General The early inhabitants of Tennessee took an active part in the American Revolution but In general it was a guerrilla type of warfare Their operations took place under the oommand of John Sevier who had been appointed colonel-commandant In Washington County when the area was annexed by North Carolina and Evan 8helby who was given the asm position in Sullivan County when it was formed later Their distant and inaccessible position among the mountain fastnesses and in the obscurity of the valleys of the Holston River was well adapted to sudden forceful attack and immediate retreat Although this was the general type of fighting called for in their area of operations these leaders possessed sufficient tactical skill to wage battles of fixed positions as well In 1780 Sevier and Shelby were two of the four 'leaders serving under a guerrilla captain named McDowell In the latter part of that year when they were encamped on the French Broad River McDowell sent Shelby and another leader to disperse a force of Tories on the Enoree River Riding hard they -made a wide detour of Patrick Ferguson's encampment of British regulars and Tories between them and their objective When they arrived near daybreak a abort distance from the camp the Tories broke and fled without putting up any resistance The Tennesseans pursued them hotly but In the course of the chase a farmer warned them of a large force of regular troops nearby coming to reinforce the enemy Both men end horses were tired Retreat was Impossible Breastworks were hastily improvised and other preparations were made for a desperate defense A short time later the British Colonel Innee arrived with six hundred regulars and a rabble of Tories He attacked immediately and pushed back a small detachment the Americans had sent out to try to keep him from crossing the river But when he struck their main defense the frontiersmen held their position and drove back the attackers time and again Bit the onslaught was stubborn and the Americans were just beginning to yield when Colonel By Drew Pearson One of th moit important treasures of war information in existence are the Nasi files seized by the Army after it entered Germany The Nazis were methodical keepers of records and almost everything they did ranging from conferences with Hitler to actions by deputy fuehrers was faithfully recorded and filed away In the opinion of Secretary of the Army Kenneth Royall these papers which throw significant light on how we Ian avoid wr in the future should be made available to the American people American soldiers gave their blood to capture them and Royall has tried to persuade the State Department to open the files to the public However Wall Street banker Bob Lovett Acting Secretary of State feels otherwise And following his usual hush-hush policy these revealing papers have been kept secret This column however has been able to obtain one sensational Nazi document giving the minutes the meeting at which advisers plotted master-plan for the extermination of European The meeting was held on Jan 20 1942 And while history has now shown what happened since public does not know the names of the men planned this mass extermination and the detailed way in which they worked it out Furthermore despite the long-drawn-out war crimes trials at Nuremburg these men have not been indicted Minutes of this Berlin

power today advice to eat leas A southern writer saying he is sick of hearing that the United States must continue to pour its material wealth into Europe or else asks the question it charity blackmail or cold war with Russia?" By blackmail he means are the nations of Europe forcing us to take care of them under threat of turning to Russia? If it is supposed to be charity why limit our efforts to western Europe? People are also starving in eastern Europe and in Asia If it is why we tell Europe to go ahead and turn to Russia and see how they like it? And if it is a with Russia what is it about? The conclusion seems to be that there is not sufficient reason for this extraordinary program and we are pauperising ourselves or at least greatly weakening ourselves for no good purpose The trouble is that behind the present program is a very complex situation and there is something of all three reasons for it It is charity certainly People are desperately in need of help little people and children It make it less charity as far as they are concerned that lots of other people are hungry too and we are doing more for some than for others It does not make it less charity that there are other and more selfish motives for giving them this help They do need it desperately Blackmail ia a harsh word We do have a that unless the people get relief from us they will turn to communism That is not a threat on their part but an inevitable eventuality They will have no other recourse That is best made clear by saying that to the average person in i Europe the situation between democracy and communism is something like the dif-ference between Republicans and Democrats to us When one party by failure and ineptitude convinces the people that they cannot do the job the people turn to the other It a threat an inev- itability -jr Today there are two forces pulling the 2 people of Europe a mistake to think that it is a question of which way the peo- pie lean The masses of the people are not leaning either way- They are not pro-2T democracy or pro-communism They are not pro anything in particular The bulk of the people are the almost inert metal in the center The active protagonists for democracy and communism are the two magnets at either end The iron is going to answer to the pull of the stronger mag- net If the forces of democracy in western Europe are weak and cannot get outside help the fprees df communism will almost certainly be given the chance to see what they can do with the outside help they can get So if we are agreed that we have lome interest in keeping democracy alive in western Europe then there is reason to say we are forced or if you prefer by circumstances to do something about it The answer to it a cold war with Russia?" is also yes It is yes because it is generally agreed there is no ft about our own selfish interest in keeping democracy alive in western Europe If we say that it 'A makes no difference to us of course the selfish motive for action is eliminated But it should not be difficult to see what will happen if western Europe goes the way of eastern Europe It should not be difficult to see that political control means economic control If we look no further forward than that we see a picture of Europe with puppet Communist governments on strings attached to the strong fingers in Moscow There will be plenty of Titos allowed to strut as Strong Men with all the trappings of a self-sufficient government but who like Tito do not dare breathe a thought in conflict with their voice It should not be difficult to see that our foreign trade under conditions like that will be subject to Russian control Oho so cold-blooded business? Exactly Because business" is a synonym 'for for American and the standard of living in this country which is based on those jobs When the United States does not have free access to the markets of the world (and it will not have if Russia ever controls the eastern hemisphere which is undoubtedly the goal of Moscow) the United economic strength and its standard of living will shrink up considerably Yes it is charity and blackmail and cold war of the Jews the who yet type puts of to Joan Fontaine celebrated her 10th anniversary in Hollywood No Olivia de Havilland send her congratulations Tierney

made Henry A Wallace in view of the dangers of an emigration during the war and in view of the possibilities in the East the Reichsfuehrer-SS and the Chief of the German Police had forbidden the emigrating of the Jews The emigration program has now been replaced by the evacuation of the Jews to the East as a further solution possibility in accordance with previous authorization by the Fuehrer actions are of course to be regarded only as a temporary substitute nonetheless here already the practical experience has been acquired which in view of the coming final solution of the Jewish problem is of great importance the course of this final solution of the European Jewish problem approximately eleven million Jews are involved They are distributed among the individual countries as follows: (then follows a list of all European countries and their Jewish population even including England Ireland Switzerland and Scandinavian countries not occupied by Hitler The fact that these countries together with Russia were included in Nazi tabu-lations would Indicate that Hitler planned to take all the countries of Europe and exterminate the Jews At the time of this conference Jan 20 1942 Pearl Harbor had just crippled the American fleet the Japs wore rushing toward India and the Germans still figured on taking Stalingrad) the Jewish population figures given for the various foreign countries however only those of Jewish faith are included as the stipulations for defining Jews along racial lines still are in part lacking there The treatment of the problem as regards the general attitude and viewpoint will meet with certain difficulties In the Various countries especially in Hungary and Rumania It is still possible today in Rumania for example for the Jew to acquire for money the right documents to give him official proof of a foreign nationality influence of the Jews in all territories in the USSR is known In the European part of Russia there are perhaps five million Jews in Asiatic Russia hardly one-fourty million down according to occupations the Jews living in the European part of the USSR were about as follows: In agriculture 91 per cent as urban workers 148 per cent in commerce 200 per cent employed as government workers 234 per cent in private medicine press theater etc 327 per cent proper direction tho Jews should now In the course of the final solution be brought to the East in a suitable way for use as labor In big labor gangs with separation of tho sexos the Jews capable of work are brought to these areas and employed in roadbuilding In which task undoubtedly a great part will fall out through natural diminution remnant that finally Is able to survive all this since this is undoubtedly the part with the strongest must be given treatment accordingly since these people representing a natural selection are to be regarded as the germ cell of a new Jewish problem in the Government General Is primarily the responsibility of the Chief of the Security Police and the SD and his work was supported by the agencies of the Government General He had only one request that ths Jewish problem in this territory be solved as quickly as possible conclusion the various kinds of solutions were discussed and here both Gauleiter Dr Meyer and also State Secretary Dr Buehler advocated that certain preparatory tasks in the course of the final solution be performed Immediately in the territories concerned in this however any disturbing of the population must be avoided the request of the Chief of the Security Police and the SD to those participating in the conference to afford him their support in the carrying out of the tasks in connection with tho solution the conference was Side Glances stop talking about the next war and try to
