So Konoye knows that when the Black Dragon threatens assassination assassin-ation it really means business. t He has been placed in such a dilemma that after two visits to the emporer he is reported to be seriously considering resigning as prime minister. I "PAPPY'S" SON-IN-LAW Senator Pappy O'Daniel of Texas has already .learned the . ropes . of getting things done in Washington; in fact even before he took thf oath of office as senator. sena-tor. Pappy was able to get his prospective son-in-law out of the Naval Reserve.- : - O'Daniel's son-in-law, John Dev-ereaux Dev-ereaux Wrather, Jr., age 23, had the unique experience of getting into the , Naval Reserve on June 9, 1941, and getting out on July 28, a little over a month later. It is not so easy to get into the Naval Reserve these days, but it is harder to get out. Young Wrather, however, han-. han-. died both with considerable ease, was not handicapped by the fact that he had a Pappy who was just elected Senator. It is interesting inter-esting to note, however, that since Pappy had not yet actually taken the oath, it was the office of Texas' other senator, handsome long Tom Connally, who arranged it with the navy. Reason young Wrather wanted to get out was a naval rule that a man cannot marry until four months after he has entered the Naval Reserve. Asked if the navy had relaxed its regulations in granting Wrather a discharge, a high navy official replied: "Not at all. Influence cuts ho ice with us. We just figured that a young man who prefers a honeymoon honey-moon to a commission isn't of officer of-ficer caliber. Wrather is out of the navy.- We told him to report to pis local draft board."

"How can we give Russia real help," asked Stimson, "if we do not know at first hand what your military situation is and what you need most?" Unpopular Ambassador Oumansky Ouman-sky squirmed, got red in the face, explained it was not his fault. But since then a large number of U. S. military and naval attaches at-taches have been flying secretly to Moscow. How close they are getting to the Russian front is Axis Leaders Huridfe on theFront?

Among those who left for Russia Rus-sia the other day was Ronald H. Allen, a secretary of the Reconstruction Recon-struction Finance corporation, and now assistant naval attache in Moscow. Naval Reserve Officer Allen, one of the key men in the RFC, was yanked away from his important loan duties by the navy and rushed ' by plane to Moscow. RFC officials groaned, wondered why the navy was so shorthanded. Only excuse given by the navy was that Allen spoke Russian. NOTE: U. S. military officers have been itching to see the Nazi-Russian Nazi-Russian fighting. For never,' before be-fore has there been an opportunity to see German tanks in action against an. adequate foe. In France there was no real fighting against the Nazi mechanized advances. But Russia's stubborn resistance gives an A-l laboratory test of modern mechanized warfare. SECRET ARMY-NAVY CLASH The. forthcoming Detroit hearings hear-ings of Representative John Tol-an's Tol-an's committee investigating defease, de-fease, Jabor problems may bring into the open a very hush-hush Army-Navy secret a bitter longstanding long-standing dispute between the two services over the Navy's hogging of strategic war materials.- Ordinarily the Army and Navy don't air their private differences, but feelings over this issue have become so heated that unless the top brasshats step in and order silencers a lot of very interesting information will come to light about Navy interference in prior-iyt prior-iyt matters which will hang no medals on the admirals. It will be disclosed that due to wholly unnecessary Navy hogging hog-ging of steel production, tank output out-put for the Army and the lend-lease lend-lease program has been seriously curtailed. Also it will be revealed unless NEED Qp HIRED HELP?- Assign more fobs to Roddy 'ftiovatt Reddy Kilowatt, your Electrical Hired Hand, can take over scores of jobs on your farm, just as he has on thousands' of farms throughout through-out this territory. You'll find he's efficient, dependableand works for the lowest wages paid any "hired hand." the Tolan committee is censored that the various Navy construction and supply branches have a deliberate delib-erate policy of secreting statistics sta-tistics on materials they have on hand or on order, so that even OPM, responsible for all defense production, cannot get any accurate accur-ate data. It has never been disclosed, but several months ago Navy Under Secretary James Forrestal, concerned con-cerned about complaints of Navy hoarding, attempted to set up a statistical agency within the Navy to get the facts. He persuaded Secretary Frank Knox to issue an order creating the agency. But before Forrestal could get the experts he wanted, the brasshats scuttled the whole plan. Since then OPM has been trying to get some data, but without with-out success. It waa even unable to get any figures on the amount of steel, aluminum, copper and other metals that went in.to the giant new North Carolina. Tolan has invited both Army and Navy officials to attend his hearings and if they tangle, a lot of fur should fly. Behind the scenes they have been sputtering at one another for months. I SWOC SCRAMBLE With has shaggy-browed ej'es fixed on recapturing the CIO presidency, John L. Lewis is quietly maneuvering to line up another an-other powerful CIO union behind his candidacy. This time it is the Steel Workers Organizing Com mittee. Head of the rapidly growing SWOC is Phil Murray, who holds this post in addition to being presi dent of the CIO and vice-president of the United Mine Workers.- This last job is the only one which pays him a salary. HI with a heart ailment that will keep him inactive for months, it is definitely in the cards that Murray, at the Steel Workers convention late this month, will have to step out as boss. With this change in the wind, Lewis, seeing an opportunity to further his po litical ambitions, is busily pulling wires behind the scenes to make one of his men the new SWOC president. This would be a big boost for Lewis's CIO presidential ambi tions, particularly after the blow up of his undercover attempt to gain control of the United Auto Workers at their recent Buffalo convention. McDonald and Golden, who are close personal friends and known in CIO circles as anti-Lewis men. Bittner also in the past has disagreed dis-agreed with Lewis, notably over his support of Wendell WiUkie. Lewis made strenuous efforts to pressure Bittner to bolt Roosevelt, Roose-velt, but the West Virginian stood firm, on supporting the third term. For a while there were inner CIO reports that Lewis, ' furious over this, intended to axe Bittner out of his high Miner office. But inside word now is that they have patched up their differences and that Lewis is throwing his weight behind Bittner for the SWOC presidency. So far Murray has given no Indication who his choice is if he steps out. Insiders are betting it will be Golden, .who is close to him and one of the ablest leaders in the CIO. Both Golden and McDonald are strong anti-leftists and have curbed curb-ed radical elements with an iron hand in SWOC. They also oppose Lewis's isolationism and support Roosevelt's foreign policies. NOTE: Another tell-tale sign that Lewis is after the CIO presidency presi-dency is the vigorous undercover campaign activity in his behalf by Allan Haywood, CIO organizational organization-al director. Haywood has long been on very intimate terms with Lewis and is regarded in CIO circles as Lewis's spokesman. (Copyright, 1941, by United Feature Syndicate, Inc.) VINEYARD ists.
