Defending Itself

Many will applaud that let
ter, E. F. They, too, resent Eng
lands, Russia's and China's de-
mands and feel that we're fools
to defend them. But America
is not defending the other
United Nations.
America is defending its own
way of life, and that way of life
is far more imperiied than you
realize.
1t is not imperiled because
Hitler, Hirohito and Mussolini
wish to- be world conquerors.
1t is imperiled because all
human beings want to lie down
on the job of civilization. And
Americans are no exceptions.
We like 10 preach and theo-
rize but when il comes TO
downright discipline we let the
other fellow take the rap. We
are quite sure that, since we
are a democracy, we hold all
the aces.
But we are not really a
democracy. We claim its noble
name and we have profited by

Trim Midriff
A Sure SIGN
Of Fitness
BY IDA JEAN KAN

THERE ARE three midriff
tests that double for fitness. Do
you feel firm or flabby without
your girdle? Do you lean against
your backbone or your belt
buckle? And, finally, is your
waistline expanding or holding
is own?
Your mldriff muscles should
be so firm and hard that 1t Is
natural for you to pull up and in
with the lower abdominal wall
and so lean against your back
bone. II that's the case IL fol-
lows that you have a neat and
tidy waist.
But If you can't pass those
tests you are soft.
MidriH Exercises
or course. the trouble might
be partly due TO overeating or
10 the habit Of slumping.
But more likely it is the lack
OF muscle tone and that makes
for an inefficiency functioning
system and lessened energy. To-
day none OF us can afford to be
softies.
Even though you skip all your
other exercises. do lust q few
every day to keep your midriff
muscles in tone. Here is a trio
that gives good workout.
Lie on back on floor. with
knees fiexed and feet on floor
close 10 buttocks.
Very slowly raise your hips
off the floor until your body is
, in a straight line from chest TO
knees-don't let small OF back
curve in. Then. point knees
hard. Hold FOR an instant, then
slowly lower hips 10 floor, press
small Of back flat against floor,
and relax
Repeat the exercise 10 times.
2-Lie on back on floor with
feet elevated on low chair seat
or on stack of soft pillows.
Have knees straight. Raise
hips off floor as in first exercise.
Hold. and while keeping hips in
straight line, flex alternate
knees 10 chest.
Flex right. then left knee. be-
fore returning hips 10 floor.
Press small OF back flat against
floor, hold, relax, and repeat the
exercise. Six times for this one.
Constant Stretch
3-Still on back on floor.
anchor feet under heavy piece of
furniture such as chest OF
drawers. Stretch arms back on
floor over head.
Now. come up 10 sitting posi-
ton. Pull up strongly with
lower abdominal muscles and
lean forward 10 touch finger
tips 10 ankles, then lower trunk
backward. Repeat five times.
There is not much use in ex-
ercising for Is minutes a day.
then slumping for Is hours.
These exercises tone your mid
riff muscles and make il easy
for you 10 maintain constant
stretch between ribs and hips
that amounts 10 steady exercise
and improves posture and figure.

Fall Work
In Victory


WORK IN a Victory Garden
need not cease with the arrival
of fall weather. according TO
George Tonlinson. directory of
Victory Gardens for the Michi-
gan Council Of Defense. In order
that the thousands of Victory
Gardens planted this season
may be kept in condition to pro-
duce more food next growing
season, Tomlinson advises fall
blowing.
1T is best TO remove trash
which might harbor insects or
disease and pillow your garden in
the fall" he points out. This
retards evaporation during dry
autumns and winter when there
is not much snow on the ground.
Fall Flowing
Fall blowing also puts the
land in shape for the develop.
ment of plant food and may bs
the m ans of killing many
worms, grubs and other insects
that winter in the soil. The
land should be plowed deeper in
the fall than in the spring"
If gardens are not plowed in
the fall, the plot should be
seeded with a cover crop, such
as rye mixed with vetch-about
two bushels to the acre-to be
turned under in the spring.

beset with injustice, ignorance.
intolerance, greed and cruelty
as many a nation which we de-
spise. And these despised tyrant
nations have been building and
training while we made merry.
Why We're Fighting
Why are we fighting? That's
why. Not to save England or re-
store France. but to preserve
our own hides.
We have done a lot of lovely
talking and pinned many a
shining medal on ourselves, but
the truth is that we have let
the forces Of evil get the bulge
on us and we'll be lucky IL we
come out of this fracas whole.
Peace is a lovey thing but
you can't achieve it with words.
Peace must be won and main
tanned by force.
Even Christ stopped SER
monizing and laid on with the
whip when He drove the money
changers and parasites from the
temple in Jerusalem.
Also. you can't have peace.
nor should you try to preach it,
until you are willing to live it,
which is one Of the toughest
jobs on earth.
Haven't Lived Peace
And hard as it is to face the
fact. we Americans have not
lived peace.
We have been at war within
ourselves, with our own neigh
bors, our own workers, through
out our history.
We have dreamed of a better
way Of life but when it came
down to brass tacks we weren't
willing to pay the price.
There has been too much of
this malicious sneering at our
allies. sneering which mus [
make Hitler chortle with glee,
for his dearest hope is to set
us against each other. And
every angry outburst which pro-
notes that end is as truly
traitorous as any alien pro-
gram.
Not Dying for Enelsnd
Our men are not dying for
England.
They are offering their lives
in defense of decency, in de-
Tense of those ideals which.
thank God, have persisted in
our hearts, even though we
have abused and betrayed them.
They are fighting to make
America a democracy in reality
rather than a fancy phrase, and
we who wait behind should aid
them with all our love and pride
and self-control.

An intention to keep up party strife
and maintain party division is mani
tested by the insistence of the con-

before, but also after the primary

Government Price
Control Is Needed
By o. b. Jesness,
Chief in Agricultural Economics
University of Minnesota.

Dy W u. JCSuCSS,
Chief in Agricultural Economics
University of Minnesota.
Government price control and ra-
tioning are highly significant steps
for heading off initiation and so de-
serve everybody's cooperation and
support. Since initiation is nothing
more or less than rising prices, one
way to curb severe initiation is to
set ceilings that limit the extent to
which prices are allowed to rise.
Ceilings have already been estab-
lished for many commodities by the
Office of Price Administration.
Along with price control, rationing
of scarce commodities is necessary
to limit civilian use of materials
needed for war and to distribute
scarce commodities, such as sugar,
fairly among consumers.
PrioritieS are a form of rationing
applied to the more strategic war
materials to insure their use for the
most essential purposes.
Although price control and ration
ing are important in protecting the
interests of both the nation and the
individual in times of war, their ap-
plication is far from simple Exper-
fences of other countries illustrate
difficulties of determining proper
prices and enforcing regulations.
Among the essentials of adequate
price control are:
First, it is vital that all important
factors in the price structure, includ-
ing wages, profits, and farm prices
be included directly or individually.
Second, the program must be based
on general welfare, rather than be
warped to suit the desires of special
groups.
Third, the controls must be unified
in capable and effective admins
tration.
Fourth, public understanding and
cooperation are important.
1t is up to every individual, there
fore, who wants to head off the
threat of a major Initiation to do
whatever he can ifi' the handling Of
his own Individual affairs to keep
from pushing prices up, as well as
to give his full support and coopera-
ton to price control measures insti-
tuted by the government. Ways in
which individuals can help are to
cut down their own spending so as
to place less buying pressure on
scarce goods, to resist the temptation
of asking for higher wages, and not
to clamor unreasonably for higher
farm prices, higher profits and the
like.

he promised. Because I think that
it is utterly un-American that any
candidate should submit to autocratic
control of any committee, and that
candidate who does so should be
repudiated by the electorate, cam
not and shall not accept an endorse
ment so conditioned. Furthermore,
I could not consider running on the
same ticket should he by any chance
be nominated with one who had given
me the double cross before I had
even become candidate.
I am deeply appreciative of the
expression of confidence implicit in
the convention endorsement and for
all the efforts made in my behalf.
