10 say on the subject
Winning first boys prize is this
sense-packed letter from ANGE
FERRARO of BROOKLYN. N. Y:
The wife and I have been TAX
ing separate vacations these last
six years, and see no reason why
all wives and husbands shouldn't
do likewise. We aren't old
fashioned, nor are we so-called
moderns. We are just . part of
this glorious age--this blessed, en-
lightened. liberal America.
"If the wife wants to take her
vacation In the country at q girl
friends home, why not? I'd only
be in the way, and a continuous
round of bridge and tennis would
only bore me, although she loves
1t. II makes me happy knowing
that she Is happy.
eff I want TO dash up TO the
north woods and do q couple Of
weeks of hunting or fishing, why
not? Hunting and fishing don't
appeal to the wife. She knows
she'd only cramp my style and
she's happy knowing that I'm en-
joying myself.
"We haven't given the matter
much thought--we didn't see any
necessity Of arguing the pros and
cons. The idea that there were
any dangers involved never even
occurred to us. The word 'sus-
picton' isn't In our dictionary and
we certainly don't look on our
vacations as an outlet or Yaca-

gradually impaired. What are We
going to do about It?
Can Turn Darkness Tide Back
From Our World.
BY the grace OF fortune this
most dangerous threat on all the
threatening horizon is an attack
which, II we will, we can success
fully meet. While we are strug-
Cling to build up an uncompleted
Army and an uncompleted air
force, we have at our hands q
naval instrument prepared and
ready for just such an emergency
in our defense. Right now, at
this crossroads Of history, it Is
within our power, if we choose
to use that instrument, to turn
the tide of darkness back from
the Atlantic world, and, while it
is thus held in check, to gain the
means which will preclude it for
ever from attaining its fell pur-
pose. For many years we have
been building and maintaining
this Navy. We call it our first
line of defense. 1t has been our
pride. In it are serving in the
cause of patriotism the flower Of
our young manhood. If today
that Navy should make secure the
seas for the delivery of our NUM-
tionS to Great Britain, it will rem
der as great a service to our own
country and to the preservation
of American freedom as it has
ever rendered in all its glorious
history. Supplementing the ef-
forts Of the British Navy, it can
render secure all of the oceans,
north and south, west and east,
which surround our continent.
In that way it can help to hold
in check the onward rush of the
tide of NaZi-iSm until the other
defense forces of all the democ-
racies are completed. This would
eventually and permanently con-
fine the malign forces of despot-
ism until the virus has run its
course and the tide of freedom
has begun to rise again.
On the other hand, if our Nays
assistance should be withheld un-
til the power of the British fleet
and nation is broken. its own
power of execution would at once
shrink to but an impotent frac-
ton Of what is could do at the
present moment. If we should
allow the present strategic mo-
ment to pass until the power
of the British Navy is gone, the
power of our Navy would become
merely secondary power instead
of the decisive and winning power
in the world contest. Is it con-
Ceivable that the American peo-
pie would allow this to happen?
After the carefully determined
course which we have pursued
until this moment: after the clear
statements and appeals which
have been made by our President
in respect to the danger which
confronts us; after the over
Whelming response to his appeals
which has been made by the Con-
gress; after we have taken our
place definitely behind the war
ring democracies and against the
aggreSsor nations in the defense
Of our freedom: after providing
for billions worth of munitions
to carry on that defense and
while We hold in our hands the
instrument ready and able to
make all these steps effective.
shall We now finch and permit
these munitions to be sunk in the
Atlantic Ocean? Our entire his.

tory shows no precedent to
make such a supposition credible.
Neither the Government nor peo-
pie of the United States have
ever given occasion to make any
one believe that such an act
OF irresponSibility and indeciSion
would be possible.
The unrestricted submarine
warfare which Germany Is car
rying on in the North Atlantic,
sinking ships without warning
and without the possibility Of
saving the lives of their crews, is
not a legal blockade under the
rules of marine warfare. 1t has
never been recognized as lawful
by the United States. Americas
SpokeSmen at international con-
ferences have again and again
condemned it as a form of pi-
racy. 1t was expressly the viola
ton of law and humanity in
volved in unrestricted submarine
warfare which in 1917 caused the
President and Congress to take up
arms in defense of the freedom OF
the seas. Today Germany by
these same illegal means is not
only seeking to frighten our COM
merce and our vessels from the
Atlantic, she has extended even

Our Government is acting with

Self-defense requires that linn

allow the steps which we have al
ready taken to become ineffec-
tive.
I do not minimize the danger
which confronts us. This is an
occasion for grave seriousness but
not for gloom or dependency. I
have studied the military potency
of the Axis powers and I do not

their men in battle. But I also
know we'll the initiative, the ready
aptitude and the courage of the

but it can spoil your happiness.

ordinary brushing may not prevent
1t. Neither will mouth washes. For
the odor comes from mucin-scum

has not been the way by which

toiled upward toward better

The men who suffered at Valley
Forge and won at Yorktown gave
more than money to the cause of
freedom.
Today small group Of evil
leaders have taught the young
men Of Germany that the free

must be destroyed. Today those
young men are ready to die for
that perverted conviction. Unless
we on our side are ready to sac
rifice and, If need be, die for the
conviction that the freedom of
America must be saved it will not
be saved. Only by a readiness for
the same sacrifice can that free
dom be preserved.
