A.-Britain-China-Russia. That is, of course, the main outline of the - lineup. Our position is better than that, however. There are, among the 26 na- ? tions allied against the Fascist con- spiracy, other peoples whose help 1 miht well be the balance of power r that will mean victory, r : ? -t The Dutch r They might have stood ty idly and watched Malaya and the : Philippines fall, taking a qhance as I so many others have taken it, that : they would not be next. But the Dutch I knew better. Their homeland in Eu- ; rope was overrun and desolated by I that same tragic error. Once, but not z twice. I On the day Japan struck, Dutch : planes flew to Singapore, Dutch sub-;! sub-;! marines sank transports in the Gulf j of Siam, Dutch planes struck the first blows in defense of Sarawak. The I Netherlands have been conquered, I but Dutch spirit lives on, and Holland ! still fights with indomitable courage. ; The Norwegians: Eighty per cent I of the magnificent Norwegian merch- I ant fleet is fighting against Fascism. f It is estimated that half the gasoline I and oil reaching Britain today goes in Norwegian ships manned by Norweg- l fan crews. Almost a thousand Norse flyers are in training in Canada; i training camps for Norse troops are : in England, and raids on the Nor- i wegian .coast always include some of I these; in addition, there are Norweg- ; ian volunteers with the British and i Russian armies.- I : The Poles: Every spectacular air : raid . on Germany includes Polish 1 pilots, and the reconquest of Libya 2 was partly due to their Work in the f air. Polish troops are training in Eng-I Eng-I land and Russia. The I Washington A Daily Picture of What's ; ; WASHINGTON Tile next report of Sen-Si Sen-Si ator Harry S. Truman's war. contract investi- gating committee will be the hottest yet. 5 - . Now being prepared by . the Missouri Senator j and his able chief council, Hugh A. Fulton, the - report will give OPM a bare-knuckled going-5 going-5 ove for failing more effectively to utilize the i nation's industrial system for war production. r - Truman will flatly demand the elimination of all Dollar-A-Year and "WOC" (without cora-l cora-l penBation) men as the first step in a top- to- bottom cleanup of the OPM, which he will i recommend should be undertaken immediately. ; - ; - In blasting the Dollar-A-Yearers, the report X will charge that many of them, under the pretense of "giving" their services to the govem-: govem-: ment, have in fact exploited their official posit- ion to get juicy, contracts for their corporations. - ii. Also, unless a change is made in the Tru- man-Fulton draft, the report will declare bluntly ; that many of these Dollar-A-Year men have t been undercover lobbyists for their firms. Equally sensational will be the accusation Z , that, a number of them have received substantial Increases in the salaries they have continued to " draw from their companies while working for . the government "for nothing." r Note: OPM now has 246 Dollar-A-Year and z .VWOC" men on its rolls. It costs the FBI $250 ; per man to investigate the background of these " officials. I . HOW THEY DO IT r The report will say that the probe has z uncovered no technical violation of the regulat-Z regulat-Z ion barring OPM of f icials vf rora handling con-' con-' tracts in which former business associates are 5 interested. However, the report will charge . that some Dollar- A - Year men have helped their t companies get big-profit contracts by surrep-r surrep-r titious devices. . One such device is to give their firms ad-3 ad-3 vance tips On orders a tremondous advantage to ; a bidder. Another is tq advise their firms on "how ,tof go y about" getting a contract, who to : see, the amount to bid, and so on. ; Also, the Dollar-A-Year boys are in a posit-t posit-t Ion to know of impending shortages of certain materials and to help their companies out by t giving them inside information on when and t how to stock up. ; Truman's report will strongly recommend ; that the government either pay Dollar-A-Year r and "WOC" men regular salaries or get rid of them- As now written, the report declares: Z "No man can serve two masters, his comp- 2 any and the government. Human nature being t . what it is, a Dollar-A Year man cannot be S i expected to forget the interests of his company, especially while -he is still on the payroll of that 1 company." I ; COLONEL. LINDBERGH : The colonel's commission discarded iast t year by Charles Lindbergh while . waging his . bitter isolationist crusade will be reinstated by jhe War.DepartmentT-when his formal applicat-z applicat-z I iori " ha been received. ... . As .this la written It has not yet reached ; the War Department. The ex-hero signified his jL, desire to regain his reserve commission in a personai letter, to General "Hag" Arnold, chief aflti:-Hiilldl "Liberty through all the land" The Uberty Bell . Yugoslavs: Many German divisions have been kept busy by the Serbian guerillas who never stopped fighting. Sfi S Sft Greeks, Belgians, Danes, Czechs--the Allied armies are full of volunteers volun-teers from those countries, and in every one of the occupied lands an effective ef-fective opposition to the German conquerors con-querors still drags against them, whereas none of the minor stooge countries allied to the Axis is making a wholehearted effort in its support. Central - American countries have hobbled fifth column work and otherwise other-wise aided. Time is welding a world-wide alliance alli-ance against those who thought to rule the world. Clipping the World by Clipper Not that any more evidence of the shrinking size of . the world was needed, need-ed, but note the 31,000-mile flight of a Pacific Clipper all the way round the world's middle home from the Pacific Pa-cific war zone. Instructed to make their way home by the best available route, her crew simply flew on around the world the long way, touching five continents and making 18 stops under 12 flags. And when they brought the Clipper into New York's La Guardia Field, the crew simply said, "It was routine- we just flew by the book." By the book, mark you; without radio beam or special preparations of any kind. Former specially prepared stunt flights around the world were sensational. sensa-tional. This flight around the world at the equator was unprepared, routine. rou-tine. That is the sensational part of it.

Allen of the Air Corps and an old friend. It was Arnold who gave out the news story that Lindbergh Lind-bergh wanted, to be restored to Army Rolls.. . So far, the War Department knows nothing about it officially. However, when Lindbergh's formal application is received it will be approved and he will be assigned to active duty. Approval wiir be routine, since under Army Procedure, reserve commissions are reinstated without delay de-lay if request is made within 12 months after resignation. After the lapse of a , year, such applications are handled just as original requests. re-quests. But it was only seven months ago that Lindbergh quit. Note: Since the outbreak of the war in the Pacific, strippling Army pilots almost daily are performing feats of daring and skill flying big bombers vast distances, that make the first trans-Atlantic flights look like amateur aviation. For military reasons the story of these spectacular spec-tacular flights now cannot be disclosed. But later it wilt be one of the truly great epics of aviation. BRASS MINE The Bureau of Mines- recently received a phone call from an official ot the OPM metals and minerals division asking about "brass mines." "What are you trying to do, kid us?" said a BM expert. "What do you mean, kid you," protested the OPM-er. 'Tm serious. We want to find out all we can about brass mines how many there are in the country, where located and the total annual production of brass ore." "Mister, we'd like awfully much to accomodate accomo-date you," was ' the flabber-gasted reply. "But any schoolbcy can .tell you that there just is no such animal as a brass . mine. Brass is an alloy made chiefly of copper and zinc." "Oh," was the startled gasp front the OPM end of the line. Note: Testifying before the House Appropriations Approp-riations Committee, David A. Uebelacker, chief of the copper section of the QPM materials division, admitted that he had no previous experience, ex-perience, in the copper industry. "I came to the copper branch without any previous knowledge," he said, "other than what general knowledge the average person has." Before coming to Washington. Wash-ington. Uebelacker was an engineer. MERRY-GO-ROUND Handsome Lend-Lease Administrator Edward Ed-ward Stettinius, who was a U.S. Steel chief before coming to Washington, had a lot to do with starting the ball rolling on the OPM order stopping the production of autos. .

It's of concern to the whole nation, too, but I guess your paper can't yell that loud. It's a few little hints on how to stop cars and tire thefts. It's easy. You got to be you own detective. You've got to assume some of the responsibility of the overworked police. You've got to be as vigilant as a clerk in the postoffice trying to find out about a lettercarrier's business. You've got to keep your car off of obscure ob-scure streets and you've got to keep them locked when they are not in use. You've got to make records of the serial numbers of your tires and other motor equip ment. You've got to watch the other fellows car while he is shopping or earning , the. bacon and report persons meddling with vehicles when another car is near. Yep, you've got to be a Shylock now that tires are worth more than fifold. . PAUL BRIGHT I . Save Steel, Rubber To Help Win the War In an all-out effort of every citizen to help win this war, we should respond whole-heartedly to our government's request to conserve con-serve rubber and steel. I therefore suggest that we do hot ride when we can walk, and that we use a bicycle instead of an automobile where possible. In doing so, we will not only be rendering patriotic patrio-tic service to our country, but we will improve our bodily vigor and streamline our figures by this healthful exercise. For several years past, many of the Hollywood stars 'have resorted to bicycle riding, rid-ing, for. the purpose of keeping their bodies shapely. Then there is the mattery' of economy. Large companies who operated fleets of cars and figure costs carefully, . find that if you take into account the initial purchase pur-chase price of a car, depreciation, up-keep, and expenditures for oil and gasoline, it costs approximately approximate-ly 5 cents per mile to operate art automobile, while a bicycle cad bedridden for only a fraction-of a cent . per mile. So let's be ecc-j nomical and patriotic and ride a bicycle. . JACOB COLEMAN.

After While It Will Draw Tighter New Books In The Library BOTANY BAY by Charles Nor-doff. Nor-doff. Hugh Tallant, the hero and chronicler of the story, is tried at Newgate prison in 1785 for his part in a highway robbery and is sentenced for life to the penal colony in Australia. Tallant's personal account of the long voyage voy-age to Botany Bay, the pitiful strugges of the convict settlers, his long-delayed escape to England, Eng-land, and his eventual pardon by the Crown, made ipossible only through the efforts of the girl he marries, makes this a rich and human story of Hogarthian strength and power. ALL THAT GLITTERS, by Francos Keyes. The background of this lavish novel is the National Capital. Here indeed all that glitters is not gold. The shifting scenes are furnished by the startling changes which take place as the extravagant twenties are succeeded by the lean thirties, which in turn usher -in the chaotic forties. Mrs. Keyes has always written with prodigality prodigal-ity but never before have so many vital and arresting figures moved through the pages of her books. THE KING OF PROXY STREET by Stanley Kauffmann. Dexter Grace, a famous novelist and cosmopolite, returns to the country town of his childhood to spend the last year of life that his doctors have allowed him in writing his final and greatest novel. Back, too, to Proxy street comes an obscure haberdasher whose life has been one constant series of misfortunes. He wants desperately to believe in something but he can find nothing reassuring In his narrow world of pain and confusion. The lives of these two men are woven inextricably together to-gether by the manipulations of what seems a strange destiny, on a chain of narrative that builds to a climax of power and beauty. WILD IS THE RIVER by Louis Bromfield. Exotic, sinister, alluring, with the overblown beauty of a fading enchantress this was New . Orleans during the CiSll war when the presence of an enemy Army withiri its gates served to cast off tradition tra-dition and loose passions long held in check. Tom Bedloe, who had come south with the army of occupation, found in this ancient and beautiful beauti-ful city a curious kinship of spirit, a lustiness . to echo his own wild, undisciplined nature. Then from Boston, a prt in-appearing v young lady and her. intrepid aunt set forth on an adventureous voyage. The young lady was Agnes Wicks, Tom'S fiancee.

At Rio Dei JirVeird Parley By PETER EDSON Herald WasbJngtoir Correspondent : WASHINGTON, Jan. 13 News of .the. .third meeting of the min-isters min-isters of foreign affairs of the 21 American republics, convening at Rio d Janeiro,, Jan.. 15, may- be' buried by war bulletins, but just the same, this conference is important im-portant in relation to what happens hap-pens next in the western hemisphere. hemis-phere. .- - , These '. Pan-American meetings used to be largely oratory. They're getting over that now and these sessions of .the foreign, ministers, after -the plenary opening session ses-sion and the speeches of welcome are out of the way, have been proceeding on: the "What are we here for? Ok Vamonos! Let's get going" idea. Whereupon they break up into committees and try to get something some-thing done. Also,, the , delegates and their technical advisers are beginning to know each other now, and . the informal gathering gather-ing across the hall and up in Guillermo's room do almost as much for building hemisphere solidarity as anything- settled around a conference table. " A good bit of formality waS necesary in the Buenos Aires conference con-ference in 1936 . and at Lima In 1938. That, was the wishf ul, sentimental senti-mental period, but at the meetings meet-ings of foreign .ministers in Panama Pan-ama in 1939 and Havana in 1940 there was the real threat of. the European war. forcing . the delegates dele-gates to adopt realistic policies for safeguarding the hemisphere. Welles Hopeful The tide has now definitely swung in ; our. direction, thinks Under-secretary of State Sumner Sum-ner Wells, the United States representative rep-resentative at the Rio meeting. The American republics are stand-ding stand-ding together and they manifest a greater desire to show unity with us. In addition, there is an element of fear involved a fear of what this war may do to nations not technically Involved that prompts collaboration. No one can talk about or predict what policies the meeting will adopt, but none of the United States goes to Rio at all discouraged about the possible pos-sible outcome, s . .Etare-ati , For the first time, a much more varied aortment of advisers goes along , with Mr. Welles. The undersecretary un-dersecretary Is generally regarded as sufficient unto ..himself in handling diplomatic angles of any international meeting, but so involved in-volved are the war issues that a panel of , experts from . government govern-ment agencies other than the State Department will make up the contingent from Washington.

' The purpose . of this big . delegation dele-gation is to simplify the making of decisions at the meeting with out having to ' refer technical questions back to Washington and so delay procedure, interesting to note is the absence of Army and Navy officers. This is a peace meeting and not a war strategy council. . In spite of the size of the U.S. delegation, each nation gets only one vote, and that is cast by the official representative in our case, Sumner Welles. As the meeting me-eting breaks up into committees, however,-the member, of the delegation dele-gation assigned to each committee commit-tee - may cast the vote for his country. 58 Inches Snow In Aftiericah Fork Canyon Is Report PLEASANT GROVE - A greater total snowfall. for December, Decem-ber, 1941 than for the same period the previous year, was shown by the report of Thomas A. Walker, parks ranger, and weather, observer ob-server at the Timpanogos cave national monument region. At the Timpanogos divide, the point of highest elevation on the observation district, Mr. Walker recorded 58.46 inches as the depth of the . snow, as compared to 47.86 inches last year. This snow, in addition to being deeper, also showed a greater water content and density, according to the report re-port . Similar conditions were shown at the other stations, with 19 inches at the cave camp, 24 at the south fork, 44 at Altamount. More precipitation . was also recorded, the total for December being 8.14 inches, as compared to 6.62 inches last year.
