DIVIDE AND CONQUER

divide and Conquer, just pub
lished by the Office of Facts and
Figures and available without
charge, bears ominous warning to
Americas millions who, knowing
ly or unknowingly, are playing in
to Nazi hands. In a booklet re-
quiring less than an hour to read,
Uncle Sam presents a guide to
Nazi propaganda technique that
every single man, woman and
child should read.
The title of the booklet comes
from Hitler's propaganda aim.
Mental confusion, indecisiveness,
panic" Hitler has said himself,
"these are our weapons"
The whole story of the psyche
logical attack preceding the invas-
ion-and the strategy of the in
vasion itself are told here in grip
ping terms. The whole story is
here of the $3OO,OOO,OOO that Hit
Ter still spends each year on for
eign propaganda alone, of the
slick devices he used to corner the
markets of Central Europe only
to destroy them later, of the
screaming bombs used to shatter
the nerves of civilian populations,
of the tricks used by his parachut-
lists to panic the people of cities.
"An of his tricks are now be-
ing directed against us" one par
agraph in the booklet reports
"Our job today is one of individual
awareness in order to avoid falling
into Hitlers trap. Hitler's propa-
ganda wears a thousand false
faces. It never announces itself
as "Nazi." It appears where least
expected, and under the most in
nocent auspices, often turning up
as the latest funny story during
lunch"
ITO destroy our national unity,
create unrest in all groups of the
population, and defect us from
our major purpose-the defeat of
the Axis-Hitler is trying to set
capital against labor, white against
Negro, Catholic against Protest
ant, Christian against Jew.
"His strategy will follow no set
pattern. One line will be pursued
today, another tomorrow. But al
WAYS his broad aims will be the
same: to separate us from our
allies by arousing distrust of
them; to create friction within the
United States in order to divert
us from our true enemy-the

Empty Stocking Club toys to the
city's needy children.

'Hey," I said, What are you
doing here?"
"Aaaaaa" he said. Nothing !.
Nothing"
I went about my business and
when I left, I asked him again
GO on home" I said. "This is
Christmas. You should be home"
WELL" he said. IT figured
somebody ought to be around
here today in case some poor kid
was missed and didn't get any
toys from the Empty Stocking
club and somebody called up here.
Aaaaa! Never mind. Go on
home yourself"
Murphy" I said. Murphy !"
But I could only shake my head
and turn around and walk away.
I'll never forget, through all the
Christmasses of all my life, the
sight of that little Jewish boy,
sitting in that still, lonesome Of
flee all alone, on the morning of
the birth of Jesus Christ.
Well, we had our little party for
Murphy last night because he's
going to war tomorrow, and we
bought him a present but I'm
afraid we let him down a little
there. We didn't get it whole
sale.
But, so help us God, if anybody
or anything in this world hurts or
harms Murphy, We'll go over
there, anywhere, the people in
this office who have thrown him
out and cuffed him around and
cursed him out, and loved him,

 First Warning
 QThe first warming that an enemy craft was near the Swedish ship came when shell crashed into the No. 3 hatch, Two submarines attacked with shelltlre from both sides.
 As the crew left the ship, rope on the starboard lifeboat parted and eight persons, including one of the women, were thrown into the sea. All were picked up by Q lifeboat.
 There were "A persons, including the eight pulled from the water, In one lifeboat, and 10 in another.
 The submarines she1led the ship for 30 minutes, when 1t broke into flames. It burned for two hours as one of the submarines circled continuously. Later one submarine shelled 1t again and 1t sank at l a. m. last Saturday.
 Seaman Bob Anderson said those in his lifeboat were rowing toward one sub when their captain told them to stop,
 "He said, stop. We're now in Gods hands Whatever they are going to do, they'll do We were afraid they were going to shell us, too. But they ignored us and we were picked up Sunday afternoon at D. m. by the American freighter," Anderson said. TWO hours later the freighter picked up those In the other lifeboat."
 Those from the British ship es- capped in three boats and during the night they circled to keep their position, which they had given in their sos.
 "Friday morning we took food inventory and decided we had enough food for month" said Tom Evans, 19, . Welchman. "Then with each boat under sail we saw ship about two miles ahead. It was so clear we could see her derricks. said maybe 1t wasn't the right kind of a boat, and Chips shouted that was q bloody pessimist, and that any kind of boat was right one"
 The boat, however, steamed away.
 The British crew praised the gameness of 17-year old cabin boy Desmond "Tich" Howell, whose foot was almost blown away. He was carried from the sinking vessel by Jack Constable, and now is in others of the crew.
