AN URGENT PLEA for warm

the society.
Gifts of clothing may be
brought to local headquarters in
Grace parish house, or to Mrs.

(R-Further use of rubber in

definitely ruled out today for
the duration.
The War Production Board
said no more rubber would
be available for the thread es-

series. The ruling, announced
late yesterday, reinstated an
earlier no-more-corsets order
which had been modified to
some extent last month.
Corsetieres promised they
would do the best they could
with the materials on hand,
mentioning the possibility of
employing knitted gussets in

nlshed In response to communica-
tions which the President said had
come to him urging a reduction in
Federal expenditures to the amount
expended in the fiscal year 1882" as
a contribution to the war effort.
This shows 1882 expenditures for
the operation of the Government at
$3,139, 100000, while the comparable
total for these older agencies for
1943 is put at s2,225 100000, a net
decrease of $914,00O, 900, or 29.1 per
cent. More than $3.50 100000 of this
reduction reflects cnly declining dis
bursements by Government lending
agencies.
The report covers in detail the
expenditures of the Roosevelt ad-
ministration since 1898, and was pre-
pared, the President said, because of
the volume of letters he has received
dealing with fiscal affairs, some of
which, incidentally, protested recent
cuts in various appropriations.
The President expressed the opin-
ion that the report would be helpful
as guide to future budget policy.
In the sense that 1t suggests how
great the opportunities are for fur
ther economy, in war as we'll as mon
war" expenditures, this is undoubt-
edly correct.

of their life. In the 18th chapter of
st. Johns Gospel. He warned them
that, to maintain their Christian virtues
and to be loyal to His teachings would
require courage, fortitude and an un-
wavering faith. He climaxed his ad-
monitien with these words: These
things I have spoken unto you, that in
Me We might have peace 1t was His
supreme endeavor to arm them with the
strength that He, Himself, possessed,
and of which He was the great exemplar.
Their security and their continuing
peace resided in an obedient following
OF His way of life. He declared that in
Him and in Him alone was the source
and fount of serene and untroubled
mind.
1t is made increasingly clear to us
today that to stand firm in the face of
the worlds confusions calls for some
thing more than purely intellectual gifts
or the assurance that comes from physi-
cal strength. A serene and untroubled
mind, Christ afirms, grows out of the
disciplines which consistent Christian
faith and practice impose. Mere affirm
alton of reverent recognition Of Christ
as the worlds greatest teacher is not
sufficient. His claim is that only as we
repcse our whole confidence and trust
in Him, only as we attempt to shape our
course by His standards, can We enjoy
that inner peace that makes possible an
untroubled mind and way unshadowed

lmperi!ed Stc!inorud


Concern over our endangered ma
rines and soldiers on Guadalcanal
island should not obscure in our
larger vision the new peril which
menaces the heroic city on the Volga.
We do not know whether German
intimations that direct assaults on
Stalingrad would be discontinued
were misleading propaganda or
whether the German high command
has changed it's mind. Certain it is,
however, that infantry and tank
attacks have been renewed with full
scale fury, though on restricted
front.
The point selected is the industrial
area at Stalingrad's northern ex-
tremity. Here is located the great
Dzherzhinski tractor plant, together
with other important factories and a.
workers settlement of apartment
houses, all solidly built of reinforced
concrete and brick construction.
Though badly battered by Axis bonn
bardments, these structures are like
nest of fortresses which have hith-
erto defied all assaults. Now, how
ever, the German Army communique
claims that the tractor plant has
been taken and the Volga reached on
a two-mile front, though it admits
that some isolated factories still hold
out and that the Red Army CON
tinues to fight as if nothing had hap
pened." These German claims are
partially confirmed by Moscow dis
patches which admit a withdrawal
from one of the city's settlements"
which can mean only the industrial
area above described.
. The Axis strategy involved in this
new advance is clear. Possession of
Northern Stalingrad would mean an
Axis bulwark against Timoshenkos
forces driving across the open coun-
try still farther to the northward,
which were recently reported to have
reached a point from which the city
itself could be seen. For the last two
days, however, this relieving opera
ton has made no perceptible prog
ress. That is an equally disquieting
aspect of tense situation. Red
Star, the Soviet Army organ, admits
the gravity of the crisis when it
writes: THE vile enemy aims to
capture the city at any cost. The
decisive battle for Stalingrad is
going on"
The stakes involved in the siege of
this key city on the Volga have been
so frequently and fully analyzed dur
ing the hectic eight weeks which
have now elapsed since the Axis
armies launched their first attacks
that they are obvious to all observers.
The Germans still have a full month
before real winter weather sets in.
because the freeze line" does not
ordinarily reach Stalingrad until
about November 20. The weather is
already chilly, but the Germans pre-
sumably are equipped for cold
weather, since they must winter there
or in the vicinity, no matter how the
siege turns out. The coming weeks
probably will witness what Red Star
aptly terms the decisive" phase of
the long struggle.

Waiting for the News

Tlhere have been other dreary days
IN washington of waiting for the
News. All through June Of SO Wash
ington had been sec him with ru-
l11ors CT impending disaster. There
were "rumor Sundays" when the
lack of any news at all save whispers
had all but set the scene for panic.
ON jury the Battle of Gettysburg
pegan, but that days Star carried
lnconclusiVe dispatches only limiting
OF the imminence of the clash of
armies. BY the next day, Thursday,
1t, was known that the battle was
being fought and all day Friday the
people waited to hear how the tide
weuld run. The lack of definite in
formation multiplied fears of new
catastrophies, and then, on Saturday
morning about 10 O'Clock, a bulletin
was posted outside The Star office:
The President announces to the
country that news from the Army
of the Potomac up to 10 pm. of the
Sd is such as to cover that army with
the highest honor, to promise a great
success to the cause of the Union,
and to claim the coincidence of all for
the many gallant fallen, and that
for this day He whose will, not ours,
should ever be done, be everywhere
remembered and reverenced with
profoundest gratitude. Abraham
Lincoln"
The city went wild with Joy
Crowds marched through the streets
and gathered in rear of the White
House, hoping for a glimpse of the
President. The Marine Band turned
out and played THE Star Spangled
Banner 1t was the most joyful
Fourth of July ever celebrated, But
there were homes in Washington
where the happy tidings failed to end
the tension of silent waiting, where
the news of how the battle turned
only made greater the anxiety of un-
certainty.
And for those of us who are waiting
again for news of a battle because
of the effect it will have on the fight
ing of the war, there should be a
thought today for the thousands of
homes where vacant rooms or empty
chairs bring Guadalcanal. on the
other side of the world, very close
indeed and where word of the success
or failure of fleets and armies merely
makes it longer and harder to bear
the waiting for news that others
cannot share.

Elected to the House of Representa-
tlves as a radical, he shortly aban-
ooned extremist views and joined in
support of conservative reconstruc-
ton legislation. He re-entered the
Army in March, 1867, and his assign

post of duty was at New Orleans,
where he died, January 7, 1869. His

Alaska Anniversary

Seventy five years ago today the
United States took formal possession
of Alaska 1t was on October 18,
1857, that the purchase of the terri
tory from Russia was concluded by
actual occupation of Sitka Island.
The story of the transaction has been
told many times and needs no par
ticular repetition. Suffice 1t to say,
on the authority of the Dictionary OF
American History, that the govern
ment of Car Alexander II had de-
cided to sell the peninsula because
of the financial decline of the Rus
san American Company and Rus
sia's dsinclination to administer
Alaska and inability to defend it,
and in order to avoid future difficult
ties with the United States" Nego-
tiations to similar purpose had been
ATTEMPTED in 1854, 1855 and 1860
without result.
On December %, 1856, however,
proceedings were initiated which led
to a conclusive discussion between
the Russian Minister, Edouard de
Stoeckl and Secretary of State Will
liam H. Seward, March 9, 1867. From
the agreement reached by those
gentlemen a treaty was drawn up for
signing three weeks later. The price
was $1,000 1000. When the arrange
5rIent had been ratified by Congress,
President Andrew Johnson issued
"the usual proclamation" June 20,
1857.
The representative of the United
States designated to receive the pur-
chased territory was Major General
Lowell Harrison Rousseau, a distin-
euished officer now undeservedly
forgotten. He was native OF Ken
tucky. born August 4, 1918. Bitterly
poor in his youth, he had educated
himself for the bar and dabbled IN
politics in Indiana as well as at nome
IN Louisville. At the outbreak OF the
Mexican War he became captain IN
tte Second Indiana Infantry. He
fought at Buena Vista and was COM
nended for his gallantry. Back IN
civilian employment, he established
a considerable reputation as Grim
,.inal lawyer in the courts OF Kentucky
Nv 1861 he was famous for his oppo-
. s;tion to the secession movement.
His efforts were credited with saving
Kentucky for the Union. He Went
into the conflict between the States
as a colonel, but soon was promoted

KEEPING OUR POISE
By the Right Req. JAMES E. FREEMAN D. d. ILL., d. sTD
Bishop OF Washington.

There seems to be little to encourage
men and women today to maintain and
keep their poise. When life is normal
and its flow uninterrupted, little diff
Guilty is experienced in keeping a clear
and dispassionate outlook upon life.
Nothing disturbs the even tenor of our
way, and we think and act in conformity
with the conditions under which We live.
Let these conditions change, let new
and severe test be put upon life, and
few seem capable of pursuing their
course without a confused mind ap-
proximating mental panic. This condi-
ton is accelerated by reason of the fact
that it is general. 1t is like an epidemic
that begins in small areas and speads
to large.
1t is refreshing to meet some one who
has the capacity to rightly evaluate
events and to consider them without
passion and with a view to what must
ultimately come in the way Of an Or
dered and orderly world. The COM
mander of a large military or naval
force, dealing with complex situation,
is compelled to keep his head, even
where disaster seems to be impending
1t would be serious thing for the
men in the services did they lack the
kind of leadership that calmly directs
and controls large bodies in the face of
confusion and disorder.
There is an instance in the latter Pc
riod of Christ's life where He was near
ing His supreme crisis, when He stood
under the lengthening shadow of cross
and spoke to His disciples, warning them
of the inevitable trials and sufferings
that must come to them in the course

more and more official attention. This
question is given even more urgency
by evidence that during 1943 the United
States is going to face rather acute
problem of manpower supply not only in
the services but in industry and agri-
culture. The pinch was felt on farms
this fall. 1t is beginning to be felt in
factories and will be felt with incTeas-
ing severity during the months just
ahead when the war plants that have
been building come into production and
require trained men for their opera
tier.
Suddenly, it is becoming apparent
that this country may not have either
me-, Or materials enough FOR creation
of the largest army in the world, the
largest navy in the world, the largest
air forces in the world and the largest
merchant marine in the world all at one
ard the same time. Even the United
States may be forced to specialize a
little II its strength Is to be brought
fully to bear In the war at an early
time.
