Modern War

One of the high commanders of
the United States army gives out
the idea that the tendency of mod
ern fighting is toward action by in
dividuals and small groups. Also
that a great deal depends upon the
power of leadership possessed by the
lower officers. The pictures of old
time battle show long lines of SOL
diers shooting at similar long lines
of the enemy. Modern war is some
thing very different from that.
The conventional drilling seen on
the training fields before former
wars no doubt had its uses in teach
ing men discipline and united action.
Little of that kind of thing is likely
to be seen in modern warfare,
where the individual soldier is ap-
parently thrown to large extent on
his own resources. If the lesser
officers have initiative and resource
fulness, they will organize and lead
a striking power that few goose
stepping armies will be able to re-
sist.

IF THE SELECTION Of Earle D
Wiley to be the next Secretary of
State is a criterion by which to Judge,
Governor-elect Walter W. Bacon will
make wise selections in the numer-
GUS positions to be filled by him
during the next four years. No ap-
pOintment in recent years will re-
ceive larger commendation from all
Delawareans than that of Mr.. Wiley
TO be Secretary of State. Well quail
flied in every respect by years of
faithful and efficient service in
plaees of trust, Mr.. Wiley will fit in
well with the new GovernOr-elect's
program. A lawyer by profession, a
former Judge of Common Pleas
Court and an Assistant Attorney
General for Kent county for three
terms, he knows Delaware and Del
awareans. GOvernOr-elect Bacon is
to be congratulated upon the an
nouncement of his first appointment
And so are the people Of Delaware,
regardless of party afiliatiOn. Mr..
Wiley will capably fulfill all the
duties of his important office.

The Political Rally

Has the day of the political rally
gone by? Will it be a minor feature
in future campaigns, like the torch
light parades which were formerly
held in almost every contested CEN
ter. but now are more or less rare?
Rallies addressed by the leading
candidates of the nation are still
crowded. Enormous assemblies have
gathered for many of these meetings,
and have yelled and cheered with a
fervor SURPRISING the emotion OF
former campaigns.
But there have been many re-
ports of rallies addressed by candi-
dates not so prominent, which drew
only thin turnout. 1t is disappOint-
ing to a candidate to come to a hall
where he hopes to see the seats
filled with hopeful and shouting
rooters, and see only a hundred
people, perhaps less, scattered about
a room occupied mainly by empty
seats.
People used to attend the regular
rallies of their own political organ
izatiOn as a duty of citizenship.
Now is the time for all good men
to come to the aid Of the party" was
the old saying. And they did. In
the days before radios you could fill
a hall in almost any town, if you
presented fair list of speakers.
Today the political Oratory of the
nation flows like a great river thru
the radios. The newspapers print
leading speeches in full, and sum-
maries of many more. The people
feel they can get all the news and
important utterances without NOV
ing from their chairs.
There was an enthusiasm about
the old rally that many of us miss.
1t was something to be able to see
what the candidate looked like, and
how he acted. Every political cam
paign is an educational course in1
If people come through
such a campaign knowing no more
about government than before, they
have neglected their home work.

Established Credit

There is a joke going around abOat
the newlywed wife who said she
thought the bank would lend money
on notes. So she sent her maid
down with a note saying she wanted
to borrow 500, and they refused to
give it to her.
There are some people who do
not understand business and credit
any better than that. Many of them
want to start some business, and
borrow some money. Ordinarily they
have to give some security for the
loan.
Ability to borrow money depends
in part on a persons reputation. If
he has paid his bills regularly, and
worked steadily on his job, his
chances of obtaining credit are inn
proved. The would-be borrower who
can show a bank deposit and prove
that he has saved money, has a bet
ter chance of establishing credit
ON which he can start a business or
buy a home.
Milford chronicle., 1940-11-22
Propaganda Schools

One Of The worst phases Of life Il
the dletator ruled countries Is ths
grip the dictators get on youth. The
schools of these countries become
propaganda Institutions, which inn
press certain ideas on the mind Of
youth. Young people have plastic
minds. which can be moulded into
almost any shape under sufficient
pressure.
II is represented to these boys
and girls that their countries are on
the verge Of a great advance, which
is going to make their country the
most wonderful land on earth.
Young people are emotional, and can
be rallied to support some national
cause if it is presented in a heroic
light. They are taught that it is
their privilege to sacrifice them
selves if necessary to produce a
grander country, and that they will
be forever hOnored as heroes if they
give their lives to this cause.
Adolf Hitler points to his victor
les, and he holds out glorious
dreams of better days for Germany |
if these can be held and extended. |
So the youth of his country go
singing into battle, careless of fate,
if they can only carry on the banner
of their adored hero.
In Russia the young people are
up in similar way in be-
half of Communist ideals. Only the
there does not seem so
1t did not seem as If the
Russians were fighting with any
great enthusiasm when they were
rushing poor Finland.
If the United States is to hold
IS own in a world where these pow
,rful men can incite their young
'eople to give their lives for a bad
ause, they need warm enthusiasm
# their own. They need to feel the
,lory of American ideals, and should
ie far more enthusiastic in support
+ freedom and liberty than any Nazi
Outh can be in planting their feet
N the necks of poor conquered peo-
lie.

The Unknown Soldier

When the World war ended, each
of the warning nations planned to
honor the grave of one unknown
soldier who had given his life in a
war which was supposed to lift hu-
manity to a new level of happiness.
On the Armistice day just passed,
the United States was the only gov
ernment which fired salutes to honor
the grave of its unknown soldier. In
all the rest, the hopes and dreams
of 20 years ago seemed to have gone
up in bitter smoke.
The unknown soldiers grave was
regarded as a symbol that the whole
nation united to honor every man
who laid down his life for his coun-
try. 1t viii take more than willing
ness to sacrifice ones life to realize
the ideal for which the unknown
soldier died. It will take new kind
of world, in which wrongs shall be
righted. and nations agree to live in
fraternity and mutual helpfulness.

The Great Helping Hand

The American Red Cross comes to
your door, at least through news
paper appeals, and asks if you are
willing to help its grand work for
the coming year.
Do you realize how that helping
hand is by your side every day,
ready to aid If some misfortune
comes that you cannot meet with
your own power? If some great
hurricane or fire should sweep away
the homes of your city, soon the Red
Cross would be there, perhaps caring
for you as you lie on some bed of
pain.
Every day those intelligent. re-
sOurceful Red Cross nurses and
helpers are exploring the dark
paths of life, to help the suffering
out Of their misery. They carry on
what is really a great national uni
yersity Of education, to show people
how they can avoid disease, and es-
cape the most serious dangers Of
life. This great helping hand needs
the support of all Of us. If its work
is to continue in full, and meet the
great needs for which it cares.
