Inasmuch as the Republicans are estimated to have put out 50,000,000 Willkie buttons and the Democrats 21,000,000 Roosevelt emblems, the whole lot would make a pretty impressive pile of scrap metal for use in the defense pro-pram.

A mine laid by an unidentified belligerent off the Australian coast sank the American freighter City of Rayville, with loss of one life, as the first United States marine casualty of the war. British Prime Minister Winston Churchill, speaking in London, declared the "matchless workshops" of America would aid the British war effort. He praised President Roosevelt's aid to Britain in contrast to Hitler's declaration that Germany was too strong for any combination of foes. German and Italian sources indicated Hitler was rapidly organizing European productive capacity in an effort to offset whatver aid the United States may give Britain, either indirectly or as an ally.

Nazi sources again hinted that Soviet Premier Viacheslav Molo-tov would visit Germany in this connection or in connection with the Axis military campaign in the Balkans. Although several past rants'" bv-Berlin would make such a visit have failed to materialize, it was said today that nn announcement might be made within a few hours.

Slight new gains by the Greeks on the northern front were reported, with reinforced Greek columns pressing closer to the Italian base of Korintza, in Albania.
