EYES," THE ALLIES REPLY
One Key Wester says:


1.-The bully blares loudest when he's
trumps up more lies to try to screen the ones
he has already told
{ Says another Key Wester:
'You must be talking about Germany
and Italy. Hitler and Mussolini are blaring
louder now than during any other time
since the war began about their certainty
of crushing the enemy. The only thing lack
ing in the Boosting is another attempt to
try to scare the Allied Nations with hints
about terrible secret weapon Presum-
ably the German and Italian propagandists
realize that the Americans and the English
refuse to be frightened by secret weapon"
tales, and are now trying in other ways ito
throw scare into the Allies.
Radio Rome and Radio Berlin are now
talking about suicide raids on New York
City, and, while raiding that city or any
ether in the United States is possible, the
threat falls flat
Rejoins the first Key Wester:
However, all our chuckling and all our
laughter have not stopped Italy and Ger
many from issuing, day in and day out, their
tissue of lies. In that regard, Italy is far
worse than Germany. n.every sea battle be-
tween the Italians and the English, the
Italians we're decisively trounced; half of
their fleetsfies on the bottom of the sea. but
Italy still continues togive outstories, wholly
Pigments of the imagination, about the sink
ing of three or five or a dozen-the matter
of figures is of no consequence to the Ital-
ian agandists-British ships, almost al
ways one of them a battleship or airplane
carrier. Since the war began the Italians
have sunk at least twenty times more war
ships than the British have ever had in
this war"
Concludes the second Key Wester:
"Htler's stentorian Propaganda Min
lister Goering trumpets the threat that the
German U-boats ultimately will destroy
the Allies, and while his tones are still re-
sounding throughout the world mingled
with them are soft-voiced peace-feelers
reaching The Allies by way of supposedly
neutral Spain. :
'eWho was behind the peaee-feelers?
You may be.sure that both Hitler and Mus
solini were; and it should be -heatening to
the Allied Nations to know that, while the
cornered bullies are now blaring loudest,
they are trying surreptitiously to learnif the
Allies are receptive to peace"
"Yes,' the Allies reply; unconditional
surrender"

OUR AIRCRAFT CARRIERS

The services being rendered the ma
ton, in its war emergency, by various vol
unteer groups should not be. overlooked.
The individuals who give of their time to
perform what may seem to be routine duty
are entitled to the satisfaction that comes
to those who serve the public interest.
One of the largest groups is known as
the Aircraft Warning Service, which oper-
ates twenty-four hour duty, with more than
thousand volunteers advising the army as
to the passage of aircraft overhead.
It lis not easy for men, women and teen
age youngsters to keep vigil during the day
and night, especially when the immediate
tension is not overwhelming. Consequently,
it is more commendable when group, like
the Ground Observer Corps, makes such a
fine record of service.
