Keeping Spirit
Of Christmas
q g @
HENRY VAN DYKE
From "The Spirit Of ChristmaS."J

1t is a good thing to observe
Christmas day. The mere marking
Of times and seasons, when men
agree to stop work and make merry
together, is wise and wholesome
custom. 1t helps one to feel the SUI
premacy of the common life over the
individual life. 1t reminds a man
TO set his own little watch, now and
then, by the great clock of humanity
which runs on sun time.
But there is a better thing than
the observance of Christmas day,
and that is, keeping Christmas.
Are you willing to forget what
you have done for other people, and
TO remember what other people have
done for you; to ignore what the
world owes you, and to think what
you owe the world; to put your rights
in the background, and your duties
in the middle distance, and your
chances to do little more than your
duty in the foreground; to see that
your felloWmen are just as real as
you are, and to try to look behind
their faces to their hearts, hungry
for joy; to own that probably the
only good reason for your existence
is not what you are going to get out
of life, but what you are going to
give to life; TO close your book OF
complaints against the management
of the universe, and look around yoG
for a place where you can sow .
few seeds of happiness-are you will.
ing TO do these things even for a
day? Then you can keep Christmas.
Are you willing to Stoop down and
consider the needs and the desires OF
little children; to remember the
weakness and loneliness of people
who are growing old; to stop asking
how much your friends love you,
and ask yourself whether you love
them enough; to bear in mind the
things that other people have to
bear in their hearts; to try to I'm.
derstand what those who live In the
same house with you really want,
without waiting for them to tell you;
to trim your lamp so that it will
give more light and less smoke, and
to carry it in front so that your
shadow will fall behind you; to make
a grave for your ugly thoughts and
a garden for your kindly feelings,
with the gate open-are you willing
to do these things even for day?
Then you can keep Christmas.
Are you willing to believe that
love is the strongest thing in the
world-stronger than hate. stronger
than evil, stronger than death-and
that the blessed life which began in
Bethlehem 1900 years ago is the i'm.
age and brightness of the Eternal
Love? Then you can keep Christ.
mas.
And if you keep it for a day, why
not always?
But you can never keep it alone.

BraWn Takes Place of
Boar's Head on Noel

Brawn has largely been substitut

mas and New Years celebrations.
For this dish the pigs head is
soaked in salt water all night,
scraped, cleaned and the brain and
eyes removed.
1t is boiled until tender enough
to remove the bones. The meat is
picked from the bones. chopped fine,
seasoned with red and black pepper,
cloves, mace, nutmeg and salt II

JAPS' NEW TRICK

For time, carefully censored dispatches from the Pacific theatre have hinted that the Japs were making use of vaunted willingness to die for the Emperor is new and potentially dangerous manner, Now it is revealed that for time elements of our Pacific fleets have been coping with Japanese suicide planes verabe flying bombs which the pilots sought to plunge into our ships.
 Advices from Manchuria meanwhile indicate that the Japanese plan large scale production of planes of a type especially designed for these suicide missions. These craft carry more than ton of explosive in locked from the outside He does not carry para chute Soon after the take-off, the landing wheels automatically drop off In other words the craft is little more than flying bomb with human steering mechanism
 The designers of these suicide planes reportedly make certain that once pilot takes off his life is forfeit for the huge load of explosive he carries is rigged to explode if the plane any part of strikes any object The senseless BanZai" charges practiced by the Japanese infantry in many Pacific localities attest the fact that the Npponese can be melted to suicidal undertakings but in planning the so-called Kamkaze Corps the Tokyo warlords evidently desired that no opportunity be provided for turning back. Obviously man locked in plane without parachute landing wheels with ton of high explosives set ing alive If he disposed before, he there after is prone to make the enemy pay dearly as possible for his life by diving at the most valuable target in sight Reportedly air of honor attached to such proceedings, with the doomed pilot circng

the field three times and receiving the salute of the personnel of the base before he leaves on his fatal mission. Such mumbo- jumbo is entirely in keeping with race which makes fetish of self -disembowe-
 ing as a means of preserving personal honor. Whether all planes of the Kamikaze Corps are so elaboratey outfted insure the death of the pilot we do not know but apparently for some time Japa- nese plane attacks upon naval task forces have been primarily suicidal in technique This is not remarkable of course because the fighter and anti aircraft protection given prime targets such as battle ships and aircraft carriers make attempted attack by an enemy plane tantamount to suicide.
 The very fact that the War Department now per- mits discussion of the Kaikaze Corps and its results is a good indication that our naval officials are confident they able to deal with it. At first the Japs achieved good results in their land fighting by pretending to surrender with hand grenades under their armpits and similar tactics but belong long our fighters evolved cure-a cure in many instances hard on the Japanese They shot first and took no chances on suspicious moves.
 We dare say a fairly adequate remedy will be worked out for the suicide technique now being applied to aerial warfare The answer to dive bomb- Icrs and torpedo plane attack of the usual variety was evolved in the form of tremendously increased anti aircraft fire An elaboration of the present methods of protection probably will suffice to deal with the suicide fliers of Nippon.
 And meanwhile of course, the experiment is not without expense to Japan. If the reports are true that each plane and pilot are mechanically doomed from the moment of take-off, it should entail considerable upon Japans limited facilities for replacing planes and pilots especially considering the number who will be dealt with long before approaching their targets After all, unless the pilots fairly well trained they could not cope with our fighter screens. But as approach Tokyo both by land sea and air we may expect the Nipponese to place greater and greater dependence upon their fatastic disregard for life through such means

CONFERENCE CROSS CURRENTS

Greek Foreign Minister Sophino- poulos at first was considered a British puppet but surprised every one by voting against the British on Argentina He sides with Russia against Argentinas admission into the San Francisco Conference. He also helped to pass the Greek eight-hour child labor laws, later was condemned to life imprison- ment by the Metaxas Dictatorship under King George. Real ex- pert on peace machinery is Dutch Foreign Minister Eelco Van Klef- fens, who once served on the League of Nations secretariat.
 A lot of San Francisco delegates once were newspapermen, including Turkish Congressman Falih Rifki Atay, who edits "UluS" and is president of the Turkish Press As- sociation Another, Huseyin Cahit Yalcin, is editor of the newspaper "Yeni Saban."

National Planning
Cincinnati Enquirerl


 Does national planning conflict with individual initiative? Does it mean the throttling of private enterprise? These great questions. One ot the immediate difficulties is that much of the national planning has been by men who frankly state they wish to upset the American tradition and go forward with program of state ownership, of collective farming and of a system of industry with no profits
 A good many of these ideaists are open and aboveboard Communists They admire the Russian plan of society apparently overlooking the fact that plan needs an ron-fisted dictator to impose 1t upon the people Probably they are willing to provide the dictator Yet if there is thing more than an other which the American people cannot endure It IS dctation Our proverbal philosophy is that one man is as good as another So if in any way national planning smacks of Communism it will not be ac- ceptable But plans that wisely direct and suggest greater individual effort or that can open new avenues for enterprise; will be welcome. In other words we are willing to be shown, but not to be bossed. No is going to drive us And II these national planners think they can use the war emer- gency to put communistc notions they had better think again We willing to do everything to win the war but when peace comes we expect to return to normal ways.

AUSTRALIAN ROW

The two Australian delegates, though both members of the same labor government, have been row. ing with each other. Deputy Prime Minister Francis Michael Forde, Minister for the Army, has been established as head of the Aus tralian delegation, but for a time there was quite little debate as to whether he or Herbert V. Evatt, Australian Minister for External Affairs, should make the opening speech on behalf of Australia be. fore the conference. In the end he lost. Forde was an cleo trical engineer and a teacher be- fore finally entering Parliament.
 External Minister Evatt is also Attorney General and the youngest high court judge Australia has ever had. He was appointed the chief justice at the age of 36

 It, is not healthy for any nation to get out on a limb as the chief opponent of another. And real statesmanship in the State Depart ment should have steered away from these rocks during the ad- vance conference conversations. The error can be patched up. Public opinion in the United States is too sane to let the unfortunate U.SA. vs. US.S.R. clash poison our rela- tions. The goals of peace are too important. But mistakes like this are expensive and we can't afford to make any more.

 Women should benefit under this configuration which gives insight and mental poise. The month should bring much joy to many families; it is suspicious for beginnings of var ious sorts.

ROOSEVELT SITS IN MIDDLE

That rivalry continued during the Teheran Yalta Conferences, with Stalin and Churchill both trading against each other and Franklin Roosevelt sitting in the middle.
 At Teheran the argument was over a second front through the Balkans which Churchill favored, or through France, which Stalin favored Churchill wanted the Allied Armies to get into the Balkans-Russia s sphere of influ- ence-and thereby keep the Rus sians out. He didn't want Allied Armies ruining factories and alie- mating the population of Western Europe-which was to be Britain s sphere of influence.
 In the end, Roosevelt tipped the scales in favor of Stalin-toward a second front through France.
 Once at Teheran, Churchill, try ing to poke little fun at Stalin, said. Marshal, I have noticed that whenever anyone comes into con- tact with you they become slightly pink" To which Stalin replied And, MT. Prime Minister, any good doctor will tell you that pink is the healthiest of all colors."
 And Roosevelt, wanting to pour oil on the troubled waters. said :: Gentlemen, let me remind you that there is nothing more beau tiful than all the colors of the rainbow
 But at the end, as Churchill bade farewell to Stalin, there was still tension between them.
 Well, goodbye, Marshall said the Prime Minister, "Ill see you in Berlin"
