PARALLEL
ACTION SMART

There is nothing to be
gained by the tactics Of sew
eral isolationist Senator'S who
contend that new evidence
indicates parallel pre-war
action by the United States
and Great Britain in the Pa
cific.'
With the British Empire
engaged in a life-and-death
struggle in Europe and the
United States convinced that
the success Of the totalitar-
ian states would constitute
a menace to this country, it.
was perfectly logical fer
both countries to be inter-
ested in devising some plan
to discourage Japanese ag-
gressiOn. .sF.
The critics Of the late
President Roosevelt attach,
great Importance to the fact
that the British proposed
that both countries warn ia
pan against any further ag-
gressive moves, Certainly,
in view Of the world situa-
ton at the time, such action
w ould have represented
nothing more than realiza-
ton Of the disadvantage of
taking on two wars at the
same time.
It should be noted that
there is nothing wrong with
parallel action between the
United States and any other
country. even if such pro-
cedure is followed by agree
ment, unless It goes so far as
to commit the United States
to belligerent action in the
interest of another power.
Even If the proposed course
contains the possibility of
war, IL would be justified if
the world situation indicated
. = !.
that such . warning might
Ispafe this country from more
serious Consequences.

Your HOROSCOPE

FRIDAY, APRIL 10, 1947-To-
day brings a rich and beneficient
nature, which attracts nanv
friends. There may be q little
too much love of luxury, a little
too much desire for praise: but
there is certain tenacity Of pur-
pose and a habit of listening to
advice that generally overcomes
difficulties. 4.
