THAILAND'S KING IN SWISS HAVEN!

Ananda, 15, Skates to His School and Putters in Carpenter Shop.

By GEORGE KIDD United Press Staff Correspondent LAUSANNE, Switzerland, March 11.—Young King Ananda of Thailand skated to school and puftered in his carpenter shop today, apparently unconcerned that his country had been spared a war with French Indo-China.

Born in 1925 in Heidelberg as Prince Somdech Phra Chao Yu Hua Ananda Mahidol, the King succeeded his uncle, Prajadhipok.

When Ananda became King the Royal Family moved to the villa, “Vadhana” (Welcome), near the Boulevard des Chamblandes With him are his mother, his 18-year-old sister Galyani, his 13-year-old brother Pumipol and a secretary, M. Supabodock. ; The family’s Chamberlain, Lieut. Gen. Vijtvonja, Thailand’s former Minister to Washington, has an apartment near the skating rink of Montchoisi, where from his window he can see his youthful sovereign playing with his schoolmates. Ananda has a Greek tuter. At school he is considered a good student, but his one scholastic weakness is compoistion. Given a subject to expound it is said that he seldom ‘succeeds in writing more than a dozen lines. The King is good at mountain sports and has several ascents of well known peaks ‘to his credit. Wood-working is his favorite indoor hobby. He made a complete set of furniture for. his tutor in the carpenter shop at his home.

Gas War Opens —On Rabbits

LONDON, March 11 (U. P.).— Ruthless gas war already has begun in Britain, but it’s not what you think it is. It is being waged by the British on millions of rabbits, which are costing the British between $120,000,000 and $160,000,000 a year in foodstuffs that might be going for human consumption. “A rabbit will eat as much as a sheep,” it was explained. “They devour young corn and other green foods. Even before crops begin to appear, rabbits sabotage - food production by the way they treat the land.” Ferrets and traps having failed to eliminate the rabbits, the British have turned to gas to do the job.

AXIS STRIVING

T0 WOO ARABS

Propaganda Tempo Stepped Up as Germans Draw Closer to Aegean.

By HELEN KIRKPATRICK CO a Er Dana eabally mimes LONDON, March 11.—A tremendous German drive to enlist the Arab world on the side of the Axis has been revealed to the British public today in a similar report, appearing in several newspapers, from Cairo. As German troops approach nearer and nearer to the Aegean and the Near East, German propaganda in the near and Middle-Eastern countries has increased its tempo in preparations for taking over those countries and their valuable oil supplies, much as the Germaus took over Rumania. Teheran Center of Attack

While Iran and Irak, both with very large supplies of oil which would more than satisfy both German and Italian needs, are thé principal targets for German propaganda, Saudi Arabia, Syria and even Egypt are being subjected to highpowered propaganda. Iran’s capital, Teheran, is the center of a propaganda organization which is spreading rumors, making promises and generally trying to stir up trouble for the British throughout that area. The Germans are very cleverly capitalizing on the Arabs’ desire to rid those countries of Jews. The Jews will be driven out of Palestine and the French from Syria so that the Arabs may unite in a large Arab state, the Germans are telling everyone. “Are the British giving you, Arabs, the Moslem territories they have captured from the Italians?” the Germans are asking the Arabs. Even Egypt Impressed Even pro-British Egyptians are saying that the German promises are very attractive to the Arabs when there has been no indication from Great Britain as to what she proposed doing in the way of an Arab settlement after the war. At Teheran the Germans have succeeded in wooing the principal members of the government, apparently including the Shah himself. And Iran, although not an Arab country, is Moslem and therefore interested in what will happen to its fellow Moslems. British correspondents who reveal the extent of German activities, say that Arabs everywhere listen to broadcasts from Berlin by Iraqi Bahr, who originally offered his services to the Birtish but was turned down. Arabs listen to him because he is “bawdy, funny and exciting,” while the British broadcasts in_Arabic are dull, proper and refined. Spells Trouble for Britain While no doubt is cast on the loyalty of Saudi Arabia to the British cause, it is noted that Ibn Saud’s closest adviser is the mysterious El Korkani, who had a long talk with Adolf Hitler two years ago and who since has not indicated where he stands. Should the Germans succeed in breaking through to the Aegean and subsequently attack Turkey. their propaganda in the Near East may bear pretty unpleasant fruit for the British in that part of the world. The British would be hard put to it to make promises to the Arabs as lavish as the Germans are making with their inevitable conclusions for the Jews in Palestine. To their credit, it must be said that the British have resisted the temptation to repeat the offers which were made to the Arabs in the last war by Sir Henry MacMahaon, British plenipotentiary, although they have long recognized the importance of Arab support in the oil fields of the Near East are to

BRITISH HEALTH IS GOOD, PARRAN SAYS

JERSEY CITY, N. J. March 11 (U. P.)—Dr. Thomas A. Parran, Surgeon General of the United States, reported on his return from Europe aborad the American Export Liner Excalibur that the British are enjoying “unusually good health.” Desipte the war and the dislocations caused by German bombs, he said yesterday there are no epidemics in Britain and fewer cases of influanza than in the United States. Dr. Parran, who with three others, went to Great Britain to study civil defense, found bomb shelter provisions in London “very good,” adding that “the basic sanitary condition in London is also very good.” But there is a shortage of doctors and nurses, he continued, and volunteers from the United States would be welcomed. The shortage arose from the fact that medical men are serving with the army and navy, Dr. Parran said. There has been no medical neglect thus far, but added that Britain “must prepare for the invasion.”
