POLITICS NOT AS USUAL

At gathering OF leaders OF mo-
jor political party. the cry went up,
win the war, yes, but politics as
usuoI." You could see them tromPIin9
each other in q scramble for the pie
counter, and running like mad to catch
the gravy troin. Of course, some stol-
warts of the other porty also show more
concern over keeping Cousin Katie on
the public payroll than they do about
driving to victory
Politics, yes. but not politics as
usual. This country and all her citizens
must have shirt sleeves rolled up now
for only one job-wnnine the war. Any
interference from any source. clique,
group or special interest cannot be toll
eroted
Some people evidently would roth
er see US lose the war, or at Ieost fight
to q stoIemote, then see the New Deal
in office. Some New Dealers apparently
would rather gum UP the war machine
Than depart from their places Of glory
and big soIories Harsh words, but these
ore harsh times. ~.
There will be primaries this spring
and summer and elections this foil as
usual No one has argued seriously
otherwise Abraham Lincoln ran for his
second term during some bitter days Of
the Civil War. Woodrow Wilson took
his case to the country in the congress
sionoI elections of 1918.
Elections and bitter political wrong-
ling, however, are two different things.
France played politics as usual right up
until Nozi boots eoosestepped under
the Arc de Triomphe. Cabinet minis
tiers, deputies and bureouorots thought
it more vital to onbost political oppo-
nents and thus divide the country fur
thur than to unite the army and the
people to save the republic.
Unfortunately, evidence exists that
some Of our tub-thumping statesmen
would follow the same disastrous route
as did the French. Some Of them seem
decd set on on od-time, knock-down
political fight os if there we're nothing
9reoter at stoke than election Of on
oIdermon from the third word
The people will elect those they
believe will do the most to finish the
job SO we'll storted by Macarthur and
others. The only consideration is which
candidate has done or will do the most
to hasten the day of victory. This is not
q war for or by New Dealers or Old
Deolers. Republicans or Democrats. 1t
is war for and by Americans Of every
race, color, creed and party or no
Porty.
Just os there ore those trying to
promote HitIer's smart maxim divide
and Conquer" by creating racial and
religious troubles, so some may help
him by shouting thot only one party can
win the war. Americans bent on crush
ing the enemy won't listen.

FOR A BETTER CONGRESS


fled with Congress-to put it mildly!
Have YOU felt thot there is too much
politics and poIover on CoPitol Hill?
Have you been impatient with the iso-
otionists, the stond-potism, New Deot-
ism or rubber-stompism Of some Of your
representatives? Have you wished thot
in this greet national emergency Con-
qress showed more Of the courage and
conservation Of the men who ore go
ing to fight? If SO, here is your oPPor-
tunity to do something about Con-
eress.
Americans con in the next few
months remoke Congress. Every MEM
Der Of the House Of Representatives
and one-third Of the Senators must win
public approval in primaries and cleo
tons or drop out If you ore one OF
those Americans who wants Congress
Of bigger coiber, you can stort todoy
to get it. The primaries will be coming
along in the next few weeks. Today
isn't too soon to begin to enlist good
men, big men, who as wortime duty
might be willing to serve-ond who by
wartime submereence Of portsonshiP
might be elected.
Answering the Nations coll to the
production front, hundreds of doIIor-o-
year men have given up pay and posi-
ton to work in Washington. Who will
soy thot the need for unseIfish compe-
tence is any smaller on the Congress
sionoI front? Congress has vital part
to play in the war effort.
1t can control appropriations,
taxes, prices, labor, and farm policies.
If it plays pressure politics, doing the
selfish bidding of every bloc Of special
interests, national unity is weakened
and the drive for victory drogs. If Con-
eress is big enough to see the need Of
the Nation as whole and courageous
enough to put patriotism first. the war
will sooner be won. If Congress under
stands what the war is about there will
be no second attempt at isolation and
the peace can be won.
While the leading isoIotonst Sen
otors are not up for election in 1912,
the direction Of American policy can
be profoundly effected by the Congress
siono elections From New York come
reports that Hamilton Fish, one Of the
extreme soIotionists in the lower
House, will not even be renonninoted
by his own Porty George Holden
Tinkhom Of Boston and others who
thought America could be q hermit

LICENSE IS NOT
FREEDOM

TIE arrest of Robert Noble and his as
sociates on sedition charges will win the
approval of large majority of the pe6-
pie, we believe-and not because of any
hysterical witch-hunting, either
Noble and those associated with him
have committed acts which should be
punishable in peacetime as we'll as war
time. Theirs was not any criticism of
the government nor the way it operates.
Theirs was not a criticism of General
MacArthur and his conduct of operations
under his command Theirs was just
plain villification, without the least eX
cuse in the world.
Mobiles assertion that Macarthur de
serted" his troops in Bataan, for instance,
could not by any stretch of the magma
tion be called anything but a downright
lie. Even Axis propagandists have had
to admit that Macarthur was following
the orders of his commander-in-chief
when he left Bataan, and anyone except
an Axis propaganda sees in the facts
proof that Macarthur would not have
left Bataan under any lesser orders.
Mobiles attacks against the Roosevelt
administration have not been criticisms
aimed at pointing out mistakes which can
be corrected. They have been nothing
else but vile attacks aimed at undermin-
ing public opinion not only in the admin
istration, but in the whole American way
of life.
These people have not exercised free
dom, they have exercised license. 1t was
unfortunate that Attorney General Biddle
could not have realized this fact the first
time they were arrested by Department
of Justice agents. That he released them
once, only to see them arrested again for
a worse offense reflects no credit upon
his own concept of the difference between
freedom and license
1t is no crime against tfe American
people to prefer one way of life to an
other, nor even to state that preference
in conversation. 1t is a crime against
the American people, however, to en-
gage actively in activities intended to
weaken the American way of life, so that
another method may replace it through
violence. To express different views is
freedom, to attempt to force different
views upon the nation is seditlon. To
criminally villify anyone in high office is
license.
These things should not go unpunished,
whether there is war or peace.

CHINA'S FIGHTING FAITH

(WatSonVllle ReglSter)
From a man whose people have known
heartbreak and defeat in war, who have
witnessed the slaughter of innocent civil
ians by the scores of thousands, whose
cities have been decimated by bombingS,
have come words of counsel and insplra-
ton for America.
Dr. Hu Shih, Chinas ambassador to
the United States, in public address the
other day, made mention of one quality
in particular which he believes has en-
abled China to carry on its resistance to
Japan through four and a half years.
That quality is patience plus fighting
faith. China should know. For longer
period than that of World War |, she has
denied the Nipponese hordes the con-
quest they seek, united by will to victory
that knows neither despair nor complaint.
The clamor which demands sensational
victories today, an immediate Knockout
blow against the enemy. and impatient
lv berates war policy, is not the stuff of
which the spirit of victory is made.
In the first ten months of war, as Dr.
Hu Shih points out, China lost all her
major rivers, all her important river and
coastal cities and her centers of COM
merce. There was acute financial and
economic diSorganization added to the
distress of large military and civilian
casualties. But III iler darkest hour, Oc-
tober 1898, China's millions rallied. Peas
ant, merchant, teacher and factory work
er Joined forces in rebuilding new Chi
ma which, with unalterable faith in its
cause. has been holding Japan at bay
these last Sc months, China's vastness in
size and population, the outside help she
received, plus her capacity for hard work.
all played part.
But they would have availed little with
out that patience and fighting faith which
outrdes the momentary tides of disaster
or misfortune. Strengthened by that
priceless resource, China has shown the
world that type of unconquerable spirit
which will one day shatter the axis into
bits.

ExCRBITANT PROFITS

indianapolis News)
Laws limiting profits on Navy aircraft
and shipbuilding contracts to II per cent
and 10 per cent were repealed at the re-
quest of the administration. The excuse
was that they were slowing construction.
But removing the ceiling was not regard
ed as authorizing brazen profiteering
such as the senate and house committees
have reported.
The administration has complete pow
er to regulate the profits of war contrac-
tors. 1t demanded this power to speed
the defense program. But the power
carried with it the responsibility to hold
profits within reason, and it has shirked
this responsibility.

EASTER 1912

There will be no holiday in the ship
yards and the arms factories this Easter.
Many a man at his machinist's bench
will see the Easter sunrise from the scene
of his work Many another, attending
the traditional services of the Easter
season. will think of that man at work,
and of the soldiers on the battlefield, and
realize that they. too, are celebrating
Easter in the way that is most important.
For this Easter the Christian world is
struggling again, as the Christians OF
early Rome struggled, to make sure that
the world may remain place of such
freedom and tolerance as formed the
cornerstone of Jesus teachings.
This Easter, when we celebrate again
the time of the Resurrection, should be
a time of re-dedication to principles
which have lived throughout the ages,
and which must continue to live despite
the warped PHILOSOPHERS of twisted ag-
gressor minds.
Christianity was founded in struggle,
and death. and resurrection and we
would be unworthy its teachings were
we to shirk our duty to make certain that
the blessings OF the resurrection shall
not be lost
