Almost simultaneously, a United Press dispatch arrived from Madrid reporting that 'non-Spanish diplomatic cireles had heard that Hitler enplaned either for Japan, refuelling in Manchuria, or for Argentina, refueling at a secret base in West Afriea. Foreign diplomatic circles in Bern, Switzerland, said that Hitler's {eclipse should be attributed to a German desire to keep him out of the spotlight preparatory to a peace bid rather than to illness, Insanity or even replacement by Himmler. These circles said that Himmler had been given the task of malntaining order within Germany so that once peace maneuvers were under way, she would be in a position tosmegotiate on the basis that the German people were compact and orderly behind their leaders. Internal political manifestations such as a threat of prolonged partisan warfare and the formation of the Volksturm should be considered as arguments with which the Germans hope to obtain the “acceptable and honest peace” to which Propaganda Minister Paul Joseph Goebbels referred recently, Bern said.

take the first steps toward obtaining peace shortly in Lisbon, where the Italian armistice was negotiated in the summer of 1943. This belief was strengthened, Bern said, by numerous trips undertaken by German diplomatic representatives between Berlin and Lisbon. “Peace by Christmas at all costs,” was said to be Germany's aim. An Ankara dispatch last Monday sald Baron Franz von Papen, Nazi ambassador to Turkey, had been named ambassador to Lisbon, The London Daily Mail reported from Stockholm that Himmler formally appointed Hitler's successor by order of the fuehrer himself at a meeting of Nazi party leaders in Berlin two days ago. Hitler did not attend the meeting, but instead sent Dr. Hans Lammers, chief of the reichschancery, as his spokesman. Dr, Lammers was said to have read a proclamation from Hitler asserting: “I declare Heinrich Himmler deputy fuehrer and my successor.” After the appointment was approved, the dispatch said, Nazi party leaders wished Hitler “godspeed in his tremendous task, expressing the hope that he would be spared for many years to fulfill it.” The London News-Chronicle said the Berlin radio virtually had admitted that all was not well within the Reich when it quoted a speech by a Frau Scholtzklink !efore a mass meeting of Nazi party women.

/JYHROUGHOUT the entire house adequate Electric wiring means everything to the comfort, convenience and value of a home. Yet, too often when planning a new home or modernizing an old one, Electric wiring is passed over as a minor detail. But don’t let that happen to you, because inadequate wiring will be a bottleneck to

your enjoyment of the many Electrical

benefits that will follow the war. Remember there's plenty of Electricity in the transmission wires outside your home, but at the point where it enters your house it is up to your wiring system to “take over” and deliver the full supply of Electricity to every place you want to use it. To accomplish this your Electric

wiring must . . .

Provide proper service entrance, that is, large

enough wire with sufficient capacity.to carry into

your home as much Electricity as will ever be re-

quired in the future.

Provide enough circuits of large enough wire to

eliminate blown fuses, dimming of lights, slowing down of heating appliances and the inefficient operation of motor driven appliances. :

‘Provide convenient switches and enough outlets

for present and anticipated appliance and lighting needs. There should be an individual Reddybox outlet for every portable appliancé and lamp you

now own or plan to buy.
