perate men conscious of their
own guilty and impending
doom"
There is no precedent in mod
ern times for a major war end
ing without an armistice, but the
fanaticism of Hitler and his
most rabid followers have long
suggested they would try to car
ny on guerrilla warfare from
the hills of Bavaria or from
Austria and at the same time
maintain an underg u n d
throughout the country TO harass
the Allied army of occupation.
Churchills CO mment came
only a day after Lord Cher
bourne, government spokesman
in the House Of Lords, declared
there was reason to believe the
German General staff, envisag-
ing defeat, had started making
preparations for the next war.
Cranborne said the Allies
should make it utterly imposs-

other war and should use what
ever means are necessary to

This suggested Britain might
be ready~to back some de-indus-
trialization of Germany or at
least insist on complete Allied
control of heavy industries.

intimately more families in
Mount Clemens than any other
man could possibly meet. He
brought them the news that in
fluenced their daily lives; let
ters with the old-fashioned black
edging, birth announcements
and wedding invitations. The
last letters from men overseas
in World War I and World War
II have been tenderly handled
by him.
A vast storehouse Of know
ledge of individuals, houses and
streets is his unique attribute.
He has augmented it with men,
cries of when a certain family
house was built; who constructed
it and who first lived within its
now Weather-beaten walls. The
child that was born in it, and
whose birth was proudly an
nounced TO him on his daily
round, is now a Marine in the
Pacific or paratrooper fight
ing in France.
The notables of the past were
intimates of the veteran Mount
Clemens mail carrier. The his
tory they made as civic or bust
ness leaders, was observed daily
by carrier Lozen as he handed
them their packaged letters and
stopped for moment to chat
about topics of the day.
Among those he considered
his personal friends were the
late John R. Murphy, hotel and
bathhouse founder; the late
Robert Nelson, who lived in the
rear of the old Nelson Opera
House; DR.. Abner Hayward;
Oliver C. Chapoton, president
and founder of the Mount Glenn

Point seven o. the Presidents
letter TO Crowley said:
you have been making stud
les from the economic standpoint
of what should be done after the
surrender of Germany to con-
troll its power and capacity to
make war in the future.
This work must be accelerat-
ed, and under the guidance Of
the Department of State you
should furnish assistance in
work and when requested to do
so in personnel by making avail
able specialists TO work with
the military authorities, the for
eign service, and such other Am
erican agencies and officials as
participate with the United Ma
tons in seeing to it that Ger
many does not become a menace
again to succeeding genera
tons"
Other than on this point, Mr..
Roosevelt's order to Crowley
covered what FILA should do in
readjusting its long-standing
operations to the defeat of
Germany.
CONTINUED AID
"Lend-lease should continue
to be furnished in whatever
amounts are necessary for the
most effective prosecution of the
war" He said, making clear
that this meant the flow of Lend
lease aid should be continued as
needed to defeat Japan as we'll
as Germany.
A rDWsman then asked wheth-
er the letter covered the report
ed split in the cabinet commit
tee. The President replied that
was just newspaper talk, that
there had been no split, that ev-
cry story on that subject had
been essentially untrue in the
basic facts.
Officials associated with the
committee and intimately fam
liar with its work - sources
from which word of the split
was originally reported - have
considered German problems
divided into three phases: Cd
the present period of invasion
conquest; GU the immediate
postwar period of military oc-
cupation, and CD the long-range
period in which the future of
Germany must be finally set
tied. 1t is policy for the latter
phase that has been under dis
cuSsion.
In advising Crowley on fut-
ure operations of the Foreign
E onomic Administration,
when the military resistance
of Nazi Germany" ends, Mr..
Roosevelt directed:
EIGHT POINTS
l. Exports controls should be
relaxed as quickly and fully as
possible to promote information
al trade by affording increased
opportunity for private industry
and private trade.
2. Strategic and critical raw
materials which FEA has pur-
chased abroad should be adj
justed to meet the reduced needs
of waging the war against Jap
