 The D. A. ", as the organization is commonly called, has been com mended by many outstanding citi- zenS, but recently General Frank T.

He has made a speciality of salvag- ing sunken ships, but has also spent much of his time in exploring under sea wonders. Harvesting sponge beds in the Gulf of Mexico has been another of his hazardous undertak- ings on the ocean floor.
 Max Gene Nohl was born and still makes his home in Milwaukee. His father is an attorney and his uncle municipal court judge. Young Max was also destined for law, but in- stead insisted upon going to the Mass. Institue of Technology to study engineering, which proved sound preparation for his hazardous work. Still in his early thirties, un- married, and the owner of a flour ishing salvage business, Nohl admits his interest in water and undersea eXloration grew out of morbid fear of water when he was a child. His first underwater exploration was done at seventeen in what he calls a "tin can helmet" his first real div ing in Thoreaus Waldon Pond on an expedition with a group of young biologists from Harvard University, his first job was the recovery of a $250 set of false teeth for a Boston banker.
 Max Gene Nohl is also widely known for his other inventions and innovations in undersea equipment, including revolutionary new diving bells, sensational diving lung" and his patented underwater motion picture equipment. The war has, of course, upset many of his plans but. like so many others, he has simply put aside his plans for little while until Hitler is beaten. He will not forget them.

Roosevelt Indispensable Only 10 His Satellites, Republicans Point Out
the Republican National Committee

By the Republican National Committee
 THE myth of indispensability is the basis of an sarded as an indispensable man. When king died many tribes ndulged in mass suicides the slaughter of the kings entire household and domestic animals ot other forms of terrorized hysteT1a
 Later on, the myth of the Indispensable king was rationalized into the teory of the indestructble crown. The king never died, being always replaced by his heir at the very instant of death. With the slow progress of human intelligence these concepts altered further until the crown became simply sym bol of the common unity within nation
 HOWEVER the symbol of American unity is not a crown. No one man is authorized to assume as his personal decoration the flag which is the symbol of unNy. That is why the whole idea of tndspensa- bility of any President is foreign not only to the United States but to everyone who has real under standing and appreciation of our democracy. It is utterly alien to every of the fundamental rights proclaimed in the Declaration of Independence and guaranteed by the constitution.
 Yet Senator Truman vice. presidential candidate, and rossible successor to the "indispensable' MT Roosevelt says: "The very future of the peace and prosperity of the world depends upon his reelection in November" Even allowing for customary campaign exaggeration that is pretty big claim. It ought to make those who believe it as anxious about MT Roosevelts health were the prehistoric tT1oesmen who knew the death of king meant their own oe- cease.
 But there are no signs that the New Dealers are actually worried about MT. Roosevets health They only concerned about his reelection which sug-  so much as it is the continuation of certain of his personal satellites in power. That is the real mean ing of the theory of ndispensabiity, as 1t is being applied to Franklin Roosevelt.
 Who then is the indispensable group which MT. Roosevelts defeat would toss out internationally? Obviously, it is the men who hold office through election by the voters of this counry by consent of the Congress; the men who could retain their slippery hold on Truman, perhaps even more easily than they have on MT. Roosevelt. The men who know they would be exposed, and expelled from power under President Dewey.
 To these men and their hidden masters, MT Roosevelt is indeed indispensable Through him they they have attacked the Congress of the United States continuously for 12 years. Under his pro- lection they have assiduously derided every tradi tonal American belief. If they can keep him in of- flee long enough to reach old age, they dream of taking over in his name the whole government for their own purposes. This has happened. throughout history, to republics which abandoned democracy for belief in an indispensable man. It can happen here.
 It will not happen under Thomas Dewey.

 Partisanship aside, we can all take pride in the ttiumphs of our President and Commander Chief -"the Champ" as Wendell Wllkie called him. We can take pride, too in the enemies he has nade-it Ter and Goebbels, Mussolin Japanese war-lords and all their duizlings-and those among who in their blind hate and to their eternal shame, shout whis per the Na1 line.

The war is not won, but victory Is now in sight. And there's the peace too, to be won-a just and during peace built the foundations already laid down by the President and Secretary of State Hull.

Cromwell Can Claim
Share in Income Of
Wife, Lawyer Says
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEWARK, N. j., May 12.-Interesi
on half of Doris Duke Cromwell'i
vast New Jersey holdings would be
tied up by the court decision thai
she remains the legal wife of James
H. r. Cromwell despite her Reno
divorce, Mr.. Cromwells attorney
Meyer Ruback, said yesterday.
The properties include Mrs. Crom-
wells "$5,000,000 to $10,000,000 Duke
Farms estate near Somerville, Mr.
Ruback said, but he indicated he
would seek to prove this was only a
small part of the total.
I'VE contend there are other hold
ings much vaster which will be in
volved in this property question -
he stated. He would not estimate
the value of the other property.
The limited divorce for which Mr..
Cromwell has filed suit against his
wife would retain his lifetime rights
to claim the interest on half her
property should she predecease him,
Mr.. Ruback said. He added that
Mrs. Cromwell technically still has
the right to dispose of her property,
but the new owner would have to
honor Mr.. Cromwell's claim to half
the interest for as long as he might
survive her.
Known as "curtesy rights" in legal
parlance, Mr.. Cromwell's claim is
based on a New Jersey law of 1928,
Mr.. Ruback said, and if Mrs. Crom-
wells property should be judged as
not coming under that law because
acquired prior to it, MIR. Cromwell
would be entitled to all and not half
of the interest, under the old English
common law which applied up to
that time.
MIR. Cromwell is 47, his wife 81.
