Poland's Underground
Quits Warsaw Struggle
Continued from Page One)


Warsaw Polish force was doomed
when it turned out about the mid
die of last month that Red armies
on the central front would not be
able to crack German resistance
at the Polish capital. It was DOOM
ed, according to authorities here,
because no guerrilla force can ex-
list without adequate support from
outside.
This fact and the way it worked
out in Warsaw with last nights sur
render by General Dor after So
days OF fighting are now being
cited in official quarters as evid-
ence of theory rapidly gaining
popularity here-that even though
the Nazis try to organize under
ground resistance inside of Ger
many they will face inevitable fail
ure because there will not be any
outside military source on which
they can depend for arms and sup
plies.

Ocean Mu||et
Thrive Inland .
Novel Experiment
Is Successful

WASHIN TON - W.D -
Transplanting fish from salt to
fresh water is something new in
the fish hatchery field, but at
Beaufort, N. c., young mullet
are being taken from the sea,
placed first in brackish water
and then in fresh water, and are
grown successfully in these in
land ponds.
Ocean fisherman in Southern
waters find mullet a fat catch.
and the fish and wildlife serv-
ice of the Department of the In
terror is experimenting with
stocking farm fish ponds with
this food fish. Most farm fish
ponds yield about 200 pounds of
fish per acre annually, but
Beaufort experiments with null
let farming yielded approx
mately 5000 pounds per acre in
two years.
The process of changing the
mullet's environment is still ex-
detrimental, and in spite of the
success with the Beaufort fish
cries it is not yet certain that
mullet will grow in all fresh
water areas.
The small mullet must be
seined from the ocean, and put
in ponds where there is micro
scopic vegetation for their food
supply. To fertilize the vegeta-
tion,r ducks were kept on the
pond at Beaufort.
The mullet is a hardy fish
and is less likely TO be injured
during transportation than any
other species. This is believed
TO be the first time in this coun-
try that the transfer of SUBJ
stantial quantity of relatively
large salt water fish to fresh
water has been accomplished al
though it has been done success
fully with aquarium fishes.

when that ardent protagonist of
air power was being squelched
by the reactionaries. Though he
was more tactful than Mitchell,
he did get into difficulties at
times. He was one of the few
officers who ventured to defend
General Mitchell at the latter's
court martial, and in 1926 he
was officially reprimanded for
too bluntly supporting Maj. Gen.
Mason F. Patrick's demand for
reorganization of the Air Corps.
Arnold now is one of the Big
Five - Leahy, King, Marshall,
