The W ashingto ion Merry Co., Round
By DREW PEARSON

WASHINGTON = The amazing thing about Nazi propaganda before Pearl Harbor was the Nazis' ability to suck in certain high-placed and supposedly intelligent Americans even after Hitler had invaded Po- land, overrun France and spread out over most of Europe. The Read CTS Digest, largest circulating mag azine in the world, was one of them.
 The report on Nazi activities in the SA, prepared by John Rogge of the Justice Department a1ter weeks of interviewing top Germans, shows that one editor of The Read CTS Digest, Paul Palmer, was III consultatios with Hans Thomsen, Hitlers personal Ambassador in Washington; also with Manfred Zapp, head of the official Nazl propaganda agency, Trans-Oceon News Service.
 The Rogge report, which many high politicoes tried desperately to suppress, also tells how Dewitt Wallace, owner and editor of The Readers Digest, hired Lawrence Dennis, now under indictment for sedition, to do some smear pieces against Henry Wallace, then Vice President of the United States.
 Apparently, Dewitt Wallace knew how "hot" Dennis was, because he warned him to cut out his fascistic

Canadian Denial

OTTAWA, Oc+. 25 F. Canaoiar Customs officials denied discrim- nation against United States truck ers on Alaskan Highways as charged by Donald Macdonald. The spokesman said apparently Macdonald referred to shipment in bond by truck. There is no treaty between Canada and the United States on the sutisco al- though trere is an a,1c aEsn1ent that Canada viii not dlscHuiuate against United States citizens in Customs matters. However we don't allow anybody to transport in bond by truck, not even our own citi- zens, so certainly it can't be called discrimination if we refuse this to people from the United States"
 At Edmonton w J. Eveleigh, Ad- ministrator of the Canadian sec- tion of the Highway, denied the truth of reported refusal to per init shipments.

ATTACK |S HURLED0N
 RUSSIANS
Churchill and AttIee Make Simultaneous Blasts
 Aqainst Communism

LONDON, Oct. 25 Winston Churchill and Prime Minister Att lee captured Britain's headlines to- day with almost simultaneous verb- al blasts against Russia in what appeared to be shaping up as a solid British front against Com munism.
 Churchill told his constituents in suburban Loughton last night that he had facts" and evidence" to support his uggestion-made in the form of a question before the House of Commons Wednesday, that the Soviet Union now has 200 divisions-more than 2,000, 900 men-on a full war footing in Russian-occupied Eastern Europe,
 He lauded Attlee's speech be- fore the Trades Union Congress at Brighton earlier in the day in which the Prime Minister bluntly accused Soviet leaders of erecting a wall of ignorance and sus- picion" between the Russian people and the rest of the world.
 "The fact that the British Gov ernment has decisively broken with the Communists and are fronted with them, although it does not immediately affect the course of affairs on this island said Churchill, has an important and beneficial result abroad, because there are countries on the con- tinent-like France-quivering un- der the Communist attack"
 He said his Wednesday speech should be regarded as "a serious warning" and added:
 II did not ask tke question (about Russian forces) without weighing very carefully the whole matter and without consulting others, my friends and colleagues, anst laying before them the evil dence on which I proceeded.
 "Nor did I ask the question without informing the Government before hand of my intentions, but you can take it from me that the facts I adduced are correct"
