Race, Religion Last
 Cause Of Dissension
Precepts of Worlds Greatest Teachers Point Way to q. Harmony, Declares Rev. Mir. Gaines in Sermon

he was not like other men missed the point sadly. He might have thanked God for his religionthe best the world had.
 If we are, more favored in reli- gion, or believe we are, than others, 1t only means that the obligation to share our advantages with the less fortunate, who wil receive them, Is all the greater. It ought not to mean that we wish to silub them If we have the best religion, we have the most ample knowledge of truth. and we can afford always to let truth speak for itself. And we ought to remember that people are never converted to truth by persecu- ton. They are only driven to cling more tenaciously to what they al- ready believe. Neither are they con- verted by argument. We show the superiority of our religion and get g friendly hearing for 1t, when we live It's teachings. Religion needs to be demonstrated.
 Religious Advantage
 Furthermore, if 1t is the case that we have by birth or choice a specal religious advantage, we shall be wise to remember that no religion is so perfect in its human expressions that 1t adherents cannot learn much from others. It would be im- possible to exaggerate the indebted ness of Christianity to Judaism, or of Judaism to Christianity.
 Race and religion ought to be, on any logical ground, the last causes of strife. But I suppose this is like say ing that if we were all reasonable most of our troubles would disap- pear.
 If we would followed the precepts of our greatest teachers, whatever our race or religion, the world soon would be such a place as we may be- lieve God wants 1t to be. We should find that they are one in their un- derstanding of the essentials of faith mad morality. Jesus Christ is recognized by Jews as one of the prophets, and Christians understand that ne Voiced the teachingS or the prophets.
 Two Commandments
 Judaism and Christianity-Catho- lie and Protestant--are agreed that the duty of man is summed up In two commandments ~ Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, mind and strength; and thy ileighbor as myself" They teach alike, whether through Israel the Suffering Servant of the Lord, or thruogh the passion of Jesus Christ, God comes to mankind with re- demptive power. In this faith. we are all children of God and broth- CTS. We must live as such. Whatever else fails, love, as taught by al re- ligions. never faileth. We must not let 1t fali.

 Heading for the Garnet Mine area the other day, we saw 6 feed truck carrying 300 of grain and a bottle of whiskey. The grain was on the book; the red-eye was cash on the barrel head.
 The Connecticut WPA Writers Project publicixes the release of book on vacation and recreatiOnal opportunities In the Nutmeg State. That book was written as Your Vacation In Connecticut" about two years ago.
 If the Housatonic wasn't so completely damned, we might have some hope of @ herring run In the river this year. News from other states predict heavy run toward the last of March. We could stand Q few herring, a shad or two, and plenty of eels the way meat prices are sneaking upward Think of the fun that game war den would have north of the Sandy Hook Bridge If the Housa- tonic was bankful of herring. He'd probably insist on tallying every fish captured, measuring most of them, and reading every anglers license to boot.
 The Blue Flying Eagle bus scoots through South Britain now with all sails set. Local housewives board the vehicles and take in all the sales in Waterbury and points north. We'll bet that if the town fathers had ever figured we'd have bus service here, the Pierce Hol- low road would have remained a cart path. Lots of trade leaves town on those fast-moving, conn fortable chariOts.
 South Britain's Mems Club are planning to hold weekly dances at the defective hospital to help bal- ance the budget. A guard will be put on the coat racks because or the recent loss of clothing at one of the dances.
 Business has improved so fast for the power company that new poles are being installed on Main street to carry the increased load of juice. Wonder who will get the old ones for firewood?
 News comes through from Camp Edwards that the Yankee Divi- sion, made up of Mass achusetts National Guardsmen, has run afoul of the regulars at that sta- ton. The YD grabbed a radio Quiz program, horned-in tpo hea- w on other camp facilities. and a small riot developed. News of the unrest has not been published but the bolos are out and there's an especially tight patrol in camp. One story has 1t that the troops of the Regular Army stationed there are mostly from Kentucky. that the YD revived the old ques- ton of whether or not men from Dixie made good soldiers and that they found out quickly.

KEEP COOL EVEN
If ATTACK COMES
Tulare TinlpS)

Danger of enemy bombs falling on
continental American shores seems i'm
mlnent as these lines are written. For
the first time since the War Of 1912 the
Atlantic coast is in danger Of attack by
a foreign power. For the first time in
all its history the entire Pacific coast is
threatened with heavy assault
1t Is a new sensation to Americans,
most Of whom have been firm believers
in the theory that they were amply pro-
teeted from assault or invasion by eXpanS-
i've oceans on either coast Recent events.
however. have definitely diSproven this
theory. We must now face the fact that
due TO the airplane carrier and airplane
we are subject to possible attack-even
many miles inland.
We do not cite these facts to frighten
people, But we do think every one of us
should face the true situation. and by
knowing the facts be prepared for the
worst should it come. Then and only
then will We be able to meet any emer-
gency with calm, determination and COM
plete absence Of hysteria.
1t should be emphasized that such at
tacks are only poSsible-not probable.
The chances are that Japan failed to
seriously impair either American sea
power or air power in its treacharous sur
prise attack and that despite a few
"token' visits by bombers to our COAT,
the Japanese can do no persistent or con-
siderable damage, but will be driven back
to their own shores, eventually being
repaid many times over for their murder
Gus assault.
America is aroused as never before.
Let's keep cool heads, whatever happens,
even if called upon to prove that we can
take it, as we'll as give it.

THE RED CROSS ITS
PLACE IN THE WAR EFFORT

Imperial Valley residents in the Holt
Ville-lmperial-El Centre area are being
asked to give $4,000 to help the Red Cross
IN Its War relief campaign. The nation
as a whole is asked to give S50000000
1t is as vital, this campaign. as any
fund congress may vote to prosecute the
American war effort 1t is as much a
part of the war effort.
Perhaps You have wondered what you,
as an individual, can do to help your coun-
try. The anSWer-Onp of the ansWerS-iS
before You. Give to the Red Cross.
This $4,000 that is to be raised in the
central district Of Imperial Nalley-What
is it for? What good Will it do?
For one thing. it may save the life of
a soldier on the battlefield. For another,
it may save the lives of many civilians
in the immediate areas of conflict. Ii
may provide food for those whose food
has been destroyed by bombs. it may pro-
vide dressings Tor the wounds Of critical
ly injured soldiers or sailors. 1t may
cheer up the fighting men who are far
from home, and whose lot needs all
the cheer Il can be given.
Or ii may be used, tomorrow or the next
day, to save your own life. Remember.
Is per cent OF the money collected re-
mains in the local community. with the
provision that it can be used ONLY in
war emergency work. Do You believe
it will not be needed here? \ few weeks
ago there were HaWaians who believed
it would not be needed in Hawaii.
The Red Cross-the Cross of Mercy
needs your dimes and your dollars today
1t needs your patriotism, and your big
hearted consideration for the suffering
of others. 1t needs these things as it has
never needed them before. and may never
need them again. We have been asked
to give $4,000 We should give three
times $4,000. 1t is the very least we can
do to ease the suffering of aggression's
victims.
Give to the Red Cross, as much as YOU
can. Make that giving part Of your own
war effort.
Let's top the quota.

CENSORSHIP

President Roosevelt announced Tues
day that partly voluntary, partly COM
pulsory censorship will be placed on in
formation which might be helpful to the
enemy.
Very good Any editor who would
knowingly publish such information,
any broadcaster who would announce it,
should be punished with legal means
and public scorn.
But let us be careful.
Censorship over information Of mill
tary value 10 the enemy Is something
nobody can object TO- 1t is the natural
DEVELOPMENT Of the emergency which
faces US. IL as the President says, CEN
sorship will be limited to information Of
military Significance, there can be no
possible objection.
But there is danger in any censorship
the danger that those in power will
use it in an effort to prevent criticism Of
themselves. or publication OF news un-
favorable to them, but which has 40 par
ticular military significance
America must be forever on guard
against such dangers as this. not with
the belief that they will come to pass,
but with the determination that no com
bination Of circumstances shall bring
them about.
We. the people, shall cooperate fully
and completely in the War effort, but We
must remain on guard against internal
AS well as external dangers.

A TRUCE TO STRIKES
(Wall Street JOurnaD


Since Sundays events in the Pacific
the United States has no need to rush
labor legislation through Congress. In
dustrial employees know as we'll as any
other Americans what war means. They
are not behind the others in fidelity to
their country. They know they cannot
fail their brothers who are offering their
lives on the sea and in the air.
In testimony to their loyalty, several
strikes in defense industries scheduled
for yesterday were promptly called off.
The fact that United States territory
has been wantOnly and treacherously at
tackled has already worked a great
change in the labor situation Labor
union executives generally will not fail
to realize this change and govern them
selves accordingly. If few should miss
the significance of what has already
happened, their own constituents will
correct their error.
Therefore the labor regulation bill
passed by the House last week should
be laid aside to allow organized labor
every opportunity TO make its voluntary
contribution to the war effort. We have
no doubt that that contribution will be
Il great one it will be the greater and
the finer if wage workers are trusted
to make it of their own free will, without
being harassed by a sense Of inVldlOu5
legal compulslOn
Later on, perhaps a voluntary agree
ment of the two national labor organiZa-
tions and representative employer bodies
on a few main principles to govern labor
relations for the duration of the war
will come about. If entered into fairly
and sincerely by members Of all Of these
groups il would promise fan better results
than any legislation congress could de
wise
