was brought clearly to the sur

OUR SAFETY SOUGHT

Our whole program of aid for
the democracies has been based
on hard-headed concern for our
own security and for the kind of
safe and civilized world in which
we wish 10 live. Every dollar of
material we send helps to keep
the dictators away from our own
hemisphere. Every day that they
are held off gives us time TO
build more guns and tanks and
planes and ships.
I'VE have made no pretenSe
about our own self-interest in this
aid Great Britain understands IT
and so does Nazi Germany.
And now-after year-Britain
still fights CALAMITY, on far
flung line We have doubled and
redoubled our vast production. in
creasing, month by month, our
material supply of tools of war fol
ourselves and Britain and China
and eventually for all the democ-
racieS.
The supply of these tools will
not fail-it will increase.
With greatly augmen d
strength, the United States and
the other American republics now
chart their course in the situation
Of today.
Your government knows what
terms Hitler. if victorious would
impose. They are. indeed, the only
terms on which he would accept
a so-called negotiated peace.

The other is the magnificent de-
Tense of China. which will. i have

prevent the Axis from winning
control of the seas by ships and

The Axis powers can never
achieve their objective of world
domination unless they first oh
tain control of the seas. This Is
their supreme purpose today, and
TO achieve it. they must capture
Great Britain.
"They could then have the
power to dictate TO the Western
Hemisphere. No spurious argu-

no false pledges like those given
by Hitler at Munich. can deceive
the American people into believ-

would not, with Britain defeated,
close in relentleSsly on this hemi-

But if the Axis Powers fail TO
gain control of the seas, they are
certainly defeated. Their dreams
of world domination will then go
by the board; and the criminal
leaders who started this war will
suffer inevitable disaster.

That is why they are rlsklng

Tariff walls-Chinese walls of
iSolation-would be futile. Free
dom to trade is essential to our
economic life. We do not eat all
the food we can produce: we do
not burn all the oil we can pump;
we do not use all the goods we
can manufacture. 1t would not be
an American wall to keep Nazi
goods out; il would be a Nazi wall
TO keep us IN.

Bedtime Stories
By THORNTON w. BURGESS

1t wasn't long before the story
that Bowser the Hound was no more
reached Reddy Fox. There are
very few things said or done in the
Green Forest or on the Green
Meadows that Reddy doesn't know
about as soon as anybody. This
time he got the story directly from
Sammy Jay himself. Sammy knew
just what such news would mean to
Reddy. and although he and Reddy
are not the best of friends, Sammy
couldn't bear to think of ANYBODY
else telling Reddy such important
news. Reddy listened, and on his
sharp face was a look of great
doubt. DO you mean to tell me
that BowSer the Hound is dead, and
that Old Man Coyote had some
thing to do with killing him?" de-
manded Reddy.
Sammy Jay looked a little con-
fused. Il didn't say just that" said
he. You can believe me or not.
Something has happened to Bowser
the Hound and Old Man Coyote
knows about it. Anybody can guess
the rest. 1 don't believe you'll
ever be bothered by Bowser the
Hound again. I'm not saying that
I don't hope you'll be-" added
Sammy mischievously, as he flew
away.
Reddy Fox sat down to think
over this great piece of news. 1t
might be true and it might not.
Reddy is altogether too clever to
take things for granted just be-
cause others say they are so.
IF Sammy Jay hadn't said that
Old Man Coyote knows what has
become of BoWSer the Hound I
might believe that something really
has happened to him. I know Old
Man Coyote! Yes, stree. I know
Old Man Coyote. 1t would be quite
like him to start a story of this
KIND Just to get me into trouble.
Still. if anything has happened to
BoWSer I can't afford to let Old
Man Coyote be the first one to see
II there is any way of getting into
Farmer Browns henhouSe. l think
I'll trot about a little and find out
what others know thought Reddy.
So Reddv Fox trotted about here
and there in a careless sort of way.
but all the time his sharp ears were
wide open for any stray bits of
gossip he might OVerhear. Wherever
he went he heard the story that
Bowser the Hound had disappeared.
He heard several stories to this ef-
feet, but the story he heard often
est and the story that was most
generally believed was that Old
Man Coyote had himself killed
BOWser the Hound This, Reddy
didn't believe. In the first place he
is jealous of Old Man Coyote and
never is willing to credit Old Man
Coyote with being able to do a
thing which he himself cannot do.
In the second place he was well
enough acquainted with Old Man
Coyote to know that the latter was,
like himself, never willing to stand
up and fight. IT don't believe the
whole of that yarn, but I guess
there's enough truth in it to make
it worth while for me to investi-
gate" decided Reddy.
