100000 MEN ARE

WASHINGTON. - Senator
Tydings D., Md, a veteran of the
last war, predicted this week that
the United States must have more
than 100000 men in the army
and navy before it can hope for
victory.
Barring unforeseen events, we
must prepare for a war of at least
two years, and maybe much long
er." the Maryland senator said "a
war that will cost hundreds Of
billions of dollars, that will trans
form our economy completely
from peace to war-a hard war of
tears, toll, blood and sweat, and
heroic sacrifice"
The senator, who rose from pri-
vate to lieutenant colonel during
the World War, expressed belief
that ''before the end of this year.
American troops will be engaged
in all six continents of the earth"

basis for deferment.

Though war clouds, dark and

Are lowering DER our land,
And rumors most disheartening
Are heard on every hand;
Our normal way of living
Disrupted overnight,
Our nation bravely striving,
Preparing for the fight.
A lesson we are learning,
a lesion that will last;
And though our hearts are yearn-

Our dallying is past.
Though we're a peaceful nation
We have a job to do;
In righteous indignation
Well surely see it through.
And though we meet reverses
Well bear them with a grin

Can "take it on the chin!"
