Autumn rides are pleaSanter
when the interior of the family
automobile is clean and fresh to
match the desert and mountain
air.
Grace Ryan, Agricultural Ex-
tension Service home management
specialist says sprucing up the in
side of the family car after sum-
mer vacation trips will be time
and care well invested when trade
in-time comes along, too.
To keep the interior OF your
car looking new, she suggests go
ing over the upholstery fabric and
carpet floor covering with a whisk
broom or vacuum cleaner at least
once a month.
Occasional wiping with cloth
dampened with dry cleaning fluid
will freshen these surfaces. How
ever, don't .saturate the uphol-
stery - some seat cushions and
arm rests are padded with foam
rubber which deteriorates when it
comes in contact with dry clean
ing fluid. Soaking the carpet will
also be harmful if rubber COM
pound is part of the construction.
Washing plastic seat covers pro-
tects them and will keep them
looking fresh and bright. Paste wax
will also clean and protect genuine
and imitation leather upholstery
trim. Apply a thin film of paste
wax with damp cloth to small
area, rubbing to loosen the dirt.
Fold the cloth to a clean portion
from time to time to avoid rubbing
in grit.
An application of cream wax
to the dashboard and fittings in
side the family car will improve
the appearance and make the fin
ish on these interior surfaces easier
to maintain.

The internal security of the

only with the full cooperation OF
all patriotic Americans. AS our
mobilization program becomes q

who would like to weaken America

The Communist Party, U. s. A.,

It Is imperative that the public

and possessions are handled by the
Central Intelligence Agency and
not by the FBI.
Through established channels
of liaison there is a free flow of
information between the various
agencies which have designated
responsibilities in the various fields
pertaining to our national security.
In the presidential directives of
1899, 1943 and July "a, 1850,
which established the FBI's basic
responsibilities in the internal Sc
curity field, each individual citi-
zen was requested by the Presi-
dent to assist in carrying out
these duties by promptly report
ing directly to the FBI all in
formation which relates to es-
pionage, sabotage and subversive
activities. This is a responsible
ity placed on all loyal citizens
and patriotic organizations and a
role which Is vital to the success
full operation of the Nations gen.
eral security program.
The FBI's function in the Sc
curity field is purely investigative
in nature. 1t does not grant
clearances of any type, nor does it
classify any individual or organi-
zation as subverSive.
Espionage may be generally de-
fined as the obtaining of conf
Dental information regarding the
national defense and furnishing
| it to unauthorized persons to the
detriment of the United States or
the advantage of foreign power.
Sabotage is any act designed to
destroy or damage national de-
fense materials-to impede pro-
duction, injure plant premises. to
destroy public utilities, or to pro-
duce defective national defense
goods.
Public Responsibility Stressed.
Under the term "subversive ac-
tivities" would be activities on the
part of any individual or organiza-
ton which are intended to forci-
bly, overthrow the American Gov
ernment or to give aid to It's
enemies.
While these are only general
definitions. the public should be
alert to report all information d.
rectly to the FBI which relates to
the following specific matters:
/. Allegations of espionage. sab
otage or subversive activities.

BERLIN, Aug. 13 (NANA) -
Shorthand notes of Hitler'S din.
ner-t table conversations during
1941 and 1912, published in bool
form, are becoming Germany
best seller of the year. Issued by
the Institute for History of the
National Socialist Epoch" the
book is likely to become a success
sor to "Mein Karnp" as a text
book for would-be fuehrers and
neo-Nazis.
DR.. HenryPicker was the official
stenographer who faithfully re-
corded every relevant and irrele-
want comment which fell from
Hitler's lips during two years. He
was encouraged by Martin Bor-
man, who used Hitler's casual ut
terances to back up his own po-
litical maneuvers. In special cases
Hitler would initial his remarks
after they had been typed out.
Most of his table talk took place
at Hitler's battle headquarters ir
East Prussia and his "WerWolf
advanced headquarters in the
Ukraine. 1t is a combination ot
Icynicism, inaccuracy and common
sense.
The 233 quotations range from
philosophical comment on the ma
Iture of women. and structures or
smoking and the eating of meat
to plans for eXterminating 100000
people in the event of an, attempt
to overthrow the NaZi regime.
Obsessed on Subject of Britain.
Many are about Britain, SUBJ
ject which seemed to obsess Hit
ler. In one extract he asserts, 1T
is proof of the hypocrisy of the
English that in peacetime they
populate our operas and theaters,
our Bayreuth festival, etc, yet
they now describe us as bar
barianS. The English lie more
than any other race in the world.
How could they rule their empire
without being masters in the art
of lying? 1t is time the Germans
learned to be just as dishonest as
the English"
Despite this, he says, THE end
of this war will be the start of
Germany's lasting friendship with
Britain. The condition for this
friendship will be the knockout
blow which Britain must accept
first: 1918 must be erased. I shall
not live to see it, but I rejoice for
the day when England and Ger
many will together make war on
Germany will then have
found the right ally. The British
have an astounding impudence,
but one cannot help admiring
them"
After dinner on July "a, 1912,
Hitler said he thought anti
Semitism was stronger in Britain
than in Germany. 1t was a Ger
man poet who glorif1ed the Jew
as Nathan the Wise, while Eng
lands Shakespeare characterized
him forever as Shylock.
He believed Britain was on the
point of capitulating in 1912. IF
some one had the courage to say
now Let's have peace now before
we incur serious casualties 80 per
cent of all the English would
back him"
No Faith in FortunetelIing.
In his table talk, Hitler showed
no faith in fortunetelling and
astrology. He called horoscopes
"a swindle believed in especially
by the British and Americans, ,"
