The Task Thot Is Ahead
Ie London Sunday Dispatch.

From the London Sunday Dispatch.
Events are posed for an Allied in
vasion OF Europe. The question has
been for months not whether we will
invade, but where-and when. .. To
most people here the inevitability of our
invasion OF Europe has taken such
positive shape that there is a danger OF
our progressing mentally faster than our
feet can carry us. There is no precedent
in history for the military operation
to which destiny has committed us.
Masses of Europes inhabitants are watt
ing for deliverance, but meantime they
must work against us. And the armor-
plated coastlines are manned by a reso-
Lutte and desperate foe 1t is no weaken
ing of our determination to invade if
we assess coolly, as our leaders have
already had to do, the full measure of
our task. Only by doing SO shall we
prepare ourselves to match the oc-
casion by the effort; to give all our
nerve and sinew to the enterprise in
which we all have a part, and to sus-
tain ourselves through a period which
must inevitably bring reverses as well
- Successes.

Cooperation There Too
,m the London Daily Herald.

From the London Daily Herald.
"The government is prepared to work
with other like minded governments to
establish the conditions under which,
after the war-"the shipping OF the
world can be carried on" I'VE shall
need arrangements for the joint control
and use of the shipping Of the world Of
very close kind. Collaboration among
the United Nations must be comparable
to that which We have in the war days"
That announcement, on behalf of the
government, was made by Philip
Noel-Baker in the House of Commons re-
Gently. 1t is an announcement of the
first Importance. Already the govern
ment has declared itself eager to carry
out fully the policy recommended by the
Hot Springs conference for international
cooperation in the production and dis
tribution of foodstuffs No such policy
could succeed unless there were Coop
Grafton also in transport. The govern
ment's attitude to the future of shipping
encourages us to believe that its ap-
proach to the problem of international
economic cooperation will be realistic
and Thorough.

as a monument or as a place Of
religious ceremonials was common
everywhere ages and ages ago. Sill

Pyramids of Gizeh. "A like observa-
ton may be registered with regard
to the mounds of West Virginia and
Ohio, the tumuli of Russia and
Poland, the manufactured "mesas"

them come the lake dwellings of
Switzerland, the cave dwellings of
Spain and Southern France, the cliff
houses of Colorado, the idols Of Easter

OF Avebury and Stonehenge, the
ruins OF once mighty Troy.
Who knows? Possibly in another
thousand years Macaulay's pilgrim
from New Zealand may find no vast
metropolis of Senor Ruz Lhuillier's
day in any better repair than Etzna.
That is part of the tremendous
mystery of civilization. 1t always is
getting smashed and being put to-
gether again, dying and living.

Aegean Stute'

A new nation of a sort may rise
in the Eastern Mediterranean as one
result Of Italy's defeat in the Second
World War. The beginning of such
development occurred 81 years ago,
when, an "insular assembly" at
Patmos proclaimed the establishment
Of "the autonomous State Of the
Aegean" For an understanding of
its significance it is necessary to
examine record which dates back
to remote antiquity.
But first glance at the map should
be helpful. Just west of the lofty
coast of Asia and somewhat farther
northeast Of Crete, it will be noticed,
there lies group of thirteen islands
marked with the name Southern
sporades." The archipelago, however,
Is better known as the Dodecanese
from the Greek word for twelve"
though In point OF fact they number
q bakers, not an ordinary, dozen.

Invasion Costs Money

1t is Singularly appropriate that
the sponsors of the Third War Loan
drive should have selected as the
keynote of their selling campaign the
obvious truth that invasions cost
money. For while it was a coinci-
dence that the invasion of Italy was
Just getting into stride when the
bond campaign began. this circum-
stance gives us an exceptional oppor-
tunity to understand what invasions
really do cost, not only in terms of
money, but in terms of human lives
and human suffering as well.
The fight for Italy, which many
thought was over when the Bado-
Clio government capitulated, is ac-
tually Just getting under way. 1t
will bring our troops into contact
with the Germans on large scale
for the first time, and it will be a
hard and bitter struggle. AS these
American soldiers fight their way
forward against a determined and
powerful enemy they will need all
the support from home that they
can get, both material and moral.
The results of the Third War Loan
drive probably will not have any
effect on the material aspects of the
invasion of Italy, although they will
have an important material bearing
Oo &c fN
But the moral consequences of this
domestic financing effort will be very
important indeed.
BY the end of September the
Treasury expects to raise 15,000,000,-
600 from nonbanking sources. That
is lot of money, and If it is to be
raised every American will have to
60 beyond the point of what he can
comfortably spare in bond pur-
chases. Yet there can be no con-
sideration of failure. Every Ameri-
can in this country, as he considers
what he can really buy as distin-
guished from what he can buy easily,
should bear in mind the moral effect
on the Americans in Italy. and at
other battle stations around the
world, If the end of the month
should bring the sorry disclosure
that those of us at home have not
seen this thing through.
One could emphasize the selfish
interest that all of us have in meet
ing the cost of this war as far as
possible through noninflationary
financing. But it is probably more
appropriate to think of bond buying
as part of our obligation to the men
at the front, just as we think of
death and suffering as part of their
obligation to us. The men at the
front will not default on their obli-
cation, and no good American at
home will default on his.

Pyrumid at Etznu

Paradoxically, the more that men
know Of prehistoric America, the less
they know. Most explorers Of the
Columbian period expected so much
that they were surprised at the little
they found. Modern archeologists,
on the other hand. are accustomed
to anticipating relatively small re-
turns for their labors and conse-
quently on occasion are amazed at
the wealth of their discoveries. And
1t is what is found, not only what
is not, that makes the mystery
For example, the Associated Press
recently announced the "reconstruc-
ton" OF five-story pyramid be-
lieved to have been built by the Maya
Indians a thousand years ago. Part
of an ancient city called Etzna, it
was revealed when jungle in the
State of Campeche was cleared for
the planting of castor beans for
expectation.
Alberto Ruz Lhuillier, skilled in
vestigator of remote antiquity, re-
ports that the town originally en-
braced an area roughly a mile square.
The pyramid, he explains. has
rooms and corridors with windows
on each floor, and towering place
of worship on top" The stairways
are decorated with eighty hero
glyphics, not yet deciphered. Within
the structure large sculptured tiger
head was excavated in association
with ceramic fragments, copper i'm
plements, jade beads and other arti-
facts. Nearby well-preserved ball
court was located. The latter bears
an inscription corresponding with
the year 672 AID.
Some of the figures unearthed at
Etzna resemble those discovered at
Chichen TIA in Yucatan. They also
just as reasonably may be compared
with similar works found in Peru.
1t happens, likewise, that they have
kinship with relics of classic China
Egypt, Crete and Downland Britain.
While 1t is not alleged that the same
people created these examples Of
primitive artistry, 1t is claimed with
ample logic that they constitute a
single cultural movement. Ideas
Travelled in the distant past perhaps
more than their sponsors did.
The conception Of an artificial hill
Evening star., 1943-09-12

is something Of a mystery-and a
scandal. For uncounted ages they
were Hellenic territory. Rhodes, the
largest, was the site of the celebrated
Colossus, the statue of the sun god a
hundred feet high which is included
among the seven wonders of the
ancient world. 1t was the home of
the valiant Knights of Saint John
In medieval times. Each of the
neighboring isles is famous for an
event or a personality of universal
and enduring Importance. All are
rich In the fruits of the earth, yield
ing abundant harvests of cereals.
grapes, olives, melons, oranges. figs
and, as the National Geographic
Society News Bulletin says, varied
market produce"
The Italian irredentist agitators Of
four or five decades ago wanted the
Dodecanese as phase OF their dream
for the restoration of the empire of
the Caesars. No moral claim to them
could be advanced nor was any very
seriously attempted. Only on the
doubtful merit of expediency was the
aspiration justified. Yet it succeeded
for while. The islands were secretly
promised to Italy in the Treaty of
London in 1915; they were formally
assigned" to Italy in the Treaty of
sevres in 1928, and they were "recog-
nized" as belonging to Italy in the
second Treaty of Lausanne, also in
1928.
But the inhabitants of the islands
were and still are predominantly
Greek. Generation after generation
lived under Turkish rule from 1852
until 1912 when the Battle of Psinthos
terminated Ottoman control. The
Italians, General Ameglio and Ad.
miral Presbitero, on the eve of the
contest, had promised the natives
that autonomy" would follow. It
was in anticipation of freedom that
the Aegean state" was announced.
Now at last 1t may become complete
reality,

and work and leave God out Of account
any more than we can ignore the law
of gravitation, the law Of growth or the
economic law Of supply and demand.
1t is necessary that we shall recognize
these fundamental laws of God in every
department Of life If we would have Sc
curity. There is in the Scriptures posi-
tive assurance Of security provided
certain commands are complied with.
God has said, 1T a people shall humble
themselves and pray and seek my face
and turn from their wicked ways, then
will hear from Heaven and forgive
their sin and heal their land" If we
continue to try to 60 along without the
guidance of God and make all sorts OF
plans-individual, national economic,
industrial, social and moral, leaving God
out OF account, we have no guarantee
of safety.
Due to the widespread condition of
crime, it is imperative that we insist
more and more upon obedience to the
laws Of God. One of the many causes
OF this tragic situation is the greed and
selflshness Of men and utter unconcern
for the moral law. We are not going
to improve this condition by any sort
of a program Of social betterment that
leaves the commands Of God out Of
account.
There is also the assurance that the
land will be healed. The healing power
OF God extends to all the relations Of
life and it will mean that into the heart
of the nation will come peace Of mind
and spirit that is sadly needed in this
noisy and restless age.
Security comprises not only armed de-
fense but also moral and spiritual de-
fense. We need the healing power Of
religion, we need humility. we need to
pray, and we need to make Righteousness
primary object of life.

New Job for Lundis

The White House announcement
OF the resignation of James M. Lam
dis as director of the once of
Civilian Defense and his appoint
ment as the American Director Of
Economic Operations in the Middle
East does not come as a surprise, as
there have been rumors for the past
two or three weeks that move of
the sort was in prospect.
President Roosevelt's letter asking
Mr.. Lands to take on the new duties
does not specify exactly what these
are to be, but presumably he will
function in connection with the
once OF Foreign Economic Co.
ordination recently set up in the
State Department under Assistant
Secretary Dean Acheson to cor
relate the activities Of such agencies
as Lease-Lend Administration. Office
Of Economic Warfare and ONCE Of
Foreign Relief and Rehabilitation.
In addition. he will serve as the
principal American representative
at the Middle East Supply Center,
which handles civilian supplies. He
will have the personal rank OF
Minister.
Mr.. Lands. a New Deal stalwart,
who Is on leave as dean of Harvard
Law School, is quitting the OCD
after little more than a year and
half's service there. He took over
from Mayor La Guardia after the
agency had come under attack in
Congress for sponsoring a program
that included dancing and other rec
reational activities. As director, Mr..
Lands worked earnestly to train and
equip an adequate civilian protec-
tive force. and at the same time he
sought to encourage public partici-
patton in other civilian war services.
Over his objection, the last session of
Congress eliminated most of these
nonprotective functions In accept
ing Mr.. Lands resignation, Presi-
dent Roosevelt said that you have
done fine job under great
difficulties"
Mr.. Lands previously had served
as a member and chairman of the
Securities and Exchange Commits
sion and on the Federal Trade Com
mission, and his administrative ex-
perience should be valuable in the

THE WAY OF SECURITY
By the Req. James II. Taylor, DID,,
Pastor Emeritus of the Central Presbyterian Church.

One thing that concerns us very
greatly today is the question Of security.
Security in the material world or in the
spiritual experience of men is after all
the same object of our common desires.
The sense of uncertainty has pervaded
our life to such an extent that fear has
taken possession of our minds and
hearts. This uncertainty is evident not
only in our economic and industrial life
but also in our spiritual experience. To
have any real and abiding sense of secur-
ity we need to turn to the Scriptures.
There are certain conditions Of security
which we need to recognize.
First of all, there is the need for ma
tional humility. One Of the misfortunes
of our lives is that we are inclined to
pride, forgetting the proverb that pride
goeth before destruction" We have
boasted SO long of our national wealth
that we are at serious disadvantage
in regard to our international relations.
To be humble Is rare virtue and a
great attainment. A nation that is
humble before God has the assurance
Va oCSulty-
Again, there is the need to pray. Here
is recognition of the fact that God is
the God of nations as well as individuals.
To pray is to acknowledge that God is
supreme in the affairs of men. Prayer
Is not only real power in the life of
the individual but also In the life of
a nation. A nation has soul and 1t is
possible for that nation to lose its soul.
1t is imperative that better moral and
spiritual atmosphere be created in our
country and the way to accomplish ibis
end is through prayer.
Then, too, there is need for us as a
nation to turn to God for counsel and
guidance. Too often we have left God
out OF account in our individual and
national life. We cannot continue to plan

Psychokinesis

For years Duke University has
been conducting researches in para
psychology jawbreaker including
telepathy and other phenomena of
thought transference at a distance,
without words or signals, and which
has been followed with much interest
by the Scotch. who are intrigued at
the idea of eventually being able to
send kilograms without charge Now
Duke comes up with new branch
of parapsychology, called psyche
kinesis, or actual control of mind
over matter The matter" is a pair
of dice, and the mind" a wish to
have them roll right. BY concentrat-
ing on a certain point, the expert
menters find that it comes up quite
bit oftener than called for by the
law Of averages, and conclude that
"the mind can exert a direct influ-
ence over physical system"
This is no news to millions of lay
scientists now in the armed forces,
much OF vnoSe leisure time Is en-
gagged in serious research as bone
specialists and whose laboratory is
a blanket. When they need tough
point, like a ten or four, they in
stinctively realize the value of psy-
chokinesis, though not under that
name, and automatically co-ordi-
nate mind, hand and tongue in fer
vent prayers for Big Dick or Little
Joe, as the case may be. Unlike the
experiments at Duke. results vary.
Some show no trace Of psychokinesis,
and are broke for month: others
are so psychokinetic that the ground
rules have to be changed and the
little cubes required to bounce off
wall before telling their final story.

CopitoI SideIiehts
By viii P. Kennedy.

When the news Of Italy's unconditional
surrender was flashed to the Capitol
press galleries it was received by Anthony
P. Demma, assistant superintendent, who
forthwith had an exultant celebration.
He had just received this letter from
Raymond Clapper, columnist for the
Scripps-H Howard Newspaper Alliance:
Dear Tony:
when was In Sicily, driving through
the town of Termini, we went down q
street which, according to the sign, was
Via Antonio Demma. made mental
note then that would tell you about
it, so you could 60 over and claim your
rights. The street must be named for
some notable ancestor Of yours or else
after the best superintendent Of mails
the United Press ever had" '~@ ~
It so happens that Tony's father,
Francis Demma, came from that town,
and now Tony is planning to look the
place over after the war. In the mean
time he has been buying bonds and
helping to buy ambulances and bombers
to speed the victory. He was born and
grew up under the shadow of the Capt.
tol, and is about as good an American
as can be found. He started working 80
years ago as newspaper messenger, was
the best Of his day. and has steadily pro-
gressed by industry and courtesy; known
personally by the last five Presidents,
who called him by his first name, and
by the leading Government officials. IF
Tony tells you, it's so" has long been
a press gallery axiom.
Representative Charles A. Plumley of
Vermont has been doing more than
building political fences" this summer.
He has had as his guest Wendell Winkie,
titular head of the Republican party.
They were business associates a quarter
of century ago in the legal division
OF the Firestone Tire 6s Rubber Co. at
Akron, Ohio. Mr.. Plunley was parliament
tartan at the 1910 national convention
that nominated Mr.. Willkie in Philadel-
phia, and two years ago had him as his
guest at the Vermont sesquicentennial
celebration. Mr.. Plumley's son Fletcher
is Secretary of State for Civil and Mill
tary Affairs, and together, father and
son, they showed Mr.. Willkie the works"
on how that State is doing its utmost
toward winning the war.
When they went to call on the Cover
nor at the State House Mr.. Willkie took
lively interest in a session of officials
of the State Department of Agriculture
and the State Once of Price Administra-
tion with representatives of the
creameries on the butter situation. He
complimented Gov. William H. Wills on
being mot only an able administrator,
but also with sound views on national
and international affairs" In the re-
ception hall, Mr.. Willkie took special
interest in an English hand-carved oak
clock made in 1920, purchased in Chester,
England, by the late Gov. Percival w.
Clement, and enjoyed its chimes. He
also admired large painting of the
lst Vermont Brigade in the Battle of
Cedar Creek October 10, 1864. They also
visited the Offices formerly occupied by
Mr.. Plunley as Speaker and clerk of the
Legislature. Mr.. Willkie continued on to
visit President Ernest M. Hopkins of
Dartmouth College and to be a guest
at the summer home of Sinclair Weeks,
Massachusetts Republican leader.
