Walton League
Opposes Power
Dams On Potomac
Claim Construction Would
Deny Enjoyment of Rivers
Natural Beauties

Acting on information that plans
for the construction of power dams
on the Potomac are taking positive
shape, the Rockville Chapter of the
Izaak Walton League at its Decenl-
Der meeting unanimously approved
a resolution opposing such develop
ment as destructive to scenic and
historic values of the river. In
adopting the resolution the chapter
pledged itself to fight any unneces-
sary exploitation and depreciation
of the Potomac.
The proposed series of dams it is
claimed, would practically obliter-
ate the river as such, and deny the
people of Maryland Ito whom the
river belongs) and the country at
large, the enjoyment of its natural
beauties and attractions for all
time.
President Frank Dement, an
nounced the appointment of Alfred
D. Noyes as chairman of the chap
ter's planning committee. Judge
Stedman Prescott, Ruben Riggs,
Judge Donald DeLashmutt, and
Roscoe Whip of Rockville, and
Robert Conroy and Owen Knight
of Forest Glen, were other men,
bers appointed, with Chairman
Noyes and Owen Knight designated
to represent the chapter, with rep
resentatives Of the Silver Spring
and Bethesda Chevy Chase chapter
on the County Coordinating Com
nittee, set up to facilitate unified
effort in the Leagues conserva-
ton program.
Mr.. Whip, assistant county
agent, announced the results of the
pheasant raising program of All
clubs and junior members, and the
chapter appropriated prize money
for the three boys who had been
most successful.

| Might Be WrOng--BU
BY P. G. STROMBERG :

train one of the worlds grea-
est armies. They have seen US
transport our war equipment to
the ports of our allies (their
enemies) where it is being used
with such telling effect. They
know that their people are tired
and weary of war and will well
come any peace which will leave
them a vestige of national honor
and eliminate the daily fear of
death and destruction from the
air. Hitler knows he can't win.
Goebbels is disappointed that the
big three did not again mention
unconditional surrender as the
only way to peace. Leaving out
of the published
" Armies text any refer
By Land, ence to uncondi-
Sea or Air" tional surrender
has taken from
German propagandists their best
argument for keeping up the
home front will to fight.
The termination of hostilities
in Europe depends largely upon
the men within Germany (many
of whom are in concentration
camps) and their ability to
overthrow the Nazi machine.
Turkeys position has also at
tracted wide attention. The
conference of Churchill and
Roosevelt with the President of
Turkey, BODIES further i'll for
German satellites. The Balkans,
already worn out and struggling
to avert complete German occu-
patton, are now confronted with
the real probability of having a
big part of the war fought
within their boundaries. Ger
man divisions have been raised
into Bulgaria to the Turkish
border in a frantic effort to
meet impending danger. Hitler
is forced to divide his armed
forces-the one catastrophe he
hoped to avert. He is getting
a return of his war of nerves.
There remains much bitter
and bloody fighting to be done.
Unless Hitler and the Nazis are
overthrow it will be necessary
to practically annihilate the
German armed forces. That, Of
course, will be done. The final
stages of the war will be within
Germany. The German people
will get their first taste of in
vading forces in many years.
They will get an impression of
what their war lords have Wis
tied on weaker neighbors. In
the long run it might perhaps
be better so that future Germans
will be less anxious to live on
war.
