AIR COMBAT DEEPENSThose bombers that take out a return

ticket from Britain to Africa haveintroduced into the air war a newfactor. This extension of the air blitzprogramme is too recent to be ad-judged as having passed the testingstage; in fact, the whole ambitiousprogramme of the British and theAmerican air forces in Europe mustbe regarded in the light of a legitimatemilitary adventure, full of promise butnot yet proved 'to demonstration.Lately an outstanding feature of theair war has been the disparity betweenItalian anti-aeroplane measures andthose of Germany. The Africa-basedair attack on Italy has met with lessdangerous opposition than the Britain-based attack on Germany; and it seemsthat this disparity is likely to continue,for Hitler may be expected to concen-trate all his available air force todefend Germany rather than find anysurplus to send to Italy's generaldefence. Token support of Italy byGermany, in the matter of air power,there may be. But the indications arethat Hitler is making a supreme effortto inflict the greatest possible damageon Ruhr-raiding aircraft; that the Ruhris more important to him than are themanufacturing towns of Italy; andthat even the Russian front and theMediterranean fighting line will notget any ,more than minimum require-ments of German air power, so longas Hitler retains a hope of breakingthe air blitz on the Ruhr by counter-measures.

It is pointed out by the "Daily Tele-graph" that a British-based bomberthattakesout a return tickettotheRuhronly is likely to meet with interceptingenemy fighters both going and coming.But the African return ticket enablesthe Ruhr-raiding bombers to continuesouthward after their bombs have beendropped, avoiding an immediate returnover well-armedGermany, and enjoy-ing the comparative quiet of the south-ward trip, because "Northern Italy'sdefences are notoriously weak."Indeed, the Italian night-fighterstrength is described as negligible, andthis authority adds: "Thus, after thebombing [of Germany] the Lancastershad moreor less an armchair flight toNorth .Africa, with a smaller risk oflosses. The Italian defences would nothave expected the Allied bombers tojcome their way after unloading theirbombs on Friedrichshafen. Theelement of surprise must have beenequally effective on the return flightfrom Africa. The German defences'face" Britain; the German radio-loca-tion detection systems are presumablyorganised to pick up raiders coming infrom the west or north; but thebombers, flying in a general northerlydirection from Spezia (Italy) towardsGermany, came in behind the Germandefences without having to go outfrom Britain, and thusraise the alarm1in Germany. By flying to North Africathe Lancasters were able to strikemuch further into Axis territory thanwould normally have been possible atmidsummer." For the present, there-fore, the so-called shuttle bombinggives safer flying over parts of thenew Britain-Africa route. It must in-volve,, however, considerable groundorganisation at the southern end, andthere is "at present no indication as towhether the organisation and resourcesof the British and American air forcesare equal to making a shuttle servicefrequent, and, if so, how frequent. Allthat can be said is that it offers atpresent a degree of safety from losseswhich German anti-aircraft measuresareraising to a considerable figure. Allthese considerations are contributoryto the long-standing discussion con-cerning to what degree the downfallof Germany can be brought nearer byair action, and whether air action canexpedite a decision within this year.

The German anti-aircraft servicesthat were "on their toes" waiting forthe immediate return of Friedrich-shafen's attackers (who did not come)were fooled, but it will be hardlypossible to fool them so completelyagain. That the whole anti-aircraftpersonnel of Germany is on its toes,spurred on by Hitler to makea mightyeffort in a supreme crisis, can hardlybe doubted. Radio news to hand todaystates: "The Germans last night puteverything they had into the defencesguarding the Ruhr. They pushed theouter ring of defences to the coast,and our pilots met a heavy barrageoverBelgium. The barrage intensifiedas the bombers hurtled into the Ruhr.Huge belts of searchlights tried to stopour bombers. The Dusseldorf andCologne defences were in action, andevery searchlight in Elberfeld was inservice. Many night-fighters were up,too, and there were duels from theRuhr back to the English coast. Thenight's operations, which includedother attacks in the Ruhr and mine-laying, cost us 33 bombers, eight ofthem Canadian." The other side of thispicture is that "Elberfeld's war in-dustries were heavily blitzed. Onepilot said the fires merged until theycovered a large area, and this pilotwas oneof the earliest in theraid. TheAir Ministry says the weight of ourattack was nearly as heavy as oneattack recently when more than a]thousand acres of Ruhr factories weredamaged." To see the picture inperspective, it has to be realised thatHitler is fighting back against theAllies' air-stranglehold' just as theAllies fought back against Hitler's Ü-boat stranglehold. Hitler is trying toshoot his way out of a verytight placeon land, as we shot our way out of atight place at sea. The combatdeepens.It is far from being over. Of the|result we have no doubt whatever.But this amany-sided war still has tobe won.

BANKS AND THE STATE"Some time the Government is going

to have to takeover the private banksand use the people's credit for thepeople," declared the Minister ofTransport (Mr. O'Brien) when speak-ing in the Budget debate this week.Since the Government had taken office,said the Minister, there had been anincrease in the wages of the people,and those wages hadbeen gathered inby the banks in the form of deposits.This statement, coming from a respon-sible Minister of the Crown at thepresent time, is most unfortunate.Especially is this so because it followsso closely on the endorsement by the[Labour Conference of the declarationby the Minister of-Finance (Mr. Nash)

ithat it was not considered necessary,in view-of the control already exercised

over the banking system, to purchasethe trading banks. The Minister, in hisaddress to the' Labour Conference,saidthat the very nature of the bankingbusiness was such that under.a systemof State ownership it would be hardto carry out some oi' the principles,particularly during the shortage ofman-power and the more urgent neces-sity of the war effort. Under thepresent system customers who weredissatisfied with one bank could taketheir business to anotherbank. Undera State-owned system they could notdo this. The resistance afforded bythe trading banks to the importunitiesof borrowers who wanted to committhemselves beyond their resources wasa valuable bulwark to any Govern-ment. The circumstances of today—the controls available and operating—and the co-operation now being givenby the trading banks, said Mr. Nash,rendered it unnecessary to acquire anyor all of them. " ,

This statement, which, according tothe official newspaper of the LabourParty, was endorsedby the conference,may be accepted as the definite policyof the Government. It is, of course,open to any member of the party todisagree with such a policy, and toexpress publicly such disagreement, butit is unusual, to say the least, for aMinister of the Crown to adopt suchan attitude. Such statements cannotfail to cause concern in the publicmind. In Mr. O'Brien's statement, too,there is a suggestion that there issomething wrong in people depositingtheir surplus money In the tradingbanks, and that they should not havethe right to decide in whose care thatmoney should be placed. .The people'swages have been "gathered in" by thebanks only because the people havechosen that way of safeguarding theircapital. They have other channelsthrough which they can make th&irinvestments, and the State should cer-tainly not restrict their choice. Itwould be entirely wrong for anyGovernment to say thatbecause peopleprefer the private bank method, there-fore the Government will take thebanks over.

LETTERS TO THE EDITORTHE CIVIC RECEPTION

Sir,—I have read his Worship theMayor's letter in your issue of thisafternoon. I prefer not to comment butto state the precise facts, which are asfollows:—

On Monday, June 21, at about 5 p.m.,having ascertained that the residentWellington Judges and a visitingJudge had just received invitations tothe civic reception, and not having re-ceived one myself, I directed my as-sociate to telephone the Town Clerkand inform him that Lady Myers andI desired to attend and that I assumedthat seats would be reserved for us ascustomary. My associate reported tome that the Town Clerk informed himthat an invitation had not been sentto me and that in not sending it he,the Town Clerk, had acted "upon in-structions from higher up," I thentelephoned the Town Clerk myself andIsaid that my associate had broughtme an extraordinary message which Icould not understand. He said that hewas sorry, but that he had toobey instructions. I then said thatLady Myers and I desired to attend

iand that' I should like the customaryIcourtesy of reserved seats. The TownClerk replied that the Mayor's orderswere that seats were not to be re-served. Upon my saying that I wasamazed and that the matter could notend there he said of his own volitioni that he would see the Mayor again. I|said that I would remain in my cham-bers for about a quarter of an hour: Igave him my unlisted telephone num-ber and he promised to ring me afterhe had seen the Mayor. In about tenor fifteen minutes he telephoned meand said: "I have seen the Mayor: hesays that he will consider your re-quest." J > said that that messagemerely added %o the insult, and thatthe matter could not rest there. Hesaid, "I am sorry, but I am only obey-[ing orders." He suggested that I speakto the Mayor myself, and I answered,"Certainly not."It is correct that an invitation was

delivered at my chambers. about 9.15on Tuesday morning, but without aword of explanation. I desired if Icould to avoid possible embarrass-ment to others, and it occurred to me

(that that might be overcome if theMayor was evenat that late stage pre-pared to withdraw gracefully. I there-fore telephoned the Town Clerk andtold him that I had received the in-vitation and could not attend the re-iception, and that I proposed taking acertain course of action which, how-ever, could be avoided by the Mayor|at once sending me (but not for pub-lication) an expression of regret forhis insults of the previous day. Ispoke to the Town Clerk in confi-dence, but he said that he would liketo tell the Mayor what I had said, andI toldhim that I had no objection. Hadsuch an expression of regret beenmade it would have ended the matter.But nothing was heard from the'Mayor.

The value of the Mayor's present ex-planation may perhaps be best esti-mated by the fact that neither theTown Clerk in his conversations withme over the telephone, nor the Mayorhimself when sending the invitation,or later when I said that a proper ex-pression of regret was required, said asingle word of any difficulty in regardto seating or otherwise. Surely, ifthere was an explanation, that was thetime to make it.

For the Mayor to talk about an af-front to the city councillors is a pal-pable absurdity.—I am, etc.,

MICHAEL MYERS,Chief Justice'sChambers,

Wellington, June 25, 1943.

Sir,—The Chief Justice omits to saythat his secretary was definitely in-formed by the Town Clerk that hewas not to assume that no invitationwould be sent, but that it was held upin the meantime. This is the crux ofthe whole situation and has been over-looked by the Chief Justice.

The reason for this temporary hold-ing back of the invitation was simplyto enable consideration of the arrange-ment of the platform seating to becompleted. As I stated in my previousletter, we had to endeavour to findroom for sixty-six persons on a plat-form that accommodated normallyonly fifty-five. .

The puisne Judges were invited tothe auditorium only, but it was a con-dition that -the Chief Justice shouldbe seated in a prominent position onthe platform.—l am, etc..

T, C. A. HISLOP, ,Mayor.

ELECTION DATE

UNFAIR TO FARMERS?Stating that he understood the

General Election would be held earlyin September, Mr. H. G. Dickie (Na-tional, Patea), who is not seeking re-election, expressed the opinion, whenspeaking on the Imprest Supply Billin the House of Representatives yes-iterday, that it would be entirely un-fair to the country districts.

Mr. Dickie said it would involvecampaigning in August, the busiestseason in the year for the countrypeople. Lambing was then takingplace, and dairy farmers were alsostarting on their busy season.

Mr. Dickie contended that appar-ently the date had been fixed to suitthe convenience of one person—Mr.Nash—who, he understood, wanted toget back to Washington as soon aspossible. "The whole country is to beupset to suit this gentleman's con-venience," added Mr. Dickie. He sug-gested that the proper time to holdthe election would be October, whenthe weather would be better and thecountry roads in a more suitable con-dition, the days would be longer, andpeople would have a breathing spaceto attend candidates' meetings.

Tuis More Plentiful.There are many more tuis than usual

at this time of year in the BotanicalGardens and elsewhere in thecity, andit looks as if this most .attractivenative bird is firmly re-establishing it-self in urban areas. One reason maybe that food is more plentiful thanusual, the flowering gums that havebeen extensively planted being one ofthe attractions. In the spring the ko-whai trees are a lure. The tuis, more-over, are remarkably tame. An in-crease in the number of tuis has beenremarked upon in« other places thanWellington, the city of Nelson beinganother place where they are becom-ing increasingly common.Telling- The Time.

Responsibility for the impositionupon the radio listening public of N,ewZealand of the "0-0 hours" time system-is placed in the annual report of theNational Broadcasting Service uponthe Chiefs of Staff of the Forces. Attheir request, says the report, an-nouncements of time are made by sta-tions on the basis of the 24-hour clockas well as on the 12-hour clock basis,in order to make the public familiarwith the method of time calculationwhich would be largely used in anemergency.Fewer Radio Licences.

During the year ended March 31last 368,165 radio receiving licenceswere issued a decrease in the year of3094, stated the annual report of theNational Broadcasting Service pre-sented to Parliament yesterday. Thedecrease could be attributed to, amongother things, thewartimelimitationsonradio dealers in regard to materialsand man-power and to the fact thatmany men in the Forces would nothave renewed their licences.Bills Before House.

The Financial Debate in the Houseof Representatives was, interruptedyesterday to permit of the passage ofan Imprest Supply Bill voting twomonths' supply to provide financialaccommodation for State services. Thetotal amount of the schedules in theBill is £13,02^000. A Finance Billcontaining a number of miscellaneousand validating clauses was also intro-duced and was read a first time. Theannual taxing Bill also madeit appear-ance. This measure reimposes therates of income and land taxes in op-eration last year. The House roseat 5.15 p.m. for the weekend adjourn-ment.Shot Rabbit During Battle.

Writing to his parents, Private H.Le Page, who has driven a carrier dur-ing the various Libyan campaigns, de-scribes an incident in the final opera-tions, states the Christchurch "Star-Sun." ' "We had arrivedat the startingline for the attack on the gap, andwere waiting for zero hour and, asusual before an attack, had that funnyfeeling. Justnear where we were wasa patch of broad beans so we decidedthat some would not be amiss andfilled a bag with them. Then Jerrydecided to give us all he had, and a

!slit trench was the safest place for atime. After a while things quieteneddown a bit and, looking out, I saw acouple of rabbits come out. When IIhad got a rifle they had disappearedround some bushes, so I climbed outand stalked them. I got one and thenlicked back as fast as I could beforeJerry got me. It came in very nicely,especially as our cooks didn't manageto get up to the front that evening."

Broadcast from Troops.More than 4550 personal messages

from New Zealand servicemen over-seas were broadcast by the NationalBroadcasting Service in the twelvemonths ended March 31 last, the figurebeing nearly double that of the pre-vious year, said the annual report ofthe N.B.S. presented to Parliamentyesterday. Of last year's messages3139 were from the Middle East, 640from Britain and 771 from^Canada andthe United States. In addition topersonal greetings therewere86broad-casts of discussions, personal experi-ences, and commentaries by membersof the forces overseas. Greetings andtalks for members of the Maori Bat-talion were broadcast in a special pro-gramme. Recorded talks on subjectsof New Zealand interest were suppliedto the 8.8.C. for broadcasting in Eng-land and to the Broadcasting Unit inthe Middle East for broadcasting toNew Zealand forces in Africa.Mr. Scrimgeour.

The Manawatu and Wanganui sub-branch of the New Zealand Dairy Fac-tories and Related Trades EmployeesIndustrial Union of workers, states"The Post's" Manawatu correspondent,resolved, that it was. unanimously insympathy with the Controller of Com-mercial Broadcasting, Mr. C. G. Scrim-geour, "who, as a reward for standingto his principles—principles apparentlynot in conformity with those of certainLabour leaders—was made the victimof a personal vendetta culminating mhis dismissalfrom aposition he has socreditably and efficiently held since theinception of commercial broadcasting,and we strongly urge that the Minis-ters responsible for his dismissal takesteps to effect his reinstatement." Themeeting also resolved that it was em-phatically opposed to any individualholding Ministerial office when that in-

dividual had not been duly and demo-cratically elected by the people, anddesired to point out to the Governmentthat these high-handed, arbitrarymethods would not be forgotten norforgiven by many of its former sup-porters when the question of a furthermandate came up for consideration.Lyttelton Tunnel Road.

A conference of localbody and otherdelegates in Christchurch on Thursday,at which Mr. V. E. Hamilton, of theChamber of Commerce, presided, sanc-tioned the following motion:—-"We ap-prove of the Tunnel road betweenChristchurch and Lyttelton as a workof national importance, and ask theGovernment tofavourably consider thematter, the cost to be borne by theGovernment, and that any remodellingof the port be done as and when inthe opinion of the Lyttelton HarbourBoard the trade of the port justifiesthe expenditure, or when in the courseof renewals and replacements,wharves, etc., have to be constructed."As several of the delegates announcedthat they had no authority to vote, itwas decided that this motion shouldbe merely an expression of opinionfrom the conference, and that theyshould report to their respective localbodies and organisations, states the"Press." The conference was adjourn-ed until the first week in August, "Themotion is extraordinary in as muchas it had not been voted upon," saidMr. W. S. MacGibbon, "but it • ex-presses the spir.it of the meeting.'*

LAND SETTLEMENTRETURNED MEN

GOVERNMENT CRITICISEDA good deal of attention was given

by members of the Opposition to thequestion of land settlement when theImprest Supply Bill was before theHouse of Representatives yesterdayafternoon. Mr. W. S. Goosman,mem-ber for Waikato, blamed the Govern-ment for the present high price offarm houses and improvements.

There were some fairly large blocksin the Waikato available for rehabilita-tion, said Mr. Goosman, but the dif-ficulty would be the cost. He mention-ed land which was worth £25 to £30an acre in its present state. If cut intosmall farms of 100 acres each the costof homes, milking sheds, stores, andconcrete yards would increase the costby £30 an acre. Cut into smallerblocks, the cost would be at least£100 an acre. The improvements androads would cost more than the landitself. He thought the Governmentshould bear this in mind in any schemeit brought down. High costs were theresult of -the Government's policy. Nowit was up to the Government to solvethe problem.

Mr. H. G. Dickie (National, Patea)agreed with Mr. Goosman's conten-tions.

Mr. A. S. Sutherland (National,Hauraki) said that the Land and Sur-vey Department had been treatedwithscant consideration by the presentGovernment. The office of Minister ofLands had been vacant ever since themember for Waimarino had left NewZealand for Washington. The presentMinister of Agriculture (Mr. Barclay),who was Acting Minister ofLands, wasalready overworked and had no, timeto spend on the business of the Landsand Survey Department. The Gov-ernment should have appointed some-body else to the portfolio, a man withsome knowledge of land settlementand development. A primary produc-ing country such as New Zealandshould never be without a competentMinister in charge of land. The De-partment was starving for lack ofleadership.

"I think the question of land settle-ment should be arresting the attention*of every member of this House at thepresent time," said Mr. D. C. Kidd(National, Waitaki), "but it seems to bea question the Government is afraidto face up to." It was not wiseto waituntil the men got back from the warand then get all hot and botheredaboutrehabilitating them. They should planahead wisely. Mr. Kidd said he couldforesee many difficulties in the ac-quisition of land at its productive value.In the first place there were no stand-ard farmers. Of two farmers owningadjacent properties, one might be afirst-class farmer and the other apoorfarmer. How was the productive valueto be arrived at there? The man whowas a good farmer was going to getthe better price.

LAND AGGREGATION."I would.say that the actions of the

present Government have made the re-habilitation of our soldiers very muchmore difficult than it would have beenif the land problems of this countryhad been handled wisely," added Mr.Kidd. "I am referring to the regroup-ing of Government land. ... I saythatmore land aggregation has gone onunder the Labour Government thanunder any Government that has heldoffice."

Mi*. J. Robertson (Government, Mas-! terton): Nonsense.

Instead of memy of these farms beingregrouped, said Mr. Kidd, they shouldhave been held for the returned ser-vicemen. If the Government couldrehabilitate the servicemen for a lossof £5,000,000or £6,000,000he wouldsay it had done a good job. Membersof the Opposition wanted to see themen get cheap places, but did not|want to see other people robbed toaccomplish that.

Mr. W. J. Broadfoot (National, Wai-tomo) said he thought the Governmentshould be acquiring properties whicheven today could be bought at a pricethat, in his opinion, was below theproductive value. There was diffidenceabout taking them over because of theshortage of fertiliser and fencing wire,but they could be farmed moderatelyin the meantime until those essentialsbecame available.

TOUR OF DOMINIONGENERAL FREYBERG

Lieutenant-General Sir BernardFreyberg, V.C, will pay brief visitsto centres in both North and SouthIslands, subject to changing exigenciesof the war situation.

"Civic receptions," said the PrimeMinister (Mr. Fraser) in a statementlast night, "will be accorded GeneralFreyberg on Monday evening next atChristchurch, at Invercargill on Tues-day evening, and at Dunedin on Wed-nesday evening.

"On the return journey from Inver-cargill be will go to Dunedin by train,and at scheduled stops, where timeallows, will informally meet the localpeople on the platform. On Thursdaynext week the General will journeyfrom Dunedin to Christchurch by theexpress, and the same procedure asbetween Invercargill and Dunedin willbe observed at scheduled stops. Hewill arriveback in Wellington on Fri-day, July 2, and will be engaged inconsultations with the Government andservice authorities. Sunday afternoon,July 4, General Freyberg will fly to

;New Plymouth, where he will stayovernight. Arrangements are beingimade for a brief civic welcome onMonday morning, July 5, after whichthe General will proceed by rail-carto Palmerston North, calling at Wanga-nui en route, and at stations along theline. His itinerary on Tuesday will bePalmerston North to Masterton by air,and from Masterton to Napier by rail-car, with station stops. On Wednesdayhe will go by air from . Napier toRotorua, via Gisborne, arriving atRotorua either in time for lunch orin the early afternoon. His stay atRotorua will extend till Friday mom-ing, July 9, when he willproceed over-iland to Auckland. A full detaileditinerary for the information of allthe people concerned in each districtwill be issued later.

"It will be seen from this outline,"continued' the Prime Minister, "that

ieveryeffort has been made in the timelat Sir Bernard Freyberg's disposal forIhim to visit or pass through as manylocalities as possible in both islands.None more than the Government andGeneral Freyberg himself regrets theimpossibility of an even more compre-hensive tour. In particular, it is amatter of very great regret that ithas been found impossible for him tovisit the West Coast, Nelson, Marl-borough, King Country, Bay of Plenty,or North Auckland, but I feel sure thatthe people of those districts willrealisethat their exclusion from his itinerarywas rendered inevitable by the timefactor."

SHIFT SOUTHHELPING WAR EFFORT

MR. HOLLAND'S CONTENTIONBy the transfer pi some industrial

activity from the North to the SouthIsland not only would the war efforthe helped but the living; cf#iditions ofmany North Island people would beimproved, contended the Leader of theOpposition (Mr. Holland), speaking onthe Imprest Supply Bill in the Houseof Representativesyesterday afternoon.He endorsed previous proposals forsuch transfers made by the member forKaiapoi (Mr. Morgan Williams) andthe member for Timaru (Mr. ClydeCarr).

Mr. Holland said he was not makingthe suggestions in any parochial spiritbut purely in his desire to help NewZealand and the war effort generally.At the present time he felt concernedabout the tendency among the Govern-ment and departments to concentrateas much activity as possible in theNorth Island, when by the transfer ofsome of the work to the South Islandthe war effort could be considerablyimproved.

"DEPLORABLE CONDITIONS."Living conditions in Wellington and

Auckland and other parts of the NorthIsland were deplorable, and he wouldsuggest that a committee be set up inthe House to make a survey of NewZealand and see where better accom-.modation could be found for a greatmany working people. In various partsof the North Island there were seriousshortages of coal, gas, and electricity—a position that did not obtain in theSouth Island. He also could not under-stand why th<* military schools couldnot be in the South Island, and thoughtthe Americans might use some of thecamps in the South Island.

The Prime Minister (Mr. Fraser): Itis a question of their -whole organisa-tion and being as near as possiblewhere they have to go to.

Mr. Holland thenbecame involvedma verbal tussle with Mr. F. W.Schramm (Government, AucklandEast), who claimed that the Leader ofthe Opposition did not speak for thepeople of Auckland.

Mr. Holland declared that he wasspeaking on behalf of a great .manypeople in Auckland.

Mr. Schramm: You are a poeticalhot dog. You won't get one seat anAuckland. Grey Lynn might helpyou, but that will be the only one.

"DISCONTENT CAUSED"ARMY APPOINTMENTS

Notice of a question concerning ap-pointments to commissions on the tem-porary military staff was given to theMinister of Defence by Mr. W. Sulli-van (National, Bay of Plenty) in theHouse of Representatives yesterdayafternoon. . He asked whether it wasthe Government's policy to appointmen without any military experienceand who were graded and eligible foroverseas service, while at the sametime reducing to non-commissionedrank men who had been serving withcombatant units and who had wontheir commissions. . A

Mr. Sullivan said that three appoint-ments to the temporary staff had beengazetted on June 17, the new, officersbeing employed in the Security In-vestigation Bureau. The granting ofthese commissions had caused discon-tent in the Army.

"UNJUST ATTACKS"

WATERSIDE WORKERSThe Wellington branch of the STew

Zealand "Waterside Workers' Union,, ata special meeting called this morning

to discuss the Liberty Loan, passedthe following resolution:—

"That this meeting emphatically pro-tests against the unwarranted and un-just attacks made on the watersideworkers of New Zealand by theNationalist members of Parliament,members of the Wellington HarbourBoard, and other associations of busi-ness men and employers. The water-side workers of New Zealand haveworked long hours as required by theGovernment and have given better ser-vice to the industry and quicker dis-patch of vessels than during any pre-vious period in the history of. thewaterfront.

"This meeting of waterside workersdeclares itself in support of the Gov-ernment loan and calls upon its mem-bers to subscribe to the best of theirability, and will continue to do every-thing in its power to assist the wareffort in order that the forces of Fas-cism may be defeated. We believethat it is only by the victory of theAllied Nations that we shall, retainthe Tight of freedom, of association,government by democracy, economicsecurity, and human freedom.'

Insufficiency of electric power at thepresent time was an obstacle to thestarting of new industries, and thatwas going to affect rehabilitation ofservicemen, said Mr. W, J. Broadfoot(National, Waitomo) in the House ofRepresentatives yesterday afternoon.Mr. Broadfoot suggested to the Minis-ter of Works that it might be possibleto arrange with Sweden now for thebuilding of machines for the genera-tion of more electricpower in the Do-minion. To oyercome any man-powershortage it might also be possible toarrangewith Swedento send some mento the Dominion to construct the addi-tional hydro-electric stations. ; .

SURPRISE FOR A ZERO FIGHTER.General Henry S. Arnold, Com-

mander U.S. Army Air Forces, after arecent visit to Port Moresby and otherPacific bases, had several interesting,stories to tell. One of the best was the1following:—

Some time before the American B-17plane had the ball turrets added, afloor gunner in a B-17 was woundedin a scrap with a Zero over Guadal-canal. The radio operator leaped totake the wounded man's place, butfound that the gun mounting had beenshot loose from the floor by enemymachine-gun fire. In his frantic en-deavours to get the gun trained onthe Jap plane the operator yanked itcompletely loose and it fell overboardthrough the hole in the floor of theplane. The result, was amazing, forin its swift drop towards the sea thegun smashed into the Zero fighter,which disintegrated into a thousandpieces. When the gunner was report-ing the happening the CO. suggestedto him thathe should be punished for:losing U.S. (Government property! Hethen pinned a medal on the gunner'stunic.

SECOND DOUBLE BLOWR.A.F. and U.S. Air ForceHEAVY RAIDS ON GERMANYBee. 11 a.m. BUGBY, June 25.

Bombers of the R.A.F. and of the American Eighth Air Forcehave delivered another double blow against Germany.

The K.A.F. last night made its second heavy attack on Wup-pertal, concentrating' this time on Elberfeld, which received aweight of bombs nearly as heavy as Barmen did when over 1000acres were devastated. The Germans had pushed the outer ring' ofdefences to the coast, and the attack was pressed home in the faceof strong* opposition. Thirty-three of our bombers, including eightCanadian aircraft, are missing 1.

Not many, hours after the R.A.F. raid on Wuppertal a largeforce of unescorted Flying' Fortresses attacked in daylight targetsin north-west Germany. Adverse weather was encountered and ob-servation of the targets was difficult. There was also strong* fighteropposition, and many enemy aircraft were destroyedby the bombers.Eighteen of the American planes are missing.

The Germans last night tried tomake a bigger effort than ever to holdoff the bombers from the Ruhr area.Scores of searchlights and a heavybarrage greeted them.

Crews reported that "the coast de-fences had obviously been strengthen-ed, but a far. more intense struggleawaited them" when they i*eached theRuhr on. the way to Elberfeld, oneof the towns which forms Wuppertal,states the Air Ministry news service.

firm that the air attack against Kre-feld was an unprecedentedsuccess, says"The Times." *

In addition to enormous damage in-flicted on industrial enterprises suchas the Krefelder Stahlwerke, it says,great destruction has been wrought onsupplies and stores which were await-ing dispatch to the U-boat bases inFrance. All of Germany's direct railtraffic from the north-west had beendislocatedfor some time by the almostcontinuous bombardment of the Ruhr,and as a consequence the Krefeld

Huge belts of searchlights tried-to spot-light the bombers, and light and heavyguns plumbed flak through the' beams.One pilot was caught in searchlightsfor 20 minutes when he reached theRuhr area, and was hit several timesbefore he reached his objective. The''Germans' reinforced the defences bysending up many night fighters. j

Despite all opposition, the bombersarrived over Elberfeld on time, andfires, were soon started. One bomberwas hit by incendiaries from above.These fell into the bomb bay ancl thedoors were opened to let them dropout.

The heavy bombers of the Eighth AirForce encountered a solid wall of jclouds as they reached the German|coast. Ploughing through a foglikeDank, the bombers broke through intostretches of bright sunlight, but theground was totally obscured. Out ofthe clouds came swarms of enemyfighters to dive upon some of thegroups. Countless individual battlesraged as the big bombers slipped intoand through the clouds and back intobx-ight sunlight, always urging on to-wards their .'target New relays ofenemy fighters joined in the melee,and the battle became fiercer. A largenumber of enemy planes is known tohave been destroyed, but it is doubt-ful if the exact number can be de-termined, as the visibility was too poorto?perroit observation of .results.,of thescores of encounters.

When the bombers had reached thespot where the instruments told themthey should find their objectives,.clouds still obscured the ground inmost places. Some of the heavies foundrifts and dived through them, search-ing for the target. In no instance wasit possible to observe the bombing re-sults satisfactorily' while over north-west Germany.

The battle continued as the forma-tion turned for home, and encounterswere many on the return journey.—b;o.w.

station and marshalling yards werecrammed. Trains are trying to passthe congested areas by circuitousroutes. Considerable quantities ofmotorised equipment from the EasternFront are awaiting dispatch to France.The destruction at Krefeld stationmeans that German rail traffic to thewest is also at a standstill.

The neutral Press emphasises thatmany U-boat motors which were await-ing dispatch at the Maybach Motoren-werke, in Friedrichshafen,- were de-stroyed. Bombs also fell on theDormer' aircraft factory at Manzell,

|near Friedrichshafen.German official figures state that

there are 6000 dead as a result of theraid on Barmen.

WHEN WINTER COMESREAL EFFECT OF RAIDS

(^y Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright.)Rec. 12.40 p.m. LONDON, June 25.

"The Rhinelanders are the best typeof Germans, and should 'stick it' bet-ter than those of any other place inGermany, but the continual R.A.F.blitz is slowly but surely having itseffect,'" says the Stockholm corres-pondent of the "Daily Telegraph.""Lack of sleep is affecting the efficiencyof thefactory workers. Breaking pointis still some distance away, and thereis no active movement to end thewar,but morale is likely to become consid-erably worse when the dreaded wintercomes and rain, snow, and icy winds■begin to go through the roofless fac-tories and the windowless houses inwestern Germany."

Describing the devastationat Elber-feld, which was the R.A.F. target lastnight, Berlin radio said: "Smoke andflames are still rising from the debrisof the destroyed houses. It is a pic-ture of frightfulness and destructionthan which nothing more horrifyingcan be imagined. Never must this beallowed to be forgotten. For manymiles beforereaching the town we meta stream of homeless refugees, labori-ously and painfully dragging them-,selves along. The nearer we ap-proached the town the more frightfulbecame the picture. The highway wasdottedwith bomb-craters,"criss-crossedwith splintered trees, just lJke a battle-field. Biting smoke wafted against usfrom countless fires. The town itselfwas covered with debris, glass splint-ers, and rubble. Troopsfrom anti-air-craft batteries who had been in actionagainst the raiders a few hours beforewere drafted into the town after the'all clear' to help extinguish thefires." >

SHUTTLE ATTACKTACTICAL PURPOSE

LONDON, June 24.Observers in London believe that the

feat of the bombs which raided Fried-richshafen and Spezia may be the open-, ing of a two-way assault on targetsin Axis and enemy-occupied countriesby planes flying from Britain andNorth Africa.

The "Daily Telegraph," comment-ing on. the R.A.F.'s shuttle attack, says:"One of the tactical aims was to con-fuse the enemy. By continuing flyingsouth after the attack on Friedrich-shafen the bombers avoided the strongfighter and ground defences of westernEurope which would have been ontheir toes for the returning planes.

"The defences of northern tlaly arenotoriously weak. The Italian night-fighter strength is negligible. Thus,after the bombing, the Lancasters hadmoreor less an armchair flight to NorthAfrica, with a smaller risk of losses.The Italian defences would not haveexpected the bombers to come theirway after unloading their bombs onFriedrichshafen.

"The element of surprise must havebeen equally effective on the returnflight. The German defences 'face'Britain; the radio location detectionsystems are presumably organised topick up raiders coming in from thewest or north; but the bombers, flyingin a general northerly direction fromSpezia, came in behind these defenceswithout having to go but from Britainr.nd thus raise the alarm.".

MUCH DAMAGESALONIKA AERODROME

RAID BY HEAVY BOMBERS(By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright.)

Rec. 12.20 p.m. LONDON, June 25.A Cairo air communique states that

United States heavy bombers yes-terday attacked Sedes Aerodrome, atSalonika, in daylight, and set fire tothree hangars, hit, buildings and dis-persal areas,"" and started oil fires. Theydestroyed, at least three aircraft onthe ground. None of the planes ismissing.

The main objective of the raidagainst Secies was to wipe out the airtraining centre, which the Germanshave been using as their mam supplybase in the Mediterranean, says theCairo correspondent of the AssociatedPress of Great Britain. They havestrongly built up. and enlarged theair facilities in this area, and at leastfive aerodromes are operating, includ-ing a seaplane station. Sedes is de-scribed as a first-class air base, andis the largest and most important ofthese bases.

The raid involved a round trip of1100 miles. > , A

The destruction was so extensive thatthe field is likely to be unserviceablefor a long time. Pilots reported widedestruction to hangars, repair shops,barracks, and administration buildings.The attack apparently caught theenemy unawares.VERY LIGHT GROUND DEFENCES.

Although the area was regardedas being heavily defended, it beingthe keypoint of Rommel's new "Sieg-fried Line" in south-eastern Europe,the ground defence was extremelylight, and no enemy fighters wentup. ;

Thousands of pamphlets bearing anencouraging message to the Greekswere dropped by the American planes.

Reuters Cairo correspondent says:"Roaring over the target in two waves,the Liberators blanketed the aerodromewith direct hits. Three large hangarswere blown up. A string of bombsalso fell over the dispersal areas, whichwere so covered with dense smokethat the pilots were able to see onlythree planes destroyed. It is knownthat there was a concentration ofenemy planes at Sedes, and thereforeit is possible that a great many otherswere destroyed."

The Columbia broadcasting system'sAlgiers correspondent reports thatabout 300 planes participated in a raidagainst 'Sardinia yesterday. It wasan ail-American show, while Maraudersplastered railways and Lightnings hada spectacular running fight with largeformations of Messerschmitts, 20 ofwhich were destroyed. Nine of ourplanes are missing.

Other bombers attacked Sicily.

HELD IN WESTFORTY AXIS DIVISIONS

PREPARATIONS FOR DEFENCERec. noon. RUGBY, June 25.

President Roosevelt declared todaythat his desire for a second front wasas strong as the desire of the Russianpeople. Yesterday the United StatesSecretary of War, Mr, H. JL. Stimson,reported that there were indicationsthat Germany was moving: big forcesinto France and Italy .to meet an Al-lied invasion. It is believed in Londonto be safe to assume that the Germanshave about 40 divisions in France andthe Low Countries, totalling perhaps600,000 men, made up of ordinary fieldservice divisions, panzer divisions, andtraining divisions.

This total would exclude non-divisional troops, the'Luftwaffe, andjanti-aircraft troops, S.S. units, etc. -: Mr. Stimson's view, to which ex-

!pression was given a few days ago inLondon that German troops had been'moved to Italian territory recently,would seem to find some measure of■confirmation from Berlin radio whichstated tonight that Sardinia was de-fended by the "pick of the Axis" andwas now equipped with means againstinvasion.—B.O.W.

CLAIM BY GOEBBELSAIR POWER OVERRATED

Rec. noon. LONDON, June 25."The belligerents are shrouding

coming events in artificial fog," saidGoebbels in an article in "Das Reich,"stated IJerlin radio. "The British inparticular are carrying out a war ofnerves in a fruitless attempt to con-fuse Germany and divert her from herplans. Britain and America haveenough tonnage and fighting forces toland at some given point m Europe,but they could not take Germany bysurprise.

"The British thesis that Germanycan be overpoweredby air power aloneis entirely groundless. Germany wouldwelcome an invasion attempt, whichmay well be the prelude to the de-cisive stage of the war. The Britishare overrating the success of theirair war and underrating Germany'seffort at success -under total war."

Berlin radio said: "The deployingmovements of the attackers and de-fenders on the Mediterranean frontappear to have reached their peak. TheItalian and German defences fromSpain to Crete and Rhodes are a bas-tion against which even a strong andwell-equipped enemy would break hishead."

END OF LULL APPROACHESLONDON, June 25.

"The end of the lull is approaching,"said Berlin radio today. "Germantroops are standing shoulder toshoulder with the Italian troops." Romeradio mixed threats of what wouldhappen to the BrrUsh and American"gangster invaders" with admissionsabout the grave conditipns in south-ern Italy.

"H the British and American in-vasion army reaches Italy, it will beannihilated, because the Italian armieswill have the roads and railways tothe rear of them," the' radio said.

Mr. Stimson's statement in Washing-ton was that reports indicated thatGermany was moving forces intoFrance and Italy in expectation of aninvasion. Ten to 12 German divisionshad been moved into France and sev-eral others into Italy.

FRENCH COMMITTEEIMPORTANT STEPS TAKEN

Rec. noon. LONDON, June 25.The French Committee of National

Liberation took a step of far-reach-ing political significance today whenit drew up a decree annulling a decreepassed by the Daladier GovernmentonSeptember 26, 1939, which outlawed

!Communism in France and dissolvedthe Communist Party and all Com-munist organisations.

Reuters Algiers, correspondent saysthat the new decree has not yet beenformally passed. There are at pre-sent 26 Communist deputies in Algierswho were sent to North Africa fromFrance under detention. Their fullcivil rights are now restored, but theirposition as Deputies is not yet clear.

The Committee also annulled' alltrials and penalties imposed for actscommitted, in the ..service of Francesince July, 1940, and restored to officeall officials who were dismissed, pen-sioned, or degraded for national activi-ties., or because of measures imposedby the enemy. - . ■All penalties imposed by Vichy onpublic officials are thus cancelled andthey are now restored to their posi-tions. The Committee also formed aspecial office for Alsace-Lorrainewith a consultative council of nativesof Alsace-Lorraine attached to it. Thereis now a large number of refugeesfrom these provinces in North Africa,

The correspondent states that com-plete harmony prevailed at the meet-ing. Morocco radio, announced thatGeneral de Gaulle presided at theplenary session of the Committee to-day after the arrival in Algiers of M.Bonnet, Commissionerfor Information.

GIRAUD TO VISIT AMERICARec. 1 p.m. RUGBY, June 25.

It is understoodthat General Giraudwill leave for Washington very shortlyat the invitation of President Roose-velt, states an Algiers message. Whenthe French Committeeof NationalLib-eration met this morning M. Monrietinformed his colleagues of the conver-sations which he had with Mr. CordcllHull, U.S. Secretary of State.—B.O.W.

BALKAN COUNTRIES

GERMAN'S OBSERVATIONSRec. 9 a.m. LONDON, June 25.

A Zurich message says that RudolfKircher, chief editor of the "Frank-furter Zeitung," following a tour ofthe Balkans, writes: "I learned thedisappointing fact *hat the majorityof Greeks live in the illusory hope ofBritish and American invasion. TheGreeks refuse to acknowledge reality.The Turks are determined to remainneutral, but events in North Africahave had a great propaganda effect inTurkey, where the Press lias..tactlesslydamaged relations between Turkey andGermany."-

The semi-official Turkish newspaper"Aksam" said that Turkey's relationswith Britain and America in no waywarrant expectations that Turkey willabandon her neutrality.

AIR RIVALRYTHE EASTERN FRONTHEAVY GERMAN LOSSES

(By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright.)Rec. 11.20 a.m. LONDON, June 25.

While the worldstill awaits an erup-tion on the Eastern Front, the Red AirForce is systematically ,raiding theLuftwaffe's first line and second lineaerodromes, where the Germans havegreat concentrations of planes.

These attacks, says Reuters Moscowcorrespondent, have been maintainedpractically daily since June 9, andthe damage to German aircraft'is con-siderable. Its exact extent is un-known, but Lieutenant-Colonel Deni-sov, a Russian air expert, points out,first, that the Germans in the Kubanduring May failed to attain air supei^-iority and.lost three-quarters of theiroperating fighter squadrons, and,secondly, that the Germans are hay-ing exceptionally heavy losses inmassed raids.

Colonel Denisov attributes the Ger-mans'heavy losses to the fact that theRed Air Force is strongerand that thequality of the Russian fighters has im-

-1proved. He adds that the Focke-Wulf190 has been countered by large num-bers of Yak 7's and Lavochkin s's, newRussian fighters, which are now beingmass-produced."With the Spitfires and

!Airacobras, they are unquestionablyIsuperior to the German fighters," hesaid. Colonel Denisov revealed thatthe I.L. 2 attack plane has been per-fected and that the Tupolev 2 has beenadded to the Russian bomber force.

!"The Germans, on the other hand," he! said, "are still flying their oldmachines. Their attempts to modifythe Junkers 87 by fitting two cannonsand using it for attack have not pro-duced a significant improvement, butthe smashing up of many aerodromeshas compelled the Germans to avoidconcentrating large numbers of planesin any single district, and they nowform their raiding forces in the airduring the flight to the target. Also,our strong fighter force simply doesnot allow the Germans to appear insmall groups. Thus the massing ofair forces which the Germans are em-ploying must be regarded as arising

[from necessity rather than choice."

FIGHTING NEAR BYELGORODLONDON, June 25.

ELECTION IN EIREDE VALERA LOSES CONTROL

Rec:*9 a.m. LONDON, June. 25.The final figures in the Eire elections

give the Fianna Fail 67 seats and theOpposition 71.

Fine Gael won 32 seats, Labour 17,Farmers 9, and Independents 13,. Thestate of the parties before the electionwas: Fianna Fail 77, Fine Gael 45,Labour 9, Independents 7.

The Press Association correspondentin Dublin says that although Mr. deValera has lost his clear workingmajority overthe combined Oppositionparties the relations between FiannaFail and the smaller opposition groupsmay easily enable him to come to somearrangement under which his Govern-ment will carry on for a considerabletime.

The Labour deputies, who are themost powerful of the smaller groups,have always been more sympathetic-ally disposed towards Mr. de Valeratlian to Mr-. Cosgrave, and Mr. deValera had to rely on them in earlierAdministrations to preserve his Gov-ernment's stability.

The new strength of the Fanners'Party introduces a more incalculableelement which is likely to influenceMr. de Valera's agricultural policy.

JAPANESE WARNEW PLANS OF ALLIESI HOLDING POLICY ENDEDI (By Telegraph—Press Association -Copyright t

NEW YORK. June 25.There is in high Allied quarters, a

new sense of importance of the Japan-ese war, says Joseph Harsch in the"Christian t Science Monitor." Thischange has come partly from a basictransformation of the European situa-tion, partly from a growing feeling ofdanger of letting Japan go unchal-lenged too long:.

Out of this combination has emergeda strategic plan for the Far East whichdoes not challenge the priority of Ger-many as the enemy to be first de-feated, but which elevates Japan al-most to parity with Germany as anenemy which must be vigorously chal-lenged at an. early date.

Mr. Harsch says that it is now pos-sible to approach the Japanese pro-blem with the' weapons which are nowavailable or will become availablewithin the next six months. What iscoming may still be long delayed, butit is definitely no longer a picture ofmerely having a holding front fromAttu around the long Pacific arc toIndia,

AROUND MUBODESULTORY FIGHTING

SYDNEY, June 25.Only desultory fighting is now occur-

The Australians have moved upartillery, and both sides have beenusing mortars.' A new point in theMubo battle area, Woody Island,figures in the latest reports of thefighting. This is an "island" in thecentre- of a dry creek bed just northof the Mubo village.

MEMBER'S GRIEVANCE

WASHINGTON POSITIONComplaint about the way he alleg-

ed he had been treated by the PrimeMinister over the question of the ap-pointment of a wew Zealand Manisterto Washington was again made in theHouse of Representatives yeste.rd.ayafternoon by Mr. F. Langstone (Gov-ernment, Waimarino), who was former-ly High Commissioner for New Zea-land in Ottawa.

"If the Prime Minister wanted topass a vote of no-confidence in me itwould have been decent of him'to doso in front of my face instead of get-ting me ten thousand miles away andputting the skids under me then, be-cause that is exactly what happened,"said Mr. Langstone.

Mr. Langstone said that he had beena member of the Cabinet and was arepresentative of the people, but hewas treated shabbily, like a schoolboy,while he was ten thousand miles away.

Mr. J. Thorn (Government, Thames):We have all heard that before.

Mr. Langstone: "Well, you can gooutside.

Mr. Langstone continued that he wasgoing to talk on this question overand over again, because inside anyorganisation there had to be straight-forwardness and straight dealing. TheGovernment had said that the worsen-ing of the position in the Pacific wasthe reason why they had sent theMinister of Finance and not himself jto Washington, but that was only anexcuse.

"PEARL HARBOUR" ATTACK.Mr. Langstone said he was not com-

plaining about Ottawa. He had re-signed from that position, he said, be-cause he had told the Prime Ministercertain things. The question of theappointment to Washington had"noth-ing to do with Ottawa. Mr. Lang-stone said that he had been double-crossed and the victim of a "PearlHarbour" attack.

At the Speaker's direction Mr. Lang-stone withdrew the term "double-crossed."

Mr. Langstone said that he wouldnever forget and never forgive afterwhat had happened to him. "If thePrime Minister thinks he can play me!for a 'sucker*, he is making the great-est mistake he has made in his life,because he simply can't get away withthat sort of thing," said Mr. Langstone.He did not mind what action the PrimeMinister took towards him as long aswhat'was done was done with his full,knowledge. "When the'Minister ofFinance came to Washington I was leftlike Mahomet's coffin between heavenand earth . .«" Said Mr. Langstone, whoat this stage was interrupted by Mr.Speaker, as. his time1was exhausted-.

JEWISH NATIONHOPE AND HOMELAND

AN URGENT PROBLEM"The greatest slaughter in history!"

That wa,s how Dr. Michael Traub,Official Representative of the JewishAgency in Palestine, described the setjobject of the extermination of theJewish people—his own people. Helias come to New Zealand, as he wentto Australia, to tell of the hopes andaims of his people for their deliver-ance from their Nazi oppressors, andof their return to and settlement' intheii* own land of Palestine.

In the course of an interview with"The Post" Dr. Traub made it quiteclear that the earnest desire, the burn-ing hope of the Jewish people was theestablishment in Palestine of a Jewishcommonwealth within the frameworkof the British Commonwealth of,Nations. He did not dwell on theagony of the Jews, their fiendish tor-tures at the hands of Hitler and hisNazis, but he made it perfectly clearthat Hitler's solution of the Jewishproblem was the extermination of theJewish people, "for (lie added) it iseasier to murder Jews than to takeStalingrad." That solution, that policyHitler was putting into execution withunbridled lerocity. Dr. Traub re-ferred to Mr. Anthony Eden's declara-|tion in the House of Commons on De-jcember 17, expressiveof sympathy andindignation over the Nazi atrocitiesperpetrated on Jews "but (he added)deeds, surely, must follow sympathy."The problem now was to save as manyJews from Europe as it was possibleto save—while there; was yet time.Describing the Jewish situation inEurope, Dr. Traub pointed out that2,500,000 Jewish men, women, andchildren had already been slaughteredin Nazi Europe. Out of the ,totalJewish population of 7,000,000 who!lived in those countries on the eve ofthe wafl, only 4,500,000 remained alive."We do not know,'' he went on, "whatwill happen to them, but we still hopethat millions will survive.

"Where shall these pepole go afterthe war?" he asked.

PALESTINE THE ONLY PLACE."Overseas countries will be con-j

fronted with their own post-warproblems, and we Jews are afraid thatthe difficult task of enabling millionsof returned soldiers to re-enter eco-nomic life will prove a popular argu-ment against a liberal immigrationpolicy. A great part of the worldwill thus be closed, and we knowfrom all experience that the only last-ing solution of the Jewish immigrationproblem will be Palestine."

Dr. Traub described how the Jewshad their chance of establishing aflourishing nation in Palestine underthe Balfour Declaration; but under theterms of the White Paper of 1939Jewish immigration into Palestine was

limited to 75,000 during the followingfive years and it was to cease in1944. The implementing of thispolicy,said Dr. Traub, would frustrate thehopes of hundreds of thousands ofJewish people, refugees from the Naziand Fascist tyranny.

"There were 50.000 Jews in Pales-tine at the beginning of settlementthere: today there are 550,000, amodernised Jewish society, enterpris-ing, industrious, cultured people, x*eadyto defend their homeland, as they haveproved in this present war. There isno reason why 2,000,000 to 3,000,000Jews should- not be able to enterPalestine during the first decad& afterthe war."

LAND OF AMPLE RESOURCES."Can the country carry them?" Dr.

Traub was asked. He replied that itcould well do so, under modern scien-tific conditions of development of theland and its resources. "In that sense,"he said, "Palestine has been barelyscratched. The absorptive capacity ofthe land is at least 6,000,000. It is forus Jews to develop Palestine-along tilelines we have followed during thepast 20 years. A Jewish common-wealth within the framework of theBritish Commonwealthof Nations willserve the interests not only of thejJewish people but also of Great Bri-

itain in the Near East."When asked about relations with

the Arabs in Palestine, Dr. Traub saidhe was confident that Jews and Arabspossessed a community of interests inPalestine and that they could liveamicably together. "There is roomenough in Palestine," he said, "for themillion Arabs and for those millionsof Jews who will enlarge its absorp-tive capacity by their labour and con-structive work. "We know," he said,"that the Arab riots were the resultof German and Italian propaganda,butonce that is eliminated from Berlinand Rome after the war there willbe peace in Palestine. We Jews as aconstructive factor are called upon toplay .an important role in the develop-ment of Palestine and the surround-ing countries."

Dr. Traub concluded by saying thatthe New Zealand soldiers who hadserved in the last war in Palestineand in this war were the best judgesof the progress achieved by the Jewishcommunity in Palestine during thelast twenty-five years. Thousands ofNew Zealand and Australian soldierswere guests in the Jewish settlements,and "we Palestinian Jews," he said,"were glad to have them in our midst.I am sure that, appreciating ourachievements, they understand ourproblem and will extend to us theirsympathy and good wishes for thesolution of that problem."

PHILIPPINES FIGHTHANDLING OF U.S. PLAISIES| SYDNEY, June 25.! General MacArthur warmly defend-ed the commander of the American AirForce, in the Philippines, Major-Gene-ral Lewis H. Brereton, against chargesof inefficiency during the campaign to-day. The defence is believed to havebeen provoked by criticisms whichhave been published in the UnitedState*.

General MacArthur said: "Criticismsimplying faulty judgment or neglect infailing to take proper securitymeasures resulting in the destructionof "the 'American Air Force on theground did a grave injustice to Major-General Brereton and his gallantsubordinates.

"Th.c force under Major-GeneralBrereton's command comprised only35 heavy bombers and 72 fighters. Thisforce was greatly handicapped byhaving only one airfield, Clark Field,usable by heavy bombers, and onlyfive for fighters.

"Major-General Brereton's tiny airforce was crushed by sheer weight ofnumbers. Its combat crews foughtvaliantly, but were hopelessly out-numbered."

Rec. 12,45 p.m. LONDON, June 25.Lieutenant L. E. Herrick, D.S.C.,R.N. (Hastings), is named in an Ad-

miralty communique as being oneof 10submarinecommanders who have sunk13 and damaged seven Axis ships inthe Mediterranean.

NOTES ON THE WARALLIED AIR BLITZBATTLE OF THE RUHRThe Allied air blitz on Western and

Southern Europe continues with in-creased intensity. . The devastationwrought is admitted in Axis quartersto be terrible, but? Allied air losses arecausing some comment, especially mAmerica.

The American commentators Ray-mond Gram Swing and Paul Schubertboth, in their broadcast last night, dealtwith the air blitz and laid stress' ontwo points raised in yesterday's notes,the difficulty, of. reaching German warindustries in Saxony, Silesia, Bqhemia,Moravia, and Eastern Poland, and thecost of the air offensive to the Alliesin men and machines. The gist of.their argument was that the issuewhetherihe Axis could be bombed intosubmission was still■' undecided. Gerr.many seems definitely to have taKen ,up-the challenge and the air defencesof the Ruhr in anti-aircraft fire andnight fighters are being continually-strengthened. Both Ii.A.F. mgntbombers and American Fortress daybombers are finding the oppositionstronger. • Where the opposition ,isweak, as in the southern area of AxisEurope, the task is much easier andthe losses almost negligible. The ex*perience of the Lancasters which flewto North Africa, bombing Friedrichs-hafen on the way,, and back to Britain,delivering a load on Spezia' en route,'all without loss, seems to show thatthe losses sustained in bombing west-ern Germany are mostly incurred onthe way home. The enemy may notknow where the outwafrd-bound-bomb-ers are going, but they certainly knowwhither they are returning.No Easy Victory.

Hanson Baldwin, in a dispatch dated ,April 19 to the "New York Times"from London on his way home from"North Africa, discussed the wholesituation, as it was then, at length. Hesaid "a great and possibly decisivestage of the air war is now openingand upon its outcome will depend thewar's duration." He continue:;:

"German fighter strength is increas-ing in Western-Europe and now thereare considerable swarms cf Focke-Wulf 190's—probably the best all-roundfighter planes—availableto oppose ourday-bombing raids. Large numbers ofnight-fighters prowl the skies to headoff night assaults by the R.A.F. More-over, German anti-aircraft guns, whichreach high altitudes with considerableaccuracy,"are an important element inthe strong German defence. . . . De-spite the fact that Germany is spreadthin in the air and the fact that herair strength relative to that of theAllies is on the down^ grade, the sirbattle in Western Europe will not bewon easily. Though more German airstrength is concentrated in Russia than 'on any other front (this was in April),it will take far larger numbers of Al-lied planes than those now availableto beat down the German air force in '•Western Europe and' soften the indus-trial core of the 'fortress.' \ . . Thelarge Allied bomber losses illustratethe problem. It is clear that final vic-tory in the air war, like the finalvictory in the sea and land war, willnot come easily."! The one step that would greatly in-crease the effectiveness of the Alliedair offensive and reduce the losseswould be the securing, of bases insouthern- and eastern Europe—in Italyand the Italian islands, in the.Balkans,and in Western Axis-occupied Russia—from which the now inaccessiblevital industrial Axis targets in theareas previously mentioned could bereached and dealt with, by "shuttle"raids, if necessary. To attain thesebases sea and land operationsmust beundertaken, after air preparation.Thus, one comes round to the old argu-ment that warfare is indivisible andthat to win one must use all the armsavailable in their proper proportions,each according to its function, at theright time."

LABOUR'S CHANCESAUSTRALIAN ELECTION

(Special P.A. Correspondent.)SYDNEY, June 25.

The controversy raging around theMinister of Labour, Mr. E. J. Ward,now relieved of his duties pending aRoyal Commission of Inquiry, is likelyto become a vital issue at the comingelections.

Opposition members are reported tobelieve that the Government record ofpolitical unrest, and the bad tacticalposition into which Mr. Ward has beenmanoeuvred, will help them at theelections. Labour, on .the other hand,is pinning its hope to its administra-tion of the war, and will claim thecredit for the great improvement inAustralia's defence position.

The Senate vote will be vital in thecoming elections.

At present the Government -has 17Senators to the Opposition's 19. Four-teen Labour Senators and only fiveOpposition Senators, must go to thepolls. For Labour to receive .a major-ity all the retiring 14 Labour Senatorsmust be returned, and at least two newLabour Senators must be. elected.Labour must, therefore, win everyState—which most political correspon-dents consider veryunlikely.

In the House of RepresentativesLabour gained four seats at the Federalelections in 1940. Labour believes itcan win more seats in New SouthWales, and that it may pick up an oddseat in the other States. The Opposi-tion parties feel they can consolidatetheir position in other States and re-gain some of their lost ground in NewSouth Wales.It is expected that 4,500,000 electors

will vote. The Government's decisionto hold the election also means that theBill to provide unemployment and sick-ness benefits will not be introduced inthis Parliament. Mr. Curtin will makethe Bill's proposal a feature of hispolicy speech.

Thea-emainderof the Territorial Force willbe held 6n" a non-mobilised basis, thepersonnel being required to performtraining "arid be kept in a state ofreadiness' for remobilisation shouldthe necessity arise.

"The personnel for the non-mobilisedportion of the Territorial Army will bedraw.n. from men in the followingclasses.'-^ »•. •,

"(a,) Single men and married men■without children of medical grades Iand II between the ages of 18 and 40inclusive^ : ' *"(b) Matfied men with not more thanthree children, grades I and II betweenthe ages] of 18 and 30 inclusive.

"In selecting these- men regard willbe paid toihe individual circumstancesof each 'man, including particularly:—

sonnel is to be one month in campand two whole day parades eachmonth.

"Youths of J8 years of age becomingliable for service in non-mobilisedunits will be required to undergo onemonth's recruit-training in camp be-,fore being posted to a unit.

Those not mobi-lised will, of course, not be .orderedinto camp until they are made avail-able to the Army by the National Ser-vice Department, i.e., after any ap-peals have, been disposed: of.

' THE HOME GUARD.."It is considered that the military

situation does not necessitate the pre-sent intensive training and degree ofreadiness of the Home Guard, andit is now possible to give considerablerelief to this large body of men, whohave been animated by a splendidspirit of service and have displayedgreat enthusiasm in their training. ■

"It has therefore been decided that.the Home Guard can now be allotted areserve role as from July 1.,

"In every respect the Home Guardwill, retain, its identity and organisa-tion. A reduced staff will be retained,and all uniforms, personal equipment,and rifles will .remain on issue1 to theHome Guardsmen, so that units will beready to resume full-scale training ifthis should be necessary. ■

ONE FULL-DAY PARADE."Members of the Home Guard will

be required to attend one compulsoryiull-daj parade of six hours everyquarter. ■ ' ' ' \ :

"At these parades, rolls and equip-ment will be inspected and checked,the remainder of.the time being de-voted to the carrying out of an annualmusketry course.

"To encourage Home Guardsmen toimprove their shooting ah issue ofammunition will be made to units forvoluntary additional range practices.

"Now that training has been reduced,it is desired*that all units—especiallyin the cities and, the laiger towns-will continue active in the interests ofthe national war effort in such direc-tion as may be required from 'time totime, particularly in organised work, for the' production of foodstuffs in theforthcoming season."

WOOL PRICES

8i PER CENT. TO COMEA summary'of the appraisal returns

so:fax' received showed that the valuesof wool, clips as assessed'by the 'ap-praisers had been low in comparisonwith the. average sale prices to whichthe growers were entitled under theGovernment purchase agreement, theMinister of Marketing and Agriculture(Mr. Barclay)- said last night.

"Growers are aware," said the Min-ister, "that at the commencement ofthe present season, 10 per cent, of ap-praisal prices was held in reserve by:the Marketing Department, and of thispercentage half was to be paid in theform of non-transferable Governmentstock, and the remaining half held tocover the possible contingency of ap-praisal prices proving on the finalcheck-up to be > above the purchaseprice possible under the agreement. Onthis occasion, for various reasons, theappraisal prices.have been found to beapproximately.3J per cent, below thepurchase price, -and therefore thegrower will receive not.only the 5 percent, which was held in reserve, butalso the additional 3£. per cent. Thiswill mean that • when the MarketingDepartment makes its final adjustmentpayment in August, the grower Willreceive a final payment in cash of ap-proximately 8J ocr cent. •ENCOURAGING THE LOAN.

"Concerning the portion it was pro-posed to pay in the form of non-nego-tiable wool deferred payment stockthe' Government has decided to en-courage and facilitate subscriptions tothe Third Liberty Loan by giving woolgrowers the right to take up theamount due to them in any of theforms of negotiable securities now onoffer," continued the Minister. He saidthat if any grower would prefer tohave inscribed stock in terms of theprospectus he should write immedi-ately to the Secretary of the Treasuryto advise him whether 2£ per cent,stock or 3 per cent, stock ordinary ordeath duty was preferred. Full par-ticulars of these securities could be ob-tained from any post office, bank, orstock exchange broker.

In cases where^no notification wasreceived by the Treasury, five-yearNational Savings Bonds with interestcompounded at approximately 3 percent, would be issued in time for in-clusion of the figures .in the Third.Liberty Loan. Wool growers who sodesired might also have the fullamount of the final adjustment pay-ment of approximately 8£ per cent, is-sued to them in the form of war loansecurities when settlement was madeby the Marketing Department inAugust. Growers who wished to as-sist the war effort by adopting thiscourse should advise the Secretary ofthe Treasury accordingly. .

"A further matter perturbing woolgrowers." said the Minister, "is uncer-tainty as to how the 15 per cent, addi-tional receipts from wool is to be .dealtwith next season. I am able to. saythat such receipts will be dealt within the same way as for this season, in-cluding part-payment in war loansecurities in place of non-negotiable

deferred payment stock."

CASE OF DERMATITIS

COMPENSATION AWARDEDIn April last year a Gazette'notice

was published which included derma-titis among the industrial diseases forwhich compensation is payable by em-ployers, and recently a case came be-fore the Compensation Court pittingin Wellington in which compensationwas claimed on this ground.

The plaintiff was Monica May Dur-ling. and she was employed by> Alco,Ltd, Wellington, in the manufacture,of gloves. She, with seven other women jworkers at the same factory, contracteddermatitis at the beginning of Aprillast year, the disability in her case be-ing much more serious than in ' theothers and having persisted until theipresent time Through her counsel. MrR. R Scott she claimed compensationfrom her employers

For the defence. Mr A. B Buxton•ontendeel that ;is th:1 disease was con-•r-K-trd a few dnys before the orderwas gazetted rhe plaintiff was .not en-\:gp.d in an'employment to which theAct applied Mr Justice OT.egan.-lowevsr, held that this argument wasun-tenable and that the plaintiff's rightscould not be affected by the publica-tion of the Order in Council in theGazette some days subsequent to theinitial appearance of the malady. Ac-cordingly, it followed that she wasentitled in the meantime to accruedcompensation amounting to £112 10s,45 weeks at £2 10s a week, and costs.Final judgment as to the total amountof compensation will be given later,when the plaintiff has fully recovered.-

COLLAPSE OF SPANWHIROKINO BRIDGE

STATEMENT BY MINISTER"The uninjured marine in the jeep

which went into, the river has nowadmitted that he crashed into one ofthe main struts, of the bridge," said theMinister of Works (Mr. Semple) lastnight when referring to the • recentcollapse of a- span of ;the W.hirokinoBridge- near Foxton '-recently.

Mr. Semple said1 he had instructed)the Main Highways-Board,to make athorough investigation into, the causeof the/collapse.■ The .collapsed spanwas': being.; salvaged' for that" purpose.When .the jeep into: the strutit caused the span/to collapse,and thejeep and its occupants were carriedinto.thfeTiver<as~it;fell. ■■ . ,

An examination of the portions ofthe span so far recovered had shownthat the timber, was-in as good orderas could be expected from the. age ofthe bridge, and there was 119.evidencetp. show:that .lack of- maintenance inany way contributed towards the col-lapse. The bridge had been regularlyinspected since it-was taken over fromthe county in 1937, and defective tim-bers had ■been replaced where neces-sary. ■ The • last inspection was ■madeon-May 28, a few days before the acci-dent on June 3. The bridge had beenconsidered-unsuitable from a trafficpoint of view for many years, and hadit not been. for the -.war., would. ..havebeen replaced by. a .reinforced concretebi'idge.-

NO TEMPORARY USE.1 After■-the' collapse ,it.had been pro-posed to put a temporary, span.acrossand '-use the bridgeVagain. It was felt,however, that no further risks shouldbe "taken with it, and instructions hadbeen-given that-a new bridge was tobe constructed as quickly as possible.A contract had already been let, andthe was getting; men andplant oh to the job. The work wouldbe pushed with the utmost expedition.

The condition of the timber bridg-ing' still remaining oh the, highwayshad been giving both the Minister .andthe Main Highways Board,much con-cern, and before1 the outbreak of warevery effort was being made to replacethem as quickly as possible. The factthat over 70,000. lineal feet, or morethan thirteen miles; of. modern rein-forced concrete' bridges had been con-structed since 1936 gave some ideaof the efforts made. The programmeof reconstruction would again be putin hand as soon as the supply of man-power, materials, and plant would al-low. In the.meantime the public couldrest. assured that careful pexlodic in-spections of old timber bridges werebeing made, and their maintenancewas being, kept" up to as high a stan-dard as possible.' Even the most care-ful inspections would :not always re-veal some hidden' defect in an oldtimber bridge, and the public wereearnestly, requested to observe loadrestrictions carefully.' r

ARMY TRAFFIC.Heavy Army traffic had created some

problems,- and many of the old bridgesihad had* to-be strengthened. The:drivers of-Army vehicles were particu-!larly requested to comply strictly withload restrictions. • ,

It was noticed that according tonewspaper reports some of the localbodies in the vicinity of the bridge,without waiting for,any. evidence, im-mediately attributed the collapse tolack at -maintenance; The chairmanof one county referred to heavy ArmyItraffic and stated that, in his opinion,the span had just'slipped with thecontinuous weight, and the state of

Ithe timber, and then collapsed. Sucha statement was to say the least illadvised when the chairman must haveknown -that an investigation would beimmediately made, and he had ho evi-dence whatever to support his state-ment. '

STARTED A LOTTERYA raffle :to assist a working men's

organisation at Karori resulted in Mrs.Elizabeth McGowan,of Shirley Street,being charged at 'the. Magistrate'sCourt yesterday • with starting a lot-tery. The prize was a Christmas ham-per, and the police said the defendantdid not realise that. ?ho required'authority from' the Minister of In-ternal Affairs.. She ordered 500 booksof tickets from ' Universal PrintingProducts, Ltd., and when she foundthat the raffle was.illegal* she promptlywithdraw the tickets and refunded themoney. The. offence, it was stated, hadbeen committed' in ignorance. Thedefendant was fined £2 and costsby Mr. J. L. , Stout, S.M. Theprinting company was'fined the mini-mum amount of £5 for failing to putits name on the tickets. Mr. E. S.Parry, who appeared for both defend-ants, said the offences were quite un-connected. The company did not knowthat the tickets were to be used ille-gally, and the omission to put thename on was an oversight due to pres-sure of work and shortage of experi-enced staff.

PLATES AND STICKERSDEPARTMENT'S PROFITS

With reference to the■ discussionwhichrecently took place at the meet-ing of the North Island. Motor Unionabout the charge made for car licencestickers, Mr. E. A. Batt, chairman ofthe1executive of the' Wellington Auto-mobile Association, said today, that hehad gone into the whole question ofthe charges made.by thePost,and Tele-graph .Department for licence platesand stickers fx-om. 1924, to. the present.

"The most-recent complaint aboutthe exorbitant charge" is: a repetitionof complaints made over a period ofyears," he said. "However, it is ofconsiderable interest to motor vehicleowners throughout New Zealand- toknow what revenue has been securedby the Post and Telegraph Depart-ment for the services provided in theregistration and licensing of motorvehicles. .

'.'The Motor Vehicles Act became ef-fective in 1924, and in that year99,233vehicles were registered. Registrationsrose to the highest peak in 1939-40,when 317,526 vehicles were regis-tered.

"It should be stated at the cutsetand to avoid confusion, that under theAct the Post and Telegraph Depart-ment'is entitled to receive from theMain Highways Board Is 6d, for eachvehicle registered or licensed and foreach" transferof a vehicle,and.that thisamount was determined as a fair pay-ment . for all work involved. In, thisway the Department received, from1924 to 1942, approximately £392,557,or an average of £21,809 per annum.

"But despite this enormousrevenue,which ho doubt far exceeded the anti-cipations of the authorities, it is foundthat' motor vehicle owners haye dur-ing the same period paid £454,092 forinumber plates which cost the Depart-ment £208,750, the difference betweenthese two amounts being a profit of£245,342,an average of £13,630 perannum. This in turn represents' a pro-fit of 117 per cent, on the cost of thenumber plates. . ."Tlfe Post- and Telegraph Depart-ment has- therefore received for itsservices, from 1924 to 1942, a total of£637,899,or an average of £35,439perannum."

Motorists had through their .associa-tions repeatedly made requests for areduction in the prices of numberplates, the average cost of which tothe Department had" been 11Jd for aset of two, but fdr .which the depart-ment had made a charge of 2s 6d to thevehicle owner, until, as a result of re-peated representations, the charge wasreduced to 2s a set, continued ' Mr.Batt. In the year 1942-43 windscreenstickers were used instead of number-plates, and there again it was foundthat though these stickers had cost theDepartment £4222,they were sold for£7466, a profit to the Department of£3244. . .' .

"The foregoing indicates quite clear-ly that the Government should reviewthe cost to motor vehicle owners with tthe object of making a substantial re-duction in the charge for tokens oflicensing," said Mr. Batt. "It is obvi-ous that the Post and Telegraph De-partment is enjoying a verysubstantialsurplus over and above the cost of theservice it renders, and is enjoying arate of profit on goods sold which noprivate trader wouM be permitted bythe Price- Tribunal, and this on top ofthe revenue assured, of Is 6d for eachregistration and transfer, paid by tlieMain Highways Board." ' '

WOULDN'T KILL A RATPA. ' AUCKLAND, June 25.Much was heard of rats, and poisonsin the■ Magistrate's Court today whenGeorge Aubrey Hatch, manufacturer,was charged before Mr. J. H. Luxford,S.M., that, with intent to defraud heattempted on March 26 to obtain 2s 6dfrom another man by 'falsely represent-ing . that a certain mixture containedpoison-and-would kill rats. ; The pre-paration-was called "Rat-a-Fix.'1 TheMagistrate, after hearing the evidence,said that the defendant's "explanationwas unsatisfactory and fined, him £10.

The police evidence showed thatcomplaints had been made about therat preparation, and the Health Depart-ment made inquiries. An investiga-tion showed there was, no poison in it.When Hatch was questioned, he saidrats would not be affected unless theygot water afterwards. The Govern-ment analyst,' Mr. K. .M. Griffin, saidhe examined the preparation and feda rat on ;tfqr'five, days without itssuffering ill effects. Hatch in evidencesaid he had been dealing in rat poisonsfor 25 years..Fat and phosphorus wereused in ''Rat-a-Fix.''

WAR EXPENSESMR. DOIDGE'S PLEA

AN EXAMINING COMMITTEE ISupport for the proposal of the

Le.ader of the Opposition (Mr. Holland):ithat a select, committee "should beappointed, to examine: the War Ex-;penses ]A.ccbunt. was expressed by Mr.F. W. Doidge (National, Tauranga) inthe House of Representatives, speakingin the debate on an Imprest Supply;Bill yesterday.' . .. , , j

Mr. Doidge said people always as-1sumed that members of Parliament jwere familiar with all the items of!expenditure, but that was;not■ the. caseas. far as the War Expenses Accountwas concerned. The.House of Com-1mons had a committeeof the kind pro-1posed, and the Prime Minister (Mr.IFraser) had said on one or two occa-sions that he was favoui-able to some-!thing of the-kind. The public wereaware that large sums of money werebeing spent ..and that the war wascosting something', like . £150,000.000ayear. The previous war had cost lessthan £100,000,000 for, four years. Itseemed that it was costing thirty timesas much to maintain .-the war effortgenerally than to maintain the forcesin the Middle East. He thought theexplanation' was that. Ministers wereinclined to use war expenses funds forpurposes other than for war.

GIFT TO BRITAIN?Referring to the War Damage In-

surance Fund, Mr. Doidge mentioneda suggestion that'had been made thaj;the £4,000,000 in hand should bedonated to Great Britain for recon-struction oi damaged homes. He saidthat Canada had donated one thou-sand million dollars in 1942 to Britainfor munitions, raw.materials, and food-stuffs. New Zealand's Prime Ministerhad suggested that when the war wasover we should send food to Greece.He was behind the Prime Minister inthat proposal, but he did not thinkthat there should be a delay untilthe war was over. . New ' Zealandshould follow the example of Canada,which'was sending 15,000 tons of wheata month to famine-stricken Greece.Something should also be done for thegallant little island•of Malta.

MINISTER'S REPLY. '■ The Minister of: Finance (Mr. Nash)reminded Mr. Doidge that the■>Leaderof the Opposition• had -formerly beenin charge of war expenditure, and[that, this task was still-in'the handsof a--member on the Opposition side.He. did mot; consider.that ai commit-tee ,of i investigation could .do,effectivework, as the. members would need totravel all the time. When" there wasifear of invasion waste in expenditurewas inevitable but this was quicklypicked up.

GAOL FOR ASSAULTWOMAN INJURED WITH GLASS

Picking up a glass at a party in ToryStreet, last evening, Norman DarcyBryden, labourer, 49, threw it.at an-other man but missed. The * glass-struck an elderly woman, Mrs. MaryEllen Ryan, and caused a severe gashin the back of her head, requiring sev-eral stitches. Bryden was chargedin the Magistrate's Court today withassault and was sentenced to onemonth's hard labour by Mr. J. L. Stout,S.M.: SenioivSergeant G. Paine said thatthe accused was a boarderat the house,where a more or less drunken partywas held last evening. Everyone wasunder the• influence of liquor. ■ Anargument started' and Bryden threw aglass containing' beer, striking an -oldwoman on the head. .

Police evidence was that blood waspouring from the wound and 'brokenglass was oh the floors- Bryden ad-mitted throwing the glass, but main-tained all the time that he had notdeliberately assaulted the woman. Hehad thrown the glass at a man.

The Magistrate said that the accusedhad meant to hit someone with theglass, which was an illegal act, andalthough he might not' have intendedto hit the woman his action made himliable. The woman herself wanted!him charged, so shennust have thoughtJhe meant it. ' Bryden did not have agood record. ■ " ,

HOUSE PRICES

TALK OF CONTROLControl overinflated prices of dwell-ings ought to be considered as well as

control over land prices, stated theMinister of Finance (Mr. Nash) in theHouse of. Representatives yesterday.He admitted that the procedure mightbe difficult. There was a tremendousshortage of houses, and people withmore money than they knew how tospend would pay £1800 for a housereally worth only. £1200. Should theyallow, a person-who. knew his housewas worth-the. smaller sum to takeanother £600 out of the community?asked the Minister. The abnormalsituation ought to be taken into ac-count and the price should not bebased on that factor. .

Mr. D. C. Kidd (National, Waitaki):Does the Minister realise that peoplewho got money cut off their ■ mortgageiare selling out at high prices?Mr. Nash replied that if" they had jtaken money away from men who hadloaned it, this was grossly unfair, ir-respective of the fact that a five-yearlimitation might prevent further re-adjustment The man who sold- athigh prices should refund reducedmortgages whether there was a legalIobligation or not.

THE HOME GARDENORNAMENTAL SHRUBS

(By "Sandy.")In the garden calendar there is a

time for planting spring floweringbulbs, a time for planting potatoes, atime for planting dahlias;in fact, thereis a season for all the major items thatgo to make up a garden. The presentis the time when ornamental shrubsclaim attention. 'Most gardens contain shrubs or treesof some kind either for effect ortitility, and it is a fact that shrub plant-ing is always going on even with thosewho have a fair collection already.Replacements have to be made bysome, a place has to be made for someplant that has a special appeal, some-thing new must be added to the col-lection, and so it seems that everyownerof a garden must sooner or laterhave shrubs of different kinds tohandle. This is interesting work, fornaturally to set them off properlysomewhatdifferenttreatment has to beaccorded to each type. Quite apartfrom the fact that some do better incertain positions in the garden thanthey would do in others, success orfailure is determined by the way theplant is actually set in the ground.

Most evergreens come done up in away which is described as "balled,"which means that the roots are en-closed in soil held firmly about themwith scrim or similar material. Otherplants, mainly deciduous, ones, havetheir roots covered with damp straw,either singly or in bundles, and othersare in paper pots, having been grown«n ordinary clay pots and just trans-ferred to the paper variety for con-venience in handling. The foregoingare the types referred to that require,differing methods of handling when,transplanting to their permanent posi-tions in the.garden.

The "balled" plant-is' perhaps theeasiest to handle—in the hands of theamateur anyway—for little, more than,ordinary care is needed in planting it.It has been "balled" for two reasons,that it would be harmful for the rootsof that particular■plant to be exposed,and secondly that the root system isbrittle. Such plants should be plantedwithout the soil about the roots beingdisturbed. ' Remove the scrim, butplant the ball intact. It is wise,especially when the soil is dry, to soakthe plant before setting it. Later inthe season, when the scrim about theroots is partially decayed and newroots are protruding throush it, thebest plan is to set the plant withoutremoving the scrim, first soaking it.and cutting through the ties.

The deciduous plant that comes "un-balled,!' that is without soil about itsroots, requires more preparation forplanting. The heavy roots that.havebeen damaged during lifting operationsshould be .cut bacjt.to remove,the dam-aged ends. "A.-root,when cut ;cleanlywith aktlife or; secateurs will quicklycallous and foVm new rootlets fromits extremity,' whereas if left raggedit will rot and hinder the establish-ment of the.plant. The.tops of suchplants should; be reduced in height torestore in a measure the balance be-tween top and root. This is under-stood by most wherefruit trees or rosesare concerned, ._ but is frequentlyneglected with other deciduous orna-mentals, such, as viburnums or For-sythias. The correct depth at whichto plant is sometimes a puzzle, but asafe' guide is to have the uppermostfibrous roots some three,inches belowthe surface. The roots should be soplaced in the soil that they assume anatural growing position, pointing out-wards and downwards. It takes sometime to. do this carefully with a bigplant, but the time spent brings itsreward in the.form of quick androbust growth. If roots are bundledtogether by carelessness in plantingtheplant is seriously handicappedfromthe s^art; in fact it may never grow,satisfactorily. . -The pot-grown plant,-and there aremany that are' grown this way, callsfor somewhat different treatmentfromthe foregoing. These plants when wellestablished will be found to have theirroots somewhat cramped through run-ning around the inside, of the pot inwhich they were grown. The mainrootgt <sh6uld be untwined a little anddirected outwards into the soil that isreturned to the hole that has been pre-pared;ior them.. Strong rooting sub-jects such as gums or wattles should.be treated in this way "but others-that:have.!'little' root showing on the out-side, of the ball can be planted with-out being disturbed.

Whatever the- plant may be, orwhatever the type, firm planting mustalways-be carried out, rememberingthat the roots, t0... be able to resumetheir functions, must be in close con-tact' with the soil. For . successfultransplanting the soil must be in aworkable condition; the work cannotbe carried out as it should be whenthe ground is excessively? wet.

ENTERTAINMENTSPARAMOUNT THEATRE.

•Fine acting, and a fine story combine to,nakc "Shining Victory," which has returnedto the Paramount Theatre, a picture of notablequality. The story is unusual, and it risesto the dramatic heights that one would expectof the author of "The Citadel." It is the storyof the love of two women 'for one man:—onea doctor, the other a private secretary. Theman is a research worker in. the; realms ofpsychiatry,- and his- assistant is a. womangraduate« fresh from college.-Tho backgroundto the -story is'at"times' rather-bizarre, bnt thepicture fascinates, right up to the final climax.The acting of James Stephensoii' i& outstanding,and ho is ably supported by Gcraldtne Fitz-gerald, Barbara CNeil, and Donald Crisp. Asupporting picture "is'"Women in War," whichstars Wendy .:Barrie. and Colin Tnpley.

OE LUXE THEATRE.Action in plenty is provided for theatregoers'

xt the De- Luxe Theatre, where the two Mainfeatures are"Sin Town" and "WreckingCrew.'' Much in the tradition of "Boom Town"and equally/virile' and rugged,. "Sin Town" isset in the oilfields of .Texas and Oklahoma, inthe early days of" its gushers and boorii towns,with their confidence, men, gay women, high-pressure share salesmen, "and .the; generalfeverish atmosphere associated with that period.The "story:motes fast and excitingly, and it isinterpreted by a cast which throws itself into,the' j6b.' Constance..'Bennett, Brod Crawford,Patric Knowles,'Anne Gwynne, Leo Carillo',«nd Andy Devine are the leading players, andwin fresh laurels for'their work. "WreckingCrew," starrjng Richard Arlen.,Chester Mor-ris, Jean Parker, and Evelyn Brent, lives upto the promise of its title, and .is .thrillingentertainment. . Another instalment of "JuniorG-men of the Air" is also on the bill.. ''■ TIVOLI THEATRE.

r~"~ If the iwordll —)IBIBLEI £ l^l TRUTH

"SIMEON HATH DECLARED HOW GODAT THE FIRST DID VISIT THE GEN-TILES TO TAKE OUT OF THEM APEOPLE FOR HIS NAME." (Acts 15:14.)

WHEN the Gospel was first preached weread that It was preached "to none but

unto the Jews only" (Acts 11:10, Matt. 15:24,Matt. 10:5-0). It is. clear, however, from theNew Testament that it was the Divine inten-tion that the preaching of the Gospel of sal-vation should be extended to the Gentile* Thusbefore Christ left the earthi He'commandedHis disciples to "Go into ALL THE WORLDaud preach the Gospel to every creature (Mane16:10, Eph. 3:6, Acts 13:46, Acts 28:26-28).This they duly did so that the Apostle Paullater was able to write that the Gospel hadbeen "preached to every creature which isunder Heaven" (Cols. 1:23). It should bo un-derstood, however, that it was not tho Divineintention that mankind would be saved en masseor that tho world would be converted as aresult of the preaching of the Gospel. Norwas it the Divine intention that tho Gospelshould be preached for the purpose of fillingHeaven with fictional immortal souls. lneDivine intention in turning to the Gentileswas simply to "TAKE OUT OF THEM a peoplefor His Name" (Acts 15:11). In other wordsto provide Jesus Christ with the required num-ber of 00-rulors when He returns to reign onearth (Rev. 2:2G-27, Rev. 0:9-10, 1 Cor. 6:2,2 Tim 2:12, Matt. 10:28. Rev. 20:0, James1-IS. Rev. 11:1-1). Nothing is more clearlytaught in the Scriptures than the tact thatJesus Christ is coming back to establish aWorld-Wide Kingdom on earth—the Kingdomof God (Acts X:ll, Acts 3-.19-21 Rev. 19-15,Rev. H:ls, Matt. 6:10, Acts 17:31, Isa. 9:0-<,Dan. 7:14, Zcch. 14:9). It follows that in theadministration of this Kingdom Jesus Christwill require a host of co-rulers. . These co-rulers, somo of whom will have "authorityover ten cities," others "over five" (Luke 19 :17----19) will be those of all generations who havebeen "TAKEN OUT" by the preaching of theGospel. Resurrected from the dead and immor-talised they will constitute, with Jesus Christ,the Divine "NAME" on tho earth in the com-ing Millennial age. (Rev. 3:12, Rev. 14:1,Luke 20:35-3C, Phil. 3:21, 1 John 3:2, 2 Pet.1 "4 )

Reader, it is clear from the Scriptures thatthose "taken out" arc those who believe theGospel (i.e., "the things concerning the King-dom of God and the Name of Jesus Christ(Acts 8:12, Acts 28:30-31), and who thereafter

! are baptised into the sin-covering Name ofJesus Christ (Gals. 3:27-29). For further en-lightenment concerning this vital subject youshould read the book „ ~ „

SPORTINGUNLUCKY IN DRAW

r COMPULSORY DEFECTIONS(By "Binocular")

Owners of horses Irom both nearandfar shared in the bad luck that cameas a result of the compulsory drawfor the Whyte Handicap, the WoburnHack Handicap, Snd the Te Aro HackHandicap at the Wellington Meeting. |If was the irony of things that'Boulder Dam, Foxlore • Flying jHawk, Lotto, and Indian Sport werej

compulsory defections from the bigimile, and it now remains to beseen whether the owners of theseihorses who have to come fromjafleld will make the trip for one day's

'racing. And that is conditional on[their surviving a draw for the secondiday. Two northerners, Taku Kara

'and Mr. Chips, were sufferers in theWoburn Hack Handicap, and RoyalBrief is already on the way here fromInvercargill without any prospect ofracing 'on.'the'opening1-day. Possiblyhad the closing of acceptances beendelayed till Tuesday the position mighthave been different, for after today'sracing a+ Hastings the plans of someowners'm«#'- undergo amendment.

Hushed Up.—Going down the backstretch in the Manawatu Winter CupNoble Fox raced forward.to be handyto the leaders as they swung acrossthe top, but the Foxbridge horse fail-ed to go oh with it. It would appearas though a mile will always ,be hisfavourite distance, though he has wonover 10 furlongs around the "smalls.

Sound Race.—A four-year-old daugh-ter of Ringmaster and the Limond—Drastic mare Severe, who was quitea good performer for one of herinches, Minko has placed only ,*onesuccess to" her credit this term. How-ever, she .ran1 quite a good fourth in

the. Ruahine Hack Handicap No. 1 atthe Manawatu Meeting, and tins mem-ber of H: E. Gray's Takanini teammight annex some stake-money beforeshe returns home. 'On Up Grade.—As at the WanganuiMeeting Broiveine was putting m herbest work in the' closing stages of theFirst Ruahine Hack Handicap at Avva-puni. She should mould into a stayer.

Late Riur—Opaltbwn went some waybefore winning a race, but he beat amodest lot in the Gisborne Hurdles atPoverty Bay in April. However,■judged by the manner in which hecame-home.at Awapuni another hurdleevent.should come his way before°HSdnesfc Sort.—Sir Waimai ran an

honest race in the big steeples at Awa-puni without being able to do better,than'-third. This Te Rapa gelding wasa winner in the lower ranks on thesecond ,-day.1 at: Ellerslie after -havingrun third on the opening day and thirdat the Waikato Meeting earlier, and.he appears to be improving all thetime. That other northerner GarVaals was in ,the picture for a goodly-portion of.the'journey, but■ then. tired.

Pulled Up.—That usually free goer,Native.Chief, .returned to hurdling mthe Raiigitira Hurdles at Manawatu,but was kept in behind on this occa-sion and. he never; looked dangerousunder his. 11.8 in the heavy going. TheKincardine gelding was pulled upwithin sight of home.. ■ ~Weakened.—Being by Hunting Songfrom a Day Comet mare it wasonly to be expected that HuntingComet would be at • home in heavygoing. He made a bold showing mthe Ngata Hurdles at Awapuni, it beingonly over the last furlong and a halfthat he commenced to weaken.
