Flight-Sergeant reports that he has shot down a German aircraft. ■

A gentle hint. Sinclair Lewis,
the 1930 winner of the Nobel
Prize for Literature, had been
invited to preside at a literary
club dinner given in honour of
another wellknown novelist, and,
having duly eulogized their gu-
est, concluded thus:
“An old farmer drove into town
and, going to a corn shop, bought
some oats. Stabling his horse at
the side of the road, he gave,
him a real good dinner. When
it was over, the old man clim-
bed into the trap, took the ra-
ins, and addressed the animal:
„Now you’ve been fed, get up!“
Then the speaker turned to-

Nazi Foe No. l’s Brother
in America.
German Gestapo agents
in Portugal have been
making repeated efforts
to kill Otto Strasser,
“Hitler’s enemy No. 1” —
his brother revealed when
he arrived at La Guardia
Field on the Dixie Clipper.
The brother, Bernard
Strasser, a Benedictine
monk, refused to discuss
his own or his brother’s
plans beyond saying that
attempts to “liquidate”
Otto had followed the re-
velation that he had
sought sanctuary in Portu-
gal.
Nazi wrath was direct-
ed against Otto, once high
in the councils of the
third Reich, after the
Munich beer-hall bomb
blast last Nov. 8 in which
according to Nazi reports,
Hitler narrowly escaped
death. He is now first on
the Nazi “register of
traitors” charged with
organizing the attempt
against the German Fuehr-
er’s life.
