British Foreign Minister Anthony Eden told Commons that he would make a statement about the German crisis: when he was in position to do so, but “I am sorry that I Have no information at present which extends beyond that in the of all the members.” A diplomatic correspondent of the Nazi Transocean news agency reported that “several” generals and

A special edition of the German newspaper Swoelf Uhr Blatt, in a

broadcast dispatch, said:

“This move is open hostility on! a fifth front—the head and heart of the German war command,” he said. The party organ said Hitler, “with his old steadfastness, immediately resumed his work. He knows his soldiers now will fight as never before, and will remain firm, becoming even more firm.” The press association said the American and Russian ambassadors, John G. Winant and Fedor Gusev, and Sir William Strang, the three constituting .the European: advisory council, met today to study the news from Germany. Winant also conferred with Eden. Home Secretary Herbert Morrison in a luncheon speech expressed the belief that “there is something shaky in the state of the German Reich,” but warned against think-

. Attempt to Fan Revolt

Clandestine radio stations still were attempting today to fan the flames of revolt. One, identifying itself as Radio Calais of the “Atlantic group,” broadcast a proclamation from the “German peace government” asserting that its organization “at home in Germany has inspired new hope in millions of citizens.” Another self-styled “free German broadcasting station” appealed for unity among opposition forces, said the “time has come to finish Hitler's ‘ regime” and demanded that all “brute force be repaid with brute farce, and terror by terror.” Bern and Stockholm dispatches said that “blood already had begun to flow” in the streets of German cities, and, while these appeared

Sone Progress Reported, in Replacing Fallen Tojo , Regime.

By UNITED PRESS Japan's two senior army and navy

rohito to form a new government, were reported making some progress today in replacing the fallen regime of Gen. Hideki Tojo, although no definite decisions were announced. The official Domei news agency, quoting a statement issued at “cabinet information headquarters” in Tokyo, said that Gen. Kuniaki Koiso and Adm. Hitsumasa Yonai held a conference that progressed “very smoothly and earnestly,” but had reached no decision on the formation of a new cabinet.

Meantime, it appeared that the selection of two men to form a cab- |° inet was taken to end suspicions either at home or abroad of any differences concerning the conduct of the war between the Japanese army and navy. Also, the designation of an admiral and a general tended to eliminate the necessity of obtaining army and navy approval of any tentative ministers for the new cabinet. Chungking newspapers predicted that a new Japdnese government would not be a “surrender cabinet” but would continue the war,

Imitates 1930 G. O. P. Parley

Pre-balloting strategy conferences had lasted into today’s early hours, providing a fair imitation of the famous smoke-filled room huddle at the Republican convention of 1930. The President accepted his ‘own fourth term.renomifiation last night after a routine process of afternoon balloting. The score was: Roosevelt, 1086; Senator Harry F. Byrd of Virginia, 89; James A. Farley of New York, 1. The surprised delegates learned las the President talked that his radio speech was being made from a west coast naval station. They will be more surprised to read in the papers today that the President passed through Chicago last Saturday and’ conferred with Chairman Robert E. Hannegan of the national committee,

“People Will Decide’

The President directly answered the campaign charge of Governor Thomas E. Dewey of New York, the Republican presidential ‘nominee, that he and his administration are tired and quarrelsome old men. “The people of the United States,” he told the jam-packed stadium crowd, “will decide this fall whether they wish to turn over this 1944

He sald his administration had been working on all of those projects,

But the President's voice was the only calm note around this convention. The left-right wing contestants are set for battle and have begun to slug.
