Proposes War Against Germany
To "Shake" Hitler Off "Tightrope."
To the Editnr of The Star.

To be material minded in peacetime
is deplorable; to be material-minded in
wartime is fatal. Is America so ma
terial-minded, so pre-occupied with the
material aid she is sending the Allies,
that she is blind to that incomparably
greater aid of the moral sort which she
instantaneously could give by a world
resounding declaration of war against
the government that sank the Robin
Moor and promises to sink as many
other ships as her torpedoes can strike?
Have we forgotten how many nations
followed us in declaring war against
Germany in 1917? And how soon there
after German morale cracked and crum-
bled, so that only minor fraction OF
our draftees saw even short service at
the front? Is it not possible for us to
understand that it was our staggering
shock to German morale and the cor
responding great strengthening of Allied
morale that brought victory to freedom
then and could do the same today?
Hitler is walking a veritable tight
rope. America easily could give that
rope such shake as would send Hitler
tumbling into oblivion.
Either America will do this or she will
have long, long war on her hands.

A Reminder

AS another holiday marking the
signing of the Declaration of indie
pendence rolls around, Washington
mans join whole with
other proud citizens of the Republic
in celebrating the historic act by
which this Nation cast off the yoke
of Old World tyranny and dedicated
itself to the cause of liberty and
justice for all.
But while WaShingtonians patri-
otically glory in the democratic
freedoms which stand out in such
striking contrast to the terroristic
bondage which prevails in so much
of the world today, their hearts,
withal, are Sorely troubled Their
fellow citizens throughout the forty
eight States should not forget that
Washingtonians are in the anoma-
lous position of being American
citizens who are not permitted to
share in some of the most precious
liberties which the founders of the
Nation sought to guarantee to every
citizen of the United States. Resi-
dents of the District of Columbia
cannot but feel indignant that while
all other citizens enjoy the rights
which are the assured heritage of
Americans WaShingtonians are de-
prived of a voice in the Government
which taxes them, which makes laws
for them and which sends their sons
to war.
Something can and must be done
to correct this grave, un-American
injustice. What can and must be
done about it is outlined in the article
"A Fourth of July Reminder" on
Page AS of today's Star. Every
member of Congress, every believer
in the principles of democracy laid
down 165 years ago at Philadelphia,
should read this reminder" that,
despite the Declaration of Independ-
ence, taxation without representa-
ton still survives in the Capital of
the Nation.
