Battle Advises Measures To Squash Red Aid By RUSSELL BRINES WASHINGTON ‘%)-Rep. Battle (D-Ala) said today the Communists still “get pretty much what they want” in strategic material from the West, and that the U. S. should wage “a vigorous and comprehen- sive” campaign to shut it off. He said present measures are amadequate and net properly en- sorce i, Battle issued a report to the House summarizing progress in enforcing an act, which he spon- sored, to cut off American assis- tance to Allied nations which knowingly ship strategic materials to the Red bloc. Compliance has been universal among nations receiving U. S. as- sistance, he said, and over 300 items are subject to embargo. But, he added, the act does not apply to neutral nations not getting U. S. aid and has no effect on closing such “legal leaks” as the free ports of Europe Battle said the act “has been administered with less firmness and determination” than Congress Prices Good Thru START YOUR WEEK RIGHT Shop at the Friendliest Stores With the Friendliest Prices! . . .

America’s Sweetheart is again hitting the road for the U. S. Trea- sury Department, duplicating her trip to sell Liberty Bonds in World War I. This time it’s a different; war, and she is aiming her efforts at enlisting workers in the Bond- a-month plan. Miss Pickford leaves at noon to- day on the Santa Fe Chief.

I am not going to exploit Mary Pickford. For all I know, I may never make another picture. I want to devote all my time on the tour to selling bonds.” She reminisced about the 1918 marked. Miss Pickford discoursed on a} number of other topics, including: | Chaplin—“I don’t know why he | killed off the little character hej used to play. His greatness was that he rose above the problems of the world. When he started to! delve into those probiems, he was not as successful. “I imagine he must miss Cali- fornia, as everyone would who has lived here.
