He was not only up, but he was pacing back and forth at a good 10-miles-an-hour and taking the turns in the groove. : He appeared and rubbed his spots continuously against the bars of the cage in an effort, apparently, to reshuffle them. These animals are the white collar €lass of the menagerie. The working @nimals are the elephants, of course, and owing to .the defense effort this year they really have more work to do. .!

wished it would have. This was quite a blow. 2 3 But the animals were fed on schedule. And guess the diet of the great and snarling Gargantua who travels, through palace politics, in an air-condtiioned compartment!

Knox Is Belligerent

The word “war” is appearing from time to ‘ime now in official and public utterances of American officials. Navy Secretary - Frank Knox in Montreal last night addressed a, Canadian Victory Loan drive audience, explaining that he felt a sense of humility in facing the fighting people of Canada. “Along this path of defiance to those whn- seek military dominion over us,” he said, “you have gone further than have we. We are determined to travel the same route.” Col. Knox’ speech was written

‘and distributed for subsequent re-

lease a couple of days before yesterday’s order for the closure cf German consulates and agencies. The German Embassy was not affected by the order, but the dismantling of Nazi consular and other agencies in this country will be under Embassy direction. The Germans have until July 10 to close the offices and remove German nationals in their employ from American territory. .

No Chdrges Made Public

No details of the charges against the various German agencies has been made public, although Col. Knox told press conferees yesterday that: “Fifth column activity in the United States has been found to center around the official representatives of the German Government.” The general charge made for-| mally by the State Department was that. the offices and individuals involved had engaged in activities “of an improper and unwarranted character” ang that their continued presence here would be “inimical to the welfare of this country.” But all questions as to details were re-

ferred to the Justice Department where officials remained silent.

Stubborn resistance _ by troops loyal to Vichy continued to balk realization of thé British objectives in Syria. The Allied columns were outside Damascus, and were not far from Beiut and were apparently approaching the important Rayak airdrome and the northern center of Aleppo. But the French, who yesterday allowed the British to take coastal Saida - (Sidon), without a fight, counter-attacked today along the entire front, recapturing Merdjayoun and taking prisoners in the Kuneitra area.* o

Luftwaffe Stays at Home

For the sixth night running the Royal Air Force carried out heavy offensive bombing of the big German industrial areas in the Ruhr and of the bases along the Germanheld - French coast, particularly in the Calais-Boulogné area. The Germans admitted the'scope of the British operations in reporting nine British planes shot down.
