Our Only Choice

EVIDENCE shows Hitler will make every
II effort in an attempt to invade England
by Spring. Should England fall the question
of United States being invaded remains.
Not since Napoleon's time has the world
become involved in fearful turmoil of war
where complete domination will be the only
alternative for these mad dctators.
Self-preservation is great asset for the
United States to use under these conditions.
To provide every means Of defense with the
best equipment possible.
In stalling a possible invasion it will be
necessary for us to aid England until our
defenses are ready. Hitler's lust grows greater
and his efforts to conquer England will be
terrible, if not horrible.
Our only choice now lies in President
Roosevelt's humane ideas. Whether we criticize
his convictions on the defense situation, it
shouldn't matter as long as we keep on pro-
ducing the instruments of self-defense.
You American people who should be
proud to exist under American conditions
should extend our hand to the courageous
English people, whose destiny in this world
will be in what we do for them in the near
future.

I DON'T favor helping Britain. but rather
i America first, for she certainly needs it.
Foreigners and internationalists favor immedi-
ate war with Germany, because they won't
have to do the fighting. Americans will be
called upon to do the fighting the bleeding,
and the dying. Those who will survive will
be compelled to do the paying.
These senile men, Glass, Stimson and
Knox, who do the most harping for war don't
intend to do any fighting. Glass is SO and
says that he isn't lone bit scared" Why
should he be? He can't even carry a gun,
much less fight
Yes, these old men need have no fear,
because after the war, they won't be in bread
lines, they won't be trampng the streets look
ing for work. they won't be evicted from their
homes.
I favor law that would send all those
to war who want warNregardless of their age
or sex or one that will compel them to keep
their mouths shut!

build Own DefenSeS
LORETTA VAN KEUREN,
18061 Pennington drive.

MO, WE should not mix in Europe's wars.
~ The lessons learned from the last war
should settle that.
We must steer a different course from
our present one or be involved in a senseless
victorious.
It's time enough to get into this fight
when we are attacked. Meantime, we should
expend our energy on national defense and
not on bitter words of defiance to other
nations.
Help England, of course, but not to the
extent of Gripping our own vital and enlarged
defense needs.
Germany is not the only one we have to
watch. We have potential enemies all
sides, There is no doubt that the majority of
Americans are agreed that we should extend
aid limited to materials which they them
selves shall transport.
think that honest, clear thinking Ameri-
cans can easily penetrate the fog of hysteria
which has been whipped up in Washington.
Can any one see any reason for relinquishing
our form of representative government, our
ideals of equality and freedom?
Would you willingly give them up to
crafty the personal, scheming ambitions of
any one?
I'll venture to predict that if Bill 1776 in
its original draft goes through, America-as
we know twill become washout and. in
the end. communism will swoop down here
and pick the carcass clean.
