BAN POLICE GAZETTE FROM USING MAILS

WASHINGTON, Set. 21 (U. P.).— The National Police Gazette, famous since the gay nineties when handlebar mustaches and. bowler hats were in vogue, has been banned from the mails for publishing “lewd and lascivious” material, the postoffice department has announced. ; Officials said the action resulfed from failure of the Gazette’s publisher to show cause, as ordered Aug. 19, why the magazine should not be denied its second-class mail-

2. The house agriculture committee expressed hope in a state-

ment that the president would in-

clude farm labor costs in calculating parity, ‘but made . no outright demand for such a provision in the pending bill. 3. The National Lawyers guild denounced proposals: to revise parity, charging that such a change would “release torréntial flows over the anti-inflation dam that would very seriously jeopardize the nations fight against inflation.” 4. The Congress of Industrial Or-

ganizations, asserting that increased

prices had cost the American people $9,000,000,000 since Jan. 1, charged that the “principal rise has been in uncontrolled farm prices, Which: have gone well above parity.” The senate and house versions of the bill are almost identical.

In the present “wave” reported from London there is no apparent. evidence of conceited activity as there was in outbreaks shortly after Germany invaded Russia {which were obviously the result of orders from Moscow. Many of the communits leaders were - executed at that time and their ynderground groups broken up by secret police. At least some of the inspiration of the current disturbances, however, must be credited to the Russians if only to. their holding at Stalingrad.

Word Spreads Rapidly

As a matter of fact, activity in occupied . countries often reflects sensitively the turn of events elsewhere about whieh the populations learn quickly and fully, despite German efforts to prevent it. They learn by radio-and by printed matter smuggled across the frontiers. Circulations of news by word of mouth is unbelievably rapid. In every one of Hitler's occupied countries ‘there are patriotic organizations, however small, however repressed, devoted to the expression of open hatred and resistance of the Nazi occupiers. Sometimes foreign ‘propagandists have served them badly, if unintentionally, by encouraging their activities at specific places or plants. Such en-

Resentment Slow but Sure

It usually takes time for the resentment of occupied countries to express itself violently or openly. I have seen this slow smioldering in Denmark, Holland, Belgium, France, Czechoslovakia and Poland, The final result is always the same and a desperate and angry people begin ‘killing sentries on street corners, planting explosive charges. Hostages are taken and executed. There are new killings, new executions, in a vicious circle. The whole system. dooms Hitler's dream of any “neuordnung” in Europe. There is not a country today which is spontaneously cooperating with Hitler or where the people believe in his aims any longer, not even in Italy, Hungary, Rumania, or Bulgaria, his allies. But there is little they can do, for the police power is too great. Meanwhile thosé sporadic outbursts we read about are like nothing so much as little spurts of flame licking out of the crevices in a hot volcanic earth,

For instance, there is the matter of customer approach. “May I help (or serve) you?” is just third rate in the list of approaches for its effectiveness. : Topping the list is one which ties up the merchandise with the customer. For example, if the customer is looking at a blouse, the best technique would be to say “That one would go nice with the suit you have on” or something similar. The second best approach is

There was no debate on the proposal and the only opposition came from the Ilinois delegation.

Rap Handling of Japs

The Legionnaires criticized handling of Japanese in this country and resolved that no “special privileges be granted Japanese, that they be denied ‘the privilege of leaving internment camps under any pretext ‘and that control over the camps be returned to the military authotities.” The camps weré placed under ‘eivil-] ian boards last June.’ ! Another resolution condemned friction among war leaders and workers. “Misfits and incompetents must be dismissed wherever found, ?. the resolution said. ; Only one resolution went to a roll call vote and that one, a proposal| that Legionnaires now in the armed forces should be exempt from pay-

ing national dues, was defeated.

MOSCOW, Sept, 21 (U. P)~— Wendell L. Willkie,’ here on a pere sonal mission for President Roose= velt, conferred today with Foreign

|Comissar Viacheslav Molotov after

announcing that he favoréd opening a second front “if military people consider it feasible.” 4 ‘Mr, Willkie was expected to are range with Molotov a meeting with Premier Josef Stalin so he could present a personal letter from Presi. dent Roosevelt. He conferred with Sir Archibald Clarke Kerr, British ambassador, who was among those awaiting. at the Moscow airport on his arrival from Kuibyshev yesterday. Earlier, Mr. Willkie went on a sightseeing tour. He said he was astonished by the lack of evidence of German bombing.

Russ Want More Aid

“The second front has become a .symbol of the kind of aid Ruse sians expect frong thé United States and Great Britain,” Mr... Willkie said on his arrival here as the dresident’s special envoy. “Russians appreciate the help they are receiving but they do not consider it adequate. They ‘think: they are carrying the brunt of a fight which is as important to the United States as to them and they are almost prayerfully anxious for more aid. “The moral value of a second front would be enormous.” Replying to a question, he added: “The Stalingrad front is as much a British and American front as it is a Russian front because this war is a global one.” Mr, Willkie added that the Egyptian front, whith he toured on his way here, also was an allied front, not merely a British front, All fronts were intertwined, he said, and no nation could survive the war alone.

Finds Morale High

On the basis of a two-and-ae half-day visit to Kuibyshev, which since the opening of the German offensive on Moscow a year ago has been the headquarters of the diplomatic corps and some government agencies, Mr. Willkie said at a press conference: “I could not find any sign or any indication that the spirit of resistance is weakening in Russia. “I found universal devotion to the homeland. It is insipring.” He said the Russian government gave him a free hand to visit face tories and farms and to interview workers and farmers with his own interpreter. He said he had tried to discover any symptom of slacke ening or morale. He talked to worke ers and farmers, whom he picked himself, he said, #nd could find ne sign of slackening. During all his talk with Russians, Mr. Willkie said; - he found that among all categories — managers, workers and: farmers—the second front had become the symbol of the aid Russia expected. 'He said he intended to report on . what he learns to the American
