WASHINGTON (UP) — Chair-
man Walter F. Gorg, D., Ga., of
the Senate Foreign Relations Com-
mittee said Saturday night that
Jugoslavia’s rebuff to Germany
will make Japan more than reluc-
tant to attack Britain’s vital life-
line base at Singapore.
“Japan will not make the mis-
take of Italy in assuming an early
termination of the war entirely
favorable to Germany in view of
the events of the last 30 days,'1
George said in an interview.
“The probabilities of an attack
by Japan on Singapore have di-
minisheg rather than increased in
last night warned America of peril from Communists, Nazis,
Defeatists and their dupes but proclaimed that Americans
are transcending partisanship to defend Democracy.
• ....... 11 1 11 1 — ♦ Lashing out at Communists,
Nazis, and the Berlin-Rome-Tokyo
alliance alike, Mr. Roosevelt as-
holds $1,500,000,000 in defense
orders. A strike involving 20,000
emplbyes of the parent Bethe-
hem, Pa., plant was settled during
the week.
The intensified government
action for strike settlements co-
incided with congressional senti-
serted that enemies of Democracy
and their agents or dupes in this
country are attempting to spread
terror in America “to shatter the
confidence of Americans in their
government, and in on another.”
The President summoned all
Americans, whether Democrats,
Republicans or independents, to
rally to the defense of Democracy.
He warned that the task entails
sacrifice—“you have to work
overtime and work harder than
ever before in your life.” He set as
the alternative:
“If our kind of civilization gets
run over, the kind of peace we
seek will become an unattainable
hope."
Sun-tanned and refreshed after
eight days of sunshine at sea, Mr.
Roosevelt spoke by radio to the
nation and the world from the
cabin of the Presidential yacht
Potomac tied up at the dock here.

LONDON. (UP) — A British
war fleet pounded Mediterranean
seas last night hoping to close in
for a death blow upon an Italilan
naval squadron already badly
shattered by the sinking or dam-
aging of probably six warships in
the greatest sea and air engage-
ment of the war.
The big battlewagons of Admir-
al Sir Andrew Cunningham raced
at forced draft in an attempt to
smash almost the final vestige of
Italian naval power before it could
reach the protecting shelter of
shore batteries on the Italian
mainland.
Already, the British reported, in
a sea and air encounter which be-
dominated union. Bel

During the past decade the growth has been so re-
markable that to picture it in one issue of the News
would be a matter of impossibility, so we have with this
issue in a small way brought to your attention some of
this growth. Look anywhere you may and you will
see signs of progress on every hand. The past decade
for Henderson and Rusk County has been one of prog- -
ress in every line of business, but in agriculture and oil
the growth and development has been phenomenal.
Today, after ten years of oil we are facing another
decade with the best prospects for further development
that any country ever had. The forces that have com-
bined to make the past ten years golden years of plenty
, are operating today as never before to usher in a period
