DOLLARS CANNOT
BUY YESTERDAY"

A journalist, looking back upon
the year which has just closed, finds
an inf;nity of matters about which
essence titanic struggle between
two irreconcilable philosophers of
life, has steadily spread A whole
continent has felt the boot of new
conqueror with a plan for world
domination as vast as that of Ma
poleon. The worlds economy has
undergone violent change, and sta
bility has been replaced by chaos.
Here in our own country we have
recently gone through the most ira
dition-shattering election in our his
tory. The great issues of that cleo
ton were three-fold. First, whether
to elect president for third term:
second, how to keep America at
peace, while aiding England with
all steps short of war; third, how to
best build military and naval es-
history.
The second and third issues are
the most vital this country faces to-
day. They are not partisan issues.
II is obvious to anyone not blind
ed by false and baseless optimism
that the great plans of last summer
for building an impregnable de-
tense at once are not being realized.
It is easy to appropriate gigantic
sums Of money. It is easy to make
blueprints Of tanks and airplanes

keeping with the democratic tradi-
ton which they are designed to
protect and to save All the pro-
ductiveneSS of this nation is needed
now-of capital, of industry, of gov
eminent, of labor. The industrialiSt
who seeks outrageous profits: the
official who plays politics in time of
danger; the labor leader who TO-
ments unjustified strikes in vital
defense industries cannot be toll
Grated. We must never forget that
we can be destroyed from within
no less than from without
The American people cannot ac-
cept failure from any man-wheth-
er the man who fails holds a great
title or is lowly worker in a fac
tory. There is no excuse for failure.
No nation in the world is potentially
so productive as ours. None has a
1.-THE of our riches-riches of man.
power no less than riches of wealth
and of natural resources. In this
crisis, we shall really learn the cal
ibre Of our people and our public
men.
II is said of France that, in pre-
pairing to resist aggression, her gov
eminent, her industries and her
workers did too l.ttle-and did it
too late We too are doing too little.
But let us hope that we correct our
errors before it is too late. When
the head of our Navy observed that
dollars cannot buy yesterday" he
stated grim truth that every AM
erican must realize.
In this great national effort there
can be no failure The thought can
not be tolerated that democracy
here has fallen on such evil days
that it cannot compete with the die
tators. In England we have a mag
nificent example of what free men,
fighting to retain that freedom, can
accomplish against heartbreaking
odds.
1t was Winston Churchill who
said on taking office that he could
offer his people nothing save sac
rifice and sweat and toll. Here we
must absorb an ample measure of
that spirit. No one else can make
our sacrifices for us. The reSpon-
s:bility for the perpetuation of our
way of life falls squarely and ir-
revocably on the shoulders of US
all. No one can avoid it.
To say that we have now entered
on the most critical years modern
western civilization has ever known
is to simply state the obvious. We
do not know how much time we
will have to make ourselves secure
to guarantee peace in the only way
possible in this disrupted modern
world, which is by making our
selves so strong that no aggressor or
possible combination of aggressors
will dare to try our strength. We
do know that time, most precious
of all elements, must no longer be
lavishly wasted.
To stay at peace II to become
strong. Those are our national OBJ
jectives. We have the great indus
tries-we have the men-we have
almost limitlesS resources. To at
tain those vital goals demands the
full and friendly cooperation of gov
eminent, of labor, of industry, of
agriculture, of all. We must not be
tried and found wanting.

Tournaments on this basketball
setup have gotten to be big affairs
It requires substantial amounts OF
seating room. 1t requires real
management. It comes Just
after a time when season SEIZED
ules have played out, and then no
matter the rank Of the team dur
ing the season, the boys with tour
nament hearts and plenty of foot
and headwork somehow land up
there on top. It's a real event
and we're glad to welcome it back
to Sank Centre.
You know It was about 1880
that Sank Centre lost even the
bid for the district affair after
1t had been here q number Of
years. For the next year Alex
andria erected q new gymnas-
ium, one that would seat con-
siderably more than any other
unit In the district. The
tournament passed to her with
out any bids to the contrary.
Then a few years ago Glen
wood jumped the gun, threw
together a vast auditorium
gymnasium combination that
would seat up to nearly 1000.
:. And they got the exclusive
rights. It Is now on the point
of progress where Sank Centre
and Glenwood share the tour
nament each year. There's no
official indication that this Is
so, but IL naturally follows that
the towns with the largest
seating capacity will be tourna-
ment seats. -.
It would seem that the present
setup in district % so far as plac-
ing of the tournaments is quite
satisfactory. Towns like Melrose
and others who have erected fine
places to play, but lack only the
seating volume required of dis
trict affair, have been awarded the
seats of the sub-district four way
scuffle that precedes the eight team
all-district race. . One thing this
gymnasium race has done. More
than anything else it has helped
standardize the ball game particu-
larly in relation to playing courts.
So-called ground rules, once the
hazard of every away from home
game, are now virtually out of the
picture. The smallest of the
schools today has court that
compares with the largest. :. And
in many instances only the seating
capacity and that based wisely on
the community in which the gym
is erected, is smaller than those
of the larger towns.

ond time since the erection of

of quite a show i'm the sports
world. The tournaments
coming throws up a challenge
to the local cage team right
