At first Mrs. Price just sat there

she was a fine housekeeper IN a

them--and better for her"
She said practically the same

Mrs. Price shuddered. "Oh.

simpered. Linda and Mary both

"What bout your hands?
Oughtn't they 10 be nice?" Nina
popped.
Mrs. Price sighed and looked
meek. I'm not complaining. i

the false expectancy of an early
peace, regardless of the source from
which it may emanate," Senator
Lucas, Democrat, of Illinois. declared
in a Fourth of July address here
today.
Senator Lucas warned that the
freedom guaranteed under the Con-
stitution was more insecure at this
hour than at any time in the history
of the Nation.
Il feel that way" he said, "be-
cause I fear sometimes we under
estimate our enemy. 1t should be
remembered that the Japs, as we'll
as ourselves, have never lost a war
We must also recognize that the
Nazi Germans now being led by the
despicable Hitler are resourceful,
aggressive, ruthless and cruel.
Associated with these fanatical
peoples are the people of Italy, who
are duped into following an egotis-
tical, impotent, fraudulent, Napo-
leonic crackpot. People who believe
in such desperate and pagan philosi-
phies and who have carefully pre-
pared for war on a world scale, cam
not be defeated without a great hu-
man struggle.
Il have complete confidence in
the final outcome, however. The
only thing am saying is that it will
be long hard road to travel. Re-
gardless of where you stood before
Pearl Harbor, everyone must get
into this scrap, and we must meet

Test Flight Of 70-Ton Mars PIeoses
Builder, but Larger Ship Is in the Making

80 seconds after William K Ebel,
veteran pilot, had given it the gun.
After a half hour flight Mr. Ebel
dropped the plane down on marble
tabletop. Later the plane was taken
aloft and landed again.
Among those who watched the
performance was Brig. Gen. James
H. Doolittle, who led the raid on
Toxic. The Mars is credited with a
full bomb load of something like
8 or 10 tons. That would give it
plenty to make a round trip from
American bases to Toxic or Europe.
For Cargoes or Bombing.
Mr.. Martin has been an enthusis-
tic advocate of the use of this type
of huge plane for carrying war
cargoes as we'll as for bombing.
IF we're ever going to do the job
Of transporting cargo by air, the
time is now at hand" he declared.
The flying boat is a more formi-
dable weapon than the obsolete
ships of the Navy. The growth of
this f1ylng ship is similar TO the
growth of the battleship. But the
battleship is not able to stand the
punishment which this flying boat
can evade"
The Navy has not yet accepted
the Mars and further experimental
flights will be made before it is COM
missioned. Mr. Martin said that
the Navy had not placed additional
orders for any planes like it and
added that it would take sometime
for his plant to get into produc-
ton of the huge planes.
This is likely to remain a lone,
experimental model, it was indi-
Gated. For the Martin engineers
are already working on plane
which will dwarf the Mars-a 25O,-

nearly twice the. size Of the ship
which made yesterdays fight.

Text of Statement.
The text of Mr.. Roosevelt's state
ment follows:
For 166 years this fourth day OF
July has been a symbol to the people
of our country of the democratic
freedom which our citizens claim as
their precious birthright. On this
grim anniversary its meaning has
spread over the entire globe-focus-
ing the attention of the world on
the modern freedoms for which all
the United Nations are now en-
gagged in deadly war.
ON the desert sands Of Africa,
along the thousands Of miles Of
battle lines in Russia, in New Zea-
land and Australia and the islands
of the Pacific, in War-torn China
and all over the seven seas, free
men are fighting desperately-and
dying-to preserve the liberties and
decencies of modern civilization.
And in the overrun and occupied
nations Of the world. this day is
filled with added significance, COM
ing at a time when freedom and
religion have been attacked and
trampled upon by tyrannies un-
equaled in human history.
Never since it first was created in
Philadelphia has this anniversary
come IN times so dangerous to every
thing for which it stands. We cele-
brate it this year, not in the fire
works of make-believe, but in the
death dealing reality Of tanks and
planes and guns and ships.
