Dresser Calls on U. ).
To Join Forces With
Soviet, India, China
Novelist Renews Attack
On British 'Snobs' in
Reply to Writers Boord
BY the Associated Press.

NEW YORK, Oct. 8.-Novelist
Theodore Dresser says he believes
the only way the war can be won
and freedom and peace assured for
every one lis by joining our forces
quickly with the people of Russia,
India and China"
The 71-year-old writer expressed
this sentiment in reply to the state
ment of September "a issued by the
Writers War Board denouncing him
for repeatedly asserting in Cana
dian interview that he would rather
see Germans in England than the
"aristocratic horse-riding snobs OF
the existing regime
In an accompanying note, Mr..
Dresser asserted that the board
without troubling to investigate the
facts concerning my remarks
proceeded to ally me with Hitler
and against the Allies
What I said was that it. due to
this titled and monied class, Russia
was defeated I hoped that Hitler
would attack England and abolish
that titled class" the note said.
Sees "Servility to Toryism."
Ordinarily, Mr.. Dresser said in the
reply he would have dismissed the
boards denunciation ''for its servility
to British Toryism" were it not for
the great danger of our relations
with the only peoples who have thus
far thwarted the Nazis in their effort
to conquer the world" and for the
fact that the statement was signed
by Pearl Buck
You, Pearl Buck, have travelled
far and wide through the Far East
and you have truthfully and graph
ically reported the results of our
policy of business as usual" Mr.
Dresser wrote. You also have seen
and truthfully reported the brutal
rule by the British Tories of the
colonial peoples of the Far East
Mr.. Dresser asked what essential
difference there was between Hit
ler's firing squad in the conquered
countries and Churchills whipping
post in India"
Anti-N -Nazi Record Recalled.
II did not say that I'd be delighter
to see Hitler rule over the English
people as a whole" he added. II
yield to no one in my love of our
country or that of humanity. My
record in the struggle against
Nazism is too clear to be repeated.
but I see in our continual tagging
along behind the British policy of
business as usual the ultimate de-
feat Of our country"
Mr.. Dresser declared I'VE must
repudiate the whipping post of
Churchill; also his perfidious inter-
pretations of the recent agreement
between the United States, England
and the Soviet Union on the OPEN
ing of a second front in 1922
II do not know of any record
when our country has welshed on an
agreement or explained it away by
an Interpretation such as that made
by Churchill to the effect that an
understanding had been reached
looking toward the opening of a
second front in 1912 to mean that
it doesn't mean that at all"

by Rex Stout and including among
it's members Pearl Buck, Carl Car

j. ). Stands 10 Lose
100000 Trucks
And 10000 Buses
Will Need More Rubber
To Stoy in Service.
Eostmun Declares
By the Associated Press.

BY the AsSoC1Ated Press.
A possibility that the least essen
tial OF the Nations 5000, 900 trucks
and $50, 900 buses must be taken out
of operation, unless more rubber is
allowed than was recommended In
the Baruch report, was seen today
by Joseph B. Eastman, defense
transportation director.
OF the 10000 buses, he said,
nearly 100000 are used to transport
school children.
Mr.. Eastman told the House APP
preparations Committee the printed
report released today disclosed, that
the Baruch allowance of rubber for
trucks and buses lis not as much as
half of the present consumption of
tires by these vehicles"
Even with the greatest conserva-
ton, he declared, they will have
to have somewhat more rubber than
is allowed for in that report.
Least lhpOE IdHt 70 OO.
"Of course, if it gets to such
a situation where there is not
enough to 60 around, if they should
only allow as much as they indi-
cate, or, rather, if Mr.. (William M
Jeffers, the rubber director, should
only allow as much as that, and we
could not reduce down to the limits
required and keep all of the vehicles
in operation, those which are of the
greatest need to the public at the
present time will have to be kept in
operation first and those which are
of the least importance will be dis
continued first" he added.
Turning to the ODT's general pro-
gram to keep trucks and buses op-
Grating, Mr.. Eastman, who appeared
in behalf of an additional appropria-
ton for his Office, said:
What we want to save is mileage
and to preserve these vehicles until
the new supply of synthetic rubber
can be created which will enable
us to go on something more like
the old-time basis. And unless we
do save those vehicles we foresee
a very perilous time so far as the
transportation of the country is
concerned, because this country has
gone way out of the horse and
buggy era into the highway auto
motive era as no country on earth
has DONE"
Million Operated by Farmers.
He said more than 1000, 1000 trucks
were operated by or for farmers,
about 100000 by private business
concerns and about 100000 by pub
lie carriers. He estimated that
trucks now are carrying, locally
and between communities, about Is
per cent as many tonmiles of prop
erty as the railroads"
On the Importance of buses, he re-
ported:
The public buses in the cities
are carrying about two-thirds as
much traffic as the street railway,
rapid transit and railroad commuta-
ton services combined. Out of the
LOTT cities with 10000 or more
population, 723 depend wholly on
buses for their local public trans
portation. The intercity buses are
performing about two-thirds as
much transportation, measured by
passenger miles, IS the railroads. "
He concluded:
IF we should lose this truck and
bus service the rail lines could not
begin to take it's place."

IS. Pfaus, assistant regional labor
representative of the WPB, who

firm doing important war work, and
asked that the court suspend action

konally called Judge Cover and re-
nuested him to delay action until
The WPB could investigate.
