When Cruelty TO Animals
Wasn't q Crime

that Granger got, it is ncverthe
less true that the Bible is full OF
admoujtions against overWorklng
or torturing beasts. And Louis
Guinzberg Of the Jewish Theo-
logical Seminary pointed out
some time ago that the Old Tes-
lament ordained that oxen should
not bee muzzled while treading
out corn. that nevis should not
be robbed of their fledglings,
that no one should rend a live
animal and eat its flesh, that the
chase is unthinkable, except in
sclf-defense, and that "a right
cous man regardeth the life of
his beast
Agitation for Furnishing man
for being cruel TO animals began
around 1909, when Lord Ersklne
proposed a bill in the British
House of Lords TO prevent wan
ton and malicious cruelty TO ami
mails and was met with loud
jcers, but in 1910 when George
Greenwood, Mp, suggested a bill
designed TO ameliorate the condi-
tions of worn-out horses slated
for export, his remarks were
chcercd by Commons.
In 1922, Richard Martin,
whom King George " called
humanity" Martin. proposed a
bll against cruelty TO horses. It
PASSED and two men were fined

practically no risk involved in
getting a good yield The big
gest risk is market prices. The
dollhouse farmer, with a tremen-
dous overhead, can only be sure
of an adequate return when mar
l5et prices remain steady. With
a wartime food shortage there is
TO current worry on that score.
The real trick Of the dollhouse

6266 PARTS IN A
BOMBER ENGINE

A recent publication issued by
the Division of Information OF
WPB in Washington reports tina,
the automobile manufacturers arc
now producing more than 200 war
items in plants that were com
pletely converted from mass pro-
duction of motor cars. In describ-
ing Conversion of Industry" the
report says: I'm such plants layout

The unprecedented transforma-
tion from civilian production of au-
tomobiles to all-out war products
is the greatest story in the entire
history of American Woodworking

century to build most of the auto

CREDIT AND DISCREDFT

In a democracy such as our own
where all people are free to think
to speak, and to act for themselves
there is always a great variety OF
opinions concerning a number of
vital national problems. But there
is one issue now before the coun-
try upon which most of us are
agreed-that this war must be won
and won as quickly as possible.
On the credit side of all-out war
production, so essential to the win
ming of the war. we have great in
dustries which have turned from
the production of peace time pro-
ducts to the production of ships.
planes. tanks. guns. trucks. and
hundreds of other war needs with
the greatest possible speed. We
have millions of skilled workers
who are not only performing their
regular tasks but are helping the
new workers to learn their new
war jobs. We have housewives.
businessmen. the handicapped, and
even older children who spend Ell
ther a part of their time or their
whole time in the war plants.
These are the 100 per cent loyal
Americans who. while giving up
many of the things they are accus-
toned TO having. are putting in ex-
trae time, extra money. and extra
effort for the common good. They
are the people who will win this
war and keep its cost in lives and
in dollars to a minimum.
On the debit side we have those
who would make a profit or a holi-
day out of the war. These thought
less or unpatriotic men and women
are not only unwilling to give up
the things to which they are accus-
toned, but actually stay away from
their jobs or go out on strike be-
cause they want more leisure OF
more money.
Between unauthorized strikes and
absenteeism. America
is losing millions of man-hOurs that
should be devoted to the prOduc-
ton of weapons so urgently needed
by our armed forces.
The great majority of the Ameri
can people who are doing theil
jobs have every right TO expect
equal effort from those who shirk
by staying away from their work
good or sufficient reasons.
Dr. striking for any reason at all.
Resentment toward these strik-
ers and absentees is rising on all
sides. 1t is reflected in the press,
It public meetings, and in the Con-
yress of the United States. If those
who are now clogging the war ef-
ort. through any one of a dozen
levices, cannot see the light in time
is more than likely that effective
measures will be taken TO control
hem.

Pastor AIethpdist Church. Cseiifon, Nd.

On a flight from Chicago to tn,
West Coast the passengers noticed
that whenever they put down at ths
various airports, they were always
under overcast skies, but while in
flight they were travelling above
the clouds in brilliant sunshine.
If we could only get above the

Did not God intend that we
should live in sunshine? But man

their origin in greed. isis.
Because we are so eager to get
something which is just beyond our
reach. or so fearful, of losing what
we have already gotten, or fEetting
about what we might have had, we
overcast our skies with clouds of
disappOintments, discouragements
apprehensions, strains, worries and
fears.
Because of possible added gains,
or because of trying to prevent pos
sible losses. we begin to count ev-
cry minute as valuable and start
rushing. Hence, tension, strain,
and later breakdOwns, nervous dis
orders, stomach ulcers and dia-
betes.
There are other values in life
besides success. among which are
good digestion. ability to sleep, a
clear conscience, a vital trust in
Gods daily and continuing care.
Some people regard religion as
a fools paradise. But if it prevents
breakdowns. high bloOd-pressure I
and heart failure. perhaps it isn't
so foolish after all
Since there is always sunshine
above the clouds and since a vital
faith in God will lift you above
clouds. why not trust
in God?

driven by greed but who walk arm
in arm with a Heavenly Father.

Distribution of necessities to the
armed forces is justly considered
an essential activity. The ques-
ton can fairly be asked. is no dis
tributiOn of goods to civilians
equally important? Every war
worker must eat and wear clothes
before he can build planes and
ships. The retail distribution in
dustry is the channel through
which the food and clothes must
flow. Retailing is a complex, high
ly developed business. Every mer-
chant must be skilled technician

mess. Today he is serving in a
double capacity. Not only must he
feed and clethe civilians, he must
also make price and rationing mea-
sures working realities. The
spectre of uncontrolled imitation
would be revealed with stark clar-
ity, but for the efficiency of retail
distributors.
In spite of the vital character of
retail merchandising, it's problems

Retailers are doing their utmost
to serve consumers efficiently. In
return, they ask common-sense reg
ulations and a minimum of skilled
manpower. The country will suf-
fer in direct proportion to the lack
of these merchandising require
ments. - !tpsH!
