OUR VETERANS
Bv WILBERT N. SAVAGE

when war-clouds Unexpectedly
burst on Americas horizon, we had a
tiny army of no more than a few
hundred thousand men. Special desert
training, paratroops, ski troops, and
the technique of Jungle warfare We're
obscure elements Fl a far-distant
dream.
A great General once said; "The
experience of battle comes only in
battle itself" But few if any Of our
men had ever been in battle. We
had no veterans, no seasoned men
with a background Of knowledge
gained in actual combatant service.
Our enemies were situated differ
entity Germany had cunning and high
~ trained veterans of countless
bloody conflicts. Italy had veterans
who had participated in the Albanian
and Ethiopian wars, and Japan had
hordes of veterans who had harassed
the brave Chinese for a half-decade.
Today the story is different. Many
youth who is yet too young to vote
is a veteran; out on the desert we
/ have canny veterans; in the dark
| iungles, Americans with hard-earned
experience anticipate the moves of
crafty Japs; on the high seas we have
men who know the crash of a torpedo
and the feel of a sinking ship; in the
air we have countless flyers with
dozens of expertly fought battles to
their credit.
Rockies, they were, in the begin
ming. Now they're heroes. Once they
were tiny cogs in a growing military
machine; now they are highly essen
tial major parts-veterans who some
day shall bring home final and glor-
ious Victory.

SHARING OR SHORTAGE
By RUTH TAYLOR

There are two subjects uppermost
in our minds today-the fortunes Of
war and the "misfortunes' Of ration
ing. Of the two, except in those
homes who have felt the cold hand Of
the casualty list, the latter is closer
home.
Whether rationing is sharing or
shortage depends upon how we as in
dividuals take it, 1t is up to each and
every one Of us to make it either a
part Of our war effort or an unendur-
able hardship. No one can shirk his or
her decision.
We ration foods, gas, fuel oil and
other commodities for one reason and
one reason alone-so that there may
be no unfairness, no inequality Of
treatment Rationing is a practical ap-
plication Of the democratic ideal. 1t
is proof that this ideal is not merely
q fIowery phrasing Of the thoughts Of
the spirit, but definite guide to a
way of life.
Rationing will work only if we all
work together. If we try to get eX-
ira favors for ourselves, buy from
the black market, hoard beyond our
needs, we are defeating ourselves. We
are sapping the strength of the ma
ton. We are giving comfort and aid
