As always in time Of national
crisis, the country is waking up to q
realization of its 'oneness". The same
people who when asked what they were
a few months ago proudly said: Il am
a New Yorker. a Californian, Ken
tuckian" Now with one voice pro-
claim, Il am an American
But-what is an American? If it
were dependent upon birthplace alone.
America would collapse as an over
heavy structure. If it were d mere
matter Of nationality, America woIId
soon be one with Tyre and Sidon.
Were it conditioned upon race, Amer
lea would fall as did the Mongol En-
pire and all other countries founded
upon recism.
Anyone-no matter OF what race
nationality or coIor-can be an Amer
lean. Accident of bith does not make
an American And an American-by-
choice (wrongly called foreign bornJ
is ofentimes a better citizen than the
native born or American by birth whc
Frequently more conscious of the i'm
portancc and value of that citizen
ship.
To be an American is not just .
matter Of declaratcn-it is a chal
lenge to act. Like almost all thing,

y Garrett CountaIn Urges The Buy
ing of War Bonds BY Garrett
CountianS Even If They Have to
Practice Economy and Deny
themselves OF Wanted LuXuries.
To the Editor of The Republican.
There is apparently considerable
open and muffled speculation cur
rently found among certain groups re-
garding the probabNe postwar value
Of the defense bonds we're now being
urged to buy. That | believe, rests
almost entirely with the public. If we
lose the war, it's certain that the
bonds will be worthless; if we win
and we will if Americans cooperate
the bonds should be redeemable Just
as the Liberty Bonds were redeemable
after the first World War.
This all-important business of bond
buying to meet the $14200 May quota
for Garrett county gives us all a
chance to (a) practice a bit of self
denial and invest every dollar in war
bonds and stamps, or Cb) turn our
back on our country's need and con-
tribute our share toward losing the
war though sclfishness and lack OF
confidence in the strength of the
United States Of America.
Surely, if out men in the service
willingly give their Iifc's blood for
America, we back home can squeeze
out few dollars for bonds and stamps
without worrying abou the nation 90

ST. LOUIS. July 1s.-The l0-game
winning streak of Lefty Larry
French came to an end today as the
Brooklyn Dodgers divided double
header with the St. Louis Cardinals,
retaining their eight-game margin
over the Redbirds at the head of
the National League pennant pa
rade.
The Cardinals stormed from be-
hind to win the first game, IA, and
hand French his first defeat since
he joined the Dodger pitching staff
late in the l941 season, but Brooklyn
salvaged the nightcap, 4-3, with the
help of some fancy relief hurting
by Curt Davis.
Max Macon, whom the Dodgers
bought recently from their Montreal
farm, made his first start in the sec
ond game against another left
handler, Max Lanier, but neither was
around at the finish.
Hitting, Running Tires Macon.
Macon hurled shutout ball for six
innings and held the Cardinals hit
less through the first four. He also
banked two singles and triple, the
last of which drove in the final
Dodger tally in the top half of the
seventh and contributed indirectly
to his retirement,
Although he was credited with the
triumph, Macon was so tired from
base running that he weakened rap
idly in the last OF the seventh and
the Cardinals chased over three runs
Cooper tripled and George Kirowski
on three straight extra-base blows.
Coaker Triplett doubled, Walker
smashed home run into the left
f1eld bleachers before Davis rushed
in and held the Cardinals hitless
the rest OF the way.
Dolph Camilli tripled in the sec
ond inning and scored the first
Dodger run on an infeld out. then
walloped his thirteenth homer in the
sixth. Pete Reiser doubled in the
fourth and moved around on an in
filed out and an outfield fly.
White Curbs Dodgers.
Ernie White went all the way for
the Cards in the first game, holding
the Dodgers to nine hits, eight Of
which came in the first five frames,
to notch his fourth win against as
many defeats.
The cards clipped French for IL
of their Is hits and routed him in
the sixth inning when they came
from behind with three runs.
