Blacklist
Continued From First Page.)

Gen. Walden was described as own
er Of a paper and carton Arm called
Paperituote.
The same blacklist supplement
issued last night also listed So
Swedish concerns. It was an
nounced several days ago that 3S
Swedish firms would be on the list
The additional, IS, it was learned,
consist of eight firms previously put
on the British blacklist, but not
on the American list, and seven
others described here as among the
important business organizations in
Sweden. -
Americans are forbidden to deal
with blacklist companies.
1t was thus brought out that the
United States in the last few days
has reinforced its policy of playing
a strong economic hand with the
Stockholm government and bust
ness interests in an effort to induce
the Swedes to halt all ballbearing
shipments to Germany.
The seven big Swedish firms
blacklisted last night for the first
time are Allkopia -Kopieringsan-
stalt; Halfdan Burman ALB, Stock
holm; Kaliforsaljnings ALB, Cote
borg; Lindbland and Person ABB,
Goteborg; Linden, Soren: Sand
strom ALB, Goteborg; Svenska Ras-
kinnauktioner ALB. AfB, literally
translated, means share company, -
or "incorporated.")
The effect of the action against
the Finnish firms was viewed here
as an economic knife siashing into
the vitals of Finland's earlyA post
war recovery and trade prospects
All Important Firms.
The firms listed are among the
most important in the little Scan
dinavian country and they include
among their officers and directors
many leaders in political and finan.
cial circles. One example cited here
was Enso-Gutzeit O/Y, woot
processing business which also deal.

makes many products devoted t.
specific German needs, such as sui
phate pitch, liquid rosin and vari.
Gus oils and greases. This firm /!
state controlled.
Two firms appearing on the list
Crichton Vulcan ABB, O/Y ane
Hietalahden Telakka are ship.
building industries which, accord.
ing to Allied investigations, have
repaired German submarines ane
other war vessels. 10Y likewis,
means, in Finnish, corporation.
A firm listed as Puutalo O/Y OF
Helsinki, was described as having
been especially organized in ls4l
to handle the sale and export of col.
lapslble wooden dwellings such a.
might be required in bombed-oul
cities. Tremendous quantities were
sold to the Axis in 1912 and 1943.
Covers Cross Section.
For the rest, the Finnish list
apparently covered a cross section
of the country's economic life.
1t is largely to force halt ir
the supply of ferro-alloys to Ger

been pressing for several month
to get Finland out of the war. Be.

Fighting Words Anthology
Of u. S. Fighting Men and
Women Is on Book Stands

"FIGHTING WORDS: Stories
and Cartoons by Members of the
Armed Forces of America" edited
by Warfield Lewis. j. B. Lippincott
Co.. So.
This anthology, containing 25
short stories and % cartoons chosen
as outstanding in worldwide con-
test among members of our armed
forces, is a remarkable book in
many ways.
The stories, which are of an
amazingly high calibre, prove be-
yond dispute that not only can our
forces fight Superbly-they also can
write superbly For of these stories,
only one could be classed as me-
diocre; the others all range from
excellent to magnificent, and all of
them are thoroughly entertaing.
The tone of the stories is, gener-
ally, serious; there is little levity;
there is an undercurrent of death
distant or imminent which some
times breaks to the surface: and
there is a. wiStfulneSs, a longing for
the peace and the return home.

Smyrna, Delaware
Dear Dribbles:
Please accept the apologies of
the writer of this anonymous let
ter, but my desire to remain I'M
known lies in the fact that I wish
to continue to hold the goodwill of
the members of the American Le-
gion. Dribbles, 1 am a native
Smyrnian, was born here, and live
here now. 1 often meet you on the
street, and together we exchange
CHEEKY greeting in the good old
American custom. 1 always read
your column in The Smyrna Times,
and I know you must be wonder
full morale builder for members of
the armed forces, and Merchant
Marine, as you are for me-a CIV
ilian. I will identify myself a Wee
bit by telling you I belong to the
so-called weaker sex. My reason
for writing. this letter is this:
In last weeks issue of The
Smyrna Times I read the very
touching letter which you received
from Mrs. Grace Jones of Camden,
New Jersey, mother of the late
Harvey Gardner, Jr., who paid the
supreme sacrifice while serving
with our unsung heroes-The Mer-
chant Marine. In thousands of
communities throughout the good
old u. S. A. are Honor Rolls, hon.
oring our men and women in the
armed forces, and of these we are
justly proud. On these Honor
Rolls we find the names of WACS
and WAVES, but no mention of
heroic Merchant Marine. Could
victory be ours on the battlefields
with empty guns? Gould an
armada of 1000 U. S. planes fly
deep into the heart of Adolph's
Europe without gasoline delivered
by the Merchant Marine? Could
the Lend-Lease be successfully car
ried out without the Merchant Ma
rine?
On New York's Great White
Way the nihgt clubs and cabarets
are alive with merry voices of the
WACS and WAVES dancing hap
PLY to sweet music and soft lights.
Now, let's picture Night Life with
the Merchant Marine. To them it
is a blacked-out ship on lonely
ocean haunted by wolf-packs of
deadly enemy submarines, the only
light being The Eternal Light of
God. That is what night life was
to Harvey Gardner, Jr., and many
others who never will come back.
For Harvey Gardner, Jr., it was
AMERICA. For Harvey Gardner,

Jr., it now is HEAVEN, and yet
not recognized on Smyrna's Honor
Roll. Even though this be true,
Harvey Gardner, Jr., has added a
GOLD STAR on HEAVENS
HONOR ROLL.
Think it over, American Legion
it over.
Good luck, Dribbles.
Dribbles wishes to thank the
writer of the above anonymous
letter for her expression of opinion.
At present, the thought running
through Dribbles' mind, is not to
laud or exemplify any particular
type of collective effort that is
helping the United States to win
this war. At the same time, Drib-
bles is just as strong in his desire
to see that none of these collective
groups are forgotten. When man
gives all that he has, so that his
Country may survive in time of
great peril, who can afford to draw
a line of discrimination between
these kinds of heroes? A wise
man would not try.
