EDITORIAL
SLOW POISON
By Henry Hoke

For ten long years. the minds of the people
Of America have been softened by printed and
spoken propaganda In 1884, the German gov
ernment started its flood of mailed poison from
Germany to prepare the way for keeping us
unprepared. Gradually the flood increased in
quantity and scope. There attacks against
each segment or phase of American life. Soon
German-controlled agencies in this country
were working the printing presses overtime
grinding out the new type of pre-military poi
SON. German money then supported native
Observation-Disclosures as well organizations
who helped by rephrasing and reprinting the
disruptiye ideas from abroad. German agents
even succeeded in having their mental poison
inserted into the Congressional Record and
mailed under free Congressional frank.
Did December 7th, lo4l mark the end Of
this campaign of words1 Far from It'll The Ger
man agencies were closed, of course. The
franking racket was smashed by exposure and
convictions The mail from abroad was cut off.
But the seeds carefully planted in the minds
of the native Fascists have borne fruit for their
Nazi planters The native Hitler-helpers have
grown stronger and more numerous. And bold
erl Lack of action on the part of our Depart:
rnent of Justice (conscientiously trying to pro-
tect freedom of speech) has encouraged the
hate-spreaders to use even more violent words
in the mail. Hate the Governments! Hate MI
noritiesl Hate our Alliesl
The mails are still being flooded with con-
fusion-a confusion which originated IN Berlin
back in 1884. This black mail is strong and
terrifying enemy. Much of it travels under the
euise of normal political dispute. We must all
learnt to identify and distinguish between Cd
truth (2) normal dispute, 90 intolerance and
(4) planned disruption. If we do not, our boys
will not win what they are fighting for. We will
lose the peace.

RULERS NOT SERVANTS OF THE PEG.
PIE: THE GERMAN GENERAL STAFF
By Major George Fielding Eliot

The general staff of the United States
Army is a group of officers specially trained
for staff duties, but detailed to them only
temporarily Gin time of peace, more than
four years at stretch) These officers
part of an army created by law, and subject to
the provisions of law: law of whose basic
principles is that the military must always be
subordinate to the civil power.
The German general staff is something
quite different 1t is a self-perpetuating insti-
tuition which owes no allegiance al
legiance to its own idea Of what constitutes
authority in the state. 1t once subject to
the orders of the German Emperor. 1t is now
subject only to itself, except as control may be
enforced upon it by the gangster infiltrations
of Hitler or Himmler It-is not the executor
of policy, it is the maker of policy-policy not
only military, but political and economic. 1t
has but one object: that the German nation.
under its direction shall rule the world. In the
accomplishment of that object, war and peace
are but successive incidents. If this institution
is permitted to survive. in any form, above
ground or underground, and under any. dis

Often in our lives our duties require US
TO take action from which cannot hope that
any personal benefit will accrue. For example.
we can think Of many heroic and unselfish acts
which one must perform in the line or duty
but from which personal gain can be ex-
pected There are, however, many cases IN
which the performance of duty clearly
brings to as personal benefits. | can think of
mo better example of this than the investment
of our money in War Bonds.
Why2 First let us take the matter OF duty.
1t costs money, and lot of it, to carry on
modern war. Most of US would be astounded
if we knew the great amount spent by the
Government every minute OF the day and
might of this war There is simply not enough
money in the United States Treasury to see it
through 1t has got to be financed on some
sound basis or we will lose the war. There
fore it is our duty as soldiers and citizens, who
expect to reap the benefits of this war. to
give what assistance we can in helping to II
nance it. The best that we can help IN this
respect is to buy War Bonds and Stamps. That
rs our duty.
Every cent of capital and income which is
not needed for other necessary purposes should
be invested in War Bonds because, from a self
ish point Of view, this is better than having
money in the bank We will receive larger
percent of interest and our money is just as
safe as the Government itself. From the day
you buy War Bond it begins to pay interest
Nt is absolutely silly for soldiers and civilians
Ito spend foolishly the money they do not need
for necessities. When this war is over, there may
follow depression which is usually the case
after wars In any case, it will be very COM
forting then for all of us to have something
saved up to help start new lives. 1t any
thing should happen in your personal lives
that requires ready cash, these War Bonds are
lust as good as cash and the Government will
give you cash for them plus the interest that
has accrued.
Major Lynch and his committee have ar
ranged for an excellent program to raise our
share in this War Bond Drive, but this pro-
gram will not be of any value unless you, as
individuals support IL and participate in It,
Sure, it is fine to go to rallies and feel the
thrill of patriotism, listen to the band, and buy
a twenty-five cent chance on $Z5.O0 War
Bond-but you have got to dig deeper in your
pockets and hearts in order to raise the 5 5O,-
600 set as our goal Go ahead-take chance
on reducing your spending budget. If you
make it too small, you can still get your money
back if and when you want it.
| expect the soldiers and civilians of this
Post to invest reasonable part of their pay
IN this War Bond Drive. Certainly it can be
expected that we over here will invest our
extra money in War Bonds if our buddies over
seas are putting up their lives in an investment
for u.s. Ii they, can afford to OFFER their
LIVES, we can afford to LEND our MONEY.
