Soldiers Opinion

The following letter was written by soldier in a training camp in the United States It presents prob lem that comes up in every The soldier is an Am ercan citizen who is going to have to do his part in paying for the war after it's He doesn't like to see the costs of the mount up as wages climb.
 At the time, in order to secure men for jobs in war production workers have been offered higher Wag than they could get elsewhere But there is no ques- ton in our mind but what every soldier who sees men who are serving their country in lesser capacity than himself get many times more in return has legitimate reason for complaining
 The letter follows:
 "A few days ago my brother, l9-year-old college sophomore, received from a friend letter urging him 10 go work in defense plant He would receive Sl25 an hour for ten hours of work Thus, at job for which weekly salary far beyond his most optimistic dreams
 There is evidently abundance of this kind of en- poyment, for know of people who are serving their country by holding down such defense jobs and who collecting similar boom-time pay checks. h. cluded in this group many who have been re- jected by the Army because of minor physical defects
 Resentful of Civilian Trend
 We men in the armed forces are disappointed and resentfu of this civilian trend. We certainly do not object to serving fighting and giving lives for But we do protest strongly against our brethern who filling civilian occupations and who are receiving much money for their labor than we did for the same jobs. Our very position service men in a country at has made these jobs valuable
 Officers are continually asking how young men like my brother be persuaded willingly to join the Army when they very attractive wages at home And at home these men need not renquiSh their accustomed comforts pleasures and privileges for the inconvenience which accompany Army life.
 The only solution to this grave problem is immed- lately to place ceiling wages and prices. If they go higher, then may hope that wages and living costs will begin to decrease and approach their more normal pre-War level.

War Upon Civilization

HIters war is only partly upon the territory o France and of other nations sharing the French sort o culture. It is upon the kind of civilization France has represented wherever that civilization can be found. Frenchmen have been found who will join in this war. By so doing they cease to be Frenchmen France itself remains what it always was
 France, in short is proof that we are engaged in worldwide civil war, though the enemies on our own territory are too few to bring it home as such to us It IS war of ideas The ideas for which we are fghing are certainly cherished by the majority of Frenchmen and, indeed by most of the people of Europe ncud- Ing not few Germans. What is done in such war Tn the name of France need not shake the citadel of ffench civilization. France never become our en- emy, whatever the words or actions of men speaino the French language but acting according to the inn pulses of Naz hearts

France Cannot Die

France Cannot Die
 Let take good look at France It may help us to see more clearly the issues of France is nation of about 40,000 900 people probably little less now because the Nazi regime has sent the birth rate down and the death rate up It is mixed people, and you might say that there is racialy little in com between the Britons Normans in the north and the BaSques the inhabitants of the old Provence in the south It is also people which for some reason has wanted to be nation, and has fought to be such from the time of Joan of Arc five centuries ago, to the present day.
 But what is a nation? Surely it is not the political leadership at any gwen moment France was recognlZ ably France under Louis XIV, under Mirabeau Marat and Robesperre, under the first Napoleon the Citizen King, the Second Napoleon and amg the ups and downs of the Third Republic. The corruption of her Government did not make her the less France. The failure to plug the gap at Sedan in 1940 and the fail ures behind that failure did not put end to her tional life, Petan could not destroy her by weakness Laval by reachery Hitler cannot destroy her unless he kills or scatters all her people, Even then kind of spiritual entity called France would survive.
 Tradition of France
 The spiritual quality of nationality is tougher than armed forces, though when rallied under arms it n- spires victory Joan rallied it when France gross sink of corruption than she has been since The men of Marsee rallied it in l792 when they marched north to the tune of their remndous song It was ral lied at the Marne and at Verdun In 1889 and 1940 it had it's chance found its voice The men whom political intrigue had thrown into power in Paris in those days seem never to have understood it. Some of them seem to have feared it more than they feared the enemy perhaps even hated more. We have heard but echo of it the soil of European France since June, l940 - and this was when Frenchmen were brought before French at Rom answer charg es to treason. This what the great tradition of France had become in the eyes of Vchy-a species of diSloyalty But the tradition did die It will not die with Blum and Dalader or any living man
 The wrong kind of nationalism can be disease It is so in Germany today It can become at times in almost any nation The right kind is contribution to civilization In France this contribution was illustrat- ed in language of wonderful clarity, in a beautiful sense of logic and proportion in delicate irony humor and tolerance, in an idealism that was sometimes earthy and sometimes heavenly The Frenchman vau- ed himself He had, in Indo-Chna and Africa, his mperialistc moments But he was civilized You could see the future mellow in his thoughts Reman- ing paSSlonatey Frenchman, lie could be good citi- zen of the earth

Nlnctioning in Maryland's favor,
perhaps. will be the fact Duke has
been unable to win on its own field
this season. In two games there
the Blue Devils have lost 26-12, and
26-7, and Coach Clark Shaughnessy
OF Maryland is hoping nothing dis
turbs that jinx.
Mont, on whom Maryland will
bank heavily to pitch them to a
sixth victory in seven games, has
passed for 702 yards this season,
completing Of II against Florida,
two for touchdowns. Elmer Rigby,
who averaged better than 8 yards
per stab in eight ball-carrying at
tempts against the Gators, also is
slated for heavy service.

ATLANTA, Nov. 4. Floridas 5
much-beaten Gators move across
the State to Jacksonville Saturday,
where they are scheduled to be the
eighth victim of Georgia's victorious
football parade OF 1912.
Except for surprise victory over
Auburn in the fourth game Of the
season, Florida's depleted squad has
been punching bag for every major
opponent, but the Floridians are
preparing seriously for the weekend
assignment and an upset mirage
hangs over the practice field.
Looks for Georgia Letdown.
The Bulldogs of Georgia un-
questionably reached the supreme
heights OF their season against Ala
banla, and letdown this week al
most is inevitable, but the idea that
Sinkwich and company were SUM-
GENTLY softened up by the Tide to
lose to Florida seems fantastic-just
as fantastic as football can be, at
times.
At Athens, Coach Wally Butts has
been giving his charges a much
needed rest after the bruising battle
that carried them to national lead
ership last week, but yesterday saw
the Bulldogs in long passing scrim-
mage. Coach Howell Hollis, who
secuted Florida, reports a strong
Gator forward wall that may be able
to stop the Georgia running attack.
Skycrackers Play Auburn.
Georgia's Skycrackers from Ath-
ems Naval Pre-Flight Station will
play Auburn's Tigers at Columbus
Saturday in a game that has the
experts confused. Both teams have
shown flashes of brilliance, but both
have been beaten.
Francis Crin1mins, one Of the fin
est tackles who ever wore the Auburn
regalis, will decorate a strong naval
line when the Skycrackers meet his
old teammates.

yesterday had Len Eshmont, Lou

Kicking also came in for attention,
due to the Cloudbusters' poor exhi-

Georgetown also is likely to en-
phasize air attack, for no team has
scored through the Cloudbusters'
