BONE LOSS
PULSE OF THE PUBLIC

Representatives of American
finance monopoly do not want
the neutrality Law repealed. Rep
resentatiyes OF independent busi-
ness. backed by the president,
would have IT repealed.
How can Britain and France
expect 10 win war without the
aid of American wealth. How
can American finance monopoly
save its interests IN Europe II
Britain and France are defeat
ed2 Why. then. should Ameri-
can finance monopoly oppose the
repeal of neutrality embargo?
These first two questions point
to one thing. Capital must save
herself by gigantic war, but
which cannot save her, but in
the end will serve to destroy
her. The third question is an
swered by the fact that repeal
OF the neutrality law on the
cash and carry basis will serve
to preserve the New Deal of
American democracy. For fl
nance monopoly. if it cannot save
itself by war, must resort to the
despotic forces of fascism in a
final attempt to save itself from
the revolutionary conc ition,
which will show the bankrupt
chaos of the world finance after
its present war.

stability for the family will be
evident as homes are speedcd TO

who read tho stars stress the
wisdom OF living outside the

Business Affairs: Caterers and

will be offered in homes and
public places. While famine

American cities.
National Issues: Football this

FAsoRs REPEAL OF
NEUTRALITY ACT

Editor. The Times: Why all
this controversy concerning the
present neutrality law. and the
repeal Of the arms embargo

want 20 be England and France

his potential allies. but, II they
cannot. we are going to help
them of our own initiative, arms
embargo or no arms embargo.
have read with a great deal
OF interest your arguments
against this repeal. have
listened TO the radio 10 some OF
the most prominent speakers
and have failed to find one sem
sible, convincing reason why
this repeal should not be passed.
You state that we should stay
at home and that we are SPEND
ing millions OF dollars for arma-
ments just because a lunatic is
running amuck in Europe and
menacing the peace, not only OF
that continent. but of the entire
world. Oh. no. 1t is none of our
business.
Peace and prosperity. disarm-
ament and honorable round-table
discussion of world problems
will never be achieved until this
menace is eliminated.
England and France could
have eircumvented this law by
requesting Canada to follow the
example of Japan, that while
doing her utmost TO defeat the
enemy. she should not make a
formal declaration of war.
Japan could not have inflicted
such terrible atrocities upon
China without the aid OF Amer
lean arms and ammunitions, and
while supplying these to Japan
with one hand. we loan China
millions of dollars to defend
herself with the other.
We do not recognize the fact
that terrible war is going on
in China. and thus our neutrality
law does not apply. What rank
hypocrisy!

FINDS 1T HARD To
GET OFF WPA

Editor, The Times: Please al
low WPA worker word in
answed to Mr.. Barrett's and Mr..
Glen Nicholson's letters. I say
that they are 100 per cent
wrong; that is, until some
things can be Strengthened out.
There are any number OF us
who would gladly get off of
WPA IL we could. But there are
laws. 1t seems, that prohibit us
from getting private employ
ment. II we are lucky enough
to get a job the unions will not
take us in, therefore we do not
go to work.
Mr.. Nicholson says that WPA
workers will have to be weaned
away from their jobs. I say
that there are hundreds of men
in private employment who
should be weaned from their
jobs. They have been on their
jobs for years and have it made.
so why not give some Of us
chance while we are still young
enough to hold a job.
AS to the WPA itself, il
should be continued at decent
rate of pay for those who have
ability and cannot get private
employment. If they can get q
decent rate of pay. they would
buy. helping our local business
men, own homes, in turn paying
taxes to help support them
selves.
Maybe the critics should have
jobs pushing brooms, or, better
still. on WPA. They might
learn a few things about life. I
once had a 5000 job and know
the difference.

END OF GENERATION
OF INDIvIDUALISM.

Editor, The Times: Il appears
that man is nearing the end OF
the generation of individualism.
Bankrupt Europe wants peace
but cannot have it without war.
Great Britain, lord of the world,
is slowly decaying. France hangs
on by the skin of her teeth.
Germany must become master,
or yield to the socialist forces
within her. Russia stands by
waiting for the crash. America
watches with her ears open,
fiddling with the neutrality act,
wondering If she can save her
financial interests in Europe and
thus save her own economic sys-
tenn at home.

Chairman Of
 Tuberculosis Assn. Makes Appeal
JUNEAU, ALASKA, April .

JUNEAU, ALASKA, April -
 An appeal for cooperation to leaders in the Territory, was made today by Mrs. Vim. Paul. who has accepted the chairman ship of the general committee of the Early Diagnosis Campaign of the Alaska Tuberculosis Assoc iation, which got under way April l and continue throughout the month. Mrs. Paul has asked the chairman of all of the Huber culoSis Committees in the Terri tory 10 appoint local Early Diag nosis Campaign chairmen and concrete plans for the Associa- tions program will be completed shortly.
 "Tuberculosis continues to be a serious menace to public health in spite of the substantial gains made in it's conquest" said Mrs. Paul. Eight out of every ten persons admitted to Sanatoria to- day are in advanced stages of the disease. Because of the high in- cidenee of tuberculosis and the lack of sanatoria for its care in Alaska, the problem here is part icularly acute"
 Early tuberculosis is easy to cure, cases discovered in the very early stages can often, witt proper medical care and by fol lowing the advice of the phySic ian, be safely treated in tn home. Our tuberculosis organiza- ton is urging us to unearth with in our communities those case of tuberculosis which otherwise might not come to light until the cure is more difficult. This our leaders can do by suggesting a physical examination to those whom we may suspect of harbor ing this disease, and who thereby become a source of contagion not only to their families but to the community as a whole"
