NapOLeOn in Russia

NAPOLEON'S INVASION OF
RUSSIA, 1872, by Eugene Tarle, 1912.
When Napoleon invaded Russia, he
expected new Austerlitz in which he
would defeat and destroy the Russian
armies. The French Emperor was to
realize too late that it was not the
Russian armies, weaker than his own
that he had come to fight, but the
Russian people who, putting all diff
ferences aside, fought with an aban-
doned fury unexampled in history.
Here was a truly national war. fought
chiefly by the peasants, serfs, who re-
sented the presence of the predatory
conqueror on their native soil. They
burned their houses and all their pro-
duce, and repealed the fully armed
invader as often as not with pitch
forks. 1t is they who gave rise to the
"scorched earth" policy, which Stains
armies have used with such effect
against the Nazis. The intrepid
guerillas and women who hade life a
burden for Napoleon's proud Grand
Army and who together with General
winter" destroyed it. The burning
of Smolensk, the bloody battle of Bor-
odino and the conflagration in Moscow
are few of the highlights which are
being reenacted on the battle fronts
of today.

ADVISES READING
DEATH EDUCATION'

The value of youth training in
America through its various agencies
and movements will strike you like a
thunderbolt if you will but take a
few moments to read the item in
Readers Digest for February of this
year entitled Education for Death
A. Mattioh, Hibbing, Area Scout exc
cutive, says. Read this short synopsis
and you will sit straighter in your
chair, he declares.
This summary outlines the methods
of training of youth in Germany
which results in fanatical belief and
the willingness of youth to die for
cause and an idealism, which are
in America known to be untrue, un-
Christian, and barbaric. Youth under
the dictators has been given great
care and training with many psyche
logical methods that can appeal to
youth in order that youth might be
the tool to advance their cause of
world domination through the spirit
of conquest, arrogance, and blind
obedience
In the early stages of our defense
efforts before Pearl Harbor the ma
tional leaders Of scouting were asked
if the government of the United States
take over the scout movement or II
they should help finance the program
in order that the youth of America
might be trained to form bulwark
of strength for the future of America
by methods which the scout movement
has been so successful in the past 80
years of character building and pa
triotic citizenship training.
The leaders of scouting however,
felt that they as private citizens in q
volunteer movement could do more
for America by continuing their work
with renewed emphasis. Scouting,
therefore, developed its Program of
Action" in June, 1941, to increase its
membership and to improve its pro-
gram of youth training under volun-
teer leadership.

Vets Relief Measures
Gather Dust In Senate

The United States does not need tc
defer or repudiate past obligations
because of new and pressing ones,
Commander in Chief Max Singer, Vet
Grams of Foreign Wars of the United
States, told the house committee on
World War veterans legislation re-
Gently, according to the Ely post No
PITT.
"There are ample resources in this
nation to continue to deal generously
and literally with the disabled and
needy defenders of the past without
hampering or obstructing the present
national war efforts" the VFW leader
stated.
cit is becoming apparent to even
the most casual observer that consid-
Grafton of veteran legislation by this
Congress has almost reached stand
still With the exception of few
minor measures of undetermined value,
no legislation benefting veterans of
the past has come out of the 77th
Congress since the enactment of the
veteran preference in the Emergency
Relief Appropriation Act during the
middle of 1941.
"This committee will recall that two
measures of vital importance to
World War veterans and their Deepen
dents came out of this committee and
passed the house of representatives
early in 1871 only to gather dust in
the senate since that time. They are
II. R. 4845, bill to increase the dis
ability pension payable to totally and
permanently non service connected
disabled World War veterans from
$50 to $40 per month and to grant
such pensions to World War veterans
who attain the age of IS years with
in certain income limitations, and H
R. 4, bill to pension the widows
orphans and dependent parents OF
deceased World War veterans"

NO REASON TO
HOARD FLOUR

Black bread will not be war prob
lem in the United States Philip w
Pillsbury, president, Pillsbury Flour
Mills company, predicts.
Instead of the Wheatless Mon
days and dark war bread of World
War with substitute fours-this
time there is plenty of wheat flour
to go around" Mr.. Pillsbury said.
America has an abundance OF
wheat. Canadian elevators are bulg-
ing. A new wheat crop is on the way
The problem is not rationing but
storage and the most effective use of
food values in the wheat.
"Hoarding anything is unpatriotic.
Hoarding wheat flour is unnecessary,
he said. american housewives will
be able to buy peacetime high-quality
wheat flour for the duratiin"

WAsTEPAPER CAMPAIGN.

Thanks to public response to the
governments wastepaper collection
campaign, paper mills throughout the
country are now able to meet all
current orders, the WPB said today
Scores Of types of fiber and paper
board containers for packaging every
thing from canned milk to huge shells
are being made from the wastepaper
that is flowing into the mills from
the homes, offices and stores of the
country.
The remarkable development, the
WPB said, is that the public response
to the drive has prevented shutdown
of numerous paper mills that were on
the verge of closing activities because
of a lack OF wastepaper.

MORE ON vITAMINS.

What are you doing aboSt vitamins?
A survey conducted by the govern
ment shows that few city families are
providing themselves with the proper
rationing of vitamin fooos-those that
furnish protection against disease and
keep the body in top working order.
Just as a reminder, the consumer
division of the OPA, has issued list
of eight basic foods that should be
in everyone's daily diet. They are
milk and milk products: oranges,
grapefruit, tomatoes, raw salad greens,
green or yellow vegetables other vege-
tables and fruits; whol"-grain prod

In an attempt to suppress spreading
guerrilla revolts in Poland, 400 German
Gestapo agents were recently sent out
to mingle with the Polish people, for
the purpose Of locating the headquar-
tiers of the chief leader of the guerrillas,
Arno Ranowicz. Six days after the Nazi
agents set foot in Poland, the clothes
worn by them began arriving in Berlin,
neatly folded in parcels addressed to
Gestapo Chief Heinrich Himmler. In
each parcel was a note from Ranowicz,
politely expressing regrets that the Ger
mans had forced him to take extreme
measures"

NOrwegians Escape

In spite of harsh restrictive measures
imposed by the Germans, many Nor
wegians still make their escape to Brit
ain each week. Most of these, using
small fishing or sail boats, come by twos
or threes, but occasionally real coup
is made when audacious groups seize
a larger vessel and flee together. Not
long ago, ship of some 200 tons disap-
peared from under the Nazis' noses in
Western Norway. 1t arrived in England
a few days later with more than one
hundred Norwegians aboard.

SAVE HOOKS AND EYES.

More and more the use of hooks and
eyes will become apparent in ladies
ready-to-wear clothing as the metal
Nppers drop into the limbo of things
that used to be handy.
Plenty Of hooks and eyes are being
allotted industry, but the amount
available for women who do their
own sewing is limited.
So, says the consumer division of
the OPA, will be smart to cut out
hooks, eyes and snap fasteners from
worn out clothing for use on the next
things you sew.
Zippers have been cut off from
overshoes and other footwear, bags,
pocketbooks, corsets, furniture covers
of all kinds, gloves, lingerie. raincoats,
slips, swim suits, beachwear sports
jackets, toys, luggage and many other
goods. Buttons, snaps, hooks and eyes
were good enough for the folks few
years ago. They should, says the con-
sumner division, be good enough for
a nation at war.
