lions may De IN 1ull SWING TO SUD-
ject GERMANY and the occupied
lands to all-out day and night
bombardment.
The bombardment would be fol-
lowed at the earliest possible mo-
ment, it was clear, by moves to
open a second land front against
Germany.
From the French frontier came
revelation that the two spokesman
of the parliamentarians of the third
republic still were fighting for the
France which existed before the
Germans broke the French army in
June, 1910.
Edouard Herriot and Jules jean
neney placed Marshal Henri Phil
ippe Petain and Pierre Laval on
notice that any effort to swing
France into the war beside the
Nazis would produce "convulsions"
"a thinly yelled threat of revolution
against the Vichy regime.
CRISIS GROWING
The French declaration came at
moment of growing crisis within
France where the Vichy regime ap-
peared to be trying to steer popu-
lar resistance to Nazi methods and
the increasing weight of British
and American air attacks.
A sharply different reaction was
revealed in dispatch from Mos
COW which frankly expressed Soviet
resentment and disappointment at
what they regarded as insufficient
aid by Britain and the United States
in relieving German pressure on the
Russian fighting lines.
The Moscow dispatch made plain
that deep divergence of opinion
appeared in the discussions between
Prime Minister Winston Churchill
and Josef Stain regarding the con-
duct of the war.
1t seemed possible that prompt
Inauguration of an Anglo-American
air front over Europe, followed by
land action, might go far to dispel
Russian bitterness.
WARN PETAIN, LAVAL
Speaking in language which was
notable for its eloquence and fer
vor, Herriot and Jeanneney solemn
ly warned Marshal Henri Philippe
Petain and Pierre Laval against any
attempt to pull France into the war
against her former allies and at
the side of Nazi Germany.
1T is impossible" they said, that
liberty will die in the country of
it's birth"
If without authorization of par
lament %ou try to draw France
into war against our allies-which
you yourself declared honor for
bids we, by this letter, protest in
advance in the name of national
sovereignty" the statement declar-
ed.
1t was noted tllat the phrase en-
ployed was "our allies"-a plain
indication that the parliamentar-
ians considered France still bound
by her treaty of alliance to Britain
and others of the United Nations.
The Vichy government, obviously
spurred by the Germans, was max

How Times Change
Time was when youngsters played
cops and robbers with all their
might.
Then they began to play at being
airplane pilots in hot pursuit of
the enemy. The "aaah, aaaah, aaah"
they used 20 initiate the sound Of
the airplane motors almost drove
adults mad.
Now that's changed somewhat.
The youngsters iar and wide are
playing commando raid.
Leave it to the young 'uns to pick
out something glamorous and bit
on the wild side.
To be honest with -ou, a COM
mando raid is about the only thing
in this war that RR can under

fighting is beyond us but a good

OPEN LETTER

The accusation and the questions
we're included in an open letter
Small wrote Councilman Moore in
which he said Moore had promised
to vote for Small's appointment as
city treasurer and at council
meeting held later had not kept
his promise.
In a statement to the press Moore
said Wednesday,
I'm sorry Charlie was hurt in
the deal. I received the letter but
disregarded it because it was not
based on fact. 1 had decided to
ignore it."
Small, in his letter, said Moore
stated he would vote for Smalls
appointment if Small would see the
other councilmen and get two more
of them to vote with him. He then
accused Moore of not making his
stand clear at a regular council
meeting Aug 10 and causing post
ponement of action until Aug. 26,
Small said that on Aug. 20 Mayor
Robert Hatton told him that if
Moore had made his position clear
before the Aug. 10 meeting he, Hat
ton, would have voted with Council
men Wesley He'll and Charles Brat
ton for Smalls appointment, MAX
ing it unanimous as Councilman
H. w. ,Fawcett was absent. Small
said that Fawcett told him if Hat
ton voted for Small he, Fawcett,
would also.

ted to Bob. No chance of compro-
mise. I'll HAVE to string with Bob

Then. said Small, Moore voted
against Heil's motion and seconded
Fawcett's motion.
Small concluded his fiery letter
by saying that Moore confessed his
impotence as a city councilman eX-
cept as to keeping a man from oc-
cupying his chair at the council
table.

In answer to the question. What
Is Salvation?" the Rev. DR.. R. Paul
Schearrer, pastor of Takoma Park
Presbyterian Church, said yesterday,
"the basic idea is deliverance. When
the life of man was conceived of as
merely physical existence, then the
greatest blessing of God was pos
terity and long life. When, however,
mans life is conceived of as COM
munion with God, then whatever
separates him from God is sin, and
salvation is deliverance from its
guilt and power and restoration of
the broken relationship between
God and man.
1T begins with repentance" he
continued, mans desire to forsake
his sin and turn to God. 1t con-
tinues as an act of grace and love
on Gods part and as trust and
faith on mans part. 1t is sealed
with mans consistent obedience to
the divine will. Our daily walk
must henceforth be a walk with
God.

creed" DR.. Schearrer said in con-

Accomplishment

After two years of serv-
ice and accomplishment as
head of the Newark Feder-
alton of Labor, Emerson l..
Fishbaugh gives up his seat
on the rostrum to Ross
; Ayers, member of the
Glassworkers' union.
Labor should be proud Of
the progress made under
Mr.. Fishbaugh's reign. For
the first time in history
they have a home of their
own, the new Labor hall in
7I2 Church street. 1t is
one of the finest Labor as
semblies in the state of
Ohio. While it was through
the cooperative efforts of
members of the affiliated
unions of the Newark Fed
GRAFTON of Labor that the
feat was accomplished, it
took initiative and leader
ship to bring the project
through to completion. Of
ficers and trustees of the
Federation worked whole
heartedly with Mr.. Fish
baugh to accomplish this
end.
A number of new char
ters hang on the walls of
Labor hall, testifying to the
organizing of the morgan
lied that others might reap
the benefits of collective
bargaining, making for
higher living standards and
3 better citizenship.
With the coming year we
are confident that further
progress will be made un-
der the capable leadership
of President Ayers, who
made it plain during his
first meeting as presiding
officer, that he possesses a
rare understanding of the
work ahead.
Delegates to the Fedora
ton have chosen wisely in
Ross Ayers, and
\ are confident that the
Labor movement in Newark
will gain new momentum
through his efforts, for the
benefit of all.

Public Urged
To Aid Campaign
Against Paralysis

Revealing this week that dur
ing 1941, 487 cases of infantile
paralysis were listed in Ohio
alone, A. B. Jones, general chair
man of the Fight Infantile Pa
ralysis campaign in Licking
county, said that he believed this
information should give tagging
ticket sales added impetus. This
figure boils down to a ratio of
IL for every 100000 citizens in
the state.
For a second time in success
sion of three heavy epidemic
years the number of reported in
fantile paralysis cases in the
United States has topped the
5000 mark, continued Mr.. Jones.
President Roosevelt will be-
come 60 years old on Jan. 80,
and he has again granted the use
of his name and birthday in this
campaign, for a Diamond Jub-
lice celebration. The dance will
be held in the Elks club and
tickets are now on sale at $500
per couple.
1t is emphasized again that so
per cent of all funds remain in
Licking county to fight the dis
ease here and the balance is sent
to the National Foundation for
research and relief work.

In an able manner and sincere
directness Winkler delivered his
message to a hushed and atten-
tive audience. The question and

tremely enlightening and we'll

Before concluding Winkler an
nounced that this government
has given permission for the
formation of a Liberty Legion
now being formed of Germans in
the United States for the pur-
pose of overthrowing Hitler, and
claimed already a membership of
$4,000. We should have this
privilege and the right to die

what the chances were for

pie.

German he wants to be free, if
to two Germans, there is silence,
if there are three or more in

Winkler, there is today over
