smile in answer to questions as to
when Premier Mussolini may place
the axis nations side by side in
battle.
The authoritative newspaper
Dienst Aus Deutschland expressed
“informed" German opinion that
Spain would have an increased part
in the "new Europe."
Gibraltar Seen Spain's.
The newspaper predicted that:
1. Gibraltar, fortified guardian of
the Mediterranean from the west,
would become Spanish "as it was
originally."
2. Areas across the Mediterranean
from Spain — apparently meaning
territory in addition to Spanish Mo
rocco—must be placed in Spanish
control.
3. Spain thus would become “in
dependent trustee" for nations on
the Mediterranean or doing business
there.
4. Spain's "moral obligations" and
“real interests" would be linked
with the axis partners. Italy and
Germany.
Neutral observers watched closely
for Soviet Russia's attitude toward
the reshaping of Europe on axis
principles. There was no new state
ment of the Soviet position in re
gard to German-Italian plans.
Meanwhile, the Berlin newspaper
Deutsche Allg;emeine Zeitung de
scribed operations in North Fiance
as "varying greatly” from the “blitz
krieg” campaign in Flanders, and
said:
"For the present the successes of
German fighting cannot stand out
In huge land gains. Other measures
cover here. The high command
therefore becomes still more re
served In naming names than in
Flanders.”
New Military Decoration.
Hitler, who as “No. 1 soldier of the
Reich” has followed his front lines
to the west, found time to create a
new military decoration—the Oak
Leaf to Knights of the Iron Cross.
It will be a special decoration to
men who already have won their
Iron Cross.
Continued'' air raids against the
English port of Dover and air
dromes along Eastern England were
announced. At the same time Al
lied airplanes were said to have
caused little damage to military ob
jectives in Germany. In one bombed
German town 10 civilians were re
ported killed.
The Germans said they shot down
©r destroyed 71 Allied planes to 5
of their own lost yesterday. A sub
marine was credited with sinking an
Allied auxiliary cruiser of 14,000 tons
©II the northwest coast of Ireland.

By the Associated Press.
LOS ANGELES, June 8.—Mayor

California Youth Legislature. Ban
ners declared: “The Yanks Are Not

an Army and an air force sufficient
to meet force wjth force,” the
Mayor asserted.
Nephew of Ecuadorean
Envoy Going Into Films
Adolfo Arias. 19-year-old Pana
manian and nephew of Capt. Colon
Eloy Alfaro, Ecuadorean Ambassa
dor, left Washington today, after a
week’s visit with his uncle, to ful
fill a movie contract in Hollywood.
A graduate of Georgetown Pre
paratory School last June and this
year a sophomore at Leland Stan
ford University, young Arias was
selected by a Hollywood scout to
play leading roles in musical comc
, dies but his first role will be in
straight drama. He will appear with
the Monogram Co., whose director
is Curt Bois, a former German film
director and comedian now in exile.
Bois is now working on a musical
revue after the pattern of “Pins
and Needles.” It is due to be given
in California this summer with
Arias as the central character. He
was selected for this role because of
his work with the Ram’s Head Play
ers, the theatrical society sponsored
by Leland Stanford. It was while
he was singing and dancing in a
revue of similar nature that young
Arias came to the attention of
movie scouts.
Arias has never taken voice cul
ture or dancing lessons but he won
elocution medals at Georgetown
Preparatory School.

its former natural shade. In one day,
if you wish. After that, attention only
once a month will keep it that way.
