A. Strassâ€" er, Welfare officer, to the Chronicle yesterday. A call yesterday came for a marâ€" ried couple to take over and work the farm of a bachelor farmer who was ill. but experience was necesâ€" sary. Mr. Strasser stated that calls for help in haying and hoeing can ‘be supplied. but for the most part those now on relief in Waterloo are unemployed, being physically unfit or inexperienced.

Speeches in Parliament will not affect our decisions." "The loyalist submarine attack upon our cruiser Leipzig taught us a lesson we shall not forget," he said, raising his first against a backâ€" ground of the ancient fortress of Marienberg that looms like a guardâ€" imn above this eleventhâ€"century city of Yower Franconia. ‘"We shall take our security into our own hands. Thank God we are strong enough to protect ourselves Hitler served flat warning to Great Britain and France that they could expect no further coâ€"operation from him in their efforts to "isoâ€" late" the Spanish civil war and preâ€" vent it from engulfing Europe in a general conflict.
