announcement that Berlin is hence
forth to receive a nightly visitation
from British bombing planes. Con-
tinuance of such attacks will be far
more convincing to the deluded
denizens of the enemy capital than
the mendaciouS assurances of Nazi
propaganda that British morale is
at the cracking point and that the
Royal Air Force has yielded the
mastery of the skies" Nor can the
BerlinerS, as they seek refuge in
underground air shelters night after
night, derive much consolation from
their governments false claim that
British loomberS are engaged in
"murderous" activities against harm

ing's death-dealing squadrons op-
Grating over England are on
errands of legitimate war
We are told that Hitler himself
now takes shelter from British air
raids in the cellar of his ornate
Wilhelmstrasse chancellery. The
Fuehrer, it is related, is not inspired
by fear, but desires only to illustrate
the wisdom of elementary precau-
tions in times of extreme danger.
Whatever the motive, his action pro-
videS graphic proof that the air war
has at length been brought home to
the Nazis at the very seat of their
power. 1t is indisputably shown that
the Royal Air Force, outmatched in
numbers of planes and personnel,
but not in skill and daring, is able
not only to hold its own in home
skies, but to conduct from the
heights above Berlin and other key
places in Germany a retaliatory
offensive of important dimensions.
In light of the spirit and record
now distinguishing the British cam
paign aloft, it is manifestly prema-
ture to assume that THE tight little
isles doom is sealed, or even immi-
nent. With every bomb that falls
upon Berlin devastating evidence to
the contrary is supplied.

TESTED PATHS
By the Right Rev. James E. Freeman D. d. ILL., d. D. c. L.,
Bishop OF Washington.

In the ancient prophecy Of jeremiah,
the 9Th chapter, 14th and 18th verses,
are these words: They have healed also
the hurt of the daughters of my people
slightly, saying, Peace. peace; when there
is no peace Thus saith the Lord, Stand
ye in the ways, and see and ask for the
old paths, where is the good way, and
walk therein, and ye shall find rest unto
your souls"
The tragic happenings of life proceed
from conditions largely of our own max
ing. There is logic in events and what
men SOW they inevitably reap. Without
due reflection upon the causes that have
brought the world to its present tragic
impasse, or the recognition of the evils
that have effected such dire conditions,
our prayers for peace must prove futile.
We Of America, in our cloistered security,
freed from the horrors of the European
strife, may not with SNUG complacency
acquit ourselves of all blame for what has
come upon the world. We are not impec-
cable, nor are we so blameless that we

the ills that aff1ict the nations of the Old
World Any consistent appraisal of our
life discloses sins and weaknesses that,
unchecked. must inevitably lead us to
misfortune and disaster. Privileged and
secure as we seem to be, such a tragic
condition as we are confronted with to-
day makes us realize that We have de-
parted from paths that were paths Of
rectitude, and from ways and practices
that were wholesome decent and virtu-
GUS. Individuals and nations do not grow
strong and survive because of their gen.
ius, their skill or their prowess. They do
not guarantee to themselves security and
peace because of their strength in men
and armaments.
There are threatening evils in our
world that must be resisted and repelled
and it would be the part of folly to regard
them with carefree indifference. On the
other hand, it would be a greater folly
to believe that men and armament alone
guarantee peace and security. There is
such thing as morale that plays a con-
spicuous role in the life of the individual
or the body corporate. Without a sus-
tanned morale, with moral and spiritual
courage, in fine without the strength

Eqyptiun Predicument

The prospects are dim, we can be
thankful, of Egypt's needing the
warnings in the German press for
Egyptian severance of the tie to
England. Italy's active pursuit Of
the war in Northeastern Africa,
across the western Egyptian desert,
is in the main thrust at the British
Empire; but at the same time it is
a thrust at Egypt, which, in the years
Immediately before the war, was
reaching a position of great strength
and leadership among the nations of
the Near East. This strength and
leadership she owed in large measure
to the sympathy of England, with
whom she formed a defensive al
lance in 1885, The Fascist cry in
Italy of mare nostrum" is itself a
threat to Egypt. The Mediterranean
Sea, which this slogan suggests
should be turned into an Italian lake,

Rome so long as Egypt held Medi-
terranean shore line.
So Egypt has reason to be friendly
to England, despite some very slight
dissident opinion in Cairo, and dis
trustful of Italy and her axis ally,
Germany. Egypt's own tiny army,
about twenty-five thousand men, is
of small consequence in the matter
of halting the Italian advance across
the north from Libya toward the
rich prize of Alexandria and the
richer, ultimate goal of the Suez
Canal. Weak Egypt, then, does not

the better part of valor. Unfortu-
nately. the present Egyptian Prime
Minister, Hassan Sabry Pasha, is
not man of commanding strength.
But he can see where wisdom lies.
Italy wants the Suez. Between Italy
and the Suez. sits Egypt, and to gain
the Suez, Italy must gain Egypt.
The Egyptian campaign is part Of
the price the British are paying for
their failure to impede Italy's Ethi-
opian adventure in 1885. The one
route by which Italy can reach
Ethiopia with the ease desirable for
that African country's development
is the Suez. The Suez is England's
artery of empire to the east. The
Suez could be Italy's artery of en-
pire to the south. Should England
lose the Suez, her Mediterranean
fleet would lose it's line of supply
from the east, shipping route of
greater Importance now than the
Straits of Gibraltar. Effective dis
couragement of Italy in 1885 perhaps
would have saved Ethiopia, prevented
the establishment of Italian strength
in Africa and nullified the Italian
ambition for an artery of empire.
Yet, even so, the distance of the in
road the Italian troops have made
into Egypt already is relatively slight.
The Italian march will never be far
from the range of the British naval
ships in the Mediterranean. The
Italian Army in Africa is cut off by
the British Mediterranean fleet from
hope of major supplies from home.
Although the presence of 10000 Ital-
ian civilians in the Nile Valley
arouses a fearful suspicion, both
England and Egypt have reason for
confidence, the one of saving the
Suez, the other of saving her nation.

tions and a way of life in consonance
with such convictions, we face a grave
situation unequipped and unprepared.
There is widespread tendency today
to hasty and unreflected action. We are
in a mood to be stirred by our emotions
and our fears. The atmosphere is
charged with elements that tend to panic
and to actions that are unreasoned, hasty
and hence without plan and design. 1t
may be that day Of prayer, nay, days OF
constant prayer. may clarity our vision
and free us from the nervous tensions
that issue in the following of paths that
are unjustifed, unwise and wholly for
eign to our truest and best interests. We
must not lose our poise or our capacity to
decide our wisest course because of con-
ditions that lie outside our own borders
We will reckon with them, but we will
not abandon the ways and practices that
have led us to our present place of priv
ileged distinction. This world cannot
long be dominated or controlled by brute
force 1t takes something more than
mechanical armies and arrogant dicta-
tors to change the whole course of ma
tions and peoples. Life cannot De sus-
tanned by agencies. however strong, that
lack moral strength and moral courage.
Beyond all that We may do to add to
our armed forces on sea and land, We
have task within our own confines. TO
which We must address ourselves with
zeal and determination. 1t concerns our
moral and spiritual life; our resources
in men and women of high moral worth :;
our fitness to meet within our borders
evil tendencies and conditions that may
prove more threatening than any armed
forces from without. Internally We are
not prepared, and no glamour of wealth
or conceits of genius, or weight of arms
can make us fit to stay maladies that
may prove more harmful than a foreign
army.
A strong. steady persevering determi-
nation to better our ways, to reform our
habits to bring more Of consistency and
honesty and decency and self-respect into
every department of our life: these are
resolves that will give warrant to our
prayers To ask for the old paths where
is the good way, and to walk therein

:sfactions of life and to set forward the
