the Traveller say-

arriving at an

obvious conclusion?

"Good old JOHNNIE WALKER

-there's a whisky for you"

"Good old Johnnie Walker" is not only an enthusiastic'

tribute; It is also an accurate description of this famous whisky, “Good” is something of an under- statement considering that Johnnie Walker is blended from all the finest whiskies of Scotland; "old" recalls the many years these whiskies matured in the wood before blending.

Poles Ordered To Bow Before New Nazi Masters

A DECREE issued by the Nazi police administrator in the Polish town of Torun gives evidence of the ruthless and brutal treatment of the Polish population by the con- quering Germans.

Dated October 27, 1939, it be gins:

"In order to curb the insolent behaviour of a part of the Polish population. I decree 'as follows:

"The Polish inhabitants of both sexes are obliged to make way in the streets before representatives of the German Authority in

who act against the above regule- tions, are exposing themselves to the most severe punishment."

On the contrary, the next para- graph provides: "Polish females who accost or annoy Germans will be confined to brothels.”

The order concludes with this sinister sentence; "Poles who have not yet grasped that they are the vanquished and we the victors, and

NAZI naval chiefs fear that Heligoland, probably Germany's most vital air and naval base, will be captured by Britain bo fore next spring, says the Paris correspondent of the "Sunday Chronicle".

The Immigrants, who are scattered asong villages and estates are having great difficulties in this "purely Ger man country."

Acts of vengeance by the Poles are common, and the struggle be- tween inhabitants and colonists is called In the Nazi Press "the struggle against banditry."

In the local papers reports of the proceedings of tribunals give' signi- cant stories. In one place young Germans were killed by a Polc. In another an unknown party killed all the members of a well-known Ger- man family. Listeners have been asked on the wireless to attend o mines for "57 comrades, victims of Polish banditry."

Shot by Customer

"In Poznan a German hair-dresser who hail just attended to a Polish customer and was taking 18 money was shot dead by the customer. The Pole shot himself afterwards, and it was found that he had been turned out of the business to make way for the Baltic German.
