ponents are induleng their hobby at the expense of delaying legislation which most of them admit is essential to our success in this The irrelevant rider on a good bill is one of the worst of para- mentary tricks.
 The drys would be within their rights if they let their proposal stand on its own legs separ- ate measure Congress could then decide, on the merits, whether it would be wise and practicable to stop the sale of all alcoholic beverages including wines and beer, military reservations and in neighboring communities. Secretary Stimson points out that this would impose upon the Army the duty of enforcing prohibition in metropolitan areas such as New York, Chicago Los Angeles and San Fran cisco" No one who lived through the speakeasy era can doubt what would happen The Lee amend ment referred to committee by the Senate, would not prevent the sale of liquor. It would merely re- quire the sale of bad liquor by gangsters, without regulation and without payment of taxes.
 The drys should read Secretary Stimsons state ment of the work Army chapains and the recreation al services are now doing. Our soldiers are not drunkards, actually potentially They are the same young men they before they put on uni form, better educated than any other army in hs- tory, and as a whole perfectly of the serious nature of the work they have to do They are being taught, as no army has been taught before, that best of staying alive No professional dry, and no member of Congress, voting against his own convictions under political pressure, do anything by law to make that teaching stick He can just repeat the miserable old of encouraging con- tempt for all law. Once is enough for that mistake the proposal to make it again is scandalous

once again, almost official silence prevails about the activities of troops in the Aeutians After splurge of dispatches telling of the movement of our troops out into the Aleutians, daily bombing raids over Kiska other actvities-silence for many weeks
 The picture in the South Pacific is bright. New gains reported in New Guinea. The enemy has been repulsed on Gadalcanal, if tired Marines have had to hold the ground for than three months with sufficient relief troops lacking.
 But what about Kiska?
 We may well be pursuing a glorious campaign in North Africa. But the Japs not idle because of that
 Presumably the little yellow men still eat their rice Kiska Island and for all we know they will still be squatting there eating their rice long after the Axis has been swept from Africa
 Japan is training 100000 native Korean troops, using Manchukuan troops to police the Philippines and Malaya, developing armies in former Dutch and British colonies The oil wells of the East Indies and Burma gushing for the Japs
 The footing and establishing of Japan's newly Pacific bases progresses.
 Silence on Kiska would indicate that the daily bombing raids have not been continued. Imagna- ton silence could indicate many things
 Our danger has been gobal since December T. That is still the case Don't allow the successes in the African campaign to create any optimism about the Pacific.
