LOBBY WORK GOING ON

What these combined pressure
groups can do is perhaps best illus
trated in what they have attempted
to Go to stop development of public
housing in Washington, D. C. by
lobbying against activities of the
National Capital Housing authority,
whose executive officer is John
Ihlder, for many years a champ
ion of slum clearance and decent
housing for low income groups. In
10 years, Ihlder'S NCHA has built
1858 units of permanent slum re-
clamation, low rent and war hous-
ing, 234l units of temporary war
housing. Half are for Negroes.
There has been opposition to
public housing in Washington all
this time, but the battle has been

tation and the liquidation Of foreign
owned balances in other words,
the problem is to carry lend-leaSe
to its logical conclusion. The long
term problem is the maintenance
of as even balances as possible.
The procedure for the first prob
lem is relatively simple, and in any
case lies largely in tie control of
the United States. For the second
it is intricate. In essence it must
be based upon relationship be-
tween the American dollar and the
British pound, though cooperation
Of the nations of the world will be
required.
5. Finally, the Republican plat
form should state the conviction
that, Mr., Churchill tC the contrary,
the ideologies for which we fight
have not become blurred for us in
the course of the fighting but have
become clearer every day and that,
Mr.. Roosevelt to the contrary, in
becoming wiser we have not become
more cynical. We knew that the
sacrifice of our men and women
in this war has not been made SIM
ply in order to defend ourselves
against brute force. We are fight
ing a war for freedom; we are fight
ing a war for mems minds. This
means that we must encourage
mems just aspirations for freedom
not cnly at home but everywhere
in the world.

LOSING MAIN GAINS

Today all Americans watch with
anxious hearts, and with pride and
gratitude, the accomplishments of
our armed forces in the far Pacific,
in Italy, in Russia, and now on the
shores of France. But while they
are winning the armed victory for
us, we already have begun to lose
the things that victory could bring.
Three years ago, two years ago, the
United States had the material, the
political, the moral leadership of
the world Today we have only the
material leadership. We have lost
political leadership through inept-
ness and delay. We have lost moral
leadership through attempted eX-
pediency.
The Republican party should
frame and pursue a foreign policy
that will recapture Americas lost
leadership.

HOW HOUSING is
BEING FOUGHT

The battle over public VS.. private
housing in Washington as waged
during the last five months before
the District of Columbia subcom-
mittees of both Senate and House
has been exceedingly bitter. Some
real estate men and some congress-
men think that now is the correct
moment to administer a death blow
to all publicity financed housing
projects. Their drive is from
number of angles:
>. To stop all further federal
appropriations for housing aid. In
the last four years federal aid has
been confined to war housing.
2. To require that all federally
built war housing not meeting To-
cal building codes be torn down,
in the same manner that all tenn
porary war housing must by law be
torn down within two years after
the President shall declare the end
of the national emergency.
3. To reduce real estate taxes
so as to allow home owners to de-
duct depreciation on oWner-occu-
pied homes and on privately fin
anced housing developed for low
income groups.
4. To force liquidation of the
federal governments Home owners
Loan corporation and force sale of
HOLC mortgages to private finance
companies.
5. To raise rent ceilings where
they were frozen at depression lev
els or below cost of maintenance.
6. To get rid of War Production
board restrictions on buildings as
fast as materials requirements for
war production permit.
7. To turn slum clearance over
to private capital, ending direct fed
eral rent subsidies for loW-income
family housing projects. Some pri-
Vate builders assert they could take
over the housing of loW-income
families by using the old public
charity rent certificates" idea of
depression days.

A. B. Cobb this week recovered the
last of a string of rotary drill pipe

made when 126 feet of pipe was
shot off after the bit became stuck.

Following this duty he reported to the good ship James Parker" an air-conditioned and fire-proof vessel. on which he sail ed around the word. While chap lain on a troop ship, he took the first American soldiers to Bermuda, Trinidad, Iceland, Aruba, New Zea- land, the Belgian Congo, and made many trips to Australia, the Is- lands, South America, and various parts of Africa.
 Chaplain Maple has passed through the Panama Canal eighteen times but says he really doesn't know much about the canal, since he slept during the passages as the temperature was at least 10 de- grees cooler and more conducive to slumber. He is very familiar with ports of the USA as he has picked up troops on both coasts.
 His promotion to Captain came in July, 1922. He reported to Brad ley Field as Base Chaplain 6 De- cember, 1942, and was promoted to Major in March, 1943.
 The Chaplain and his wife, Mrs. Katherine Naples, have an unusual ly interesting family of 6 children, 3 boys and 3 girls. One child was born in Alabama, one in Kentucky, one in Nebraska, one in New York and two were born in Missouri. They are making their home at the present time in West Suffield.

TRENDS OF WAR

Strategy for the defeat of Ger many was taking shape as the AL lied air armada blazed new vapor traits across European skies and trails across European skies closer to the vital interior defenses of Nazi land. Heaviest blow of the week fell on Brunswick where 97 tons of bombs a minute added to the inferno created by an earlier AAF raid. Other targets of the Tanks were plane assembly plants at Olschersleben, Halberstadt and Mippen. In the latter attacks, one of the biggest fleets of American bombers ever assembled struck a mortal blow at Hitler's depleted air strength. Coupled with these blows were the continuation of night and day assaults against enemy install lations along the invasion coast.
 Supplementing the saturation of the Reich was the sustained pres sure of Red offensives in the east. For the first time in many months the entire Soviet front blazed into action. From Leningrad to Kerch, the Nazis were falling back before the hammer-like blows of Stalin's war machine. Most notable gains came in the Sarny sector where the spearhead of Vatutin's First Ura- inian Army had famed out to crip- pie most of the Nazis' communica- ton lines in Old Poland.
 Allied troops in Italy registered minor gains in the advance toward Rome. The principal action centered around Cassino where French and American troops were striving to penetrate vital enemy defenses. Across the Adriatic Tito's Yugo- slavian armies made some advanc- es in the Bosnian hills.

WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT YOUR INSURANCE?

Among the many advantages of National Service Life Insurance is the fact, almost completely unique in the insurance business, that a converted policy has cash surren der value at the end of the first year. In other words, this means that if you convert your present 5 year level premium term policy, after you have held it one year, to an ordinary life policy, a 20-pay- ment life policy, or a 30-payment life policy, you may cash it in or borrow money on it after only one year of the existence of the new policy.
 This cash value will be the re- serve plus any dividend accumula- tions. All values, reserves, and net single premiums are based on the American experience table of nor tallty with interest at the rate of three percent a year. Incidentally, in case you return to civilian life within the five year period, with your policy unconverted, it will be possible for you to make the change and receive all the benefits from the new policy even then.
 What all this means is simply that in purchasing National Serv- ice Life Insurance you are getting a policy which, though it does not have cash value itself, may be cas- fly converted into one that does have. Furthermore, and remarkably enough, the cash value will be available after only one year.

A Utraplattl E UhnnghtH

The world is scurrying hither and yon today-looking for solutions. One pressing problem that demands a solution in the very near future is the territorial limit problem of the occupied and conquered nations of the world. Another problem con cerns the determination of the rights and privileges of races; and yet another problem crying for a solution is the case of the Jewish people across the globe. These, and others, face the lawmakers and wArlords and peacemakers; and while we fight the war to preserve our way of life, we must not forget that our way of life is no longer an independent and peculiarly Amer ican tradition-the whole civilized world looks and longs for those same basic freedoms which we cher ish as God-given rights to free men. Now, being God-given rights, we must not neglect Gods part in the shaping of the solution of distrib- uting these freedoms to peace-lov- ing peoples. One means, and in fact, the chief means, of asking Gods help in preparing our solution is the channel of prayer.
 Too many men and women regard prayer as a pietistic narcotic by which old women dull their exis- tence into comforting stupor-noth- ing could be further from the truth. Prayer is the raising of our minds and hearts to God to implore His help and intercession in human affairs. As the Creator of men and Ruler of human destinies, God must not be left out of consideration in setting up any solution for human society's problems. If we would all pray daily for Gods blessing and guidance on our leaders and law makers and on their international discussions, we would add an intan- gible influence and spiritual char acteristic which council tables have hitherto sorely lacked.
 Pray once month, or pray more often; but if your faith in God is vital and living, you will add your little prayer every day to bring the priceless weight of Divine Guidance into the deliberations of men in high counsel and influence. Pray today and everyday; make the prayer, the time, the place your own,-only pray.
