The office has been criticized

With the exception OF one or
two senators and possibly one 9th

for a better and safer America.
Even the COMMON nut has suf-
ficient amount OF intelligence To
know that preparedness spells in
surance. while Peace ut Any
Price" is an empty slogan-an
empty policy--that spells nothing
and endangers our security as a
nation. Among other things, we
need an adequate coast defense
system. Uncle Sam Is at peace
with the world TODAY Thanks
to man named Wilson. We do
not need n big standing army at
great national expense-but we
should be able TO muster five mil
