Gamblers S Body Found;
Believed Buried Alive

BY the Associated Press.
THOMPSONVILLE, Conn, Sept
25.-The body of Samuel Bonelli, 81
of Thompsonville, identified by
Police Chief Walter J. Fleming as
a small-time gambler, was found
today in shallow grave In q
woods.
Medical Examiner Frank F. Simon
ton said the man had been shot
through the right cheek and ex-
pressed the belief the victim was
alive when buried.
Four boys tramping through the
woods, reached by a narrow rough
road discovered the body. Noting
what appeared to be a freshly dug
grave covered with branches and
believing it might contain the body
of an animal, the boys began tc
dig with tincans and found the
mans body few inches from the
surface.
Police said the boys told them
that the body was still warm.
Chief Fleming said Bonelli had a
police record and last appeared
in court in June when he was
convicted of keeping a gaming house
and with gaming. Bonelli was flnec

Resolution Presented
Seeking Immediate
Philippine Freedom
BY the Associated Press.


An administrations backed move
has been launched in Congress to
give the Japanese occupied Philip
pines immediate independence from
the United States.
Senator Tydings, Democrat, of
Maryland and Representative Bell,
Democrat, of Missouri introduced
Identical resolutions for recognition
of the islands as a self-governing ma
ton. Senator Tydings told the Sen
ate he had conferred with President
Roosevelt, Secretary of State Hull
and Manuel Quezon, President of
the Philippine Commonwealth gov
ernment-in-exile, and that all
agreed immediate independence
would be "salutary.'
He said the japanese intend to
offer the island independence"
through puppet government and
observed, II don't think many Fill
pinos will be deluded by that plan" !"
Mr.. Quezon called the resolution
the best, wisest and noblest meas
ure that the Congress of the United
States can pass at this time regard
ing the Philippines
1T is the reaffirmation of Amer
ica's policy which won the eternal
gratitude of the Filipino people and
because of which they fought and
are still fighting against Japan" he
said. "Filipinos will recognize this
step as the logical recognition of
their war record in the struggle
against Japan"
The Tydings resolution would
authorize the President to open ne
gotiations with the President of the
Commonwealth for proclaiming
Philippine independence within 30
days after Congress adopts the reso-
luton. The Independence Act of
1884 calls for the islands to become
independent July 4, 1946.
Mr.. Roosevelt, in a broadcast to
the islands last month, told the
Filipinos they would be given inde-
pendence "the moment the power
of our japanese enemies is de-
stroyed."
when the Filipino people re-
sisted the japanese invaders with
their very lives" Mr.. Roosevelt said,
they gave final proof that here was
nation fit to be respected as the
equal of any other on earth, not in
size or wealth, but in the stout heart
and national dignity which are the
true measures of people"

Control of Black Seu-

Sea littoral would be definite
gain for the Allied side.
Cites Effect on Turkey.
Then we must consider the effect
on Turkey of the recovery of Rus
sian command of the Black Sea at
the same time that British forces
are moving into the Aegean Islands.
If the first event happened with
out the second, ancient Turkish
suspicious of Russia might be re-
vived, but the two coming together
can only serve to increase Turk
ish feelings of security, and to rem
der less and less possible that
desperate drive through, Bulgaria
for the Straits of Dardanelles, which
has been the chief threat that Ger
many has been able to hold over
Turkeys head.
This situation may result in the
Turks opening the Dardanelles to
Allied shipping, a move which would
be Of little use were the Germans
able to move in and close the straits
again by force, but which-as soon
as that becomes impossible-may
make a great deal of difference not
only In the speed with which victory
may be achieved, but also in closer
relationships between the chief
Allied powers after the war.
The opening of a direct Medi-
terranean shipping route to Novo-
rossisk and Crimea ports would give
Britain and America a means of
supplying the Russian armies so
superior in capacity to the routes
now open to us as to beggar COM
parison.
Would Allow Joint Action.
Moreover, direct Anglo American
Russian cooperation in combined
operations against the Rumanian-
Bulgarian coast line would become
possible-a concentration of force
which would go far toward the ex-
pulsion of the Germans from the
lower part of the Balkan Peninsula
and the taking from them of their
Rumanian oil supply.
The problem of the invasion of
the Balkan Peninsula changes its
character completely, when it Is
altered from a drive up the Aegean
to the Vardar gateway alone. to an
operation in which such a thrust is
combined with landings on the
Black Sea coast and powerful
Anglo-American air support to the
Russian left flank in South Russia,
moving forward across the Dnieper
toward Nikolaev and Odessa.
This may be looking rather far
into the future. But it is to be
noted that all these advantages can
be- obtained without Turkish dec
laration of war simply by the open
ing of the Straits to Allied ships,
and that such a move on Turkeys
part Is largely dependent on the
military situation created in the
vicinity, which must be one in which
the Allies can guarantee Turkey
against any German reprisals.
This means not only command by
the Allies of the majority of the
Aegean Islands, but, first and fore
most, complete Russian command
OF the Black Sea. That is why
Novorossisk is important, and the
Crimea even more important in the
strategy of the immediate future.

he Nuzis and the Junkers-

listed, to an extent never possible
for the Junkers, the allegiance of
a vast number of little fellows who
have great deal to do with the
psychology of a people. These "nttle
men n'-schoolmasters, retailers and
burghers of all sorts-were ruined
by imitation. They turned their re-
sentiment upon the Junkers and the
peace which the Junkers accepted
at Versailles. These prejudices were
skillfully played upon by Hitler and
his crowd. The purge of 1884 was
as definitely directed against the
Junkers as against traitors in the
Nazi camp. Its purpose was to
establish Nazi, rather than Junker,
influence in the army.
The German schoolmaster under
Hitler has helped to build up two
delusions, an old one and a new one.
The old one was the concept of
lebensraum, which taught the ne
cessity of expansion, despite all the
facts that science and technology
had taught about how to support
more people on less land. The sec
ond delusion was the Hitlerian
dream of socialist dictatorship,
built on the ruins of the old Ger
man order, destined for world con-
quest and assuming the supremacy
Of pure race.
The hanging of Hitler and his
gang, coupled with complete dis
armament, is not going to reach the
roots of this false education. Nor
with Henry Wallace's proposal for
Allied supervision of schools. Per-
haps the old false ideas will die out
after Is years of watchful waiting,
with total disarmament and rea-
sonable freedom of trade. This will
be sufficient, at any rate, to bring
into the schools a new generation
of teachers.
Moltke said that the Prussian
schoolmaster won the War of 1866.
The Nazi schoolmaster has done
more than that. He has brought
his nation to the verge of ruin.

NEW YORK, Sept. 25.-More than
10000 employees of United States
daily newspapers now are serving
in the armed forces, a survey by
Editor and Publisher disclosed yes
terday.
The survey showed that 766 daily
newspapers had 2O,267 in the armed
forces, with an additional LOTS con-
tributed by the three major wire
services. The article added that ''it
is reasonable to assume the remain
ing 900 dailies have contributed an
equal number of men,"
OF the total, 1872 casualties thus
far have been recorded by the pub
lication. In addition, the article
said, 16 war correspondents have
been killed in line of duty.

Grafton, in which the Black Sea
fleet bore conspicuous part.
The next step is, of course, the
recovery of the Crimea, where the
rail communications of the German
garrison are now threatened by the
Russian advance south of the great
bend of the Dnieper, while their
sea communications are threatened
by the return of the Russian fleet
to NovoroSsiSk.
The Germans appear to be aban-
doning their Kuban bridgehead
after losing Novorossisk, and this
will expose Kerch to direct attack
across the strait. The south coast
towns-such as Feodosia-simul-
taneously will be exposed to at
tack from the sea. 1t is quite pos
sible that the Germans will not be
able to maintain themselves in the
Crimea this winter, and that we
may see the return of that pen
insula to Russian hands, which
means the movement of the Rus
sian fleet base back to it's original
location at Sevastopol.
Would Expose Rumania, Bulgaria.
This is important in several ways.
To begin with. it exposes the Black
Sea coasts of Rumania and Bulgaria
to descents by Russian seaborne
forces, either conmandos or larger
expeditionary corps, a fact which
must be borne in mind by the gov
ernments of those countries in con-
sldering their relations with the
Nazis.
1t will be an entirely different
situation than one in which the sole
military pressure comes from Berlin.
1t is all very we'll for the Rumanians
or the Bulgarians 10 be assured that
an Allied victory is inevitable, but
they are not always able to give
that fact due weight when, for
the immediate present, it is the iron
grip of the Wehrmacht which holds
them by the throat and there is no
prospect of help from any Allied
source save in the distant future.
1t is quite another matter when
their ports are within easy reach of
Russian striking power, coming
across sea dominated by the Rus
sian fleet. 1t may be said that the
Germans can deal with this by the
use of the Luftwaffe, but the Luft-
waffle has plenty to do already, so
that even to compel it to station
adequate air strength on the Black

French soldiers have measured
themselves against the Germans,
Is about ended. While the Nazis
are striving desperately to evac-
uate the island, the French, sup
ported by British and American
air and naval units, hope to kill
or capture the enemy remnants.
On the surface there is good
deal of cheering; or so it appears
in the carefully drafted official
communiques from Algiers. But
reports received from the tempo
rary capital of France indicate
that Gen. de Gaulle and his ever
increasing number of collabora-
tors in the armed forces intend
to place their own men in control
of the first portion of France to
be liberated through the efforts
of French military force.
1t appears that again there is
an effort on the part of politically
minded groups to jockey for
power and position. This time,
however. Gen. Giraud is on the
losing end.
De Gaulle in Ascendency.
The distinguished and able
generals officers are worried
about their future. They realize
that the younger and politically
minded Gen. de Gaulle is win
ming out and that regardless of
what the United States and
Britain may say about the French
people deciding who their future
leader will be, Gen. de Gaulle has
better than $3.50 chance of
installing himself as the tempo
rary ruler of France when the
country is liberated.
They are beginning to get ac-
customed to the idea that the
man who has their future in his
hands is Gen. de Gaulle and they
are ready to follow him.
This conviction is strengthened
by the fact that the Soviet gov
ernment has given Gen. de Gaulle
its unrestricted recognition. I'M
like the Washington and London
governments, Moscow has not
hedged about what the commit
tee represented.
Only this week the Kremlin
announced the appointment of
Russia's No. i diplomat, Vice
Commissar of Foreign Affairs
Andrei Vishinsky, as Ambassador
to Algiers. This was a particular
act of courtesy directed at Gen
de Gaulle.
When Russia's "star Ambassa-
doris" in Washington and London,
Comrades Litvinoff and Maisky,
were recalled, their places were
filled by obscure young officials.
But Premier Stain found it con-
venient to send to Algiers Com
rade Vishinsky, who is regarded
by foreign diplomats in Moscow
as being closer to Stain than
Molotoy.

Postwar Peace Plans
Need World Leaoue,
3 Advocates Agree
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Sept. 25.-Eight ad-
vocates of various postwar plans for
peace agreed last night at "clari-
f1cation" forum sponsored by the
New York Times that "the desire of
all is for an international organiza-
tion."
The agreement was expressed in
symposium after the speakers had
presented their views individually.
Hugh Gibson, former United
States Ambassador to Poland. Bel
gium and Brazil and collaboration
with former President Herbert Hoo
yer on the book. THE Problems of
Lasting Peace" said it was his and
Mr.. Hoover's view that "the great
est threat to any plan lies in pre-
cipitate action" and that a plan
should be evolved only with "the
greatest of deliberation after an
interim period of provisional peace"
e DR.. James T. Shotwell, chairman
OF the Commission to Study the
Organization of Peace, said he was
in accord with Prime Minister
Churchilrs proposed alliance be-
tween Great Britain and the United
States as the best means of secur-
ing lasting peace.
Would Broaden Churchill Idea.
But, he added, it should lead ulti-
mately to an international organ
ization covering national security,
economic and social welfare and
justice and the safeguarding of hu-
man rights.
Ruth Bryan Owen Rohde, former
United States Minister to Denmark,
outlined plan calling for con-
gress of nations, consisting of upper
and lower houses, chief executive,
supreme court of the world and a
police force international in scope.
Senator Ball, Republican, of Min
nesota, co-sponsor of the so-called
Ball peace resolution pending be-
fore Congress, advocated a world
organization, with the United States
as a nucleus, and a military force
ito make its rules of conduct bind
ing on would-be outlaws"
Representative Fulbright, Demo-
crat, of Arkansas said his resolution,
passed by the House Monday, was
not a "panacea" but rather "the
first small step in the process of
building a foreign policy" Criticism
that an international organization
would sacrifice national sovereignty
he said, was "a very red herring"
Urges World Military Power.
John Foster Dulles, chairman of
the Commission to Study the Basis
of just and Durable Peace, spon-
sored by the Federal Council of
Churches of Christ in America, said
an overall world organization must
have military power of its own.
Clarence K. STREET, founder and
chairman of Federal Union, said
the League of Nations failed because
of belief in absolute national SOW
ereignty," and because of mechanical
faults. He said similar mistakes
would lead to war again.
Ely Culbertson, author of the
World Federation plan, suggested
quota force principle" whereby
the United States would supply 20
per cent of the international force
and of the total world production of
heavy fighting machinery.

future of Europe than we have in
the United States. They seem
convinced that Russia will have
the greatest influence in Europe
after the war. They feel that 1t
is far more important to be in
the good grace Of Moscow than
London or Washington.
Moreover, the underground
movement in France, which has
been extremely active in oppos-
ing the Nazis and supporting
Gen. de Gale, is overwhelm-
ingly communistic.
The Communist groups have
been so well organized in the last
20 years that the Nazi invasion
has not been able to disrupt
them. To these adherents OF
Gen. de Gaulle many others
have been added. They we're not
Communists, but their desire to
crush the Germans brought them
together with their Communist
fellow countrymen.
After two years of intense suf-
fering they have come to realize
that the main hope for the future
rehabilitation lies in the closest
possible cooperation with Rus
sia. This does not mean that
they or Gen. de Gale and his
followers in North Africa have
embraced all the communistic
doctrines. But there seems to be
no question that they believe in
France which need not depend
in the future on the political
support of the English-speaking
countries.
This trend has been further
strengthened by an intense prop
aganda campaign, particularly
against the United States.
Anti-American Speeches.
American authorities in Algiers
were compelled recently to pro-
test to the French Committee
against two strongly anti-Ameri-
can speeches made by M. Puaux,
the resident general in Morocco,
and M. de Mention, the commit
tees minister of justice.
These speeches were made in
spite of the fact that North AT
RIGA has been liberated by the
American forces and in spite of
the fact that 1t is the British
American armies which will do
the most fighting to free the
French mainland.
Reports from Nazi-occupied
France indicate that in the last
two months the underground
population which has better ac-
cess to the starved and apathetic
population than radio propa-
ganda has been violently attack
ing American self -interested-
ness, selfishness" and lack of def
mite action.
While the Russians are being
described as the only would-be
savior of France the Americans
are being given an unimportant
role in the war as well as a black
eye as far as their future plans
regarding France are concerned
These facts are known to the
high American authorities but
there is little that can be done.
At present Gen. de Gaulle is
strongly entrenched in Africa
and before long he will have COM
plete control of the army with
Gen. Giraud remaining only its
nominal head. Despite these
prospects we have pledged our
selves to rearm the French
forces and the administration in
tends to keep it's pledges. Large
quantities of arms are being
rushed across the Atlantic to
equip at least 250,000 French
fighting men.

There will be a lot of households that won't

in spite of the serious fuel conditions, for
they have had us INSULATE their houses.
The way we do it, with Rock Wool, is neither
expensive nor inconvenient. Once our
Supervisor has gone over the house with
you he'll put our trained workmen ON the
job.
INSULATING is something that requires
skill-but we know how to do it-and you'll
be able to keep comfortable at a saving of
at least 259o in fuel But there is no time
to be lost-get our estimate, and let us get
to work.
Here are some other things which should,
and can, be done:
Inspect and tune-up the heating plant.
Caulk cracks and crevces.
Provide storm sash and storm DOORS
See that the roof is eak-proof; and the
basement damp-proof.
