Dominion Bridge, 21.50: HESS IS ' CONFINED Prize Nazi Refugee Kept in Secret Place No Official but Plenty of Unofficial Comment "CRANKY ABOUT FOOD" LONDON, Slay 11: (CP) An Associated Press correspondent at Rudolf Hess' retreat somewhere in Britain said that a visit to the hospital where Hess was confined brought only one comment from tight-lipped physicians and nurses that Hess is "cjanky about what he eats." Earlier one medical attendant was quoted as saying: "Hess is not unnaturally high strung after his ordeal. He ts one of the sanest and most , logical men I have ever met." The entire staff of a London nursing home and two eminent brain specialists have been sent to attend Hess. 1,1. UUll . AS. ' ' BAGDAD.

' Monday night. Hess' flight from Germany is still rife but the concensus of opinion appears to be that he was actuated by personal motives. He brought no peace terms, It has been definitely stated. The British Broadcasting Corporation commented tersely: "The first rat to leave the ship." All Premier Winston Churchill would observe was that "the maggot is In the apple." 1" What Berlin Says ' The anti-Nazi German refugee niewspaper published in England yesterday criticized any inclination ' of the British to be soft-hearted with Hess or to feel that "he might not be such a bad fellow after all." the paper said. "He Is as bad as the worst of them and the blood of .thousands is equally on his hands." j In Berlin the German newspapers finally acknowledged today that 'Hess had landed in Britain. At first they had merely said he was missing. Statements were repeated that he was a "sick, deranged and muddled idealist" who had suffered from mental disease since the last war. 1 Adolf Hitler himself has taken over Hess' duties as leader of the Nazis party. He was given an ex-iprcssiiotl or cjonidance yesterday at a Nazi rally. Hess' flight will have no effect upon the prosecution of the war which has been forced upon Germany, it is stated.
