Certainly. lease-lend would be a
strange and unrealistic peacetime
way of doing business, but as long as
our enemies remain to be beaten. 1t
will be one Of the wars most effec-
tive and most indispensable weapons.
Whether Its operations will be scaled
down when the Nazis are defeated
remains to be seen. but there can be
no doubt, on the strength Of what
the President says. that it will be
done away with altogether as soon
as both Germany and Japan are
knocked out. When that time comes,
such program will no longer be
necessary and the world will pre-
sumably return to more orthodox,
methods OF borrowing and lending
and buying and selling. Meanwhile,
lease-lend will continue to play it's
monumental role. winning a place
for itself in history as one of the
great and decisive factors insuring
our Allied victory.

Time Limit for Leuse-Lend

In view of the Presidents report to
Congress on the subject, there no
longer seems any ground for the
recent crop Of stories about plans to
carry on lease-lend operations in the
peace period. Such operations, says
Mr.. Roosevelt, should end with the
defeat of Germany and Japan-a
time limit that follows logically from
the fact that this program of mutual
aid is specifically described by law
as a defense measure, and not as
something operable under nonwar
conditions.
AS of last June 80. according to
the President, the United States had
made total lease-lend commitments
OF about 500. 900 900 900. OF which the
British Commonwealth received more
than s12,0OOO00.OO0 In delivered
goods, exclusive Of services fur
nished. In return for this, under
reverse lease-lend, we received sub
stantial aid from our Allies, the Brit
ish share amounting to $3.348, 900 900
in both goods and services. As far
as money goes, of course. the Ameri-
can outlay in these reciprocal opera
tions has been much greater than
that of the other United Nations, but,
as Mr.. Roosevelt declares. monetary
figures cannot accurately measure
the value Of the help exchanged. for

Judge who was not bothered by
precedent in his efforts to admin
lister justice.
Throughout his long service as
baseball's supreme ruler, Judge
Lands continued to administer JUS
tice as he saw it, without regard for
the eminence Of the parties con-
terned. He let Alabama" Pitts,
former convict, have his chance in
organized baseball-but there was
no mercy for offenders against the
probity Of the game itself. Baseball

The death of Kenesaw Mountain
Lands takes away figure who had
become as much a part of baseball
as third base. For nearly a quarter
of century "the Judge" ruled the
national pastime, and, while an oc-
casional edict stirred the fires of
rebellion among club owners, dis
cretion always managed to triumph,
and the invariable end was new
contract for the high commissioner,
whose $65,000 salary almost equaled
that of the President of the United
States.
Judge Lands came 10 baseball
when the multimillion dollar indus
try faced an uncertain future be-
cause of the scandal which ulti-
mately brought about the banish-
ment of eight members of the Chi
cago White Sox for throwing games
in the 1919 World Series. Before
that time there had been some agi-
tation for appointment of an over
lord as result of dissatisfaction
with the administration of baseballs
affairs by the old National Commits
sion, but opposition proved too
strong. The 1920 disclosures, how
ever, threatening to give the game
a permanent black eye, moved the
club owners to act, and Judge Lands
was brought into the picture.
To baseball Judge Lands carried
the prestige of a reputation built
up in the fifteen years he had served
in Federal District Court in Chicago.
The general public knew him best
because of a $29, ,O00, 900 fine he had
levied against Standard Oil Of In

The Base Burner

Come November. the base burner
is installed in many farm and village
living rooms. Since last May the
parlor stove has been sitting in a
corner Of the back kitchen or the
woodshed, covered with old blankets
and patchwork quilts. But now that
winter is sharpening his knife and
frost lies white on meadow, field and
corn stubble, the base burner comes
into its own again.
Since prehistoric eras, man has
wanted to get close to a fire when
darkness settles. That is why human
beings insist on fireplaces in modern,
oil-heated homes. But a fireplace is
not very practical; base burners con-
tinue their heat-giving way because
they serve purpose. II the stove is
set out from the wall a reasonable
distance. the family can gather
around it. Father reads the daily
paper and goes through the agricul-
tural journals; 1t would not be right
If the old Morris chair was not in
just the spot he wants it. Mother
rocks slowly back and forth, doing
the family mending-a task that
year after year never seems to be
completed. The young folks sit at a
small table and do their homework.
The base burner has another pur-
pose. Etiquette authorities would
not approve, but when nine o'clock
rolls around and the apples. cookies
and perhaps an odd piece Of pie or
cake have served their purpose for
a bedtime snack. the big stove makes
q very comfortable corner in which
to undress before making that des-
perate dash through the cold air Of
the stairway and upper hall to bed.
No one knows who invented the
base burner. But the tall, capacious,
nickel el-plated stove has done its duty
well. The good housewife keeps it
cleaning. And in the evening, as the
orange-red flames from the chunks
OF solid maple, oak and hickory shine
through the ising-glass door. many q

and dreamed dreams Of the beckon-
Ing highway Of LIE.

we are Of the earth-earthy; we seem
not to realize that We also are Of the
spirit eternal. Our vocabulary Is not
palace speech, but prison talk, re-
stricted to dieting, reducing, calories,
vitamins, rations, etc.
Then there Is the prison house Of
our fears. We live in dread; we exist
In fear. The though Of disease, Of
want, OF old age. Of despair, Of death
and q thousand other little fears,
destroys our peace and composure.
Our phobias are legion. They cloud
our day; they harass US. And yet
the spirit can emancipate Us. Take.
for instance, the fear Of the years
and Of old age. Victor Hugo once
told q friend that he would rather
be so than 40 years Of age. "Why7"
asked the astonished friend. Forty"
said the novelist, "is the old age Of
youth, so Is the youth Of old age"
Such q spirit kills the anguish that
the first white hair brings. Harriet
Beecher Stowe, in reply to con-
gratulatory note received on her s2d
birthday, said: "The longer drink
of the cup Of life, the sweeter 1t
tastes, the sugar is all at the bottom"

The Roman government imprisoned
the body OF John, but 1t could not
subdue his spirit. The upward look
enabled him to see coming kingdom,
q new world-a warless, sinless, tear
less, deathless world. Living for the
timeless, his prison became a vantage
point and he saw the city Of God
wherein dwelleth righteousness and
the Tree Of Life, the leaves Of which
were for the healing Of the nations.
Providence still is able and willing
to prepare a table for us in the
presence of our enemies.
With the Psalmist we can say: TN
the day of my trouble I will call upon
Thee: for Thou wilt answer me. For
great is Thy mercy toward me; and
Thou hast delivered my soul from
prison. will praise Thee, o Lord My
God, with all my heart; and I will

Prison or Palace
By The Req. Henry B. Woodtng,
Minister OF lexington Presbyterian Church.

No one today would speak aloud Of
spending an enforced stay in Sing
Sing. Yet John the Beloved heralded
1t abroad In the yesterdays that he
was In Patmos, and Patmos was the
Alcatraz Of the ancient world. It was
q barren, forsaken island In the
Aegean Sea, unfrequented save for
the contingents Of political and civil
offenders exiled there. It was the
place Of forgotten men, who were
compelled to toll through the hours
OF daylight In the darkness Of the
mines.
John the Venerable was sent there
for conscience sake and for his testi-
mony to the Word Of God. In his
last treatise he gloriously writes: II
was on the Island of Patmos and I
was In the spirit" The uplook sur
passed the outlook: the spirit enabled
him to transform a prison into q
palace: the unseen and eternal
triumphed over the seen and the
temporal.
We OF today do not have to travel
to the Aegean or turn the page of
ancient history to experience Patmos.
We meet that experience here in
America. It has It's counterpart in
the moral world. In fact, our bodies
may become our prison house. The
language OF the many tells us that
they are the prisoners of the flesh
and Of the body. Study the replies
to friendly greetings and note how
invariably they have to do with some
captivity Of bodily ailment, and these
are but few Of the prison bars. How
strongly anatomically minded we are
In our thinking! How gladly and
with what alacrtiy we mention our
ills to others. We speak little Of the
spirit, the Joy of our life, the zest Of
living. the grandeur Of our day, the
brightness of our path. We speak less
OF simple trust in an overshadowing
Providence, the unfailing goodness
and mercy that follows US through
sunshine and storm. We know that

CONSUMPTION Riots

Inc great majority OF Americans,
firmly believing that war calls for
equality Of sacrifice without regard
to individual desires, contemplates
with great astonishment and no
sympathy the activities OF that
Canadian minority which is in
almost open revolt against Canada's
newly-adopted policy OF compulsory
overseas service.
In the United States the principle
Of compulsory service on q strictly
nondiscriminatory basis is accepted
without, question. Not even the
harshest critic of this Governments
war policies would suggest for a mo-
ment that able-bodied young men
should be permitted to enjoy the
security Of "home guard" service on
this side Of the Atlantic while volun-
teer units on Europe's battlehelds
are in desperate need of replace
ments. Yet that is the basis on
which Canada, until few days ago,
had been conducting its military
effort through five years of war.
This policy was modified by Prime
Minister Mackenzie King as a mat
ter OF sheer military necessity, yet
his announced intent to conscript
$4,000 men for overseas service has
provoked violent reaction. In British
Columbia nearly 1000 of the "home
defense" soldiers paraded in protest
against the decision, shouting down
with conscription,' and allegedly
attacking officers who tried to break
up the demonstration. Other dis
orders have occurred in the Province
OF Quebec and there have been seri-
Gus defections from Prime Minister
Kings government in Parliament.
To us, this is indicative of a state
OF mind which is almost beyond COM
prehension, yet 1t is not without
precedent in our own experience.
Eighty-one years ago. in the black
summer of 1868, our Civil War Gov
eminent inaugurated conscription in
the States adhering to the Union.
But that statute was a far cry from
our present-day selective service
law. Those who could furnish a
substitute or who could pay $500 were
exempted from the draft, and this
discriminatory aspect aroused bitter
resentment. Minor riots occurred
in Vermont, Ohio, Massachusetts, and
New Hampshire. Then came the
real explosion on July 13, 1868, when
the drawing Of lots began in New
York City. Angry mobs poured into
the streets, overpowered the police
and burned and looted almost at will.
For four days the rioters held the
city in a state of siege, and when
order finally was restored by regular
troops more than thousand casual
ties had been counted and approxi-
mately $1,50o,000 worth of property
destroyed.
That was shameful chapter in
our history, but, happily, it is one
which has been magnif1cently lived
down. AS Canada faces a similar
crisis, we can only hope that she will
experience no more lasting injury,

Giunt Bombers and japan

The official communicates have
not yet revealed what brought down
the two Super Fortresses missing
from the great and historic attack
on Tokyo the other day, but the
chances are that the loss-Which
was apparently small in relation to
the number of B-29s involved-re-
suited from operational accidents or
antiaircraft fire rather than from
tnterception by Japanese fighter
planes.
All accounts seem agreed that the
opposition was surprisingly light,
with the ack-ack generally ineffec-
tive and with few enemy fighters
being able to get up in time to
come anywhere near our high-flying
raiders, so that it is quite possible
that the two lost were not the vic
TINS of enemy action. Whether they
were or not, however-and later re-
ports will probably clarity the
point-it remains a fact that the
Japanese have so far failed to dem
onstrate any impressive defensive
methods against the B-29s.
Actually, not until few days be-
fore the Tokyo attack had any Super
Fortresses been reported lost to
direct combat action by interceptors.
The losses occurred when enemy
fighters succeeded in shooting down
two or possibly three of the giant
bombers striking against Omura.
Until then-when their intrepidity
cost them 20 planes definitely de-
stroyed, 19 probably destroyed and
% damaged-Japanese pilots kept at
safe distance, apparently regard
ing it as more or less suicidal to
come within range of B-29 fire
power.
Authoritative reports indicate that
the Omura battle-the heaviest yet
fought by our Super Fortresses-re-
vealed no change in the enemy's
fighting technique, no improvement
in his planes and no unexpected
defensive weakness in the B-29s. 1t
may we'll be, of course, that Japan
will be able eventually to make the
going much hotter for these might
lest of the worlds bombers, but for
the present at least they appear to
be pretty much the masters of what
ever section of the sky they choose
for travel-a fact dramatically con-
flrmed by what they have Just ex-
perienced in their first appearance
over Tokyo.
This challenge grows steadily
greater, and Japan must do its best
to meet it. But that best-up to
now, at any rate-has not been
nearly good enough, and when we
consider that another American
bomber as formidable as the Super
Fortress-the B-32-is in production
and may be brought into action at
any moment, we can appreciate how
the Tokyo war lords must feel, par
ticularly now that the bombs have
begun to fall in earnest even on the
imperial capital.
From every point of the compass
the homeland of Japan is thus men,
aced by the ever-growing, ever
hardening fist of our air power, and
one of these days there will be dupli-
Gated out there the same kind of
pulverization as has wrecked the
greatest of German industrial cities.
OF all their worries, it is doubtful
that anything worries the Japanese
more than this.
