The bird-and-snake fascination
with which the American people
are keeping their eyes glued on the
terrible drama now stalking across
Europe is causing dangerous neg
lect of our own affairs.
Only about week now remains
before the Republican party meets
in Philadelphia to choose its can
1idate for the presidency. Three
weeks after that the Democratic
party meets for the same purpose.
At the moment it is OF course
true tina. the present and future
relations of the United States to
the rest of the world are the most
important concern of the people.
Yet the president chosen this fall
will be at the head of the govern
ment for four years. 1t is highly
unlikely that the present war Will
continue that long. The incoming
president will be faced with heavy
responsibilities, not only to pilot the
American ship through the present
highly dangerous Shoal waters of a
world at war, but to chart course
in the new and undiscovered seas
which will oper. before us when
the war is over. Of these we know
nothing and can guess little. except
that whatever the results OF the
war. they will almost certainly be
different from anything we have
known before.
Therefore the election of the
president is not less important but
more important than when only
domestic issues are,to the fore. There
will be plenty of domestic issues in
the postwar period, and the TACT
that they are temperorarily OBJ
scured by the war does not mean
that they will not come strongly to
the fore by 1914.
Nobody can be elected president
until he has first been nominated
So the current disregard of the
nominating conventions is unfOrtu-
nate.
Neither party can afford at this
critical time to nominate any bul
the man it believes best-fitted tt

waters. Back room compromises ant

Waking up suddenly from our long

ingS We have probably suffered the
biggest shock in our history, from seeing
first how small our world is and how
beset with dangers.
But there is evidence from all sides
that we can take it. Preparations for
self-defenSe are going ahead at a rate
which only week or two ago would
have seemed impossible.
Europe, as Mr. Hoover was observing
rather truly some years ago, is poor
house" and is now waging costly war on
its increasingly shaky credit. America
collectively is rich beyond the dreams of
the Old World no matter how poor some
of us may feel individually. We have
the resources, material and human, to
do what has to be done, and we have the
organizing ability.
We do not know yet what is going to
be required of US before all this trouble
in Europe is settled, if it is ever settled.
Just where We are going from here no.

We can only see that we must act
swiftly for safety and give material help
and encouragement to our hardpressed
sister democracies. This much we will
do and are doing
If, with the resources we can give
them, the allies cannot stem the naZi
tide and save the last two democraces
in the Old World, then we will be the on

LOOKING UPWARD
FOR YOUTH
Nevada State JournaD

N-NSNdud oldte JOuIldlJ
Estimates that about $4,000 young
men and women will be graduated from
colleges and universities this year. and
about l,150O0O from high schools and
academies, are produced by the census
of the secondary and higher seats Of
learning in the United States.
Almost all the college graduates and
about one-half of the high school gradu-
ates will look for jobs And the chances
of finding permanent jobs have been
declared better for them this year than
last. The 1910 annual job survey by
one of the life insurance companies shows
that in two-thirdS Of the colleges and
universities the call for June graduates
is greater than year ago. More than
three fourthS of these institutions expect
that three-fourths of their June jobseek-
ing graduates will be placed by the end
of the year.
A survey Of colleges shows that 80
per cent believe that at least one-half
of their graduates will have regular jobs
before the end Of summer. Hopeful teS-
timony comes also from CCC headQuar-
tiers in Washington: Last month about
80 per cent more enrolleeS than IN the
same month last year were discharged in
order that they might take jobs.
The depression has been particularly
hard on young persons because many
highly skilled workers We're thrown out
of employment When jobs We're to be
filled. those with experience had first
call. But now that the demand for skill
ed workers is fast eXhauSting the total
of supply and is believed about to exceed
it, many plants may find it advisable and
necessary to take on the youthful un-
skilled for training.
1t would not be strange if there should
be growing realization by June grldu-
ates that wages in a work shirt are bet
ter than mere hopes Of salary and pres
tige in a white collar job.

WASHINGTON. June 19-Until
recently, Americans generally un-
derstood that they had probably
TIE best military planes in the
world. Lately the pendulum has
swung over to the other end of the
arc. so that folks are getting the
idea that Uncle Sans fighting
planes are hopeleSSly out of date
so outclassed that they might as
we'll be thrown away.
The truth lies between the two
extremes.
Most planes in the U. S. military
service today have been outmoded-
but they're still good airplanes and
could be extremely useful in war
If that weren't true, the allies
wouldn't be 50 anxious to get them
OLD PURSUIT SHIPS
STILL USEFUL
A good illustration is the pur-
suit plare-the plane which exists
to fight enemy planes. 1t has to
have high speed, SO that it can
make the enemy fight when he

have maneuverability, SO it can
handle itself wher the fight starts.
and it has to be able to climb fast.
A couple of years ago the Cur
tiss P-36 was the army's pet pur-
suit plane. For export, Curtiss sold
the rs, which was much the same
ship. The Spanish republicans
bought and used a lot of these and
found they were tops. The French
stocked up with quite number. and
in the early part of the present war
they beat the German Messer-
schmidts regularly.
Then the Germans brought out
a new Messerschmidt with a 40
mile speed adantage-and the 75s
had to be taken out of front line
service because they no longer
could force fight on the Germans
when the Germans didn't want one.
But the IS still isn't useless. If
the situation is such that your enc

nv must attack and defeat your
fighting planes in order to carry
out his mission, disadvantage in
speed doesn't hurt you. The rs can
still maneuver as we'll as the Mes
serschmidt, and out-climb it to boot
hence for strictly defensive pur-
poses it's a perfectly good ship. It's
obsolescent-but not obsolete.
FAMOUS "STUKAS"
ARE "ERSATZ'
The famed German StukaS. or
dive bombers, are another case in
point.
Many of these, experts here sus-
pect, are simply out-of-date attack
planes. For ordinary purposes. they

In the U. S. air force. this type
of work would be done by the light
bomber. Air corps experts point out
that a plane which was out of date
for ordinary high altitude bombing
missions could still fill this role
we'll.
STILL GOOD
FOR SOMETHING

classed. but 100 per cent efficient if
its lighters were superior to the
enemy's.

THE AIR SCHOOL

The young men of Imperial Valley to-
day are being given such an opportunity
as they may never again have, and GER
tainly have never had before. 1t is no
compliment to the young men that only
comparatively few of them have taken
advantage of the opportunity.
1t is inherent in the ground school now
being conducted at the junior college as
a part of the federal governments plan
to train civilian airplane pilots. Through
the school, the young people are given
the chance to get training free which
otherwise would cost them hundreds of
dollars.
1t is true the aviation training pro-
gram is a part of the national defense
plan-but the ability to pilot an air
plane is just as worthwhile in peace
time as in wartime. When the emergency
of today is over, the training many young
men are now getting will provide some of
them with steady employment, others
with an enviable knowledge
The young man who fails to grasp
such an opportunity is indeed asleep to
his future as well-it may be-as to the
future of his country.
Those who are taking the chance Of
fered them today will provide the lead
ers of tomorrow-.as much because Of the
initiative they show as for any other
reason.
