THIS IS AMERICA' THEME OF PAGEANT
27 Nationalities to Be Rep. resented in Brotherhood
 Weeks Special Program

Twenty-seven different national ity groups have been invited to par- ticipate in pageant "This Is Amer ica,' to be presented February 28, as a feature event in the Race Re- lations and Brotherhood Week, sponsored jointly by the national councils of Catholic, Protestant and Jewish groups. It was decided last night, at meeting of representa- tives of the various groups at the Central Y. M. O., A., that the loca- tion of the pageant will be announced after a committee meeting next Thursday evening at 7:30. ..
 Thomas s. Smith, general chair man of the program, said today; waterbury, an industrial center, represents a virtual melting pot of nationality and racial groups. It is therefore particularly fitting that Waterbury present this pageant as demonstration of American citi- zenship."
 Members of the executive com- mittee for the program include MT, Smith, chairman; Mrs. Francis O.. Ayres, Joseph J. Gaber. Joseph B. Kushlis, Patrick J. Wallace, Walter Angle, Mrs. Thompson Platt, and Mrs. Leila Alexander. s...

 Book donations to the nearest local public library are encour- aged, for this will save time and effort for those who transport the books. Library locations can be learned from the telephone direc- tory or the local newspaper.
 In waterbury, the Bronson 'li-. brary on Grand street and its branches in WatervNle, Brooklyn and Baldwin street are the prin- cipal receiving stations. .s
 For those who cannot carry their books personally to the h- braries, however, others means are available, In New York city, for example, Borden and Shemeld drivers are picking up bundles of books, along with the morning milk, and taking them to the nearest libraries. All over the country bakers, tearnsters, depart l1ient store drivers and others are combining book collections with their regular deliveries. In many communities patriotic youngsters are making door-to-door can. vases and wheeling their book accumulations in kiddie!cars and wagons to the libraries. Collec- ton boxes placed in stores, thea- ters and other public places are filling up rapidly.
 - The business of giving books to our fighting forces is becoming a huge Our Town" project every where. It's the sort of community effort in which everybody delights to take part. The local libraries are the key centers of this effort, and anyone who takes his books there personally helps just that much more to speed good books on their way to our men in the armed services.

RED ARMY SEES
 VICTORY AHEAD.
Generals to Privates COn- fident War End Only

Limited Press stafr correspOndent)
 With the Russian Army Driving on 'Rostov, Jan. 19 - (DelayeO = (U.P) = Red Army men from gem erals to prtvates are confident that victory is only a matter of time.
 Their victories on six major fronts have naturally inspired them. But even the privates have an as- tonishing awareness of military realities and realize the extent of the job they have to do. They be- iieve the Germans are punch drunk now, but during long stay at the front, have never hea Gaae man say the Germans had collapsed or were at the point of collapse.
 Further, the conviction that a second front will come eventually to help destroy the enemy plays a part in the Russian Army mans con- f1dence.
 The victories the Red Army has won so far and the belief that even more powerful blows are being held in reserve are important factors in the state of mind prevailing.
 Lieutenant General Rodion Y. Malinowsly, chief field commander under Colonel. General Andrei I. Yeremenko in the southern drive for Rostov told me: ~
 "The German soldiers faith in victory undoubtedly has been undermined. The more we lick them the less faith they'll have in vic- tory" <
 "But they haven't been licked yet commented Major General Ptotr V, Kotelkov. ,% t
 Russian soldiers are not given to extremes of exaltation or depres- sion. They are dogged in defeat, calm in victory. They carry on their duties in the same business-like manner regardless of diversity or success. They accept reverses only aS temporary phenomena.
 The soldier looks business-like al- ways. When he guards prisoners on the way to the rear he keeps his finger on his rifle trigger. It Is Q somewhat grim threat and the pris- oners show that they know 1t.
 I sat today in the candle lighted room Of a Cossack station near the Don. We were talking to i've crack young scouts. just back from a long expedition into the enemy lines.
 They had surprised and wiped out, with guerrilla comrades, a Ger man divisional staff. These young sters, in their early twenties, he'd their tommy guns between their legs as they talked.
 The talk was interrupted when three German airmen. shot down several hours before, were brought in for questioning.
 The scouts, who had killed in- numerable Germans in close or &C., tual hand to hand combat did not move an inch or change their pos ture when they saw the Germans. They stonily watched the enemy prisoners. It was difficult to read the thoughts of the scouts but the only facial recognition of the Ger mans presence I saw was a brief look of contempt as the prisoners talked in German, which none of the, scouts understood. ~

Ing feat, which some day may be- come fact. David Ranne uses this tunnel as the central theme of his new war thriller Tunnel From Cal- ais" (Macmillaii: $2,5O).
 The Germans build 1t to invade England, succeeded in reaching the island. Then in the fury of para chute attack, tanks begin to roll from the tunnels mouth. The in. vasion attempt, fails, thanks to the work of hero Macrae, but only after Rarne has kept you at fever pitch for some 200 pages.
 Unless you are familiar with Eng fish, as Author Rames interprets 1t, you may find the going @ little be- wtldering. His military terms, his accents and dialect may prove pug zlers to many, and are the chief fault of an otherwise excellent story.
 Invasion is also the theme of "Call to Action" Doubleday DoraIl: $2.50) but in this case it is the Pacific Northwest that is the goal, a power dam the chief objective and Japan csc paratroops attempting to estab- fish a foothold on continental Amer ical. Here is a vivid picture of what an invasion might be, with trained Jap killers pitted against untraii1ed civilian guards, terrifying in pros pect. F5J.,."',s.
 But don't let it worry you too much. Such an enemy force might succeed in landing, but as Jeff Bur- ton reasons, there are millions of men-trained and armed--waiting for them. a..
 SPOTLIGHT ON YOU GIT IS time for man to make a
 new appraisal of himself" writes Philip Wylie in "Generation of Vipers" (Farrar and Rinehart: $2.75). His failure is abject. His plans for the future are infantile." ... Never was chaos SO great. Never was paradise so near to the reach of common folks-like you, and clowns like me-"
 Between these first and last lines of his book, Wylie has sandwiched 8 searching observation of the Amer ican scene, presented as sermons, sometimes ranting, scathing denun- citations, often amusing, altogether interesting, even if 1t singles you out for some of its barhs. And 1t almost must, because Wylie misses few American characteristics in his blasts. .
 Whether you agree with him or not, you must admit WyNe has given the country the awakening kick 1t needs. ,a. <,

 Escape reading is much in de- mand, publishers report. If war news becomes more grim, and cas- ualty lists and losses mount, a swift upsurge in mystery reading is fore- cast.
 Westerns may regain some of their lost popularity, although there is no new Zane Grey in the of1lng. Light, romantic novels are still high favor ties with busy housewives and fen1- inen offlce workers.
