YOU ARE IN THE ARMY NOW

Many young men and their par
ents thought that the recent draft law
was put into effect merely to train
young men. They were mistaken men
were drafted for military service a.
gainst the Axis Powers.
War is war. 1t requires suffer
ing and sacrifice and death. 1t may
require death on u soil or ten thous-
and miles from home.
Ii W. are fighting Hitlerism. we
should combat it everywhere; at home,
in the Dutch East Indies; in China;
in Africa; everywhere beneath the
shining sun, until Hitlerism is done to
death; no matter what the price, we
should pay it gladly.
We can join heartily in the thrill
ing challenge of Winston Churchill.
1--WE willie ONQUER OR DE-.
We know what it means, if Eng
land is beaten; we shall be next to feel
the steel legions of Hitler. We do not
care to live under such a master. That
is why we have fought through the
years against little dictators here in
our own land. We are as dead set a.
gainst big dictators. And we shall
meet and crush them, if we can. At
least OWE CONQUER OR DE-.
Boys, you're in the army now.

JOHN L. LEWIS

John l.. Lewis, President of the
United Mine Workers, is a great Am
erican, a GREAT MAN. He is doing
for workers here what the present war
is doing for workers in England. lift
ing them to the higher levels of econo-
mic and social life. The problems in
England, met and mastered by Ernest
Bevins, had their roots deep in centur-
les Of caste, that status developed by
class prejudice, sometimes misnamed
class interest. Here in America John
L Lewis has faced a more difficult
problem than that faced by Bevins in
England. For here in America, Lewis
has faced the class and caste problem,
and with it, always making solution
difficult, the COLOR PROBLEM,
created by the presence here of $1,000
600 Negroes, ninety per cent OF whom
are workers in the commonly accepted
use of that term.
When the history of our time is
written in the clear perspective requir-
ed, John L. Lewis will be assigned a
place beside Washington and Lincoln.
Washington gave some Americans free
dom, leaving some in slavery. Lincoln
moved the principle a little farther
forward to embrace physical freedom
for the Negro, at the cost of a MIL
LION LIVES AND A BILLION IN
TREASURE. And then only partial
physical freedom became the posses
sion of the blacks. They had been
worked; now, they must learn to work
as freemen, and they did. But they
suffered from low wages and incomes
and bad working conditions. John l..
Lewis is moving successfully to alter
this condition and make the Negro, a
long with other workers economically
free. And such a service, rendered
without shock to our social order, is
the most important single contribut-
ion made by an American since the Re-
public was founded.
We say these things now, be-
cause we wish John L. Lewis to know
that his work is being evaluated and
appreciated during his lifetime. And
we but express the thought of 15,000,-
900 Negroes Of the United States.

lie servants alike.
Lewis will win through, make no
mistake about that.


INDIA
Mahondas Ganhi, Indian leader,
expresses the hope that the British
Empire may endure and overcome Hit
ler. He wishes this in face of the fact
that England has for many general
ions opposed and exploited India and
the Indians. He thinks a Hitler Wet
DRY would be fatal to civilized life and
all liberty and ~sacredness of human
personality as we know them. India,
he says, may wait for her liberation
from the Crown.
Such a generous attitude on
Gandhi's part in the present crisis will
brng to his side in the coming post
war years men Of good conscience the
world over. And he and India will be
buttresSed by the knowledge that what
he did was right when the desire and
the opportunity were great to seize
power at Britain's expense.
We hopefully wait to see the land
which produced Guatama-Buddha, at
tain its rightful place in the family Of
Nations.

Omaha, Nebraska, SATURDAY., August 16. 1941

ETY. Of the tax" Bishop William T.
Manning assailed the provision on
other grounds when he said: eff Con-
gress retains this provision, those who.
lave been :hrcrced-or vino live II i'll
moral sexual relationship will CO
called on to pay far less to the govern
rnent than the married couples" AND
David Lawrence points out that the
Supreme Court has even gone so far
as 10 hold that. even where a husband
and wife receive a joint income from
a single source, they have the !eg:li
light to file separate returns for tax
purposes"
Still another general criticism of
government fiscal policy is that almost
nothing has yet been done to reduce
non-defense Federal spending. Vari-
Gus authorities, including Treasury
experts, have estimated that $1,000
100000 to $4,000, 1000, 900 could be saw
ed by pruning unnecessary and avoid
able items from the budget.
Summing up, the feeling is almost
universal that all Of us, without except
ion, must pay greatly increased taxes,
and make all necessary sacrifices for
defense. But many economists regard
the next tax bill as a helter-skelter af-
fair, unsOund, and in some cases con-
fiscatory, which needs a thorough ov-
erhauling.

soul satisfying. To be patient is to
have self control plus faith-to know
that in the last analysis, "all things
work to good for them that love God"
Think of those whom you adj
mire most, and you will see how this
quality stands out. 1t was patience
and the ability to wait that enabled
Washington to hold out long after the
more Jealous and daring Of his col
leagues felt the game was up. 1t vas
patience and the ability to wait that
carried Lincoln through the darkest
hours of the Civil War. And so has it
been from time immemorial- with lit
tie people as we'll as great-with I'M
sung heroes as well as with those re-
nOwned in song and story.
But patience does not mean just
sitting down to wait. To wait patient
y requires constructive action. 1t
means careful consideration Of the end
you wish, and the taking of every step
to bring that end about with due re-
gard for others. 1t means doing your
duty day in and day out, working hon
estly and sincerely at your daily tasks,
anG fitting yourself bodily and mental
ly for the day when your ship comes in.
When that has been done, it means
waiting patiently and cheerfully and
working while you wait.
And this applies not only to the
individual but to all groups within the
nation and to the nation itself. The
changes, the reforms we all want to
see made require patience and waiting
while we are actively trying to bring
them about.
There are many sincere reform
ers who are vociferously advocating
all sorts Of panaceas. Destroy the
DID," they cry. Anything is better
than what we have"
But this is not the American way.
Reform means to remake, to reshape-
not to break. In our impatience We too
often feel that to reform a situation
we must change it completely over
night. We can wipe out all abuses in
America. We can reform Jul country
into the Utopia Of which we dream, if
we will work together and utilize the
thought and brains and abilities we al
ready possess. We can do this if we
work together our souls in
patience. Neither Utopia nor Rome

Most important Of all for tho

and get away with il. for their
height invariably counterscts
ayoirdupois.
But il we are even two pounds
over our correct weight, it shows.
And it is a well-known fact that
short women who are stout look
even shorter. For this reason il
is important to watch your diet
carefully and to practice specific
exercises sssiduously.
There are few simple stretch
ing exercises which can make you
look taller. even though they may
not actually add inches to your
stature.
One goes ike this. Hold a stick
i. both hands high over your head,
as you stand on tiptoes with one
foot in front of the other. Stretch
the stick as high up as you can,
stretching your entire body up at
the same time, and walk slowly
around the room on your toes.
Remember that you're as tall as
you feel. and it is entirely pos
sible to possess dignity and poise.
even though you're what every
body calls Just bit of thing"
