Thousands Of Stroy Dogs Hunt
Food Here, Citizen Group Saws

Thousands Of stray dogs are

charged last night in resolution
calling for strict enforcement of the

The group also urged establish
ment of horse-meat markets to pro-

to live. Even the supply OF gar
bage "is becoming scarce" it was
Said, and the OPA was blamed in
part for the shortage Of dog food
At least 10000 dogs would benefit
from provision of horse-meat, A. D
Calvert, president, estimated.
The group called for prompt en-
forcement of the licensing act on
all dogs. They also voted to support
the pending antirabies innoculation
bill. William H. Lowder, member
asserted "dogs frequently are shot

Keep the Pacific Islands

WHEN the U. S. Marines planted
W the American flag on Two Jima,
and an alert photographer made a
picture of the event that is already
as well known and will probably be
as long remembered as the famous
minute man of Concord, they thought
they were putting it there to STAY.
All of the American people, in
fact, haze been taking it for granted
that all of the Pacific islands We are
taking aWay from the Japanese are
automatically and indisputably be.
coming AMERICAN islands.
The only possible exceptions
which the American people might be
in mood to consider would be those
Pacific islands over which Allied ma
tions had sovereignty before the war
and lost it to the Japanese in the
early part of the war such as
Tarawa, which was recovered from
the japanese by the American ma
rines, but over which the British flag
was subsequently restored.
RUT in the case of Pacific islands
- of japanese ownership or man
date-the Marshalls, the Carolinas,
the Marianas, the Volcano group, the
Ryuku chain, etc. - there should
surely be no more question about
permanent American occupancy than
there will be about total American
conquest.
This is not because the United
States aspires to territorial aggran
dizement from the Pacific war.
The United States would not be
greatly enriched by possession of any
of these islands.
Economically, most of them will
be liabilities.
It is for our permanent SECUR-
ITY that permanent American pos
session of them is desirable.
These islands were the air and
naval bases from which Japan
launched its attack upon the United
States.

The Chinese who keeping their chins up help

in taking the territory which Japan will be forced to
vaeate.-
And the Latin Americans, who have for long been
from Europe by the Monroe Doctrine wonder why
they should involve themselves in quarre in which they
have no interest.

They were armed and fortified by
the Japanese.
They made POSSIBLE the Japa-
nese war against us.
They were responsible for our
loss of the Philippines and of Guam
and Wake.
They were the springboard for
the assault on Pearl Harbor.
They supplied and supported the
japanese conquest of the entire
southwest Pacific, up to the very
shores of Australia.
THE only way we can ever
l. REMOVE this menace is to
POSSESS the islands which have
constituted so grave menace to us.
We should make them AMERI-
CAN naval and air bases, for the
permanent PROTECTION of
America.
Of course we are not going to
allow them to revert to japanese
ownership.
But that is not the only danger
they pose.
While official quarters in Wash
ington are strangely and ominously
silent about the future control of
these Pacific islands, other quarters
are neither silent nor inactive.
The INTERNATIONALISTS in
Washington are already talking
about international trusteeship"
for them, and are openly suggesting
that the United Nations Conference
in San Francisco should set up the
structure for their control.
If ever there was warrant for
unilateral action, the United States
has such warrant in the Pacific
islands.
This is not the business of any
other nation
It is no part of the business of
the San Francisco Conference.
The United States should raise
the American flag over all the former
japanese islands in the Pacific, as
the marines did at Two Jima, and
KEEP it over them.
