Show UINTAH I? 4 SIN RECORD GENERAL Embroidered Picture Doctor Bids Babies to Huge Party Of Freedoms Lady HUGH S. JOHNSON Jour: l.PhiMpr Washington, JP. C. HITLER AND U. S. ' From diplomatic information it is possible to get a general idea of what the immediate future will bring forth in Europe if Hitler takes Eng' land, as he seems sure to do in the next month. FIRST, be will want to buy U, S. cotton and grain in large quantities in fact, he will be willing to take most of our surplus but he will want a huge loan from the United States government to do it This will be called reconstruction financing, and it will be tempting bait to farming and business groups. SECOND, it is more than likely that Hitler will offer Jo freeze the armaments of Europe and the United States on the basis of their present armed strength. This also will be tempting to a American public. The United States always has favored disarmament, and several times has proposed freezing armaments. How' ever, this was when France and England had an army and navy, and when this country was protected by them in South America. Hitler's reported plan Today, would leave the United States with less than 250,000 men, Germany with about 3,000,000. In other words, Latin America would be open to attack at any time, and the United States would be powerless to prevent it, Nevertheless, Hitlers plans would have strong appeal in the United States, especially if accompanied by the usual Nazi propaganda stating that Hitler had only the kindliest ideas about the United States and cherished absolutely no designs for any part of her soil. Note This was the propaganda Germany dropped from airplanes on France before the tanks came. It told how France and Germany had no basic quarrel, could live in peace tax-ridd- indefinitely. HITLERS SECRET GAS All the evidence gathered by military agents abroad now points to the probability that Hitlers secret plan for conquering Britain is poison gas. It is significant that so far, Hitler has not used gas. Even more significant is the fact that he has been storing it up in huge reserves. French and British Intelligence officers have sent back reports that alarming quantities are now manufactured and ready for use. Whether any new and more deadly form of gas has been perfected, they do not know. One reason Hitler did not use gas in attacking France and Belgium was that his army was moving too fast. His tanks and armored cars were penetrating into the enemy lines so rapidly that they would have caught up with their own gas. It would have hampered Nazi opera- tions rather than aided them. But in England it will be different. For the English channel lies between Germany and her victim. There will be no danger of the gas seeping back to Nazi invaders until they actually land troops. And so far all evidence indicates that before attempting to land troops. Hitler will subject England to a rain of bombs such as the world never has seen before. Only after Hitler has gassed and bombed England to the verge of surrender will the Nazi attack by sea begin. Mited Feature THE PLANE IDEA Edsel Well, Pop, what do you think of it?

Refugees to Canada From British Isles Both men are leading citizens with honorable and distinguished records. Mr. Stimson was at one time secretary of war and at another, secretary of state. In neither position did he leave any record that would recommend him as a great cabinet minister. As secretary of state he was ready to use force to a oppose Japan in Manchukuo, course which, however would have been fatal to the American strategical position in the Far East.

Such temporary service relatively subordinate commands sometimes fortunately not fre quently leaves the veteran with the conviction that Providence real ly intended him as a latter-daNapoleon or at least a master strategy, logistics and tactics. That is true in both these cases In both, this conviction has per' suaded these gents that we should commence firing tomorrow before we get guns to fire. That strategic folly is another danger of this blitzkrieg move. high-minde- d, Edsel I dont think theres much more work on this plane than on a de luxe sedan. Henry Not as much.

This, they know, would be disastrous to the country, but also from a purely political viewpoint it would mean the defeat of President Roosevelt or any other Democratic candidate at the polls in November.

Mr. Stimson has been raising his voice for us to repeat the follies of 1917 and 1918 in a steadily increasing clamor until his most recent blasts insisted on our convoying contraband of war to Britain and opening our naval bases to the British fleet both irretrievable acts of war. Mr. Knox has been preaching armed intervention for months. This choice leaves no doubt whatever about the Presidents own intentions.
