This II no tine for niggling over matters
OF definition. President Roosevelt says he
does not find the American people CON-
plaeent or apathetic toward our war effort
Let's coneede that by his definitions Of the
adjectives Mr.. Roosevelt is correct. Let's
even accept the definitions.
So what! So the publie's attitude to-
ward the war effort still leaves too much
to be desired A newspaperman after wan
dering through almost half Of the United
States since Pearl Hsrbor, and talking with
folks of just about every sort, has had GER
tain conclusions forced upon him zs 10 the
public's frame Of mind. For whatever they
may be worth, here they are:
Most Of our people are demanding that
this nation shall give and work and suffer
to the limit of the other fellows capacity
for endurance.
On the whole. our people believe that no
sacrifice can be too great TO defeat the axis,
as long as il does not interfere with per-
sonal comfort and pleasure.
We concede that. with the Far East cut
off. there isn't rubber enough for civilian
use after military need has been supplied.
But each feels that he has a peculiar need
which, in his own instance, calls for an
exception. The same is true of most of the
major shortages.
The West Coast has been all upset about
the menace created by huge Japanese popu-
lations living and working close to vital war
plants. 1t demanded that they be removed.
But when Washington sought = new locale
for the enemy aliens, communities and whole
states clamored loudly against having the
little brown men moved in on them.
Labor unions were among the earliest
and loudest in expressing their hatred for
the Hitler-Mussolini brand Of totalitarian-
ism. and in promising their all to help pre-
serve democracy. But when the showdown

tional authority, theological considerations
seem more important than planes.
Capital appreciates that the American
system is doomed unless we defeat the axis.
Yet the unwritten books are filled with
specific instances in which industries have
been and still are delaying about produc-
ton, because they fear their investments
may be rendered obsolete by new processes
and new sources Of supply.
The list could be extended and particu-
larized. and always the story would be the

MENTOR VERY Ill.

SOUTH BEND, Ind, Oct. 10. up
Coach Frank Leahy of Notre Dame
was unable to direct his new T.
formation against Stanford today.
Leahy, who left a sick bed to
lead his team against Georgia Tech
last week, collapsed at his desk yes
terday and was sent to Mayo Broth
ers Clinic at Rochester, Mimi, for
treatment and observation of a cur
rent illness and an old injury.
Until Leahy returns, Ed McKeeVer,
backfield coach, will serve as acting
head coach.
Leahy suffered from influenza last
week and has had a heavy cold all
week. Four years ago, he was in
jured when diving from a high
springboard at a boys camp where
he was counselor. He paid little
attention to the injury until he dis
covered recently that three or four
vertebrae were misplaced.
In addition, Leahy suffers from
a throat condition, the same ailment
that affected him when he was
coaching the all-Star team last fall.

however, Williams got his hands

and streaked 46 yards for a score.
The try for extra point was block

The Wildcats employed a man in

Williams or Quarterback Gene Min

not be bent. Guards Henry Erquia-

In statistics the BraWley players
