LOVE WARS AGAINST HATE

The keynote of Christianity, if there is
a single keynote, is brotherly love. Love
thy neighbor as thyself. Do unto others
as you would that they do unto you. Let
selflessness prevail over selfishness.
Probably all of us cannot reconcile this
fundamental of love in our philosophy,
as against the fundamental hate of war.
Preaching unselfishness, we are battling
selfishly for single selfish victory.
These do not appear consistent on the
surface, but they are consistent, and if
those who are perturbed will continue to
seek the answer, they will find it.
This country stands for improved ways
of life for its people. 1t also stands for
improved ways of life for other people
insofar as our influence might be felt.
Just how these Improved ways" can be
further developed is being and will con-
tinue to be worked out for centuries to
come But that is our theme and our
Objective theme of seeking means of
providing the greatest good for the larg-
est number of people. This symbolizes.
is in fact the adaptation of love to ma
tional purpose
Opposed to us is a governmental code
of domination of the peoples of the world
by few. There is no proposal on the
part of Germany or Japan to give more
freedom. They see the world as their
potential slaves the epitome of ma
tional selfishness.
This war, therefore, just as long as
selfishness does not besmrch our ban
pers and just as long as Christian pur-
poses are our bywords, is holy war,

NEW RESOLUTIONS AND
REVIVED IDEALS

Eastertime, and not New Years Day
is the proper period for making new reso-
lutions and reviving our Christian ideals.
Properly, of course, every Sunday is
day set aside not only for rest but for
the retaking of stock, the re-evaluation of
our merits and demerits, our objectiveS
and failures, our strength and our weak
ness. During the year, however, this con-
scious or unconscious spirituality which
underlays the Christian world, reaches
two high apexeS, Just as the Life upon
which Christianity is founded reached
its highest climaXes upon those occa-
sions, whose anniversaries are celebrated.
The first, of course, was the birthday
of the Man of Nazareth. The second,
fraught with meaning and fullneSs, is
Easter, when we celebrate the fulfill
ment of His promises, the proof and
example that man shall rise again even
after earthly death.
It is a privilege of everyone TO read
into the record of that Man who lived
two thousand years ago, whatever mean
ing he or she sees fit to find there; but
it is highly essential that we give. it
thought and meaning beyond the mere
worldly decoration of holiday and new
spring clothes and material gifts.
Democracy is the INSTRUMENTATION
OF CnrlSJlanlIN. II Is lHe nearest dudpId-
ton of Christian ideals and Christian
purposes to civil government that has
ever been attained. 1t is not perfect, of
course. The road to perfection leads
along a path to be improved or impaired
by the generations which follow it.
AS individuals with this life to live, we
can and should reap the riches available
to us through the Biblical record. And
as a nation warning against barbarism
and un-Christian threat, Christian
world battling for its existence against
a pagan tide which, if victorious, would
set back Christendom a thousand years,
we must draw from this occasion the
deepest and most inspiring stimulus.
This is no time for the frivolous humor
of New Years resolution.
This is time for serious contempla-
ton as a nation and as individuals of the
full meaning of the life of Christ

the Women
Ry RUTH MLLLETT

The war is offering parents of
school age children a wonderful
opportunity for teaching them CO.
operation and responsibility.
They see their parents cooperat-
ing with neighborS aud towns
people in Car-Sharing pools. in war
work, and in home defense duties.
They see them helping each other
out as it gets harder and harder to
hire domestic help
They see them giving up things
Trey want to put the money into
war bonds.
They see them taking respon-
sible interest in government and
world affairs.
That is all to the good. Too
many groWn-up5 have in the past
taken a Let George do it" attitude
toward government, community
projects, and anything else worth
while that called for work and CO.
operation.
Now children are having the right
kind of an example set them by
grOWn-upS. But there is even more
the groWn-upS can do to make the
lessons in cooperation stick. They
can see that the children also are
given jobs to do, and that, when
cooperation is expected of them,
they cooperate.
The children whose parents take
turns driving them to school should
be made to realize the importance
of being ready and waiting when
the car stops for them.
EACH NEEDS A JOB
The children in a family where
the mother is Over-Worked should
be given definite jobs to do and
held responsible for doing them
every day.
If they are old enough TO 20 to
school they are old enough to make
some contribution to the war
effort.
They should be made to see that
eating what is available instead of
always just what they want is one
of the ways in which they can help
TO win the war.
IT is wonderful time to teach
children to assume responsibilities
and to consider the other fellow.
And parents should be making the
most of it.

TUNiS AND BIzERTE

New York TimeS)
With perhaps 100000 Axis troops
herded into the "coffin corner" of Tuni-
sia the last phase of the long battle for
Africa begins. If Marshal Rommel still
commands this army he cannot hope for
victory. He can only win delay while
Hitler completes the defenses of Europe
More than half the territory on which
the Axis might have fought for delay
has been lost in the last disastrous week
Most of the flying fields that blocked the
Allied advance, plus two divisions of sea-
Soned troops, have been captured Mater
tally weakened, the Axis forces now stand
within ring of steel $50 miles long,
swinging across the mountains from Cap
Serrat on the Mediterranean to Enfda-
vile on the Gulf of Hammamet Of the
four great ports of TuniSia only two re-
main to defend-Tuns and Bizerte. The
Germans must hold both or be driven into
the sea.
Tunis is big city of more than 2OO,OOO
inhabitants. 1t will not be easy to hold.
1t lies on a plain with no natural defens-
es except the surrounding mountains.

British Eighth Army has reached the
main AXIS defenSeS on the coastal road,
while AleXander's First Army threatens
N pe'0'No az S0"JCnehe, NieuJeI-ei-DdD

proposition. It is probably the strong
est position on the entire African coast,
and for sixty years France has been max
ing 1t stronger. 1t cannot be flanked
for 1t stands on the tip of rocky penin-
sula guarded by hidden gun emplace-
ments. With its land-Iocked harbor and
connected lake it is built to receive sea-
borne supplies and to stand long siege.
But once it is isolated it will offer shin
ing target for concentrated air attack.
Axis planes from Sardinia and Sicily
cannot protect it.
We may now expect brief lull while
the opposing armies get into position
Then once again Montgomery's incom-
parable fighters will lead the assault
They face no defenses stronger than those
they smashed on the Mareth line.

An easy generalization freuuentl,
made is that President Henry
A. Wallace is an impractical Wis
ionary, bit of a mystic anc
dreamer. From that start. it is a
simple matter to go on and as
sumo that in a Grass, hard headed
material world. Henry should not
be allowed at large
Strictly for your own amaze
ment, however, you might some
time care to check back on the rec
ord of Mr. Wallace's screwy ideas
of the past. just to see how they
turned out.
Take just the idea of the sever
normal granary." Remember how
fantastic that sounded when il
was first presented back in 1893?
When the United states lost the
world markets in which ii used
to sell its surpIuses, the idea of
storing those sIu-pluses against
lean years looked ridiculous. Yet
along came the droughts of 1884
and 1886, and oh how those sur
pluses helped maintain supply
and keep down prices.
Again, in 1897, when the corn
carry-over was only ITO million
bushels and the wheat carry-over
was only 100 million bushels, Wal
lace called attention to the fact
that these SurpluseS should be
doubled.
WELCOME SURPRISES
Good crop years did finally build
up the carry-over stocks to peaks
of 700 million bushels of corn in
1910 and 900 million bushels of
wheat in 1912, and the cry went lsp
that the government was going
to be left holding the bag. Yet
along came the war. and it is these
very surpluses which may provide
salvation as feed crops for increased
livestock demands, if the use of
these surpluses is not hamStrung by
legislative restrictions.
Now it is not to be imagined
that Henry Wallace, the mystic,
gazed into any crystal ball and
fOresaw either the drOughtS Of
1884 and '36. or the wars of 1899
and AZ, with their increased de-

ONLY ONE WAY TO
DEFEAT JAPAN
(Oroville Mercury

(Oroville Mercury
Jimmy Doolttle said lot when he
told a L. P. reporter Saturday that
Japan could be defeated only by attack
ing Japan's industrial heart
when we have the bases in China"
he said, I'VE can carry out attacks
against Japan'S industrial heart, which
is the only way Japan can be defeated.
Even if we retake the whole south
western Pacific, we still have not defeat
ed Japan
Then he said something that few out
side the Army and Navy realize 1t
would take tons of gasoline and bombs
for each Flying Fortress in the air over
Japan. 1t would take GOO tons of sup
plies TO send 100 fortreSses in bombing
expedition against Japan.
Thus, it is the supply problem that
holds us back, and you may rest assured
that it will hold us back for some time
Even if we had bases in China nearer
to Japan we could not bomb Japan from
them for very long-because we cannot
get bombs and gasoline to those bases
in sufficient quantity except by tedious
air transport.
What we need is bases in Siberia, or
the opening of sufficient highway into
China to afford us those supplies Thus
far our attempts to reopen the Burma
road have been weak and futile.
Japan Is far from defeat.

Writes:


The National Industrial Con-
ference Board estimates that alb
senteeism last year cost American
industry the equivalent of 100000
employees working full time. That
! is almost one-third of the man
power shortage the nation is said
/ to face.
/ 1t is exclusive of an even greater
less through industrial accidents.
Il takes no account of non-in-
dustrial accidents, which exceed
those in the plant. 1t does not in
clude time lost on approved leaves
of absence. Neither does it count
time lost through strikes, sitdowns,
sloWdowns, holidays" and "vaca-
tions'-which are euphemisms for
the now unpopular word Strike
or through other effects of labor
disputes
Absentecism-the act of staying
away from work without permission
or prior nOtice-inCreased about 20
per cent last year and shows no
signs of declining, which probably
means that in spite of the urgent
war need for workers, the percent
age is staying just about constant.
A large proportion of these abb
Sences are eXcuSable. Many of
them are inescapable. But also
there are millions of man days lost
for trivial personal reasons. 1t is
not lair to workers to treat abSen-
teeism as though it were entirely
their fault-to lay the blame on
ldZineSS, diSinterest. SelfiShness. Yet
if the conference boards estimate
is correct, and As per cent of such
absences are unnecessary, then the
equivalent of more than 500 900
tull time workers were lost in 1912
because the men and women
weren't interested enough to stay
on the job.
Governmental agencies are aware

are seeking to ascertain the funda-
mental causes.
Some sort of sanctions will have
to be provided, by which workers
who arc not interested enough in
American victory to stay on the lob
can be forced TO do what they
should be happy to do.
But first, it is necessary to study
end, SO far as possible. to eliminate
the causes of justifiable absentee
ism, in order that no major in
justices shall be worked.
This is job in which individual
industries can and must help. but
one which the government must
sponsor, coordinate and assist.

mands for farm products. But
the fact remains that thus far.
the theory of Henry WalIacc's
ever normal eranary has worked,
and all that can be asked Of any
contraptiOn or gadgct or theory
of economics is that il work.
The same thing goes for the
much-cuSSed and discussed Triple
A-the Agricultural Adjustment
Administration program It was
born out of the depths of depres-
sion, a Wallace-sponsored brain
child, 1t was killed by the Supreme
Court in 1896. 1t was revived in the
new AAA act of 1888, taking the
emphasis off production of more
cotton and wheat, putting more en-
phaSiS on soil conservation, planting
of Soil-building crops, contour
ploWing and SO on.
FARM INCOME TRIPLED
Wallace'S farm program was, in
all, responsible for building up ma
tional farm income from around Sd
billion in 1888 to 50 billion in 1910,
but that was only the beginning BY
enabling the farmers to earn more
money, the fertility of their soil
and the condition of their equip
ment and livestock was built up to
a point where agricultural America
could produce the biggest crops on
record raising farm income to near
ly $l2 billion.
Maybe this is just WaIIace's
mystic luck, but if there had been
no farm program agriculture in
America would have gone down
hill and through the '30s, and the
United States would have entered
the war under the most serious
of handicaps.
The Wallace record is not infalli-
BILE. The slaughter of the little
pigs proposed by some of the farm
organizations as part of the corn
hog program, was bad psychologist
cally, though economists can still
be found who defend it. But bal
ancing the books over the past 10
years, Wallace's ideas have been
right far often than they have been
wrong.
