WasningTOn WASHINGTON. Should congress ever decide to Investigate the national defense commission it would unearth some appalling delays in the securing of the nation's raw materials particularly rubber. It was as early a June that Roosevelt requested a study of the synthetic rubber Industry, in case Japan should invade the Dutch East Indies. And as early as July 13, Edward Stettinius, in charge of raw materials, reported: "It i expected that before this month is over a plan of synthetic rubber production will have been worked out which in the future will eliminate our dependence upon Imports." It is now December, and synthetic rubber production has run up against the powerful and delaying hand of Loan Administrator Jesse Jones. Nothing has happened.

Jesse is not to blame, for all of the delay, however, since the defense commission got its plan to him not in July but in October. But eight weeks have passed since then, and Defense Commissioner Stettinius, worried, has written Jesse a prodding letter. Real fact is that a fundamental difference exists between the defense commission and Jesse Jones regarding future rubber supplies. The commission believes that the production of synthetic rubber should begin immediately, and wants to give a subsidy of to American rubber companies. The subsidy would be necessary to offset the price of natural rubber, which sells for 8 cents to 20 cents a pound, whereas synthetic rubber would cost about 25 cents.

Six Synthetic Rubbers To this end, the defense commission has been negotiating with various rubber companies, and the following are ready to cooperate if a subsidy is granted: DuPont, which produces Neo-prene. This company is by far the most experienced in the field, and its product has the highest production. Standard Oil, which produces Butyl and has the license for U. S. production of the famous German synthetic rubber, Buna.

Goodyear, which produces Chemigum.

However, Jesse Jones doesn't believe that synthetic rubber needs to be produced on a large scale. He favors a small subsidy to one company as an experiment. The defense commission counters with a forecast of what might happen should all our rubber be cut off in the Dutch East Indies. It emphasizes that machinery cannot be set up overnight to produce emergency rubber. Stettinius is really aroused, may appeal to the White House if he doesn't soon move Jesse.

Note Meanwhile the acquisition of emergency stocks of natural rubber is moving all too slowly. By the end of next year only long tons of rubber will have been acquired for the government stock pile, in contrast to U. S. consumption of 600,000 tons a year. Tragedy is that after the war, rubber prices may be depressed by these possible huge reserves being unloaded on the market.

Polish Goodwill Ambassador Count Potocki, retiring Polish ambassador to the United States, has just come back from an airplane trip to Peru, as a result of which he will become a sort of personal roving ambassador to further American good-neighbor-liness. The success of the Roosevelt good neighbor policy was what impressed Potocki more than any other single thing. "Even in Peru," he reported, "where Italian banks and Italian business houses are most influential, and where an Italian police mission and' an Italian air mission have trained Peruvians even here, the United States is far more popular than the Fascists. In fact, people in the streets of Lima were shouting 'Viva Grecia' when the Greek armies first triumphed over Italy. "You have no idea how popular President Roosevelt is in South America.

He is an idol. He has grasped the fact that you can't win in Latin America by bulldozing, but only by goodwill and persuasion." What Britons Read W.P.A.'s library service made an interesting discovery in a survey to ascertain what the people of war-strafed Britain are reading these days. One fact uncovered was that the long, dreary hours of blackout, with no outside recreation, have greatly revived interest in household arts and handicraft. Books on these subjects are at a premium. Also, the classics are in heavy demand, with Shakespeare, Chaucer, Dickens and Kipling as the favorites.

Former Kaiser Elects Not to Leave Holland Wilhelm Refuses Invitation From Hitler to Return to Land He Once Ruled By H. C. BUURMAN (United Press Correspondent) DOORN, Netherlands, Dec. 22. Former Kaiser Wilhelm II, a stooped and white-haired old man guarded night and day by Nazi sentries, has politely refused Adolf Hitler's invitation that he return to Germany.

The 81-year-old head of the house of Hohenzollern wants to spend his remaining days and die in his Dutch exile, he has told the fuehrer. SENT GREETINGS When the blitzkrieg engulfed Holland last May, after making a wide detour around Doom estate to spare Wilhelm any annoyance, Hitler sent a delegation of officers to Doorn estate to convey the reichsfuehrer's personal greetings. The officers invited the aged exile "in the name of Herr Hitler" to return to Germany and live in any one of the Hohenzollern castles he might choose. They told the ex-kaiser that a guard of honor would be placed outside the gates of Doorn house as a mark of respect on Hitler's part for the war lord he once served. Wilhelm, it was learned, wrote a personal letter of gratitude to Hitler, expressing his "delight" at the victories of the Nazi third reich's war machine.

PREFERRED TO STAY But, he said, he preferred to remain at Doorn. "I am an old man and now I've lived in Holland since 1918 I Bv DREW PEARSON and robert s. allen But the one subjoct in which Britons are most interested is the author of their affliction. The most widely-read book in England, according to the W.P.A. survey, is Hitler's "Mein Kampf." Exiled in Islands When two red hot new dealers find themselves on a small island with two equally red hot Repub licans, right after a stormy election, you have all the ingredients for a thrilling murder mystery.

It really happened recently and, amazing as it sounds, there were no casualties, nor was it necessary even to call out the coast guard. The strangely assorted quartet included Jim Rowe, young administrative aide of the president; Ted Church, radio director of the G.O.P. national committee; Dick Sanger, leader of the Young Republican clubs; and Tom Eliot, newly-elected new deal congressman from Massachusetts. By chance the four men and their wives vacationed together for two weeks after the last campaign on Guana Island, a tiny spot in the British Virgin islands. There was no one else on the island except the caretaker of a clubhouse.

The island was big enough to hold the four couples only because of a "council of peace" on the first day, at which it was agreed that anyone who mentioned politics during the vacation would have to buy a round of drinks. The edict didn't have to be enforced. "All we did was fish, eat, swim, play tennis and climb a mountain," relates Church. "However, the Republicans did manage to get in a few licks against the new dealers anyway. Jim Rowe and I bet a rum swizzle on who would catch the biggest fish.

He had to pay off twice." Marriage Follows Courtship on Radio (By United Press) SAN JOSE, Dec. 22. A romance and courtship carried on via amateur radio between Hawaii and Los Gatos, California, will culminate here Christmas day in the marriage of Miss Vera Rathbun, 31, and Sgt. Alexander McGalliard 31, now at Fort Beauregard, La. They "met" on the air while McGalliard was oparating station K6DV at Schofield barracks and she was operating 260HC at Los Gatos in the spring of 1939.

They conversed almost daily for many weeks. En route to Fort Moultrie, N. McGalliard stopped off here and visited Miss Rathbun. He proposed in person and she accepted. The patent office received In 1852 an application for papers on a typewriter valued at $10,000.

want to die here," he wrote. Shortly before Hitler sent his armies crashing into Holland there were unconfirmed rumors that the British minister to The Hague had sent his legation secretary to Doorn to inform the kaiser that he might go to England if he wished, promising him a hearty welcome and full protection. Wilhelm's reply, according to these rumors, was quick and sharp. If he ever went to England, he was quoted as saying, it would be in the company of a victorious German invasion. Wilhelm's routine has changed little as result of the German occupation of Holland and his days are much the same as most of those of the past 20 years, although there are fewer visitors.

HEALTH FRAIL Age and frail health compel him to submit to longer rest periods each afternoon and his wood-chopping has been virtually abandoned. The only reminders of Hitler's war at Doorn are the two German sentries posted outside the front gate of the castle. They present arms each time Wilhelm enters or leaves the estate, which is rarely. The sentries have been there night and day since last May. Wilhelm and his wife, Princess Hermine, are preparing quietly for Christmas and for his flighty-second birthday on Jan.
