Prevailing sentiment in this country
about the war has seemed to us well
defined. 1t has been to give all possible
material aid to Britain, Greece and
China in the way of supplies and mu-
nitions, equipment and machines, but
not to. participate in actual military
and naval operations. The president
has been supported in mis- foreign
policy and in such moves as the lend
lease bill because he has repeatedly
expressed himself as believing in that
policy as the most effective means of
defending this country
So far as we know there is no evil
dence that the president has changed
his mind on that point. So far as we
can Judge sentiment; the people on
the whole have not changed their DO
sition as to the proper national policy
From various points come occasional
individual opinions that we should de-
clare war on the dictators. From the
lsolationist side come more frequent
predictions that we will declare war in
short time. Those predictions tend
to create a feeling that war is inev-
liable which may in turn strengthen
the demand for war.
From other Americans comes the
demand that we furnish naval conveys
to take goods through the submarine
blockade into England. Positive predic-
tons that we will soon convoy freight
ers to England come frequently from
opponents of that policy. That, too,
tends to produce belief in the neces-
sity Of such policy.
So far as we know the president has
not changed his position, publicly
stated, that he is not in favor of con-
voying ships into the war zone 1t is
still the majority opinion among our
people, we firmly believe, that we
should not convoy such shipments
through the blockade
But there is danger Of war senti-
ment being built up by the process of
convincing people that war cannot be
avoided. For such a danger the ex-
tremists on both sides Of the argument
are responsible.
1t is time that we who are in the
middle ground should speak more ag-
gressively for the well defined course
we have so far followed Of giving the
utmost aid to the democracies Short
of actual participation In the fighting.

Fresh Evidence Weakens
Arena Staying Theory
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, April ia theory
that John F. Arenas editorial at
tacks on pro-Fascists led to the slay-
ing of the Italian language news
paper editor weakened today on the
basis of fresh evidence.
Police Sergt. George Brady re-
ported that among papers found in
Mr.. Arenas Office yesterday was a
copy of letter the editor had sent
in 1899 to Joseph Goebbels, German
propaganda chief.
Sergt. Brady said that in the letter
Mr.. Arena had offered his services
IN behalf of the German cause. The
officer also said he learned from Mr..
Arenas secretary, Miss Betty Eich.
that the editor had been on friendly
terms with the German consulate in
Chicago.
In recent issues of his paper.
La Tribuna, Mr.. Arena published
editorials against what he termed
"Fifth-Column Activities" by a
member of the Chicago italian con-
Sulate.
Police Capt. Patrick O'Connell said
there were so many clues that in
vestigators have been unable to de-
termine the exact motive for the
murder of the editor, who was slain
by two gunmen on a street We'd

she concluded her needlework by
working into one corner the follow
ing record, which Mrs. Cannon dis
played:
Mary Elizabeth Aud was born
the 10th day of June in the year
of our Lord, 1928"
But there is more to the story
than has been told.
The bedspread came about
through a certain red dress that
most conservative young girls OF
13 would consider too loud for
street wear. 1t was given Mary
Elizabeth Aud by her father, mer-
chant and shoemaker of Southern
Maryland, for watching his store
while he went to Baltimore.
Baking at her fathers choice of
apparel, Mary Elizabeth promptly
acquired the necessary yardage of
white and green cambria and turned
the red dress into spread-a color
full affair equally suited to four
poster or modern inner-spring.
Twenty years ago, when Mary
Elizabeth was on her death bed, she
called for her daughter Annie The
spread must be kept for posterity
Annie was the child of the family
who would take pride in such an
heirloom.
