hour session marked by loud
speech-making that could be
heard through closed doors out
In the Hobbies.
Marcantonio wanted to be a
member of the judiciary group
because of his legal background.
Southerners, and a scattering
of others, protested vigorously.
Chairman Summers (D-Tex) of
the judiciary committee, a
leader of the opposition, said the
Marcantonio assignment was
supposed to be a political pay
off" for help the New Yorker
claimed to have given the Demo-
cratic Congressional ticket in
New York last November.
There's a definite upsurge OF
Democratic impulses in this
country" Summers told report
ers. I'VE cannot afford to be
making this sort of political
deal. 1t is time for Democrat
to play the role of statesman
If the Democratic party is to
hold it's position of power it will
be through the exercise of states
manship and not through polit-
ical deals"
Rep. Starnes of Alabama, a
member of the Dies committee
on un-American activities, an
other Marcantonio opponent,
read to the caucus list of al
legged Communist Front organi-
cations with which he claimed
the New Yorker had been a
member at one time or other.
It was Starnes who interpret
ed the caucus action as averting
"break in the party and said
it would result in more united
and harmonious party relation
ship SO vital and essential in this
hour of history"
In his statement, Marcantonio
said:
II am not at all discouraged. |

she is only 16, yesterday related
the incidents of weekend
cruise in August, l94l, aboard
the actors palatial yacht Siroc-

twice had intimate relations
with her. Charges against Flynn
also involve l7-year-old Betty
Hansen.
It was after Saturday eve-

Catalina island, some 20 miles
off the Southern California
coast, Miss Satterlee said, that
the yachting party, consisting OF
herself and another young wo-
man, Flynn and friend, Buster
Wiles, returned to he Sirocco,
and retired for the night.

LETTERS FROM HOME

Douglas Southa Freeman, in Lees Lieutenants, spoke of the morale of the soldiers of the Con federacy
 Usually, if the soldier despaired, it because he did not get letters from home else it was be- cause those letters told of sickness and misery When more often happened, he endured cold without complaint and short ratons without gruin- bling, he had in his pocket courageous message from his wife mother sweetheart"
 Human nature is the same Undoubtedly what applied to the soldiers of the South applied to the soldiers of the North. They, too were cast in the depths if they did not get letters from home or if those letters sad they, too were inspired and full of hope when letters from their wives or mothers, sweethearts.
 So it was 80 years ago, it is with soldiers of today. Many of them great-grandchildren of the soldiers who wore the blue and the grey It is said the art of letter writing has declined but letters from home, bright and cheerful are still mighty force in keeping the morale of the soldiers and the sailors There should be note of anxiety or of grief in them.

nation regarding the property they insured, such as cargoes, ships, ni- trate plants, etc.
 So at the urging of the State Department, Armando Hamell, head of Chile's Reinsurance Bank, ar ranged to cut out all dealings with Axis insurance companies and deal only with U. S.-British companies.
 But after this was arranged, British insurance companies took the lead in hiking rates, cutting out commissions, and refusing to turn any business back to Chile. American companies followed the British lead They no longer had any competition, didn't have to meet lower Axis rates, made the most of their monopoly
 No wonder Armando Hamell in Santiago has been burning up the telephone to New York telling friends what he thinks of the State Department and British American business.

Gas Attack Charges
CNew York Times


 Japanese charges that Americans have used cant Most important possibility of course, that the Japanese are throwing up smoke screen against the plans which they themselves may have to use future.
 Although they inhuman and cruel in their battle methods and in spite of the fact that many times in the past they have flouted all international rules of war the Japs have shown curious psycho- logical inclination to beg pardon" for certain of their actions They took pains to explain in detail reasons for murdering American survivors of the Tokyo raids. They scrupulousy refrained from de- claring China that they could take ad- vantage of peacetime legal echnicalites. Now it is possible that they setting the stage for gas at tack-a trick they have used several occasions in their war with China
 Americans troops, of course, did not gas in the Attu operation--the of which still is clouded by rules of censorship. But by formally making the charge military leaders of Nippon open the door for possible retaliatory raids This pre- lninaly excuse-n reality based on a lie-would be sufficient reason in the Japanese mind, for launch ing poison gas offensive They believe other na- tionS of the world would the situation in the light.
 For all this mental preparation, however, it is doubtful if Japan will gas. She knows too well the dangers of retaliation Just Hitler fears to launch any such offensive-as did the Kaisers men quarter century ago-so the Npponese see our growing air power as constant threat against Tokyo As air power increases with it's promises of complete world domination, does liability to enemy gas attack decline.
