War Equipment May Soon Be Sent To Iceland, Belief WASHINGTON. July 8 (UP) - President Roosevelt said today that United States defense of the western hemisphere will not be measured by geographical considerations. He said at a press: conference that there are points outside of the commonly accepted western hemispheric limits that are of vital importance to continental defense. He did not j identify these territories. Neither would he say whether he considered Iceland inside or outside the western hemisphere, emphasizing that he ordered its occupation by U. S. naval forces because of its strategic importance in the entire hemispheric defense plan. Occupation of Iceland, huge comisland athwart British munication Jines to .this . country, began yesterday. The president w'ould not discuss the possibility that he find inter - American might safety endangered by conditions in Portugal's Azores or Spains Canary Islands and order them occupied. Theie have been persistent demands in congress that U. S. forces take over the Azores, the Cape Verdes, the Canary Islands, and French Dakar to thwart what Mr. Roosevelt yesterday termed a threatened movement German pincer against this hemisphere. The president treated as a military secret information concerning the presence of United States troops in Greenland over which this country assumed a protectorate last winter. Likewise, no information could be obtained from other official sources on the strength of the occupational forces in Iceland. London dispatches reported that this country's bluejackets marines would relieve and "approximately 80.000" British forces in Iceland. Some military experts questioned this estimate of the British strength island and in the octhey doubted that the U. S. cupation unit would approximate this figure. It was believed likely that a stream of heavy equipment-b- ig and small guns, weapons and other mechanized weapons soon would flow to Iceland to replace or British equipment. augment This is a military secret, however. i 5 taen n TO HEP SOLDIER BOYS GETS RESPONSE UP AND DOWN STALIN LINE resident of Brigham BERLIN, Wednesday, July 9 -- UP) Germany in the comtoday 'defort, welfare and happiness of nounced the United States octhe soldier boys who have gone cupation of Iceland as aggresfrom this community and are sion putting Americans in the now freely giving of their time European war zone and a stab and service to their country, in the-- back "at a time when next week will be given a Germany, in the name of the chance to prove their patri- w'hole civilized world, is enotism. gaged in a war against BolThe United Service Organ- shevism." izations, a nation-wid"Roosevelt has elected to group and part of the National De- enter the war zone, where no fense, Inc., through its local quarter is given, the German committee, will start a cam- radio said in an English lanis interested i e paign here next Tuesday, July 15. to raise funds as is now being done in every community in the entire nation at the present time. The funds will be used for a worthy purpose, that of maintaining a high morale among our 1,500,000 young men now under arms in this country. Morale is an important thing to the soldier boy and can best be mainlained by providing him with religious, educational and recreational programs. This is the job of the United Service organization with the aid of the government, who will provide the necessary buildings at every camp in the nation. Of the United Service program President Roosevelt said: There is no enterprise more of milvital to the lions of young people who are their country's rallying to call. Ross C. Bowen, president of the Rotary club, is directing the efforts of the local committee. Secretary to M,r. Bowen is May V. Jenson, president of club. the Civic Improvement Members of the board of directors are heads of all the local clubs and organizations. Speaking of the aims of the United Service organization and the work to be accomplished at the camps, Mr. Bowen said: There is no worthier cause than contributing to a fund to be used to provide our soldier boys with something interesting to do, or a place to go, instead of just standing lonesome on a street corner in some distant city. well-bein- NUMBER 132 BATTLE OF DECISION Stab In The Back Charge The Nazis Of United States Worthy Endeavor Every who 1911 U.S. IN ICELAND, Barefoot FROM GERMANY Ross Bowen Will Direct Local Groups In 5), Girls Hunt Dad In Chicago PLANS LAID broadcast. guage "Europe considers his action unheard of interference, and will not tol- erate t. The broadcast followed comment by an informed nazi source that "Roosevelt now has entered the operations area of the European theater of war, and therefore will have to bear the consequences. The Germans borrowed the Mr. Roosevelt terminology himself used in describing Italys entry into the war when the French collapse was imminent stab in the back" and applied it to the American move to the east. The commentator said that Iceland never was threatened by Germany and Mr. Roosevelt could by no stretch of the imagination regard Iceland as a part of the western hemisphere. Emphasis was placed on the assertion that the occupation violated the sovereignly of the Icelandic people who wanted to remain independent. g COT HARVEST STARTSTODAY The harvest of sweet cherries is nearing completion in the fruit growing districts of Box Elder, it was learned Tuesday from shippers. The cherries were of good quality this season, and most of the growers who have shipped their fruit on a cooperative basis will receive better than average prices, it is expected. Shipments of large quantities of sweet cherries to eastern markets by the Box Elder Produce Growers Cooperative is now complete with the sixth ear loaded and shipped Monday, it was learned from Earl Anderson, manager. The harvesting of apricots will start today, with a scant crop and high prices, growers report. All tonnage this year will be marketed by local cohousewives and operatives, would be wise to fulfill their canning needs early before the crop is shipped.

AMERICANS WIN BIGGEST DRIVES AGAINST REDS SAID TO BE ON CENTRAL FRONT AND KIEV BERLIN, July 8 (UP) A gigantic "battle of decision surpassing any other of the war was reported raging tonight at two points here along the Stalin line both Germans and Russians hurled masses of men and mat terials Into an struggle. The nazi high command, reverting to its reticence that marked the beginning of the assault on Russia, spoke only of operations continuing "according to plan" but other quarters reported successes in r assaults against the soviet line of steel and concrete. Off the Rumanian Black sea coast, the DNB agency said, a German attacked a Russian destroyer attempting to shell the coast during "heavy air battles Sunday and blew it to bits, hurling pieces of plaiiklng and steel into the air. The DNB, describing the assaults on the Stalin line, which is reported to have been broken through at several points already, said that Ger-ma- n and Rumanian forces had overcome stubborn soviet resistance on the southern Bessarabian front and driven the Russians back to the Dniester river. (The German radio, heard by NBC, said that Hungarian troops advancing across Galicia had crossed the Dniester to the outer defenses of the Stalin line after repulsing Red army forces.
