There are no favorites getting special privileges among the civilian population. Manpower Mobilized What the British army is, I do not know, but the complete absence of men of military age in civilian clothes indicates that the military manpower has been rather com' pletely mobilized. If there have been the brains to organize the civilian life of the nation so well, I am convinced that the army Is by now well organized and ready to play a major role. England has at last become a thoroughly developed totalitarian military power in which the entire life of the nation has been organ ized into a gigantic military ma chine. While the 40,300,000 people of Britain cannot equal the 80,000, 000 Germans, it is safe to say that Britain as a military power is stronger today than she ever was and she can grow still stronger as her organization increases in efficiency.

The finest part of this whole ac complishment is that pretty com plete freedom of opinion still re mains and one-can criticize without fear of being pounced upon by the Gestapo. I have yet to have any Englishman speak to me in a whisper as a few Germans did to me in 1939 before the war began. Americans need have no worries about what Britain is going to do henceforth in this war. Britain is "shooting the works" and hence, forth "will shoot them with a maximum effect. MRS.

ROBINSON i $150,000 Received During First Two Months of Year Says Auditor Expenditures of the City of Tucson for the first two months of the fiscal year were S150.Sol.44 and receipts were S204.439.62, James T. Slanders, city auditor, reported yesterday. The receipts were $16,261.16 more than had been anticipated for the period, Manders reported, with every department showing an overage, ranging from SS.751 in taxes, in miscellaneous income, down to S3S.33 in permits and inspections. Housing Payment Most of the excess in miscellaneous income was due to the payment of S4.450 to the city by the Tucson Housing Administration for the land to be occupied by the proposed Negro low-cost housing unit. Estimates of receipts are based on past experience with the various accounts, while those for expenditures are based on the total allotted for the whole year divided by the number of months.

F.leren Overspent On this basis, 11 accounts were overspent by S16.7S7.2S, and the other 11 were under by Manders reported. Of the overage, SI 0.072.19 was in the city water department, where the "cos of equipment and material bought at the opening of the j-ear was augmented by heavy power expense incident to dr--weather pumping activity. Vacation payrolls and purchase of new equipment were responsible for the overages in other departments, ranging from in the city hall down to $1.06 In the store department.

Greatest loss will be Kelley's books, some bought while a student at the University of Arizona, and others added to "his technical library.

All of them were left in Manila, he said. Closely quizzed and given censorship instructions by the FBI and intelligence branches of the government in New York, Kelley could say little about relations of the various nationalities located in the internment camp, and the siege on Hong Kong after the first attack. All Civilians The internment camp was entirety of civilians. Troop Internees were quartered elsewhere, and the camp, probably half men and half women, contained a number of wives of military men. Kelley said.

When the repatriation party of approximately Americans left, about 50 stayed, he said.

(JP) Six state officials and em ployes, including Revenue Commissioner J. O. Gallegos, were indicted late today by the Santa Fe County Grand Jury, which concluded its twennonth inquiry with a sweeping criticism of state affairs. In its badly-worded report, cover ing 11 pages and accompanying the indictments, the jury said Gover nor John E. Miles appeared to have been the recipient of a division of insurance premiums from state empIo3-es, and recommended that such a practice be prohibited by law in the next legislature.

Reviewr Biting In a biting, review of various de partments of the state government. the school tax division was char acterized as employing "loose practices" in its accounting methods, and the state highway department of gross mismanagement in its equipment and material purchases. It "strongly condemned" what it said was the "common and accepted practice" of employing political deadheads in the various state departments. The jury also took notice of Supreme Court -Justice T. M.

Ma-bry's recent "censure" of the jury in connection with alleged disclosures of grand jury evidence, made in the current Democratic primary campaign relating to purchase of highway equipment without bids. Facts Asked "We feel," the jury said, "in all fairness, the real facts should be given as extensive publication as was the statement of the court, in effect censuring the grand jury, without any basis for such." The six persons indicted were named in two indictments each, and charged with obtaining money from the state under false pretenses and with falsifving state records.

Soviet troops also were counterattacking in this area, "as a result which German troops sustained heavy losses." Red Army troops also were still clinging to the Axis flank in the Kletskava area inside the Don river bend and even "improved their positions," the Russians said. German Claims (The German high command announced the attackers of Stalingrad had reached the western suburbs, and said the German armies of the Crimea had crossed the Kerch Strait with air and sea support to join the coastal columns in the offensive above Novoros-sisk.

North of Stalingrad German troops were declared to be virtually blockading the Volga, reportedly sinking 3 gunboats, 2 monitors, 6 freighters and other smaller craft, presumably with cannon fire.)

It was perhaps pointed out to him that this attitude would be most favorable for Spanish hopes of economic assistance so far as th United States wan concerned. Spain, in dire economic need, can expect little help from the rest of Europe at this time.

Rights Involved The defense contended that cer-j tain phases of the President's or-i der establishing the commission' violated a congressional enactment' stipulating the manner in which military trials should be conduct-1 ed.

Biddle denied any violation, but argued that even if the act had been violated, the powers which the constitution vests in the President in time of war give him the I right to supersede an act of Con-j gress. If this contention is made by Biddle in connection with the anti-inflation program, the Supreme court's formal opinion in the saboteurs' case, forthcoming at the term starting next month, would be watched with additional interest. It is entirely possible, however, that the court might not treat of this phase of the saboteurs' case, or that if it does, the opinion may be held to have no bearing on the anti-inflation program, Dry air ftadlt 112 EAST efSTREET SWIM PICNIC AT Wefmore's POOL SATURDAY SUNDAY MONDAY CO -HIT "STRANGE CASE" OF DR.

They know they will have to suffer further restrictions on food, clothing and heating and suffer enormous and tragic casualties b.ut they foresee it all with calm self-assurance and equanimity. I have not heard one word of complaint, not one breath about peace. On the other hand. I have heard repeatedly the statement that they were going to win or go down fighting, that there would never be a surrender. Prime Minister Winston Churchill is adored by his countrymen more than President Roosevelt by his countrymen.

British politicians are united. The government is strong. Churchill may have to reorganize his cabinet if another severe reverse comes but there Is little probability that he will be overthrown even after a reverse in the field of battle. AVar Machine Next to the matter of morale, the most apparent thing is the smoothness with which the government war machine is functioning. Of course, contrast between London and Washington makes this especially apparent but it is such a contrast to the blundering that was so evident here in 1939.

I have run Into no Puck passing, iuacn man knows his place and has the nower to act within his place. If he hasn't got the power, he knows who has. You get none of the run-around that you get in Washington. My personal experience has been with the ministry of information which functions so smoothly, fairly and effectively that it wins the praise of experienced, cynical newspapermen. But I can see that other departments are functioning equally well.

The food ministry ha3 done a magnificent job. The British people are eating better than the German people were in 1939. I say this from personal observation. They are eating infinitely better versitv In Manila. Blessing and his wife were University of Arizona graduates in 191R.
