One Word Led 10 Another
By ARTHUR BUGS" BAER-

Ny town is again putting in bid for the Republican
and Democratic conventions. 1t figures this 1914 CAM
paign is going TO be hotter than Spanish cooking.
We wrote TO the different committees. But they
ignored just like there. And we were.
Back m 1856 put m sealed bid FOR the big
political meetings but had to settle for lecture blue
delft china by fellow whose last public appearance had
been that Of guest artist at flea circus.
We tried for the Republicans first because thought
they going TO win We didn't know that Mr. Roose
welt was making the White House a home away from
home
We figured on both conventions because they didn't
do thing in Madison Square Garden that they can't do
in car barn. And there's why nominating
speeches should interfere with streetcar service.
Our public address system is good. All depends on
how loud you holler
There will be gouging of delegates by the hotels
and stores We one-price town The price is all
the money you got.
We not going to bother with seats. We kept
tabs in Chicago San Francisco Kansas City New York
and Cleveland and found the delegates stand up cheer
they stand up vote they stand up boo they stand
up to show respect dsrepect and they stand up to
demonstrate.

btBbfSftEb T u m q r has n
i that Marshal Goering, chief
OF the German air forces, is in
the DOLLHOUSE and may even be
replaced by a younger general
more alert 10 the facts OF aviaz
ton life. Probably the rumor
is unfounded, but il serves TO
underline the fact that "A mill
tary leader who has, been so
consistent v wrong-headed
should have remained IN power
this long.
1t is a revealing commentary
on the nature of dictatorship.
There are still people who talk
about the superior efficiency
of the Fascist state. :.
The case Of Goering provides
the refutation. He conceived
the iuftwaffe wrongly purely as
an auxiliary TO the army, there
after adhered TO his mistakes
stubbornly and has reaped a
series of aerial disasters.
In democracy Goering would
have been forced by an out
ragged public opinion TO revise
his ideas or get out. In the
German super-State, mistakes,
if they originate in high places,
tend to be perpetuated.
TIVE Germans had developed
Il tactical aviation brilliantly.
They exploit d il TO the full in
conquering Poland and western
Europe But they were dismally
short-sighted on the use Of air
power in its primary strategic
role. beyond its function as an
auxiliary in support of surface
actions.
In the Battle of Britain they
failed But instead of learning
from his costly mistakes. Goe-
ring had the power 10 alibi
them. Instead of turning TO
true strategic air power the
iuftwaffe remained stuck in the
swamps of military illusions.
Lack of long-range aviation
in sufficient strength prevented
the Germans from exploiting
their initial victories over Rus
STA The same lack gave the
Anglo-American forces the right
of way in Africa. then in Sicily
and southern Italy.
IN THE United States. too, the
Il second World War found us
with wrong notions on the role
Of aviation and therefore wrong
equipment, which is always a
reflection Of military ideas

inadequate but wrongly con-
ceived as merely supporting

THEY want Stain to help

want Stain to say some nice
words so that their faces might
be saved. And look at this:
"They (the internationaiSts)
cannot protest against realistio
policies of the state department.,
or criticise Churchill for wish
ing to preserve the British em-
pire, while they remain tongue
tied when the largest country
on earth extends her territory
by unilateral and even ruthless
methods.
"Such inconsistency and IL
nudity by so many supporters
OF international cooperation
will tend, we believe, to discredit
the moral validity of our cause
with the American people.
IF internationally m n d e d
leaders fail to express construc-
lively what so many Americans

the influence of the isolationist
press, which does express that

DUNK! What they call the
- isolationist press" with
which they now agree ION this
issue only are American ed

reporters who have been think
ing and working for the inter-
ests of the United States of
America and who have refused
to subordinate their own coun-

isolationism; that is patriotism.
This is not sedition in wartime;
that Is nationalism at all times.

The object Of the letter is TO

that Stains attitude is wrong,

They apologize for their own
