The Daily Alaska empire., 1941-02-11

More than million boys in the United States too few of them in Alaska-are celebrating this week the 3lst anniversary of the incorporation of the greatest volunteer youth organization in the world-the Boy Scouts of America. Millions of for mer Scouts now grown to manhood are joining in the celebration, grateful for what this boy-loving and y-training institution did for them on their way to citizenship.
 The Boy Scout Way is the best revelation in the boyhood reriod of life of that American Way which is so important part of our heritage. It is an exempfcation of what still other millions of boys may also enjoy only in preparation for adult life but in the actual enrichment of everyday life for them boys.
 We are bound to be hopeful for democracy that has such continuous accession of trained eager life poured into it. that keeps in touch with natures boundless resources. He is fortunate lad who becomes 12 years of age in this week and thus eligible for all that the Boy Scout program has to offer him for years to come.

AN IMPERISHABLE SPIRIT

It is precisely in times of stress that nation most needs its great Lincoln, probably more than any other in American history, has become an integral part of the thinking of people His character has somehow been absorbed into the char acter of the nation, just truly the racial stock of his and earlier times has contributed the phys- cal character of the nation.
 Abraham Lincoln told rough stories, and yet wrote beautiful prose He wavered and hesitated at critical moments and yet managed to steer sound course with magnificent courage. He had flair for castigating his political enemies, and yet his toer ance was enduring He President and it became his tragic task to prosecute great conflict. But the grandeur of his compassionate humanity is what the world best remembers in him.
 Doubtless We tend to overrate Lincoln a states

If Hitler Has His Way

Philadelphia Record)
 Hitler knows what he wants.
 The American people know what they want
 Who's going to win?
 If Hitler has his way
 Congress will debate the Lease-Lend bill unti the Fourth of July-until it becomes Dependence Day instead of Independence Day.
 If Hitler has his way s.4
 Every member of Congress will introduce ar amendment to the Lease-Lend bill and every other member will offer substitute, such Senator Taft's plan to grant Britain loans-tht plan which nearly everybody else doesn't want
 If Hitler has his way
 Congress will devote itself to arguing about the danger of giving President Roosevelt power instead of the danger of giving Hitler time to conquer England and prepare to deal with us
 If Hitler has his way
 wedge will be driven between the United States and England by just such tactics those of Senator Wheeler and other appeasers and real aid to Britain will be put off until it is worthless.
 If Hitler has his way
 Hitler will win
 If the American people have their way
 Congress will exert the utmost speed the LeaseLend bill debate it briefly-under cloture in the Senate, if necessary-and make few simple notifications such as Wendell Willkie has courage ously urged; preferably notifications limiting the duration of the Presidents powers and limiting the value of existing armaments he may lease lend. If the American people have their way
 Congress will then pass the bill and get that aid to Britain
 There will not be any delay there will not be any filibuster and there will not be any appease- ment
 If the American people have their way
 Democracy will win this war
 Congress knows what Hitler wants. It knows what our people have shown, and over, that they want.
 It's up to Congress.
 Congress must decide-for democracy
