Strike Situation and Japanese Crisis Prove Nation's Toughest Problems; Winter Closes In on Eastern Front As Russia Reports Taking Offensive (EDITOR'S NOTE When opinions are expressed In these columns, they are those of the newi analyst and not necessarily of this newspaper.) (Released by Western Newspaper Union.) KURUSU: Last Try? Most observers of the situation In the Pacific believed that with the arrival of Saburo Kurusu in Wash-ington the last stage of the difficult effort of Japan and the United States to avoid war had been reached. During his plane trip to this coun-try there had been little of encour-aging press comment, and the state department had again and again re-peated its gloomy outlook. Officials of the cabinet, particu-larly Secretary Knox of the Navy, STRIKES: At Showdown Congressional passage of the Neu-traht- y act changes was a victory for the administration in that Pres-ident Roosevelt stood his ground on his labor position, declining to meet a growing demand for legislation outlawing strikes, and laws setting a ceiling on wages. Yet the narrow margin in the house (20 votes) also was consid-ered a severe rebuke to the Presi-dent for his attitude, and there were signs in the press and in congress that legislators and editors were get-ting ready to kick over the traces. Crucial situations had faced the President both over the strikes in captive coal mines owned by steel companies, largely occupied in de-fense work, and in the threatened railroad strike. There had been little evidence that the White House was getting anywhere in either struggle, though the President had made manful ef-forts to dissuade John L. Lewis and his U.M.W. from going overboard. It was this situation more than any other which had caused the de-fection of many administration sup-- J " 1 1 ft I I H ' 1 - - - -- 1 ! j AA. I j SABURO KURUSU "A gloomy outlook. had expressed this same view of de-pression over any chance of a peace-ful settlement. StiU Kurusu had arrived, had been greeted with smiles by Amer-ican diplomats, and the conversa-tions were on. Basic difficulty of solving an equa-tion where Japan was at war with China and both Britain and Amer-ica had declared this war an act of aggression and had geen giving and promising aid to China was openly apparent. Japan was urging the United States: "Leave us alone in China!" The United States was demanding of Japan: "You let China alone!" . These points were poles apart. ARK ROYAL: Finally Sunk Most famous of the British air-craft carriers, Ark Royal, sunk several times according to Berlin dispatches, finally has been sent to the bottom, and it was London, not Berlin, which announced it. It sank 25 miles off Gibraltar, while in tow of other warships after a had torn a terrific hole in her side. Pumps were unavailing to repair the damage, and practical-ly aU of the 1,600 aboard her had been removed save just enough men to handle the towing lines. Finally, when she was nearing shallow water at last, she suddenly turned over on her side like a "tired child' and went to the bottom. Only one man of her crew was reported lost. It was regarded as probable that many of her planes had been able to fly ashore and make port. Thus went to the bottom of the Mediter-ranean the third aircraft carrier Britain had lost, the largest and newest, launched in 1938, of 22,000 tons. JOHN L. LEWIS The President made manful efforts. porters during the Neutrality act voting. The "closed shop" issue in the mine strike, never very popular in circles not closely allied with labor unions, caused the outburst of anti-strik- e feeling to be particularly severe. RUSSIANS; On Warpath Long on the defensive, and having lost matiy thousands of square miles of territory, Russia had assumed the offensive all along the vast front. Moscow was reporting considerable success against the Nazis, and re-ported that the Germans had been suffering from frostbite, that they were exhausted and discouraged, but admitted that back of the front there were evidences that another offensive was 'being formed. Those who believed Hitler would order any withdrawal because of the weather were having to revise their opinions. The Russian drive against the Germans was meeting with the same rugged resistance the Reds themselves had offered against the Nazis. ' Successes were reported in the far north, where Kuibyshev dis-patches declared 20 German trans-ports had been sunk in what was to have been a major invasion at- - tempt in the Murmansk sector. Also 2,500 Italians had been re-ported "eliminated" in the Crimean sector, and victories also were claimed by Russia in the Donets basin area. The Finns were being hurled back in front of Leningrad, and the gen-eral Russian tone was one of con-fidence, yet watchfulness, the lat-ter being stressed because Red headquarters figured the Germans still had at least one more huge at-tack up their sleeves. VICHY: To Join Hitler Hardly unexpected at this time, and with the hostage-shootin- g mat-ter being what it was, had come the report that Vichy was planning to "go the whole hog" and throw in with Hitler's 'new order." It had been known for a long time where the sympathies of Darlan and Laval had been, but Petain was supposed to have been more or less on the fence. History one day might recount, observers felt, that there was some strange and mysterious connection between the fatal plane crash which killed General Huntziger and the decision to join the Axis. Huntziger, minister of war, had just been to Africa, presumably con-ferring with Mystery Man Weygand and was on his way back home to a momentous meeting of the govern-ment when his plane fell and he was killed. ' Many wondered what bearing this would have on the situation in Nazi-Vich- y relations. BUSES: Americans, inured to plane crashes now" that thousands of army ships were daily in the air and on maneuv-ers, were shocked when, for the second time in a few weeks, there had been a disastrous bus accident. In the first, more than a score were killed when a bus hit a culvert and burst into flames. In the more recent one, a loaded bus, swerving to avoid a passenger machine, struck a culvert, turned over and rolled down an embank-ment, buist into flames, killing six. TURKEY: An Offer Axis sources were reported to have made Turkey an offer of Thrace as a last inducement to get the Turks to join the triple alliance. The sudden interest in Turkey on the part of Germany, as borne out in reports from both BerUn and Bern was rather a puzzle to some, while others saw in it the possibility that Germany might, now that she was somewhat bogged down in Rus-sia, be seeking a Turkish route to Russian oil wells. Three possibilities were seen that Turkey had already decided to throw' in with the Axis that in-creased pressure would be brought to bear on Turkey in line with Bern's view of the situation) and third, that Germany might be satis-fied to have Turkey neutral and aloof but fearing that American and Brit-ish pressure from the south might turn her from her neutral course to a h stand. LIFE: A picture of what life was like in Serbia following the collapse of resistance against the southward plunge of the Nazi war machine was painted by the refugee Jugoslav government. Reports reaching it were that about 8,100 hostages, including in-tellectuals, priests and students, had been executed in three villages. The executions had been main-tained, said Premier General Simo-vi-bad been carried out at the rate of 100 to 1, in retaliation. Simovic said: "We ask that Serb-ian irregulars now fighting should be treated as a regular army. They are fighting their enemy according to recognized international rules. "We are going to hold the German and Italian occupation authorities responsible for these murders, atrocities and cruelties. "We accuse before public opinion the Germans and Italians for the use of medieval methods to annihi-late the Serbian and Slovene rjeople. "The time for settlement has not come, but it is not far off." ' Aaalniboine Th Indian tribal name Asainl-boi- n means "stone boiler, from the practice of cooking by dropping hot stones into vessels of water. If you spend much time in the glare of the sun, may be advisable especially if you are blue eyed. But be sure that you get a good pair of ground and polished lenses. When pressing men's suits al-ways press over a damp cloth. It takes less sugar for stewed apples if sugar is added after cooking. - Often a coat of paint is saved by first washing the walls before repainting them. This removes the soil and stains and assures a better job and takes less paint. Directly under the skin of pota-toes is a valuable nutritional lay-er, so, whenever possible, cook potatoes in their jackets. The skin can then be peeled off easily with-out loss of food value. Crocheted bedspreads can be washed, but they should be care-fully spread out on a clean sheet to dry and not hung on a line. If food burns in a pan, shake a generous amount of soda into it, fill with cold water and let stand on back of stove until pan can be easily cleaned.
