put before Congress to authorize
presidential expenditure of what
ever money it may later appropriate

''The Christian faith is practical
it is not merely matter of books,
or of sermonizing, or of pastors and
pulpits; it is and must ever remain
something alive, something active,
something dynamic, something prac-
teal, something demonstrative. Reli-
gion is truth translated into action,
embodied in life" Rev. Professor Of
tomar Kruger (above), president of
Concordia college, Fort Wayne, In
diana, declared Sunday in his address
as guest speaker on the international
Lutheran Hour. "Christianity func-
tions today as it did two millennia
ago. True religion still exercises its
influence upon the hearts of men and
shows itself in their actions now as
then"
Asserting that at the close of the
war the American populace would
have immediate need of 2,590,000 au-
tomobiles; $6,0OO,O00 worth of new
homes; 1,715,000 mechanical refrig-
orators; 1,05O,00O vacuum cleaners;
100000 new washing machines,
President Kruger continued: "Nev-
ertheless with all these indications of
temporary prosperity, what the nation
needs most of all is the return to the
religion of Jesus, which practices
Christian virtues among all men.
Through boom or depression true
religion is needed, for Righteousness
exalteth nation, but sin is re-
proach to any people,"

persons injured thereby, and to the
United States If so injured"
The coal stoppages would fall
within another provision Of the act,
forbidding strikes in plants or mines
seized by the government. That
provision sets maximum penalty
of 5000 fine and one years I'M
prisonment for inducing, encourag-
ing or conspiring with any person
to interrupt production OF seized
plant.
A reliable source said Coal Adj
ministrator Harold L. Ickes was
preparing to post at mines list OF
violations of the anti-strike law,
but interior department spokesman
said they knew of no such plans,
The anti-strike law also requires
the government to return property
seized as the result of strike to
private owners within go days after
production reaches normal levels.
Government authorities have given
no indication when they expect to
return the mines, and the United
Mine Workers called off their strike
last week on the condition that the
government retain control.
Ickes announced the appointment
of Carl E. Newton, Cleveland, presl-

Railroad, to supervise government
operation of the mines. He will serve

delegated by Ickes, beginning Thurs

AXIS EXPECTING
INVASION SOON
Continued from Page u

The majority Of the landing
barges we're described by a Rome
broadcast as of 300 tons displace-
ment. 1874 feet long and capable of
carrying five tanks or 600 men. The
broadcast estimated the range of the
barges as 300 miles and their speed
as IL knots.
Same of the landing ships sighted
by Axis reconnaissance planes were
said to be of 5000 tons and 262 feet
long. These we rebelieved specially
designed to carry tanks and armored
cars.
Latest reports on movements of
the italian fleet indicated that
warships based at Spezia have put
to sea to join the other half of the
fleet in the Gulf of laramie in
southeastern Italy dispatch from
Madrid said.
If this proves true, Allied planes
from either the northwest African
or Middle Eastern command, or
both, may intercept the warships off
the italian or Sicilian coasts or in
Messina Strait American and Brit
ish bombers have destroyed Messina,
on the Sicilian side of the straits.
Madrid said, and repeated raids also
we're known to have damaged the
mainland port Of Reggie Calabria,
opposite Messina, severely.

ports from the Spanish border town
of LIE Linea, said a British aircraft
carrier, two battleships and six de-
stroyers put out from Gibraltar yes

Invasion Day"
The German Transocean Agency
said that foreign press quarters in
Stockholm had learned from three
different channels" that the Allies
had chosen July 3 as invasion day."
Only last month the Germans were
claiming that the Allies had set
June %, second anniversary of the
signing of the Franco-German arm
istice, as invasion day.
Madrid dispatches asserted Italian
air experts were complaining over
shortage of anti-aircraft guns
with which to meet the increased
tempo of Allied bombing raids on
Sicily, Sardinia and southern Italy.
Three-fifths of the airf1elds on
which the Italian air force planned
to base it's fighters are bombed so
frequently that they cannot be re-
paired for use, the dispatches added.
