are now using the technique per- fected by Goebbels. When an American newspaperman tells the truth about them-they reply with an orgy of lies and name-calling Sprees :. It reminds us of Goeb- bels tale that was popular during the war: Goebbels, after all, did get to Heaven. One day while walking around up there he came to huge telescope pointing downwards through rift in the clouds. The sign said: See Hell. Only five cents" When Goebbels looked through the telescope he saw lux uries, wine, women and song-all that he had been craving for in the responsibility of Heaven . So Joe got a transfer and descend- ed. On his arrival below he was tortured with fire and pitchforks. When he asked his torturers about what he had seen through the tele- scope all Hell roared with laughter Oh" they ha-ha' d, that's just propaganda for foreign consump- tion!"

Frank L. KluckhOhn, the Times Buenos Airess boy, reports our namby-pamby attitude toward Peron hasn't changed his pro-Nazi policies. It seems that appeasement IS taking another facing which shouldn't surprise any sane person.

A newsmag reports that a Mis- sissippi paper (which fought Bilbo on it's editorial page) stated: Those individuals who won with Bilbo are happy. Those who lose are happy, too, for they have the satisfaction of knowing that Walter Winchell and lot of his ilk (meaning, we presume, nearly a dozen national magsD failed to impress Missis- Sippians."
 All of which sums up what's wrong with that Mississippian; He would rather keep fighting the Civil War than fight to protect civil liberties. He would isolate Mississippi from the other AT states-when Bilbo and Rankin should be isolated from all 48.

Joe Snlashes To Win In 1 Round

New York-Spectators had hard ly warmed their seats at Yankee Stadium here Wednesday night when Joe Louis, heavyweight champion of the world, retained his title by knocking out Tami Mauriello in 2:O9 of the first round of their bout. Tami will be able to tell his grandchildren that, all though twas a famous victory - for Joe - their grandpappy land ed with his right what was in- tended to be a haymaker which staggered the Brown Bomber.
 Tami's explanation, phrased not too elegantly, was that he was 'too (deleted by censor) careless" in not following up, as the 38,494 onlookers and Joe expected, his right-wing attack. Joe's powerful left, however, quickly silenced to grogginess his latest challenger.
