Which ends next Junei. Reason behind the recommended gasoline tax increase is the Condi Tion of the Highway Trust fund used to finance the rapidly expanding interstate Road system. Receipts of this fund Are running behind expectations and spending is higher the fund May not be depleted by the end of this fiscal year but the balance will be considerably less than enough to cover anticipated requirements for the next fiscal year. The Kudo cd Bureau and other agencies of the government concerned with the Road program want the Gas tax increased to cover the Gap. Without a hike the Highway Trust fund no longer would be Able to operate on a self supporting basis.

Believes civil War would have followed plot on Hitler unwise Doenitz Bonn up former grand adm Karl Doe nit Adolf Hitler s successor As head of the in i Ger Man state says in his newly published memoirs the men who tried to assassinate Hitler in 1944 were morally right but politically wrong. Doe nil formally rejected the plotters at the time and in his memoirs ten years and Twenty Days adds that had he known of the conspiracy ahead of time he would have opposed it. Doe nit now 67, was commander in chief of the German Navy when Hitler allegedly committed suicide on april a 1945. Hitler s will named Doenitz As his successor. After the War the International military tribunal at. Nurnberg found Doe nit guilty of War crimes and sentenced him to 10 years prison. He was released from Berlin s Spandau prison two years ago and since then has been living at a Muehle near Hamburg. Doe nit. Says he now realizes the july 20, 1944, plotters were morally justified because they were aware of the True situation on the Eastern Ike presents trophies for record flights survivor of crash fatal to 7 indicted Sandusky Ohio up John m.

Bentley his wife Delia their four sons and mrs. Claudia Brooks 45, of Detroit were killed. Front and behind it while the Navy was not so informed. But the result he said would have been civil War. The mass of the German people at that time still supported Hitler he says. One knew nothing of the facts which were known to Tho plotters and which caused them to act. The simple disappearance of Hitler would not have broken the instruments of Power of the National socialist state. It s the nazi state organs would have moved against the new government. Chaos would have been the result. Personnel supplies All this could Only weaken Tho defensive strength of the front. Personnel replacement and move ment of supplies would have been delayed if not stopped completely. Could one under these conditions have expected soldiers at the front to do anything other than reject any Domestic revolt officers must repeatedly ask their soldiers at War to put their lives at stake. Can they officers then assist in an act which will at least reduce the fighting Power at the front that will place the lives of the soldiers in greater danger " the War would have gone on even if the plot had succeeded Doe nit believes and probably would have ended with the rus sians overrunning even a greater part of Germany than they now control. Then As now i believe that the Hopes the july 20 plotters cherished were false Doenitz concludes. If they had succeeded in coming to Power they could not. Have pre vented the defeat. It is probable that the legend would have Arisen that Only the treason of the plotters led to the capitulation and that the War would have been brought to a Good end if Hitler had still been  president Kihun Hower congratulates cmdr Jack it.
