Americas home-front army.
Every schoolboy and girl is being
called on to join the Junior Salvage
Corps. Their job is to visit every
home, umearth every piece of scrap.
Our war industries desperately need
all kinds of metal, rags, rubber. Halt
of the metal in munitions, for exam
pie, comes from scrap. America's
children will see to it that our fac
tories and fighting men get the mate
rails and weapons they need.
Idea for the Junior Army came
from the kids themselves - from

other young volunteers who had pre-
viously conducted local scrap drives.
Federal officials combined the best

anything from privates to first

Corps members will scout out scrap
in homes and farms, sell it to collectors

since boyhood. He knows warships

During the World War, he wrote

LEST WE FORGET

On July 8, 1940, Republican Sen
ator Robert A. Taft, of Ohio. said:
THE idea that we can help democ-
racy by going to war seems to me
fantastic. 1t would be more likely
to destroy American democracy
than to destroy relationships in
the tOtalitarian countries. I see no
reason why We cannot remain a
democratic nation even if the total
itarian ideas prevail in other parts
of the world"
On July 9, 1910, Republican Sen
atOr Gerald P. Nye of North Da-
kota said: Little as we may like
some portions Of this earth and
some peoples and some leaderships,
we are going to have to get along
with them. whether we like it or
not. The utter extinction Of lib
erty from the face of this earth
may result if we do not stay home
and mind our own business"
On July 25. 1910, Republican
Senator Arthur VAdenberg of
Michigan, said: ''The whole effort
is to rush to consciption. So far
as I am concerned, I will not be
rushed into conscription in peace
time in America unless it is the
last recourse instead Of the first"

PEOPLE READY FOR
SACRIFICES NELSON

The American people, says Don
aid M. Nelson, want just one
thing in this war victory -
and whatever it costs, they will
pay without complaint.
Speakin gat a recent patriotic
rally before more than 100000 per-
sons in Soldiers Field. Chicago,
Mr.. Nelson applauded the spirit of
the American people for their de-
termination to put winning the
war ahead Of every other consid-
Grafton"
Mr.. Nelson warned that "this
war has not been won" and that
"some very hard months are ahead
of US" This is no time for easy
optimism" he said.
He declared that 1--WE know that
our fighting men are going to win
this war, but let US not forget that
we at home could lose it for them
if we failed to play our parts prop
erly.
eve at home have a big job to
do" he said. This war makes a
demand on every man, woman and
child in the United States. If we
meet that demand in full we are
going to win. II we fail, we can
lose-and losing prove ourselves
unworthy OF our heroic soldiers"
The War Production Board chair
man declared that the Nation to-
day is really beginning to work
at full speed for the first time"
and that as far as production itself
was concerned, "we are over the
hump"
He cautioned, however. that "as
for inconveniences, discomforts
and hardships that you and l will
have to endure, we haven't even
got to the foothills yet.
Well really learn to take it.

The Department of Agriculture

than in any year since 1920, when
cash income amounted to $12,608

Cash income from farm market

pOrate more data on sales Of live

farm income including government
payments amounted to $9,145 mil

Gross farm income in 1941 is
estimated at $13,957 million, or &c
per cent more than in 1910 From
1910 to 1941, most of the increase

The NEXT CONGRESS

This is how the New York Her
aid Tribune, a staunch Republican
newspaper, summarizes the COM
ing Congressional Elections:
&c. The Congressional cam
pagin this year will be one of the
most important in the nations
history.
whether or not the war is over
by 1914, what is done in the next
two years will largely determine
the nations role in the postwar
world. 1t is not enough, therefore,
that Congress shall be all-out for
war. 1t must also have in its mem
bership enough men with broad vi
sion and with knowledge of world
affairs, so that mere partiSanship
and prejudice shall not serve to
hamper national policies looking
toward peace.
"It is necessary to select for
Congress men of either party who
understand Americas new respon-
sibilities and who do not finch
from them.
MANY among those who will
be seeking reelection in both
houses have records of bad judg-
ment, which. in our opinion, affec-
lively disqualify them for office.
GAS a Republican newspaper we
are, of course, particularly con-
cerned about the character and
views of Republican candidates. On
previous occasions we have ex-
pressed the hope that the Republi-
can party would support the Presi-
dent whole-heartedly in every war
measure, while continuing to criti-
cize cOnstructively his errors at
home. The party still has the op-
portunity of making a great con-
tribution to the national unity by
helping to speed up war efforts
through intelligent discussion and
advice based on a sound under
standing of world trends.

Strength Is Needed

If people quit wishing
And did more of working,
With greater ambition
And less then of shirking,
We'd know they'd feel better
They'd have less of woe,
For happiness would follow,
Wherever they'd go.
Just wishing won't help you
Climb up a steep hill,
1t takes Drawn and muscle
And a true strength of will.
Life demands of each one
That his battles must fight
And working will help him
Win out in the right.
