The dramatic plot is highlighted
with much -humor as the star

highly satisfying picture with
action as only "Hopalong" Cas-

it. There is action, and plenty
of it, drummed out to the ac-

the survivors with the hope of forcing an
early dictated and separate peace upon the
French government.
Now that the nazis have set the example,
what, We ask, is to prevent the Allied alf
forces from retaliating with raids, as destruc'
tive as possible. upon Berlin? 1t is not
pleasant to contemplate the shambles that
could thus be created, but it must be remem-
bered that this is war, war to the death, the
Allies declare, and the sooner it's anguish IS
brought home to the German people, the soon
er may we expect them to understand that It's
price is not to be imposed on one side only.
General WEYGAND has given proof that the
war has graduated from a defensive one on
the Allied side. He has demonstrated de-
termination to carry the war to the enemy as
fast as he can assemble his forces for that
purpose. Well, the air raid On Paris seems
to afford him excellent opportunity to show
the benighted followers of ADOLF HITLER that
he is not without power to strike terrific
blows on Germany's capital and force them to
see the equivalent of the devastation their
armies have wrought in other countries.

SCHOOL GARDEN CONTEST

Dear Sir:
Personally and in behalf of every
father and mother whose boy or
girl took part in the school garden
confess ~ 1910, I wish to publicly
extend to Mr.. Carl Render and
Mr.. R. B. Page my most sincere
thanks and deepest appreciation
for their untiring efforts in making
the school garden contest such a
wonderful success.
In addition to the cash prizes,
the trophys or cups presented to
the most successful contestant
each year by Mr.. Page of The
Star-News jointly with MI. Reh-
der's forethought and advice, have
no doubt encouraged u boys and
girls to have more and better gar
denS each year.
From a standpoint of knowledge
and experience l believe the les
sons learned in planting and grow
ing of vegetables and flowers in
the School Garden contest to be
vital factors in the future develop
ment both mentally and physically
of our boys and girls.
am sure each boy and girl con
testant deeply appreciates the I'm
firing efforts and interest shown
by both Mr.. Render and Mr..
Page who have done SO much to
make this work a success.
The lessons learned in the plant
ing and growth of different vege-
tables and flowers learned in their
school work supplemented by prac'
teal experience in their garden
work is a most constructive step.
l believe all boy and gill con-
testants as they grow up in later
years will always cherish in their
memories their experiences in the
school garden work.
l believe the cultivation of school
gardens has been a great help in
the growth and welfare of the youth
of our community.
In conclusion l believe Mr.. Reh-
der's work is to be commended
I wish both Mr.. Render and Mr..
Page and all contestants still great
er success in the Star-News School

PLANES FOR ALLIES

II must be apparent to the most casual
observer, as we'll as to the trained minds that
propose it, that to deliver our old planes to
the Allies in their great emergency is no less
to our advantage than to theirs.
We have, it appears, many warplanes which
could be of no value to us in any later crisis,
but which are still serviceable and could do
the Allies much good if delivered quickly. The
proposal, which has been laid before Presi-
dent ROOSEVELT, is to return them to the
manufacturers who could rush them to
France and England and so get them into the
battle while there is still hope Of defeating
HITLER.
The advantage to us in this arrangement
lies in the fact that whatever we can do to
stem the nazi tide in Europe will help to keep
that tide from sweeping this way. 1t will also
make possible ~speedier replacement of new,
more modern warplanes for our own use,
should they be needed, or for the Allies in
their continued resistance.
AS the battle proceeds and reaches ever
larger areas in Europe the drain on %airpower
increases. If the Allies are to hold up their
end successfully they must have more and
more planes, and our help in providing them
is indispensable. They are fighting our fight
as much as their own. Whatever we can do
to aid them, within the expanding limits of
our shaky neutrality, should be done. II old
planes are needed, especially the bombers
which are still effective, why bubble about
sending them?
The decision, of course, is up to Mr.. RoosE-
WELT. He is in the best position to arrive at
it. But it is difficult to see how he can op-
pose the proposal.

THE PARIS AIR RAID

After many alarms during the eight proceed.
ing months Of war, Paris, at the start of the
ninth month, experiences its first air raid,
with what damage and loss of life accom-.
panied it unannounced by a careful French
ministry of information, which wisely wishes
to conceal from the enemy what it's planes
accomplished.
Early dispatches are, as usual, fragmentary,
but it appears that successive waves of Ger.

units will have to be larger and existing units
be given more camp training, to make their
personnel thoroughly efficient.
Under present schedules prep school and
college ROTC groups are sent to camp only
during the summers of their Junior and
senior years. Would it not be advantageous
to give them this training and experience dur
ing the freshman and sophomore years as
we'll? Surely it would make them better
soldiers.
And would it not be equally advantageous
to make ROT training compulsory in all
high schools? We have not felt the need of
compulsory military training on the German
basis, largely because two wide oceans seemed
to make us immune to attack. But now we
know that no ocean is wide enough for that.
The %airplane has conquered distance, and the
old security it afforded is but a memory, a
condition which makes it imperative that
every boy physically fit be trained in drill
and discipline to take up a military burden
which becomes more necessary every day that
German legions advance in France and Bel
GUM.
North Carolina has been particularly re-
miss in the organization of ROTC units. The
time has come for it to set aside it's aversion
to enforced soldering, and invite the govern
ment to create units in every high school.
The Wilmington morning star., 1940-06-04
MORE MILITARY TRAINING

We in America have such confidence in our
ability to meet any emergency at the hour of
it's arrival that we are likely to discount the
Importance Of preparation.
This is apparent, for example, in our

tons until recent years. Since the last World
on a stronger and better equipped national
guard, but at best in comparison with popula-
ton and resources, it is still far below the
standard of European countries before the
present conflict. Yet it is a part of the
foundation of our national defense and an
important factor in any defense program.
Now, we are face to face with an emergency
which may or may not create a crisis, accord.
ing to the outcome Of the war in Europe.
Should the nazis triumph, we probably will
have to defend our shores against invasion.
1t would not come the day after an armistice
in Europe, or perhaps the year after, or. even
two or three years. But it would come, even.
tually, unless we made ourselves militarily
impregnable.
To do this, America will have need for
much %stricter, far-reaching training for civil
ians. Not only will the national guard have
to be increased and given more intensive
training under conditions resembling those of
war as closely as possible, but boys Of high
school and college age will have to become
integral parts of the nations military ma
chine on a larger scale than at present. ROTC

BROWDER GUILTY OF TREASON?
Charlotte Observer

Earl Browder, leader Of the communist party
and its nominee for the presidency Of the Unit.
ed States strikes us as being guilty Of high
treason and self.condemned by some of the
statements made in his speech of acceptance
yesterday.
1t is not for us to say that he should be ar
rested, tried and convicted for treason against
the United States. although the minds Of many
of the people Of this country must have been
spanked into wondering after hearing how far
a subversive influence can go before it is Grim.
inally subversive, or how intelligent is the
American right of freedom when it is permitted
to &c to the point of exercising freedom to de.
stroy freedom"
1t Is not, however, this which is in mind.
Browder is clearly guilty Of preaching doc,
trine subversive of the Soviet philosophy which
he represents and which he will carry into his
campaign for the White House in demanding
that the United States have done with its pre-
paredness program, and that, instead, it COM
NIT itself to the ways and habits of peace, let.
ting "the two imperialistic powers of Europe
fight it out among themselves.
That is his view and attitude as stated in his
speech Of acceptance.
He is a militant pacifist, and, therefore trea-
sonable to the philosophy of communism as in.
carnated in it's chief high priest Of Moscow.
Stain does not believe in letting the two
imperialistic powers of Europe fight it out
alone.
Indeed, he jumped into the fray himself after
collaboration with Hitler, sending his legions to
pounce upon and blast Finland off the map,
Selling the booty which was surrendered to the
impious and bloody hands Of his armed forces
when they had beaten these free people into an
enforced surrender.
If Stain, therefore, the head of communism
in the world, is committed to war, is backing
Hitler now in his enterprise to subjugate the
continent of Europe to his imperial brutality,
how is it that Earl Browder, the representative
of Stain and of the communist government of
Moscow can be SO passionately ommitte to
the cause of pacifism and SO rebellious against
the idea of the United States taking up arms
even for no more outrageous end than to keep
itself from suffering the fate of other demo-
cracies?
What is this if it is not outright treason to
communism?
