America at war! (1941–) – Part 5

Gracie Allen Reporting

By Gracie Allen

The fat-salvage campaign is getting somewhere.

Housewives have been turning in their waste grease to the butchers for two years.

Now Pierre Laval has turned himself in. It’s certainly a pitiful sight. It looks as though Laval hasn’t a friend in the world left to double-cross.

When arrested he probably told the truth for the first time in his life when he said he wished he was in New York. And he was about the only “big shot” among our enemies who had his own wife with hm at the finish.

He’s certainly the right type for a traitor. Even his name is two-faced. No matter if you spell it forward or backward, it still spells Laval.
