WHY not think of peace at
w Easter times

In the World War the same pro-
partition prevailed on the English
side.
In this war those proportions do
not exist,
In fact, the proportions are more
nearly three to one against Eng
land unless the United States ac--
lively intervenes.
And then the proportions would
be about equal.
Equal proportions OF military
strength and man power mean an
unfortunately protracted period of
war-of mutual destruction and
worldwide Decentralization.
! THERE have been protracted
i periods OF war In Europe be-
fore.
The Napoleonic wars lasted over
20 years.
Then there was the 30 years
war. and the so-called 100 years
war.
English statesmen now declare
that the present war il likely to
last 10 years.
We. the people Of America, are
cordially invited in to fight the
war for Europe.
To what termination
For what b>neiicent purpose
To save democracy.
Bosh.
There will not be shred of de-
mocracy left anyw here in the
world at the end of IO-year war.
There is mighty little left now
in this country. and less in Eng
land.

English Cave Houses
DEFY kazi Bombers

= Houses built in dry, warm caves
IL miles southwest of Birmingham,
England, are bombproof, and the
dwellers defy Nazi raiders. The
caves were shelters for all sorts of
queer people during the Middle
Ages. They are in long ridge of
sandstone known as Kniver Edge.
In the last century builder
turned them into houses. The fronts
were built of rough stone and the
parts of the roofs projecting from
the front of the caves were covered

with heavy stone slabs. The houses
were approved by building inspec-
tors, and so came into existence the
village of Enville. The back parts
OF these houses are as perfectly
