British Aid To Thailand Will Hinge On US. Willingness To Cooperate
 With Strong Measures Against Japs

LONDON, Aug. ' fP) Britain expects little Thailand to resist any Japanese invasion and Brit iSh aid in such an event will hinge on the willingness of the United States to cooperate with strong measures, authoritative sources declared. The implication is that the United States must be wi ling 10 cooperate in more than an economic blockade of Japan, if Britain is to give strong back ing to Thailand. That British inn per;al forces are making ready fer any Japanese thrust on Thai land, which might be either or both a threat to Singapore or the Burma Road, the lifeline of the Chungking Chinese govern ment, was indicated by Reuters agency dispatch from Singapore quoting the Singapore office of the Ministry of Information which said, in British Burma and south China, "all preparations are ready to smash any Japanese attempt to cut the Burma Road or move further westward
 The British are looking toward policy of British and Ameri- can cooperation extending be- yond diplomatic and economic measures, applicable not only to possible situation in Thailand, but to the entire Far East. Thai land is in a position of danger the informant said.
 An authoritative world mili- tary review added that the na- tion's army numbers but 50,OO0 men and it's equipment is limit ed but the air force makes up in quality what it lacks in size" This source refused flatly to say that Britain will help Thailand, pinning his answer to: that is a question of the United States at titude.

Earlier, an un- official Nazi report said Kiev it. self was surrounded, but the com mand report indicated that the main German thrust was direct ed at cutting off the Black Sea port of Odessa, some 40 miles be low Uman.

Secty. Morgenthau Advocates An-Out Tax Program
WASHINGTON. Aug 8 lPl

WASHINGTON, Aug. 8 (P) - Advocating an 'all-out tax pro- gram for defense" Secretary of the Treasury Morgenthau asked Congress to tax millions of ad- ditiona. persons of small incomes by cutting the personal tax eN- emptions, 10 Stiffen other taxes on married couples, corporation, and others. He told the Senate Finance committee on Revenue that House approval of the tax bill shou d increase the present g.. .206, 100000 to lat least three and half billion. He hinted strong y that he would like much more.
 Under questioning, Morgenthau estimated the necessary raise at at least two billion more than he expected to be provided by the pending bill. II the federal gov ernment can pay two-thirds of it's operating expenditures thlr fiscal year, g billions, with an estimated deficit of about F bil- lions, it will meet the two-thirds cost. At that rate, he said, the estimated revenues needed to be boosted by about 5 billion, 500 thousand dollars, including the amounts contained in the pend ing bill.

Church and Home
BY REV. M. MIKKELSEN

To avoid being confused Jesus
trained His disciples to have full
confidence in God at all times even
under perverse conditions. He told
them of certain complications that
might arise in which they would
find themselves involved because of
their relationship to Him. In order
to intercept possible offensive at
titude on their part when perplexity
would test their faith He spoke free
ly of such implications. Their lives
would be at stake, if they were to
follow Him and not to think of self,
of comfort, or of safety.
Interception is better than cure,
but very often this is thought of too
late, and therefore possible cure
must be relied upon. The training
they had received together with the
advance information on perverSe
matters greatly assisted them in do
ing most of their thinking on a
straight line, so that when Jesus
said: 81 send you out as sheep in the
midst of wolves, there is no con-
fusion and no hesitation in their
minds as to what is right and what
is wrong. He gave them work to do.
Today, if you have become con-
fused about the way things turn out,
the best cure is to become interested
in one or more of the most pressing
problems of mankind in the present
deplorable situation, and then give
all the time you possibly can to help
to solve them. If one problem is
solved there are hundred others to
attract your attention.
Some people like to sit down quietly
and just wait for God to do every
thing that needs to be done. They
even show dissatisfaction and criti-
CHE because the work is not done,
or because certain problems are not
solved. Evidently, they do not I'M
derstand that the responsibility for
solving these problems and doing
that work, which they expect God to
do, rests upon us.
Some time ago there was an article
in The Christian Century on the
refugee problem telling about group
of young people in Iowa who had
become deeply interested in the
problem; by joint effort they sue
ceeded in repairing rather neglected
old school building which was not
being used, converting it into home
and work place for refugees. The
possibility of the project had first
been discussed at youth conventions.
Fired with enthusiasm they came out
of these with a determination to ac-
complish. The interest and the aid
of the community were easily Sc
cured. Today it is working reali-
ty, and as such it illustrates better
than words how the responsibility of
fulfilling the promises of God to
humanity can be handled by groups
of Christian young people.
