The possible consequences

merely in Singapore but in
Burma, the British East In
dies, Australia and New Tea

danger of dissolution TO the
British Empire.
Churchill relies on the
British navy to prevent the
japanese occupation of Aus
tralia, and at the same mo-
ment announces the destruc-
ton of another great British
battleship, the Barham, by
torpedo.
The British navy will not
save the dominions IL those
essential parts of the empire
are bereft of their man power
and ill-supplied with air
power.

Snlusness of Us.

PHILADELPHIA, Jan. % (UP). - Associate
Supreme Court Justice Owen j. Roberts held today that
the American atttude-"it can't happen to us'-was
responsible for the tragedy at Pearl Harbor.
II cannot understand the smugness of the United
States, he said his first public address since discos
ing the report of investigation of the Japanese attack
on Pearl Harbor II cannot understand its COM
pacency"
In referring to the Pearl Harbor incident Justice
Roberts said:
AT the bottom of it was this sense of superiority
and satisfaction-'H can't happen to we're too big
we're too great; we're building all these arplanes.'

BACK FROM CONVOY

The Pennsylvania, naval
officer in World War l and former
commander of the Veterans of
Foreign Wars, made these state
ments as he returned to his seat in
the House after serving in convoy
duty across the Atlantic.
He was recalled to active duty
soon after the outbreak of hostih.
ties, but now has been placed on
the inactive list until April to aid
in handling war measures in
Congress.
cit Is weIl-known that Hitler
has about 80 submarines---one-
third of his underseas fleet
operating along our coast" Van
Zandt said.
WOULD SPEED PATROLS
obviously he Is trying to
make us spread out our naval
patrols so much that our aid to
England will be curtailed. But
all he Is doing Is sinking stray
ships, or sometimes ships which
get lost from conveys.
There have been no attacks
on conveys In the Atlantic for .
long time, and that's because
our navy Is doing a damned good
job. In the convoy I was in, the
weather was very rough and we
did lose n couple Of ships, but
they were ones that got sepa-
rated.
I'VE mastered the submarine
menace In the last war, and We
certainly can do II now"

A BAD PLACE TO
TAKE A CHANCE

Whoever is elected to the position of
attorney general of California Nov. ),
the state will suffer a loss in that depart
ment of government. This is no retlec-
ton on the present candidates, but nelther
is it any secret that neither of them has
displayed the same high calibre as Attor-
ney General Earl Warren, now campaign
ing for governor.
The Job of attorney general is an I'M
portant one, however, and particularly
SO now. when it must exercise large
measure of leadership in civilian defense
precautions. 1t is not a job on which
the people of California can take
chance; it is not a job in which they want
a man who might be linked with some
theory of government completely alien
to America.
That is why we urge vote for Wallace
L. Ware, one of Californias better known
attorneys. He is little known to politics,
but extremely well known in professional
circles. and greatly admired for his abil
ity and courage.
In taking our stand in favor of Ware,
we realize that we may be going contrary
to the political trend in the state as
whole. Robert w. Kenny, his chief oppo-
nent, is making a strong political race.
We cannot conscientiously support Mr..
Kenny, however, for the reason stated
above We believe this is no time to take
a chance on filling an important office
with a man whose political theories might
be at odds with the American way Of
doing.
Kenny's political associates have often
been on the Communist or fellow-traveler
side during his public life. He has shown
a distinctly leftist leaning in a maj jority
of his actions as a member of the state
legislature. On Oct. IA, 1912, he held a
tea and cocktail party in his home at Hol-
lywood to help raise 100000 to support
the Communist newspaper, The Peoples
World
1t has been our observation that others
with associations similar to those of Mr.
Kenny will twist the law and pervert
the facts to fit their preconceived theor-
les. Possibly Mr.. Kenny would not-but
we cannot afford to take the chance.
Vote for Wallace L. Ware for attorney
general.

STRETCHING
THE RUBBER
christian Science Monitor)

christian Science Monitor)
The new combined rules for rubber
and gasoline rationing bear evidence of
having been carefully pondered. They
contain the promise that if all Americans
play the game fairly, take good care of
their tires, turn in their surplus castings,
and drive slowly there will be sufficient
new tires, synthetics, usable used tires,
or recaps to keep even the wheels of "A
card holders turning for the duration.
This is good news, for people in the
East have already found-as those in
some 81 other States will find after No
vember 22-that following the first ad-
iustment. one can still be happy on a
little less than four gallons a week. 1t
is true some trips to the store must be
accommodated to the neighbor's conven-
ience some social calls Gf they must be
made by carr have to be omitted, the
temptation to drive the car to work II
one misses the train or bus must be thrust
aside Nevertheless Fasteners find their
cars still play an essential part in their
scheme of living. They have been far
from ready to welcome the day when
their tires would be worn out and the
old bus would have to be stored or sold.
So, this tangible evidence of the Bar
uch's committees good work, and of the
subsequent endeavors of Rubber Director
Jeffers and those other Washington agen-
cies concerned with the replacement of
tires, will be greeted enthusiastically. The
speed with which the present stage has
been reached-speed since the Baruch
reports gratifying. 1t is, in fact, an
important integral of the rubber con-
servation program; for tires too badly
worn cannot be recapped. The sooner
tires now in use can be placed under
mileage rationing, and protected from
abuse, the better it is for the rubber pro-
gram. and, of course, the better for the
nations war effort.

VISIT TO BRITAIN

Don't let personal prejudice lead you
to condemn Mrs. Franklin d. RooseveltS
visit to Great Britain.
There has been some unfavorable COM
ment relative to Mrs. Roosevelt's Jaunt,
particularly since it was given social
rather than a political tinge when her
arrival was announced by Buckingham
Palace rather than the British state de-
partment. Don't let that fool you, either.
Mrs Roosevelt can do a world of good
in Great Britain, simply by her presence
there Undoubtedly her visit was arrang-
ed with that thought in mind, and SO
becomes a diplomatic gesture of the first
class, to cement British public opinion
closer to America.
In analyzing the First Lady's visit to
England, it is necessary first to realize
that the British know very little OF the
numerous criticisms she has brought upon
herself over here. To the average English
man, Mrs. Roosevelt is as truly repre-
sentative of the United States as would
be Queen Elizabeth of England should
she pay visit to the White House. AS
such, she can stir in English hearts
great deal of affection for America.
The trip is a good thing for the United
Nations.

TIRE SABOTEURS LOSE
(Santa Barbara News-Press)

(Santa Barbara NeWS-PreSS)
Tire punctures and blowouts on high
ways of California have almost doubled
in the past six months, the department
of motor vehicles discloses. That pre-
sents a major factor in the present rub
ber shortage.
The man who leaves glass, nails and
similar tire destroyers in the gutter, to
have il. pushed or swept out into the road
way never could have won popularity
contest among his neighbors. Now, when
rubber is more precious than gold, he in
vites deserved chaStiSement.
But more than that, he is opening him
self to the justifiable description as a
war saboteur For tires have ceased to
be matters solely of private concern.
They are major weapon against our
axis enemy.
For patriotism, if not from common
decency let's keep glass, tacks nails and
other sharp substances out of the cutters
and off our streets, and give our poor,
thin, irreplaceabe tires a chance to last
it out for Uncle Sam.
