which will not fail them"
Youth Is tired of listening TO
scientists and social engineers and
political program makers who have
failed to produce effective remedies
Tor such a day as this" Dr.. Wickey
said,
IF democracy Is the best form OF
government. why are we afraid to
say so In our classesp If Christian
1ty has values and principles abso-
lutely necessary for the perpetuity
OF civilization as well as the peace
OF the individual, why are we hesi-
tant In so teaching?"
Henry w. A. Hanson, president Of

task is to perfect technique and

never again lack leaders and edu-
Gators who can employ the products

Small, Quality Army Foreseen
Maj. Eliot Sees Defensive and Offensive Roles
Closely Linked With Command Of the Sea

General Headquarters Air Force.
ThE force must be ready to give
immediate support and indeed pre-
pare the way for such expeditions,
as well as to provide immediate
concentrations of striking power
against any suddenly appearing
threat to our vital positions and
centers, either in conjunction with
the fleet or in the defense of one
coast when the fleet is operating
on the other. Particularly must the
long range bombers of the G. H. @.
Air Force be ready to smash in its
initial stages any attempt to es-
tablish by surprise base of enemy
activity within striking distance Of
any important American center or
position.
Command of the sea, maintained
by the use and existence of all these
means-naval, land and air-con-
fers in turn the necessary mobility
with which to use the forces avail
able. Historically, it has been the
task of the British Army to strike
at an exposed enemy flank or weak
point, the navy giving it the mobility
to reach such a point, and protect
ing and maintaining its line of
communications afterWard as in
the Peninsular and Crimean Wars.
Mass Army Difficult.
Obviously for such purposes the
mass army is unsuited. Its great
numbers make difficult it's nainte-
nance overseas. Its average quality
cannot, within any reasonable period
of time in the future, come to equal
that of the armies of certain for
eign powers. 1t is in fact a defen-
sive weapon. a last reliance for use
in case of our loss of sea command.
And 1t is toward the maintenance
of sea command that our efforts
ought to be primarily directed. We
are exempted from the maintenance
for defensive purposes of a huge
citizen army. because we have no
hostile neighbors which can menace
us. Our first defensive purpose Is
therefore to prevent the transporta-
ton by sea or air to our shores
of any hostile force. And our shores
in this connection are the shores
of all the Western Hemisphere. But
we must remember that such a de-
fensive purpose is only the founda-
ton and not the effective purpose
of our national strategy. The es-
sence of strategy is the development
of offensive power from a secure
base. The folly of putting trust In
a purely defensive policy has been
so amply demonstrated by the events
of the last year as to require little
or no argument. 1t remains only to
be determined in what manner and
to what end We shall develop the
offensive. The demands of the i'm
mediate future point all in one di-
rection-the maintenance of the
command of the sea and the ability
to use the pressures and advantages
OF sea power as our chief offensive
weapon. remembering that small
mobile land forces and powerful air
forces of all types are just as es-
sential elements in modern sea
power as are fleets Of warships.
Our resources are not unlimited
We cannot have everything-and
first things must come first. One
has only to consider that today our
principal military problem is to keep
open the North Atlantic sea lanes to
Great Britain to have one forceful
example Of the type of military
policy which must be ours.

President as to what is wanted IN
the world at large, but freedom
from fear here in washington is not
vet achieved. For while there is a
boldness to denounce the dictators
of Europe, there is no such display
of venturesomeness where the die
tatorship of pressure groups is con-
cerned.
Mr.. Roosevelt feared that if he ap-
pointed William S. Knudsen as dl-
rector general of the Office for Pro-
duction Management, labor wouldn't
like it, and if he appointed Sidney
Hillnan as the executive IN charge
of labor matters, management in in
dustry wouldn't like it. So the
President gave broad powers for
each, and now presumably Mr..
Knudsen is supposed to represent
management and Mr.. Hillman Is
supposed to represent labor.
The question might well be asked,
sWho Is to represent American" And
If the sinews of class warfare in
America are to be recognized and
sanctioned in the personnel of the
principal commission dealing with
Americas organization for defense,
then every pressure group in the
future has equal right to representa-
ton.
Alliances Once Shaken OFF.
Time was when man who came
- el,;, 70 eli
and WELD the power and authority
of the Government forsook all ale
glance except to his Government
and the national interest. Time was
when the interests of labor were sup
posed to be cared for by member
of the cabinet known as the Sec
retary of Labor, who was to be
beholden to no group or union or
employer organization, in fact de-
irving a salary only from the public
treasury.
But today things are different. Mr..
Hillman, who has been given CO.
equal powers with William Knudsen
In the defense setup, is still presi-
dent of the Garment Workers Union
with upwards of 100000 members
and he draws a salary from that
organization instead of from the
Government. How can man, who
Is still on the pay roll of G. 1. o.
union which has been in the midst
OF a fight with the A. F. of L., earn
the confidence either of Ameri-
cas- largest labor organization-the
American Federation of Labor--or
OF the employer groups of the coun-
try?
When Mr.. Knudsen came to
Washington, he gave up his position
as president of the General Motors
Corp. with an income of at least
S33O,000 a year. He serves the
Government today for 81 a year
and has no strings on any job in
General Motors where, incidentally,
this week a new man was elected
permanent president.
Logically, Mr.. Knudsen should
have been given by Mr.. Roosevelt
full authority over all questions re-
lating to the Office for Production
Management. He should have had
q set of labor advisers chosen from
the A. F. of L. as well as from the
C. I. o. and, if he did not deal
fairly with labor, there should have
been the right of appeal to the
President. But the executive order
issued by Mr.. Roosevelt manifests
q palpable distrust of Mr.. Knudsen
because he happens hitherto to have
been head of company which en-
ployed labor. The fact that he
worked with his hands only few
years ago and won his way from
