BURMA ROAD:
NiDDOn Wins

Gen. Chang Kai-shek has been
holding out for a long time against
Japan. For this, he has needed mil
itary supplies. These came to him
through British Burma, and through
French Indo- China, and they came
in large doses. The Japanese were
enraged, and the collapse of France,
in Europe, threatened to halt the
traffic through Indo-C China. But still
the war stuff passed along the Bur.
ma road to Chungking, Chiang's
capital. So Japan got hard-boiled
about it. Nippon threatened the
British capital Of China: Hong
kong, with its billion of invested
mazuma. At first the British held
out and defied the Japs, but finally
they gave in. They agreed to pro-
hibit the transport Of arms and am
munition, trucks and gasoline, and
to allow Japanese inspectors to help
enforce the air-tight agreement.
This eased the Jap-British tension. in
the Far East, though it may prove
to be q death blow to Chang Kali
shek. But England was in no con-
dition to take on fresh opponents.

MARTINIQUE:
What q Mess

The little French West Indian is

AIDED by British warships. They
were after the French naval units
there, including the one French air.
craft carrier, loaded down with
American made planes. Anglo
French bitterness was growing
apace, and a naval battle threat
ened, with Uncle Sam as the I'M
happy referee.
How to feed Martinique? That was
the question. It seemed possible
that American steamers might bring
in supplies to the beleaguered
French, who were out on limb, and
far from home. Some critics hoped
the French would scuttle their ships,
and get 1t over with, thereby
strengthening neither Hitler nor
John Bull.
The Monroe doctrine was being
further confused and twisted every
day, and wee little Uruguay APP
peared to be its chief Latin Ameri-
can upholder, while the Mexican
presidential aspirants twisted Uncle
Sans coattails.
+ Chile was a perfect example of it
all. Here were five communist daily
papers, and four distinct Trotskyite
parties. Germany was its second
best customer, and 40 per cent of
the Chilians were illiterate. In Peru,
two-thirds Of the people were

did nothing. South Americans were
talking about the four horsemen of
the apocalypse. The four horsemen
were labeled Hitler, Stain, John
Bull-and Uncle Sam! This was ex-
lemplified in bitter Gillian cartoon.

Foreign Minister Molotov of Rus
STA does not break into print often
at least not so often as some of his
predecessors.
OF all of them, he has been the
most enigmatic. And thus Russia's
place in the European drama re-
mains mysterious. Is it Germany's
ally? Or is it preparing for war
with the Nazis?
Russia's "grab" in Rumania of
area formerly belonging to it does
not answer these questions. Berlin's
recent warning to Hungary to be-
have with relation to demands on
Rumania only complicated the
dope" Of the experts.
Whether Molotov and his Berlin
"allies'' are on friendly terms or
off is Molotov's secret still. The
situation has furnished an open sea-
son for commentators. Speculations
of every fancy have appeared.
Most Of them were highly con-
jectural.

PROTECT REFUGEES

II there are any effective legal
restrictions preventing child ref
ugees from England coming to
homes offered them in America,
they ought to be removed.
There is a more cogent question.
Some institutions for the care Of
homeless children have experienced
a marked seasonal rise in applica-
tons for adoption around the gra-
cious Christmas season.
At varying later periods the little
darlings don't seem so desirable.
On this ground, usually, the insti-
tuition that gave the child viii take
it back, but what is going to hap
pen in similar situation with these
piteous fugitives?
Heaven knows we have such q
terrific burden in taking care of the
millions of our own destitute that
we are not making very good job
of it, and few if any Of their children
are being guaranteed a home. Boz
the plight of little children under
bombing operations is mere than
persuasive-it is compelling.
Many good and responsible people
are offering to assume the financial
and personal burden OF receiving
these kids. But doesn't confidence in
the whole scheme require provision
now for that possibility?

AN ALLY:
SeIassie, Etc.

One of the oldest war bits yet to
evolve, came to light. England made
Halle Selassie a full-fedged war al
ly, against Italia. London formally
recognized the little exile as EN-
peror of Ethiopia, Lion of Judah,
etc., and told him that he was now
back 'on'' the Ethiopian throne.
Mussolini was reported as enor-
mously amused by it all, though
Selassie's revival may aid native
rebels against Italy, in the Ethiopian
sector of Italian East Africa. Eng
land had formally and officially rec
ognized the italian conquest of Ethi-
opia by an agreement Of 1888. Halle
is still only 40 years old, and was
said to be rarin' to 60. But where?
Another British ally was the sui
tan Of Jehore. Jehore is near Singa-
pore, in the Malay peninsula. The
sultan met a rude Canadian in a
London AFRAID shelter. The sultan

said he was the sultan. The rude
Canadian said: "That's nothing. I'm
the king of Ireland" But the good
natured sultan laughed, and proved
his point. Once the French police
arrested him for photographing the
Maginot line area. His sultana was
Scotch, but he divorced her by say
ing, under Moslem law, ''get out"

has scarcely begun. The Democrats
had the imelight for the past week
or two. But Willkie also managed to
get bit of publicity here and there.
Battling Willkie chose Chicago for
his campaign base and his national
headquarters. He rented a large
suite of offices in the Loop, the Chi
cago headquarters to be run by John
Hamilton, former national chairman
for the G. o. p, and now executive
director Of the national committee.
New York was designated as east
ern headquarters. Candidate Willlxie

DEFENSE FALLACIES


DEFENSE FALLACIES
The President was right in saying
that the American people are pre-
pared for any sacrifice for total de-
tense. 1t should have begun long
ago.
But dancing a merry madrigal
and tossing off billions like bay
leaves isn't total defense. Mr..
Roosevelt's futile solution for every
problem from unemployment to ag-
riculture, from business depression
to defense, is to ask congress for
blank checks for billions.
On the very face of this message,
defense appropriations must have
been wholly implanted. 1t takes, or
it should take, much time and study
to blueprint and then undertake an
industrial production progress of
even 81 LOCO, 100000. But this is the
Presidents own time table of what
he has asked-and when.
The midland journal. (Rising Sun, Md.) 1885-1947, 1940-07-26

Nobody is going to complain about
what defense costs. Nobody ought
to complain about the belated awak-
ening Of our great American Dala-
dier or the sound diplomatic, mill
tary and naval strategy both of dem
onstrating that we intend immedi-
ately to make ourselves invincible
and Of proceeding to do SO. But
this roman candle jugglery with bill
lions isn't going to fool anybody but
the American people.
For what is this money to be
spent? For naval expansion" for
active and reserve equipment of
Gland force" of 100000 men and
for $4,000 airplanes-all "to repel
aggression against the United
States or the Western hemisphere"
But we twill not send our men to
take part in European wars"
How about results from the bill
lions already authorized? excel
lent progress Every week, more
and more is being delivered" That
sounds exactly like the guns and
munitions we have con hand or on
order"
The trouble with every phase Of
this message is that it reveals Moth
ing except a hint that there is no
plan. That the magnificent figures
were picked out of the air, and that
actual progress is too piff1ing to be
described any more definitely than
in the DR.. Coue pollyanna abraca-
dabra "every day in every way !
grow better and better"
Is there any military or naval
opinion that we can or should pre-
pare to repel aggression anywhere
on the Western hemisphere? It is
not on record. A realistic approach
to our defense problem reveals
that, while we can and must become
supreme and impregnable about as
far as the Equator with such
strength as would be serious threat
to any incursions further south, we
can't underwrite all the weak, UNI
democratic, unfriendly Latin nations
between the Equator and Cape
Horn.
The strictly military problem does
not require 100000 men and, if it
did, it would be folly to provide
facilities to equip them in short or
der. War changes equipment too
fast. If you gear a tool up to equip
a million men in two or three years,
you can equip the next million in
six months. If you try to equip the
first 100000 in so short a time,
you risk mountains Of obsolete equip
ment and acres of idle plants.
A promise not to send Americans
abroad doesn't mean anything If
your policy invites foreign war.
The American people should not
be fooled into thinking that rearma-
ment is excellent" It is not. It
could not be. It would be miracle
if we began to get balanced equip
ment in 10 months, and this admins
tration is neither manned, equipped
nor organized to produce industrial
miracles.

III GERMAN WAR:
Air Murder

Terrific German air raids on east
ern England went on and on in end
less waves of bombers, protected
by fighting ships. German losses
were very heavy-at least 70 planes
in single week. But the German
airmen nearly potted King George
from the blue, and rumor circu-
lated all over England that they
had wounded Winston Churchill.
This proved untrue, however, for
Churchill escaped, in southeastern
England, into an air raid shelter.
The British blasted back at France,
Belgium, Holland, and the Rhine
land, but were generally outnum-
bered. Man for man, their hard
boiled, long-service regulars were
much more effective than General
Goering's hot-shet youngsters, but
there the British advantage ended.
The British public, under fire, was
showing its usual courage and en-
durance. The very heart was blast
ed out of one English city, which
remained unnamed. CHASTITY time
bombs tan eHectlVe form OF aSSaS-
sination) were being dropped by
both sides, and each side blamed it
on the other.
F-W-I08
The Germans were producing a
brand-new fighter plane, called F-W-
1913. It was good for 400 miles per
hour, as against the 1877 of the Brit
ish Spitfires, and the $50 of the Brit
ish Hurricanes. The new German
freak had the propeller in back, to
push, instead of in front, to pull.
It was Flying wing design, with
no tail, but with a couple Of sticks
running back to support the two
rudders. 1t had two cannon, mount
ed out on the wings, and four ma
chine-guns, stuck in the nose Of the
pilots cabin. 1t was heavily ar
mored, and outweighed the Hurri-
canes and Spitfires, the two stand
ard types it has to fight against.
F-W-198 was monoplane worth
watching.

Trophy for the best Irish terrier, and
winning the Spokesman Trophy for
her owner Kelvin Collean won the
honor of best Irish terrier in 1898.
Outstanding in the Breed.
Spokesman Is a name to conjure
with in Irish terrier breeding. His
get have been outstanding in the
breed, as evidenced by the record in
the show ring. For two years, 1887
and 1898. the Irish Terrier Club of
America offered huge silver cup
to the breeder whose dogs made the
most point wins during the year, at
least two puppies from one litter
competing. Both years, this trophy
was won by Mrs. M. Carter Hall of
Washington, with litters by Spokes-
man. The first litter by Spokesman
out of Princess Kathen II, included
Ahtram Scandal and Ahtram
Swashbuckler. The second litter out
Of Kilvara Mavis, a litter sister Of
Princess Kathen II, included Ahtram
Ladyslipper and Amtram Peggy.
