he told the conference of mayors
at st. Louis in February.
The war took on a holy aspect
to the secretary in the spring. God
help us, God forgive u.s." he prayed,
'if we don't bear our snare in the
fight for the control of the seas
against human slavery" Concluding
a speech in Washington, he en-
phaSized that the war would call
for sacrifices matching those made
by any American generation that
has gone before. 1T is going to take
all that we have" he concluded.
Il humbly pray God that we
shall match up, with our courage

said we were among those who op-
pose, and we should make our op-

From there, it was only a step to
his declaration at the end of June:

WASHINGTON TOP SOIL
Women Investors in America,
which you probably never heard of,
is lobbying in Washington for re-
peal of the lease-lend act. More
than 300 manufacturers have filed
claims with the War Department,
asking for tax allowances and five
year amortization of defense plant
expansions, but SO far fewer than
100 have been granted. The Army
may hire 10000 civilians for duty
in Army camps so the soldiers can
concentrate on war. TWenty-six in

the Russo-German war is Charlie

strange double features to inter-

Speaking of the big scrap in
Eastern Europe, prominent Hol-

Then there was the producer who
called in writer the other day and
bawled him out for putting stale

war of the isolationists against the
cx-Republican, ex-Army colonel,
Secretary of the Navy Frank Knox
probably won't reach the shooting
stage. even if the Navy itself has
accidentally on purpose already TAX
en- a shot or two at the Nazis.
When the congressman, however,
get Colonel Knox on the spot Tor a
little questioning by the Senate Ma
val Affairs Committee on just what
has been going on in the Atlantic,
they may do little shouting about
the amazing log which the genial
secretary with the Sunny Jim grin
has written on his shake down
cruises into the uncharted seas of
oratory and his test flights In trial
balloons.
His record of war-like utterances,
climaxed by his most recent and
most amazing statement that the
". Ndty bitdi piiN nv
lantic of the German menace" has
left Washington gasping. There is
a little talk of impeachment, but
that's wild, too. The net score to
date is that not once has Secretary
Knox had to use parachute or life
preServer to get back to the safe
harbor of his desk, from which base
he just grins broadly, saying Moth

The answer is that he is not 60
ing to resign at all They'll have to
torpedo him out of the job. He
loves it. And he has been ship
wrecked out on limb. and had his
bow ties fired across before.
Though he is still running an un-
scheduled race with cotton-mouth-
cd Senator Claude E. Pepper Of
Tallahassee, Fla, as to who can
make the most warlike speeches,
there isn't anything new in Knox's
line, as a cursory examination of
his speeches the last lo months will
show.
In August he was talking about
the international brigands.' In
October, addressing an FBI gradu
ating class, he was already to go,
steam up and bunker full of coal.
IF fight is forced upon u.s." he
said, I'VE shall be ready for them.
We have never lost war yet"
A month later before the New
England council, he paid his respects

and that speaks louder than words. =
In January, before the House For
