‘GERMANIZATION’
POLICY ASSAILED
1 V-UERNBERG, Feb. 2—(U.PJ
r'many’s “criminal premedita
,, t0 destroy the sovereignty
tl0B -estern European nations was
'-ed by her total annexali°n oi
f.vembourg, French Prosecutor
Faure told the international
crimes tribunal today.
"tL same pattern of “systema
crime’’ and “germanization”
tlC ied out in Alsace-Lorraine,
urknd and Denmark was a plot
. Luxembourg’s freedom
giving every branch of the
Lman government, Faure
C\he prosecutor said special et
. Were made to nazify Luxem
German citizenship was of
«red'the inhabitants. Those who
.fused to pledge allegiance to
Li;ier were either deported or
, t five hundred were sentenced
to death for this reason by emer
gency Gestapo tribunals.
° "As in Alsace-Lorraine,” Faure
told the court, "the Germans at
tempted to extirpate all national
sentiment.” Luxembourgers were
foreed to take Germanized family
and Christian names.
The prosecutor said Luxem
bourg's youth was a particular
target of the nazification program.
Teachers were forced' to read
jlein Kampf, and students were
required to give their professors
the Nazi salute.
Not only Nazi party members,
Faure continued, but German di
plomats. military authorities and
police were involved in the plot to
usurp the sovereign power of Eu
ropean countries.
In Denmark, the prosecutor
charged, the Nazis began their
first efforts to germanize the pop
ulation before the war with prop:
aganda trooper units were estab
lished in South Jutland, slowly
spreading through Denmark. Nazi
financial groups also were cre
ated to gain financial control of
the country.
"Germany sought to establish
the fiction that Denmark was not
an occupied country,” Faure said,
“because she was unable to offer
military resistance to invasion.”
Germany’s diplomatic demands
on Denmark at first were “dis
creet,” he continued, but gradual
ly became more sweeping. They
were climaxed by the Nazi request
that Denmark recall her minister
to Washington, Henrik De Kauf
mam, after signing the 1941 treaty
providing for American bases in
Greenland.

—(U.R)—Marshal Tito, head of the
government formed after the
Yugoslav constituent assembly
adopted a new constitution, told a
joint session of parliament tonight
that Yugoslavia’s relations with
Greece have improved.
Outlining his government’s pro
gram, he expressed determination
to press Yugoslavia’s demands for
territory and reparations frofn
axis enemies, (notably Italy.) He
said some of Yugoslavia’s allies
have misunderstood her need for
reparations. ■
He made no comment on rela
tions with Italy, from which the
Yugoslavs seek territory and re
parations.
The government, Tito said, will
do all possible to get the earliest
possible satisfaction of Yugos
lavia’s claims to Austria, Trieste,
and part of Austraian Carinthia
‘ in the interest of our country.”
Yugoslavia will attempt by al
possible means to obtain sufficient
reparations, he said.
The most important task of his
government will be the reconstruc
tion of wartorn areas.
Tito's reconstructed government
had just taken o$ice.
He will be prime minister and
minister of national defense. Five
communists, two republicans, ar
independent democrat, a demo
crat, a Agrarian socialist and nine

REPUBLICAN CHIEF
PREDICTS VICTORY
DETROIT, Feb. 2.-—(^—Repub
lican National chairman Herbert
Brownell, Jr., predicted here to
day that the party would “take
both Houses” of Congress this fall
“if conidtions improve as much in
the next 60 days as they have in the
past two months.”
He made the prediction at a press
conference following the final ses
sion of a two-day meeting of 12
Mid-Western Republican State
chairmen.
The party’s aim, Brownell said,
is to capture at least the 27 seats
necessary to give it a majority in
the house. It also has ‘hopes” of
getting control of the Senate, he
added, but that this will entail a
‘‘good hard fight.”
Asked whether the Republicans
would make more money available
than in previous off-year elections,
the GOP chairman declined a pre
diction but said they would “have
more workers.”
Brownell said the biggest factor
changing public opinion recently
was President Trumaps’ budget
message, which he said proposed
expepditures “four times as high
as the highest budget during the
Roosevelt administrations.”
The National Republican plat
form will be revised uefore the
fall campaign, he said, in line with
suggestions offered by the Mid
West State chairmen and other
similar groups throughout the
country. The revisions, he added,
will be made by a special commit
tee of seven members of the Na
tional committee.
A 14-point program adopted ear
lier in the day by the Mid-West
group was described by Brownell
as a "well-drafted and construc
tive” document.
