The reviewer's remarks are based on a book about Argentina which attempts to whitewash its Hitlers. This gives you an idea of the type of bunk it is.

itary government" That'i the Telephone 1109 All Departments argument appeasers used for By PAUL MALLON WASHINGTON, Nov. 14. Mr. Ickes, who generally says the wrong thing at the wrong time for the administration is out now with his quadrennial refrain a little softer voiced this time that the press neither led nor followed public opinion in this election. Not many will accept his challenge to discuss the facts, because these are already too apparent to the people.

It took courage for anyone operating under the thumb of the government to oppose Mr. Roosevelt. As everyone knows, newsprint distribution is controlled by the administration and this is the life's blood of newspapers. Their ability to survive and their profits actually depend on the amount of print paper the government gives them. Those newspapers who decided to oppose Mr.

Roosevelt obviously could not have been inspired by any of the baser instincts business or selfishness, which is more than can be said for Mr. Ickes. This time it was apparent to most people also that the press appeals on both sides were directed toward the intelligence of the people. This reflects the fact that their decisions were made in good conscience. The fanning of emotions was practised, with abandon and, largely by the extremists among whom the administration was more than amply represented by the Ickes crowd.

I would not bother to point to circumstances so glaring, were" it not for the fact that there is a constructive job in relation to news and comment that Mr. Ickes could be doing, instead of promoting post-election discussions about a campaign in which nearly 22,000,000 people were for Dewey and more for Roosevelt (and not Germany's Latest Weapon Of Destruction Germany's latest weapon the V-2 flying bomb is working destruction in South England as well as elsewhere, and there seems to be little doubt that the Allies are speeding up the war in Europe on account of it. Prime Minister Churchill, after intimating the war in Europe might last into next year, now follows with a statement that the final general offensive has begun with the disclosure about the V-2. This suggests an incentive for a general offensive through the winter and to capture V-2 bases. For certainly the big V-2 cannot be fired from planes or submarines.

Though the smaller jet-propelled bombs may be launched from the air or from watercraf the V-2 must be fired from land bases. When Churchill said the V-2 bombings of Britain had been going on for weeks it was no news to the British soldiers in Holland. And there was every reason why they should be told. Knowledge of this fresh ordeal for Britain spurred the British and Canadian soldiers to get Antwerp and they displayed fighting unsurpassed in ferocity in British history. Antwerp is a vital port of supply to maintain strength to pound the enemy through the winter and build up reserve strength' for the spring.

General Eisenhower did not have to" wait on the Churchill statement for news of the bombing by the V-2 as a factor in his plans. And if the German announcements are true, Parisians must also know how much damage this new weapon can do. Accepting the report that the range of the V-2 is at least 300 if not 400 miles, Paris is only 200 miles from the German bases in Alsace from which the big robots can rise 60 or 70 miles in the stratosphere over General Patton's Army on their way to their target. All along the northern part of this German front from Cologne to the sea there is enemy-held ground within 800 miles of London. On the other side of the Rhine from Cologne there is plenty of room 400 miles from London for V-2 bases.

To capture a V-2 base will be an everlasting honor for any division. jlll THE SUN ill 1 SERVICE FLAG I ill I pampering Hitler.

In offering Levy as a "friend of labor" Rose naturally invited inspection of Levy's record and this led to the discovery that Levy had engaged in equally flagrant association with underworld gangsters, and betrayers of labor, at that. Moreover Levy had picked up a tremendous profit. Levy had been counsel for Local 306 of the dirty racket known as the Movie and Theatrical Workers' Union from Aug.

But Ickes does not deserve so much attention as a press condition which may wreck the peace. It will have far more to do with world freedom of the future than The Mayor of our town says you cannot shake your mop out of the kitchen window. Especially at the Mayor. I think our Mayor was elected on two tickets. One for parking.

But lately he started to get the paternal complex and do our thinking for us. Even a half-wit like me wants to do his own, if it's only a part-time job. I've looked up the Declaration of Indignation and the original Consternation and I've found nothing about shaking mops out of kitchen windows. I do not agree with the Mayor that map shaking is filthy, dangerous and pernicious In my home town they shook carpets, tablecloths and laundry bags out of the window. The most important society lady in town shook a dainty dinner napkin out of the dining room window on Monday mornings.

We thought it was very neat house-keeping. When her husband sued for a divorce we found she was flirting with the handsome butcher across the way. Naturally, the Mayor is entitled to figure if a table-cloth out of the window is being aired or whether it is a flag of truce. The mop is another problem. There are two kinds.

The dry or dusty mop. The wet or soggy mop the foreign-born than with the This is one of the most shocking exposes we have ever come across: A short time before Pearl Harbor, Cong. Ham Fish held secret meetings with Jap agents and a Jap military leader. Invitations for these meetings stressed the need to avoid publicity This is the same Ham Fish who voted against fortifying Guam, claiming it would be an arrow aimed at Japan's heart Many bullets were aimed at the hearts of Americans before we re-conquered Guam This is the same Ham Fish who once urged that Japan should have naval equality with America. But while Fish wanted to increase the size of Japan's navy he voted against American defense measures This is the same Ham Fish who urged that we share the Philippines with Japan, the Philippines where many Americans are now sharing graves because Japan invaded them.

We speak of liberating the countries we occupy, but we will have accomplished nothing which took only part of his time and drew $97,000.

There can be no freedom anywhere without freedom of news. You can readily see that spoonfed news from any of world's nations can bring on war, as easily as aggression, indeed is an indis- ject, "The U. S. Navy Past and Pres ent." Edtor Beard is considered an authority on the history of the Navy and is es- superstitions and fears of the immigrant colonies in the big Eastern cities. Last year, Rose was one of those who selected Matthew M.

Levy as a candidate for the New York Supreme Court on the ground that Levy was a "friend of labor," and I w'ill go into that to give you a line on this individual who had the effrontery to ask Dwey to repudiate a good American against whom the worst charge of the opposition was that he was "honest." The regular, Tammany candidate for the Supreme Court in that election was Thomas Aurelio, a typical, low-grade machine politician and lawyer, similar in many ways to. Senator Robert Wagner, the "great of the New Deal. Shortly before election, Frank Hogan. the district attorney and Dewey's successor in that office, showed up a connection between pecially equipped to treat of the part pensible preparation of all aggres as "a good American" Who is this Frank W.

That sort makes a very poor bouton-niere. I imagine that the Mayor was sideswiped one foggy morning by a mildewed mop swishing through the murk. The pendulum swings as far to the right as it does to the left. And it is an inexorable law of compensation of forces that you cannot judge the contents of the mop by the length of the handle. Well, suppose the Mayor did get a bit of reinforced succotash in the puss? And a second helping, of nibbled corn cob with a dash of nectar of drainage?

Yet if only one side had been presented in this election campaign, any inducement for factual presentation would have been eliminated and aggression domestically could nave been accomplished. vermin, and it was absolute knowledge that Bioff was a convicted brothel-keeper and was in jail when, in June, 1940, Levy went to the convention of the racket and sang Browne's praises as a "labor leader." At the same convention, Browne eulogized Bioff as a martyr suffering persecution and Levy took' no exception to this, either, although he knew Bioff was Browne's personal agent and, by that time, Hollywood and New York reeked with the stench of their iniquity.

In the election, the voters compared the two associates of gangsters and preferred Aurelio. This gives you a line on Rose so now let us consider what Bricker said about the Oswego camp, and the facts of the case. Bricker said Roosevelt deceived Congress and the people when he announced that the 1,000 refugees would be "predominantly" women and children. They were not and nobody who was watching the plot ever expected that women and children would predominate. der states, her consistent hedging on matters of international co-operation seem to the layman inexcusable.

The Soviet is now the No. 1 European military power, and as such should be able to work safely and sincerely with the other nations of the world. She has said she will. But on the record it seems she is to be the worry wart of all attempts at international postwar organization. The United States is still in position to squeeze some positive cooperation from Russia, if such drastic action becomes necessary.

President Roosevelt should make it thoroughly clear to. the Marshal that the American people will soon insist on that pressure being used unless he dispels our fast growing suspicions with a favorable public statement backed by actions. If the Big Three cannot work in accord, certainly it is futile to expect a world-wide peace organization to be effective and lasting. that Tennesseans have played in this arm of national defense. His address will be heard with much interest by members of the Madison County Historical Society and others interested in the subject.

Jackson is highly pleased that Editor Beard has come to this city to speak to our Historical Society. He is one of the foremost newspaper men of the state and enjoys the distinction of editing one of the best dailies in Tennessee. Basic theory of this peace is that the world nations are to under Aurelio and some underworld stand each other in the future and live in friendliness. They cannot live in friendliness without genuine understanding and they cannot have understanding without a free flow of world news. The gangsters and quite a scandal ensued.

Hitler has been absolute in his dictatorship for more than a decade.

His control has been so complete that all Germany has come to think of government in terms of this one man. His personality has dominated the whole country, and has had a particularly powerful hold on the young generation which has been reared to fanaticism on the pep which he provided. True; within recent months it has been reported that the bloody-minded Himmler, chief of the Gestapo and the home troops, had got Hitler under his power and was the real ruler of Germany. Well, that could be true. However, if it is true I don't believe the German public knows it The people have stuck with the man who tore up the Treaty of Versailles and all but -conquered Europe but my observations in Germany lead me to believe they wouldn't long follow anyone else while their world is crashing about their ears.
