Britain Told of ‘U. S. Plot To Seize Canada.

NUERNBERG, Feb. 7 (U. P).~|

The leaders of Nazi Germany mocked the United States rearmament program in 1941 as “the greatest bluff in history.” They tried to scare Britain out of the war by warning that America planned to “inherit” the British empire, the united nations war

: orimee tribunal was told today.

A flood of documentary evidence uncovering the double dealing and

bluff to which the Nazis resorted] in a» vain effort to force peace on|’

Britain ;was submitted to the court st the opening of the individual Jrssecution case against Rudolf ess.

Hess ‘Warning’ Revealed" The prosecution presented a detailed, official account of the onetime number two Nazi's spectacular flight to Britain in May, 1941, and his warning that the United States at that moment was plotting against the British Empire. America, he said, “certainly” in-| tended to annex Canada as soon as the war had weakened Britain sufficiently. Other documents entered by the prosecution revealed: ONE: That German Foreign Min- | ister Joachim von Ribbentrop told! Benito Mussolini barely six months before the United States entered] the war that American rearmament | was history's greatest: bluff. TWO: That the late Adm. Jean! Prancois Darian, one of the ruling! triumvirate of Vichy France, con-| eluded a secret agreement with the

Nazis in 1941 for an airborne land-| ing of German troops in Iraq for |

the purpose ‘of seizing the Suez! canal and cutting Britain's life line. ‘The hitherto-secret Darlan pact | was revealed in captured records of & conference Ribbentrop held with Benito Mussolini and Count Galeazzo Cinao on May 13, 1941. Darlan pledged the Nazis that Prince would deliver arms and other war materials to Irag, set) aside landing places for the air-| borne German army and put stocks | of gasoline at the enemy's disposal | for the march on Suez U. 8. ‘Plot’ Alleged he pact also envisaged passage of German troops and arms Turkey which Ribbentrop — el was confident he could arrange. «In return for that aid Germany was to reduce the occupation levy on France from 20,000,000 to 15,-

. « 000,000 francs a day.

‘The evidence disclosed that Hess delivered a blustering statement to British government officials who questioned him on his arrival in England. Hess made a formal statement of his mission to Tvone A. Kirkpatrick, then undersecretary t foreign office, declaring ht tain's wisest course was = peace with Germany would not win the war.” Kirkpatrick said Hess knowledge of a secret American “plot” against the British empire, asserting that the United Statet’ plans, among other things, called for the annexation of Canada.

GATES OUTLINES FORESTRY PROGRAM

-Governor Gates today announced the establishment of an expanded, long range forestry program for Indiana. ‘The program, developed by State Forester Ralph F. Wilcox and Dr. E. R. Martell, of Purdue university, will increase the number of district forestry offices in the state from two to nine, The new district offices will be under the supervision of the conservation department. Office locations have not yet been established, the governor said. -. New district foresters already are attending a training school at Purdye university and next week will begin an intensive six-weeks training in the field. Most of the district offices were expected to be ready for work by May 1. . ‘The governor pointed out that establishment of the new district offices was made possible Ly an increase in the JYorestry mill tax passed by the 1945 general assembly. Despite the increased funds available, 18 central counties could not be included in the plan immediately. : It was estimated that more than 750,000 acres of Indiana land suited to tree-growing, but now idle, could be utilized under the new project.

KRAMER DOUBT WINDS MESSAG

Intercept ol Dee. Dec. 5 ‘False’ Alarm,” He Believes.

WASHINGTON, Feb..7 (U. P.).— Capt. A. D. Kramer said today he does not believe the navy depart- | ment. intercepted a message which | revealed Japan’s decision for war with the United States prior to Dec. 7, 1941. Kramer told congress’ Pearl Har-| bor investigating committee he once regarded an intercept which he s Dec. 5, 1641, as a genuine ea] code” message meaning that Japan

But, he said, he isqyconvinced now that the paper he saw on that occasion was just one of many * ‘alse The ‘winds code was set up by Japan as a means of notifying her

were to be broken with the U, 8, Britain or Russia.

Would Have Remembered Kramer also told the committee:

1. If the message he saw Dec. 5,-1041, was a real “winds execute” it referred to Great Britain, and not to the United States. 2. If he had ever seen a winds message which referred to the Unit. ed States it would have made such an’ impression that he would remember it. 3. There was absolutely no basis for interpreting any winds message as meaning war rather than a breach in diplomatic relations.

4. He “presumably” would have been the officer to distribute an authentic winds message to the high command and he Has no recollection of ever having done so.

Explains Earlier Story

Kramer explained to the congressional committee why he testifled before a navy court of inquiry at Pearl Harbor in 1944 that the winds message actually was intercepted. f He said he appeared before the navy court without any preparation and depended solely on his memory of events nearly three years earlier. He said he had in mind at the time that the so-called “winds” message he remembered seeing Dec 5 mentioned only one county. . He had in mind that the JapaneseU. 8. war started Dec. 7 and he therefore assumed that the “one country mentioned was the United States. Kramer also explained that he saw that message only about 15 or 20 seconds. He said he didn't check it to see whether the “winds” phrase was in the middle apd end of a Japanese broadcast as provided in

Hospitalized Veterans Get Assurance Against Eviction

« Merle D. Cummins, Indiana regfonal director of the veterans administration, today assured Hoosier Veterans hospitalized for non-serv-fee causes that they will not be evicted from VA facilities. Mr. Cummins made his statement after receiving a wire from Gen. Omar Bradley, veterans adistrator, asserting that charges by the American Legion that 46,000 such cases were to be dismissed were entirely false. . “No non-serfvice connected cases of any kind will be released from veterans hospitals as long as they need hospitalization,” Mr. Cummins said. “That wotld be inhuman.” “I believe I should go on record a 1 that effect because of the. unworry caused among

Meanwhile, the legion national headquarters here announced that Gen. Bradley had declined an invitation from Commander John Stelle to discuss on a national radio forum the charges that the VA is failing to meet the multipying needs of disabled veterans. This was revealed in a telegram sent to Jack Hardy, national commander of the American Veterans of World War II, which in turn rejected an offer from Mr. Hardy to meet ‘Mr, Stelle in a public debate! “Veteran unity is essential fo the continued care of the sick and dis, abled and their dependents and the receipt by the veteran of his rights: tinder the law.

PAULEY BACKED.

‘Says Nomination Will Not Be Withdrawn.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 7 (U. P.).— President Truman today gave his full support to Edwin W. Pauley, whose nomination to be undersecretary of navy has caused a heated |

Asked directly whether hel planned to withdraw Mr. Pauley’s| nomination, the President said no; {that he was backing Mr. Pauley because he believed he was an honest man and an excellent administrator. Rumors that the Pauley nomiration might be withdrawn had been heard as Republican senators—who have been’ fighting the Pauley appointment—turned their fire on another Truman nomination, that of George E. Allen as a director of the Reconstruction Finance Corp. Testimony in Senate Opposition to Mr. Pauley, California oil man and former Democratic national treasurer, has been fed by testimony at senate naval affairs committee hearings on his qualifications. Secretary of Interior Harold L. Ickes testified that Mr. Pauley, in his party role, tried ‘to persuade him to drop a federal suit for title to oil-bearing tidelands. Mr, Ickes told the committee that Pauley, in September, 1944, told him oil men would contribute $300,000 to the party treasury if the suit were dropped. Could Be Mistaken

Mr. Pauley repeatedly denied the charge. He said Mr, Ickes was confused and had misunderstood their conversation. Mr, Truman expressed a similar view; he said Mr. Ickes could well have been mistaken, Mr. Truman added under questioning that the situation would not mean any change in his relations with Mr, Ickes. The President said he was not advised in advance of the charges Mr. Ickes would make against his nominee, Honest Man ‘The President ‘went on to say that he thought Mr. Pauley was an honest mah, The President's statements scotched what had appeared to be a move in some Democratic quarters to get the Pauley nomination with drawn, Meanwhile, Republicans led by Senator ‘Robert A. Taft (R. 0), were set to challenge the nomination of Mr. Allen, jovial presidential adviser, to the powerful RFC, the country's biggest lending agency. Summoned before the senate banking committee, Allen was subjected to- close guestioning on his unofficial relationship to the White House. He denied authorship of a White House memorandum watering down
