The other is that its essential
duty is TO spread good cheer all
over the land-to convince the
public that everything is being
elegantly managed; that all 1t
needs to do is to stand pat be-
hand the managers and presently
they will report the complete sals-
cess OF perfectly handled jobs.
Davis system does not fill either
OF these two prescriptions.
His thesis is that his stunt Is TO
dish out all the information there
is-good news and bad news alike.
This would be satisfactory to ad-
vocates of glad tidings exclusively

Eve Could Lose War
It's motto was. I'VE could lose
this war"
Our inadequate production OF
fighting material Is our great dan
ger. according to Elmer, and he
holds civiliandom responsible for II.
Naturally. he does. because civil
fans are the individuals who turn
out the goods; our military guys
shoot them off and they cannot
shoot off anything except what
civilians deliver to them.
Now. If civiliandom were called
on TO exert itself only little bit
harder, this diagnosis Of Elmers
might not come to SO much Of
jolt.
This. though, is no little Bit"
Elmer warns US. LAS a nation" he
says, we're not yet ankle-deep in

While the war is raging we will

But what about when Il Is over.

Elmer Davis emissions that era.
Anyway. long ago in the last

The group failed Of purpose

CREDIT DUE CHINESE

CHeOl OOE NFll'1S
For a people who have always
sespised the art of war and placed
the soldier in the lowest social
category. the Chinese have given
a remarkable demonstration OF mill
tary ability Fighting with the
most limited equipment, they have
not only held of the Japanese but,
in many instances. have defeated
them soundly What they might
have done. equipped with all the
tools Of modern warfare. can only
be guessed.
The more credit is due the Chi
nese because they are not tradl-
tionally warrior race They are
highly civilized. cultured. gentle
and loyable people. We know this,
not from hearsay, but from the
positive statements OF those keen
observers. the missionaries who
have spent years OF their lives in
China Invariably. too, they have
been anxious TO return 10 China TO
work again with the men and wom-
en- of a nation capable Of more 10y
atty and friendship than almost
anv other on the face OF the earth
one thing always makes these
missionaries angry and that is
loose talk about the inferior yellow
race The Chinese are not inferior
and never were. They were and
are poor in the tools OF an indus
trial civilization But who shall
saw that that is the worst kind OF
poverty? There is a spiritual emp
tiness coincident with our great IN
dustrial advances which. We be-
lieve. has thrust the world into a
worse state than the harshest ma
terial poverty ever could. IL proof
is needed. look around at our So
called occidental culture.
The Chinese have been rich In
the virtues OF family life, in a
serene affection for simple things,
and in a leisurely mode of living
from day TO day. Because, at bot
tom, these are Christian virtues,
the Chinese have been excellent
subjects for the message of the
Saviour When they become Catho-
lies they become good Catholics.
When they become Protestants,
they become good Protestants.
Even outside of the church. they
have recognized the worth OF the
churchs work as it is seen in the
missions. That is why our mission
aries have considered II privi-
edge rather than a task to work
among them.
After the war the Chinese will
assume their rightful position
among the great nations Of the
world. There will be no more talk
II their infsriority to the white
ace. II is too bad that a mons
rous war was necessary TO demon
trate the worth Of the men and
women Of China TO the best OF any
itizens Of any land. But II II
ives them their rightful title o.
lobility. so long denied them by
he blind egotism Of the peoples OF
he Occident. the frightful price
nav not have been paid in vain.
