A Time for Extru Effort

A short time ago, although ad-
mitting the possibility of a sudden
German collapse, Prime Minister
Churchill warned that the European
war might not end until early next
Summer Now, in his statement at
the opening of the new session of
Parliament, he is even more eau
tious, feeling disposed to drop the
word early"
Mr.. Churchill still is willing to
concede that our Allied victory may
come sooner, but he emphasizes the
fact that the Germans-with their
land invaded and their backs
against the Wall-are strengthened
by the supreme stimuli which
such an immense danger creates for
the endangered, the same kind of
stimuli as galvanized the British in
the dark days after Dunkerque.
Indeed, the character of NaZi resist
ance in the West, mounting daily in
bitterness, tends so much to confirm
this point that the prospect of
several more months of war in Eu-
rope no longer seems out of the
question and must certainly be
be reckoned with.
Yet reckoning with it does not
mean resigning ourselves to it. On
the contrary, the mere fact that
such possibility exists should lead
to a maximum effort to achieve
what is at least equally possible-a
much earlier defeat of GERMANY.
before winters end or by spring at
the latest. In being cautious, Mr..
Churchill is not being pessimistic:
actually, far from being that, he
strongly suggests that he entertairs
a highly hopeful view of what may
happen in the next few weeks
around Cologne and he makes the
significant announcement that the
great port of Antwerp-Which Nazi
propagandists have pictured as
being battered into uselessness by
rocket bombs-"is now receiving
large conveys of ocean-going ships, -
thus giving our armies an "incom-
parable sea base" of the utmost
value in rushing mountains of sup
plies to the most decisive sectors of
the western front.
At this critica1 poipt II, tho u-ar
with Antwerp available and with our
forces moving inexorably forward
in the region of Cologne, anything
can happen. It may be, of course,
that the battle will go on through
the winter, through the spring and
beyond the early summer, but there
is still good reason to hope other
wise. If there is no letup anywhere,

either on the home front or the
firing line, If there is instead an
increased effort-especially in keep
ing our armies fully supplied-then
the brightest of events may develop
with the most gratifying speed and
the Nazis may be finished before
the new year grows aged. Mr..
Churchill's caution by no means
denies such a happy possibility.

Laughs at Congress Members
To the Editor of The Star:

To the Editor of The Star:
In the news columns of The Star it
is announced that II House members,
including Mrs. Clare Boothe Luce, have
arrived in London on an inspection tour.
The spokesman for the group is reported
to have announced the purpose of the
trip as being ito bring to the people at
home first-hand report of what the
men are doing"
With experienced and capable re-
porters on the job, official 'communiques
and daily reports of casualties appearing
in the newspapers and reports hourly
over the radio, there is little doubt that
the people back home will wait breath
lessly for the proposed first-hand report
of what the men are doing over there.
Though serious as the situation it, it is
to laugh! E. M. PETERSON.

However grimly the last battles In
Europe or the Far East rage, is is. the
duty of statesmen who expect to be
victorious to look ahead and plan post
war frontiers and settlements. It is the
duty OF Parliament to think and talk
OF the future even when the missiles of
the enemy are still falling on South
ern England. But it should be the pur-
pose and resolve of the nation to re-
member that every one Of its schemes

Popular Friday Night Musical Events Have Been Silent
 Four Years; July 2S Tentative Date

Thomaston. July l4-After . four year intermisslon band concerts may be resumed by the Thomaston Marine band at Kenea park. These concerts were very popular and at. tracted crowds from surrounding towns and helped local business men as Friday evening on which the concerts were held Is shopping night ln Thomaston. If plans ma. terlallze these popular concerts will begin July %. Al Brown, who has been a member of the band since It's founding. has approached several business men and has received gene erous cooperation and it is pre- sumed the rest of the local mer- chants will fall in line. Thomaston is perhaps the last town in New England states that kept up the time honored Friday evening band concerts and after . four-year lay- off the local people should get be- hind this drive to raise funds for concerts In order that Thomaston can still boast that 1t is the only town in New England to hold the weekly concerts. Thomaston should be proud of this distinction and also to the fact that we have such a good band. Local people as well as merchants should do all they can to make the music fund drive Q success.
