More scrupulously than ever, in this
time of testing
Because these are not ornamental
handworked wall notices
But working rules and methods,
gained by centuries of experiment.
Our own social structure will not
stand the stresses
Driving into its members now, un-
less we keep to our pattern.
There are some crooked sticks
Some warped timbers, and rotten
fastenings-
All too plainly in sight within our
own construction
Some hot bearings are accumulat-
ing friction all too fast
We cannot, therefore, tolerate Nazi
methods of graft and lawlessness-
Nor departures from principles of
general welfare first
Whether it be in supplies of steel,
rubber, aluminium, quinine-
Or in more vital aspects of labor
relations
And internal labor discipline, af-
fecting production controls
These are the things which make up
our vital powers
To sacrifice them now, is to throw
away our victory.

Arising from contacts with more
highly developed races
Who did not grow up riding horses
bareback
1t is not only defense mechanism,
this "race superiority
1t is an index of the very thing it
seeks to hide
Veritable racial defect, inherent
tribal dwarfsm-
1t is not characteristic in all Ger
man tribes
Being most pronounced among
Prussians-
Hitler, paranoiac Bavarian, is an
abnormality--
But he suits the Prussian purpose.
Task now, of honest nations
Is to restore good faith, decent re-
spect for law
Confidence in fair dealing among
peoples of the world
Ii we cannot do this, we shall all
slide over the bank
Like Gadarene swine, into the sea
of international indecency-
In which the Nazi-Fascist-Nippo-
nese Axis
Is now bathing it's soul.
But, of course,
We must maintain those standards
here
Among our own peoples, in our own
relations
We cannot set these as patterns for
the outlaws
While we practice another set of
ethics among ourselves
This is the reason why, we must set
our own house in order

Demagogues in Congress and else
where are enemies Of straight think
ing, needed now perhaps more than
ever before in America.
Their raucous cries add to present
day confusion at Washington.
Particularly so in Congress, where
taxation, war production, initiation and
other issues have brought forth some
of the silliest discussion it has ever
been the misfortune of this nation to
endure.
eve are showing signs of the de-
moralization of political life which
rotted democracy in European ma
tions," one writer commented some
years ago.
There are indications now that he
spoke truly.
Intelligent discussion of national
problems is vital need. We are hav-
ing too little of it in this year of 1912.
Under a totalitarian form of gov
ernment, the individual usually finds
it the part of wisdom to point out
how lovely everything is. If he doesn't,
something unpleasant is likely to hap
pen to him.
In a democracy, even in the midst
of war, he can say what he thinks
about high and mighty persons and
institutions, and if enough say things
they can get action. AS long as po-
litical government remains democratic
there is chance for freedom in every
direction
Political governments determine
where the shooting is to be done.
That is why criticism is unhealthy
in the totalitarian countries.
We may have grievous industrial
and political evils but as long as the
people have enough devotion to liberty
to maintain freedom to speak, write
and organize, they can force changes
for the better.

has no trouble ordering out the firing
squad. It's a different matter when
there are elected representatives to be
consulted.
When will the masses under the die
tatorships comprehend that?
Despite years of agitation against

then charges of it's use are made.

of us are caught up in united effort
we cannot tolerate sly attempts to
dodge the restrictions and the depri-
vations most of US accept cheerfully.
The people who try to dodge ra-
tioning regulations, who try to beat
price and rent control, who think it
smart to get illegally materials re-
served for the armed forces-such per-
sons are saboteurs as surely as though
they had been landed on our coast
from a Nazi sub. Fortunately they
are few.
The Butler County press. [volume] (Hamilton, Ohio) 1900-1946, 1942-09-04

torting confessions from suspected
criminals by physical or mental tor
ture, or both, is not only barbarous
and illegal; it is confession of policy
incompetency. Good police work con-
victs the criminal without the use of
the third degree" which was fittingly
condemned by the Wickersham Com
mission several years ago.
Calling for the end of the "third
degree" the commission used such ex-
pressions as "unprintable barbarity"
and naked, ugly facts" in discuss
ing it.
When criticized for use of the third
degree" some police officials attempt
in roundabout way to defend it.
Others jim in a chorus of denials or
make feeble attempts to justify its
use. They talk about "coddling" Grim
inals and complain of attempts to
work up public sympathy for vicious
criminals.
They should be sharply reminded
(and labor might we'll take the lead
in doing this) that there is no demand
for coddling or humoring criminals;
the demand is that their constitu-
tional rights be respected.
That is all. Will anyone say that
should not be done?

Echoes from FL Centres battle OF

when an application by kristol
Brothers for salvage license was

The Kristol establishment, which
Junkman Sam Naliboff has brand

me on Main street and the other
on State street. Naliboff had de-
clarcd open war en- both Kristol and
the city council, his complaint
against the latter being the alleg-
alton that Kristol was being per-
mitted to sell junk on Main street
in violation of a city ordinance.
Kristol Brothers were previously
denied a license until further in
vestigation.'
The Kristol application gave the
address of the Junk department"
as 315 State street. Councilmen
noted that the number 315 sis on

Ell Centric city cOuncllmen
met for six hours Wednesday
night.
One of the biggest prob
lens discussed - one that
might very we'll affect any home
owner in the city-was that OF re-
wiring houses after fire.
The city code stipulates that cop
per wire must be used in wiring
a house. The government has vir-
tually banned the use Of copper IN
wiring private dwellings. Fire Chief
Corn Reed asked that the code be
amended, and City Attorney Dorsey
Whitelaw was instructed to draw
up phe puoter papers for the
amendment.
Among the other matters taken
up at the meeting we're:
Whether to continue Roy tombstone
on the payroll in his capacity as
compiler of delinquent tax data for
two more weeks or until the job Is

Prime Minister winston Church
i'll, who again limited that Allied Of
fensive operations we're near, dis
closed that about 1000 casualties
were suffered by the British air,
land and sea forces in the two-day
onslaught that occupied Antsirane,
the town of Diego Suarez and the
arrowhead tip of the big island.
Some pockets of resistance were
being cleaned up and some Vichy
forces repeatedly fell back to the
south to defend the gateway to the
rest of the island by guerrilla meth
DDS, but the British fleet was Or
dered into Diego Suarez bay and it
was believed likely that other STRAIT
egic points on the island would be
occupied later.
The occupation, which gave the
allies control of vital naval base
on the Indian ocean supply before
Japan could move in, was wildly
protested by the pro-Axis press in
Paris, which has long sought to
put France actively into the war
on the side of the Axis. The news
papers called for "active reprisals'
by the French fleet and air force,
but it appeared unlikely that the
Laval government at Vichy would
take any war initiative at present.

car conceded with series of i'm
portant developments on world
fronts:

of Stuttgart and other targets and
hints by government members

possibly with American aid.
RUSSIA-Red army captures Ger

marooned by spring floods along

ing out more than 5000 Germans.

WASHINGTON, May Z.
(UP)-A U. S. Army pilot
who was killed while carry
ing out his. fifth, air raid in
nine days against the Japa-
nese in the Philippines today was
awarded posthumously both the dis
tinguished Flying Cross and the
distinguished Service Cross.
He was Maj. Stanley K. Robin

awards to Is air officers and an
enlisted man, said Maj. Robinson
successfully carried out his last
bombing mission before being shot
down by a powerful squadron OF
Japanese fighters. Only two days
before he had bombed a japanese
transport concentration.
The stories of the decorated men
were ones of supreme courage in
the face of impossible odds.
A recipient of the distinguished
Service Cross was Capt. Hewitt t.
Wheless, of Menard, Texas, whose
exploit of landing a crippled flying
fortress after his crew had been
wounded in fighting off 10 japanese
pursuit planes was recounted by
President Roosevelt in his most re-
cent radio address.
Another posthumous award went
to Major David R. Gibbs, Albuquer-
que, N. NJ, who directed the ground
crews at Clark field in the Philip
pines during the first Japanese RAID
on Luzon island. He rarely had an
opportunity to take cover from the
terrific attack, the citation said. He
has been missing on a flight OF
extreme military Importance since
Dec. IL, 1941. He also received the
distinguished service cross.
Capt. Walter R. Ford, Alameda,
Calf, received the distinguished
Flying Cross for participating in
an attack on enemy warships and
transports in Davao gulf although
he was suffering from a severe
malarial fever. Capt. Ford, COM
mander of flying fortress, insisted
on making the attack because OF
shortage of pilots. When he returned
from the 1900 mile trip he was in
a state of near collapse and had to
be hospitalized.
