Lord Louis Mount batten, the ex-Captain of the Illustrious, Illus-trious, will soon be making front page news again, but that's a naval secret He was telling us about the sinking of the Hood by the Bismarck and the way the Bismarck was chased, trapped and destroyed. Mountbatten suggested that the complete exciting sea saga be given to the newspapers to cheer lovers of freedom. "Heavens, no!" ejaculated the Admiral. "No more publicity. The incident has had too much of a press as it is!" 0 0 0 Observation: Eddy Duchln says he's surprised that none of the isolationist iso-lationist editors headlined it this way: "American Destroyer Rams Nazi Torpedo!" 0 0 0 We've Met Her: A lovely blonde walked into a night spot, nose in air.

By Way of Report: Most papers missed this bit at the Bioff-Browne trial, where testimony about thousand thou-sand dollar bills is being tossed about like confetti. Judge John C Knox, who has a sensayuma, was questioning Nick Schenck of MGM, who was having trouble remembering remember-ing his annual Income. "Well, Just try to give it to us approximately, ap-proximately, within $73,000," said Hizzoner, whose record is the best on the federal bench, whose decisions deci-sions involve billions and whose salary sal-ary is 110,000 a year. O O 0 Idiom's Dellfht: Seymour Berk-son Berk-son of Int'l News contributed this one to the book of anecdotes called "The Best I Know." An American Reporter was summoned to the office of-fice of the Moscow censor, who angrily an-grily objected to this dispatch: "The American Ambassador stood within a stone's throw of Stalin ..." "What do you mean by this outrageous out-rageous insult?" thundered the cen sor. "You know perfectly well that he didn't throw a stone at Mr. Stalin!" The reporter finally explained it was an American idiom. "So?" said the dope. "In that case we change it anyway. Make it: The American Ambassador stood near Stalin. He threw NO stones!' 0 0 0 - Vn co mm on Sense: Conrad Thi- bault tells of the three appeasers who were crossing the Arabian Desert "Look," said one. "there's an ostrich with its bead in the sand.

S. plans for an important im-portant new base defending the Pan ama CanaL Plans had been carefully care-fully laid for commercial development develop-ment of an island off the coast ol Ecuador, to be followed by naval installations. But genial Jesse Jones innocently let the cat out of the bag, and the Germans did the rest The island is known as Alber-marle, Alber-marle, in the Galapagos group, lying ly-ing southwest of Panama, a perfect location for watching Japanese maneuvers ma-neuvers near thcxPaciflc entrance of the canaL To inspect it Roosevelt went fishing there three years ago, when the U. S. S. Houston took him on a Pacific cruise. Roosevelt hsd heard about the Galapagos since childhood. His great-uncle, Capt Amasa Delano, put in at the islands on his voyages to China. And his mother, as a young girL stopped there on a voyage voy-age to China. The President personally was responsible re-sponsible for the strategy of forming form-ing an American trading company to develop Albemarle. Ha knew the sensitive Latins, knew that a direct proposal tor building a U. S. naval base would arouse the old enemies of "Yankee imperialism," and that the only safe way was to set up a company for the development of fishing fish-ing and cattle, thus bring the navy in edgeways. Accordingly, the Pacific Development Develop-ment company was formed, incorporated incor-porated in Delaware, and financed with funds from the RFC. First it got a credit of $30,000, but later, when a credit of half a million was extended, RFCzar Jesse Jones innocently inno-cently announced it to the press. Jesse Jones' Joke. Apparently the naval stratagem was such a dark secret that even Jesse, a member of the cabinet, didn't know about it. So be announced an-nounced it as nothing but a commercial commer-cial development, because the island is-land was owned not by Ecuador but by a private individual. And then he added a little Jest of his own. "And if you can spell the man's name," said Jesse, "I'll give you the island. The name is pronounced heel.' " Up spoke a correspondent who knows Spanish well. "You spell it G-i-L" he said. "That's right," said Jones. "Go to the head of the class." "No," said the newsman. "I want the island." "I'll owe you the island," said Jones, and everybody laughed. But there was no laughter in the navy department; for German propaganda, prop-aganda, through short-wave radio and local newspapers, stirred up the old fear of Yankee aggression, intimating in-timating that a U. S. naval base off the west coast of South America Amer-ica would make little puppets of the Good Neighbors for all time. The propaganda was successful, and the deal had to be cancelled. It may be that the Pacific Development Devel-opment company will still pursue its "livestock, fishing, and mining of sulphur," as provided in the concession, con-cession, but President Roosevelt's dream of a Panama defense base is sunk. a MORE CRACKDOWNS You can put it down as a cVrtaintj that there will be other OPM crackdowns, crack-downs, in addition to the one on the Chicago ."juke-box" firm, for "bootlegging" scarce raw materials OPM Priorities Director Donald Nelson said nothing about it, but be has his gimlet eye fixed on a big steel plant, an auto manufacturer and others. Both have been secretly thumbing their noses at priority restrictions. re-strictions. The auto maker was called on the carpet by Nelson and spent several uncomfortable hours trying to explain ex-plain the unauthorized purchase oi a large quantity of strategic materials materi-als and the action of a parts subsidiary sub-sidiary selling such supplies. When the auto executive left OPM he was red-faced and obviously worried. wor-ried. The steel company is suspected of secretly filling orders tor big customers cus-tomers in direct violation of defense requirements, particularly naval. An investigation is now under way. The company' baa a long history of bat tling the government and the fur will fly if the suspicions are substantiated. sub-stantiated. Note: After Nelson's'investigators finish with, their aluminum' inquiries they will move into chemicals, where there have been namerous complaints com-plaints of wholesale disregard .of priority pri-ority orders.
