Carson A. ReopelV, S I'-c., son of Mr. and Mrs. E. Reopell o f Bolton, CamnmoctinU road,, arrived at his home Friday for a 21-day furlough after a year’s tervlco In the South Pa-cjfic. He has taken part in five m ajor. Jnvasiona, the last-being Okina-wk. Upon completion of hi* furlough he.will return too th s Coast where he will rejoin his ship.

Colchester, Ma^ 15,— East:- em Connecticut poultry \alscra have pledged'War Food Ad trator Henry B. Mosle to tartly supply to public and prival hospitals and institutions in th* state what he determines to be their poultry needs.

Mosle got tjiis promise last night after he had addressed a meeting here of the Connecticut Pbultiy Raisers association, comprising more tfiob 100 poultrymeh in Tol­land, ..Windham, Middlesex and Ney/ London coun^, and. which was formed earlier in the evening with Attorney''Morrifl Broder as temporary- chairman."'. -

Broder said after' the meeting that the association was formed "primarily' to deal with the food emergency cited by Governor Bald­win In his necent special message to the Legislature asking emer- genc.v powers to deal with a .food shortage.

Will Ke«q> Pledge "But," he added,^"the members

of this association will keep their pledge to Mr. Mo*1e snd to Cover- rfcr Baldwin whether or not the bill now pending before the Legis­lative Agriculture committee is enacted Into law.’’

This bill, drawn immediately after Baldwin's special message had 1)eea read,' provides the gov­ernor to "seize wherever found” within the state all potential food supplies except poultry and ani­mals used for breeding purposes.

Brodner said that his group would seek io organize ail Con­necticut p'-.ultry i-aisei 8 behind the

xpledge to meet the needs of-Imth ^ b l i c and private Imspltals 'aud institutions "and the private con­sumers ns well.”

Poultryir.en who attended the meeting'said they doubted if Con- nectlctic demands— public and pri­vate—couid absorb as much os 20 per r.-mt of the state's total poultry production. ' ' '-

Normally 90 per cent of it goes to out-of-state markets, they s(tid; A grouo headed by Milton Puret- ski, a ‘ local raiser, Sunday said they would voluntaril.v increase to 15 per cent that part o f their

cut consumption.Leon Giemboski of Colchester is

temporary secretary of the ssso-t elation nnd with A. Schneider of Bozrah and William Wriner of Colchestir, he and Brodner make up the Executive committee.

No Football MatchThe Odrinan Ecnerala are atill

getting away with’ murder, but the instant prcaaure o f both pul^ lie opinion and government policy

ema likely to end their brief en- Bt o f immunity. . There la-

.one really aerioua queatlon about ThOM inatancea in which theM g o i ^ l a have been able to get away htiUi the pretense that they were mmely ending a polite war. That la whether or not they

' have not already kicceeded in ea- tabllahing the prOfnise - upon

.. Htaich their future Idog range hopes are baaed. The p r^ ia e Which ia the very breaUi of their own tomorrow ia the premiae th|M It waa the Kami party, not 6 ^ man generalahip, which ioa't thb war.

• - Unfortunately, w e,have'already adlowed toe many Of ^ 'm the op> portunlty to say just that, for German ears. .We allowed Admi­ral DoeBta broadcast. that the party, h a ^ deserted the scene. In Marihid^ Montgomery’s area of OerhiaBy, we allowed another Ger-

^rdan general to . proclaim, to the ' German people, over a radio we

controlled, that he had been rec ognised as the new German au­thority for that region. We let Goering get out his mouthings to the effect that even he was differ­ent from Hitler.

The central isai^ in all this, is not whether aomi^individual Ger­man general . will escape punish­ment for'h is crimes. It is wheth­er the traditional Prussian clique o f Germany will w rvive as a Clique, fo r ' the breeding of future generals and future plans of war.

In order so tc survive, this clique must come out Of this war with the respect o f the, German people. And every time we let them spread the propaganda that it. was Hitler and the Nasis, not they, who started and-fought this war, we increase their. chance of survival. When wb let General von Falkenhorat, commander - in Norway, broadcast that the Allies had “ liberated the German, Army and people” from, the Nazis,- -we vvere playing the Prussian game.. Two things may be leading-us

Into such mistakes. One is. no doubt, the serious d ifficu lty of trying to And any Germans who can take leadership and respohst- bility in the task of reorganizing the life of the German-people. But

-the other fa1;t6r which leads us into such errors in probably the

■ acceptance, by some of ou r' ov-'n commanders,, of the thepiy ad­vanced by one of the.se same Ger­man generals the other day. This was General Heinz Guderian who

■ was being “held in custody’’ by bis American captois, and who- granted''an interview at his ‘ ‘cus­tody’* hotel.

' “ A soldier after battl'e ' soon feels' at home with other sol­diers,'* said General . Guderian. “ It ’s like a football match, when |rou shake hands and wish edch other tuck, .politicians and busi- sess men, unfortyhately, feel and set otherwise.”

These are very pretty senti­ments, and it seems obvious enough that there have been some AUlsd efficera who have fallen far themi But they do not iceord with public aentlment ip sny AUlad country. They do not tocord with the Thlta pledge for the penBaoent deatrucUon o f the Berman high conunand.

On this basis, the primary Japanese objective haa been the contrbk^f communications and the Inalltm tion o f blo^ade' rather than the foot-by-fpot . control of large masses of Chinese, territory. Could this blockade have been he(d, It was inevitable that, sooner br later, Chi"* should come to her knees. As it is, the thjn trickle of Allied supplies by the air route, and now by the Burma road again, have been enough just enough to keep China in the war, waiting for bigger help.

Now more than the. help of supplies is on the wa|y. It is no secret that Allied armies are on the way, too. And the prospec­tive Introduction of su ch 'rea l fighting power to the Chinese the­atre finds the Japanese system of occupation vulnerable. The Japa­nese hold all of northeast China. In addition, they hold a corridor^ •down, through China to the soifth China cosist. But to the ew t of this, corridor jhere is atill a great .masa o f territory which la In the hands o f the Chinese, with .the im­portant exception of narrow zones of Japanese occupation of the ports along the coast.

Now comes news that Chinese from this imconqnercd piece of territory jubt back from the coast have‘surged forward and.made an entry into one of Umlm ports— that of Foochow. . . Borne reportq indicate that the Chinese troops found not too much opposition, a fact wbicm-la leading to suggefi-

-the acquisition of territory. We did not fight this war to turn Eli*' rope into a territorial ..grab bag.

' I t is another of those preblerpa with which Europe‘ Abounds, a problem in which ethnological lines, mili­tary security lines, and economic lines are ail tangled up.

A fter the last .war, the boun­dary makers acknowledged popu­lation lines ap Cheir guiding prin­ciple. BuL they occasionally, as in the Instance of the. Sudeteriland, violated this principle in favor of a fancied military security.. And neither they nor the tndi'yidual or. cooperative action of/Che. small European^ nations succeeded in breaking down those^ tariff walls which divided Furope 'into a suc­cession o f t^ ea lth y and unpros- perous economic units..

Looking to the future, the best maBs cure. for Europe’s problems, that can be offered is a program fo f a real lowering of edonomic boundaries. Such a program would do much to make national boundaries less important. .

The peacemakers m'ay come, too,, to a rather widespread adop­tion of the one painful but even­tually 'cpnatructfve program Hit­ler did adopt for Eur6pe--the transfer of racial' minorities out of the trouble corners of the con­tinent.

Any such general prograpis' for Europe adU have aome healing in­fluence on the eolution of. a epeci- fle problem like that ef .Trtetto.

-At-,,any rate, 'the important thltag is that these specific prob­lems be ecttlcd at the peace con­ference, and not by imirjedlate unilatcfal action .on the part of membera of the winning, coalition who happen to be territory-hun­gry. The Unitisd ffUtce and Brit- aln are completely right in refua- Ing to allow Marshal t lt o to achieve his own conqifeet of Trieste now.

There Is alwayrsRuch a madbou'ee period before ^ jo i ment, but this seema likely to the most hiKstic and confuted history, .

Pantdoxioally enough, good can come e«it of rfuch a period.' SosBetlmes the legtelatore for­get tbenwelves, and stampede, feverishly for a good piece ot legislation. Sometlmee they re­alize how thelc. .eesaion aOems In the eyes >of the sfhte, and-they make last minute repairs OE. their reputation by selecting one or two worth while meas­ures for passage. Sometimes, after having' fliisJly get their jobs, they generously, decide to give the state something too.

The OPA and W FA already have the power to confis­cate stocks they suspect o f being in black market and can atill do so, and when they do the black market lets up. W e don’t need anpUier agency, to do what can already be dpne.

With large tobacco corporations importing labor from the West Indies and feeding them meat of their own slaughtering to the ex­tent o f two poimda o f meat per man per day in some cases it would -aeem the state of Con­necticut could go into ^the slaugh­tering buain^sa^lf necessary.' A majority of ouf'-'Miortages, food or othefwlse, could bej;emedied If the waste and mismanagement were jaken out of the purchasing already being done. A "reason­able" rise in OPA prices on poul­try ia not one and a half cents. Would one and a half cents an hour, be a reasonable increase'If certain wAr indiistplea needed an increase to cover the cost of liv­ing?

In short, Connecticut farming cannot make bricks without straw as to food production and further agencies won't remedy a situation that ■ can . bO' remedied with the .agencies already in the field if they want to do it real serioualy.

In March,-1942, Sigmund Rom­berg who ’brings his concert or­chestra and soloists to. the Bush- nell Memorial in Hartford on Sat­urday,. May 19, concielved the Idea of bringing his music directly to the people. I t wss his theory that America had a vast audience for music that a Syqiphony would con­sider too lowbrow and a n|odern jazz orchestra too highbrow, His ided was to present what he call- ed "Middlebrow Music,” the belov-

ted melodies of Lehar and Frlml, Strauss and Kreisler, Kern and Gershwin and, of course, ’Romberg.

It hadn’t been done since' Victor Herbert and John Phillip Sousa. The "brains” 'of show business pre- dieted it would flop. But Romberg toured yhth a 50-plece orchestra, make 277 triumphant appearances in 128 American cities, created new attendance records and played many repeat engagements.

These people wer* forced to labor long hours by thel'r Nazi masters and for slight infractions they' were placed in concentration camps. ■ •

"Likewise, the intelligentsia, col­lege professors. Army generals, bigness leaders, and professional men . of the occupied countries were, taken captive and placed in these Camps, unless they agreed to spread the doctrines advocated by the Nazis. ■

"The treatment accorded to these prisoners in the concentra­tion camps was , generally as fol­lows: They were herded together in some wooden barracks^ct large enough for one-terrtjr of their number. Thc.y wjsre forced to sleep on wrtodjur frames covered with wooden^bhards in tiers of two. three.' ajiA'cven four, sometimes witli covering, sometimes with

"Their food consisted, generally of about one-half a pound of black bread per day and a bowl of wat­ery,.soup for noon'and night, and not always that.

Notwithstanding the ttrtlberate- staiwatlon program inflicted upon these prisoners by lack of ade­quate food, we found no evidence that the people of Germany aa a whole were suffering from any lack of sufflrlent good or clothing. The contrast was so striking that the only conchisltm which wr. could reach was that the atan'ation of the Inmates of these camps was deliberate;”

determined that the inter-Ameri­can system must be preserved in­tact. But after Secretary of State Stettinius had met with ninr Latin American leaders word spread that they had, found the formula generally acceptaMe and wanted now to be. reaakured that such changes as in prospect would not mean-^any weakening of the United States good neigh­bor policy.I

T ru n ^ May .Issue Statement There was some talk that Presi­

dent Truman might issue a policy statement on that point. oit\ fall­ing that, that' a almllar declara­tion might be put out by the United States delegation here.

The formula, it' can be stated on«the highest authority, Is based on these principles:

1. Any regional organization established in good faith to settle local disputes is .considered con­sistent with the world organiza­tion, Such organizations arc the inter-American system, the British commonwealth of nations, the Arab federation.. 2. If a dispute doea not yield

to peaceful means of settlement and threatens to erupt into vio­lence; thch the world security council should take oyer, with its authority to use force.

Has Right of SClf-Defenae3. If'’the world security coub-

cll,f.itts—possibly because one of the big powers vetoes action—to atop an attack by one State on

[Other, the state attacked has of .self-defense.

4. Thg Fight of self-defense in­cludes the right of "collective de­fense.” That means, for instabBC that if one South American state ia attacked all the other American nations, including tha^. United States, may I rally to its •assist­ance. ' Such ' action is provided under, the Mexico City "Act of- ChapultCpec” in which the west­ern hemisphere agreed to stand together against any aggressor. ’ ’

, •Two.. Main CliMagbii - These principles havpT>een ex­pressed in several different amend­ments to the Dumbarton Oaks jilah ' so.'that ,,tlie, exact wording ■■'haa not yet.bfeen agreed upon. The last amendment’ was worked out Saturday by.•'Stettinius and For­eign Secretary Eden of Britain, it contains two main changes from drafts, previously written by the United States delegation:

1. It stresses the. right Of "col­lective defense” rather than mere­ly regional defense." That Is due to the fact' that while the Pan' American organization is a re­gional system, the British,, com­monwealth is not .'regfipnal but world wide. Eden wanted to be sure that the right to British na­tions to defend each other would trot be Impaired,

2. It limits the use of force by a regional or collective defense system to the time pf an actual attack on a member nation. Thus the power to (leal 'with threats of aggression by enforcement la ra; served to the world security coon cfl.

Although differing in size, they all carried into effect the same pattern of death by hard labor, starvation, hanging, strangula­tion, disease, ; brutality, gas chambers, gallows, and filthy and unsanitary . conditions, which meant Inevitable death eventually to every Inipiisoned person.

We found, in each case, that Uie supervision'''of the camps was carried out by the'crimlnal tactics of SS troops, who, iii'-addition to their owrn bnitality, assigited some Of their punitive duties to' the prisoners,, especially the habitual criminals who had. charge of The barracks' In wrhlchvall. types • of prisoners were subject to their vicious and inhuman methods.

"We found, from all the evi­dence available, that in these campe the Jews and Russians and Poles were treated with a greater, degree of severity Uuui other na- tlonalities.
