One WORLD

Which Is the Enemy?

fccIlnR is W among ldpoI
members OF parliament that the British
government has its friends and enemies
mixed. Their concern over the decline
in trade with the Soviet Union was
heightened, Allied Labor News reports
from London, when newly released fig
ur~s for January showed a sharp in
crease in exports to Franco Spain while
exports to the Soviet Union dropped al
most to zero.
SO far the British. government has
brushed aside labor demands for a COM
plete break in political and economic
relations with the Franco regime. Pro-
gressive groups point out that il Britain
wants to fulfill its goal Of increasing
exports IS per cent over the 1889 level,
the U.S.S.R. could develop into one Of
its best customers.
Figures on export OF machinery dur
ing January provide an even more strik-
ing example Of Britain's lopsidcd policy.
The amount shipped to Spain totaled
$33,7@ while shipments to Russia
amounted to SOP. No electrical equip
mcnt was shipped to Russia during
January while Spain received electrical
supplies worth 100000.
Millions of dollars worth OF electrical
equipment manufactured to fill Soviet
orders have been lying in dock stores
for more than six months. Soviet offers
to transport the equipment in Soviet
ships have been turned down.
Labor Courts Set Up in Germany
New labor courts have been set up
in the Russian zone in Germany. They
are based on democratic principles of
full equality for all citizens, regardless
OF race, creed or nationality.
Workers and management will be
represented in equal numbers and labor
unions will propose suitable chairmcn
and assessors. The courts jurisdiction
extends to all disputes between labor
and management and illegal actions.

Knight said he concurrcd with the
suggestion Of Foreign Minister Ernest
Ecvin OF Great Britain that IAN Anglo
American-Russian oil agreement would
solve the conflict over oil between the

Knight proposed that the UNO Sc

cess TO the worlds oil resources "on an
equitable basis" The agreement should
also include a code OF fair labor prac-

Nazis Were WORKING
On Planes 10 Bomb
New York Area
BY the Assooioted P.sss

Hitler's scientists were at work
on a supersonic bomber designed
to lombard New York, the Army
Air Forces disclosed yesterday-one
item on terror list of 1856 secret
weapons they we're striving to per-
feet to improve at the wars end.
Col. D. L. Putt, deputy chief of
the Air Materiel Commands tech
nical intelligence division, said the
bomber was expected to reach l54
miles above the earth 1t was never
finished but Col. Putt expressed
belief that time was the only OBJ
stacle" to its completion
The Germans hoped to destroy
any city on earth with a feet of
100 of these bombers within the
space of a few days operation, -
Col. Putt said.
Col. Putt drafted the official re-
port on the Nazis' developments of
guided missiles and other ultra
modern weapons.
Range Estimated at 5000 Miles.
One giant long-range winged
rocket, which was in design stage,
was to carry smaller rockets These
were to take off on their own at a
specific point, attain speeds up to
$500 miles an hour. and finish their
5raJectories in a long glide. The
range of this weapon was calculated
at 5000 miles, sufficient to span the
Atlantic
Other weapons, listed in a resume
of Col. Puts report published by
the official AAF Review, included
rockets with which the Nazis hoped
TO break up the Allied bomber for
nations which level German cities.
The German missiles, Col. Putt
said, used every known type of re-
mote control and fusing means, in

South Atomic V-2s.
Although the Nazis lacked the
atomic bomb, the Review said there
was reason to believe they hoped
until the end to be able to perfect
some sort of atomic explosive to
arm the V-2s with which thev
blasted London and Antwerp.
Col. Putt reported guided missiles
relatively the cheapest of weapons.
The entire W. program was esti-
mated to have cost the Germans
s21 10000 Countermeasures OF the
Ailles were calculated to have cost
tour times as much as the entire
German flying bomb program.
The AAF Review said that be-
tween June l3 and September 3,
1914, total of 1854 Wis landed
IN Greater London. killing 5.476
persons, destroying $4,000 buildings
and homes and damaging 1000, 900
more.
In addition, 1882 Allied flyers lost
their lives bomoarding the launch
ing sites.
Thus the buzz bombs alone, in q
campaign of three months, were
responsible for about a tenth of the
number of all British deaths from
all conventional aerial bombing,
