The second of these freedoms for which we are fighting, is the right of every person to worship God in his own way, everywhere in the world. Here in America, we can go to the church of our choice. We may be Catholic, Protestant or Jew or we can interpret the divine teachings of the Bible in any oth- CT manner we desire. Or we can stay away from church in America This decision rests solely with the individual. The third of the free doms for which we are fighting is the freedom from want. Trans lated into world terms, this means economic understandings securing to every nation, healthy peace time life for it's inhabitants, every where in the world.
 We are fighting for the safety and security and permanency oi the small nation and it's people as well as for ourselves and our big brothers. The fourth of these free doms for which we are fighting is freedom from fear. Translated in- to world terms, this means a world wide reduction of armaments, oc such a point and in such a thor ough fashion, that no nation will ever be in position to commit an act of physical aggression against any neighbor anywhere.
 America is fighting for, and American men are giving their lives for, these ideals in this war.
 Opposed Philosophies
 'The present war in the final analysis is the struggle between two absolutely opposite philosophies of life. On the one hand is the live and let live' design for living cher ished by the libertys loving peoples. On the other is the rule or ruin" pattern of wolf Hitler and Con- pany. My friends, our design for living must and will prevail. Any other alternative is unthinkable. Let us think for moment what the defeat of our nation in this war would mean to us.
 Foreign soldiers would be stand ing where we are right now, talk ing whatever they wanted. Our churches, schools, and clubs and lodges would be closed; our courts abolished; our newspapers or radios would be silenced or operated by

SPECTACULAR MUSICAL FOR
 CAPITOL BILL
You'll Never Get Rieh" with Asfaire, HdYworth
 Is Extravaganza

As star-spangled as the flag itself, Columbia's "Youll Never Get Rich" brings Fred Astaire and ravishing Rita Hayworth to the Capitol Theatre Sunday in what has been hailed as the most spec tacular military musical extrava- ganza ever filmed by Hollywood Cole Porter's singable, swingable new lyrics provide tuneful back ground to the film, considered the years mightest bombardment of girls, gags and gaiety
 Miss Hayworth's position as As taire's dancing and romantic part ner has been called, by both critics and fans, as an example of plain common-sense, albeit inspired, !" casting. The young star, one of the most glamorous in Hollywood to- day, made her motion picture de- but as dancer, after she had won international fame on the concert and theatre stage under the name of Cansino. Temporarily abandon ing her terpsichorean efforts in order to establish herself as an actress, Miss Hayworth currently returns to terpsichore with the worlds most famous dancer as her twinkle-toed co-star The net result is said to be grand new fame for both brilliant stars.
 Also on Sundays program at the Capitol will be the March of Time" titled When Air Raids Strike"

BOB HOPE, D0TTY LAM0UR TONIGHT
 FOR LAST TIMES
Caught in inc Drdft" HiI. arious Farce Closes
 al 2Oth Century

Plenty of fireworks the kind that are filled with laughing gags, are keeping audiences hilarious at the goth Century Theatre where Bob Hope and Dorothy Lamour are play ing in Caught in the Draft"
 Paramount's all-out comedy will be seen tonight for the last times. The gun-shy actor creates a laugh riot when he finds himself in the army as the result of a practical joke which backfires on himself. Caught in the Draft" might not be true version of everything the army has to offer its rockies but Bob Hope and his top-flight comedy corps certainly manage to give army life new twist-the kind even the draftees will enjoy.
 Shining Victory" opens at the goth Century Theatre Sunday for a several days run with an excellent cast.

The employer would be serf. The workman would toll at the point of bayonet The farmer would slave to feed residents of the Axis nations. The professional man would practice only as he was directed and for nothing-if at all. The White House would be the home of a dictator. A Nazi would sit in every statehouse in the na- tion.

 Forming Battalions
 ITO prevent such a catastrophe, America is again forming endless battalions to follow our Flag of Freedom into battle. It is the hu- man wall of defense that protects us from enslavement. The safety of the nation, the perpetuation of our freedom, and liberty and en- joyment of life, and the hope of all mankind rests today upon the courage and strength of our armed forces and upon the will, determin- ation and sacrifice of the American people. We must not let anything stand in the way of mobilizing the resources of our great nation. These resources include the financial cen ter of New York, the cotton and tobacco regions of the South, the coal mines of Pennsylvania and Illinois, the cornfields of Iowa and the wheat fields of Kansas, the huge cattle ranches of Montana and Texas, the forests of Oregon and Washington, the garden val ley of California, the shipyards uf New England, the industrial region of the Great Lakes, yes, the vast ness and strength and beauty of this great territory.
 My friends, let us VOW here and now on our sacred honor, to keep the furnaces fed with scrap and steel, to keep our machines pro- ducing 24 hours day, to keep the arms, fuel and food moving to the front, tC banish greed, sell fishness and complacency, to put all our fighting dollars into War Bonds and Stamps, to sacrifice. save, and serve In this spirit here, on this Memorial Day, let us, as did our forefathers of old, bend our knees at the shrines of American Heroes In this spirit, let us re- christen our faith and loyalty to our God and our Country
