WASHINGTON-Despite the fact
that Americas Pacific fleet has at
tanned numerical superiority over
the Imperial japanese navy, the
United States high command is
not overlooking the possibility that
Nippon still may be able. to mus
ter powerful armada for a heavy
counter blow.
1t must be remembered that ia
pan has not risked any of her

to date and no one knows how
many cruisers and destroyers she

Pearl Harbor attack.
The Jap dreaanaughts sunk or

old ones, like the Kongo class sunk
at Guadalcanal.
Tourist notes: President Roose-
velt's recent series of conferences
with Allied leaders in the Middle
East represents the longest depar-
ture of a chief executive from the
United States since P s id t
Woodrow Wilson journeyed to Ver-
sajlles, France, to help write the
World War l peace.
Censorship hides the exact time
table, but it is obvious that weeks
have elapsed since Roosevelt left
home. During the Casablanca
talks last January, the president
was gone more than 20 days and
the current par.eys-with Chinese
Observation-Disclosures Chang
Kai-shek, Russian Premier Josef
Stain, British Prime Minister Win
ston Churchill ard Turkish Presi-
cent Ismet Inonu-are more time
consuming, both from the stand
point of distances and time spent
in discussions.
1t is interesting to note that
while the president is beyond the
borders of the United States, he
continues to execute his duties as
chief executive.

Condition Red" by Capt. Fred
erick j. Bell, U.S.N. uongmans,
Green; $3).
A lot of action, and a lot of his
tory are to be found in Capt. Fred
erlck J. Bells Condition Red"
It may be lucky book for him,
too, because it's publication and
his promotion from commander to
his new rank were almost coindi-
dental.
Condition Red is also a fine
book, perhaps the best action story
to come out of the Navy in this
war. 1t is difficult box to de-
scribe, and to provide even a cur
sorry synopsis is impossible, o r
there is too mucn in the book that
does not fit easily into somebody
else's sentences.
Captain Bell was in the western
Pacific, specifically in Philippine
waters, when things boiled up with
Japan. He served first on the
Boise, and went through the
heartbreaking period when that
grand ship was kept out of action
by hard luck. But when the Boise
was returned to the west coast for
repairs, Captain Bell was given
command of a destroyer, which
was exactly what he wanted. From
that time until his recent relief
he cruised the Southwest Pacific,
rever out of danger and almost
never free of fatigue. His ship
went months beyond the usual
rerid of service without overhaul,

THOUGHT FOR TODAY

Nobody grows old by merely living
number of years. People grow old only by
deserving their ideals.
Years wrinkle the skin. but to give up
YOUR anthusiasms wrinkles the soul.
You are as young as your faith, as old
as your doubts rs young as your sehconfi-
dence, as old as your fear; rs young as
your hope, as old as your despair.
From "B00k of Days"

I believe this is the only group
in our country that ever receiv-
ed from the Supreme Court not
one, but three, open invitations
to do wrong. The moral issue is
more important than the legal
auctions, and the worst Of it is
that the men who entertain these
thoughts will be sitting in juds-
ment for long time to come.

labor shortages" the union leader as
serted, sis not so much that young
men have been drafted but that wages
are so low. The average farm wage
is less than half of what an unskilled
factory worker can earn. In the
south it is much lower. To solve the
problem of labor shortages on the
land wages must be brought up to
near parity with those paid Industrial
workers.
1--WE see no reason for sending the
army into the fields at this time, for
there are thousands of workers in
the south who could learn in a short
time to do any sort of farm work
Our organization has a program for
enlisting not less than 10000 farm
workers who for the duration of the
war will go anywhere to plant, cult
vate and harvest crops. We have
1000 ready now and there are thous
ands of others who would welcome an
opportunity to go to work on year
round jobs in other areas where there
is a possibility of making a better
living. Likewise, $4,000 to 100000
could be modified in volunteer farm
labor force to meet seasonal labor
needs. The requirements for such
force would be transportation, fair
wages and essential housing for the
workers and their families.

held by the district production credit

ing stock held by farmers and ranch
ers.
Each year since 1886 the combined
member income of all associations has
exceeded the operating expenses and
losses. Member income is all income
of the associations, except interest on
securities purchased with funds OBJ
tanned from the sale of Glass A stock
to the production credit corporations.
In 1912, the total member income was
almost one million dollars in excess of
the combined operating expenses and
losses.
A total of $3,O66,OOO from earnings
of all associations in 1912 was added
to reserves bringing the total accum-
ulated reserves to $25,090,O00 which is
equal to "a per cent of the total CAPT

besides the superintendent. Two
thousand mentally sick patients! The
standard set by the American Psychi
atric Association for hospitals of the
kind is one doctor to one hundred
fifty patients. Warm Springs would
need eight or ten trained psychiatrists
to come anywhere near that standard
doctors who would be employed to di
rect and supervise the treatment OF
these patients. Under such a set-up
more careful examinations could be
given to determine the treatment
NEEDED for each patient, and his re-
Spouse to that treatment followed
closely. This is the ideal picture
one we must strive to realize if we
would do the fair thing by these af-
flicted people. And, while eight more
doctors is number not to be thought
of now, the addition of two or three
is imperative, it seems. With salaries
provided that will bring trained men
or women, and equipment furnished
with which they can accomplish some
results.
Summing briefly this report, the fol
lowing specific things should be kept
in mind:
l. That appropriations should be in
creased rather than decreased for the
current needs of the institution.
2. That buildings and equipment
should be modernized as soon as pos
sible, but not until after the war of
course.
3. That the superintendent should
be, without question, the administra-
tive and executive head and be held
accountable.
4. That the institution is under
stated to the point where proper
care and treatment of the patients
is impossible.
5. That better salaries be provided
for the doctors and others in key
positions, and better wages generally.
6. The psychiatric treatment of the
patients should be stressed and cures
effected wherever possible, to the end
that those. cured may be released.
7. That careful observation over
sufficient period of time be made of
incoming patients to make sure these
actually are insane before they are
committed as such.
s. That a considerable economic
benefit will result, great saving to
the state, from thus wedding out those
patients who have no business at this
institution, and corresponding better
care be allowed of those who must
remain.

We wish to correct this statement
as John Healy, young man who is

of the Butte Miners union voted
right, not only on our measures, but
on all farmer measures as well.

of the house will verify this state

Representative Cannon is one hun
bred per center whom we class as a
labor representative as we have al
ways supported him.
Not only are these men whom we
have named okay, but the fact re-
mains that Senator Mike Mulholland
is recognized as labor representa-
tive because it is known by all his
friends and foes alike that he is one
of the Oldest members of organized
labor in Montana and his record is
100 per cent with organized labor.

The present world conflict has been
well described as the Peoples War. y
Those who conceive of this struggle
as the Peoples War also conceive of
our times as the portal to the Century
of the Common Man.
The present conflict is between the
exploiters of the people and the peo-
pie themselves. Fascism is nothing
more nor less than a corporate ex-
ploitation of the people, backed up by
the full power of the state.
One of the gravest concerns of the
common man today should be the
fact that the lines of demarcation
between those defending Fascism and
those defending democracy and the
rights of the common people are not
always clearly drawn. We of the
United Nations have fascist-minded
men and appeasers among us. These
are the evil forces that both farmers
and industrial workers must fear.
These Fascist-minded appeasers
are not strong enough to prevent
our military victory. Their ultimate
goal is to win the peace. The first
requisite for their success is to keep
the farmers and city workers dsor-
ganized and at loggerheads.
Farmers and industrial workers
must realize that the forces which
will divide them are now working
feverishly so as to be in complete CON
troll when the battle-flags are furled.
For example, here is statement by
Raymond Moley in the Wall Street
Journal of September %, 1912:
"Of late the ancient rift has been
showing itself again. Obviously
farmers were thoroughly sick of the
assumption on the part of labor
leaders that only three interests
were worthy of representation in
the management of the war on the
production side-labor, management
and the government.
Organized labor has constantly de-
manded representation of farm and
labor interests in our federal and
state governments, in war time and
peace time. The Moley lie is typical
of the Lets you and him fight" tech
ntque of those who would divide farm
er and worker.
Moley also writes:
"As long as both the farm group
and the labor group believed that
both could increase their income at
the expense of other sections of the
population, the appearance of a
unity of interest could be main
tanned"
Just what "other sections of the
population" other than farm and la
Dor groups, would there be to profit
"at the expense Of? And how does
Moley expect to engender hatred
among farmers and city workers by
accusing both of them of selfishness?

attack increases by day and night, by
radio and by newspaper, magazine

do not believe every Japanese
is hero. Their politeness Is a form
of cowardice. 1t is throwbsck to
the days when the Samurai war
lords roamed the highways of feudal
Japan and any commoner who failed
to bow his head would have 1t cut
off.
Despite their love of children and
their superficial culture-their art.
their neat homes, cleanliness, imi-
tation of Western living-the Jap
anese are primitive people, with the
strength and weakness of primitive
people. One of their Weaknesses
and this applies to the civilian
populace-is the tendency to panic,
their blind dependence on superior
authority and their confusion when
confronted by calamitous situation
such ss an earthquake or tidal wsve,
or even by some minor upset In their

feeding the Imperial war machine.
Soldiers may have to drive civilians

There is no reason TO believe as
yet, however, that even series of
serious defeats will break down the
morale of Japan's armed forces.
Possibly one crushing blow after
another might produce such an
effect; but from all the evidence in

likely that the Japanese will fight
