Hitler's Shade Banished It was inevitable that great attention would be paid to the released German war prisoners who could give the first eyewitness accounts of Adolph Hitler's last days in Berlin.

The men who have been freed, one of them Hitler's body servant and another his personal pilot, agree that their leader committed suicide with his longtime friend, Eva Braun. Both say the bodies of the two were burned to ashes outside the bombproof bunker in the German chancellery grounds, where Hit- led had frantically directed the Nazi war effort in 'its final phase. The effect of this firsthand testimony is to confirm one of the most remarkable intelligence performances recorded in World War IT. A British intelligence officer, H. R.

Trevor-Roper, painstakingly dug out the final chapter of the Hitler story from captured documents, testimony of such witnesses as were in Allied hands, and the physical evidence in and around the bunker. As a matter of fact, Heinz Linge, the Hitler body servant now freed, was one of Trevor-Roper's sources. His detailed diary was left behind and came into British possession. In spite of this generally very convincing report, the legend persisted from the outset that Hitler had not died but somehow had made his way out of Germany to a hiding place abroad, Lisbon or Buenos Aires or some such spot. There was no shred of evidence to support this notion.

The chief reason it did not perish was most likely the wish of many Nazi people to believe that Hitler still lived. They could cling to only one fact: that utterly no trace was found of Hitler's body no ashes, no bones, nothing. Linge now conies forward to help extinguish that frail spark of hope. He declares that he himself assisted in reducing of them in a manner which assured there would be no trace left. If the legend persists beyond these disclosures, it will be a thing wholly of the imaginations of the men who want to believe.

More realistic men will see finality written in the eyewitnes confirmation now given to Trevor-Roper's story. We who love life and liberty may not readily understand why Hitler could find no course but death. But he had tasted the anguish of prison before, and even in the unlikely event lie could have escaped to exile, he might have found such self-banishment nearly as painful. He knew his ultimate death at Allied hands was a strong probability. Since that was so, he chose to manage the last act according to his own lights.

With the game flair for the dramatic that marked to much of his life, he wrote the closing scene as a sort of modern-day, Wagnerian "twilight of the gods." Hitler saw himself the whole way as a man of destiny, living a life that was a work of art. Such a life cannot end without artistic flourish. More than ever now, it seems plain he supplied the stunning conclusion he believed the grim circumstances called for. VIEWS OF OTHERS A Little Boy's Question "la God married?" That question from a little who can ask more puzzling questions, unless it be a little sec off a chain reaction affecting family life in a whole Eastern Carolina community that might prove significant, certainly interesting, to broader areas. The father, telling how that question stumped him and flashed a light to him that more adequate religious training needed to be brought into the home, says effecU have been electrifying already.

He believes there needs to be positive effort to bring families together, if for no better reason than to inspect and see whether children may have contracted rash. A community-wide effort has been successfully launched there to make Thursday night family night throughout every home, with a moratorium on meetings of every hind, with local television programs designed to encourage and feed family life, and with emphasis on the family's being together for just one evening in the week. Of course, it ran into obstacles, with this organization and that insisting It was serving family needs in a way to justify exception. But the line reportedly is holding quite well. It's going to be interesting to find whether it brings advantages pictured in drawing lamiliei into closer relationships and a feeling of oneness.

The Bible says it's not good that man be alone, something the little boy must have sensed when he directed his inquiry that set oft thoughts that families which get together have a way of holding together. The experiment, while probably foredomed to disappointment because of the pull of various outside interests, is an interesting effort to tackle a basic problem that's keeping the American family apart when it ought, for Its own sake, to be sticking Point (N.C.) Enterprise. Empty Comments Some years ago a distinguished English lady visited the United States, and after viewing the statue of liberty and a few miles of New York harbor she hastened to a hotel and proceeded to write "My Impressions of America." Now several United States senators are closing a week's visit in "Moscow' their own country where presently they will be writing columns of copy on the inside story of Russian economics and politico. One of them has commented lengthily on Russia's international behavior for the next 10 or 20 years. A brief view of the Kremlin and Lenin's tomb has qualitfied him to speak as an authority on all of Russia's baffling problems.

Or so he thinks. It is something of an illustration of American credulity when the word of a senator on Russian issues attracts more attention than a carefully prepared article from the pen of a veteran news reporter who has had 25 years of experience in collecting und publishing bed rock facts. Given the choice of a skilled reported or a medoicre senator most of us will take the say so of the senator. For he Is a senator, you know, and therefore something special, the United States who has seen none of the country No one can form any worthwhile opinions of but 40 odd blocks leading up from the water front.

Oi' this list only Herb Philbrick, with his book and TV series, can probably claim a net profit for his undercover work for the FBI.

The others had not had a net gain financially from their FBI work and were being- heckled by everything from dead rats hurled on their porches to threatening I phone calls in the middle of the But the trouble today is that the American public has a short memory.

And the Communists, with WASHINGTON J. Edgar Hoover is waging a bitter and some.times discouraging fight with the Communist party in the U.S. over the use of confidential informants. These confidential informants spent years of their lives working inside the Commie party in the U.S. They kept the FBI informed of what was going on inside the party and account for the presence of scores of the Red conspirators being behind bars.

These agents undoubtedly frustrated countless espionage plots against the U.S. They revealed to the public in dramatic form just how conspiratorial and the Red plot against Uncle Sam really is, their long memories, are clever. Hoover says of the situation: "Those now furthering the campaign of vituperation against witnesses say that the Communist' menace is a myth created by those who testified against it. Therefore, to destroy the myth, they feel it is necessary to destroy the witnesses. They refuse to recognize the Communist enslave merit of one- third of the world's people and one-fourth of the world's surface." Two years ago this reporter toured the U.S., writing what hnd happened to some of these undercover agents since their roles hnd been revealed by testimony in court.

The story was about the same night. The FBI reports that this kind of retaliation is continuing and that vicious campaigns of character assassinations have been directed against them in their home towns and neighborhoods. The obvious motives of the Reds is to destroy the credibility of those persons as future witnesses and to make them unwilling to face appearances in court. Hoover reveals: "The Communists, bent on weakening our American way of life. have now turned to enlist other individuals and groups to convey propaganda designed to discredit truth.

It is through the 'pseudo liberals' that the Communists do some of their most destructive Work. These fictitious liberal the individuals who th The story was about the same the individuals who through insidi- for all of them.

He adds: "Recently there has been a determined campaign designed to deprive law enforcement of the use of the time-tested and valued confidential informant. This campaign of vituperation is part and parcel of Communist strategy to convert the courtroom into a forum to discredit the judicial process."

Thomason in Texas he ruled that Matusow was telling the truth in his original testimony and gave the turnabout witness a three-year sentence. Thomason says: "I am firmly convinced that Matusow schemed to use this court as a forum for calling public attention to a book." The FBI's problem in selecting informers is that it doesn't have the chance to recruit and train them the way it does Its regular agents.

JORDAN, M.D. We are hardly born before people or things start getting in our way.

Even as small babies our mothers generally will not let us suck our thumbs as much a.s want, to! From then on, we arc constantly running into insurmountable obstacles. Surely there is no- human being alive who does not have frustrating experiences and none of us has complete freedom of action all thcj lime. Most of the time we do not intend to tackle something can-j not conquer but since everyone prevented from doing- as he or she sometimes, ii seems to me important to learn how to behave; when this happens. Also, since there Ls no question) of the profound effect of the mental attitude on the physical well- being as well as the other wayj around the adjustment to these' blocks to our desires is of significance to health. Some people fight back at theiri frustrations with success at times' and failures at others.

Those who meet failure calmly and courageously nre generally the best adjusted Individuals in our society. Many persons sink into resignation or hopelessness if they encounter too many obstacles standing in the way of their desires. Some people develop physical symptoms which are the outgrowth of their frustrations. They often use their "physical" symptoms as an excuse for further failure. Some develop a headache whenever they are faced with a conference, nn examination, or some other test which they fear they will be unable to meet successfully Others develop simitar physical symptoms and use them ns a reason for failing to meet life's problems or ns, explaining their failures.

It Is extremely difficult to persuade such individuals that their symptoms are just an excuse! Another typt of unf ortuna reaction to frustrating: experience is to take to alcohol. There are other weak escapes into unreality in which the person kids himself or herself into believing that the world is against! him and his failures are else's fault. It seems to me necessary to recognize that life holds obstacles which cannot always be overcome I do not believe that the problem of mental adjustment lies in the field of sex alone or any other single activity of life but rather is spread throughout the whole raiifre of life's experience. That we react differently to those problems with which we are faced (as well as having 1 different frustrations) is surely shown bj the enormous variation in our individual be- haVior. MR.

Television sure hates to admit there is such a thing as film and this is the wildest deception yet.

The advertisements refer to a new electronic camera and it's quite a gadget really. It films the show for delayed and repeat showings. It's a big; 'mprovement over the TV kinescope system which photographs the image from the TV tube. The electronic camera records picture and sound directly from the stage as does a movie camera. But Gracie Allen must, have ten those ads.

If It's on film, It Isn't live anymore than I Love Lucy, Robert Cummlngs, Danny Thomas tnd other top filmed shows are live. "A new era in TV production," the ads read. It sure is if 265-pound Jackie Gleason can remain "live" on thin- as-paper film only 35 mm. wide. Rather uncomfortable, too, I'd say, to be rolled up on a spool.

Especially as a honeymooner, Mike Shadow. TV's private eye no longer seems to be a problem on live shows.

You must now tackle the diamonds, but this allows East to take the ace of diamonds and defeat you with the rest of the hearts. Your magnificent six-card trump suit didn't last long enough! The solution to the problem is to make proper use of dummy's miserable little singleton deuce of trumps. This little fellow is just as powerful as your six high trumps You win -the second trick by ruffing a heart, but you do not draw trumps.

Instead, you lead diamonds until somebody takes the ace. A heart is returned, and you must ruff again. Now you lead a club to force out the ace of that suit. When East takes thft ace of clubs he cannot lead a fourth heart. Dummy's trump is still there to stop the heart suit.
