Firms and Nazis Claim
Sinking or Damaging
OF Il Soviet Subs
HeIsinki Says Only One

Through to Baltic
b the Associated Press.

BERLIN From German Broad
casts), July 10.-Seven and perhaps
eight Russian submarines have been
sunk and at least five others seri-
ously damaged by German and Fin
nish air and naval attacks in the
Baltic in the last two weeks, the
German radio last night quoted a
special Finnish bulletin as an
nouncing in Helsinki.
The Soviet submarines had at
tempted to break through the Gulf
of Finland to the Baltic, but only
one submarine was successful, the
bulletin was quoted as saying.
(The Soviet communique issued
early today indicated there had
been new Red fleet submarine
operations in the Baltic, saying
officially that "our ships in the
Baltic Sea sank two enemy trans
ports and tanker OLA total dis
placement of $4,000 tons.~
The Finnish announcement broad
cast by the Berlin radio follows:
During the past two weeks the
Soviet fleet displayed remarkable
activity in the eastern part OF the
Finnish Blight. Without regard te
losses the enemy tried to break
through to the Baltic with his sub
marines, but only one OF them has
been successful.

Ever since the announcement last
December that Hitler had assumed
the military leadership of his armies
following the dictates of his in
tuition there have been recurring
rumors of drastic shake-ups in the
Nazis' top military command.
The replacement of Marshal Won
Brauchitsch, when the Germans
were stalled before Moscow and be-
ginning to feel the terrible hard
ships of the Russian winter, has
been the only major shift officially
announced, however.
Rumors of Marshal Won Brauch-
itsch's reinstatement to Hitler's good
graces, if not to his former high po-
sition, have been recurrent.
Reports reaching Switzerland from
Germany last March indicated that
Hitler, apparently convinced that he
could not direct his war alone, had
summoned Marshal Won Brauch-
itsch and others, at least for con-
sultation.
At that time, Germany's high
command probably was laying out
plans for the great offensive which
her armies now are putting into mo.
ton.
Another report in London last
May, attributed to "a responsible
source with unusually reliable In
formation on affairs within Ger
manv. said A. proup of Hitler's gen.
erals, headed by Marshal vor
Brauchitsch, had warned him they
would try to set up their own plar
If his 1912 Russian campaign failed

accepted the challenge and namee
Marshal Won Brauchitsch as a mem
ber of the supreme command.

British Paper Says
By the Associated Press.

LONDON, July 10.-The Daily
Mail published a report today
that Adolf Hitler had called back
his ousted army commander in
chief, Field Marshal Walther Won
Brauchitsch, yielding to the in
sistence of his high command.
There was no confirmation of this
report, which came from the news

who said it was brought by neutrals
arriving in the Swedish capital from
Berlin.
Marshal Won Brauchitsch, who
engineered most of the Nazis' con-
quests, was supplanted as COM

The Daily Mail report said he was
back again, directing the general

Ne1us From Dogdon1
Notes on Variety of Subjects of Interest
In Washington and Vicinity
By X. r. Taynton.

Lesser clubs may cancel their
shows for the duration, but Morris
and Essex, which omitted its 1912
show, has applied for date in l943.
This should be a morale booster for
those kennel clubs which have cam
celed in blind panic, following the
example of others which have
legitimate reason for such action.
Morris and Essex is in the midst of
the heavy defense industry area and
had reason for its action. Other
clubs Cancelled because they had
armory shows and the armories were
no longer available for civilian uses.
But some clubs are cancellng be-
cause their personnel have cold feet.
These clubs will undoubtedly follow
the leaders back on the show band
wagon. England restricted the ac-
tivities of It's kennel clubs shortly
after the war, but the value of dog
shows as recreation and morale up
holders has been recognized IN that
country and the dog show Is again
expanding there.
Scaremongers and enemies of dogs
are spreading tales about food
shortages for dogs and the necessity
of destroying countless pets. Such
tales are entirely unwarranted by
the facts. If the local pound is
taking in an unusually large number
of strayed and abandoned animals,
doesn't it do so every summer?
Hasn't this column devoted space
every August and September for 10
years about the heartlessness OF
summer vacationers who abandon
their pets when vacation ends?
1t is not because of inability to
support their dogs that these dogs
| are deserted. From all over the
country reports come in that dog
sales are better than they have been
for years More puppies are being
sold and better prices are being re-
ceived for them than has been true
in some time. The Washington area
is enjoying a particularly brisk boom
in dogs. People are not buying new
dogs at good prices merely to destroy
| them.
AS for the food shortage. 1t Is
nothing to be alarmed over. There
is a shortage of canned dog food
which is all to the good as far as
J the dog is concerned. But, dried
and dehydrated dog foods are avail

able in almost infinite variety as
almost any kennel owner can tell
you And fresh meat, packed ex-
clusively for animal feeding, is not
only available in any quantity, but
is far cheaper than butchers meat
packed for human consumption and
is probably more nutritious for the
dog Nor would this meat be used
for human consumption In this
country-it does not affect food sup
plies for people in any way or degree.
The Gordon Bartons have taken to
drinking nine cups of coffee each
for breakfast. The reason? One OF
their boxers got into the china cup
board and broke all the coffee cups.
Now they have to take 1t in the
demi tasse size. This tale would
sound better if the Bartons were still
breeding bulldogs.
If proposed ruling is accepted at
the September delegates meeting of
the American Kennel Club amateur
handlers will be barred from show
ing the same dog more than three
times in calendar year unless the
dog belongs to him or member Of
his immediate family. No more
friendly exchanges of services if this
ruling goes through. No more I'D
like to show this dog but can't make
the coming shows. How about your
taking him to such and such a
circuit and I'll help with the ex-
| penses?"
From now on, the dog goes with a
licensed professional handler or he
stays at home The show loses the
entry and the owner loses the pleas
ure of having his dog shown Nor
does the professional handler always
| gain by the new arrangement, fol
| if the owner were able to afford the
$40 per show plus expenses charged
by the handler, he would probably
have sent his dog that way in the
first place and taken advantage oi
the presumably more expert show
manship. Instead of keeping dog
shows more amateur, this ruling is
very likely to turn it into a purely
! professional business.

Bv Edmond Henderer.

This weeks lobbyist, Arthur C..
Aston, has one thing in common
with last weeks, they both studied
subjects planned as their life work
and both have followed these inter
ests purely as hobbies.
Mr.. Aston's interest in his avoca-
ton dates back 20 years or more.
He planned his college course with
the intention of becoming a pomolo-
gist zone who practices the scientific
cultivation of fruit trees). Such a
course laid great emphasis on botany
and microscopy.
When he, left school Mr. Aston
surveyed the field and found that
things were dull in his profession, SO
he took a Job with the telephone
company in technical capacity
Since he did not follow his pre-
ferred line professionally, he turned
to it as hobby, pursuing the allied
line of chromosome morphology.
Chromosomes are minute bodies in
the nucleus of a cell and play an
important part in heredity. Nor
phology is the science that deals
with the form and structure OF
plants and animals, as contrasted
with physiology, which deals with
functions or life processes. In order
to carry on these studies he has
grown his own specimens, which
included planting, tending, pollinat-
ing and cross-pollinating (betweer
related species) of his material.
Much special, and sometimes ex-
pensive, equipment is required tt
make these studies. Since Mr.
Aston felt that he could not afforc
to buy all of these items, he ha:
made a great many OF them. All ol
his products have a factory made
appearance, which suggests the pos
session of a completely equipped
shop. Such is not the case, however
They have all been made with thl
