PET DOG KILLS BABY GIRL

From Los Angeles, Calf, comes the
news that a 21-month-Old baby girl was
recently killed by pet bulldog which
seized the child by the back of the neck
and, before the mother and grandfather
could loosen the dogs grip, the child was
dead
The little child, it was said, attempted
=; 10 stroke the dogs back when it suddenly
turned and clamped its jaws on her. The
case is somewhat unusual, in that the dog
belonged to the family and presumably,
was acquainted with the child.
g. Sometimes dogs have been known to
attack strange children, especially if they
sbecome involved in rough play with jllve-
~Rle member of the family to which the dog
belongs While most dogs are gentle and
most children are safe when playing, with
family pets, the California tragedy calls at
tentiOn to instances where, for unknown
reasons. dogs bite and maui and sometimes
kill little children.
This does not require, of course, that
all families get rid of their pet CANNES, but
Il cautions all those who own dogs to be
alert to discover any evidence of vicious
ness in order to prevent the least chance Of
such an unfortunate tragedy.

SHORT AT ITS LONGEST

We were talking about Key Wester,
who had committed suicide when this re-
mark was made, "Why should we harbor
hatred when we are sure that death is to
come to us?"
Yes, and it may be added, Why should
we do a dozen and one other things, prac-
tice chicanery, for instance?
And just at present that double-faced
"art'' is being practised by several groups
OF Key Westers, each working against the
other It is the game" that is called poll
ties, which has been characterized as dirty.
And you may be sure politics is dirty.
Bill Blank will pat you affectionately
on the shoulder, as patting is being done at
present, while he is sharpening his dirk to
drive it TO the hilt in your back, metaphor
ically speaking.
This politician thinks he has many
friends, and probably he has, but he has
good many enemies too, and they are try
ng to get" him. Another politician con-
5iders himself as ore of the most popular
nen in town and that may be true, but
he dirk IS being sharpened for him also.
Something. is likely to break real

lay, and, judging from the whispers here

lenrue,,

s}9rprisiilg to hear that it is packed full of
eceit, but how about those Of us in other
ealings il life? Don't we act also as if we
t2lo never going to die? Don't we try to
get he better OF the other fellow, even
going to the extent of saying something
about him that is not true?
We would have a far better world if

q A FITTING ANSWER

Some idea of what it takes to discover
"a new oil field and bring it into production
rs told in news accounts of eight American
oil companies in Colombia, South America.
r One company spent $457000 just in
aaerial mapping, gravity meter, seismograph
land other geophysical and surface geology
before putting in test we'll Another COM
-pgny estimates its cost of testing at $780,,
900 After the oil has been discovered and
brought to the surface it must be transport
ed Ga market. In the case OF the Columbia
explorations, most of the search for oil is
sbeing conducted in remote sections, requir-
ing the construction of costly roads through
hundreds of miles of trackless Jungle to
'move i'm drilling machinery, and the con-
-struction of hundreds of miles of pipeline
TO get the oil out. In one area 625-mile
-pipeline may be needed which would cross
the foothills of the Andes at an elevation
gof $500 feet. Its cost would probably be
N the neighborhood of S15, 100000.
And yet when the oil reaches the con-
sumner, il retails for few cents a gallon!
! anyone questions the value to the nation
Of efficiently operated, competitive private
industry, these figures provide a fitting
answer.

GOOD NEWS FROM CHINA

The destruction and evacuation of
American air bases in China, under pres
sure Of the Japanese campaign in that
country, has led many Americans to the
conclusion that the eremy is making con-
siderable progress on the continent.
Because of this fact, it is interesting to
report that 1t. Gen. Albert C. Wedemeyer,
commander of American forces in China
says that "Japan's overall position is I'M
favorable" and the enemy position on the
mainland is deteriorating rapidly.
Something of sim lar judgment
comes from Gen. Sir Claude Auchinleck
British commander-in-chief in India, who
recently told the Indian legislature at New
Delhi that the enemy was con the run
in Burma and facing reverses in the inte-
rior OF China.

SAVING AMERICAN LIVES


In discussing the fruits" of Lend
Lease, Secretary of War Henry L. Stimson
discloses that the United Statse has equip
ped or supported in varying degrees of
completeness ,4,76O,OOO troops of the AL
lied armies.
Mr., Stimson points out that the coun-
Try has done this with an expenditure of
only Is percent Of our total munitions pro-
duction." The figure seems to indicate that
without Lend-Lease there would be sew
eral million fewer troops in the Allied
armies, now engaged in the decisive phase
Of the struggle against Germany.
If this were the case, the United States
would have to form larger armies if the
Axis is to be overthrown.

GIVE IT NOW

There's Cross of Red that spans the world,
With a mercy none can compare;
It's our own Red Cross of America,
And the angel of men everywhere.
If there's war or flood, or famine's fear,
Our Red Cross is always right there
To seek the suffering, aid those in want,
And show there is someone to care.
Wherever the place, whatever the time,
In heat OF in cold, in snow or in raln
Whatever the need, no matter the cost,
There's never plea goes forth in vain.
On battlefields far or in prison camp,
They are standing by with every aid,
For your boy and mine who need it SO,
And will, until peace has been made.
Your boy and mine and the great Red Cross,
Are all keeping faith with us out there;
But are we at home doing all we can?
Are we honestly doing our share?
sHave you and dug down in our jeans,
Have we given more than we can?
Let us get behind the fighting line,
Give it NOW for our fighting man.
