LONDON, May 14 (Reuter)."The freedom-loving and peace-loving peoples of this earth are coming to realise that this is not Britain's fight alone," declared the United States Ambassador, Mr John Winant, addressing the English-Speaking Union luncheon in his honour to-day.

"On the wise use of the navies of the world may hang the destinies of the world's free

people," Mr Winant continued.

"A kindly Providence at this time of stress and danger has placed at the heads of the two

By Nazis: U.S. Protest

The State Department has protested to the German Goy.' ernment in behalf of the American Young Men's Christian As- Bociation against seizure by the invading German forces of three camps owned by the Polish Y.M.C.A.

The protest points out that the. value of the three build- ings is approximately $2,000,000 and that more than one-half of this amount came from American donors and was given with the stipulation that if the buildings were ever used for other than Y.M.C.A. purposes the money would revert to America.

According to reliable reports from Poland, the Y.M.C.A. building in Warsaw is now serving as the seat of the Ger- Government · in Poland, Din while that in Krakow is hend- quarters for the Gestapo, Ger- many's secret police. The third building is in Lodz.
