I'm reply to your recent inquiry
with respect to the manner in
which Private Robert E. STRIPPING
should proceed to apply for dis
charge based on his Importance to
national health, safety or interest,
the following information is sub
mitted."
Then, after advising Thomas
how STRIPPING should apply to his
commander with supporting state
ments from the Congressman en-
phasizing the national Importance
of the work" General Persons con-
cluded:
In accordance with our CONVEX
sation, the War Department has
arranged to hold Private Strip
ling in this country for a sufficient
time to permit his discharge ap-
plication to be filed and acted
upon"
Accordingly, Private Striplings'
unit sailed for Japan. He was dis
charged and came. back to Wash
ingtOn.

EXIT FROM ARMY

The dodge, however, did not
work. Stripping was finally taken
into the Army. But not for long,
That great example of American
ism, j.. Parnell Thomas, once again
came to his rescue.
Stripping was with a military
government unit at San Antonio,
supposed to leave for Japan to help
General Macarthur police the coun-
try just after V-Day The unit had
been especially trained for this
duty
But although Stripping had been
in the Army only nine months,
whereas some men he was sup
posed to relieve in Japan had been
in four years. Congressman Thomas
took up the matter of his discharge
with Maj. Gen. Wilton B. Persons,
chief lobbyist for the Army on
Capitol Hill.
And on Oct. Is, 1915, General
Persons replied that he was keep
ing Private Stripping in this coun-
try" in order to have his diecharge
arranged. The General wrote
Thomas as follows:

them guilty in advance"
So the case has now been re-
ferred to Judge David Pine who has
agreed to hear motion November
as to whether the Wallenbergs,
the Swedish industrialists who took
over American Bosch, should be
required TO come to the U. S A. to
testify.
The Dulles law firm opposes this
motion, contending that the Wall
enbergs should not be made to
testify. The Justice Department
argues that their testimony is
necessary.
In the cloaking agreement, it is
specified that If the new Swedish
American head of American Bosch
dies or fails to serve, his success
or shall be John Foster Dulles
who by the way was slated to be
Dewey's Secretary of State.
Secret papers regarding the cloak
ing deal were discovered by the
American Army behind the wal
of bomb shelter in Stuttgart af-
ter u S. troops entered Germany

AFTER SEVEN MONTHS,
EARL WATKINS LEAVES
ST. AIMS HOSPITAL

After seven months in st. AIMS
Hospital, Earl Watkins, Electrical
Superintendent for the Alaska Ju-
neau Gold Mining Co., was dis
charged on Saturday afternoon. He
was admitted to the hospital on
May Is.
Watkins was injured when he
tested an electrical line following
the death of Danny Kunz, who was
electrocuted by 23,000-volt charge
from the power line.
Watkins was thrown to the
ground by the power of the charge
and suffered six broken ribs, frac-
tured vertebrae, burns and one
hand and arms and complete par
alysis of his left leg.
DR.. w. M. Whitehead, who was
attending physician, said that Wat
kins will have to wear back brace
for several months yet and still has
weakness in his left leg. Mr.. Wat
kins lives at Vanderbilt Hill on the
Glacier Highway.

1t probably will do harm to alter our pro-
paganda policy toward Russia indicated from
Washington. Up to have held propaganda
operations less facual accounts in keeping
with Secretary of State Marshals instructions when
he took about two years ago. Now, apparently,
Marshalls subordinates in the Department of State
remove few of their official nhbitions. We note,
for instance that Charles E. Saltzman Assistant
Secretary of State unburdened himself of few senti
ments close to his heart during the course of an adj
dress at the University of New Hampshire day or
ago. He said in so many words that the Soviet
rulers aim was world domination through Communism
and that they would soop to every straegem of
con suberfuge dupcity double dealing that serves
their purpose. One may rest assured that Mr.. Satz-
had to clear with the boss before he said that

have not been allowed up to now to return the COM
plments in kind 1t wasn't considered polite some

TRUMAN'S VICTORY

According TO the BIC short wave broadcast by
BIS listening post of Noxember received by The
Empire President Truman's victory remains good
talking point and papers discussed its significance
The Daily Mirror says that it that the American
people have taken decisive step the road to full
democracy have turned away from the old .radi-
ton of Wall Street and Big Business. The Mirror
declares that stories reaching this country about
American luxurious living have only balyhoo value.
1t is not the American working man and his family
who are having the good time they have found that
rising wages are no good against soaring prices So
now says the Mirror the American in the street
has spoken with clearer voice than ever before and
has demonstrated his power, his common sense and
his determination not to go backwards.
The News Chronicle calls the victory of the Demo-
Gratis "a triumph for the radical tradition" The
paper says:
THE days of privilege are drawing to a
close in all the democratic communities, in the
United States and Western Europe alike
The News Chronicle thinks that, at present, this
development is naturally favoring the left and center
parties 1t then questions how far the middle class
voter will influence the elections of governments,
pecaly in Britain at the next General Election and
it says that it is impossible to make an accurate
prediction The paper declares "A hundred different
factors may influence British middle class reactions
to five years of Socialist rule, and the game of
POLITICAL Blind Mans Buff must sgo on until the re-
suits are known - s.

PARNELL THOMAS
ANIERICANISM

Public indignation over Congress-
man J. Parnell Thomas practice
of getting salary "kickbacks" from
low-paid clerks and stenographers
has diverted attention from an
other little Parnellian practice =
namely keeping men away from
army combat and then collecting
from their families.
During the war, when Thomas
also was member of the impor-
tant Military Affairs Committee, he
got two soldiers-George Tiplitz of
and Edward Allen Kimmel of Long
Beach, N Y-transferred away
from combat. Later they and their
families contributed $3.50 to Mr..
Thomas reelection campaign,
though they did not live in the
Congressman New Jersey dis
trict.
However, humble apologies are
offered to Congressman Thomas
for undertaking his ability in this
direction. The two men mentioned
above were not his only achieve
ment in war-seryice lodging.
On Nov l6, 1914. Thomas wrote
letter to John Flagg, of the
Watson Flagg Engineering Co, "a

Dear John:
You you probably know, the Dies
Committee is winding up its affairs
this year. We have had with us
for the past six and one-half years
a man by the name of Robert
STRIPPING, whose title has been
chief clerk and chief investigator.
Stripping now finds himself in
a position where he either has to
get a job with company doing
defense work or be drafted.
HE is 80 years of age, he has
a wife and one child, and is max
ing his residence in Washington.
But would be willing to move any,
where in the east . If you think
that he would hit into your setup,
l am quite sure that he would be
pleased to talk the matter over
with you. Let me know if there
is any interest

Canadian Politics
prince Rupert Daily News

(Prince Rupert Daily News
The summer politically speaking, has been ac-
tive The by-elections and conventions to choose
tional party leaders have been singularly free from
extremes of language emphasized zeal.
In fact comparing public life in Canada now, with
what is a few generations ago, reveals i'm
pressive difference There plain speaking in the
eighties the nneties we'll later. Numerous
scoundrels at large So platform speakers de-
clared although no one was under compulsion to
believe such remarks. Campaigns hot as
prejudice old scores race, religion and hard times
could make them. The Northwest Rebellion, the
Manitoba school question and North Pacific sealing
were only a few of the higher lights Many other
matters brised with unsolved points.
Today Canada has her problems but differing in
character and wider basis. Unity continues to be
urgent but there is less necessity and Canada
gradually moving further away from purely domestic
disputes and drawing closer to nationhood and the
broader outlook.

The fact was that STRIPPING, the
chief investigator for committee
supposed to set an example to the
world of good Americanism, was
four times deferred. At that date,
just before the Battle of the Bulge,
men considerably older and with
more children were being induct-
