ArmOred Ships and Planes
Cincinnati Enquire

Cincinnati Enquirer
 AS more and more details of the fighting in the Mediterranean ganered by correspondents at the scene, it becomes clear that there has been very significant test of air power against power.
 It test in which air power had many in- tial advantages The British vessels attacked were a carrier heavy cruiser, and more destroyers not batteships with their very heavy deck and belt The attacking planes were Nazi dive bombers--the most formidable aircraft which might be used against armored surface ships The British ships further handicapped by the fact that they conveying merchant vessels.
 Despite all this, the Germans lost 12 bombers and the Italians small destroyer, while the Brit ish lost but ship-although two others suffered material damage, its extent undisclosed
 The experience of the aircraft carrier Ilustrious is especially significant A carrier is one of the most vulnerable of craft not designed for com- bat. The nustrious has 16 guns of 4.5-nch calber, designed to equally against attacking aircraft surface ships
 The nlustrious pounded with heavy bombs and aerial torpedoes at frequent intervals for seven hours At times it was fairly enveoped in the flames of exploding missiles Its only defense after the first hour, it's 16 small guns it's speed of more than 30 knots, and the and skill of it's of 600
 The fate of the heavy cruiser Southampton is not encouraging This vessel of 9400 tons, with eight antiaircraft guns, badly damaged by the of Stukas that it had to be lowed and finally aban- doned by it's Perhaps the fact that it had only half many antaircraft guns the Ilusrious explains the difference in their fortunes
 If a warship as vulnerable as carrier, however ride out such rain of explosives for hours it follows that we in America not on the wrong track in adherng to policy of building big, heavi- ly armored ships as the backbone Of our defense on the oceans.

CRISIS MARCH Is

Secretaries Stimson and Knox did not go into details when they told Congress they expected an inter. national crisis in 60 to 90 days, but actually their War Department ex- perts have gone so far as to fix the approximate date of March 15 for the crisis to break
 Their estimate is based not only upon the already known fact that British shipping and it's conveys soon must be reinforced. but also on secret negotiations now taking place to establish an Eastern Front, thus make Hitler fight two wars instead of one.
 This was one of the big reasons for the pilgrimage of Colonel Wild Bill'' Donovan to North Africa, also for visits. of officials from the Ameri- can Embassy in France to Algiers, Their reports are extremely signifi- cant--asserting that Marshal Wey- eand, commander of the French forces in Africa, has become vigor- ously pro-British
 Furthermore, he has stated quite bluntly to Amercian representatives that if he were sure of getting sui l. ficient tanks. airplanes and ammu- milton, he would undertake a cam paign against the Italians immedi- ately.

Charles K. Harris's popular old song had it.: Many the hearts that broken, if you could read them all Many the hopes that are fallen, after the ball"
 But MT Harris had not in mind the occasion of the Presidents Birthday Ball for the benefit of the local and national campaigns against nfantile par alysis.
 The enjoyment of the patrons of the Birthday Balls throughout the nation leaves in it's wake the financial means for the mending of broken hearts, and provides year-around sustenance of hope that a way be found to overcome one of the worlds most dreaded maadies one which strikes particularly at little children
 Through the unique method of the Birthday Ball, funds raised to defray the necessarily heavy ex penses of nfantile paralysis treatment and research Half of the money collected here will go to the na- tonal fund, and yet the total amount will be spent here in Juneau. This paradoxical statment is ex- plained by the fact that while half of the Birthday Ball money is sent to the National Institute, the half that remains in Juneau is matched by equal amount in Federal funds from the Crippled Chl dren's program. Thus, every dime raised in the local campaign will buy l5 cents worth of ammuni- ton against the disease.
 As yet science has been able to provide only a modcum of help in fighting nfantile paralysis The protection of healthy children, of the gravest obligations demands expensive vigilance Treat ment is unusually costly, with the present made quate weapons against the disease. It requires long and intricate equipment And there must be braces crutches, artificial resprators and other aid for those maimed by the disease Finally there must be an unceasng quest in the laboratory for the nfantle virus itself and for means of combating it.

A reception of thousand people in a single day at the White House means big business, socially speak ing. But or inauguration day, such a crowd poured through the doors Of that mansion that all recent re- cords were broken. The total was be- tween six and seven thousand.
 Result was that the Roosevelt chil- dren, who came to see Papa take the oath of office for the third time, got lost in the crowd and thought they were in the Grand Central Terminal in New York. In fact, the crowd was so great that even Mrs. Rooseyelts brother, Hall Roosevelt, was elbowed out to quar- ters in an adjacent hotel.

 The group then proposed Willkie although they had not asked him and hadn't the slightest notion what he would do if offered the post A count of noses showed that they had the votes to put over their spectacular plan, but at the last moment they were blocked by a Willkieite.
 Lewis Douglas, co-chairman of the Democrats for Willkie and fight ing advocate of "all-out' aid to Britain, took the floor and declared that as much as he admired Will kie, it would be a strategical mis- take to put him in Whites place Douglas contended it would inject the Committee into partisan poli- tics and he advised a less political choice.

Civil Liberties in 194l
(NeW York Times)

The Civil Liberties Union reporting on events in it's field during 1940 and looking ahead into 94l, is afraid that State Legislatures this year will vio- late the rights of labor unions and other minorities in the alleged interest of national defense"
 The warning is needed. Civil liberties are always safe long their exercise doesn't bother any They endangered when feelings run high in industrial conflicts in the activities of noisy and unpopular minorities and when war or earnest preparation for defense is going forward We ought to be more than ordinarily solicitous for them this year If we break them down destroy founda- tion of democracy, and with it of the reasons for this nations willingness to make sacrifices and if necessary, to fight.
 It should not be necessary to diminish the civil liberties of any group which respects the law. It may be necessary to restrain those groups which conspre against other peoples liberties against the Government through which liberties as- serted and protected The fact that minority group is sometimes unjusty treated does not entitle its members to immunity when they actually break the law threaten the public safety.
