An Appeal For
Your Help

We know that Wyandotte has been most
generous IN contributing blood to the Blood
Bank for its boys and girls in Service Now
our Blood Bank at home needs replenishing.
Our Blood Bank at our city hospital.
the Wyandotte General Hospital, needs
building up. There have been many lives
that have been saved, many patients who
have benefited by blood transfusions dur
ing this winter, and while it is requested
that each TRANSMISSION be paid for with the
blood of a relative or friend, that is not
always possible. Consequently, the MANY
Withdrawals have brought our Blood Bank
low. ~
One need only to watch the life flow
back into sick mother F.. an injured
brother 3. or friend to marvel that
pint of our blood can actually be the turn
ing point in their recovery.
We feel that bringing this need to your
attention will meet with a generous res
ponse from all who are physically able to
contribute. 1t is our safeguard to know that
In case of illness or sudden accident to one
Of our loved ones, our Blood Bank can be
called on at any time to meet the emer-
gency.

Only The Strong
Can Be Free"

before the war, favorite topic of dis
cuSSlon was the danger involved when gov
eminent lived beyond its income. In those
days, billion-dollar-deficit in the Federal
budget brought cries of alarm from every
corner OF the nation. A thirty or FORTY
billion-dollar Federal debt was considered
ominouSly big. Now we have a debt manv
times that, and the annual deficit is breath
taking fifty or sixty billion Yet, few even
bother mentioning it, and fewer still ex-
press alarm. However, this should delude
no one into believing that the fears of for
mer days were groundleSS.
Figures now show that bank deposits,
notes in circulation and public debt in the
United States, have far outstripped similar
flgures for France and Belgium, from the
STANDPOINT Of percentage increases during
the war. We think of France and Belgium
as on the verge of financial collapse. So
where does that leave us?
The things that can save this country
from the financial plight of Europe are
natural resources and great productive
capacity. The combination of these two can
develop enough commerce, enough jobs, and
~AooSAA t1iOOlIIS W support great DEBT. But
we must not forget that, while our wealth
IN the form of natural resources is an act
OF providence, the tools to exploit those re-
sources were developed by enterprising
men. The industries of oil, power mining
transportation, and farming, as we know
them in this country, came from the work
and organization of individuals. Because
they are owned and operated by millions of
individuals, they are called private enter
prlses. AS long as they remain private en-
terprlseS, they will continue to expand and
grow in the future as they have in the past.
II given the opportunity, they will bring
new strength to America, for America is
young nation. Her people and her industries
can overcome the problems of a gigantic
war debt.
Our greatest hazard is that through fear
OF the effects of debt and initiation on prices.
we will abandon freedom in favor of per
manent strait-jacket regulation and a
planned lowered standard of living-regula-
ton that will lead to oppression, destruc-
ton OF private enterprise, and eventually
our ability to produce.
We should remember that fear can
destroy freedom. We should also remember.
now as never before, the words of a great
statesman who warned that only the strong
can be free and only the productive can
be strong

Bridging The Gap

AS the months roll by, it is obvious from
records of the American Red Cross that
home conditions and the health and well
fare of their families are still of paramount
importance to the men and women on over
seas duty.
Men can fight the enemy, physical dis
comforts, fatigue and illness, but they can't
fight off the haunting fears that aSsail them
when things are not going right at home
lilies away, unable to get home to evalu-
ate situations for themselves, CT Joe and
Officer Tom or Harry are equally terrified
when day after day goes by and there is no
word concerning the birth of an expected
son or daughter. Bridging this gap between
home and the fighting line is your organiza-
tion-the American Red CroSS-ready to
lend a helping hand wherever it is needed.
The American Red Cross field director
with troops in the field works through local
Red Cross chapter Home Service workers
visiting families throughout the United
States on sbehaf of servicemen overseas.
And every day, overseas, Red Cross field
directors are able to set the minds of anxious
o, worried boys at rest through reports and
messages sent them by these Home Service
workers.
Your dollars, dimes and pennies keep
all Red Cross services and supplies at the
side Of those who need them. Support the
Red Cross War Fund.- You are the American

Swapping Freedom
For Groceries

Reports indicate that consumer-labor
groups are bringing organized pressure to
bear in favor af frightened price and ration
ing control If this is the result of patriotic
concern for the war effort, no fault can be
found, but there are ample grounds for
suspecting that furthering the cause of vic
tory Is not the major factor in such pres
sure group maneuvering. Apparently it is
an attempt to escape the squeeze of infla-
ton by turning 10 increasingly stringent
government regulation. If this process was
occurring in peacetime, these groups would
be guilty of attempting to barter away the
peoples freedom for bag of groceries,
swap that history has demonstrated can
not be made.
After, the war, the people will have to
make up their minds to reeStablish the I'M
regulated ways of peace, regardless of tenn
porary hardship They cannot expect gov
eminent to set the price for everything they
wear and. eat, and tell the producers and
distributors how and when to operate, and
still preserve representative form of gov
eminent.
Hundreds of thousands of retail dis
tributors willingly surrendered the right to
carry on business as independent individu-
ais, because they believed they were help
ing the war effort. They did not surrender
thhat right for the convenience of any pres
sure group. When the war is over, they will
eventually demand that the management
of the distribution industry be returned to
those who bear the responsibility for its
successful operation - the store owners
themselves.
Efficiency and volume are the bywords
of every modern chain or independent mer-
chant. The high standard of living which
the country now takes for granted, depends
upon the maintenance of this volume and
this efficiency. Cumbersome centralized
regulation, carried on indefinitely, will re-
suit in less goods for the consumer, not
more, as competition is stifled and the in
centive to serve is blotted out.
Yes, we can keep freedom or we can
lose freedom, but we can't swap it for
z groceries.

Shared Confidence
Is Needed

Confidence sure and strong, is in the
resurgent air of Spring:
Confidence in our triumph on the battle
fronts, on the diplomatic front-and on the
home front.
BaSing their figures on facts submitted
by l,756 factories in 43 states, Americans
manufacturers have just reported they can
provide from 100000 to- 100000 more
jobs after reconversion than in pre-war 1889
Eight hundred eighty-one firms alone
expect to spend $600,O00,OO0 to finance the
transition from war to peace production
and 81 per cent can start on the latter
without delay.
All this depends upon favorable econ
omlc climate, to be sure. In view of the
record-breaking achievements of American
manufacturers in producing for victory, we
can understand their confidence that after
victory, they can, with encouragement, pro-
vide even more employment than before
the war.
Their confidence needs to be shared
Let us, then, all share it-Washington in
Guided!

If you think they are a dominant
factor in our Pacific war.
I say this not to belittle the B-29
boys, because they are wonderful. I
say it because they themselves want

Return Flights Give
Boys the Woollies
Their lot is a tough one. The
worst part is that they're over wa
ter every inch of the way to Japan,
every inch of the way back. And
brother, it's a lot of water. The
average time for one of their mis-
sions is more than IA hours.
The flax and fighters over ia
pan are bad enough, but that tense
period Is fairly short They are
over the empire only from 20 min
utes to an hour, depending on their
target. Jap fighters follow them
only about Is minutes off the
coast.
What gives the boys the woollies
is sweating out" those six or seven
hours Of ocean beneath them on the
way back. To make it worse, it's
usually at night.

ack and foul weather are other
things. The weather over Japan
is their best defense. As one pilot
jokingly suggested, 1.-The Nips should

night, and save both themselves
and us lots of trouble"
Almost the first thing the B-2s
boys asked me was, do the people
at home think the B-29s are going

1 told them the papers played up
the raids, and that many wishful
thinking people felt the bombings
might turn the trick. And the boys
said:
That's what we were afraid
of. Naturally we want what
credit we deserve, but our raids
certainly aren't going to win the
war"

A Neglected Chapter
Of History

Hidden away under the mountainous
Recommendation of this war are $4,000 pages
OF testimony taken in the long, meandering,
inconclusive mass trial of seditionists which
ended in Washington when the presiding
Judge died Only about 1000 pages out of
the whole vast array of words is actual
testimony by witnesses. The rest of the
palaver is what the legal fraternity calls
lawyer talk, wrangling, stalling. objection
raising, motions for this and motions against
that.
It's too bad that the facts have got
obscured by all this deliberately manufac-
tured verbal fog For there probably was
"sedition and treachery" in many of those
hearts. The evidences pointed strongly to
tie-ups and relationships that led straight
to Berlin, Germany.
The sedition cases should be brought
into court again and the issues sifted to
decision.

that word "luau," it is pronounced
'1oo-wow", with the accent on the
wow. The main course Of luau
is invariably roasted pig and this
is one time where a pig is called
pig" and not pork" Back in the
old days a roasted dog was the
main course - there are still enough
dogs or the island to make a good
feed - but modern convention has
done away with that custom, thank
goodness.
The pig is cooked In a ground
oven, which is quite complicated
affair and a lot of trouble unless
you are an old hand at it. 1t is
actually a pit lined with hot rocks
and big banana leaves. The pig and
anything else to be cooked is placed
upon this bed of steaming leaves
and another layer of leaves is used
to cover it. Earth is then thrown
over the whole works and a fire
built on top. This arrangement,
crude as it sounds, really acts like
a pressure cooker, and will reduce
any tough porker into a tender
mass Of tasty flesh. Of course, the
bones, hair. hide, skull, etc, are
easily removed once the pig is cook
ed.
A special island variety of sweet
potatoes is another necessary course.

lived through several luaus in the

then again, such immunity is to be

Dear Mr.. CAN'T:
I was certainly pleased that the
subject of these so-called garbage
men, has been brought up. Their
attitude certainly is not flattering
to the City Of Wyandotte.
How they carry the title of men"
is beyond me. They have run over
the lid of my garbage pail and
smashed the bottom Of a neighbours
recently.
Just what they expect Of us
don't know. Perhaps they think we
should be out there to assist them
with their work. If they aren't cap
able why can't the city get volun-
teers who wouldn't be destructive?

Housewife" and she has my SYM
