Mutual Assistance Pact

Signed With Russians

British-Soviet Accord Aimed at Hitler;

Does Not Mention Japan; Molotov

Spent Week With FDR, Capital

Discloses

(By The Associated Press)

THE United States, Great Britain and Russia were offi-

clally disclosed today to have reached a "full understanding"

on "the urgent task of creating a second front in

Europe in 1942."

A white house announcement, issued simultaneously with

a British statement in London, said Pres. Roosevelt and

Soviet Foreign Commissar V. M. Molotov had reached .agreement

regarding the problem of launching a mighty Allied

offensive against Germany.

It did not state specifically, however, when or if the three

powers had decided to open a second front—merely emphasizing

the "urgent task" of creating a new front.

Simultaneously, the British announced the signing of a

20 year mutual assistance treaty with Russia even as the

Axis armies pressed a violent assault against the Soviet Black

sea naval base of Sevastopol, in the Crimea, and the German

high command reported new gains in the battle of

North Africa.

By LOU1S F. LOCHNER

NEW YORK— (Wide World) —Because

of Adolf' Hitler's blind,

hatred, the Jew is a marked man

wherever Nazism holds sway.

The yellow six. Pointed 'stars with

the German word "Jude" or its'. Czech

or Dutch or other foreign language

equivalent points him out as a person

who must be avoided.

In. Nazi. Germany the treatment of

the Jew has alternated between broken

promises and sadistic cruelty. That the

Jew would be removed from public

office and possibly also dislodged from

cultural positions of influence, once

the Nazis came into power, was apparent

long before -Adolf Hitler took
