WASHINGTON, Jan. 21. -(P)--
The United States Government to-
night lifted its "moral embargo" on
exports of airplanes and air equip-
ment to Soviet Russia.
The embargo was imposed Dec. 2,
1939, during the Russo-Finnish war,
as a mark of American disapproval
of Russian activities at that time.
The Soviet ambassador, Constan-
tine Oumansky, has now been noti-
fied by the State Department that the
embargo is no longer applicable to
the Soviet Union.
The decision was interpreted as a
friendly gesture.
The embargo was announced by
President Roosevelt to discourage, the
export of airplanes, aeronautical
equipment and materials essential to
airplane manufacture to countries
which were declared guilty of un-
provoked bombing and machine gun-
ning of civilian populations from
the war.
The State Department later ex-
panded it to include plans, plants,
manufacturing rights or technical in-
formation required for the produc-
tion of high quality aviation gaso-
line. '
President Hits Critics
Of 4id-To-Britain Bill
WASHINGTON, Jan. 21-(R)-
While Joseph P. Kennedy was telling
a house comittee that he opposed the
administration's aid-to-Britain bill
"in its present form," President
Roosevelt characterized certain ob-
jections raised by critics of the bill
as "cow-jump-over-the-moon stuff
-old Mother Hubbard."
The president referred to talk on
Capitol Hill that the measure would
permit the president to give away
the navy or use it to convoy supplies
to Britain. There was no indication
that his remarks were aimed in par-
ticular at Kennedy, his retiring am-
bassador to England, although one
of the suggested amendments that
Kennedy approved was a prohibition
against American convoys
State Pastors
Meeting Hears
Dr. E. Aubrey
Theology Professor States
Value Of Christianity
To True Democracy
Democracy is not really Christian
until all its acts are dominated\ by
the Christian faith, Dr. Edwin E.
Aubrey, professor of theology and
ethics at the University of Chicago,
asserted here yesterday in an address
before the second annual Michigan
Pastors Conference.
"We must not automatically think
of democracy and Christianity as be-
ing inextricably bound together," Dr.
Aubrey said. "For the democratic
form of government is not necessar-
ily Christian in its actions. Nor is
the church dependent on any one
particular political faith. We must
never forget that Christianity em-
braces all classes, all nationalities
and all races."
Dr. Aubrey declared that if the
Protestant Church wishes to help ob-
tain a Christian democracy it will
be forced to sacrifice some of its own
vested interests. It must develop a
"profound fellowship" within its
ranks and substitute a certain
amount of centralization for the'in-
dividualism it has hitherto enjoyed.
The church must not repeat the

mistake it made in 1918 and make
the present world conflict a "Holy
War," Dr. Aubrey continued. "Our

CAIRO, Egypt, Jan. 21.-Australi-
an shock troops led by a crack Bri-
tish regiment smashed through Itli-
an defenses at Tobruk, Libya, to a
depth of more than five miles today
and captured many prisoners includ-I
ing a general, the British high com-
mand announced.
"The, advance is continuing," the
British added.
Despite the presence of German,
dive-bombers in the Mediterranean,
area the Royal Navy stood offshore
and poured high explosives into To-
bruk where 30,000 Italians are be-
sieged.
"The Italian cruiser San Giorgio in
Tobruk harbor is in flames together
with a number of petrol (gasoline)
stores and the like," the communi-'
que said.
Tanks and the Royal Air Force
also aided the land forces who sprang
to the assault at dawn today after
15 days of the same careful prepara-
tion that recently reduced the Bar-
dia garrison.
Capture of the Italian general
made a declared total of 12 thus
far captured in the British campaign
in Egypt and Italian Libya. Italian
losses in dead, wounded and cap-
tured already are estimatedto total
83,500.
The RAF carried out all-night
raids Sunday and yesterday before
the ground charge began. The Bri-
tish airmen showered the outer de-
fenses with explosives and the town
and harbor installations with both
explosive and fire bombs. .Hits on
marine repair shops and the silenc-
ing of Italian ground batteries were
claimed.
British tactics were much the same
as those used at Bardia which fell
after a 2-day final assault.

counter-attacked vainly in the Tepe-

from the front said today, and were
driven back with heavy casualties
and the loss of their original posi-

which it will be easier to reach their
objectives."

a strategic height in a surprise at-
tack, it said.
"More than 100 prisoners, including
three officers, were captured," it said,
"together with material."

in Miami, I can promise you the
greatest collection of college stars

!ork Yankees of the American Pro-
fessional Football League, announced
his willingness to play in a long-dis-
tance phone conversation with Har-
mon Monday- night. He is considered
the greatest fullback the South has,

"The collection of stars that we plan
to present should fill the Orange
Bowl Stadium," Harmon pointed out.
"The opposing team will be made up
'of outstanding players from the
South and the Pacific Coast."

ridespread disorders in Rumania
cluding the slaying of a German
ficer prompted General Ion Anton-
cu to put the army in charge of the
ate Police, militarize 87 important
dustries, and made a desperate ap-
al last night to dissident Iron
uardists to "forget the hatreds" and
d him in reestablishing order.
(Dispatches from Belgrade said the
ghting was between heavily-armed
umanian Iron Guardists and the
umanian Army. From Sofia it was
sported German troops, now sta-
oned in Rumania in great numbers,
ere speeding to Bucharest and other
ties to quell the fighting.)
General Antonescu dismissed Min-
ter of the Interior Petrevicesu, a
ading Iron Guardist, "for failure to
t up a guard around the hotel hous-
tg the German military mission,
dilure to take the necessary steps
ter 'the murder of the German
ajor, and for allowing internal
rder to collapse."
Names New Minister
Dimitru Popescu, military com-
ander of Bucharest, was named new
sister of interior. All police pre-
ts were replaced by military men,
n army major was named head of
ilitary censorship, and an army
eneral replaced the State Police
ead.
The disturbances occurring in Bu-
harest and other parts of the coun-
ry were blamed by Antonescu on
reign agents, rebellious elements,
nd "some misunderstandings by in-
ividuals."
(An official Rumanian News Agen-
y dispatch published in Belgrade to-
ay said Horia Sima, Iron Guard
ader, left Bucharest last night for
erlin to confer with Nazi leaders
here).
A decree was published providing
he death penalty for any premedi-
ated crime against members of the
German military mission here. A gov-
.nment spokesman saigl Antonescu
lso had threatened severe punish-
ment for anyone found connected
n any way with the slaying of the
German officer.
Curfew Imposed
At 10 p.m. curfew was imposed.
The Bucharest radio last night de-
lared Iron Guardists had held dem-
nstrations against the murderers of
he German major (identified in
ther dispatches as a Major Doering).
The announcements were made in
German, French, . Rumanian, and
Italian.
"We must," said General Antonescu
n appealing to the people, "reestab-
lish order and tranquility in 24 hours
because I have not been, and I do
not want to be tomorrow the instru-
ment of tyranny, or the bridge lead-
