question is a sacred privilege which
no party or national leader will seek

be made the test of party fealty UNI

each citizen has the right and privi-
lege to look into the question and
make up his mind independently. 1t

tears, such as thinking men shed, were
mastering the cheers"
1t will be that way, more or less,
with most of the things that most OF
our number hope to do when they get
home. That trip to the coast. that
three months loaf, that job at an in
credible salary and incredibly short
hours, even that girl-all plans for
them will undergo some sort Of a
change. The pleasant pastime of
building air castles in France or Ger
many is not without it's uses as an
exercise of the imagination; but the
transportation of those aid castles,
like moving Cologne Cathedral TO
Milwaukee, is something else again.
OF course, some of the dreams, some
of the plans will come true. 1t would
be fine if all the good ones should
come true. But somewhere between
Brest and Boston, Bordeaux and Bal
timore, st. Nazaire and st. Paul, the
majority Of them are pretty sure to
suffer a sea change" And we need
not be disappointed if they do, for
we shall be back in the United States,
the land of opportunity, in which the
best and the biggest dreams have been
known to come true for those who add
ed labor of head and hand to the aspi.
ration of the heart.

EN- WE GO BACK

Stars and Stripes-It seems that a

who landed in New York not so long
ago., had 1t all fixed up to cheer the
Statue of Liberty the moment that
lovely lady appeared to them through

lean thoroughness, they had appoint
ed a cheer leader, rehearsed their
yells. and were all out on deck ready
to blow Bedloe's Island clear out of
the water with the righteousness Of
their greetings.
But" as it is reported in a back
home paper, when the leader opened
his mouth there was something in the
way that stopped the sound. There
was something In his eyes that mist
ed his view. There was no noise be-
hind him. He looked around. and the
trouble was epidemic. Soundless
