admitted that Hitler is sincere. has
a gift for organization, and has sur
rounded himself with able men.
Heinzen with a sigh says it's too
bad this mighty force could not
have been constructive instead OF
destructive.
They see a great postwar men

from seven to ten years old in the
Hitler Youth Army, who know only
their Mari teachers and party lead
ers. Youths who can recite pages
OF Mein Kampf but not a verse OF

answer. They would carry these
youths off TO Russia TO learn new
values and to forget old discipline.
One way. 1t is said. to prevent
another Goering from amassing a
giant production OF war materials
Is to control the amount OF coal al
lowed into Germany. which would
automatically control extent OF
heavy industry and keep a check to
insure that steel earmarked for
such civilian uses as railroad ties
was not diverted into war indus

Pepper Pointers for Victory Garden

PEPPERS rate a place in the
Victory garden because they can
be used In a great variety OF
ways. Few people grow their own
plants from seed since young pep
per plants can always be pur-
chased at the proper time for set
ting out. The average family will
only require a dozen or two of the
sweet pepper plants for use in sal
ads and other dishes, and only a
few Of the plants OF the hot pep
per for use in sauces or picking
purposes.
Peppers are not difficuit to grow

The atmosphere in Washington is

first flash. All other news shrinks
In importance in anticipation OF the

The few war correspondents who
