British Stand by e
TO Take Action i'm
Lebanon Dispute

LONDON. Nov. 10. (UP)-BritiSh
diplomatic agents were ordered by
their government today to attempt
a. settlement of the Moslem crisis
provoked by the French seizure Of
government leaders in Lebanon, and
unofficial reports from Cairo said
British troops might be dispatched
if the French fail to restore order
Immediately.
An official announcement said
Harold Macmillan, British minister
in Algiers, had been instructed to
take up" the Lebanese situation
with the French national commit
tee of liberation in Algiers.
FOLLOWS PROTEST
The British action followed many
protests from Moslem leaders
throughout the Middle and Near
East against the Frenot action,
which was reported to have touched
off bloody rioting throughout Leb-
anon and its neighboring French
inundated state of Syria.
Cairo dispatches hinted strongly
that British armed forces were pre-
pared to rush into Lebanon and re-
place the existing French martial
law with their own military con-
troll.
Lebanese independence has been
guaranteed by Great Britain, and
it was considered likely, the Cairo
dispatch said that the entry of
British troops would be followed
by the restoration of constitutional
government IN which was
suspended by the French yesterday
Sam Souki, United Press staff
correspondent now in Beirut, said
a full-scale revolt appeared likely
unless the French release President

A POWER NO HATE CAN BREAK

(Signal Hill Tribune, Long Beach,
Some military leaders went so far as to
say our soldiers must hate the Germans
and japanese to fight them successfully.
But it was found impossible to teach hate
Doesn't the significance lie in what is
hated? The Axis nations hate whoever,
or whatever obstructs their domination
of the world. The Allies hate the awful
crimes of totalitarianism against the
freedoms of mankind This impersonal
condemnation of evil is native to democ-
racy. In war between the ideologies of
hymns of hate" and the Battle Hymn
of the Republic" our reliance upon the
terrible, swift sword of truth is a
power no Axis hate can break. Freedom
is more than an habitual acceptance of
way of life. 1t is the very stuff of life
itself

LONDON, Nov. - CUP)-Ameri-
can and British bomberS smashed
the last direct railway link be-
tween France and Italy in a record
rCaking day and night pincerS as
sault yesterday and RAF Mosquito
bomberS rounded out the offensive
with raids on Berlin, Hannover
and the Ruhr, it was disclosed to-
Gay.
Only a few hours after q heavy
British night raid on the Modanc
bottleneck severed the Lyon-Turin
railway wednesday night, Ameri-
can IiberatorS from the northwest
African Air Force cut the coastal
railway between France and Italy
and possibly the adjacent highway
at Antheor near Cannes on the
French Riviera yesterday.
CLINCH DESTRUCTION
Hundreds of British based four
engined bombers clinched the de-
struction of the coastal railway last
night with an attack on the juno
ton town of Cannes and several
-other key points along the line,
over which the Germans have been
moving supplies and achievements
to their troops in northern Italy.
The raids not only severed the
two main lines between Italy and
France at least temporarily, but
also probably all but cut off Ger
many from railway communication
with northern italy at a time when
the Nazi command was in the midst
of frantic preparations to meet
possible Allied landings in northern
Italy and possibly southern France.
Northwest African Air Force
bombers were believed to have
shattered the main railway link be-
tween Germany and Italy Wednes-
day with raid on the Bolzano
bottleneck on the Brenner Pass
railway. This railway alone was in
adequate to meet German demands
in northern Italy and the Germans
had been diverting an increasing
proportion of troops and supplies to
the lines that passed through
eastern FTdllCC dlltl tllbtlth iNuiJ
east of Modane and Cannes.
FEW LINES LEFT
Only a few inadequate, round
about branch lines, some of which
pass through Switzerland, remained
undamaged between Germany and
Italy.
To top off the offensive against
German communications. small
formation of unescorted Liberators
from the Northwest African Air
Forces crossed the Alps and bombed
railroad yards at Annecy, a juno
tion on two branch lines linking
Geneva, AK Les Bains and Cham
berry. A ball bearing factory also
was bombed at Annecy, which lies
in eastern France 35 miles south
of Geneva. 1t was the deepest pene-
tration of France ever made by the
Northwest African Air Forces.
! British based Mosquito bombers
which hit Berlin, Hanover and the
Ruhr last night were believed en-
gagged mainly in q diversionary CT
fort to keep German night fighters

So far. we'll over 200 japanese

coming ashore near the Laruma

the beachhead were brought down

Allied aircraft kept Bougainville

AMERICA WINS ON BATTLE
FRONT, LOSES AT HOME

America enjoyed another day of vic
tory on the battle front but suffered an
other major defeat at home.
A fourth of the nations half-million
soft coal miners refused to work on Arm
istice Day because they were not granted
time and half pay for the holiday.
Thank God our soldiers don't quit on
holidays.
The coddled miners, who refused to
work until the government took over the
pits, would not enter the government
controlled mines unless an overtime as
surance had been given.
Like bunch of spoiled children who
have once gotten their way they are fol-
lowing it up all the way.
They know they are essential to the sue
cessful continuance of the war and they
are using that club in every way possible.
The miners may have arguments for
their refusal to work in the mines on
Armistice Day. Undoubtedly they have
good substantial ones, at least from their
point of view. But no matter how good
the excuse 1T does not justify their ac-
tions in the eyes of the American public.
If they refuse to dig coal why shouldn't
the American marines on Bougainville
or the U. S. soldiers in Italy lay down
their arms. One act is as justifiable as
the other.
How can the nations of the world ever
hope to get together to establish peace
which will prevent another outbreak of
world madness if even a coal miners
problem cannot be settled amicably?

HUMAN EQUATION

If anyone thinks that personalities and
emotions are being crushed in our indus
tralized world of mechanical war, let
him look at the Brewster Aeronautical
corporations production record for the
past two months.
In September, the disgruntled, strife
ridden Brewster working force turned out
a total of eight fighter planes. On Oct.
7, Henry J. Kaiser took over the presi-
dency of the Brewster plants, performed
his usual magic restored vanished eff
cheney and Strengthened out impossible
labor relations In October, Brewster
built 27 fighters. 1t also turned out 80
Navy bombers and made notifications on
"a more bombers.
