NEW ChnLE SPEEDS
CUMMUNzGATI0NS
IN BATTLE AREAS

"Spiral 4" is the name for new
cable which is one OF the most efTec-
tive communication aids in modern
warfare The spiral u cable is about
the thickness of a fat lead pencil. AS
the name implies, it contains only
four wires which run in spiral
throughout the length of the rubber
covered cable
The wires can handle both telegraph
and telephone messages. Equipped
with Carrier" currents, each wire
can handle several messages stimuli
taneously without interference. The
cable is made in quarter-mile lengths,
the ends Of which are fitted with
weather-proof connectors. This en-
ables the Signal Corps to install very
quickly communication facilities be-
tween rapidly moving military units
simply by throwing the cable on the
ground and attaching the ends to-
gether. Furthermore, should any
nasty Nazi eavesdrop by tapping
these wires, it would disappoint him
no end, for he would hear only lot
Of unintclligent gibberish which by
clever mechanism is made intelligent
at the receiving end.

Take Time Out e.
BY wILBERT NATHAN SAVAGE

War, like anything else, eventually
becomes a trite subject. People cease
to be intensely interested in its every
phase and aspect. As months 90 by
official communicates - unless they
make frequent stirring announcements
grow heavy with monotony; the
subject of war gives way to discus
sions of home-front difficulties.
A thousand bombers over Germany
u. Raiding of Jap bases in the
South Pacific -. New advances in
Italy d. Sensational gains by the
Russians . the Temperance Of
new and deadlier U-boats in the At
lantic-all these and other announce
ments fail to stimulate our tagging
interest in the war,
Take time out from your home
front worries and ask yourself: "What
does a thousand bombers mean, with
their crews amounting to nine thou
sand men, roaring through pitch
black darkness ?" "How would | stack
up with those who hung Oh at Sa-
lerno?" "What sort of fighting spirit
must the Russians possess ?" Just
what are MacArthur's men facing in
the disease-ridden zones Of battle ?"
Ask yourself 49,.
Take time out to cultivate a re-
newed interest in your America-in
the stream of the finest of our ma
tons boys who are again going "over
there"-only this time there's a dou-
BILE mission.
And above all else, take time out
to ask yourself: cam l as fighting
mad as | was the day after Pearl
Harbor?"

Preventing
World Wars
BY LIONEL CURTIS

IIoW ARE WE to prevent worly
wars in the future?
~ q In trying 20 answer this ques,
ton | feel, like most Anglo-SaXons,
that page Of experience is a safeI
guide than volumes Of theory.
From 1915 to 1914 there were nc
world wars-and why? Mr.. Walter
Lippmann has given the answer to
this question in his recent book. In the
18th century Britain was able to main
tain fleet strong enough to prevent
aggressive autocracies from sending
their armies across the oceans from
one continent to another. When the
Grand Alliance proposed to reconquer
the South American Republics for
Spain, Canning warned the allied po-
tentates that the British fleet would
stop them; and a world war was thus
averted. Even Bismarck never at
tempted to challenge the power of the
British Navy to do this and Britain
was able to pay for a navy on the
two-power standards, by virtue of the
flying start she had gained from the
invention Of the steam engine and
the industrial revolution.

THE AMERICAN WAY OF
LIFE
By RUTH TAYLOR

What is the American way Of life?
We have used the phrase so fire.
quently that sometimes it seems a
trifle thread bare at the corners, its
lustre dulled by familiarity. Our pub
lie speakers-particularly in campaign
times-act as though it were an "ab-
racadabra' or magic word that could
unlock hidden troves Of treasure.
OF course you know the full mean
ing of the phrase but have you ever
tried to explain the American way
of life to someone who did not know
America who was not stepped in the
traditions Of democracy?
l have-and let me assure you it is
no easy task. But it does make you
stop and think what you really mean
by the American way of life Here is
what | found l meant by the phrase.
The American way of life is the
way of opportunity for all 1t does not
mean an equal distribution Of all
good things, but an equal chance to
work for living at a fair wage. 1t
means free enterprise-free to de-
velOp, but not unbridled license to
exploit either man or natural re-
sources. 1t means an equal opportun-
ity to learn, not an equal ability to
get ahead without work.
The American way Of life is the
way Of self-restrained freedom. Under
it we may freely express our own
opinion-but we abide by the decis-
ion Of the majority. The American
way Of life implies a decent respect
for the beliefs of others. whether or
not we agree with them. Under it
freedom is permitted up to the point
where it impinges upon the rights
Of others.
The American way of life is the
way to progress through the utiljza-
ton Of every resourcc-not merely
the natural ones Of the earth, but Of
that greatest resource Of our nation
the intelligence, the initiative the
productive power latent in every in
dividual, regardless Of class, creed or
color.
The American way Of life is the
way to the rainbow's end, to the full
fillment of the dream of brotherhood
We Americans may have different
faiths, different backgrounds, different
speech, different color We have the
same way Of work, the same way Of
life. We know the same sorrows, joys
and hopes The American way of life
is the way by which we may achieve
the desire of all for a world unvexed
by war, untroubled by want or fear
The American way of life is our
way. Let us walk in it for centuries
to come, its road made steadily
smoother by the patient feet Of each
generation.

to include any other nation which
wishes to enter.
But no nation could, from its ma
ture. enter such system until its own
government was really responsible to,
that is, changeable by, the votes of
its own people.
A summary of these proposals in
the compass Of one article is a danger
Gus thing. | can only refer my readers
to the pamphlets themselves. But
these are difficult times. One large
consignment Of these pamphlets was
lost in transit, and even in England
enough copies cannot be printed to
meet the demand, owing to paper re-
strictions. That is why have re-
stated my ideas briefly herewith.

Brown Denies 0PA
Seeks 10 Dominate
Industrial System
Tells Smith Committee
Agency Does Not Aim
At Controlling Profits

Price Administrator Brown denies
that his agency lis seeking to bring
the entire American industrial sys-
tenn under bureaucratic control" as
charged by Harold l.. Allen, counsel
for the Smith Committee.
Mr.. Brown, who said the OPA has
neither authority nor intention to
control profits, yesterday told the
committee investigating activities
of Federal agencies that his agency
had not been granted such power by
Congress, had not been directed by
the President to do so, and in the
very nature of the case, it would not
be able to do So"
The question of profit control was
raised by Mr.. Allen, who said sub
poenaed files of David Ginsburg, for
mer OPA general counsel, showed
this to be an OPA aim.
Under the guise of wartime price
control set up by Congress to pre-
vent runaway imitation of prices"
he said, "the OPA is seeking to bring
the entire American industrial sys-
tenn under bureaucratic control, by
regulating not the prices of its
products, but by controlling the sum
of its profits, and by freezing them
at the level earned by industry dur
ing the period 1868, irrespective
of whether there has been an in
crease in the price of the manufac-
tured commodity"
Cigarette Ceiling Feared.
Mr.. Ginsburg recently entered the
Army, and Mr.. Allen said the files
he examined had been shipped to
the formers home in West Virginia.
Other OPA-related developments
yesterday were:
Rowland Jones, jr., Washington
representative of the National Re-
tail Druggists Association, testified
OPA is considering a Nationwide
ceiling price on cigarettes" and a
committee member commented this
might mean an intention to elm
mate brands.
Representative Scanlon, Democrat,
Of Pennsylvania told the House that
"profiteering minority in big busi-
ness" is attempting to discredit the
OPA and ito place control OF con-
sumer food prices in the hands of
the War Food Administration where
they knew big business will get
break and the consumer will get it
in the neck"
Withdrew From Discussion.

sible cigarette regulation took place
