French Are Told
U. S. Will Help
London.—Prime Minister Win
ston Churchill promised the
world la.st night that Britain will
be ma.«ter of the skies by 1941
and that the United States will
aid in crushing Adolf . Hitler,
whom he called “this monstrous
abortion ot hatred and deceit.’’
In a radio message of hope to
stricken France and her people,
the fiery rhurchlll scoffed at
Hitler’s invasion threats with the
challenge that Britain is “wa'iting
for the long-promised Invasion—
and so are the fishes.”
S'peaking first in French and
then in English in a world-wide
radio hook-up, Churchill urged
the Nazi-dominated French peo
ple to do nothing that might aid
Hitler’s costly struggle against
Britain.
To See Retribution
He said that Hitler’s mounting
crimes are bringing upon him and
ail his Nazi satellites a retribu
tion “which many of us will live
to see.’’
“It will not be long,’’ he prom
ised his listeners, “the story is
not yet finished.
“We are on his track and so
are our friends across the At
lantic Ocean.”
Speaking while German bombs
smashed upon London around
him, Churchill told of Hitler’s
boasts that he will reduce Lon
don “to ashes” but said that
Britain’s air force has “more
than held its own.”
“But, of course, this for us is
only the beginning,” he said con
fidently.
“Now, in 1940, we have as al
ways command of the sea. In
1941 we shall have command of
the air.”
Offensive Promised
Churchill echoed the senti
ments expressed a few ho-urs ear
lier by A. V. .Xlexander, first lord
of the admiralty, who said in a
speech that Britain is determined
to "carry this fight into the en-
fields until we win.”
Britain wHl not permit any
stalemate in the war after crush
ing the .siege of the British Isles
and carrying the war back to the
enemy. Alexander said.
Churchill’s broadcast was made
over several long and short-wave
lengths to defeat any German at
tempts to “jam” it and prevent it
from reaching the ears of the
French people.
He appealed to Anglo-French
unity despite the existing condi
tions and said that “when good
people get into trouble because
they have been attacked and
heavily smitten by the vile and '
wicked they must be careful not j
to get at loggerheads with one i
another.”
He warned the French people
of what they might expect at the
hands of a man like Hitler.

ference Over Draftees
Numbers of Wilkes young men,
who were registered for the .se
lective service program some ten
days ago, have expressed their
desire to volunteer for a year’s
training in the service of the
United States army now but are
not certain they will be accepted
for only 12 months training be
fore the actual drafting of regis
trants is begun.
The answer is they won’t.
If a qualified young man en
lists in the army now now he will
be subject to three years’ train
ing.
But this young man may ex
press his desire to volunteer to
the local draft board, which will
take his name and address, and
after the national lottery is held,
he will given preference over
persons who are drafted. The
supply of volunteers will be ex
hausted before any men are ac
tually drafted.
