U-BOAT MENACE:
On the Run?

Axis submarines operating along
the Eastern seaboard have been
driven out into the Atlantic, accord
ing to Chairman Carl Vinson (Geor-
gia) Of the house naval affairs COM
mittee.
His disclosure came in formal
statement which added that the
"anti-submarine warfare organiza-
ton has passed through its period
of growing pains and is now well
established and functioning effec-
lively"
''In dealing with submarines we
have e. tough and clever enemy"
the statement said, land it does not
pay to be unduly optimistic. How
ever, the fact remains that in the
last few weeks the submarine has
largely withdrawn from our eastern
seaboard and is operating farther at
sea
"The committe has full con-
fdence that we shall defeat the
submarine"

A VILLAIN
is CAPTURED
AS HE WADDLED ACROSS the
lawn on his little short legs, I
scooped him up in a long-handled
pan. Scientists would tell you he
was talpidae. To me he was a
mole, against which / had sworn
dire vengeance if could catch him.
For weeks he had committed dep
relations in my flower beds. He
had burrowed under and around
the tender plants, killing the young
roots. Day after day I had followed
the ridges made by his borrowings
in the soft earth. had stamped on
these ridges with my feet, hoping he
might be under my heavy heel.
Now had him there in a pan
from which he could not escape. /
examined his little shovel-shaped
snoot, his tiny eyes. ! put my finger
on his soft fur. I realized he had
done only what Nature had fitted
him to do. Each minute I watched
his frantic efforts to climb up the
side of that pan my ire lessened,
and in the end / pardoned him, or
rather, changed the sentence from
capital punishment to exile.
I carefully carried him across to
a vacant lot, full so feet from my
nearest flowers, and turned him
loose. The next morning he was
back in my flower beds, and again
I have sworn dire vengeance if ]

BOND LOTTERY

Rep. Adolph SABBATH OF illinois,
genial chairman of the house rules
committee, wasn't able to sell the
President on ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
lotteries when he called at the White
House. However, he was given
novel idea on how to use the lot
terry principle in the sale Of war
bonds.
SABBATH commended that 1egalized
lottery, conducted monthly by the
treasury, would greatly aid in re-
lieving taxation and raise billions in
revenue for the war effort.
Under a bill he is sponsoring,
the Illinoisan said, the government
would realize approximately $685.
O00,000 from the sale Of a billion
81 tickets, whereas if it borrowed
this amount at per cent for 20
years, the interest alone would total
$525, 100000.
sit wouldn't be the first time our
government has held a lottery" ar
gued SABBATH. eve did it in 1776 to
help finance the Revolutionary war"
Eyes, know p said the Presi-
dent, adding that he doubted the
advisability of lotteries at this
time because Of the strong oppo-
sitiOn Of religious groups. In
stead, he proposed compro-
mise.
why not apply your lottery ideas
to the sale of war bonds" he sug-
gested. "Thei Belgian government
held bond lotteries for number Of
wears" 5 M

A LONG LINE THAT
THE AXIS CAN'T BEAT
Released BY WESTERN Newspaper Union.

A LONG LINE THAT
THE AXIS CAN'T BEAT
FOR FOUR LONG DAYS, IL to
IA hour days, that line of men did
not seem to grow less. Of the men
in that line, three out of four had
gray hair and wrinkled brows, the
evidence of advancing years.
During the warm days of early
spring, had seen a number of the
men now in that line occupying
benches in the public square. There
they had worn a look of despond-
ency; despair and hopelessness were
written upon their faces. They had
reached the end OF their road and
were but awaiting the final sum-
mons. a a#
The occasion was the registration
of men between the ages of As and
65 for service to the government.
Could the Huns or the Japs or the
Wops have seen that line OF eager
men, they would have realized how
thoroughly back of the government
are the men of America.
There was broadcloth and over
alls, wealth and poverty, represent
ed in that line. The one did not give
way to the other; all were equally
eager to reach the registration desk
and report themselves as ready for
service in the cause of America.
In that line were all colors-white,
black, brown, red and yellow-rep-
resenting all races. In it were men
representing practically all nations,
but all were Americans, either by
birth or adoption.
In that line were men who had
not worked for years. Some who
were physically disabled, others
who did not need to work. But on
every face was expressed that will
ingness, that keen desire to do his
part, whatever that part might be,
that this country-their country
might live.
That line was America. It did
not represent the glamour and adj
venture of war as previous regis
trations had done. 1t did represent
a desire to serve.
The place was rural community,
one Of Americas small cities.

sHAKY CHINA

Chinese leaders In Washington are
not shouting it from the housetops,
but behind closed doors they are
doing some tough talking to the eff
feet that an increasing number of
Chinese are getting discouraged
about the, war and would like to see
some kind Of appeasement with ia
pan. Chinese leaders give this as
the reason why China must have air
planes-and have them immediate
".
The Chinese don't demand q
lot of planes. But they do say
that even small fraction of the
munitions going to Russia would
work wonders in bolstering Chi
ma.
Here is the Chinese picture now
being presented to U. S. war strate-
gists. After five years of war, the
Chinese are warweary. Most dis
couraging thing is the ironical fact
that the Chinese are worse off now,
with Allies, than they were before,
fighting alone. The Chinese were
delighted after Pearl Harbor be
cause it meant they had a powerful
ally against Japan. But now after
six months Of it, they almost wish
they had been left to hold out alone.
That is why recent reverses in
Burma and along the China coast
have shaken Chinese determination
down to the foundation. d
Generalissimo Chang Kai-shek
is mot weakening. But many Chi
nese are, especially the well-to- Il
do. class, the people who yearn
for restoration Of normal busi-
ness, who would rather have .
chance to make money and live
peacefully even under the JAMS
than to pay the frightful cost of
continued war.
Meanwhile, Japan seems deter
mined to crush China now. Appar-
emily the U. S. bombing raids on
Tokyo scared the Japs sick, made
them see the danger of nearby Chi
nese bases, caused them to shift
their strategy to cleaning up China
ahead of other warfronts. b

O. AMERICA
By Albert j. Bates

Hats off to the women of Amer
ical
BY the millions they have an
swered the call to support the war
effort in literally scores of occupa-
tons from paid jobs in workshops
to volunteer work with war service
agencies. Every day sees more 60
ing into service.
In 1918 an estimated $500, 900
women worked in our war plants.
No accurate figure is available on
the size of the present-day women's
army, but authoritative sources set
the total at around 8 900. 900 engaged
in war industries and establish
ments allied with the war effort.
Add to this the millions, largely
housewives and those of indepen-
dent means, donating their labor to
the Red Cross, Office of Civilian
Defense, United Service Organiza-
tions, civic and other agencies en-
gagged in war aid. and the total is
easily 20, 600, 900. They are in there
pitching! Shoulder-to-shoulder they
stand with their men, unfiinching,
sacrificing . doing their bit!
Whatever their stint . be il
working at a lathe, knitting or sew
ing, running a typewriter or driving
a taxi-cab . the sum total Of
their efforts will help spell victory.
Keep Pitching, America!
