Poor Digestion? G1 c1 !
 headachy? % Sour or Upset? Ou Tired.listIess? %

Do you feel headachy and upset due to poorly digested food? To feel cheerful and happy again your food must be digested properly.
 Each day. Nature must produce about two pints of vital digestive juice to help digest your food. If Nature fails, your food may remain undigested- leaving you headachy and irritable.
 Therefore, you must increase the flow of this digestive juice. Carter's Little Liver Pills increase this flow quickly often in as little as 30 minutes. And, you're on the road to feeling better.
 Don't depend on artificial aids to counteract indigestion-when Carter's Little Liver Pills aid digestion after Na- lures own order Take Carter's Little Liver Pills as directed. Get them at any drugstore. Only 25f.

The recent departures from the

cret messages from London was
one advising the Dutch under
ground of the pending Anthem in
vasion, with the view of soliciting
underground support.
When the parachutist remnants
had to fight their way out of the
Anthem salient after a relief col
umn was unable to cross the Ned
er Rhine nobody suspected this
man. He had crossed to Allied
lines when underground forces
struck in cooperation with the
British attack.
He came under scrutiny of in
telligence men, however, and soon
sufficient evidence piled up to
warrant his arrest. One problem
remained. He was an extremely
cagey individual, who always car.
ried a pistol. He was such a SUI.
perior shot that it was considered
inadvisable to try to disarm him
by force.
So a ruse was hit upon.
The officer was invited to q
cocktail party. He thoroughly en-
joyed the party. But when he tried
to depart he was arrested. He was
handed over to British authorities,
since Anthem fell within the 21st
Army Groups jurisdiction. He
was TOWN to Britain on orders
of Supreme Headquarters.
The informant said he believed
the Germans shot by the officer
as proof of his loyalty to the re-
sistance movement probably were
from a list furnished by the Ger
man Gestapo and would have been
already killed.

ORGANIZATION

| WASHINGTON (LPA) - The
very movement that is most
staunchly anti-Nazi is receiving
very little encouragement from
American Military Government
authorities in Germany, charges
the AFL publication Labor S
Monthly Survey in its current
issue.
Before Hitler" the AFL
statement points out, "the labor
movement was one of Germany's s
strongest democratic forces. Hit
Ter did all in his power to de-
stroy it. Today German union
lists can take leadership in re-
building democracy"
Despite the renewal of activity
by German unionists, the Survey
goes on, very often the Amer
lean Military Government has
refused to authorize union or
ganization or to heed the sugges-
tions of these union anti-Nazi
committees This policy has
stifled the rebirth of democracy
and prevented the elimination of
Nazis."
Here is what the AFL pro-
poses be u. S. policy in encour-
aging growth of unions: Bona
fide union anti-NaZi committees
should be fully endorsed by the
occupation authorities SO they
can function effectively. Union
funds, which were seized by the
Nazi labor front, should be re-
turned to the unions. Social in
Surance funds should be restored
and the social security laws
effective before the Nazi regime
should again be put into opera
ton. A clear and fortnight
directive along these lines is
urgently needed"
AFL representatives should be
allowed to go into Germany to
work under the Allied Control
Council, the Survey urges.
"A policy which will permit
all non-war industries to start
production and workers to get
back to their jobs is of the
urgency" if any program
of long rehabilitation is to
succeed, the AFL concludes.
