Cousin Not in Coop

To dispose of the rumors that Reich Marshal Hermann Goering had been locked up because of his opposition to the Russian venture, the Germans last week issued a picture (see cut) of the sausage-general, resplendent in a white uniform, looking pensive but unshelved. Occasion: the award to Lieut. Colonel Werner Moelders, 28, who has shot down 101 planes in World War II (plus 14 in Spain) of the highest, most pompous German award for bravery, the Oak-Leaves-with-Swords-in-Diamonds-on-the-Knight's-Cross-of-the-Iron-Cr oss. Hermann Goering had himself just received an even more colorfully named if relatively pip-squeaking award. He had been named an Honorary Hereditary Cousin of the King of Italy.
