Turkey SIoshes
Ties With Nozis

claring that the rupture, effective
Immediately, was decided upon at
the request of Great Britain.
IGNORES THREATS
Saracoglu brushed aside German
threats of grave consequence"
stemming from the break and de-
clared that it is for the Reich to
decide on war or peace with Turkey
The action was expected to be
followed by Bulgarian attempt to
make peace with the allies, with
Romania and Hungary probably fol-
lowing the Bulgars out of the axis
camp.
The Turkish diplomatic stroke
came hard on the heels of another
blow to Germanys prestige in the
north, where Finland appointed
Marshal Baron Carl Gustaf Emil
Mannerheim president in an appar-
ent move toward peace for that un-
happy satellite.
Mannerheim's appointment ap-
peared to presage a general re-
shuttle of the Finnish government
that rejected Russia's peace over
lures last April.
UTTERS DEFIANT WORDS
Saracoglu disclosed his govern
ment'S decision to break with Ger
many in defiant speech to the ma
tional assembly which Immediately
ratified the cabinet action by
unanimous vote.
He revealed that Britain had
asked Turkey to sever relations
with the naziS under the terms of
the Angle military alliance.
and that the United States had sup
ported the British in this request.
Britain, he said, agreed to provide
economic assistance and military
equipment to help Turkey meet the
difficulties which will arise from
this decision :"
Saracoglu said word of the cabi-
net decision already had been
transmitted to the British govern
ment, where it was received with
great satisfaction"

The Bud

For those who would look the woodlands
now have prime display Of what the special
lists in that industrial problem would call pack
aging. Bud are opening and if any profes-
sional packer ever slowed half as much into as
small space. as the trees and bushes reveal
IN their buds he could rightly cry triumph SUI
preme.
Look at the beeches and you will find each
stem tipped with lance point not much larger
than pencil lead; the green already showing
there, as the scales fall away, will become
leaf half as big as human hand. On the
twigs of the gray birches which have been bow
ing under every heavy rain are buds not a
quarter of an inch long; peel away the scales
with care and you can unfur from them per
feet birch leaf, every vein in sight, still so
small that not even a flea could hide beneath it.
On the dogwood buds are fattening that have
been there all winter long. Now they are about
the size and shape of praying mantiss head.
Open one with care and you will find within
the marvelously folded cream-white leaves
which will enfold the flower when it blossoms
four broad leaves in a packet the size of the
mantis head. And on the grape leaf viburnum
there are clustered flower buds like pinhead
beads with tightly furled leaves enclosing them
two cupped hands
But for the master display of all, find
shagbark hickory and be patient. One warm
day it's buds will have grown to the size of
finger. Then they will have forced back their
green husks and revealed a fine pink capsule
the size of small thumb. The sun will beam
and the pink sheath will open, and out will
come not one leaf but five, or even seven. un-
furling even while you watch the miracle

EDITORIAL
What Price Victory?

In view or the fact that morale is playing a
major part in the winning of this war, it might
be dangerous to say that some people are be-
ing un-patrIotic IN their attempts to stock up
on war wealth. So let simply say that they
just don t realize the misdemeanor committed
when in their mad lust for money they for
get to consider the feelings and the wages of
the average Service Man, in the setting of their
prices for numerous commodities. A com
mon occurrence is to hear a member of the
Armed Forces grumble when he has to pay
twenty-five cents for a hamburger when he
had recently purchased one for ten cents in his
home town You can't tell him that prices are
up and expect him to be pacfied because be-
Tor entering the service all he could hear was.
We doing without that the Service
Men and Women get the best of every
thing at the lowest cost Now he is constant
ly confronted with a situation that both be
wilders and angers him. He has to pay out
rageous prices for commodities that are sup
posed to be for his convenience
This setup has tendency to rritate his
normally sound logic and agitate host of ex-
temporaneous gripes. True enough, an
army without the traditional grpe would not
be altogether American; but can you blame
the Service Man for assuming an beligerent
attitude toward the civilian?
Due to the illustrated situation and others
that need not be cited, his morale is at low
ebb. his can be and is proving to be grow
ing detrment to the perfection Of a better
American Soldier.

To Be Commended

The 900 or more Fort Huachuca soldiers
including representatives from every group
here, are to be highly commended for their
superior conduct at the Battle of Bands held
at the Field House Saturday night
The place was contested, yet not single
disturbance occurred. This is unusual for any
group of people of this size, especially at a
social function, in the army or elsewhere.
1t certainly shows the results Of having well
disciplined soldiers.
You can be assured that the rough tootin
coronado of band aggregations sent the
group enough to make them pretty loud yet
the soldiers kept well under control.
When the last note was played the tremen-
dous crowd dispersed in less than minutes.

IL Senate Democrats
Oppose Roosevelt,
Bridges Claims
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Senator Bridges, Republican, of
New Hampshire, said today that an
even dozen Senate Democrats had
told him they would not vote for re-
election of President Roosevelt.
That" commented Senator Hill,
Democrat, of Alabama, 'is the Wild
est political wishing that one could
be guilty Of It's political bunk of
the rankest kind. 1t shows how
desperate the Republicans are when
they talk that kind of political
stuff"
Senator Bridges named no names
for publication. He told reporters
the u Democrats, over a period of
weeks, had informed him they were
against Mr.. Roosevelt, although
some might now have changed their
minds or might do so later.
Some of them," he said, ARE 60
ing to vote for Thomas E. Dewey.
Some are just against Roosevelt and
will vote only for the State Demo-
cratic ticket and not the national" :"
The Republicans, Senator Hill
countered in talking with newsmen.
ought to be concerned that Senator
Ball, Republican, of Minnesota "al-
ready has declared that up to date
he can't take Dewey"
Senator Bridges said Republicans
and anti-Roosevelt Democrats will
control the next Senate. Hence, he
said, Republican President ought
to be elected so he can work effec-
lively with the Senate majority for
the next four years and with
House he said is sure to be Repub-
lican
Senator Burton, Republican, of
Ohio, who is going to take on SEN
ator Hill in campaign debate at
Buffalo next Friday, echoed that
idea.
We're going to have an anti
Roosevelt Senate" he told report
|ers. 80 we need an Roosevelt
President. 1t will be easier to get the
two-thirds vote for ratification of
peace proposals with leader who
hasn't had IL years of friction with
Congress.
Senator OMahoney, Democrat, of
Wyoming said the Republicans were
obviously whistling through the
graveyard" He gave these reasons
to reporters:
Thomas E. Dewey isn't going to
be elected. And it's much more i'm
portant for the country to see that
Republican voters do what Senator
Ball suggests and elect Senate
that will actively support interna-
tional peace than it is to try to elect
an administration on the altogether
unsubstantial theory that Senate
Democrats from any section are 60
ing to follow Gov. Dewey on domestic
problems"
And Senator Hill said it was a
very violent assumption" based on
wishful thinking, that the next Sen
ate would be under anti-Roosevelt
control
