THE POLITICAL DEFENSE
C0TTNCH.

L have told about the political
committee of labor that we started
in Teller County Cripple Creek
District) during those exciting and
gangster controlled times of the
strike of 10000. This was when
the sheriff of the county had been
depOsed with the connivance of the
Governor of the state and the
militia which was under General
Sherman Bell,'' Adjutant General
OF the state, who was i'm addition
TO this a general favOrite of our
President ''Teddy' Roosevelt, under
whom he had served as a sergeant
in his Rough Riders.'' Therefore.
anything Bell did was lake." SO it
can be readily seen that we labor
fellows were in hot spot.
there were many outrages per-
petrated upon the labor people, so we
resolved to protect ourselves, as we
could not look for any defense from
the proper authorities. Many of the
citizens met with us and we organ
lied defense committee.
Among others with us was the
former sheriff of the county and
brother of a United States senator,
Vardaman, I think, of Mississippi.
We met and resolved to protect our
selves. We were to keep our arms
handy, and in any case of emergency,
to be ready to use them. In order to
know who were our friends, we were
to each get a black skull cap and
wear that to designate friend from foe.

seem to be preparing the home front for
bad news.
Smolensk is the keystone of the Ger
man rail system that fans out to the
northern, central and southern fronts in
Russia Its loss would be almost decisive
in the north and central sectors, and
would seriously affect supplies to the
hard-pushed southern front, already suf-
fering from munitions malnutrition.
Russian communiQues are full of opti-
mism. They say the Nazi prisoners so
far captured are in no better shape than
the more than half frozen men taken in
the fighting last winter Vermin- ridden
and bundled in everything from petit
coats to shawls, they are ill-equipped to
meet the Soviet winter armies on their
home grounds.
If the Nazi rail communications are
smashed in the northern offensive, that
900 miles between the Russians and the
German homeland will be shortened al
most overnight A winter army is even
more dependent on its supply lines than
any other force
1t is not beyond possibility that the
reserve forces carefully husbanded by
Russian generals in their summer de-
fensive campaign will be the first to cross
German border.
Certainly the whole Russian northern
offensive is aimed at German soil, as the
point in the whole front where Maitland

The passes lead to the Po Valley,
where lie Turin and Milan, already under

valley, made to order for mechanical
attack.
The Leghorn coast is another soft spot.
Easy routes lead to Florence, from which
attacks can be launched at the Po at
Rome via the Tiber Valley, or at the
east coast to cut Italy in two. Rome is
a sitting duck, with miles of easy beach
at the front door. Further south the
Naples highway runs along a
soft coast line.
Italy's defenses along her Northern
Alpine border face the wrong way. She
expected land attack only from France
or Austria. Her strategy was based on
navy designed to keep invasion fleets
away from the boot
The Italian navy, however elected to
build its ships for speed at the sacrifice
OF armor 1t was a mistake. The
torpedo plane has nullified speed in
ships. The Fascist navy has been
bust so far.
The Italians, with Nazi help. are re-
portedly busy fortifying the obvious soft
spots. Militarymen don't discount the
fact that such improvised defenses can
be tough, but they aren't as tough as
carefully planned, permanent emplace-
ments. That is why they say Italy is
the softest touch in the Axis.

For Gen. Douglas Macarthur the shoe
now is on the other foot, much to his JOY.
In the wars early months the Japs
gradually showed him back until his
troops were pushed all the way off the
island of Luzon. Now he is doing the

region of Papua. One thing the Japs
have he didn't have-a naval force near

Papua is bony finger of mountainous
land which is the easternmost region of
the East Indies. Last July the Japanese

part of the Jap move toward Australia,
whose defense lay in the trust of Mac

Macarthur arrived in Papua, land Of

proposal. They know that from the
strictly practical point of view there
is no gain for this country in the war.
We have no empire outside our own
borders and are aiming at no territorial
conquests, and the only bribe the junkcrs
could offer-Hitler and his gang-is by
no means sufficient.
Americans hate wars and already have
swung from the original idea of defend
ing the interests of the Nation to one Of
putting an end to all wars. There is
nothing in whatever theology the Ger
mans may have that can appeal to the
American people. And the mere thought
that Europe be reconstructed along old
lines, with Germany remaining as pow
erful as in the past, is certain to be re-
jected by the United States, which is
tired Of paying in blood and cash for the
perennial squabbles of Europe.
According to neutral sources in Eu-
rope, the Germans have a second string
on their bow if unconditional surren-
der is the answer to their peace over
lures. This string, which the Nazi gen.
erals consider much more likely to re-
ceive consideration, is an approach to
Moscow. There will be no question of
restoration of Europe on its pre-war
basis. The approach to Russia must be
based entirely on ideology, on the spread
ing of national socialistic doctrines
which are so closely affiliated with those
of the Communists-thro Europe
and, If possible, the rest of the world.
Stain Speech Raises Hopes.
The speech which Premier Joseph
Stain made November appears to have
raised considerably the hopes OF the
German military chiefs regarding the
possibility Of talking business with the
Russians.
In that speech, in which Stain FORE
cast victory for the Allies and urged
the submerging Of theological differences
among the Allies for united war action,
he said:
TT is not our aim to destroy Germany
but the Hitlerite state can and
should be destroyed. Our first task is to
destroy the Hitlerite state and its con-
spirers. - 1t is not our aim to destroy
all military force in Germany because

telligenD person will understand that
this is not only impossible in regard to
Germany as 1t is in regard to Russia,
but 1t is also inadvisable from the point
of the future. But Hitler's army can and
should be destroyed"
