ENGLISH FIGHTERS PI^AN NEW ATTACKS
Great Britain 1* massing great forces of fighting
men and equipment in Africa in the Far East and in
the Arctic—and London is buzzing with rumors that
England may soon launch an offensive against Ger-
many while the naris are engaged in the toughest task
they have taken on in thl* war an attempted con-
quest of Soviet Russia
The people of Britain are clamoring for something
mere than fierce bombing raid* on Germany and on
nazi-occupied Europe, and censors m London are
permitting word to go out that an attack may be in
the making -despite the defeat* that England suf-
fered in its expediSon* to the aid of France Norway,
and Greece earlier in the war
large British naval and air forces are said to be
mobilizing in the Arctic while British forces in North
Africa have been vastly strengthened in recent weeks,
and some of the finest of the empires troop* have
been concentrated in Malaya Of importance also
are reports of lncre*a|nt unrest among the people of
the conquered nation* of Europe
Strategists point out that Britain ha* three oppor-
tunities for action while Germany U deadlocked In
bloody combat with the Russians Britain might
launch an invasion of Finland to get at the northern
flank of the nazi force* attacking Russia, it could
use North Africa as a spring-board for a drive into
the Near East from the south, and from iu basM in
Malaya and Singapore it could laxh out at Japan,
which already ha* taken over French Indo-Chlna
and now is threatening Thailand, formerly called
Siam
British war leaders naturally are not revealing
thetr plans, and it may be possible for an impending
attack somewhere may divert nazi attention from
Russia in part, but ever since Germany conquered all
of the fliropean continent English experts have talk-
ed of assault* on <erupted land*

nold made a talk down there on "Monopoly and the
South Main theme of Arnold s speech was that for
the last 20 years the industrial east has been exploit-
ing the south and the west as raw material colonies
He paid his respects to capitalist* and labor unions
which by monopolies bju farmers and consumers
from advantages of modern efficiency
"Suppose, he said, "that a list of civilian neces-
sities were selected. Clothes, a minimum standard
house, the essential* of diet, drugs and fuel Suppose
we should say to the consumer* that the government
would do its best with price ceilings on commodities
tn general and in addition aould standardize part a--
ular products and see that they get around at the
lowest available prices
"This would involve, in the case of a suit of clothes,
the use of priorities to aid those who are willing to
manufacture a serviceable article at a low price It
might involve encouragement of the manufacturer
through government financing It would certainly In-
volve elimination of all restraints of trade which stood
m the way of distribution of the minimum standard

then I guess I am just optimistic It hasn't
waned, and it hasn't diminished, not tliat I have been
able to notice I was thinking about this the other
night because I had dinner at the Astor roof where
Will Bradley s band is playing and the Bradley or-
ganization—a very fine one by the way—has plenty
of brass
It isn't that I'm necessarily against brass: it's ,
just this—when they play too loud for some reason
my left arm begins to ache It aches from the
elbow down I don't suppose this makes good sense
But it does ache when I sit in a room where there is
a band with a heavy trombone and trumpet section
and the acccen t is on brass
Bradley had a fine crowd on the floor and at the
tables I do not know him personally but from where
I *at—except when he had a trombone tn his hands
—he seemed shy In fart he seemed embarrassed
Probably when he reads this he will double up witti
