AT TER MANY YEARS
By E. T. SHORT

SHOKI
tween Germany and the United
States. II seemed that there
was a little group of willful
men"-just a handful-one of
whom was the late Wesley
Jones, then a senator from
Washington, who held out
against the measure, and we
began to lambast them for their
lack Of Americanism.
They were outvoted, Of course,
and We were in a state of war
with Germany. Somebody wrote
a couple of good marching
songs-"Where do we go from
here boys, where do we go from
here" and that other about Go
ing over" and I'VE won't come
back till its over over there"
Then the bands began play
ing and soon almost everybody
was in Herbert Hoover's food
conservation organization, a
liberty loan team, a member of
a draft board or bling drafted.
Those who thought we were too
quick on the trigger were put
where they couldn't talk too
much, and soon we were sending
shiploads of men, ammunition and
food over to Europe to make the
world safe for democracy.
You know what happened.
The reaction from the boom
caused by the war industries
caused the greatest panic the
world ever experienced. De-
mocracy, as far as the old
world was concerned, went
where certain hard boiled
commercialists said business
had gone.
This discussion might 90 on
but the story wouldn't change.
Read today's headlines. Com
pare them with what appeared
on the front pages two years
ago. Then think back to 1917
and draw your own conclusions.
After having had about a
quarter of century to think
1t over. are We again going to
be foolish enough to believe that
we can do anything about
Strengthening out he mess in
Europe? Won't We be doing
a pretty good job If We fix the
weak spots in the fences around
the home range and incidentally
take a look once in a while to
see that the powder Is dry, just
in case some rustler might try
TO break in?

Q. Is Postmaster-Gen. James
A. Farley a Catholic, a Metho-
dist or an Episcopalian?

pests that annoy dogs.

"TAs poscer to tar Is the po~sr to destroy"

Il IS not possible nor in conformance with concep
ton of neutrality construct difference between public
opinion and the official attitude of the state-Naz Propa
eanda Minister Joseph Goebbels.

Los Angeles with a wife, child
