 "But this. mon1entous question, like a fire bell in the night, awak- ened and filled me with terror" Tthemas Jefferson wrote. that to John Holmes in 1920. and he was writing about the slavery ques- ton. One of the innocent by products of his letter was the ti- tie for Constance Robertson's novel. which is one of the better spring examples. It also bears the signs of others to follow.
 Miss Robertson has set her mo- vel in Syracuse, N. Y, which town happened to be one of the east ern centers of the slave-runnning xroup, and also one of the places where the Abolitionists ran into serious competition. Her four chief characters are remarkably well done-Maha1a North and her father, who buy Syracuse tav- ern for use as a depot on the Un- derground Railroad; John Palfrey who is a politically minded young Syracuse politician fighting the Abolitionists, and Dallas Ord, : Southern and a gentleman, whe is one of the slave runners, nev' ertheless.

LA PRESNA

La Presna of Buenos Aires is not only one of the greatest newspapers of the Argentine, 1t is one of the truly great newspapers of the world An ornament of free journalism everywhere, it has long been regarded by Argentinians as a great national institution, so much so in fact, that it was La Presna's great ri- val, La Nacion which recently propos- ed that the Seventy-fifth anniversary of La Presna be made the occasion of national celebration. La PreSna, of course, was thorn Tn the side of the Far rell regime, and accordingly, govern ment decree has been issued sispending La Presna for five days.
 The action shows far more fear than temerity The men who actually pull the strings in Argentina did not dare tell the truth about the suspension. They said that La Presna had been criti- cal of the way the Buenos Aires hospi- talS have operated The real reason, of course, is that there is no place for a free press in a totalitarian dictatorship such as now exists in Argentina. Here is another demonstration that Farrell and the crew behind him represent in this hemisphere precisely the same noxious forces that we are fighting in Europe and Asia. We can have no traffic with those forces only to our own ultimate hurt. That pestilential regime must be completely quarantined by all decent governments of this hemisphere and the world if the plague is not to spread Washington Post)

 There will be bad news with the good, reverses and heartaches along with the successes.
 No matter what happens, we must continue. We must keep the initiative in this battle against the aggressor nations. Nazi defeat is sure, in time, but that does not mean it will be easy. No-it will not be easy, but terrically hard and bit ter.
