Domingo that the good neighbor
policy-Roosevelt's policy-because
of its magnificent results would be
adopted as an official part of the
Republican party program in the
United States
Concerning the good neighbor
policy, DR.. Ojeda observed that
after long period of mistrust,
America again believes in the
United States. President Roosevelt
has established the good neighbor
policy by recognizing the dignity of
his neighbors and treating them on
plane of equality. only possible
base for international harmony"
Grateful to Roosevelt.
AS vice president of the Commit
tee for Political Defense of the
Continent, DR.. Ojeda recently
toured the hemisphere. He reported
that Latin American nations are
"perfecting their democratic meth
ods." and went on to say:
1--WE are not so blind that we fail
to recognize the leading world role
the United States plays due to its
enormous economic and cultural
power, that we in America live to-
gether under the wise Latin formula
of 'primus inter pares. The United
States doesn't conduct an austere
monologue, but chats with us amic-
ably at the gatepoSts."
DR.. Ojeda said Latin American
governments are particularly CRATE
full to President Roosevelt for estab-
fishing new concepts for the in
vestment of capital in the hemi-
sphere" He said due to this new
concept American capitalists in
Latin America today "are not con-
cerned with merely exploiting the
countries in which they operate as
they used to do. Rather" he added,
they help the development of our
people in general and the laboring
masses in particular in practical,
beneficial and workable manner.
On these bases of mutual respect
and sincerity of action, our friend
ship with the United States is sus-
tanned"

Germans Report Reds
Reinforcing for Drive
On Carpathian Passes
BY the Associated Press.


LONDON, Sunday, April 30
The Soviet high command an
nounced early today that the
Red Army had killed a battalion
of 800 to 1000 Axis troops in
repulsing counterattacks south
east of Stanislawow in former
Poland yesterday, and Berlin
said steadily arriving Russian
reinforcements and increasing
assaults on that front indicated
the imminence of another big
Red Army push toward the Car
pathian Mountain passes.
A Hungarian Army communique
told of violent Soviet attacks in the
area of Kolomyja, which is 80 miles
southeast of Stanislawow and the
same distance northeast of the Ia
tar Pass leading into Hungarian
held Czechoslovakia.
Berlin broadcast the Hungarian
bulletin and quoted military men
of that country as saying the Rus
slams were massing men and ma
terials for a renewed drive toward
Hungarian-held territory.
More German Planes Downed.
Moscow several weeks ago an
nounced that the Red Army had
reached the Czech border. Since
then German and Hungarian an
Inouncements have told of Axis
countergains in the area.
A midnight Soviet bulletin said
the Red Air Force had destroyed 100
supply-laden Axis trucks, shot down
% German planes in combat and
destroyed another II on the ground
yesterday in continuing attacks on
German airfields, troop concentra-
tions and communications.
The regular communioue issued
earlier told of the sinking of four
more Axis ships, three of them

feet sank the three transports to-
falling more than 1000 tons, and
a patrol launch, the bulletin said,
making a total of 81 enemy vessels
sunk in a week of combined surface
and air attacks.
Other Ships Damaged.
An unspecified number of other
ships were damaged, said the broad
caSt-communique, recorded by the
Soviet monitor, in engagements in
the area of Khersonnes lighthouse,
just west of Sevastopol, and at
Kazachya Bay to the south.
Germany's daily communique
again told of furious Russian at
tackS on the lower Dnestr River
sector in the Tighina area, 12O miles
northeast of the Galati Gap de-
fense line protecting the Ploesti oil
fields, and said German troops
scored full defensive success"
Berlin also said the Russians had
brought up fresh troops and strong
bomber formations in attacks on the
Axis lines north of Iasi, Romanian
rail center IS miles northwest of
Tighina, but were repulsed. Moscow
had nothing to say.
The only other sector mentioned
by Berlin was in former Poland
southwest of KoWel, ITO miles from
Warsaw. The Germans said their
troops wiped out an encircled Rus
sian group and took 1000 prisoners

High Schoels Teach II
No DOUBT the air will be a much more
natural element to our young sons and daugh-
tiers. In the last two or three years, more than
half the country's 28,OOO high schools have
introduced basic courses in aviation, and half
a million high school youngsters last year
studied at least one aspect of It. AS matter
of fact, more than %, 600 high school students
last wear passed the CAA's written examina-
tions for private pilots licenses.
You and l. under present regulations, will
have to wade through six and a half pounds
of textbooks - by actual weight - to get set
for those two-hour exams. Well have to get
at least a mark of TO- or keep taking the exams
over until we do. And we'll have to answer

Many flying schools say they will teach

Dewey Has the Facts

THE American people expected a
i vigorous and convincing cam
paign from Gov. Thomas E. Dewey,
and they are getting it, and they
LIKE it,.
The New Deal administration
likewise expected strong and sue
CESSFUL campaign from Gov.
Dewey-which is why so many New
Dealers infiltrated into the Republi.
can party before the nominating con-
vention, hoping less formidable
presidential candidate would emerge.
1t is unnecessary to say that the
New Deal administration, although
getting what it anticipated from Gov.
Dewey, does NOT like it.
1t especially does not like cam
paign speeches of the type Gov.
Dewey made in st. Louis.
1t was a vigorous and convincing
speech.
1t fits appropriately into the
strong and successful campaign Gov.
Dewey is making for the presidency.
THE people liked it for the simple
i reason that it told the TRUTH
about the issues in this campaign
the precise reason that the New Deal
did NOT like it.
"The NeU Deal has been taken
ouer by the combination of corrupt
big city bosses, Communists and
fellow traUelers," said Gov. Dewey.
The people know that is the truth,
and so DOES THE NEW DEAL.
Earl Browder and his Communist
political association are holding ONE
coattail of the New Deal.
Sidney Hillman and his Political
Action Committee are holding the
OTHER.
And there are only two tails to
the coat.
"Ten million heroes tDiu be COM
ing home, entitled to the fruits OF
uicfory-a prospecting country With
security and opportunity to get
ahead" said Gov. Dewey.
"Is the tired and quarrelsone
Ncw Deal ALL America has to
ofer?" he wondered.
"Musf we 60 back to leaf raking
and doles7
"Must our returning heroes go on
the same old WPA?"
