Youth for Defense

The armed forces of the United States being given

No longer will it be policy TO induct into the services

The army the navy, the air corps need youth.
Modern war demands that, just has always de-

Every generation must make it's own world. II is the
young who have the greatest stake in what kind of world
II shall be- for il they who must live longest in it,
Thus. while il seems shameful in a way that they should
have to face the chance of being down before
they have had chance to probe deeply into the worlds
beauties land its uglness it also they who hold the
long stake
Some have argued that it is older who should be
sent out TO the since they have already drunk deeply
at LIES fountains and have much less TO lose But it is
by that token that they be entrusted with the
future. To Marshal Petain stumbling down the last

TRANSPORTATION
Is REAL PROBLEM

Producers OF national defense
weapons have joined with rail
and water shipping interests in
demanding establishment Of a
central federal agency TO CO.
ordinate the regulation Of trans
portation problems. Otherwise,
they contend that the steady
flow Of supplies necessary for
re-armament will dry up or be
blocked.
Shortage of equipment al
ready has sent rail and water
rates sky-high. Initiation of
these charges threatens TO
Jeopardize the solvency of many
factories which accepted gov
eminent contracts without suf-
ficient consideration for in
creasing costs in this field.
Worse still, ships and freight
cars are being diverted to haul
ing goods which are not related
directly to the war effort. Nate
rails destined for Britain and
China are piling up at costal
ports. Without drastic inter-
vention by the government. ship
pers insist that the jam will be-
come increasingly serious.
President Roosevelt recog-
nized the need for action some
months ago. He named an in
vestigating and co-ordinsting
body consisting Of Wayne Coy.
Ex-Rep. Charles o. West OF
Ohio and Nelson Smith OF Yer
mont. But the congress refused
TO confirm them or 10 sppro-
pirate any funds for the agency.
An ancient dislike for Messrs.
West and Coy was largely re-
sponsible for congressional hos
tility. Now the shippers urge

nerce Commission member for

DRAWING Closer TO Canada

What the relationship between the United States and
various European countries will be after the
say definitely But thing stands out crystal clear
in this fog of the future and that that the United States
and Canada will be thrown closer together than before
No countries in the world bound by such strong
natural ties of standards of living culture

LABOR AND FARM
BLOCS OPPOSE FDR

The labor and farm Hobbies
in Washington have negotiated

administration moves which
they regard az inimical 10 their
respective interests. Whenever
they have linked arms in the
past, they usually have scored
victories all down the line. They
represent the most powerful
two special groups at the Capt.

Farmers are in revolt against
the plan 10 impose = penalty of
40 cents = bushel for exceeding
their wheat acreage. They arc
growing over the Roosevelt
Wicksrd proposal that people
should eat less dairy stuff. -
that larger amounts can be

that these requests have tended
TO depress prices Of their prod

they have defeated these - far.

General Marshall wants a per-
manent standing force of 1.000.-
600 men. They would be picked
with care from the vast reser-
voir of regulars, selectees and
guardsmen now in service or to
be called later The bulk of the
100000 - possibly 500, 900 -
would be given detailed expert
instruction in every branch Of
warfare. They would constitute
the backbone of a mobile, hard
striking force for use anywhere
that danger might threaten. The
general argues that a modern
military machine cannot be
whipped into shape in twelve
months, or even in two years.
The remaining 100000 would
be used to train future new
corners, for the scheme contem-
plates the calling up of about
100000 civilians annually. These
would be needed To fill vacan-
cies caused by death and resig-
nations from the main body OF
troops. and TO create a reservoir

ton in the event of major crisis.
On their return to civilian life
these men would be kept in a
reserve which would undergo

one month each summer. The
