Wants Dictator
To Defeat Dictator.
To the Editor Of The

To the Editor Of The Star:
I am so thoroughly disguised with a
small percentage of my fellow Americans
I am writing this hoping that the ma
jority of our citizens will ignore them
and go ahead and do something. When
q building is on fire, the fire chief be-
comes a dictator and in every great
emergency we still require dictators. The
United States needs one today. Why are
We waiting? Does not every one realize
that Great Britain cannot win unless we
help? If Great Britain is defeated we
will have war whether we want it or not.
and then we will be fighting alone.
I will say one thing for the totalitarian
form Of government, and that is that it
is better in time of great emergency.
So let us beat them at their own game
and adopt the same kind of government
until after Hitler is given life imprison-
ment and the word Germany no longer
appears on any of the maps of the world.
This country has twice the resources
of all OF the totalitarian countries COM
bined. Are We going to let them defeat
all of our friends and fight them alone,
or will we go in now and help those who
are fighting for the same principles that
we have always held so dear and have
also fought for? If we cannot do it under
democracy, let's do it under a dictator.
But do not wait until next year, next
month or even until tomorrow. Do it
today. D. A. VOWEL.

the Galapagos and naval facilities in
the Cults of Dulce, Nicoga and Fon-
SEGA, on the Pacific coast of Central
America.
The whole problem Of obtaining
additional bases in both oceans for
better protection of this continent
demands the continued attention of
our naval and military experts, of ad-
miniStration leaders and of the forth

More Bases Needed

Even when construction OF tne
eight new Atlantic naval and air
bases is completed, there will be cer-
tain weak spots in our chain of outer
defenSes. Some of these ChinkS in
our armor were outlined to the
American Association for the Ad-
vancement of Science at its conven-
tion in Philadelphia yesterday by a
university professor and by naval
officer. Other deficiencies were indl-
Gated in North American News
paper Alliance article on Martinique,
strategic French island in the West
Indies. In the light Of President
RooSevelts warning of last Sunday
night that long-range bOmberS have
narrowed the oceans and that an
axis victory would mean that Amer
lea must live with a gun pointed at
her, the renewed discussions regard
ing the need for strengthening still
further our ring of fortified outpostS
Is timely indeed.
Last October Colonel Charles Lind
bergh, in a Nationwide broadcast,
scoffed at the possibility of an aerial
invasion of this hemisphere by way
of "the ice bound mountains of
Greenland" But Doctor william H.
HOBBS, veteran Arctic explorer, on
the faculty of the University of Mich
igan, is convinced that Greenland
possesses tremendous military poten-
tialities. He told his fellow scientists
that a German meteorological station
has occupied since 1880 the site of a
possible landing field on Jameson
Land. halfway up the east coast,
and he described an uninhabited ice
cap. far inland, the smooth eXpanSe
OF which would make an ideal base
for an enemy air fleet He mentioned
other likely sites for air or naval
bases. Greenland, well within the
American defense zone, is one OF the
northern stepping stones from Eu-
rope to America, the others being
Iceland, now defended by Canadian
troops, and Newfoundland, on which
American base facilities are being
constructed as an outgroWth Of the
destroyerS-for- bases deal with Eng
land.
Captain c. S. Bryan Of the Navy
called attention Of the scientists to
dangers which exist to the south Of
us-in the vital Panama Canal area.
From Antigua, where one of the new
Caribbean bases is being laid out, to
Saint Lucia, site of another proposed
base, there is a gap of two hundred
miles of ocean. Between these bases
lies the Vichy-controlled island of
Martinique. The United States man.
ifestly could never permit this island
to fall into enemy hands. In the
series of articles on Martinique, writ
ten for the North American News
paper Alliance by Stephen Trumbull,
and now appearing in The Star, the
Importance of this French possession
in the scheme of Caribbean defense
Is clearly shown. But it is on the
Pacific side of the Canal that Captain
Bryan sees special threat to our Sc
curity. He pictured the possibility
of successful naval-air assault on
the Canal by way of the Gala
pagos Islands or the western coast
of South America. The best de-
fense against such an attack, he
said, would be an American base on
