A FEW THOUGHTS ANENT
BRITAIN AND FRANCE
[a:S7F73(;3jZ.yS]

A FEW THOUGHTS ANENT
BRITAIN AND FRANCE
IN 1918, WHILE World War was
on, ! went to Europe. sailed from
New York on a British transport,
with all the feeling of affection for
France of an American schooIboy.
I had learned reverence for France
from school histories, and from the
same source, I had learned to twist
the tail of the British lion at every
opportunity.
In France I met and talked with
people of every social strata, from
the president, cabinet members, Of
ficers of the army and the cab driv-
ers. While there I lost all my af-
lection for France and the French
people. No single Frenchman had
a kind word for any soldier of any
army of the allies other than the
French. They did not recognize any
other force as being engaged In the
war. While we, IN America, were
eating dark bread and doing with
out meat portion of the time, you
could get the best Of white bread
and the best of meats in any guam
tity at any French restaurant at
any and all times.
They looked upon the soldiers Of
other nations, fighting in France, as
a source of profit for themselves.
The American soldier paid more for
what he bought than any other sol
der, because he had more money.
The French were selfish, taking all
they could get and giving as little
as possible.
Just the reverse was true In Eng
land, and ! returned to America
after the close of the war with the
greatest possible admiration for the
English government and the English
people, and radical dislike for
France and the French people.
There may be good Frenchmen
and Lafayette was one of such. II
we owed anything to France because
of Lafayette we paid it. The French
people and the French government
today are showing their true colors.
We can well afford to forget our af-
lection for France. We should re-
wise our school histories.

A GOOD OLD-FASHIONED
REVIVAL NOW NEEDED

WHAT AMERICA again badly
needs is responsibility to Christian
God"
That statement was made to me
a year ago by Daniel Schuyler, a
prominent Chicago attorney.
"a good, old-fashioned revival,
with all America on its knees at the
mourners bench, would come nearer
to putting this nation back on an
even keel than any political Dogma"
he continued. cit would squelch the
growing class consciousness. It
would stop the mad craze for wealth
and position. It would cause each OF
us to think of his fellow man in
terms of Christian charity. 1t would
restore our belief in the cardinal
virtues. Yes, we need more than
anything else good, old-fashioned
revival"
I know Daniel Schuyler very well.
He is not what I would call a re-
hgious man, and I am not sure that
he is a member of any church. He
is student Of government and or
dered society, and was thinking of
that "good, old-fashioned revival"
from the standpoint of its effect on
our relation to government. He saw
in religion, in feeling of respon-
sibility to Christian God, a vital
part in our philosophy of govern
ment.
was reminded of that statement
by Daniel Schuyler a few days ago
when w. o. Hart, editor of the
Orange (calif.) Daily News, said to
me:
''The American people should
again get back to that sublime faith
IN a Supreme Being which was the
guiding beacon of our forefathers.
We need to feel a responsibility to
a Creator in order that we may have
a feeling of responsibility to our
government and to our fellow men.
Such a condition would save the
civilization we know. We need to
make sacrifices, but to do that, we
need an aroused spirituality"
Both men, one in Chicago and
the other in California, were seeing
the subject from a governmental
viewpoint. Both see in a good, old
fashioned revival a means of saw
ing American civilization as we
have known it.
If you will analyze the statements
of these two individuals, you will
find they represent an ideal philos-
ophy of government.
THE PEACE RUMORS may all
be German propaganda, but Hitler
would not be averse to negotiated
peace while he can dictate the
terms. He would undoubtedly be
satisfied If allowed to keep what he
has, with a few colonies thrown IN
for good measure.

Speculation about the number

the principal topic of conversation
among the states 100000 deer
hunters this year. When the ban
on doe killing was lifted by the
Legislature after 20 years of the
one-buck law. sales of camp per-
mits skyrocketed. With one per-
nit issued to a party of four or
more hunters. and with anuerless
deer legal only on these permits,
this season more than 10000 were
sold, against 703 last season.
1t is reasonable to expect that
close to 90 per cent of the special
permits will be filled. So far we
have yet to find a single camp
that has not been successful in
getting their camp meat.
The conservation department
has printed two additional sup
plies of these permits and still
