THE EDITOR
In England as in America the people,
led by the labor unions. are demanding a
Western front to surround Hitler and smash
his power. and with that. the Axis. this year
The necessity is so obvious that only
two serious arguments have been advanced
against the peoples demand. First. it was
ships The experts said we haven't ships
enough.
The CIO Scamcm say that isn't SO. We
have plenty Of ships, they declare. They
should know. The seamcn urge that ships
be- taken out Of the banana and bccrbottlc
trade and used for an offensive against
Hitler
The ship argument isn't heard much
around union halls any more. Now tho
argument against the western front is that
it none of labor'S business
Its no business OF yours. Leave it to
the experts. say those vino don't want labor
to back up and reinforce President RooSc-
vet'S pledges Of offensive action.
What experts are they talking about
What wars did those experts ever win"
Why isn't il our business; This is
war for the survival Of our nation rs free
country. Isn't that our business? This is
a war 10 wipe out the system that ensavcs
working people. Isn't that our business
This is war against a political system
based upon murder and oppression Of the
people. In a democracy politics is the poo
pics business That makes il our business.
Hitler knows what kind Of a war this is.
He knows it is war Of politics. That is
why he plays SO much politics in every
country he attacks With politics hc CON
qucrcd France. and he has rewarded the
politicians who helped him.
Hitler will play politics here If he can.
Everything to disrupt and divide:
everything To hold back his enemies from

SKY SPECTACLE
 IS SHOWING AT 10TH CENTURY
Power Dive" His New High in Dramatic
 Air Picture

Gripping the audience with thrills and suspense, Paramount's latest sky spectacle, Power Dive" zoomed on the screen last night at the goth Century Theatre, to a new high in air pictures.
 Blood pounding scenes flavor the absorbing story behind the making of a new type of airplane, geo. detic plastic army trainer. With the huge wave of preparedness sweep ing America, and with aircraft progress in the forefront of public interest, Power Dive" is also time ly and important.
 Ordinarily, grinding away at a five miles minute power dive, the camera loses the most important punch of this Underlying test. As any aviator will testify, it isn't the power dive that makes you go through the mental torture of stay ing alive in a flaming crash--it's the pull out afterwards, that makes your heart miss that spine chilling beat. Whether by luck, pr skill, the cameraman is to be con graduated for catching one of the greatest film heagt-quakes the mo- yegoer has ever experienced.
