That's the kind of job this torpedo is. And that's
why the and women at Harvester are proud
that in starting production we beat our promise to
the Navy by months.
We have been greatly aided in doing that by the
Navy itself. Through Navy cooperation, picked
group of Harvester production men stayed at gov
ernment torpedo station for weeks, planning fac
tory layout, tooling and methods outlining special
training courses for Harvester employees
We have been able to beat our promise, because
the experience of Navy men and the production
knowledge of Harvester men are teamed together
to achieve the same goals-making good torpedoes,
making them faster, making more of them
We owe all that-and more-to some souare-jawed
kid from Kansas. And every man and woman of us
is determined to see that that debt is paid.

It's tough job!
"A TORPEDO is big, hundreds of pounds of special
steels and brass and copper and alloys carrying
hundreds of pounds of deadly explosive Yet it has
parts precision pieces, small they can be carried
beneath a mans fngernail.
MANY PARTS of our torpedo are made in air-condi-
toned, emperature-controlled rooms, rooms which
are scrubbed each day because tiny particles of
dust, thicker than one nights dust on YOUR
piano, would destroy their absolute accuracy.
lHERE ARE PARTS decately poised that they are
oiled with hypodermic needle with alternate drops
placed carefully each side One extra drop of oil
would throw them out of balance
"A TORPEDO is guided to its target by gyroscope,
device precise in manufacture and so sure in oper
alton that it will automatically regulate the course
and the depth at which the torpedo travels. And it
must not fail. Gyroscopes normally are made only
by specialists. Harvester makes its own.

De Marigny Silent
AT Murder Hearinq
BY the Associated Press

LF tHr hpSptldltu EItNNr
NASSAU, Bahamas. Aug %
Tall, bearded Alfred De Marigny
listened yesterday to the last of the
prosecutions testimony linking him
with the murder of his wealthy
father-in- law, Sir Harry Oakes, then
elected to wait later opportunity
to speak out in his own defense.
The expected closing of the pre-
liminary hearing for De Marigny
was delayed when Attorney Godfrey
Higgs asked to place one witness on
the stand. rare move for the de-
fense in British procedure.
Mr.. Higgs explained that his wit
ness, DR.. Ulrich Oberwarth, expects
to be absent from the colony in Oc-
tober and might not be available to
testify If De Marigny is held for
jury trial. DR.. Oberwarth was the
prison physician when De Marieny
was arrested July Q, the day after
Sir Harry's bludgeoned and burned
body was found.
Magistrate F. E. Field kept the
hearing alive until next Tuesday
and reserved his decision on whether
the evidence warrants a jury trial
AS soon as the final prosecution
witness, John Herbert Anderson
managing director of the Bahamas
General Trust, had completed his
testimony, Magistrate Field asked
De Marigny whether he wished to
say anything, warning him that his
words might be used against him al
a trial.
The husband of Sir Harry's eldest
daughter, Nancy, remained silent

Kept Guns Ready.
The daily appearance of the
planes served to remind any of the
aborgines who were of hostile incli-
nations that we had not been aban-
doned This made 1t easier for Mr..
Adams to keep them under control.
Two days ago-on our slow trek
back to civilization-we passed our
last danger from hostile natives
Until then, however, we had stum-
bled along with guns in hand.
The natives who make up our
party. those enlisted by Mr. Adams,
have been grand. They are carry
ing Sergt. Oswald-his broken leg
now held in place by expert splints
prepared by Col. Flickinger-on a
bamboo chair. The chair was made
by two Chinese officers who were
with us on the Inflated plane
One of the Chinese officers COL
lapsed and has been carried in q
makeshift litter for some distance
now.
Many of us are covered with in
sect bites and sores, but it Is MOTH
ing serious.
Co-Pilot Buried on Mountain.
Yesterday I became a victim of
the heat and exhaustion, but I'm
quite all right now.
All in all. the civilians of the
party seem to be standing up to it
as we'll as the soldiers.
We have come out of our ordeal
without any sufferings that a few
days rest won't cure-all except our
sorrow at the loss of one of our
group, Co-pilot 1t Charles William
Felix, 2l-year- flyer from
Compton, Calf.
Natives found his body under the
wreckage of the plane when the
flames had died away
We wrapped the body of 1t Felix
in one of our parachutes and buried
him under a mountain crest, with
military honors. The following
Sunday we erected a cross over the
grave and held services in his
memory.

The man wants the Russians to use
his private map of the world!
And each Russian wants us to use
his map. To be sure. But that does
not keep these American expressions
from being narrow, even provincial.
Only a man standing where we
stand could say that the Russians
overlook and underrate. To a Rus
sian. standing on the Russian
front(s), it does not seem that the
Russians overlook and underrate
very badly. There 1t seems that the
Russians make quite accurate esti-
mates, paying an eager and willing
Nf
victory.
A Simple Cry for Help.
The Russian cry for second front
is simple cry for help from people
who have died much. We have over
complicated the issue in our dis
cussions. We have even said that
Russia is an enigma" that maybe
she is planning separate peace"
that maybe she wants to control
Europe"
A nation crying out for help Is
not an enigma. The reason for the
appeal is clear as day A nation
asking that Hitler be finished off
this year Is not a nation asking for
peace with Hitler. A nation inviting
us into Europe cannot be considered,
in the same breath, to be plotting to
keep us out.
No, the Russians do not use our
map. Perhaps they skip too lightly
over our dead. But they have paid
their own tribute to death in sharper
ways than words. This is an appeal
for help as plain and simple as it
can be. There is nothing dark or
obscure about it. Darkness, and OBJ
scurity arise in human affairs when
candid appeals for mercy and help
are turned down.

Members Of Congress
In Disagreement on
Manpower Problem

While prewar fathers are waiting
for Congress to end the confusion
surrounding the father draft, re-
turning members of Congress also
are in disagreement on the solution
to the manpower problem, it ap-
peared today.
Representative Randolph, Demo-
crat, of West Virginia told reporters
last night that release of some
skilled workers from the Army is
necessary to help relieve manpower
shortages in aircraft factories.
Returning from a visit to West
Coast war plants, he said the point
has been reached where I'VE must
make the decision whether we are
going to have topheavy Army or
give aircraft plants sufficient man
power
On the other hand. Representa-
tive Van Zandt, Republican, of
Pennsylvania charged that draft
eligible single men are hiding" in
essential industries and must be
found before prewar fathers are in
Quoted generally. He suggested a
thorough review OF occupational de-
ferments.
Senator DoWney, Democrat. Of
California said he didn't see how
men could continue to be drawn in
substantial numbers from the Pa
clf1c Coast for the armed forces
without having it reflected in pro-
duction
Injecting another element into
the picture, Senator Maybank, Dem
ocrat, of South Carolina, urged that
Eteracy standards be abandoned to
put physically fit illiterates into the
Army before fathers.
Despite the differences of opinion,
however, it appeared clear that
members of Congress who have been
visiting war plants will draw a dis
cusslon OF national service into the
promised debate on the father draft
when Congress reconvenes next
month.
Mr.. Randolph reported he had
found the manpower situation is now
very serious in essential industries,
including shipbuilding. He said he
was particularly impressed with the
problem in the aircraft plants.

even more strict than it was in
Mussolini's heyday, it appears
that there are two distinct trends
in Italy.
One is said to revolve around
increasing Communist activity in
Northern Italy, where there is a
large industrial population. Large
funds are reported to be reach
ing the main industrial centers
through Switzerland
The devastating air attacks
against Milan and Turin have
depressed the working people in
those areas where there is an in
creasing move to bring to power
a committee of peasants and
workers to rule the country and
make peace with the Allies.
Despite strong activities OF
supporters of this movement their
progress is slow. Italian police,
aided by the Gestapo and Nazi
troops which are being sent from
the north in ever increasing
numbers, are handling the sit
uation with heavy hand.
According to reports from refu-
gees who have reached neutral
soil, there are wholesale execu-
tions of sympathizers of the
Communist movement. The lead
ers appear fearless, but their fol-
lowers are being cowed by the
military and are making only
lukewarm attempts to overthrow
the present government.
Badoglio Feels Let Down.
Premier Marshal Badoglio, who
at first had the backing of the
Germans, feels somewhat let
down. He does not cherish the
idea of making Italy into a bat
tleground between the Allies and
the Nazis and feels that Ameri-
can and British forces soon will
land on Italian soil.
He has attempted to approach
the Allies through the Vatican
and through the Spanish govern
ment-in which he has strong
friendships-but thus far his en-
deavors have been without result.
He maintains that no self-re-
specting Italian government can
accept the mo surrender" terms
of the Allies even If they were
less harsh than they appear on
the surface.
His weak peace activities are
known to Berlin and have Gre
ated an unfavorable impression.

seem big indeed on the personal and

they're not?
Somewhere, up and over to the
right, kind Of, there is an uncertain
sapec called the Eastern Front,
where Russian and German armies
have been locked in battle for better
htan two years. We have been
thrilled by some of the events on this
front. But even the fact that we
refer to it as the Eastern Front" or
the Russian Front" shows that 1t
occupies perhaps too little space
on the personal and private map.
1t is not one front; it is at least
six jor fronts; on them are a
hundred times as many German
soldiers as were found In Sicily. To
think of all this as one front is like
thinking of the country from Port

Bracken Denounces
Rumors Russia Nav
Make Separate Peace
BY the Associated Press.

DS tit hSSotldtSu rItSS
NEW YORK, Aug, 28.-Assailing
what he called "a lot of uncon-
scious fifth columnists" who are
spreading rumor that Russia might
seek separate peace with Ger
many. Brendan Bracken, British
minister of informatio said yes
terday that such talk fostered Hit
ler's hope of dividing the United
Nations and winning a political
victory
1T is foolish to assume that Mar
shall Stalin's inability to attend the
(Quebec) conference or the shift
ing of ambassadors is any indica
ton that Russia is going to male
some arrangement with Germany, ~
Mr.. Bracken said in a press con-
freence here.
Il think" he added that S .alin
really cannot spare the time Just
now for conferences 1t is highly
insulting to Russia to suggest that
she might drop out of the war"
He said Germany would be pleased
to make separate peace, but. un-
able to do SO. had spread the rumor
about Russia.
L believe Hitler knows from a
military point of view that he can't
win the war. bat through political
acton to divide the United Nations
he might escape consequences" he
said. Politically Hitler is a man
OF the greatest cunning and adroit-
ness. / believe he has real hopes
OF dividing the United Nations and
mat lot of people are uncon-
Sciously fostering that hope"

tary point of view and won it from
political point of view"
we want to take the burden of
Soviet Russia as quickly as we can:
we realize what she is doing and the
cost OF millions of lives involved,
Mr.. Bracken said. AT any cost, we
must do our best to take some oi
the load off her shoulders"
AS for the japanese, Mr.. Bracker
said they would have TO settle fol-
| atrocities with Britain and the
United States.
Regarding the Indian situation
the British minister said Britain
had every intention of fulfilling it.
pledges soon after the peace wa.
made, but that in such an i'm.
portant base. wartime was no timt
for ''perlpatetic orators"
Mr.. Bracken said that Rudolph
Hess, Hitler deputy, made his dra.
matte flight from Germany to Eng.
land two years ago in hopes he
would find Quislings who could bt
induced to overthrow the Churchill
government so Germany could turr
its full attention toward Russia.
Hess wouldn't have met any one
outside of lunatic asylum WHIT
would have anything to do with
him." Mr.. Bracken said, scornfully
adding:
Il remember the night he came
I was down in the country at party
and We were viewing a movie of the
Marx brothers and ] was called Il
the phone and told that Hess hac
come. I told the person with whom
Evening star., 1943-08-28

I was talking. I'm seeing the Marx
brothers. Don't bother me-"
Declaring Hess arrival came as a
complete surprise, Mr.. Bracken
scoffed at any suggestion that the
British intelligence had inveigled the
German into making the trip.
IF the British intelligence had
ever bothered to bring Hess over it
wouldn't deserve its name" Mr.
Bracken said.
He described Hess as a "Nazi of
low mentality" who simply thought
he could convince the English and
that we blushing violets would
recognize the futility of fighting
Germany"
