 What he has in mind is revealed in of his recent writings He thinks the antitrust laws should be rewritten, he will be able after trade unions instead of listic combinations of "Big Business"
 Mr. Arnold tried to do that without waiting for the laws be changed but the Supreme Court told him 100 per wrong. Naturally, he didn't like the courts attitude. Now Uncle Sams expense he proposes up iver- % in Washington teach lawyers that the suppress the trusts is to hamstring the labor unions
 The newspaper of this curious which Mr. Arnold undoubtedly approved coyy suggests that after the lawyers have completed the 'course Mr. Arnold will subject them examination.

 WASHINGTON, D. C.-An eight point program for broadening the social security act to provide for health insurance and to abandon the 5O-5O matching of Federal and state funds is recommended by Chairman Arthur J. Altmeyer, of the Social Security Board.
 MANY NEW PROBLEMS
 Asserting that the national defense program had created many new prob 1ems of insecurity, MT. Altmeyer told House committee studying worker migration that it was "more essential now than ever" to make progress in social security.
 MT. Altmeyer said that when the defense program arose some said there was no need for further advance ment of social gains. Then he re- marked that under similar circum- stances Great Britain had liberalized and extended its social security pro- gram and added: "That is what Brit ain has done when Britain was up against bombs.

The method of social insurance can be applied to the problems of health just as it already has been applied in the case of unemployment, old age and death.''
 Recalling that some persons had expressed concern that health security might lead to ''so- cialized medicine" Mir. Altmeyer said:

CONQUERED NATIONS

In spite of the tremendous military sue
cesses achieved by Germany in Europe, it is
pertinent to consider whether the NaZis are
spreading themselves out too thin, with the
possible result that they may have great diff
ficulties in keeping the conquered countries
under subsection indefinitely.
Besides the enormous number of men
required for active service in Germanys
armed forces, both on the fighting fronts and
en- the borders which might be subject to at
tack. such as the Russian frontier, great
bodies of troops are required to hold the oc-
cupied countries submissive to the German
regime.
There is not a single nation which has
beer brought under Hitler's rule since the
war began that would not revolt if there
were any possible chance of driving the
Germans out As it is, while open resist
ance is too dangerous, there are many re-
liable reports of sabotage and under-cover
opposition to the Nazis.
The mass of the people of Czech
oslovakia. Poland Belgium, Holland, Den
mark. Norway, France, Yugoslavia, and
majority of those of Rumania, Bulgaria
and even Italy, hate Hitler and all his
works. Although they are powerless now,
these great populations may some day find
way to obtain revenge for their virtual
enslavement.
Whether this shall come about in the
near or distant future will depend largely
on the survival of Britain. and Britain can
survive only through aid from the United
States in a measure immensely greater than
anything now in sight.
If the people of the world who oppose
Hitler could by some means be enabled to
rise against him, he would not last long.
Unfortunately. most Of them are helpless
while the rest. like those of America, seem
to lack the will and determination TO fight
to retain their freedom. lNIshfa< ffdI4

Editor, The Citizen:
There seems to be an agree
ment upon one thing by many
whose thoughts run in very diff
ferent channels otherwise. This
is, that we are approaching the
end of an era, or a system. or i1-
ternational relations as we have
known them. Few seem to expect
return to normally; to the
conditions we enjoyed few years
ago.
Hitler has his opinion as TO
what that future condition shall
be; Lindbergh. Hoover. Wiilkie
and Roosevelt all have very earn
est. divergent and doubtless very
sincere ideas as TO how they
would shape the future: but, only
in one place do / find a definite
plan laid down. with definite as
surances that conformity to it will
insure peace and prosperity for a
nation: and that non-conformity
to ii will certainly result in ma
tional disaster

YOUNG MEN ALSO EAT

Since Key West still has not been
called upon for its first selective service SOL
der perhaps we are making commotion
about what remains, at least for this city, a
hypothetical question.
Nevertheless, the tendency of en-
ployerS to deny work to men whom they
consider likely to be called into service,
ought to be checked.
The sales talk at the time of the selec-
tive service beginnings, if you will remem-
Der, stressed the idea that young men in the
army would get year of. fealthful trains
ing, then return to their old jobs.
. On the face of it, any attempt to
coerce employers into restoring their ex-
employees to work is impossible, since in
many cases the jobs will no longer be there
when they return. Even if the jobs were
there, the disruption which would be caused
by discharging men who had taken the
place of the selectees would be terrible.
The attitude of employers in turning
down men who may be drawn into the
service, while understandable, hardly
seems to constitute fair basis on which
to start the teamwork which this country
must develop to make its defense effort
success. If everyone, both in the army and
likely to get in it, is going to be pushed into
the nations economic dog house, the young
men in the army, and likely to get in it, may
be forgiven for wondering whatthey are
training tosdefend.A Y Y ii
Obviously, the employer feels that it is
a waste of time to train man who may be
called into the army at any time. He doesn't
want to disrupt his business by frequent
changes.
The man taking that attitude might
consider, however, that it is possible the
selectee doesn't want to be disrupted,
either. 1t is wholly possible that many OF
the selectees are laboring under the impress
sion that if their lives are to be shuffled
about for them business operators can
stand little disruption, too.
The young man who is likely to be
called into the army ought to have his
chance to make living until the call
comes.

APPRECIATE HELP

Editor, The Citizen:
The American Trailer Ambu-
lance Committee, would be very
grateful if you would, through
the columns of your valuable
paper allow us to express our
gratitude to all generous donors
who in response to our letter of
August the 8, 1910, so generously
responded and have enabled us to
give one hundred trailer ambu-
lances to many villages and or
CARNATIONS.
Our thanks are also due to the
American press, for giving us this
publicity, and to many editors for
their invaluable corporations. T.
R. Hutton, editor of the Bing-
hampton Press, New York State,
by the appeal made in his journal,
secured the valuable help of an
energetic committee under the
Craftsmanship of George L. Hin
man, and raised donations
amounting to twenty-nine trailer
ambulances, and this has been a
remarkable donation
Other editors as far apart as
Juneau, Alaska; Clean, New
Pork; Laredo, Texas; and Wilson,
North Carolina, with many
others, have given trailer ambu-
lances. The kindness of an editor
in Hawaii secured the aid of the
William Allen White Committee
Hawaiian Chapter who have do
mated thirteen trailer ambulances,
and nanv given by private citi-
zens have made this splendid re-
suit.
! feel sure that many Amer
leans will be glad to know of the
many letters of deep appreciation
which our committee has re-
ceived, expressed to our commit
tee by the recipients.
The mayor of Blyth, North
cumberland, writes:
"Ambulances are very much
needed, and the provision of the
trailer ambulance by the Misses
Gilmore will be greatly appre-
ciated by the inhabitants, and /
hope you will be able to convey to
them our warmest thanks for
their generosity. Such valuable
assistance by our friends in Ann
erica is very encouraging, and it
will greatly strengthen our de-
termination to pursue the war to
a successful issue for the benefit
of all free peoples and demo-
cracies."
Our committee wishes all Am
erican citizens to know how proud
we Americans are over here of
the help so generously given to
aid the suffering in this country.
Yours very truly,
AMY LEA PEARL,
Chairman.

to stick out his head in favor of peace will
be smeared. This Administration is noted

gross injustice since that individual OPP

which is reasonable. As yet we are not at
