PEA

We who remember the hectic
DAYS of World War No. l, both
in the making and in the awful
realization of that awful dream
from the maddened mind of kal-
wilhelm, are again experience
ing the same forebodings tn a t
came to us when Kaiser Bill was
irving to impress his crazy ideas
upon mankind. .
Today we are confronted with
crazier ideas that were concocted
in the befuddled mind of Adolf
Hitler, who is trying his best to
erase the better part of the hui
man race from the face OF the
earth.
Adolf Hitler seemingly has no
sense of of right and he seems to
be guided only by greed. With
his lust for power he has no more
regard for justice and for human
ity than the barbarians of old.
Small nations with democratic
principals must cease to exist, il
they stand in Hitler's way. They
must give up every democratic
idea, in the event this autocrat
finds it to his interest to make
them embrace his system of gov
eminent.
He has run roughshod +
France and the Scandinavian coun'
tries. He has confiscated the prop
critics of the Jews simply because
they were Jews and not because
they had done him OF Germany
any wrong. He has disregardee
the fact that Jesus Christ was a
Jew and he has even gone Sc
far as to try and stamp out the
very foundations of Christianity
I hope and I pray, and, in fact
I 60 SC far as to predict, that Hit
Ter can not 60 much further in his
Goddess manner, for already the
handwriting is appearing on the
wall and that handwriting can be
read by every one. It reads:
"Hitler has been weighed and
found wanting. His days are mum.

There is no power on earth that

for a loop. 1t starred the English

motherhood seemed the last words
on the subjects then. They set up
signposts which will be followed in

Man bout
Manhattan
By George Tucker

NEW YORK, Sept. At you
walk into almost any store in the
midtown sector and wait a rea.
sonable length of time you are al.
most certain to see a young wo.
man canvassing public opinion as
to the presidential possibilities for
November.
We ran into several in one day,
although in only one instance
were we able to ascertain whom
they represented. This was in a
mems haberdashery on west 49th
street, and a nice-looking young
woman came in with a brief-caSe
and a lot of blanks to be filled out
and quickly collared one Of the
clerks. She represented Fortune
magazine.
We didn't know what was going
on until we heard her say: DO
you know why you are going to
vote for Roosevelt"
The man said, We'll, it isn't a
question of greater production IN
this country. You could treble the
production over night. The ques-
ton is to find some way to get
what we already have into the
hands of the people. l think Roose-
welt is working along those lines
ALI of his reforms are directed TO-
ward that end. For some reason
I simply believe he is right, and
that is why I am going to vote lf
him."
All the while this was going on
the young woman was writing lf'
iously. She asked a lot of other
questions which we couldn't hear
much to our regret. Finally she
said, "Thank you," gave MN a
big smile, and put her papers back
into the brief case.
"Who's winning we wanted "
know.
She laughed. I'm not permit
ted to tell you. Anyway, Whats
true of Manhattan prooaDy
wouldn't be true in some o'nef
place." She went out the oool,
swinging her case. These gnS

ARMY SPEEDS UP
PLANE BUILDING
Official Red Tape Cut to
Get 1894 Planes to
Manufacturers
BY MACK JOHNSON

United Press Staff Correspondent
Washington, Sept. 11.-CUP)-The
army cut official red tape today to
place a $1,251 10000 program for
1884 airplanes in the hands Of 81
manufacturers.
Through emergency "speed-up"
letters the War Department advised
the aircraft makers, including Ford
Motor Company, that they were
down for contracts involving thou
sands of planes, engines and pro-
pellerS and to proceed to get the
tools and materials they will need
for the $1,251 100000 project.
Official orders will be executed
later in the regular, time-consuming
fashion, but, by that time tools and
other equipment, one of the most
important phases of production, will
be ready.
The tool up" authorizations were
for 14,394 airplanes, costing $817,-
100000; 28,282 engines, costing $377,-
100000 and propellerS and blades
costing $57,0O0,0O0.
They put the army well on sched-
ule toward its goal of $4,000 planes
in service by the spring of 1912. The
army has 5000 planes on hand and
5,245 on order.
Funds Are Ready
Funds for the new program come
from the 1921 900, 900 supplemental
defense appropriation signed by
President Roosevelt Monday.
The War Department did not dis
close how many or what types of
planes each manufacturer would
build. The list indicated great
number of the new planes would be
fighters and bombers.
The Army and Navy hope to put
IS, 900 planes in service by sometime
in 1912. Together they have 1874 on
order under signed contracts and
5,079 on hand.
Meantime a $150,O00,000 housing
program for defense industrial work.
ers was ready for Senate considera-
ton. The House sent the bill over
late yesterday on a voice vote.
Congress already has provided
$100,000,000 for housing of the ex-
panded armed forces in the supple
mental defense bill. The new pro-
gram would be carried out by the
Federal Works Agency with author
ity to call on other Federal units
such as the housing authority for
assistance.
Chairman Fritz Lanham, D., Tex,
of the Public Building Committee,
told the House the facilities must
be supplied promptly to avoid
disease epidemics bred by the mush-
rooming of defense area populations.

NEW PLAN SAVES
Ia MINUTES PER RAID

SO to keep production up IN the
face of these new German
aerial on slaughts, factories are
now employing an air raid alarm
technique patterned after the sys-
tenn used so successfully for two
and half years in the Republican
factories at Segunto during the
Spanish Civil War.
This will keep British production
at a high level despite great air
raids. Workers, instead of leaving
for the shelters when the raid siren
is sounded for the civilians of
town, stay at their benches until
men at the observation post atop
the factory signal that enemy planes
are within sight. Then the workers
march to the basement shelter.

is saved. When a publis alarm
