Nozis Begin
Terror Reign

BY ROBERT DOWSON

London, May 2-(UP)-Ger-
many, in an 18th hour attempt to
prevent any revolt timed to coincide
with an Allied invasion, was report
ed today virtually to have quaran-
tined 100000 foreign workers in
the Reich and begun an unparal-
leled reign of terror in France.
Dispatches from neutral coun-
tries said the German government
had prohibited foreign workers,
most Of them already little more
than slaves, to travel on railways
without special permission, which
would be granted "only if the jour-
ney were absolutely necessary"
Pierre Vienot, ambassador Of the
French National committe to Lon
don, charged in an interview that
the Germans were carrying out
mass murders in France in futile
effort to stamp out growing patriot
resistance on the eve Of the open
ing of a western front. --..--.--- 81
More than 100000 Of the Vichy
French militia were cooperating
with the Gestapo and German mil
itary in the ruthless campaign OF
determination, centering mainly in
northern France opposite England,
Vieot said.
Whole villgaes were being wiped
tut in the manner of Lidice, he as
serted. In one town. he said. movie
theater was set afire and all inside
persisted.
Nevertheless, sabotage was con-
tinuing to increase in France, he
said. In January, So trains were de-
rallied and Sc locomotives wrecked
in one district alone. Some 500
Maquis, or members of the under
ground, resisted 5000 Germans for
II days in one village and killed 700
of them.
Radio Brazzaville, official French
station in Africa, said that Vichy
admitted that the Germans had eX-
ecuted $4,000 French hostages ex-
elusive of patriots and members Of
the underground since 1910.
Other reports reaching London
said that German storm troopers
had been ordered to confiscate all
radio sets in northwestern France,
particularly along the coast, pre-
sunably to prevent French patriots
from listening to invasion instruc-
tons BROADCAST from Britain.

United Press Staff Corresponds


Warrington, May 2 CUP) The
United States, limiting that the in
vasion may cut off all exports from
Spain to Germany. today lifted its
embargo on oil shipments to Spain
in return for Spanish agreement
10 cut wolfram exports to Germany
to Is per cent of the 1913 total.
The United States had held out
for several weeks for total embar-
go on wolfram-a mineral used for
hardening steel-but settled for the
rs per cent cut ION the urgent re-
quest of the British government"
The agreement was negotiated by
the United States and Great Britain

in Madrid. 1t also provides for:
I. Expulsion of designated Axis
agents" from TangierS, the Spanish
zone in North Africa. and from the

The Americans and British also
were assured that all Spanish mil
itary forces have been withdrawn
from the eastern front.
The agreement becomes effective
at once. although 1t was pointed out
at the State Department that Span
iards could not expect to get any
oil for about As days-the time nee
essary for Spanish tankers to come
to the Caribbean oil areas, load
and return.
There was a hint of some disap-
pointment among American officials
in the State Departments an

negotiations was TO continue to de-
prive Germany OF Spanish wolfram.

a basis less than a total embargo

Darlington and had set ourselves a
hard task: We we're putting together
a Soldiers and Sailors Prayer
Book" l had already written l2O
letters in the search for material -
to generals, to admirals, to battle
practiced enlisted men. The response
was inspiring. Each days mail
brought new proof that there are no
atheists in foxholes. We got prayers
from Gen. Mark Clark. from Admiral
King, from dozens of Others. But we
didn't have one from the supreme
commander of the invasion. Then,
just as our book was going to press,
the Eisenhower prayer came in. His
letter was brief and typically modest:
Here, he wrote, is "a prayer that
l once heard a company COM

wet, cold night, just before start
ing a march to the front line. 1t

original"
THIS is the prayer the General
enclosed.

If you are, you will
enjoy reading this -.
If you aren't, here's
some advice you need!

MANY comedies and novels end with
lVl wedding BELLS The last sentence of a
fairy tale is: They married and lived
happily ever after" But in real life. the
most interesting part of the story comes
after the wedding bells, and though large
number of married couples manage to live
happily ever after" most of them do
not achieve conjugal happiness without
going through difficult and sometimes
painful periods of readjustment.
The great menace to happiness in mar
riage lies precisely in tendency to take such
happiness for granted Some husbands and
wives seem to believe that, once two lovers
have been joined in wedlock, there is moth
ing more to be done but to watch for the
success or failure of the experiment. Yet
marriage is not an experiment. 1t is a
contract whereby a man and woman
who know that both have their faults and
will often disagree, promise nevertheless to
do their best to understand each other and
to work together for the success of their
marriage and the happiness of their family
Even if the match was one of love- sue
cessful marriage is an edifice that must be
rebuilt every day. 1t is only where there
is permanent will to maintain the sane
tity of marriage that there is a way to
durable happiness in married life. And
will to rebuild is not enough. Husband and
wife must also know what to rebuild and
how to rebuild it.
Which are the dangers that threaten
love in the matrimonial state? read the
other day, in a book OF schoolboys'
"boners," this sentence: I'm our civiliza-
ton, a man can have only one wife This
is called monotony" The student had
unwittingly pointed out a very real danger.
During courtship both lovers have new
stories to tell, new tokens to give. new
talents to show Later they enter new
house and new life. Every minute has
for them the charm of novelty.
But this charm wears out. If they are
not careful, the time will come when
people in a restaurant, noticing how silent
they are, will smile and say: Here is a
married couple" This is the occasion for
the artist in marriage to show his (or herr

question of liveliness, of genlallty
Husband and wife should. with love
and care, cultivate common interests II
they both like music, painting, or books
then everything is simple. for the arts are
the best friends of love If not, they may
both find pleasure in sports, in games, IN
politics, or more simply in building their
home and bringing up their children.
1t matters little what they are interested
in. as long as they have some common
interest What they must avoid is the
solitary broodlng over supposed or real
conjugal grievances. In marriage as IN
every way of life, action. common action,
is salvation.
ANOTHER danger would be the lack. in
married life, of the courtesies and atten-
tons that marked the period of courtshlp.
Married men and women have tendency
to relax and take sentiments for granted.
A wise husband never forgets that women
cannot live without love, while the wise
wife remembers the interest she took be
fore their marriage in all he had to say
about his career Man cannot live without
his daily ration of praise If he does not
find admiration at home, he will hunt for
it elsewhere
In the task of maintaining in the home
an atmosphere of courteous politeness,
the most helpful ally is sense of humor
To have sense of humor is to be able to
laugh at oneself. Nothing is more low
able; nothing is more delightful. If we
know our small foibles and peculiarities.

some will say: is all this trouble worth
Will? did not marry to rebuild my home
every day; | married to build a home
once for all, and not to worry any more
about it" The answer is that there is
no such thing as ''once for ALL in human
affairs. The best house is in constant need
of care and repair; the best marriage is in
constant need of affection and understand
ing. The trouble taken to retain affection
will be repaid hundred times.
To know that there is at least one per
son who will remain faithful to us under
any circumstances, one who will share our
hopes and fears, one who loves US exactly
