H By Charles 11 Driscoll i NEW VORk—On a recent Sunday morni ing I talked at breakfast at the West Side YMCA and wb!le my listeners didn't go away much wiser than they came I learned some interesting things about the functioning of a big organization The Sunday morning breakfast beginning at 9 o'clock and ending promptly at 10 is a feature of :life at this great center Each Sunday morning some speaker talks Informally during half of the breakfast hour That 30 minutes includes a brief introduction and closing remarks by the chairman so the speaker has about 25 Minutes to himself The reason for the emphasis upon timing Is that most- - of the men in the breakfast audience want to go to church After the benediction parties are made up in the halls for the Various churches in the neighborI hood New York butchers have their own casualty insuranceh company with swank offices street Files contain In West intimate accounts of every possible kind of accident that may be had with a butcher knife Experts ir the organization can tell you in One minute what are the chances that an inexperiert led lad of 18 may cut off a finger or permn iently damage his thumb during the first 3qtr of his employment in a butcher shop Still it is almost impossible to find a real butcher shop as we understand the expression out west in Manhattan The proprietors seldom use the title butcher shop Meat store is the accepted And there are hundreds of pork style stores specializing in sausages and pigs' feet Released by McNaught Syndicate Inc Fifty-sevent- George Gadsby president of the Utah Power and Light company declared in calling the meeting that fear of Immediate shortage of power is not the purpose of the pool It is rather a move to prevent serious interruption of the supply to Utah communities by reason of or air raids He also pointed out that voluntary action'by utility units such as this is likely to avert any interference from federal agencies M -

' When officials of power utilities municipal and privately owned got together recently to form a state-wid- e pool to insure supplies of electrical energy to all parts of Utah they gave evidence that under a democratic government and a system of free enterprise widely differing factions can bury the hatchet and join efforts when a real emergency arises With this country at war with growing needs for power in defense industries and with danger of sabotage increasing daily the importance of organizing some such pool of facilities is apparent Eepresentatives of seven municipal plants and four private companies located in Utah gathered last Thursday to approve a program for mutual assistance to operate for the duration of the war It contemplates exchange of power in ease of damage to any system as well as transfer of personnel and equipment to take care of emergency conditions The Utah pool will be joined in turn to those of Idaho Montana and the Pacific northwest and will make available a regional total of 2695000 kilowatts of electrical 1 nazi-Frenc- rnot ' i moefritchaisnsnaif- -- y 1 i Dora walked iff three pounds of it terday while shopping for a girdle I yes- i Furthermore the British pointed out that there is no positive guarantee that if the nazis need some of the foodstuffs shipped to Morocco they will not have it shipped across the Mediterranean to French ports and thence' to the reich U S Attitude American official circles have adopted a different attitude however in regard to France In these quarters there is still a strong belief that Marshal Vichy chief of state is more or less a free agent and that by complying with some of his pleas to feed his "starving children" we may postpone the evil h moment of complete military and political cooperation In some official Washington quarters it le pointed out that the American problem regarding the French government is not the same as that of Great Britain The British who once were the ally of France broke off diplomatic relations with the French government after' the collapse of the republic and British warships were compelled to take measures against French warships off Oran in 1940 The fact that the British are on bad terms with the French does not mean that we will follow London some of our leading diplomats say Under heavy pressure from Washington the British foreign office and the admiralty complied with the American request for the necessary navicerts for the departing ships But there is no question that the British government is more suspicious than ever of the Vichy government and is convinced that its alleged independence is merely a matter of convenience for the nazi government Britain's military and naval authorities also feel certain that when the time comes for Hitler to exact from France full participation in this total war neither lkiarshal retain nor his vice premier Admiral Darlan will be able to resist the demands If they do they will be forced out and another set of politicians—who are on hand both in Paris and Vichy—will be put in their place Calls Neutrality Illusion British observers do not believe however that such a change will be necessary The present French rulers behind the screen of desiring to save France from internal dissension will regretfully do what Hitler tells them to exactly do the British declare These same quarters point out that the diplomatiC victory we obtained at Vichy by preserving the neutrality of the French fleet is a mere illusion Confidential information received in Washington indicates that the French fleet is getting ready for sea duty and neither the British nor our own men will be surprised if navy hear in the near future thatthey the "Marine Nationale" rejuvenated with new personnel which was handpicked and trained by Vichy French naval officers—all of whom are imbued with hatred for the British and not much sympathy for the United States —has joined the axis forces' This union of French and nazi naval strength may not occur in aotual fleet formation From reports received here and in London it appears the French will start by patrolling their own stretches of the Mediterranean and prevent any British interference with shipping between French and north African ports nommet Reinforced This in itself appears harmless and should not fairly cause any misgivings But the British are firmly convinced that the army of Field Marshal Erwin Rommel- - in Libya which has been heavily battered in the last two months all of a sudden gained offensive power This must have come from somewhere in Europe and since the British are satisfied that only a small percentage of transports going from Italy to Libya have escaped their submarines and surface ships they feel sure that fresh Gerinan troops new tanks and ammunition have reached Marshal Rommel through Algeria and Tunisia Pe-ta- Japs and nazis take us over They would hesitate Aoi strip us of everything ' Pooling Electric Power To Promote National Defense I : sitsamwPosrth ArillotthhiengwetaoltAh taillodn ' ' i::::1 'e -
