FRIDAY. MAY 14, 1943 HESS IS NO HELP famous Nail Prisoner Is Brcominy . A I a More and mot irrational ana Neurotic LONDON, May 22 After two year or captivity the wars most famous prisoner, Rudolf Hess, was described today by reliable sources as a "complete loss" to the Allies and becoming more and more Irrational and neurotic. Hess, the one-time deputy fueh rer of the Nazi party, was reported still housed In an Internment camp, where he lives the routine life of a prisoner plagued by an increasing persecution compleic. He U said to have once called his guards several times a day to complain that "you are plotting against e." His general health Js said to be not bad, though It is becoming increasingly difficult "to make any sense out of what he Is talking about." Recalling that Hess. arrived In Britain on May 10, 1941, an Informant said: 'Before he landed we would have thought It worth while to do almost anything In order to get the No. 3 Nazi In our hands. Once we got him, we found out differently. He has been a complete loss. He suffers from several fixed ideas, and it is no good trying to talk to him about others. His principal flxsd idea is the same one with which he arrived in England that Russia as menacing the whole world and t!.at England, the United States and all the rest of the world must Soviets. He started talking about ',r.ai as soon as ne ianaea ana ne never stopped."

BRITISH COLUMBIA EIRE VOTE COMING UP Kamon de Valera Expects To Be Keturning; to Office at General Election In June LONDON, May 22 The fact that Eire, in the fourth year or war, is still a neutral and, despite shortages of some Items, is faring very well, Is" the basis on which Eamon de Valera's government expects to be returned to office In the general elections in June. The difficulties of the Irish farmers shortages of farm machinery parts, gasoline and transportation for produce have led to a certain discount in that .group which will be reflected by the election of a few candidates from the new Farmers' party. Premier De Valera's followers believe that they will gain a clear ma jority, with, about 72 or 73 seats In the dail. .. .. Held Severe Eire's citizens feel that the coal and gasoline shortages are unduly severe. Food and clothing rations seem to the Irish a greater hardship today, when there Is less danger of their being dragged into the war, than they would have been had rationing been introduced at the height of Germany's forward march. Dublin stores today have far less to offer. It is true, than a year ago, but rationing is more limited than In Britain. Moreover, the fnest Fngllsh woolens and other materials not available in Britain because reduced only for the export market, can be obtained in Dublin. Scotch whisky, sherry, port, lemons and oranges all of which are becoming dim memories to the British, are to be found In Erie. But to the average Dubliner, or cottager in provincial Eire, life seems very hard because living costs have risen. The small tea ration, ' and the lack of kerosene for lamps In millions of unelectricfied homes, cause the greatest hardship.

Being an agricultural country whose only real market is Britain, Eire's future economy is linked with Britain's whether the Irish like it or not.
