* PROBABLE U.S. ROLE IN CASE OF

“PEACE STUDIED!

Diplomats Feel Aid Given|

. Britain Means Place at Table if Axis Loses.

|| WASHINGTON, Jan, 7 (U. P.).— President Roosevelt’s long range peace objectives, as set forth in his message to Congress, aroused diplomatic interest today because of the probable role of the United States in any peace based on an Axis de-

feat. : || Open: and effective aid to the

democracies was. expected to assure}; for this country an important place: at any peace negotiations on such a |: basis and Mr. Roosevelt—in predict-|: g a future of freedom of worship] nd_speech, and freedom from want].

gnd fear—made clear that he expects to use it. {| The fact that the United States is not at war prevented diplomatic observers from classifying Mr. Roosevelt's hopes as “war objec tives.” But they regarded them as important indications of what return the United States expects for its help from the post-war world.

. War Objectives Studied

|| Overshadowed by the more dramatic “aid to democracies” portion f his message, these post-war objectives of Mr. Roosevelt, nevertheless, were receiving close study by diplomats here: [| “Freedom of speech and expres-| sion—everywhere in the world. {| “Freedom of every person to worship God in his own way. || “Freedom from want—which translated into world terms, means ecomomic understandings which will secure to every nation a healthy - [peace-time life for its inhabitants— everywhere in the world. || “Freedom from fear—which, ltranslated into world terms, means|o a world-wide reduction of arma-y ments to such a point and in such a ‘thorough fashion that no nation will be in a position to commit an act of physical aggression against lany neighbor—anywhere in the ‘world. » ’ Part of Hull Program

| The diplomatic observers saw in these points some resemblance to ‘those frequently enunciated during {the World War. They were set forth by Secretary of State Cordell Hull when he announced the crea|tion of a committee, headed by Undersecretary Sumner Welles, last {January to study peace problems. Mr, Hull proposed that that comir, consider steps which would [assist in the readjustment of the {economic machine to peacetime needs after the war and thereafter work for free interchange of goods.

CITY'S BUDGET GETS APPROVAL

State 0. K.s Expe s Expenditure 8 Million After Cut of $12,000.

Approved by the State Tax Board with a reduction of nearly $12,000 the Civil City’s 1941 budget became operative today. It calls for an 000,000 expenditure this year, financed by a tax levy of $1.16 City Controller James E. Deery was notified yesterday of tlie Tax Board's approval. The Boar: made arbitrary cuts totaling $11,654, Almost half this amourt was slashed from salary increases pro-

largest single cut was a $6000 ite which was to finance publication a new codification of the Municipal Code. The code has not been published since 1925.

Increases Refused

In the Controller’s office, salary increases totaling $1236 were 2rased; $2258 was cut from increases for assistant City attorneys and $1560 for an additional draftsman in the City Plan Commission was cut! along with a $600 item for a stenographer in the Purchasing Agency. Tax Board action on the City budget was delayed from last fall as a result of the City's $300,000 bookkeeping deficit. The deficit, growing out of a budget error, was discovered when the County Tax Adjustment Board began to review the budget.

Prepare for Loan

Tax Commissioners and! City officials proposed delaying [firigl approval of the budget until the City could see its way clear toward mak-

the court to withhold sentence to] | allow Alfeld to return to military || Jurisdiction.

OF PROPAGANDA

Friends and Foes of F. D: R. Foreign Policy Call for Investigations.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 7 (U. P).— Friends and foes of President

dicated they may be racing for control of an investigation of propaganda, pressure groups and other influences affecting Américan neutrality and defense progress. Senator Harry S. Truman (D. Mo.) asked for $100,000 to investigate foreign and domestic interests retarding the defense program. His colleague, Senator ‘Bennett C. Clark (D. Mo.) sought $50,000 for’ a special investigation of the acts “of any person, firm, committee, or corporation—acting for of on behalf or in the interests of any foreign nation, by way of propaganda or otherwise—having as their ultimate goal or tending to cause, directly or indirectly, the influencing of the neutral position of the United States in the conflicts now waged abroad.” Senator Josh Lee (D., Okla.) is preparing a resolution asking $50,000 to investigate “pressure groups” such as the No Foreign Wars Committee, headed by Iowa Editor Verne Marshal, and the William Allen White Committee to Defend America by Aiding the Allies. The money provided for in Mr. Truman's resolution would go to an Interstate Commerce subcommittee headed by Senator Burton K. Wheeler (D. Mont.). Mr, Wheeler's committee already has announced that William R. Davis, international oil operator. will be questioned at his own request. Mr. Davis recently was named by Mr. Marshal as the bearer of a German peace proposal handed to the State Department soon after the European war began

Mr. Mason

Indeed, the Tobruk operations will be easier if Marshal Graziani shows reluctance to concentrate much of his depleted strength at that port. The handicap of lost mechanized units -is especially serious for Graziani’s retreating forces. In his remarkably frank report about the early phases of the present operations made public in Italy on Dec. 22, Graziani said hé had lacked only

motorized vehicles to start his offen-|

War Moves Today

By J. W. T. MASON United Press War Expert British estimates that Italian casualties in the present North African campaign total 94,000, coupled with the great quantify of weapons and stores captured, indicate that the backbone of Italy's Libyan Army has been broken beyond repair. British casualties, placed at approximately 2000, further show that the Imperial fighting force retains all its original driving power, heavily augmented by the abandoned Italian supplies. With British ships operating along the Libyan Coast able to act as floating supply bases, it would seem probable that the offensive against Tobiuk offers a problem no more difficult than the attack on Bardia.

sive in Egypt, which the British anticipated by their own offensive drive. The successive captures of motor units by the British at Sidi Barrani and Bardia must have reduced Graziani’'s small total to a tragic modicum. The British now should have overwhelming superiority in this essential arm of modern warfare. It would seem hopeless, therefore,

Without : mechanized ecuipment their infantry might well be subjected to massacre if they sought to engage the British, so well protected by mechanical vehicles, The mass capitulations of the Italians since ‘the start of the British. push may be partly exe plained by the supremacy of British mechanized weapons, When that situation happens in modern fighting, the hapless enemy, bereft of mechanized support, and inferior in the air, has little choice, Within a reasonable time, Tobruk should be taken by the British, and if the Italians escape, their way of retreat may have to be southweste ward through the desert instead of along the coastal road. The British Mediterranean fleet may be able to command the coastal route. If that happens, the lack of mechanized transport through the desert for the Italians will give the British an opportunity to cut them off, probably compelling still more surrenders.
