The attempt of the high -class Nazi rats in the Nuernberg war crimes, trial to scuttle away with their miserable lives by resorting to the subterfuge of blaming it all on their dead chief, Adolf Hitler, will likely avail them little. It is but . another example of the deceit and cunning of the trapped criminal and has been seen so often among ' -"the Fascist elements that none, much less the international adjudicators, -are likely to be misled by any such shallow defence. As the tribunal .-..was told yesterday by one of the ' German generals no single man poud have been capable of con-beiv;njf. so many crimes, much less speeihgthat they were carried out. m Tntt late unlamented Adolf Hit-ieit fnliy or may not have been the "trre&teSt criminal of them -all but he -had his willing henchmen and colleagues and the men now arraigned at Nuernberg before a court of in- ternational justice, beyond a doubt, among the chief of them. The people of the world who cherish the principles, of civilization, democracy and humanity shall not be satisfied unless the carriage of justice is justly dispensed upon them. It is grimly amusing, however, to see the resorts to which the beastly lot will go to save their wretched necks from a fate which will be too good for them. Nylons Coming, Take It Easy! February 19th is approaching, when the first nylon stockings will appear in stores across Canada. The . .men are waiting . . . just waiting to see the fun should their wives, ..; daughters, sisters, aunts, girl friends, . -yes even their grandmothers, go .-temporarily crazy. They expect mob scenes, frenzied women trampling each other, fighting madly to get to the counters. And for what? Just " 'to grab a pair of nylons before some pother woman can get them ! Silly, isn't it? Can you blame the men if they are ready to stand by and jeer? If they are planning never to let you forget the time you made "such a fool" of yourself? Of course, it need not be like that. You can outsmart the men by passing up the first nylons without so much as a backward glance, telling " yourself that there'll be plenty of them later, enough for everyone. Getting one of the first pairs of nvlons reallv isn't a life-or-death matter.
