use these methods to further reduce the recovery in the deflected nail.
Lt. Gen. Lucius D. Clay, deputy American military governor, said much of the economic paralysis now gripping Germany traces directly to the French refusal to join with the other occupation powers in treating Germany as a single economic unit.
Washington. (UP)—The War deparment today awaited a report by Lt. Gen. Robert Richardson, commander of the Hawaiian theater, on the return to the United States of low-point football players.

Over-Caution Gave Tip-Off on A-Bomb

Nazi Admits Polish War Incidents 'Faked'
Nuernberg. (UP) — The No. 2 man of the German counter-intelligence service testified today that the Nazi war criminals faked the incidents used as a pretext for the war on Poland by dressing up concentration camp prisoners in Polish uniforms.
The inside picture of the Nazi world was told for the first time by Maj. Gen, Edwin Lahousen, chief assistant to Admiral Wilhelm Canaris, head of the German counter-intelligence service.
Lahousen's testimony sent the 20 war crime defendants into panic and rage. At the luncheon recess Hermann Goering snorted that Labouens ought to be "lynched" and Joachim Vib Rinbert nervously muttered, "What shall I do? What shall I do?"
Lahousen said Ribbentrop told him that a directive had been issued to arrange for Ukrainian groups to rise against the Poles in the Polish Ukraine and exterminate both Poles and Jews.
The uprising must be so arranged that all the Polish houses in the region were burned down, Ribbentrop was quoted as saying.
"Some time in August, 1939," Lahousen said, "The counter-intelligence section was ordered to hand over Polish uniforms and identification tags to Heinrich Himmel."
Lahousen said that when the first pullover about Polish attacks on German villages were published — the pretext Hitler used for attacking the Poles — “it became clear what the uniforms had been used for.”
He said that prisoners had been taken from concentration camps, dressed in Polish uniforms and directed to attack the Glauwitz radio station.
'It All Comes Back To Me Now"—Hess
Nuernberg, (UP) — Rudolf Hess testified from the war crimes witness stand today that his pretense of amnesia and insanity was a hoax and that he was quite competent and ready to go ahead with his own trial.
His counsel, preceding Hess in a hearing for which the courtroom was cleared of the other Nazi defendants, pleaded that his client's claim to mental fitness was a part of the quirks of the mind that made him irresponsible.
Despite Hess' melodramatic assertion from the stand that his purported loss of memory was faked, the international tribunal withheld an immediate ruling on his mental condition.
The testimony provided a sensational climax to Hess' claims for more than three years that he remembered nothing of his doings as deputy chief of the Nazi party and one of the top-dogs of the Hitler regime.

If You'd Like to See World News Pour In Here's an Invitation
By BETTY JENNINGS
Daily Kansan Telegraph Editor
Clickety-clak, clickety-clak, and 40,000 words roll off the Daily Kansan United Press teletype every day. Just a little curious? All right, here's an open invitation for you to come to the Journalism building and see how this little machine supplies your student paper with complete news coverage from all over the world.
It's really fascinating to watch such datelines as Chungking, Tehran, London, and Manila, come to the newsroom — even Washington can take on a little glamor.
There was the time that shoe ractioning went off—and the story was rushed down to the composing room just before the paper went to press. Result—University students got the Latest News. Hull winning the Nobel prize, the war in China, the political situation in France—it all comes out of the machine and into your paper.
Flashes, bulletins, first leads — they all come over the United Press wire, which, incidentally, is the largest press association in the world. In fact, the Daily Kansan has longer press protection than any other paper in Douglas county to give complete assurance you are getting the last word in news.
Still wonder how it all works out? Why don't you come over and see for yourself? Between classes, during your free hours, drop in at the "Shack" and watch the news come out of the telegraph machine letter by letter, word by word. See how the telegraph editor and her assistants sort and evaluate the news, edit the wire copy, and write headlines for the important stories.
Coming in to see us? We're holding open house. Monday? Fine?
Nothing Can Stop the Air Corps Even at University of Kansas

Dunne Adsit, who piloted a B-24 during his three years in the army air corps, still has his hands at the controls — only this time he's guiding the freshman class instead of an airplane. He entered the University in September and was elected class president in the election Nov. 6.
He was stationed in Wendling, England, with the 578th squadron of the 392nd bombing group for nine months and participated in a number of missions over central Europe. He has the Air medal with three oak leaf clusters, the ETO ribbon with three battle stars, and the Presidential unit citation. He is a member of the Caterpillar club.
Duane entered the army in September, 1942, and received his discharge Oct. 8, three weeks after he entered the University. He attended the University of Missouri in 1943 as part of his army training course.
He is a member of the Men's Glee club, P.S.G.L., and a radio skit presented over KFKU each week. He is circulation manager of Kan Do, publication of the Independent party.
