Charles Willis Thompson, noted New
York historian and book reviewer, whom we
are proud to list among our readers, writes
an interesting letter to Charles White NC
Gehee, associate editor of the summit Sun.
If our readers are interested IN the true
historical background of the war now being
waged by Germany and England as well as
some of the background of the first World
War we suggest you read Mr.. Thompson's
letter which we reprint herewith:
eve are in the war against Germany as much
as England is. Further, you blame Roosevelt for II,
but it is where the American democracy has been all
along. Such peace talk as you hear means, only, the
silly hope of such unrealistic dreamers as imagine we
can be in the war up to our necks las we are) without
sending our boys to Europe as We did in 1917.
'Why is this unrealistic? Because our boys would
be over there now if they were either needed or
wanted by England. England, at present, wouldn't
have them there at any price. If the present posi-
ton alters and she does need them, they'll be over
there before you can say Jack Robinson. For that
reason it is as idle for you, or for any one else, to
debate with yourself what our policy should be as it
would have been to debate it in 1918 just before
Ludendorff's defeat and when our boys had been
fighting there for months under Foeh. We were no
more definitely in the war then than we are now.
The only reason we're not actually fighting, aside
from the fact that England at present can't care Tor
the soldiers she has, let alone taking on another
army, is that we can't get at the Germans and the
Germans can't get at us. That situation, too, may
change. II it does, We'll be in Europe quicker than
a wink.

New Bus Station Il.

II has been reported that the Tri-States
Bus Company is contemplating moving ls
location from Front Street to the rear OF
the Hotel Durant on Highway 5l.
In the interest Of public safety ION
venience and good will it seems to us the
Bus Company should be able to find a better.
location.
The proposed location is on the corner
of highway 81 which is the busiest corner
in town. 1t is on the street on winch Is
located the Durant school and nundreds %
school children pass that corner four times a
day. Traffic there now is very congested
and the increased traffic with buses parked
three and four deep as they sometimes are
is going to make it a real hazard.
Unless the Bus Company intends TO
monopolize all of the parking space on this
street in Durant we do now see how or where
they expect to discharge their passengers or
find a place to park their buses.
The City installed traffic lights several
months ago in order to combat traffic on
that corner and it has helped measures some.
But it is still a very dangerous corner ana Is
going to be much more so If the bus STATION
is located there.
Residents in this vicinity are very much
opposed to the location of the bus station
here and parking BUSES in front OF their
houses, according to what they tell us.
certainly the life of one child passing
that corner is a great deal more important
than any advantage the Bus Company might
have in being located there.
From our viewpoint we cannot see one
advantage in the bus station being located
there, either for the bus company or the
hotel. Certainly it will be a nuisance to hotel
guests. -
All in all it seems that Tri-State officials
should think twice before they make any
such move.
If they do move the Mayor and Board
of Aldermen will more than likely be COM
PEELED, like our neighboring city, Canton,
to pass an ordinance prohibiting their STOP
ping and parking to discharge customers on
the streets.

ing commodities. We cannot believe
there are q many people in real
distress. The philosophy today seems
to be get while the getting is good"
and we might as well get it as
! other folks"
There is something revolving in the
idea of strong, ablebodied citizens
getting in line and going up and be-
ing issued groceries. 1t is degrading
human nature to accept such favors
from a benevolent government. 1t is
developing a class of people who
look TO the government for a living
and making weaklings out of them.
The fact that the government con
dones and encourages such under
Hr, Roosevelt's administration is
evidence that before long, if present
practices continue, the government is
going to be the dominant factor and
employer of the majority of the peo-
pie of our country.
If that isn't a definite trend to-
ward socialism and dictatorship we
don't know what to call it.
When government feeds, clothes
and educates people and gives them
employment if they have any, it de-
mands something in return. How
many people working in the thous-
ands of bureaus in Washington vot-
ed against Roosevelt? How many
people on relief voted against him?
Mr.. Roosevelt has already achieved a
political dictatorship. Witness his
picking the vice-presidential candi-
date at Chicago when none of the
delegates wanted Wallace.
y y y
All of the state editors who have
been hollering so about the number
of people on relief in Mississippi
haven't had anything at all to say
about our government spending
millions Of dollars to give the people
in Spain food.
Could it be they want to feed the
Spanish and let u own folks either
grow the food or do without?
Evidently.
