He declared that we already car
see two social theories emerging.
"OrS philosophy would throw
the entire burden on the govern
ment. That means the dole and
the socialization of industry. The
other theory is to let private en-
terpriSe continue to function and
provide employment by producing
needed goods for ourselves and the
rest of the world. That is the
American way and will produce
decent standard of living for all"

reported for the first time that
important Nazi armored elements

Imperial armored forces engaged
the Germans in a heavy battle and
threw them back. The engage

tank clash of the offensive.
The Axis still was taking eau

Berlin claimed that British tank
losses thus far had risen to BOG

the British had been beaten off in

to preserve harmony.
The gathering was announced
here today by Senator Carl F.

who will be the host.
The lawmakers were expect
ed to discuss choice of presi-

angle for choice committee as

The details were related to-

Heading the surgical staff"
of amateurs was a chief phar-

1T was operate or certain
death, for the patient had a
temperature of 106 degrees"
Hoskins wrote. ut took us two
and one half hou.j and now the
patient is convalescing in great
shape"
The lieutenant said "You
know, we. have experienced
many a rare event in this last
year: bombings, depth charges,
torpedo fire and all the like
but one of the rarest yet re-
corded out here was one that
took place on board our little
home. Yes sir, the mysteries
never cease. Our pharmacists
mate, plus the executive officer,
myself ant. two machinist's mates
performed a successful append
ectomy.
Eyes stree, there's one for the
records. The only one of us
who had even seen an operation
performed was the pharmacists
mate, but the patient h I'd a high
temperature and it was either
operate or certain death. So we
operated. performed the anes-
thetic and encouraged the doc
and the executive officer along
as they were doing the actual
cutting and digging.
