criticism Of the divergent ideo-
logical purposes of our Allies; by
the lack of confidence in the news
of the war: by tiresome repetition
Of radio propaganda; by exceeding
powers granted by the Congress
and by the widespread conviction
that the purposes of our admins
tration are not alone to win the
war, but to use the war to change
fundamentals of American life
without submission to the people
or their representatives.
People Determined.
Despite all this, the American
people are united upon the de-
Tense Of America from attack and
are grinly determined to defeat
the Germans and Japanese. 1 be-
Ieve they are united upon secur-
ing lasting peace this time even if
they have to use airplanes to gar
rison it. No enemy need believe
because we exercise our blessed
right to debate, discuss and differ
between ourselves, that we are not
united upon his defeat.
On the military front we have
magniflcently courageous sons. We
can have every confidence in our
generals and admirals. Men and
officers alike are performing stu
pendous deeds. They merit every
thing we have got.
We have the blessing of huge in
dustrial equipment and managerial
initiative created in the mills of
private enterprise. 1t is equipped
with skilled workmen and farmers.
Failures in administration interpret
themselves in delay of the war; in
unnecessary hardship on civilians
and increased problems after the
war. But we will win the war.

LOS ANGELES, Jan. 15.-Betty
Hansen, II, former Lincoln (Nebr0
schoolgirl, was to undergo new cross
examination today at the trial Of
Enrol Flynn, film actor, charged with
three counts of statutory assault.
Miss Hansen asserted yesterday in
direct testimony and maintained
under questioning by Defense At
torney Jerry Giesler that Flynn at
tackled her at the Bel Air home of
Fred McEvoy, former British bobsled
racer, during party last Septem-
ber 27.
Denying she was film struck and
had pursued Flynn in the hope of
obtaining movie role, Miss Hansen
declared, The only ambition I have
is to fly"
After quarrel with her sister,
Mrs. Patricia Marsden, she left the
latter's Los Angeles home, she said,
and went to a Hollywood Hotel,
where man she met on the street
paid for her room and later gave
me money to eat on"
While working as a waitress In a
Hollywood boulevard drug store. she
added, she met young studio friend
of Flynn's who invited her to the
party. She was advised by the
youth, she said, ito play up to him
and drink with him" but denied
her testimony at Flynn's preliminary
hearing that she had been counseled
to permit any intimacies.
Asked if she had not said That
you thought Flynn was good
looking" Miss Hansen retorted with
an emphatic, mo, sir" looking dis
dainfully at the actor, seated at
the counsel table.
Becoming Ill after the actor gave
her drink at the party, she said,
she went upstairs at his sugses-
ton to lie down. There the al
legged assault occurred.
At the close of yesterdays session
in Judge Leslie E. Stills court, Miss
Hansen was led weeping to juvenile
hall, where she has been held since
shortly after the day of the party.
Flynn is charged also with two
counts of assault involving Peggy

Three u. 5. Agencies
Oppose Extension Of
Pleasure Driving Ban
OPA, Fuel and Rubber
Bureaus See No Hope
Of Relaxing Curb in Eost
BY the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press
Three Government agencies
dealing with mileage rationing
are in agreement that the ban
on pleasure driving in the East
should not be made Nation wide,
an Office of Price Administra-
ton spokesman said today.
He said, however, the OPA saw no
possibility of relaxing the prohibition
in the East, even for farmers and
suburbanites, until the petroleum
shortage is eased.
The decision Of the three agencies
the OPA, Office of Petroleum Ad-
ministrator and the OfIice of Rubber
Director William M. Jeffers-was
voiced following public suggestions
that rural residents were affected
unfairly in the East and should not
be cut of from normal recreation
which still remained available to
city dwellers who could use mass
transport systems.
1T simply isn't possible to LIBERAL
lie the pleasure driving rule in any
respect until more petroleum is
available for the East" the spokes-
man said.
Earlier in the week Charles F.
Phillips, OPA's director of auto
motive supplies, said relaxation Of
the ban might follow the winter
heating season, but that no official
decision had been made.
The OPA spokesman declared
there was no idea of making the
prohibition country wide. To do so,
he pointed out, would be false deal
ing" with the public, which was in
formed that the action was neces-
STATED solely by the petroleum sup
ply situation. OPA has no interest,
he added, in taking such step to
conserve rubber, since that is a de-
cision which would have to be made
by Mr.. Jeffers, who said last week
he saw no present necessity for ex-
tending the pleasure driving ruling,
though he admitted he might have
to revise his opinion next summer
if there is sharp upturn in traffic
to ball parks, beaches and holiday
places.

One Small Voice BY John K;eron
The Arts and Sciences in Time of Wur

Neither snow, nor rain, nor heat,
nor gloom of night" can halt the
artistic impulse or daunt the philos-
opher. All times and all places fur
nish food for thought to the eager
student who is determined.
To follow knowledge like
sinking star. Beyond the utmost
bound of human thought.
In short, in the arts-or that
wider field called the humanities-
a determined student can make
progress without such help as COL
lege training might have afforded
him. 1t is not so with rare excep-
tionS) among the sciences. A man
may be born poet or musician
in a manner of speaking anyway,
the old Romans said: "Poeta nasci-
tur, non fit'D but it takes training
to make civil engineer, an expert
chemist or a doctor, who removes an
appendix as calmly as he winds his
watch.
This training, or large part Of
it. begins in colleges and univer-
stiles. The sciences need that. The
arts, more independent thurrosr for
our sideD, can go forward If all the
academic halls of the world are
closed to them.
We Respectfully Submit.
One shining example in a simple
field will be offered, the field of good
writing. The nominee is Abraham
Lincoln. Here was man who
wrote practically impromptu - he
scribbled it down as he was making
the railroad journey to Gettysburg
the immortal Gettysburg address.
Edward Everett, who made a
studied speech of thousands Of
words on the same occasion, was
one of the few who recognized i'm
mediately the imperishable honesty,
solidity and artistry of the 268 words
that went into the Lincoln classic.
When Lincoln wrote his second
inaugural address-another magnif-
icent human documen-he included
near the end:
"Fondly do we hope, fervently do
we pray, that this mighty scourge
of war may speedily pass away. Yet
if God wills that it continue until
all the wealth piled by the bonds
mans $50 years of unrequited toll
shall be sunk, and until every drop
of blood drawn with the lash shall
be paid by another drawn with the
sword, as was said 5000 years ago,
so still it must be said that the
judgments of the Lord are true and
righteous altogether"
This is great writing Since this
country was founded we have had
Presidents who were graduates Of
famous colleges and outstanding
universities, but with malice to-
ward none, with charity for ALL" it
is respectfully submitted that the
finest writer in presidential history
was Abraham Lincoln, whose formal
instruction was restricted to q total
of about IL months spent in such
log cabin schools as he found in the
wilds of Ohio q little more than a
century ago.

The broadcast came on the heel,

shattered by the wonderful valor OF

But the program for the German

twice to soldiers who see no sense
in holding on
Usually the German broadcasts

play familiar melodies and transmit
messages to the soldiers from rela-

The special broadcast. however,
had only a short musical prelude
before the preaching began.
Personal wishes are of no ac-
count" the soldiers were told, ac-
cording to owl. ''1t is up to the
soldier to carry out orders in
spirit of blind and unquestioning
confidence.
80 There is saying which
has now become almost second ma

position and he will cope with it,
1t is our job to obey"
The objects of the Berlin broad

they have penned in front of Stain

ed to take in supplies to these

avenue of communication they now
have.
There were reports yesterday from

German officers were being taken
