trine which the American stu
dents have been swallowing for
years. Why didn't he just let Us
poor working stiffs wallow in
ignorance and accept our fate
without whimpering, like we did
back in the "good old days.?
The vice-president had every
thing to lose and nothing to gain,
from a selfish standpoint, by
airing his feelings toward the
American Fascists. Nevertheless,
he called upon the workers of
our nation to unite in defeating
the forces of greed right here at
home. He admonished those who
place the value of profits above
human rights, and thereby be-
gan what might easily become
the battle of the century.
THE RAPs BEGIN
Already Senator Nye, Repub-
lican, North Dakota, has made
a TRADE against Wallace, accus-
ing him of beating the drums for
Roosevelt. And not to be outdone
by his political colleague, Dem
ocrat" Smith, the senator from
South Carolina, has grabbed
tomahawk and is in rapid pur-
suit of the vice-president's scalp.
There will be others in the
fray-lots Of them But in spite
of the viciousness of the opposi-
ton, we're betting on Henry to
come through with flying colors.
The abuse absorbed by Flea
nor Roosevelt and Harry Hop
kins will be as nothing compared
with the vituperative and vitri-
olic editorials you will soon be
reading in your daily papers
from Maine to California, all
aimed at poor Henry!
Henry Wallace will soon feel
the wrath of the "free" press.
But evidently he doesn't care.
He must believe that the Amer
lean workers are sufficiently en-
lightened to defend themselves
before the onslaught intended to
destroy the very liberty our
fighting men are giving their
lives to protect in America, and
to establish where it doesn't ex-
list.
OUR DEBT
We owe Henry Wallace debt
we shall never be able TO repay.
Shomehow, / imagine the only
compensation he wants is to see
the common man get wise to
himself and have his day. He
placed his head on the chopping
block for you, and you, and me,
and the least we can do is to
listen to what he says, and carry
his message to others.
If every person in the United
States were able to hear or read
Wallace's address to the Detroit
war workers last Sunday, they
would be receiving an inexpen-
sive education, and a truer and
more worthwhile one than many
of us have received in our Amer
lean schools.
We have heard a lot of hula
baloo about preserving democ-
racy for ourselves and our COM
panion countries of the United
Nations, which are not democra-
cies by any stretch of the imagi-
nation. But Henry Wallace did
more to help the war effort and
aid in construction of future
lasting peace, by arousing the
working people and informing
them of their deserved status in
the postwar era, than his adj
versaries have done.
This is a peoples war. At
least if we heed the words of
our assistant chief executive, it
will be one. To win the war and,
lose the peace, or to win the war
and lose to the American Fas-
cists on the home front, would
be no better than to have lost
the war in the first place.
Wallace's speech will not be
his last. Obviously, he has the
approval of the President Let's
not let them down, or We'll all

Staying Power
FdvorsCriinnnins
Over Joe Norris
BY HAROLD KAHL

Joe Norris is best at 40 games,
John Crimmins at so. That has
been the consensus of opinion as
TO the winner whenever a match
involving this pair has been dis
cusSed in the past.
And il still holds to the present.
For that reason Crimmins will be
the favorite When Detroits two
outstanding bowlers open their 80
game home and home series over
the newly resurfaced alleys No. IS
and IA at the Palace Recreation
tonight, starting at 8 O'Clock.
Those who voice this opinion
point out Crimmins is the more
experienced and proven at indl-
vidual match play That he is bet
ter equipped for 80 games than 90
against Norris because the longer
the grind the better he becomes.
