All Federal Workers Moi 0yerworked;; One
 Parasite Gives Dope
BY JACK sTINNETT

WASHINGON. Aug. 20 Those Washington parasites have been found hundreds of them They are not the ones that the Presi- dent was talking about, however, when he suggested some months ago that the capital parasites should get out of town to relieve congestion.
 They are not ones that many government officials would talk about, if you can take the word of a young lady employed here. And incidentally the young lady upsets the oft-repeated plaint that ALL federal war workers are over worked.

The W ashington Merry Go Round
By DREW PEARSON tMajor Robert 8. Allen on active duty)

WASHINGTON-Behind the Jus tice Departments decision to place before a grand jury the case of the Chicago Tribune and its cor respondent Stanley Johnston for alleged revelation of war secrets is story which goes back to Dec 5, 1941, two days before Pearl Har- bor.
 At that time, the Tribune and associated newspapers. the New York Daily News and Washington Times Herald. published a sensa- tional story about secret war plans of the United States to build up an army of 10,000,O0o men. The story was documented by confi- dential memos exchanged between the President and his Secretaries of War and Navy. Obviously the Tribune had got hold of one of the most important war secrets of the United States.
 Some members of the Adminis- tration urged prosecution of the Tribune, but Pearl Harbor came two days later, and the matter was dropped in the hope that war would unite all factions of the na- ton.
 After the battle of Midway, how ever. the Chicago Tribune, New York News and Washington Times Herald published story written by Stanley Johnston which stated that the U. s. Navy knew in ad- vance the complete strength of the Japanese fleet and the fact that it was headed for Midway Island.

The Tribune story even pub lished the exact number of Jap ships and gave their names.
 Ostensibly, the Navys possession of this advance information was due to superior intelligence work. Publication of the story was en- barrassing to the Navy. Advance information regarding the enemy is priceless in wartime and this par ticular information had permitted

These are only few of the jobs which need officers to see that they are run right, 50 join now and maybe you will put yourself in line for such a job.
 This country needs you now to help put on a fight from within to back-up those who are putting up a fight from without. There must be hundreds of high school boys and girls who are hanging around the street corners, while a good part of this time could be used to do something worthwhile for victory. So if you are approached in the near future and asked to join the Junior Victory Army, don't refuse but give a few of your spare hours for victory. And if you for some reason are not approached, sign the blank below. For further in- formation get in touch with your Civilian Defense Office.

 The type of exercise we should take will depend upon our work. For office workers, vigorous sports are beneficial. Older people, not much interested in sports, can al- ways take a good fast walk.
 SETTING-UP EXERCISES
 ARE UNPOPULAR
 For those doing heavy labor, hard exercise at the end of the day would not always be attractive, and in some cases it might lead to ex- haustioE. Heavy work indicates some exercise which works out muscles not used in the daily job.
 Setting-up exercises are useful, but many persons will not keep them up very long. Walking is the best thing. Practically all of us would be benefited by good brisk two-mile walk every day.
 Probably the most pleasant and useful kind of exercise is some sort of game. preferably played in the open air. But persons over forty

Charlottesville, Va, July g - U. s. imperialism against La- tin American nations is as incon- ceivable as a war between the two great English-speaking nations, said Samuel Flagg Bemis, Professor of Diplomatic History and Inter-Amer- ican Relations at Yale University, in an address today before the 1nSti- tute of Public Affairs at the Uni versity of Virginia.
 Despite the imperialism of 1898- 1917, Professor Bemis declared that the United States was fundamental ly an anti-imperialist nation.
 Inter-American
 "The present organization of the inter- American world is not an ex- elusive political product of the Uni ted States; 1t is joint inter- Amer ican design for peace and the good life; but 1t can be said securely that it would not have been possible without heavy sacrifices by the peo- pie of the United States for the cause of human brotherhood, and that it is a manifestation of the anti-imperialistic sentiment which has traditionally animated our fell low-citizens since the birth of their Independence"
 "Yankeephobia," hatred of the U. s. which was stirred up in Latin America by European powers, has now been dissipated, he declared, and replaced by Pan American movement of good will.
 "The Good Neighbor Policy did not spring from any fear of Hitler" he said, although it is certainly providential that it developed before he seized the center of the world stage. It stemmed from two princi- pal causes: l. the inherent and tra-

say that a few are doing a little, scattered throughout the nation, but that is not enough, we want to be organized and be able to point to some definite job and say, "we did it". At that time and at that time only, will we feel that we have organized the youth of the nation sufficiently, to back and take credit along with our armed forces for at least 8 part of that all out goal, Victory. And to those who have already joined these officers above are going ahead with plans or se- curing instructors to teach those members something about the indl- yidual jobs they signed up for. so please do not bother your recruilcr with a barrage of when's, where s and how's, because within the next two weeks many courses and activi- ties will be started. We all are 1n- terested in victory, but we can only go so fast, just like the Armed Forces we will win in time.

ditional anti-imperialist sentiment of the people of the United States and, ?. the apparent safety of the two oceans that seemed secured after Versailles by the defeat of Germany, and by the Washington treaties of 1922 for the settlement of the naval problems of the Pacific and Far Eastern question"
 Peace Machinery
 Minimizing any danger from American imperialism at the con- clusion of World War II, Professor BemiS called attention to U. s. ties with the Pan American movement through scores of multilateral treaties, as well as pious worship to hundreds of resolutions, declarations and other expressions of inter American good will. These treaties include the great conventions that set up the peace machinery of the New World, for protection against the disturbers of the peace machin- cry of the New World, for protec- ton against the disturbers of the peace from within, and from with out.
 Ut is inconceivable that we should throw over these expressions of good will, republicanism, fraternity, and liberty; that we should violate these solemn treaties for the main tenance of peace among us all, just as unthinkable as a war between the two great English-speaking na- tions. It would be against the very nature and character of the Amer ican people"

years of age should be cautious about choosing a sport. Violent games such as boxing, basketball handball and tennis should be left to young people in good physical condition.
 Of course, a good deal of exer- else must be done indoors, partic- ularly in the winter. Bowling is good, and is suitable for all ages Ping Pong is fun, and it is surpris- ing how much exercise one can get out of a fast game. Don't forget swimming or even good old-fash- toned horseshoe pitching.
 The important things to be re- membered about exercise are as fol- lows:
 l. Do it regularly. Everyone should have some sort of exer- else every day, and the active games should be played at least three times 8 week.
 2. Don't OverdO. Do not be- come exhausted by exercise, but simply pleasantly tired.
 3. Get some fun out of 1t. Dull stupid exercise is just more hard work and does little good.

teams have put on quite show.
The forward pass has played
more important part than ever
before.
The running attack is still the
backbone of the game and must
be considerable threat. at
least, 10 enable the pass attack
TO function.
A good tough plunging full

a pass attack.

think Michigan will win be-
cause there is no better col

They had the advantage of a

and they can 60 sixty minutes,
IL need be. They've done it be-

There Is another reason we
pick Michigan. There are five
men in the Michigan backfield
this season who have averaged
close to five yards per try. Two
others have averaged almost
four yards each time they
handled the ball.
Michigan has the most tai
ented bunch of backs ever as
