ABUSE IS NOT AN ARGUMENT

{ S .t.a
Abuse is not an argument. That is a
timeworn statement, and its truth has been
established by time, yet many of us for
get that circumstance and assume the atti-
tude that the more we malign a person the
more forceful is our argument.
A few days ago The Citizen received
reprint of an editorial that attacked
Governor Caldwell because of his insis-
tence in fattening still more the states
surplus bankroll at the expense of the tax
payers.
There was sufficient room in the
charge for the writer to prove his case
calmly by adding fact upon fact, but he
begins his article by declaring:
''The greatest tax hog that has gov
erned the State of Florida since this writer
came here 33 years ago is Governor Willard
F. Caldwell"
Denouncing him as "tax hog" i'm
| plies that he intends to nuzzle into gov
ernmental pap, which everybody who
knows Governor Caldwell is aware is not
| true. He will not profit by an increase sur
plus, and he has stated he has in mind post
war projects that the state intends to I'M
dertake.
The Citizen believes that there was no
necessity, in almost all cases, to increase
the tax burden in Florida, because the pub
lies pocketbook undoubtedly will become
leaner and leaner as the wartime boom
decreases, resulting in the tax burden be-
coming more acute when there is no longer
"easy money! But because that is the
Citizens attitude, it would not resort to
abuse in striving to maintain it.
Besides, as we read the article, the
more we read the more confident we felt
that it was propaganda against a certain
matter that the governor has favored
Briefly, the writer mentions some of the in
creased taxes, then devotes the remainder
of the article to opposing something that
the governor views with favor
1t was said of Lincoln, particularly
during his debates with Douglas, that he
admitted the truths of so many things his
opponent said there appeared little oppor-
tunity for his driving home what he wished
to say and, thereby gain his point. But he
always did, and, while he was leading up
to bis climax, he spoke of his opponent in
kindly vein, because Lincoln was one of
the many thousands who have said, abuse
is not argument"

SPRINGBOARD TO JAPAN

1t was with the battle for Okinawa in
mind that Tokyo spokesman told the Jap
anese people day or two ago that the out
come of imminent developments will de-
eide the rise or fall of our country for CEN
turtles to come" This is statement ap-
proximating truth.
1t is also one which deepens the sig
nlficance of this campaign and which
causes hope to rise as bitter opposition is
overcome and conquest of the island be-
comes an accomplished fact
"a, a. With the capture OF, Okinawa's superb
Naha airfield and Chinen Peninsula and
the compressing of remaining Japanese
forces into a limited area on the southern
end of the island, this campaign, after two
and one-half months of hard fighting, en-
tiers its final phase. As the military situa-
ton exists at present with American troops
holding all advantages, there seem to be
no serious obstacles to swift completion of
the task. 1t is easy to explain why the cam
paign has been one of extraordinary diff
Guilty. why the losses have been heavy, WHY
the foe has fought desperately to the end.
The explanation is found in General
MacArthur's statement of his conviction
that Japan will not learn from the lesson
of Germany, that it will not, sensing the
lnevitability of defeat surrender while it
is still possible to salvage something from
the wreckage. Japan, in the opinion of
General Macarthur, will quit only when
the main islands have been invaded. cities
have been destroyed and her economy and
military government have been brought
down in ruins.
Okinawa is an important stepping
stone on long, hard road And when the
final objective is in sight the road will be-
come more difficult and the price of prog
ress higher. The rough terrain of Kyushu.
Shikoku and Honshu, defended by Japan's
unused reserve of 100000 soldiers. will
present to American arms the most exact
ing test they have ever encountered on any
field of battle

L needed. Maud ran the house
beautifully and the children were
entirely independent with their
own concerns, their own plans
She had been the charming visi-
tor who came to dinner every
night but she did not know them
intimately. Cynthia told herselt
this with a wry smile but it was
the truth and left her at loose
ends when she stayed at home.
So why should she?
There were other things she
could do. For one, she bought a
flock of gay prints and organzas
though it was so late in the sea-
son and in spite of the huge bills
of the former month. She had
spent so much time in street
clothes that now she lost her head
completely with the help of a
saleswoman anxious to thin her
stock.
Madame is so very slender.
She can wear the very young
frocks. Even fourteen is a little

fourteen is young enough. The
seams can be taken up" i"e4a1
"But it is not the age, only the
size that is fourteen" Numbered
the woman, tactless, and Cynthia
murmured. "Oh," Debated.
She had never cared about
looking young until now. She
hadn't given youth a thought as
it slipped away from her and if it
had fingered longer than with
other women she knew. she had
not been unduly elated about it.
But now she wanted pretty things
and got them, too. The fitting
room mirrors were flattering and
somebody called her miss"
Vera was at home when the
boxes came. "Trousseau?" There
was a bite IN her voice that didn't
belong there.
