German Army to Stage Overthrow Of Hitler
Present Naz Government in Jttery State Writes Wl-
 liam q. SOllmann in Current Issue of Golfers

I police force inside Germany. The disintegration can be accelerated, he adds, by good Allied propa- ganda such as was used successfully against Mussolini toward the end of his dictatorship.
 "The morale inside Germany is weakening rapidly" Sollmann de- clares, mot by underground propa- ganda, but through the long drawn out war, the retreats in Russia, the defeats in Africa and Sicily, the mass bombings of German cities, the evacuation of millions of families from ruined homes, the widespread slave labor, recruited especially from girls and women of the mid dle class, the intending loss of young men at the front, profiteering and corruption, the lack of food, and now the fall of Mussolini and the invasion of Italy. Already many Na1s are trying to save their skins by asserting that they were never genuine Nazis."
 The army will desert Hitler as 1t deserted Wilhelm II, Sollmann said, and in all probability this will hap pen much more violently than in 1918. "The day will come when overwhelming forces in the army will decide that Germanys fate is more important than Hitler and his gang. There is no reason to be- lieve that the German generals, in the coming hour of decisive defeat, will be ready to sacrifice them selves for 8 bankrupt dictator" Sollmann was Editor of the Rheinische Zeitung of Cologne from 1911 to 1883. He left Germany when Hitler came to power and continued his anti-Nazi activities outside the country. He became 8 resident of the United States in 1887 and an American citizen last June.

ely and surrounding towns nave been completed and local officials are awaiting "go" signal from the state director, it has been revealed.
 Efforts to arrive at an agree ment on form of employment con- trols will be made at the meeting Friday in view of the certainty of a state order, it was believed. AL though a directive for State War Manpower Director William J. Fitz- gerald setting the controls machin- cry in operation is expected here "momentarily" one source has ex- pressed the belief the directive may be held off pending outcome of Fri days meeting.
 Two recommendations were for mulated by the committee at meeting two weeks ago and for warded to state and regional of- ficiaLs but no revelation has been made publicly on the outcome of the action. The committee asked to have Waterbury removed from the central Connecticut area which is subject to hiring controls and also asked for insertion of seniority right guarantees in the stabilization regulations.
 The controls program will involve classification of all local industrial plants into priorities groups. with placement of workers to be directed toward employers in the first group and cut off completely from the third category. Employers in the B" class will be allowed to replace workers but will not eb allowed any hiring for expansion purposes, &C., cording to the proposed setup.
 Ceilings on the number of work CTS plant can employ also, will be set, 1t has been revealed. The con- trols, determined by state priori- ties and urgency group, will be sub- ject to change in accordance with new needs of various industrial plants.
 Mrs. Mary M. Dewey, area WING director Is expected to be suffi- ciently recovered from a recent ill., ness to attend Fridays meeting. She was dismissed from St. Mary's hos- pital last week end after con- finement of a week and half due to severe cold, and is convalescing at her home.

FREE PRESS NOT IN DANGER

- Nowhere in the world is the press en-
joying the freedom that it now has in the
United Sattes. The petulant bowls that
come from Washington correspondents and
various columnists, over legitimate control
of news sources in relation to governmental
events, is baby business.
= The newspapers and those who write
for them would serve the interests of the
Fourth Estate better if they would concen-
trate upon giving the people thorough
eeverage of news events and fair presen-
tation of controversial issues. In so doing
they would serve the public which, in the
long run, is the best way to promote the
welfare of the press.

ISOLATION is RAMPANT

The fact that thirty two United States
Senator's openly record their opposition to
an international police force to preserve the
peace of the world is evidence that isolation
ism is not dead and that some Senators do
not learn anything.
The question posed by the Associated
Press in recent poll may not be entirely
conclusive as to the Willingness of the Sen
ators to support an active and Intelligent
foreign policy of thesUmted States COOP
Grafton with other nations.
Only twenty-four Senators were Will.
ing to go on the record in favorof preserving
peace through IAN international police
force" Forty members of the greatest de-
Lucrative body in the world were unrecord-
ed, with most of them "deliberating.'
Naturally, no surprise is occasioned by
the failure of the irreconcilable Hiram
Johnson, of California, to support any intel
ligent move looking to broader vision of
the future Much the same comment can
be made on the position of Other veterans
who. like Senator Smith, of South Carolina,
do not know what the issues will be-
The question posed by the Associated
Press did not attempt to fill ia the details
as to the creation, operation and control OF
the international peace force TWAS de-
signed to test sentiment on the general
thought because almost everybody reel yes,
by this time, that the present war vii be re-
peated unless there is some force to curb ag-
gressors in the future.
The replies Of those who took positive
positions may be considered as revelation
of their mind upon the general subject of in
ternational cooperation to preserve peace
after the present struggle ends. The poll
reveals that there are thirty-tw Senators
who are against anything, and scrutiny OF
the names will reveal that they are the mem
bers of the Senate who have been against
most things

of Jeffersons monument You see
'em down there with button
hole bouquet, and humping their
chest and basking in jefferson s
greatness. And then they go back
to. their roHFtop desksand concoc
some anti-Jefferson laws that will
put skidss under U. S. "A. business
like as il business was some sort
of highway and. not something
that helps make this country great
versus being like some foreign
country from which people want
TO migrate.
People came to the U. S. A. be
cause Jefferson and the others
said that people herein are free
and equal. Now, the ones in Of
flee say we have out-lived the old
ideas and should be curbed and
done over.
The U. s. A. is okay- Some OF
us are kinda odd and funny. but

ACCENT WORDS

Miami is in the throes of a political
campaign, and, though it is rot The Citi-
zen's business to say whom Miamians should
elect, yet The Citizen can not help from
wondering if the people of that city read
the long and labored announcements of the
aspirants for city commissioners.
Some of the appeals for support run to
1000 words or more, and it is questionable
if anybody reads them, except the candi-s
dates themselves, members Of their families
and supporters who will be benefited with
city jobs in the event this. or that man is
successful in the race. fto1l
A story must be packed with human in,
terest, suspense, drama and good charac-'
terizations to sustain the interest of a read
er through 1000 words. Some magazines
pay $500 or more for story of that length
indeed, one American magazine pays S400
for story of only 1000 words. That figures
up at 40 cents word, and, with no reflec-
ton intended on the writing ability of the
candidates for commissioners in Miami,
their political announcements have not suf-
ficient intriguing qualities to meet the rate
of a penny word in pulp magazines.
Newspaper space is the very best in
vestment for candidate for. election, and.
the more space he buys the, better, are his.
! chances of being successful. But becauses
he buys column or two or three columns:
he shows tightly CONTRACTED sense Of hui.
man nature if he proceeds tospaekthe space.
with many words set in Small type He.
would drive home his message thousand
times more effectively if he would use few
words and big type.
Though ballyhoo is part and parcel OF
American politics, it can't be engineered
properly with superabundance of words
To use mixed metaphor, it is the striking
sentence, boiled down to few words, that
brings home the bacon.
Incidentally, at least one of the Miami
candidates, Abe Aronovitz, was born in
Key West, and The Citizen thinks that
second, Duncan Brossier, was born here
also. However, that may be, Brossier used
to be carrier boy on The Citizen. John.
DuBose, who, until recently, was connected
with the rent-ceilng office in Key West, is
also in the field ~
