able thinking about Sneaky's
perfidy. 1t seems particularly
dastardly in view of the faithful
ness with which we deliver our
self up to him in December, and
we are trying 10 figure out his
motive.
1t could be that he suspected
we were trying to move out of
his range, but in that case he
might at least have asked us. A
more alarming thought is that
he has decided TO give us a
double dose this season. Almost
everything goes double nova
days.
WE WILL never forget the
w surprise of the attending
physician, Doctor Ball, when we
identified Sneaky TO him by
name. The doctor was unable
to get his thermometer to reg
lister any temperature. and we
said that was the way Sneaky
always operated.
We said Sneaky invariably
tried to keep his presence con-
cealed from all but his victim
until he had a good hold and
was sure he could score fall.
3"Sneaky:" the doctor in
quired. cautiously. who Is
Sneaky?"
"Sneaky, the fin germ" we
replied promptly. HE Is an old
friend of ours"
At this, the doctor, an affable
young man originally from Iowa,
quickly applied sleeping potion
and tiptoed out of the room.
We knew what he was thinking.
Our home doctors used 10 think
the same thing until they
learned that Sneaky is no myth
and started TO deal with him as
a definite personality instead OF
just an ordinary germ.
One Of our home doctors once
evolved rather a curious theory
about Sneaky He said in his
opinion the regularity OF
Sneaky's visits 10 us were based
on most humane consideration
for our readers. He said he
thought that Sneaky believed
that these readers were entitled
10 surcease from our sermons
for a greater or less period Of
time once year. and as we
never displayed any disposition
10 grant them this boon of our
own volition, Sneaky merely
took matters in his own hands.

Potential Killers

HETROTT'S latest traffic tragedy-the killing of
- s-year-old boy and njurng of two others by a
hit and run drivers another in the long list of motor
fatalities that should have occurred The driver of
the death should not have been permitted to drive
ear.
He has a very bad traffic record Only year ago,
his drivers license revoked for six months.
The question is: Why his drivers license
voked for only six moDths? Why wasn't revoked
permanently? Why it given back To him, that
he could go oat kill child and nearly Kill two others?
Detroit has had 81 persons killed far this
year than in the same period last year.
How many more persons will nave TO be killed be-

permanently revoke the licenses of these potential death
drivers? They must be kept from the streets,

WOMEN'S hats went live"
W a couple of years ago. and
men laughed. but look at mems
hats today-yes, look,
Green. gray. blue. brown-all
the same shape and all crushed
in like a last years duck nest.
Look at them on the gang as
they walk down the streets.
You'd think that law had been
passed that all men must wear
the same kind of lids.
Look in the windows of hat
tiers. The new ones look like
stuff collected for a remnant
Sale-the drabness and same
ness is painful-unul even a
derby is a relief.
The designers Of mems hats
haven't had a bright idea in 10
years. They made a couple of
patterns and went TO sleep on
them.
No wonder a street car mo-
torman or a traffic cop looks
like the Sheik of Araby with
caps cooked to-ere side.
The only innovation that has
been made in mems felt hats in
the last five years is a sparrow
feather stuck timidly into the
bands of some of them. and
what sparrow-feather it was!

S2000,000,000 since last January,
although the proportion held by
the banks has not increased
mcasurably.
Now, some of this money out
side the banks is no doubt held
by business, but not much.
MONEY men are offering many
AVA reasons. Heavier retail and
defense trade, expanded pay
rolls, higher prices and farm
income are the logical, obvious
ones, but, TO date, they can ex-
plain away only part of the
total. The rest is sticking TO
many peoples fingers.
Other reasons are suggested
for the sticking phase. Foreign
nations are suspected of hoard
ing some dollars.
But above all these reasons.
there is still the main one
fear Uncertainty exists over in

1t has promised to try ceiling

resolution that no one at that

actually failed TO fix ceiling
which would stop inflationary

that the dollars in your bond
will be worth as much next

from now as they were when
you bought the bond.
Where then is money TO GO?
A lot of people have put theirs
in farms or potato patches in
the country. But the fact that
most of the productive farms

make sense, but fear is never

We Are Held Responsible

 Luigi Villari featuring at Rome, has informed the wide world that the Axis powers going to make the United States pay for the grave responsi bity of having prolonged and propagated the war This is gratifying as the enemy's admission that aid to Britain is beginning to count visiby But it is a curious and malignant idea in the main.
 To argue that the United States propagated the war is indeed to wander far afield. To thrust upon the responsibility for paying the cost of the because have aided Britain in some measure is to indulge in cheap form of threat that will only arouse antagonism here in America
 The really notable significance of Villari's re- marks before the Italian Center of American Stu dies" lies in the plain statement that in the eyes of the Axis powers the United States is open and ayowed enemy, to be dealt with accordingly.
 This ought to be of some interest to those easy going Americans who have been saying we shall get on nicely, no matter who wins in Europe so long as tend to our own affairs The typical isolation ist fondly believes we are secure in America if we simply avoid giving affront to strong world powers
 The contrary is all too plainly true. Norway gave no affront. Neither did Holland Nor did Yugo- savia. But they have been overrun. Already the Axis powers have come to regard the United States as an enemy to be despoed when the chance comes. We in America are marked down for the very treat ment accorded to other democraces, once the wheel of destiny turns that far.
 We should be grateful to Signor Villari, despite his ugly remarks about For he has given us new warning-if any were needed-that it will be merely question of time, after Axis victory in Europe until the United States is made to feel the power and the hate of the dictatorshps

Many fabulous tales are related in the cloakrooms when members of Congress reminisce, but Represen- tative Warren Magnuson, brainy young Washihgtonian. can top them au. He claims he is the only man in the world who ever went to the Arctic Circle in a Palm Beach suit.
 The strange odyssey occurred in July, 1885, when plans for the super highway that is to be built between the U. s. and Alaska were in the embryo stage. Magnuson was chair man of the commission picked by the State Department to meet with Can adian engineers to determine the best route through British Columbia.
 One day Magnuson got an urgent wire from the Canadians asking if he could come immediately for a conference at Prince George, B. O.. Not waiting to change Palm Beach suit he was wearing, Magnuson grab bed the first plane, planning to stop off at his home in Seattle and pick up some heavier clothes.
 However, the plane reached Se- attle several hours late and, still in summer togs, he had to grab another plane immediately for Prince George Tn order to arrive on time There, to his great amazement. Magnuson learned that an air trip over the frigid Yukon territory, with stops as far ndlth ak Old Crow on the

HOROSCOPE "The stars incline
 bat do rot compel"
SATURDAY, MAY 31

Benefic aspects are positive to- day, but adverse planetary influ- ences are active. There is a warn ing portent that seems to concern our Navy or losses of important mercantile cargoes. sra@
 Heart and Home Venus frowns today and women will be most for tunate if they pursue homes tasks or keep in beaten paths of wage earning. It is a forbidding sway for those who apply for employ ment. The stars imperatiyely favor men who will have great rasponsi- bilities and will be too busy to bother with feminine ambitions of any sort. College girls will benefit through intense study of technical vacations in which there will be wide demand for their services.
 Business Affairs: Although this is not a favorable configuration for shipping the summer is greatly to expand commerce. Trade relations will improve in quarters hitherto unfrequented by our mercantile vessels. Oil production will be in creased greatly and new wells will be opened. The seers warn against speculation. Bankers and financial leaders are well directed today. Sweeping changes in economic and money systems are prognosticated.
 National Issues: Protection of American youth in military train ing camps from bad influences will be stressed by the Government and discussed by parents in all parts of the country. The stars are fead as presaging scientific health safe guarding more wise and more thor ough than any previously even wis., toned by Government which asks young men to sacrifice private in terests to public service. Mental and moral development are indicated, Dy the stars for men in all branches Of the QelenSe SerVice. fE
 International Affairs: Possible di- vergence of views may cause mis- understanding between Portugal and Britain in the summer. Mars is in a place warning of espionage in all the ports which United States ships touch. Our Navy is to focus the most determined efforts of the Axis powers to obtain valuable papers and to succeed in sabotage. Desperate fears will actuate Hitler to devise barbaric ways of destroy ing American ships and killing all on board. The stars seem to pres age the abandonment of all civil ized codes in the conflict as it con- tinues through the summer.
 Persons whose birthdate it IS have the augury of year of ad- vancement and substantial gain. Romance will be prevalent among young and those who are middle aged.
 Children born on this day prob ably will be emotional and sensi- tive. They will enjoy luxurious liv- ing, for they will be artistic and discriminating. a|2

MEMORIAL DAY-1941

Memorial Day created to honor soldiers. Its central purpose had the sanction and blessing of generations long gone to their reward.
 Horace, the Roman poet said if memory serves, "Dulce ct decorum est, pro patra mori'-"Sweet and fitting it is to die for ones country" He said it about 20O0 years ago The idea had been uttered before and ofttimes has repeated in the years between.
 But it was said about pacifists or fifth columnsts. No memorials have been erected to them and none will be.
 The Savior of mankind told us, Think not I come to send peace on earth come not to send peace, but sword" He has been called and rightly so, the Prince of Peace, but the only peace he envisoned just peace, peace after the righteous cause had prevailed, and not before. His life and His glorious death contained no hint of compromise with evil.
 Memorial Day. 1s41, finds us a nation strangely disturbed
 We are uneasy because we had so fervently prayed and so ardently believed that the race had come into a day, where justice and reason should prevail
 But, behold, there came mad dog Hitler And another, Stalin. And an international charatan Mussolini
 And shall the democraces of the world say to them:
 10, this is the year 1941, in the Christian era and really this kind of aggression is not la modes
 God forbid!
 You cannot tame a mad dog or a rattlesnake with pous homilies, the paeifists advocate You have to take mans part and weld the sword.
 We could weep thousand years of tears over the tragedy which has engulfed the world on this Memorial Day of l941

 The Naz propaganda agency puts out the above statement to prove that Rudolf Hess had not de- serted and gone over to the enemy. The implication is that he remained loyal to the party and to his chief otherwise he would have landed his plane and revealed great military secret-the nature of the Messerchmitt's construction.
 That is really something. Since the began planes of the type the No. Nazi flew to Scotland have been brought down in England by the scores and hundreds.
