WE MIST NOT LOSE OUR HEADS

OF COURSE, war criminals should be punished
~ but it is possible to carry that idea too far
Congressman Cecil X. King CDem., Calif) sug,
gests that the world is waiting for The United
States Congress to use strong words on the sub
iect" :,
Mr.. King would have Uncle Sam use force, II
necessary, to compel neutral countries to sur
render war criminals to tribunals set up by the
Allies Only the most arrogant dictatorS in human
history have ever done anything like that.
After all, there is such a thing as national
sovereignty" The smallest state possesses 1t, and
the strongest state should respect it. 1t would be
much better to permit some war criminal TO eS-
cape than to have Uncle Sam make war on little
nation like Switzerland because it dared to grant
asylum to someone.
Mr.. King should remember that we did a good
deal of that sort of thing when we were young,
and the nation which attempted to take refugee
off American soil would have found itself in quite
a pickle"

DOCTORS ASKED TO BOYCOTT ALL
MEDICAL CARE PLANS

AN ORGANIZATION calling itself the Associa-
ton of American Physicians and Surgeons,
with headquarters in Indiana, has launched ma
ton-wide drive against liberalization of the Fed
eral social security system and other plans to pro-
vide more medical care for Americans.
Physicians throughout the country are being
asked to pledge they will deny medical aid to the
sick and will boycott doctors cooperating IN group
health plans - suggestion as brutal as anything
Hitler ever proposed.
letter signed by Dir. A. j. Sullivan, president
of the Association says:
Our members shall not associate profession
ally or otherwise cooperate with physicians, hos
pitfalls or other institutions that do participate in
schemes for the distribution of medical care OPP
posed by the A. A. 7. s."
Once majority of physicians take this stand,
Dr. Sullivan argues, such plans for government
medicine as the Wagner-Dingell bill would be
doomed to failure even if Congress passed them.
Refusal to cooperate combined with intimlda-
ton by boycott of physicians or hospitals wishing
to cooperate, would leave the government unable
to honor its pledge of complete medical care for
every American, DR.. Sullivan makes clear.

WOULD YOU RECALL OUR TANKS NOW?

MO ONE of us would hand a soldier bullet he
~ needed and then take it away from HIM. We 90
not send planes and tanks overseas, then ship
them back before they can 90 into battle. Yet
every time any one of US buys war bond and
cashes it in, we are stepping back from victory
as surely as if we took bullets away from soldiers
and recalled planes and tanks.
They are doing so much for us. We can do so
little for them, really We cannot be with them;
we cannot help them in their personal battles for
courage and wisdom. We cannot feed them when
they are hungry, care for them when they are
wounded But we can see that they have whatever
they need to defeat the enemy. And we can give
them the knowledge that our dollars are behind
them and that our dollars will stay behind them.
So let us hold onto our war bonds come what
may. If you cash in even one bond, YOU are cheat
ing not only yourself - since of course YOU lose
money by this - but every Allied fighting man.
We cannot, must not, cheat those men of vic
tory.

HOMEFRONT MUST BEAR DOWN

VIIlS WAR business may be a heavy burden Tor
many of us, and good news from the battle
fronts might reasonably tempt one to 'ease up.
But the boys over there are not easing up - they
are bearing down. We on the homefront must go
all the way TO victory. There are many ways to
support the war. Here are just few:
Stay right on that war-important job; CO.
operate in the salvage and conservation drives,
continue to buy all the War Bonds you can, and
especially just now support literally your Ameri-
can Red Cross. Such is the call to duty for every

COMMENT ON WORLD
EVENTS

When we read some of the hokum
in the daily papers and magazines
we wonder just what some of our
leading propagandists think this war
is all about.
Some of them seems to want us to
believe that we have sent our boys
all over the world with guns on their
shoulders and grenades in their
hands so that they can come back and
dunk some more doughnuts, eat more
hot dogs, and throw bottles at the UNI
pire.
All Of course without having Hit
ler to tell them when.
1t should be remembered that on
December 7, 1941, Jap planes just
about ruined Pearl Harbor and had
they followed up their victory there
is no telling what they would have
done to the western part of the
United States. They caught our mill
tary experts unprepared, and had
they followed up their attack we
would now be = to speak plainly =
in hell of fix.
~
Hitler, Mussolini, and Hirohito at
that time had the opportunity to give
us the dirty end of the stick, and it
was only because of their blunder
that we didn't get it.
Of course, the fact that Japan did
not follow through gave US time to
recover and start beating the living
daylights out of her, and before we
are through she will be back on her
little island sadder but wiser nation.
But let's not kid ourselves about
what we are fighting for We are
fighting to assure our people that no
nation, no matter how crazy their
military leaders might become, can
attack our people or our outposts and
get away with it. And before we are
through with them they will believe
that just as fervently as we do.
GAS we lift wartime controls we
must determine what economic func-
tions we shall assign to the govern
ment and what responsibilities shall
be retained by industries and unions
of workers. In other words, we must
decide upon the kinds and degree of
political controls that we can allocate
to the government without impair
ment Of our economic or political
freedom.
'"The same basic problem of main
tanning freedom follows our economic
and political interests into the inter
national field In our concern for Sc
curity against war and aggression,
we must not forget that our freedoms
rest on individual and political rights.
"The war will not destroy the pur
poses and practices of all-powerful
governments. We face the difficult
ties and hazards of developing a
basis of cooperation through the
United Nations organizations of ma
tions committed democratic ideals and
nations committed to government
controlled institutions.
upon this venture depends the fu
ture of freedom" William Green
in American Federationist.

turns with full equipment, officials
said.
In the Philippine invasion, in the
midst of the D-Day battle as a
beachhead was being established,
a Red Cross field director manag-
ed to get jeep, trailer and food
supplies ashore, and was handing
out coffee and cookies while snip
ers bullets still went by overhead,
officials added.
Supplies are parachuted to
American soldiers stationed in iso-
lated forward posts far removed
from Army post exchanges. Ma
tive bamboo RATS were used to
transport Red Cross supplies to
military men in group of South
Pacific islands. In the icy North,
supplies are flown in or taken by
sled to the outposts. In the hills OF
Italy, pack mules are used for
transportation. When there is alb
solutely no means of getting sup
plies transported, Red Cross men
strap heavy bundles on their back,
and hike to troops where they will
distribute their stores.
And so the story of the "Red
Cross worldwide supply line" goes
on and on, wherever our fighting
men may go. To maintain these
supply lines, the American Red
Cross War Fund committee has
had to raise its National goal of
$3.50, 900, 900, set in November, to
5000, 900, 900.

alton.
Members of the association are
requested to assemble at the resi-
dence at 3:15 p. m.
Judge Bryan was born in Ken
snsville August %, 1870. His pa
pnts were Kedar Bryan, of Samp-
son county. and the former Miss
Nancy Spicer.
He began to read for the bar in
jacksonville, studying under
Frank Thompson while serving at
the same time as deputy sheriff of
onslow county. Following this he
attended law school at the Univer-
sity of North Carolina. He received
his license and was admitted to
the bar in 1891.
After six months independent
practice in Kenansville, he came
to Wilmington in 1892 to work for
the firm headed by D. L. Russell,
prominent attorney. When Russell
was elected Governor, Judge Bry-
an Joined forces with A. G. Ricard.
When Addison Ricard left Will
mington for New York City in
1898, Judge Bryan ran the firms
office by himself briefly, then
formed another partnership, this
time with Franklin McNeill.
The departure of McNeill for
Raleigh, where he had been ap.
pointed to function as chairman of
the Corporations Commission dis
solved this combine. Judge Bryan
practiced alone until 1924, when he
took W. B. Campbell into a part
nership which lasted until 1896.
At intervals during his legal
career he held public office twice,
assuming the duties of City At
torney for two years during tho
mayoralty of Irwin Moore, and
being appointed in 1901 to occupy
tie bench of the Superior Court Of
the Eastern District of North Caro-.
lima. The latter appointment was
made by Governor Aycock to com.
plete the unexpired term of Judge
Moore.
He is survived by his widow,
who was Miss. MAZE O'Connor be-
lore her marriage On November
IS, 1900.
Judge Bryan was a member Of
the North Carolina Bar Association
and from 1896 to 1884, when b.
resigned and a member of the
cape Fear Club. He was also
member of the First Presbyterian
church.

VINS0N NAMED
FOR JONES JOB
Continued from Page One)

Wallace voiced confidence that
Vinson will render the people a
great service"
Wilson'S wage dispute with the
WLB dates back to December
when he instructed the board not
to authroize so-called fringe wage
increases without first confirming
through the Office of Price Admin
istration that no accompanying
price increases would be required.
This in effect gave OPA veto pow
er over WLB decisions and the
board baked.
The dispute held up several i'm
portant wage cases and labor lead
ers strongly condemned Vinson for
his stand.
He and the WLB now are work
ing on compromise and agree
ment may be reached before he
takes his new post. Under the COM
promise, WLB would hold it's
fringe wage awards within limits
proposed by Vinson, and he would
take over the job of determining
whether excessive price increases
would result.
Agreement might speed a de-
cision on United Mine Workers
fringe demands for shift differen-
tials, increased vacation pay and
a royalty of 10 cents a ton.
Some observers speculated that
Wilson's successor may be William
H. Davis, WLB chairman, who has
strongly opposed his stand on
fringe awards. Davis is understood
to be eager to leave the WLB. He
has offered his resignation twice
but Mr.. Roosevelt persuaded him
to stay until the end of the Euro
pean war.
Wilson'S appointment writes fin
is to the public feud between Wal
lace and Jones. 1t first flared in
1913 when the former vice presi-
dent then head of the Board of
Economic Warfare, quarreled pub
hcly with Jones over foreign eco
nornic jurisdiction. AS a result Mr.
Roosevelt removed Wallace and
abolished the BEW, but permitted
Jones to keep his jobs.
Jones, now without a Federal
post for the first time in more
than IL years, may enter private
business here.
