WORRY OVER NEAR EAST

What varies Allied strategists is
the prospect of Nazi push against
the British in the near East-sim-
nltaneous with a drive against South
Russia.
British troops unfortunately have
not stood up we'll against Won
Rommel in Libya At ,one time
he was reduced to only thirty
tanks, and if the British were not
able to wipe him out then, things
don't look too optimistic for the
future.
Another black cloud is the pos
sibility of German naval activity
in the Mediterranean. U. S.
strategists consider it distinct
possibility that the big Nazi battle
ships, some of which escaped from
Brest this winter, may make a

 Under the new plan all residen- tial, house heating, kitchen heat ing, small and medium commer- cial and some seasonal residential meters will be read every three months instead of every month.
 MT. Jebb said, however, that cus- toners will continue to receive monthly bills based on either actual readings or average consumption The figure used for average bills will be based no consumption for the same month of tho previous year and the month previous to the date of actual billing.

Many Republicans realize after two years that Robert Hurley. present Governor of the State of Connecticut has done mans size job, a good job, and unlike Ray Baldwin when he was governor has stuck to it. They realize that these have been very trying times because of war conditions. They feel also that in two more years that their will be a presidential election like there was two years after Ray Baldwin was elected Governor and think that maybe Ray will spend his time as he did before travelling all over the coun- try trying to build himself up as a candidate for President in- stead of looking after the affairs of the State of Connecticut.
 They also realize that the great Jasper in Bridgeport can not coax enough Democrat votes away from Robert Hurley to surprise Ray as he did in 1888. Democrats and Republicans alike know that Robert Hurley is the proper war time Governor. He has proved it.

The Waterbury Democrat., 1942-09-30

wartime is not the important test. What is important is that our will lingness to submit to the exercise of centralized powers in time of war is at once the measure of our spa- triotism and our determination. AS patriots we do it solely that the means may be multiplied and the end be attained unhampered by any i division of effort.
 Yet, though we as people believe we are ready to meet the utmost de- mandS made upon us, we are still not making the total effort expected ] of us-that great organized effort only through which we can hope to triumph. Why? Is it because we do not even yet understand why we are fighting this war, and why this war is different from any other war we have fought?
 We are not fighting this war be- cause the Germans prefer 8 Na1 form of government, or the Japan ese are ruled by an Emperor, or the Italians choose Fascism as their form of government. And we are not l fighting for anything any other peo- pie possess. There is nothing they own that we are willing to fight | fcr-not an acre of land, not a pound of rubber, an ounce of tin, or out of any desire to impose our way of life on others. We are fight ing only for those things which we have, for the right to live our own lives in our own way. We are fight ing because everything we hold ir- dispensable to our peaceful, indivi- dual existence is threatened.
 For this war is not alone war to win Europe for the Germans, or Greater Asia for the Japanese, or some other territorial aggrandize- ment for the Jackals. It is militant revolution through which New Or- der is to be imposed or the world, and in which we should become slave people, working under totali- tartan regime and subject to mass deportations, reprisalS, wholesale destruction of property and the rela- tive happiness of death.
 How do we know this? Because this has been the fate of Norway, Denmark, the Netherlands, Belgium, France, Jugoslavia, Greece, Czecho- slovakia, Poland; because Hungary, Rumania, Bulgaria and Finland have been forced to support the New Order, whether they like it or not. We know that we, too, should be- come slave people because the innate character of the Axis military am- bitions is a total control over every people it conquers.
 We must, therefore. win a war in order to stop a Nazi revolution against the world order. For us, as for the Axis, 1t r. all or nothing; not for generation, not for life- time, but perhaps all or nothing for a century or more. The task at hand and the peril involved call for noth- ing short of all we've got--total ef- fort by all of the people.

 Two words, names of cities to
 llle. but to future historians they Win be reminders of Russian brav-
 ", courage and heroic defense which aided the Allies, including America, to win the greatest war in Hll history.
 opening at The Strand theater
 pday is a picture titled Moscow EtrikeS Back. It is masterpiece 9 war Standardization. Critics have Already ,ascribed it a high place
 rnong the classics of the present Struggle. Students of history, ad- Alirers of brave people and those Interested in viewing a marvellous picturization of a great struggle, have three days in which to visit the Strand theater.
 More than 100 motion picture Carneramen were assigned by the Soviet film industry to cover the Russian counter offensive last win ter in front of Moscow and have recorded some of the most stirring action scenes ever taken on the field of battle. The work of these cam eramen has been compiled into a feature length film, Moscow Strikes Back" which will have it's first showing at the Strand.
 At the risk of their lives, these canaeramen have caught the au- thentic story of war with all the speed and force of modern fighting machines engaged in battle, as well as the fanatical fury with which the Red army troops drove back the Nazi invader, retaking more than 500 villages in the Moscow area.
 Not all the lensmen were as- signed to the battle front; some covered tAe defense preparations in which Moscow prepared to defend itself from street to street and house to house; others were as- signed to guerrilla activities behind the Nazi lines and were dropped in these locations as regular para troopers.
 Moscow Strikes Back" has an English narrative, written by Albert Maltz and delivered by the famous Hollywood actor, Edward c. Robin son. which dramatically tells of the supreme effort of the Russian peo- ole to counter the German on- slateht.
 The film is an Artkino production and is released in the United States by Republic Pictures.
