eRt Of the University OF Cdhl0rhid
little time in East Prussia and met Eric Koch
several times.
He held the position then which APP
parently he holds today, head of the National
Socialist Party and governor of this some
what remote and lttle-visited part of Ger
many.
Koch is not Prussian. He vas moved
bv Hitler into this famous junker province
from his home in the Rhine country, or in
Westphalen.
When | made his acquaintance he was
about 40 years old. He was a middle sized
man, alert intelligent, and trimming with
enthusiasm for his party and for his Job.
He professed great vision of the future
of East Prussia. It's population, he said,
would be greatly strengthened by German
stock, so as to insure its position in the
Reich, and give it strong military defense
against the non-German peoples who almost
surround East Prussia.
BELIEVE his letter is authentic. Situated
j in a position of great responsibility in the
extreme eastern frontier of Germany, close
behind the fighting front of the German
armies, he has been in position superior TO
that of any gauleiter in the Reich, to know
the German officers and judge their aims.
He may by his letter have disclosed some
thing of great Importance which actually
exists
The agreement at Moscow TO turn Ger
man offenders over TO the courts of the
offended peoples means, if ii is carried out.
that great number of German leaders will
be condemned and executed.
| believe that the German armies and their
officer class will seek to avoid, as far as
possible, responsibility for Nazi crimes.
So far as the German soldiers are con-
cerned. it may be true that their behavior has
been such as ordinary military practice en-
joins. Even the French have referred TO
their behavior as Correct"
have no belief that the German army
intends to shield the National Socialists, or
suffer with them. The short dramatic and
effective way in which it can. in some degree,
clear itself of charges of collaboration is 10
declare the National Socialist Party and it's
leader the enemies Of the German nation and
turn upon them and crush them.
The chances that they may do this seem
to me to continue to improve.

An Editorial: The Detroit Election

n UR prime task is to work together and so
~ behave as to Danish the causes of minority
dissatisfaction.
An encouraging indication that the people
generally feel this way is contained in the
comment of R. j. Thomas president of the
United Automobile Workers, which organiza-
ton was solidy against Mayor Jeffries during
the campaign:
mayor Jeffries is the choice of the MAJ
iority of Detroit voters" Mr.. Thomas said
after the election. "He will receive the fullest
cooperation of the UAWCIO in meeting the
problems of the years ahead. hope the issues
which prompted the labor movement of Detroit
to oppose Jeffries will receive consideration by
him so that friction may be reduced and elm
mated. Unfortunately the campaign aroused
prejudices and bitterness which do our city no
credit. i urge all citizens, no matter who they
voted for to drop their partisanship and pitch
i'm so Detroit may fulfill it's obligation as the
nations chief arms center"
There is a manly and straightforward
statement Let it serve as model for all of
us to follow in the difficult months to come.

WASHINGTON Nov. Con
w tinuing yesterdays analy-
sis of the Hull-Stalin-Eden Mos
COW declarations without preju-
dice or prefermept:
The only promise of specific
postwar national system was
made for Italy. This declara-
ton obviously was drawn at the
instance of Russia.
Another off-hand promise of
independence was made TO Aus
tria. apparently because inner
reports have suggested a rising
anti-NaZi temper among Aus
trian soldiers, particularly those
stationed by the NaziS in Bel
GUM. or even Germany-the
states which Russia is likely TO
invade.
The Italian declaration starts
out by pledging complete eX-
tinCtion of fasciSm and Fasclsts
i'm Italy, thereby relieving Rus
STA of whatever suspicious she
may have had of our occupation.
Then comes the formula of gov
eminent, peculiarly worded, TO
provide Italy with a democratic
form of government.
EASCISTS are to be tried and
Il Jailed. the only class 10 he

of speech,
OF France. of course, nothing

DeGaulle, who has the COM
plete confidence of Moscow,
and other anti-Vichy elements,
including the purer democrats,
is left undetermined.
No suggestion that Rus 5 a
will Join us in the war against
Japan is contained in the dec
larationS. Indeed, the careful
wording implies the opposite.
1t pledges a united war only
against "our respective enc
mics" and cooperation only
against common enemies
HOWEVER, the declarations
II do pledge Stain to accept
the Roosevelt-Churchill Casa
blanca doctrine of unconditional
surrender. The only thing Stain
had given previously ON this
subject was in an order of the
day 10 the Russian army, pledg-
ing to seek unconditional surren-
der of the "Hitlerites," appar-
emily meaning not necessarily
Germany.
Unannounced, intangible re-
suits of the conference are what
pleased officials most. Hull has
established, for instance, an ave-
nue. of direct negotiation with
Moscow. which will not require
us hereafter to travel the Lon
don bypass.
CERTAINLY the big ( o u r
~ power pact sounded more
like him than the Russians or
Churchill.
The Italian formula sounds
more like Stain, while the
atrocities punishment promises,
of course, are those of Stain,
Roosevelt and Churchill.

THE most heartening aspect of De-
troit'S election was the extent Of the
vote.
Last month at the primary only 100000,
less than third of the city's registered voters,
bothered to turn out. In contrast to that
shamefully apathetic showing almost $4,000
persons voted this week. 4--l-A
1t was the second largest vote ever cast
here in a mayoral election, exceeded only IN
the 1887 election when 900 votes were cast
AS matter Of fact, when you consider
the many thousands of voters absent with the
armed forces the current election might almost
be deemed to have established a record in
voting.
That should be a matter of qualification
not only to the supporters of Mayor Jetfries
but to every citizen who cherishes the well
being of his community.
1T SHOULD temper the disappointment of the

candidate was beaten fairly in truly repre-

FAIR
ENOUGH
By Westbrook
PeeIer

THE election of Thomas A.
l. Aurelio to the miscalled New
York county supreme court,
Notwithstanding his association
with underworld racketeers and
his reputation by both the
Democrats and Republicans, is
neither surprising nor depre.-
sing in view of all the circum-
stances.
He was repudiated by the
Democrats only in the formal
sense but got their support and
their votes because, after all.
the man selected by the Ameriz1
can Labor Party as contras
provided no contrast at all. y
A few days before the cleo
ton, the New York Times.
which condemned Aurelio and
supported Matthew NJ. Levy,
the labor party's man, ran an
editorial which said in part:
mir. Aurelio's only defense
with regard to the Costello af-
fair II that he sought and ac-
cepted support from the pledged
'undying loyalty To a man OF
whose character and back
ground he had no knowledge
and about whom he did not
trouble TO inform himself.
"Tf Mr.. Aurelio could act with
this almost incredible blindness
on matter OF the first impOr-
lance 10 him, how may we ex-
pect him to act with regard tn
innumerabie cases I'm which he
has no personal concern"
DUT the Times might have
- said exactly the same of
Mr.. Levy. a union attorney who
had associated closely with
George Browne, a notorious
racketeer and betrayer of labor.
except that Mr.. Levy did not
solicit Brownies help in getting
the nomination, Browne being a
prisoner under sentence by
then.
1t is hard to see how any enc
could expect Mr.. Levy TO be any
more competent, informed or
discriminating in court, for he.
too. had proved 10 be disas-
trously bad judge OF Brownies
character.
ut will certainly be hard for
the public 10 believe that the
Tammany politicians who got
Mr.. Aurelio his nomination
were equally ignorant, equally
blind. equally babes In tho
woods regarding CostelIo's sctid
tiles and character" the Timex
said further. and / quote the
Times on this only because this
particular editorial best sums
up the arguments against Au-
relic that were offered in Levy's
favor by the American Labor
Party and the New Deal forces
generally.
