GROCERS WANT NO âSPONSORSâ Association Resolution De mands Merchants Be Trusted On Prices CHICAGO, June 10.â UP) âThe National Association of Retail Gro cers, serving notice that it did not want âan army of snoopersâ in American stores, asked the govern ment today to trust retail mer chants with enforcement of the re strictions on food prices. The organization adopted a res olution calling upon Congress to refuse the office of Price Admin istrationâs request for funds which it claimed would be used âto add more than 100,000 new employesâ largely enforcement personnelâto the OPA payroll. * âIt is implied in this proposal,â the resolution said, âto turn loose an army of âsnoopersâ on the re tail merchants of the United States These men and women proposed or OUA enforcement personnel can render more useful service in the prosecution of the war against the Axis powers, rather than as an army of harassment operating at public expense on the home front.â The resolution said that the sin cere efforts of this industry to po lice itself will be supplemented by the vigilance of millions of con sumers.â Harry Walker, secretary of the Maryland retail grocers organiza tion, who led supporters, told the convention he was convinced that Washington was ââthe only insane asylum that is run oy its own in mates.â Before the debate, A. C. Hoff man, OPAâs price executive in the food and food products section, told the grocers: ââIf this regulation doesnât hold, then frankly gentlemen, weâre whipped on the economic frontâ and this war will end as all other wars have ended, and I donât think you gentlemen will have enough money to hold another conven tion.â 3 SMALL~BUSINESS MAY GET RELIEF (Continued From Pape One) is creation of a government agen cy to: "Defray, during the period of en forced shutdown, the minimum fixed charges and maintenance costs of those plants which have been or will be closed. "Make loans at favorable inter est rates to those plants which, although not completely closed down as a result of war produc tion orders, are unable to operate at a profitable level. âMake loans, up to the fair value of frozen inventories, to those plants which have not un reasonable inventories of fully or semi-fabricated parts that cannot be finished and assembled into completed products without addi tional amounts of critical raw ma terials, and which are in need of and unable to obtain financial as sistance. Reed said the closing of approx imately 24,000 plants, whose sales in 1939 amounted to $4,000,000,000, is estimated by the Bureau of In dustry branches. This is 13 per cent of the 184,000 manufacturing establishments. He bases his es timate of $200,000,000 annual gov ernment payments to the plants on a covering of fixed charges averaging five per cent of their business. MID-WESTMAYGET GASOLINE RATIONS (Continued from Page One) ceilings fixed on petroleum pro ducts by the office of price admin istration. Because of these ceilings, he said producers were unable to offset the higher cost of shipping by rail and were losing heavily on ship ments into the northeast. This, he contended, had a tendency to dis courage shipments into the area â -V NO JURY CASES SOUTHPORT, June 10. â This weekâs session of the Recorder's court tvas marked by the absence of requests from defendants for jury trial, such actions automatically sending their cases to Superior court.

AXIS FORCES HIT AT BIR HACHE1M (Continued From Page One) made a gap in the British mine field west of Knigntsbridge. Now an artillery duel is the main en gagement. Here before Bir Hacheim two Messerschmitts e q u i p p ed for bombing dropped two anti-person nel bombs without effect. At another place in the desert I came across two dead giantsâ the âGeneral Grant" tanks sup plied by the United States. Each must have taken a half doz en direct hits at fairiv close range. They bore only small dents where some shells had bounced off. but in each case a shell from a German 88 gun had penetrated their side to explode and kill the crews. American observers are examin ing every damaged tank to learn what they can. 3 THREE MORE SHIPS SUNK IN ATLANTIC (Continued From Pafe One) he said. âThe sub was maybe 200 feet away â so I changed my mind.â The attack occurred at 4 p. m. and the vessel went down in flames half an hour later after a shot hit the engine room. The second dragger heard the sounds of shooting and headed to wards them, only to be intercepted by the submarine. Both crews rowed to land with out food. One crew of eight men had half a gallon of water, the oth er crew of six had ten gallons. The latter part of the trip was made in dense fog. MERCHANTMAN SUNK The destruction of three more Allied vessels by Axis submrines in the Atlantic swelled United and neutral nationsâ officially reported ship losses in that area since Pearl Harbor to a total of 258 craft. The rescue of all 85 members of the crews of the latest U-bdat vic timsâa medium-sized British mer. chantman and two small United States fishing vesselsâwas disclos ed by the Navy yesterday (Wednesday.) Seventy-one crewmen and pas sengers survived the submarine at tack on the British cargo carrier June 2, when two torpedoes smash ed into the vessel and sank her in threfe minutes. The 12 passengers aboard were field service workers among them four Americans who arrived safely at an Atlantic port in a damaged lifeboat. The two American fishing boats were attacked within an hour of each other by a lone submarine June 3. From 50 to 70 shells were fried by the U-boat before the two ships were sunk. Both crews of 14 men arrived safely on the New England coast after rowing 65 miles in four dories. Announcement Tuesday of th e submarine . sinking of a United States merchant ship off the coast of the Pacific northwest boosted to eight the number of American car go carriers sunk by enemy under sea craft between Hawaii and Cal ifornia since the outbreak of s tilities over six months ago.

Today an d Tomorrow _ BY WALTER LIPPMANN - Policy Made Clearer And Stronger DURING this weekâs great mili tary actions which have extended from Cologne to Midway, we have made a diplomatic move w h i ch may have seemed perfunctory and of litttle practical interest. Six months after Bulgaria, Hungary, and Rumania declared war upon us, we have recognized that we are at war with them.. Yet our action is much more important than at first it may seem. It is important because it demonstrates that in his Memorial Day speech Mr. Welles was not making Utopian promises for the distant future but was announcing a policy which is very seriously meant. * * * What difference does it make whether we are or are not at war with these three states? It means primarily that not only for the war but for the period of the armistice and for the peace settlement which will follow we are now the allies of Greece and of Yugoslavia. Their enemies are now our enemies, and the words âUnited Nationsâ have very d e finite practical con sequences. r or, as tne state uepartmem nas announced through the Welles speech, we intend with the other victorious nations to disarm the na tions which âmay threaten aggres sion outside of their frontiersâ; we intend to police the Armistice; and we mean to regard the United Na tionsâ as the nucleus of a world or ganizationâ to determine the final terms of peace. The declarations of war with ,the three small Axis satellites followed immediately after Mr. Welles had announced this American policy. Therefore, Greece and Yugoslavia are now assured that their position at the Armistice will be quite dif ferent from that of their neighbors who have gone with Hitler. Greec e and Yugoslavia will take part in enforcing the Armistice, and they will belong to the original nucleus of the world organization which will write the peace. Hungary, Bul garia and Rumania will be dis armed to the degree deemed nec essary to prohibit any renewal of aggression on their part, and they will have to prove that they can be trusted in a world of free na tions. * * ÂŤ Thus we have adopted the prin ciple that the nations which fight our enemies are the nations we must work with from now on. We have tried the opposite principle; we have wished to believe that if we dealt with Hitler, his dupes and his Quislings did not matter. Hitler is still obviously the great enemy in Europe. But the dupes and the Quislings are an essential part of his power, and there is an immense practical difference now and for the future between nations like the Greeks and the Yugoslavs who have staked every thing to resist him and nations like Bulgaria, Hungary and Ru mania which work with him. The Greeks and the Yugoslavs have fought for freedom. The oth ers have not. Can there be any doubt that the Greeks and the Yugoslavs can, therefore, be re lied upon more surely in the cause of freedom? Can there be anyr doubt that the others cannot be relied upon until they have proved by what they do to liberate them selves from Hitler and to purge themselves internally that they can be relied upon? Is this not sound sense? If we cannot make peace with Hitler and Mussolini, how can we make peace with their agents? * * * We come, thereby, to the tragic case of Finland, and we are bound to be governed by the fact that the Finnish government is in a position to strike a blow which, if it is suc essful might prolong the war in definitely and make it extremely difficult for us to defeat Japan and Germany. The Finns are on the flank of our main supply line to Russia. If they do anything to cut that line, they will do us the gravest injury in the Pacific as well as in the European theater of the war. We should in sheer self-defense have to regard aijy action of this kind by Finland as an act of war against the United States, and there ought to be no doubt as to the consequences. If Finland goes to war with the United States she will fall into the same class as Hungary, Bulgaria and Rumania when it comes to the Armistice and to the making of the peacÂŤ. She will have struck Aich a deadly blow at Russia, and through Rus sia at us, that it will be imp )s sible for us to argue that Finland must not also be disarmed and demilitarized. We cannot, there fore. afford to let the Finnish peo ple have the illusion that no mat ter what they allow their govern ment to do to us, they can count on our protection. They cannot count on it if by their deeds they put us in a position where count less Americans, Russians, Britons, Chinese must die because t h ey have yielded to Hitler. The dilem ma of the Finns is tragic and it is hard. But the cause of free dom in the world is paramount * * * The United Nations are a grand alliance which has come into being not by virtue of a blueprint, but in the fries of war. The alliance was not formed as a diplomatic comb' nation. It consists of the nations which, when attacked, chose to re sist rather than to surrender. The common cause rests, therefore, not upon the plans or pledges of stateÂŽ men but on the vital interest of each people. That is why this alli ance must grow firmer and closer as th war moves toward its dis tant climax. This is now the officially de clared American policy. We can take pride and comfort in the ac cumulating evidence that the Pre ident and the State Department are coming by considered steps to so firm a program of action in the execution of this policy. -V FDR WELCOMES GREECE'S KING (Continued From Page One) George T. Summerlin, chief of Pro tocol in the State Department. The President greeted the king with a typical American âHello" After a welcome from Mrs. Roose velt the king stood between her and the President as the latter presented the American officials. The band played the Greek na tional anthem and the Star Spangl ed Banner. Although not part of the official reception a Greek-American in stitution, Steve Vasilakos, 60, gray haired peanut vender just outside the White House grounds since 1910 was doing his bit. Now a natural ized citizen, he had the American flag on one corner of his stand and the Greek on the other. He was so excited he had trouble with his English and had to call on a by-stander who could under stand Greek to relate that he had a son who was a policeman ri Athens and another with the Greek armed forces. He hasnât heard from either in some time. -V JAPS PUSH BEYOND CITY OF CHUHSIEN (Continued From PAge One) southwest but meeting with bitter Chinese resistance. . Fierce fighting was reported in other Kiangsi areas, nearly all the northern part of the province hav ing become a battlefield. Chinese operating in the rear of the Jap anese were said to have pushed to within 12 miles of their Nancoang base on the west, while the southeast of Nanchang Japanese attempts to land on the east shore of Lake Poyang were reported stopped. The communique said the Jap anese were using six âcruisersâ and more than 30 launches in this operation. (Lake Poyang can be entered from the Yangtze river by small war vessels, possibly de stroyers, but it is unlikely trfat real, cruisers could have reached it) -V Draft For Foreign Duty Not Now Necessary Says Canadian Prime Minister OTTAWA, June 10.â (jp) _ Prime Minister MacKenzie King told Parliament today that the Canadian government ⢠does not believe conscription for service overseas is neces sary new, and he added that âmoreover, it may never be come necessary.â The Prime Minister made this statement in opening de bate on the conscription bill, which would leave the govern ment free to conscript men by proclamation for service in any theater of war.

The storekeeper, who for more than 30 years lived here under the name of Louis Bakane, has waived extradition and will be taken to Batvi, N. Y., this weekend, Sgt. H. L. Debrine, of the New York state police bureau of criminal in vestigation, said. Debrine said the storekeeper ad mitted being in Belfast, N.

Their departure left in Ashe ville 23 others who have applied for permission to remain in this country. The enemy alien board yesterday completed hearings on their applications. Despite secrecy about the de parture of the 119 today a crowd 1 had gathered when the aliens, ac-! companied by a large number of immigration service officers and city, state and Federal law en forcement officers, arrived ah the train. NAZIS DESTROY CZECH VILLAGE T - (Continued From Ps(0 One) persons today, killed all the men and deporting the women and chil dren, on the ground that the popu lation harbored the two assassins of Reinhard Heydrich, the late German ruler of Bohemia-Moravia. Completing this most savage single act of repression in the his tory of German occupation of con tinental Europe, Gestapo and Ger man soldiery razed the village, leaving nothing but rubble, the German-controlled radio announced from Prague. Lidice isâor wasâa village of coal-miners and woodworkers a few miles west of the Czech capital and not far from where Heydrich "the hangmanâ was fatally wound ed by two patriots while driving along a winding road two weeks ago. The assassins, who leaped upon Heydrichâs car with automatic pis tol and bomb, have not been caught. Shortly after Prague and Berlin radios had announced the fate of Lidice "as the hiding place of the Heydrich murders,â German au thorities in Prague disclosed that 25 more Czechs had been executed today in the capital and 6 in Brunn for a total of 306âexclusive of the Lidice headâto be slain since the attack on Heydrich. In London, authorities of the Al lied and exiled governments of the continent estimated that 500,000 persons had been shot or hanged. In all Europe since the beginning of the German conquest. Only yesterday during Heyrichâs elaborate funeral rites in Berlin, Gestapo Chief Heinrich Himmler vowed complete revenge on his killers. The. slaughter of Lidice was his Macabre sequel. The Prague broadcasts did not give the number of men of the village who were shot. It said the women had been sent to a con centration camp and the children to âeducational centers.â Then the Nazis removed the name of the village from their records. Besides being accused of hiding Heydrichâs slayers, the population of the village was accused in the broadcast of having âcommitted other hostile acts such as keeping an illegal dump of ammunition and arms and maintaining an illegal transmitter.â Before this had happened, the Germans had executed 275 Czechs for the assassination of Heydrich, and it was apparent from German advices received today in Switzer land that a new wave of punitive measures is on the way, not only in Czechoslovakia but in other oc cupied countries. 500,000 SLAUGHTERED LONDON, June 10.âThe Allied, exiled governments of continental Europe estimated today that the Germans have shot or hanged nearly 500,000 persons in their ef fort to beat down the sullen, re sentful millions on occupied soil. A new wave of punitive mea sures is believed on the way throughout all these countries as the result of the assassination of Reinhard Heydrich, âprotectorâ of Bohemia-Moravia, for whose death at least 275 Czechs already have died within two weeks. Prague, Paris, Amsterdam, all Poland and Yugoslavia probably will be the first to feel the chill of this new terror campaign, it was indicated in German advices reaching Bern. Of the half-million Europeans al ready believed dead by the hand of the Nazi executioner, approximate ly five per cent were wiped out in mass âreprisalâ killings of hos tages. The remainder, including many women, were executed on various charges, such as sabotage, plotting and aiding the enemy. The Norwegian, Belgian and Netherlands governments and the Free French committee here said the increased tempo of executions in the past few weeks indicated resistance to the Germans' was in creasing in direct ratio to the shootings. The governments, in estimating the number killed, did not consider âthe countless thousands who have died in concentration camps or from ill treatment and hunger as a result of the ânewr orderâ.â The Yugoslav government esti mated 350,000 killed in Yugoslavia alone and the Polish government said 90,000 Poles had been execut ed. They attributed the stupendous totals to German massacres of âen tire villages in attempts to wipe out guerrilla activity.â Incomplete totals picked up from German broadcasts tell a grim story of their own, with the best compilations showing nearly 7,000 shootings and hangings reported by the Germans themselves. A majority of the executions were never broadcast. Some were published in local papers which never reached London. One Czech oslovak official said: âA vast num ber of those killed was never made public at all, but we hear of them eventually via underground routes For example, last November the Germans said nine students were executed as a result of riots in Prague, but we know of 120 wrho were killed.â In Norway, Belgium, the Nether lands and Czechoslovakia and late ly in France the list of those shot reveals the Gestapo is following a definite pattern of wiping out âin tellectualâ leaders. ___ Give Your Feet An Ice-Mint Treat Get Happy, Cooling Relief For Burning CallousesâPut Spring in Your Step rJ???1* groaâ about tired, burning feet.

BRITISH RULER VISITS FLEET (Continued From Page One) bombers on a convoy in the Arctic sea lane to Russia. An officer who was on the Edin burgh was quoted as saying the first indication the British' had that the American force actually was near came when a United States navy plane flew over the British cruiser. âThe weather then was so bad that we were very surprised that any naval aircraft should be fly ing,â he said. To the Edinburgh the American fleet force signaled: âWe are more than glad to serve with the home fleet and are bend ing every effort to take our proper place in the battle line of that ex perienced and gallant fighting force.â While the American force is en gaged in all naval activities of the home fleet, the main task of the British and American heavy ships has been to keep the Nazi super battleship Tlrpitz, the battleships Scharnhorst and Gneisenau, the pocket battleship Admiral Scheer and the strong cruisers Admiral Hipper and Prinz Eugen bottled up. The RAF has so battered the Nazi fleet that the Scharnhorst, Gneisenau and Prinz Eugen are in German port for repairs, but it is not known how soon they may be ready for action again. The 35,000-ton Tirpitz and the 10,000-ton Admiral Hipper also have been reported hit by bombs but not put out of action. Ever since spring reopened the Arctic route to Russia observers have been expecting the German warships to make a desperate ef fort to cut the supply line in what probably would be the biggest naval engagement of the war in European waters. Admiral Harold R. Stark, com mander of United States naval forces in European waters, per sonally welcomed the United States task force, which is under his direct command. Admiral Giffin, in an official statement after the colorful cere mony in which King George in spected the American ships, said the king had sent the following message: âIt has given me great pleasure to have had this opportunity of visiting the United States ships and thus being enabled to meet some officers and men of the United States Navy task force of the home fleet. âI have been deeply impressed by the smart and efficient appear ance of the ships and shipsâ com panies and I congratulate you and all those under your command up on the alert and cheerful spirit with which you are undertaking your duties in the common cause. âThe enjoyment of my visit has been much enhanced by the pre sence of Admiral Stark. I send you and your officers and men my best wishes for a safe return to your homes when victory is won.ââ -V-â FEW DARK NIGHTS Completely dark nights in the polar regions are an exception.
