For Quiet Determination
Cincinnati Enauirerl

Cincinnati Enquirer
 It is natural, perhaps, and to some degree un- avoidable that the early hours of Americas partici patton in this strangest and most terrible of all should be marked by a certain amount of hysteria and false alarm.
 From this moment forward, however this nation must steel itself to grim realities and must, if we are to make full use of strength, avoid wherever possible the confusion, the fear, the lost motion, and the working at cross purposes which breed from false alarming of the populace
 What foundation if any, there was for the fears of enemy air-raid attacks upon the West Coast or upon the East Coast those first few days it would be impossible to say definitely Both the Army and the Navy have an important obligation in scouting and warding off such attacks It is in ings to the civil populace where there is very good tangible evidence upon which to base fear of such attacks. But by the token, it is their duty not to contribute to any hysteria unnecessarily
 Until the nation is little acclimated to the grim business of war practice air raids-f in deed they are only practices-shoud be announced such. There is a penalty for the confusion and which air-rad alarms create in large city. The people must learn to- and be able to- trust the reliability and efficacy of their afraid systems.
 If are to win this war and We must need the braggadocio that we might hear in his voice. We need his energy at work and not altogether spent at waving the flag We need to tap deep est wells of patriotism not merely the shallow brooklets.

circumstances was a complete bust as an attraction for drawing a crowd the day Hoover testified be- fore the committee. Not even thS full committee was present The big marble walled committee chamber was practically empty.
 But little way down the corridor another committee was performing to a packed house The specia committee investigat ting defense contracts had a witness before it who cast ex-President Hoover completely in the shade as ; crowd drawer.
 The stellar attraction was Ton Corcoran, ex-braintruster. who took the witness stand to hotly deny charges that he was defense con- tract broker"
 The big throng that turned out to see the stocky wavy-haired, trig- -witted New Dealer perform was not disappointed. The Cork" put on snappy show. He had a ready answer for all questions and blandly admitted that he rated himself ano his legal services highly.
 The thrill-hungry audience loved it and had grand time. The show was better than any matinee run ming in the Capital and didn't cost a cent.
 NOTE: During Hoover's testi- mony before the Banking Con- mittee, two visitors stuck their heads in the door and in a loud voice said, "Oh, pardon, we're look ing for the Corcoran hearing"

BLOOMS "sUN DANCE"

Representative Sol Bloom of New York, chairman of the House For eign Affairs Committee, received postcard the other day which al- most caused him to fall out of his special health chair.
 The card was 40 years old. At the top was a business label reading Sol Bloom, Music Publisher, Dear born Street, Chicago, Illinois,
 Forwarded to Bloom by New York music house, which had re- ceived it from customer in Chi cago, the card stated.
 MT. Bloom used to be in business here at the above Dearborn St. ad- dress about 40 years ago. This is g card his firm used at the time Dc you know where he can be reached now? He published a song back around 1900 called, The Sun Dance. I'd like very much to get copy of it if he's still in the music busi- ness"
 Bloom, though now in the Con- gressional business, happened tc have a copy Of the old song al home. He sent it to the inquirer with a wistful letter about "old times"

THE PEACE OF CHRISTMAS
Peace on earth-.'

Peace earth---
 Is that joyous declaration of the Yuletide season going to have less meaning for this year than in other Chrstmases? Is it going to ring in our ears as a mockery? Is it going to be a reason for agnos- ticsm? Are we to sheer at it's false ring and turn against Christianity as an empty faith which failed to fulfill it's promises?
 Even last year. there was reason for we in Juneau and throughout the United States to smugly hug the prophecy of peace to our bosoms hide our heads ostrich-like in the fact that nation still enjoying peace. and glimpse the blood which dripped from other sections of the globe thing of but remote concern to ourselves
 This Christmas, such pretenses fail Our ships, our planes, our engaged in the awful pur suits of warfare. The first of what may be a long list of young American have lost their lives in the first two weeks of hosties.
 And yet with grief great personal sacrifices. even death facing them, believe American people will throng to churches to the word of Christ this year as before.
 Is then this Christian faith so blind that it will never recognize realities? Are Christians following a will-o-the-wisp promise of peace to which will never catch up?
 The ringing NO" which must certainly answer these questions is written in ndeble ink wherever we may turn in this world in which live today.
 Go down to the waterfront and watch the steamers arrive and discharge their cargoes Wander up Franklin Street and muse on the scurrying auto mobiles. Go home and turn on your radio and hear the voices Of men speaking to you at that very moment from throughout the world. Then recall the world as 1t when that first Christmas star shown the Bethlehem manager. Compare the progress made by man during the 1000 years before the birth of Christ with the progress have made in a Christian world in less than 2,000 years since then.
 We hear cynical voice shouting that these de- velopments the normal result of the ever in- creasing intelligence of mankind, product of evolu- ton and education, not religion In answer we have only to point to the fact that the huge majority sf these modern miracles have taken place first in

the Christian world, then spread to accepted use in the lands where other faiths predominate
 Christ did not prophecy arpanes, steam ships, automobiles, skyscrapers, motion pictures radios and other conveniences. of modern life. He did give us the faith and the will to accomplish these things in His name by introducing to a religion of tolerance, love and ambition.
 Christ did promise us peace on earth" which we realize never before will be the greatest miracle of all when have learned to attain it.; when deserving of this divine gift. That the blessing of peace earth will eventually to us is the greatest promise of Christiantya golden goal, toward which must rededcate our efforts each Christmas.

ment agencies.
 Equally sensational is the man Roosevelt is considering to handle the job for him He is Supreme Court Justice James Byrnes, who has been on the bench only few months.
 When he was in the Senate, Byrnes was the outstanding Con- gresSional authority on government reorganization. He had studied the subject for years and was chairman of a special committee that drafted the reorganization bill that Con gress enacted some years ago. Byrnes' parliamentary astuteness also was largely responsible for the passage of the measure.
 Byrnes will have to take a leave of absence from the court if he tackles the special job. The Presi- dent believes that with Byrnes' knowledge and experience, he can complete report in few months.
 The Presidents plans include re- Vamping of the hodge-podge of de- fense agencies, particularly those engaged in procurement. Inner cir Gle advisers have long urged a con- solidation of the numerous procure ment agencies into single, central ized body under one head
 Army and Navy brasshats, jealous of their bureaucratic powers, have long vigorously oppose such streamlining. It remains to be seen whether even under war con- ditions the bureaucrats can block a long overdue modernization of gov ernment purchasing machinery.
 NOTE: If Byrnes undertakes the reorganization mission, he will be the second Supreme Court Justice drafted by the President for war work. Justice Owen Roberts took leave from the bench to head the special board investigating the Pearl Harbor attack.

HOROSCOPE E "The stors incline

THURSDAY, DECEMBER 25

IHORSDA4, DECEMBER 70 Many aspects are active today adverse influences appearing to dominate in the configuration. The stars seem to presage less jollity than in previous years.
 HEART AND HOME: Wide spread celebration of Christmas will be distinguished by a ming ling of grave and gay responses to the sentiments that mark the holi- day. There is a sign that seems to presage homesickness and rest lessness, apprehension and anxiety which intrude upon festivities. Por- tents of the coming year, which is to bring world events more stu pendous than any in history, may be felt by sensitive persons.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS: On this great holiday theatres and other places of amusement will profit in an unusual degree. Money for re- creations of every sort will be spent recklessly Hotels and restaurants will benefit It is an suspicious date for snow sports and for ice skating The stars favor men in commercial enterprises more than financiers who are under aspects tbot eoar, +o rracauo l,ao,tu d,oi,, on wealth.
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS Intrigue and even treachery will hamper leaders ot the Free French Astrologers foretell for the future the escape of Occupied France from the power of Hitler, but delay in gaining liberty will be protracted Victory for the Allies must be at tained before there can be any security among peoples enslaved by the dictator. Revolutionary impuls- es will be strong and will cause the loss of q many true patriots.
 Persons whose birthdate it i, have the augury of a year of trials and perplexities. Nothing new should be started in business. Spec ulation should be avoided.
 Children born on this day prob- ably will have many obstacles ir the way of their success, which is likely to be attained by hard work and special talents.

 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIR According to the stars France fin- ally will regain her former high position among the nations of the world, but the new year will be most difficult for both the occu- pied and the unoccupied areas. General De Gaulle eventually will be given just valuation by the French people. The spring is to be a period of supreme war prob lens for the United States. Mars in conjunction with Uranus March l, 1942, will mark a date of great significance.

What Every One Can Do
(New York Timesl

tNeW HOrk IlmeS)
 In the face of the attack that has been made upon country, the greatest desire that comes to all of is to be able to do something to help. There is one thing that each of us do at once, and keep doing, to help strengthen the defenses of the United States We show the world where we stand by buying Defense Savings Bonds and Stamps The Government needs the money for this war and it needs especially to have much as pos sible of the effort financed in this sound way.
 Since the sale of Defense Bonds began last May subscriptions have totaed about $2000,000000. This is equal to less than 28600000O month. or less than onequarter of the average monthly rise in the national income In Britain small savers contribut- ed to the national effort s4000 100000 in little less than two years. Having regard to larger population, a comparable effort here would mean monthly subscriptions of over 52,000000. We should be able to equal and exceed this record. Up to now the Government has been reluctant to put on anything like intensive drive for defense sav- ings. It has, perhaps been too reluctant But that time is past We are at war The Government needs our savings it needs a regular contribution from our earnings. By this means can not only help finance the war but can help avert imitation and see that get a maximum of airplanes. guns and ships for our money. The ideal way to subscribe is in regular contributions, wherever possible deducted from wage and salary payments

 Benefic aspects rule today which should be stimulating and encour- aging The early hours of "the morning after" may be a bit de- pressing, but later kindly stars rule.
 HEART AND HOME: Women are fortunate under this configuration which preSages much love and gratitude from family and friends. It is an suspicious date for plan- ming new ventures in homemaking or business. Under this rule of the planets there should be good luck where girls choose men as asso- ciates in enterprises of value in promoting public welfare. Need for relief among unfortunates in our American cities will absorb atten- tion among social service workers.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS: This will be a quiet day in shops and a slow day in manufacturing centers. Speed will be slightly reduced in airplane production, but industry will benefit from cooperation among labor unions. Bookkeepers will produce statements of past business volume which will meas ure our recent prosperity. Research tasks will teach important lessons in economics as the nation faces a new year of potential problems in finance harder to solve than
