which President Roosevelt him. self took a hand, an official in- vitation is being sent to Rios and 1t is known that he will accept, probably arriving here in October.
 Importance of this lies in the fact that Chile is one of only two countries in the Western Hemis- phere which have not broken diplomatic relations with the Axis. President Rios forthcoming visit, therefore, indicates that Chile is veering toward a break, and that the break will probably come dur ing his sojourn here. Should Chile throw the Axis overheard, it will have very important effect upon Argentina, whose government has leaned toward the Axis although the great mass of the Argentine people are def1- nitely anti-Axis.
 The Chilean presidents plan to visit the U. s. A. is a real stroke for popular Chilean Ambassador Michels, as well as for the Good Neighbor policy of Sumner Welles and for FDR himself. Ambassa- dor Michels last month visited Chile and laid the groundwork for the trip. On his return to Washington he called upon Presi- dent Roosevelt for a scheduled five-minute conference. The President kept him for 35 min- utes, impressing upon him the i'm portance of Chilean-U. s. friend- ship and the further importance of severing Chilean-Axis relations. The invitation to President Rios followed soon, thereafter.
