TEN PAGES VOL. 108 NO. 148 SANTA CRUZ, CALIFORNIA, SUNDAY, JUNE 22, 1941 DAILY EXCEPT MONDAY 10 ike Once 'Friends' These Two Were I As We See It News and Views Ot The Sentinel Nazi Troops Ready From Rumania To Finland For Fight By The Associated Press New York, Sunday, June 22 Adolf Hitler hurled his German armies against Soviet Russia in one of the greatest turn-abouts in history today, declaring all-out war against the erstwhile friend whom he called a liar, double-crosser and secret ally of Great Britain. Supporting the Germans, declared Hitler, were the vengeance-hungry forces from Finland and Rumania, both eager to regain territories lost to Russia.

The British radio strongly intimated that embattled Brijain would welcome Russia as an ally against the Nazis. Hitler, who boasted by radio when his men invaded Poland on September 1, 1939, that his back was secure by reason of his hon-aggression pact with Russia seven days earlier, today accused Russia of having sought to stab Germany in the back ever since. Russia has done this, he mourned, despite Germany's generous gift to her of half of fallen Poland. FIGHTING ON TWO FRONTS Casting aside his oft-repeated declaration that Germany never again would fight a war on two fronts as she did in the World war, Hitler told the world again by mini jT? J. Si; SBp 5 A I teiiii fill ADOLF HITLER i JOSEPH STALIN Added to the SRA crisis, precipitated by the Legislature's failure to provide funds for continuance of the program, came the news yesterday that 90 men will be dropped from WPA rolls of Santa Cruz county by July 1.

Santa Cruz county taxpayers will be forced to take up the slack. We can not know how much the tax bill will be until the supervisors have studied the needs carefully and until private industry has been given a chance to absorb some of the employables. Under the SRA program in this county a road crew of 200 men has been encamped on the old San Jose road, five miles north of Soquel, and the local SRA office has been distributing surplus commodities to about 2000 individuals. A logical responsibility should be assumed by those persons who have advocated the. type of economy we are witnessing.

If private enterprise fails to provide jobs, the county government will be forced to carry the burden of feeding an army of unemployed. What kind of job can you offer? Do you need a janitor, a gardener, a delivery man? You, who have advocated strict economy in government will you give a job to one of these men deprived of WPA and SRA employment. And when the demands increase upon the charitable agencies, will you increase your contributions Chinese Consul General Believes Russia Will Make Strong Stand Hope that Russia will throw her greatest force against the Nazi invaders was expressed here last night by Chinese Consul General C.

His denunciation of Russia, bristling with a hatred nurtured in silence for nearly two years, was read over the air by his propaganda minister, Dr. Paul Goebbels. Foreign Minister Jdachim Von Ribbentrop followed with the actual declaration of war. In London, stunned 'almost into silence by this unexpected fruition of long-held but doubted dreams, the BBC said a Moscow statement had declared Russian and British accord on the international situation.

"I have been away from my office at San Francisco all day and have received no official communication concerning these latest developments," Feng declared.

The German radio declaration of war called the movement "the greatest march the world has ever seen." That actual contact had not yet been established was intimated, however, by the German radio, in a subsequent news bulletin picked up here by NBC.

It said the German troops along the 1500-mile border were "moving into their last-minute positions." The Italian radio chimed in quickly with word that Italy was standing by to aid her axis partner. The German radio, following up the Hitler-Ribben-trop blasts calling Russia a blackguard and enemy of world civilization, said proof would be offered in 24 hours that Russia came to a secret agreement with England behind the Reich's back.
