FURY IN THE AIR

U. S. air operations out of Eng
land are now by far the most exten-
sive and toughest operations of the
u. S. air forces. Fliers who have
seen action in four theaters-China,
the Pacific, North Africa, and Eu-
rope-say the first three are child's
play compared with the current flax
and-fighter opposition of Germans.
The first flight a year ago was
made without the loss of single
U. S. plane. The Germans were
caught off guard by the daylight
raid. But such things don't happen
any more. 1t is no secret that U. S.
losses on each raid over the conti-
nent are high enough to hurt badly,
though not high enough to stop the
operations.
War correspondents in Britain de-
clare that U. S. airmen who fly these
missions are the greatest heroes of
the war. They have to face more
fighting fury, and face it with more
skill, than any other men in this
war-whether fighting on land, sea
or in the air.

PEOPLE MUST, AND WILL,
DEMAND A FREE PRESS

THE SUPREME COURT has
ruled that the Communications COM
mission has jurisdiction over radio
programs. Under that decision
members of the Communications
commission can say who can and
who cannot broadcast. 1t can pre-
scribe what may and what may not
be said. The decision limits the
freedom of speech. Apply the same
thing to the newspapers and we have
a government-controlled press, as
we now have controlled radio and
as they have in the dictator nations
of Europe. The courts decision was
it's Interpretation of an act Of con-
gress. If congress did not mean
what the court says it did, it is up
to congress to say so in words that
cannot be misinterpreted. The prob
lem of a free press is involved in
that decision and the American peo-
pie want, and demand, free press.

Allies, soldiers and civilians, may

WAR IS A LONG ROAD with
many turns, but one of those turns
will mark the end.
1T HAS BEEN a bit of 'fSar Of

''hustle" that has made America the
land on which all the world calls
for succor.

AMERICAS FUTURE
DEPENDS ON WANTS,

AMERICAS FUTURE
DEPENDS ON WANTS
AM WAITING for the war to end
with our assured victory so l may
satisfy a number of simple wants.
/ want to enjoy the luxury of an
extra tube of shaving cream-I am
sadly in need of pipe cleaners
should like an extra pair of shoes-l
should like some linen handker-
chiefs and a half dozen pairs OF
nylon socks. For the home we would
like a car, a lawn mower, rake and
spade, new cords for the electric
iron and for some floor lamps, re-
pairs for a radio, new bed sheets,
a chair reupholstered, water pipe
with which to carry water line
into the garage.
Such things are simple wants.
They do not represent much in
themselves, but l am but one of 13O
million people and our home is but
one of more than 20 million. Small
as my personal and home wants
are, when multiplied by the 130 and
the 20 million, they represent a
great total for industry to supply
only in the small personal things
which help to make American busi-
ness. Those multiplied wants will
supply jobs for some millions of
workers and will go far toward
maintaining the American standard
of living.
Add to these the larger needs,
such as new rails and rolling stock
for the railroads, new farm machin-
cry, new homes and buildings, new
trucks, and it multiplies into mil
lions of more jobs. To these again
can be added the demand for those
new things inventive science has
produced under the spur of war
emergency. For the production of
these new machines and new fac
tories will be needed. The problem
will not be jobs-it will be to find
workers to fill the jobs.
Such is the prospect of America
in the near future, provided indus
try is permitted to retain enough of
it's earnings to finance the rebuild
ing to meet peace-time needs. If
the government takes all, with moth
ing left to care for the financing of
the change to peace-time produc-
ton, the postwar period will offer
a serious problem for all of us to
face. There will not be jobs for
the workers and there will not be
markets for the food products of the
farms.

q Quite few Italian soldiers in
Sicily undressed, hid their uniforms,
put on overalls and went home to
work to avoid becoming prisoners.
q When fortnight ex-assistant Sec
retary of war Louis Johnson got
back from India his report was so
critical of the British that state de-
partment officials scarcely believed
parts of it. But after Ambassador
Bill Phillips got back from his India
survey, Undersecretary Sumner
Welles told Johnson that pro-British
Phillips was in complete agreement.
q Among other things, Phillips ad-
vised that Field Marshal Waven was
inadequate to command in Burma.
He was subsequently relieved of his
military duties.

BEATING INITIATION
is A u. S. MUST

JOE BLACKS little family is pro-
tected by a life insurance policy
which Joe is carrying. Should any,
thing happen to Joe that would mean
his wife and children had lost the
provider of food, clothes and a
home, they would fall back on that
$4,000 which Joe has thoughtfully
and at a sacrifice to himself, pro-
vided for them.
The value of that $4,000 is what
it will buy. If we should have even
a moderately wild imitation and a
dollar would buy only what ten cents
will buy now, Joe would not have
left his family a $4,000 value-he
would have left only $1,000 value.
We can have that kind of initiation
if the government continues to
finance its expenditures by borrow
ing from the banks. That is but
creating additional money that goes
into the hands of the people, Great
ing additional demand for commodi-
ties and forcing prices higher and
higher.
To avoid imitation, to avoid de-
preciating the value of Joe Blacks
$4,000 insurance policy, the govern
ment must get that needed money
to finance the war from the people
as individuals, either in the form of
taxes or bond purchases. 1t is to
our interest as individuals to see
that happen. We can better afford
to pay increased taxes and to buy
bonds than to depreciate the value
of our dollars through imitation.

LUDWIG'S WARNING

Emil Ludwig, famous German au-
thor and biographer, recently had a
unique session with the armys
school for military government at
Charlottesville, Va, as to what the
Allies should do with Germany after
the war.
Ludwig gave a series of lectures
on how to prevent another Hitler
from arising and plunging the world
into another war 20 years hence.
Based upon years of studying Bis
marck, Hindenburg and the Kaiser,
the German historian urged that
there be a strong army of occupa-
ton by all the United Nations for
at least five years.
"The German people should know
for the first time in 13O years." he
said, what foreign authority looks
like. Only thus can they be brought
to understand that they have been
defeated
Ludwig pointed out that German
militariSm always had come from
Prussia, while Germany's culture
had come from the south and west.
Therefore he proposed splitting Ger
many up into two states: Cd Prus-
sia, small and isolated; and (2) Ba-
varia, Saxony, and the smaller Cath
olic German states which are not
militaristic and which would be
joined with Austria. This would put
the Catholics in one country and the
Lutheran Prussians in another.
No Poor Misguided Germans.
Leave to the Germans all that
other nations have" Ludwig recon-
mended, ''but take away their
weapons, supervise their education,
and give them political guardian
ship. If you do not, and if you speak
of the poor misguided German
people, then 20 years from now
your sons will be fighting another
war against them.
what I fear" continued Ludwig,
els that on the day after the death
of Hitler, the Junkers, the generals
will kowtow to you and say, we
love Americans. Come, let us be
brothers again. 1 fear that some
of you will say, Now let us make
peace. They are good people, these
generals
but they are not. They are not
one whit better than the Hitlers.
They merely have better Manners"
Ludwig declared.
Note: Ludwig paid tribute pri-
vately to the excellent job the army
was doing at its school for military
government. He said he had sell
dom met such an intelligent, pro-
gressive group of men, with such a
grasp on the worlds future prob
lens.

PARATROOP MIRACLE

There was one thrilling bit of un-
told history regarding the Allied
landing in Sicily which only now can
be revealed. A division of U. S.
parachute troops actually stopped
about two Nazi divisions which were
dashing to the seacoast to await Al
lied landing barges.
This occurred the night before the
landing barges arrived. Had the
paratroopers not succeeded in hold
ing up the Nazis, U. S. troops might
have landed literally in blood.
What happened was that the para
troopers, coming down mysterious
ly at night, not far from the Nazi
divisions, fooled the enemy into
thinking he was outnumbered. Actu-
ally, paratroop division is far in
ferior in numbers to a division of
ground troops. But the Nazis could
not tell in the dark how many Amer
leans there were, got the impress
sion that the sky was packed with
paratroopers.
So they decided to camp for the
night and get ready for a fight the
next morning. But by daylight U. S.
landing barges were safely ashore.

These statements go far to answer the

about the emergency war regulations:
Are they designed to strengthen our fight

If the answer is affirmative, then we
are for them, regardless of inconvenience,
imperfect enforcement and administrative

Those who would avoid the drastic
regulation of war can do so. Let them join

that they desire.
