placed no restrictions upon the
church they have arrested the for

Kaj Munk has been thorn in
the side of the Nazis since the be-

with an anti-Nazi theme and has
preached many sermons counseling
resistance against Nazi ideologies.
For some time Danish Nazis have
been clamoring for Munk's dismissal
as a pastor. The fight between the

$4,000 Germans were killed in the
last two British air raids on Berlin,
but they were treated with consid-
cradle reserve pending more au-

dead at $4,000, but executives of the

ure even though they published 1t.
The NYA Dagligt Allehanda used
the same estimate, but left obscure
the source of its information. It
added that in addition to the $4,000
reported killed, $4,000 persons were
homeless.
Mounting reports Of the damage
in Berlin included one that the
United States and British embassies

Subsidy Bill
Seen Doomed

Washington, Nov. &.-(UP)-The
administrations campaign to con-
tinue food subsidies as price con-
troll measure headed for the senate
today with the opposition confident
of enough strength to give 1t the
same sound thrashing it suffered
yesterday in the house.
Chairman Robert F. Wagner, D.,
N. Y, of the senate banking COM
mittee, said hearings on the anti
subsidy measure-passed by a 278
to 1T house vote-would begin next
Tuesday and continue for less than
week. He hoped debate could be-
gin by Dec. 10.
Pro-subsidy sentiment was lack
ing when the senate agriculture
committee canvassed the entire
sterilization field last week, but
many senators reported today they
were receiving floods of letters and
kilograms from various sections of
the country appealing for continual
ton of the subsidy program.
Despite this pressure and the ex-
pected battle from the administra-
ton, senate farm bloc leaders were
confident the house action would
be affirmed. The ban on subsidies
was written into bill extending
the life of the commodity credit
corporation for another IS months.
House subsidy foes ran up more
than sufficient votes to override
veto-which requires a two thirds
vote.
