Dutch Recall
Duke Of Ava
BY BENJAMIN DECAssEREs

BY BENJAMIN DECASSERES
LIVERY once in a while news
seepS through from Holland
Of wholesale Dutch sabotage
against the Nazis and the i'm
priSonment of dozens Of Dutch
citizens for alleged this and
that.
Those invinciblc Dutchmcn re-
member another brutal con-
queror on their soil. the Duke
Of AlVa one of the cruelest men
who ever lived.
He had conquered Holland for
Philip the Second in Spain and
at Utrecht on July Is. 1873 he
issued the following decree Tor
the Dutch 10 ponder on:
But II we disregard these Of
fers of mercy, receiving them
with closed ears aS hitherto,
then we warn you that there II
no rigor. nor cruelty, however
great, which you are not TO eX-
pect by laying waste, starvation
and the sword, I'm such manner
that nowhere shall remain
relic of that which at present
exists, and his ajesty will strip
bare and utterly depopulate the
land, and cause IL To be in
habited again by strangers"
Well Philip and Alva got
theirs finally and tho Dutch
retook Holland-as they viii
again.
Every country that Hitler and
his gang have conquered will
come hack into its own Nor
way, Poland. Finland Czecho-
Slovakia, France, Belgium and
the rest, for no man or gang of
men can permanently eXtinguiSh

Highways For Defense

ESSONS etched IN blood European battlefeds have
l. taught Americans that adequate system Of trans
portaton is vital 10 national defense.
Armies, these days roll wheels. 1t is vital that
highways be broad and direct for their speedy movement
1t equally vital that there be roads to-rne plants and
factories where materials and supplies for those armies
produced
Today in Detroit are assembled many Of the men
whose Job It is TO plan and build the nations highways
AT their meeting the Wentsseyenth annual convention
of the American Association Of State Highways Officials
they facing the problem OF defense roads Tor America
army wheels.
Upon their planning, and upon their wisdom IN large
part Will depend impregnahe defense setup.- And
upon their wisdom and will depend whether roads
built this year and for the purpose of national de-
Tense will be adaptable civilian veal when peace again
returns to the world.
Detroit welcomes these highway officials and joins
their hopes that the tax money poured out for highways
in the of national defense will be spent wisely and
well

Better Street Cleaning

THE recently naugurated plan of the DPW to give all
Detroit streets regular cleaning at decreased cost
to the deseFVpsthe cooperation eff every resident
The plan not only guarantees Detroit cleaner more
attractive city but minimum the cost OF keeping
the streets presentable in front of your homes
The previous man-and broom combination cost the
taxpayer 81 to sweep mile of thoroughare With
parked hinder their progress motorized sweepers
clean up 35 miles in Shour day at cost of only
So mile.
Citizens asked to heed the parking signs which
will be posted beforehand the streets TO be cleaned
that night Parking will be prohibited between l and
a. m. only on one side of the street at time.
Motorists failing heed the signs will be ticketed
This, however will not be the solution. The DPW wants
clean streets not additional fines in Traffic Court.

Unemployment Defense

ONE point which the European war and the defense
~ program have brought home to American workmen
is the need for preparing themselves for employment
With workers at premium, some men find them
selves still unempoyable. Some Of these men prob
ably didn't understand why they couldn't get work when
jobs were scaree.-7
With labor classed as a commodity, subject to the
laws of supply and demand all workmen technically are
statesmen who must have something definite to SELL
The rush of and women to Detroit technical
schools proof that they have absorbed this important
lesson.
