Among provisions Of the pro-
posed act Il that convicted youth
ful offender could be sentenced to
the custody OF the authority for

SUGGESTS u. S. HIRE
fMERCENARIES

Senator Ebert Thomas,
of Utah, proposes that the
United States allow enlist
ments of Allied forces, in
order that. our Army may
have enough men to serve
as guards in the areas oc-
cupied by us as a result of
the war.
Mr.. Thomas suggested
that foreigners, particularly
Poles, be used to replace
American soldiers, and he
would give them the pay that
American soldiers receive
"but none of the other bene-
fits" He says that "even if
we only got one extra sol
der, that would at least save
the drafting of one 18-year-
old" s's
We are not surprised that
the suggestion has been
made that the United States
employ mercenary troops
to perform the functions
that devolve upon this coun-
try as a result of winning
two tremendous wars. Hard
pressed congressman, no
doubt, might be inclined to
grab at the idea as a drown
ing man clutches at a
straw, but the history of the
past reveals that the employ
ment of rnercenary soldiers
is one sign of the decadence
of a nation.
Unfortunately, the peo-
pie of the United States, or
certainly a large number of
them, are entirely unwilling
to pay the price of being the
worlds greatest nation. The
United States can no more
dodge its responsibility than
it can dodge involvement in
any future war.
Distasteful though it may
be, it is up to us to take
whatever steps may be nee
essary to provide the armed
forces needed for the pres
ent job in the world. If this
inconvenience young men
of eighteen and nineteen
years of age, it is unfortun-
ate, but, after all, they are
facing a much easier pros
pect than that faced by the
veterans of the past war.

FIFTY. YEARS OF WHEELS

Much of Americas prog
ress in the past so years
as has been interestingly
brought out by the Automo-
tive Golden Jubilee celebfat-
ed in Detroit recently - has
been due to the automobile.
Yes sir, it looks as if it's
here to stay, justltylng
those independent and re-
sourceful pioneers W n o
staked their last dollars on
the premise it was "here to
stay" along back at the turn
of the century.
Automobile" spells trans
portation to most OF us, a
convenient means to get
from one place to another.
Such casual appraisal hard
ly ever extends to the ra11nl-
fications of the industry and
how it has carried America
along. In wartime, World
War II particularly, it has
served we'll. One high army
official pointed out that the
biggest mistake made by
the Nazis was when they
put their war on wheels.
Estimates are that one of
every seven of the some
52,000,000 jobs now being
worked at in the United
States is either directly or
indirectly connected to the
auto industry. About 3d.
100000 are in use at pres
ent, The automobile has
spread the cities of the ma
ton far beyond their 1900
bounds, and brought rural
jewellers to city conven1ences
in m any circumstances.
There are $4,000 communi-
ties In the United States at
present served only by truck,
buses and automobiles.
The automobile means
more than a mere machine
in America. 1t has become a
part of life, a facility that
has been gained through
evolution dating back to the
days when the first print
tive man found that a disc
or round log rolled and
made his work easier. Its
golden jubilee year well
deserves the attention OF
our citizens.
