Would you complain if President
Roosevelt all of a sudden decided to de-
clare war on some Euopean nation, and
congress agreed with him?
Most probably, you would.
Would your conscience be clear when
you complained-or have you stopped
to think of that?
Do you, as a citizen of the United
States, meet your obligation to your
government?
Are you, for instance, registered
voter right now? Or has your registra-
ton lapsed? Do you just take it for
granted that, because you live IN the
United States, you have the right to
complain about the things your govern
nent-whether state or natiOnal-does?
There is an election in California Nov.
7. A matter of grave concern to the state
will be settled at that time Thousands OF
Californians have not registered to vote
at that election. Unless they register
before Sept. %, they cannot vote.
In principal, it is no more rlgnt Tor
any Californian to shirk voting at the
state election than it is for him to ignore
the policy of his nation in time OF IN
ternational crisis. Good citizens make
good nation. Bad ones invite destruc-
tion of themselves and their government.

MEMBER
NO PLACE FOR UNCLE SAM
IN THIS STEW POT

Because it is the easiest way to de-
scribe the opponents, it has come to be
generally understood that the war in
Europe is one between democracies and
totalitarRn states. More lately, the Eu-
ropean alignment is one to throw con-
fusion into the soul of anyone guileless
enough to think that Europe is fighting
a war of ideals.
Foremost in the confusion, of course,
is the alignment of Russia and Germany
traditional enemies. For years Germans
have been trained to hate all that is
touched with the Communist faint Now
overnight, the Germans are told that
Russia is their friend. The same is true,
in reverse order, of the Communists.
Alongside that, and adding even more
greatly to the confusion, are the efforts
of the democracies-France and Brit
ain-to win friendship with two other
powers which are nothing if not total
itarian. They are Italy and Japan. The
democracies would like to have them
as allies. The men who guide the des-
tny of European nations through the
war are willing to forget ideals. Theirs
is a task of winning a war, regardless
of method.
They want manpower, not ideals.
And they want manpower for selfish
motives. England wants to trample,
once and for all, the growing German
threat to her domination of the Euro
pean political picture. France wants to
weaken Germany so she will not face
constant threat on her frontiers. Both
want to protect the land and resources
they took from Germany as result of
the first World War.
Germany, on the other hand, wants to
get back the territory she lost through
the first World War. So does Russia.
Both nations want to loosen the strong
grip of England at the top of the heap.
Everybody in Euope wants something
from somebody else. That is the reason
for this war, regardless of the idealistic
phrases generated to cover up wholesale
murder.
What does Uncle Sam want in Eu-
rope? Nothing. What have we to gain
by participation in the war? Again,
nothing
Uncle Sam wants no part in Europe,s
stew of greed and blood. Realizing that
selfishness, and not any noble instinct
is behind the European conflict, it is up
to every individual American to see that
his nation retains its determination not
to fight somebody else's war.

Bruce Cation in WASHINGTON
Disseets the News

hand their notes to the official GEN.
sor before going on the air.
FEC officials point out that radio
is tackling its new role of war-cov-
erage without presidents to fall
back on. Officials of networks, as
well as of individual stations, have
displayed full willingness to coop
crate with the commission.
If the FEC or the president de-
Sires any change in method of pre-
sentation or in type of program
during the war in Europe, there is
every evidence that the radio people
will comply willingly with any sug-
gestions that are made.
Beyond making suggestions
which might or might not be acted
on-there isn't much of anything
the administration could do to con-
troll the press as long as the country
Is neutral.
During the last war-after the
United States got in, that is--the
Post Office department did try to
get through a bill which would have
put stringent restrictions on news
papers through control of their use
of the mails. Congress refused to
pass the bill, however; as it turned
out, the newspapers themselves es-
tablished a central bureau of Gen.
sorship for the handling of govern
ment information.
If the United States actually got
into a war, the government could
impose some form of censorship
through control of the telephone
and telegraph systems. These agen-
cies could be placed under the di-
rection of military authorities with
arbitrary powers to administer them
at their discretion.
That wasn't done during the
World War. however, and it isn't
believed here that their is much
chance that it would be done If the
United States should go to war
again.

23o MILES TO THE
NEAREST MOVIE
(Christias Science MonitOr)

In front of a motion picture theater
in Noting Hill Uondon) there is sign
with an arrow pointing toward Wales.
The sign reads:
This cinema is closed until further
notice. Nearest open cinema is at
Aberystwyth, $50 miles away.
Thus does the comic sense of Eng
land protest against the order closing
cinemas and theaterS. The few permit
ted to remain open are in places con-
Sidered free from bombing The reason
for the order is that there is a fear of
the results should air torpe&oes fall on
large gatherings. The order seemed a
good thing before the war started but
already editorials in the London press
are expressing fear that the people are
turning to less innocent amusements,
and sharp increase in liquor sales is
reported.
One of the parodoXes of the situation
is that it may be possible for soldiers
at the front to see movies while Leicester
Square and Piccadilly Circus are too
dangerous for civilians. In the Maginot
Line there are places for the showing of
motion pictures and it is probable that
the besieged civilian populations will
also demand entertainment even if
bonb-proof theaters have to be found.
One has to agree with the Evening Stand
ard that the home front will be none
the worse off for an occasional glimpse
of Ginger Rogers" Even Ferdinand"
ought not to be banned among people
whose morale is supported by a sense of
humor

UNIVERSITY AND REDS
(Hanford Sentinel)

No one who knows the great educator
will classify Major General David P.
Barrows, former president of the Uni
versity of California, as an absent mind
ed professor. He is the opposite, the
alert type, yet sufficiently methodcal
to have everything in its place where
either mind or hand can grasp it readily.
Yet there are some who will assume
that the former preXy of the states
gigantic institution of learning has a
rather convenient forgettery.
Some years ago the press of the state
called attention to the infiltration OF
communists = Reds on the university
campus. Dr. Barrows, then president of
the university, at the time staunchly de-
MED that communists or communism had
any entree or Influence there.
But the general told quite a different
story as witness at the Bridges hearing
on Angel Island Friday, admitting that
the communists have caught quite a
few students, including sons and daugh-
tiers of the well-to-do' on the Berkeley
campus.
Perspective seems to make a differ
ence. What DR.. BarroWs could not see
as top man of the campus General Bar
rows sees quite clearly as more or less
outside observer. Since Barrows is
man of indisputabe courage it goes
without saying that if he had apprehend-
ed Reds on the campus he would have
made things hot for them. 1t is quite
possible that while he was master of
the campus somebody calculatingly in
terposed smokescreen between him and
no oh hn oth
All of which means that houseclean-
ing in certain university departments
may still be in order.
