Conference Of Big Three May Bring Surrender Demand Secretary of War Visits Air Base London, Nov. 29. A declaration f epochal importance involving a po-si-ble demand for Germany's surrerder and signed by President Ron.-cvolt, Prime Minister Churchill and rrcn.ier Stalin in the first meeting of the ' big three" is expected on the basis or foreign reports to be announced per haps within a few days. It is speculated from reports fr m abroad that such a document, in terms more precise than the Atlantic Char ter, certainly would state the pence principles for application to Germany and her satellites. Although there is no confirmation, reports from abroad have persisted that Generalissimo Chiang Kai-Shel; has joined in the greatest conference yet on the war and peace strategy of the United Nations, but it is believed that if he did so he probably partici pated mainly in talks apart from those attended by the Russians, who are not fighting Japan. There were reports, too, that Presi dent Eduard Benes of the Czechoslo vak government-in-exile was attend ing this conference. Henry M. Slimsim, Secretary of War. spent a few hours at the Laurinburg-Maxton Air Base tiiis week on a tour of Inspection and observation of the Airborne Infantry and Army Air Forces taetics. This was the first visil of the secretary to this base, and special exercises were arranged for the occasion. He was the guest of Commander V. A. Pitts, He also paid a visit to Camp Mackall. -O- All that is necessary to get grade A price for one's eggs is to clean any dirty or stained ones and do some easy candling tj remove the eggs with blood spots, says T.
