Any one tempted to tamper with
the United States mails had bet
ter first have a look at Appoint
ment with Danger" which opened
yesterday at the Warner Theater
In this Paramount film, Alan
Ladd in the role of q postal in
spection agent demonstrates that
mail robbery is fatal business to
get into. The story, composite
of several cases taken from the
Post ONCE Department files in
Washington, is excellent Alan
Ladd material. The fact is that
it is so much better than his
recent melodrama makings that
Paramount might wisely come
back and comb the post office for
a sequel.
Appointment With Danger" in
which Ladd is a hero tough
enough to crumple a speeding
locomotive. is quite a revelation of
the excitement in the lives Of
postal inspectors.
The people he meets here are
both varied and interesting. They
begin with q nun who happens
to be witness to the killing of
another postal agent. and run on
through the murderers In this
particular case to a gang which
is plotting a gigantic money haul
in a midwestern city. The killing
happens to be a prelude to the
gangs plot to snatch a million
dollars.
Paramount gives Appointment
With Danger" one of those starkly
realistic treatments which have
become the fashion in Federal
crime hunt fact-fictions. AS the
sleuth running down the gang,
through alleys. pool rooms. flea
bag hotels and railroad yards,
Ladd is remorseless, courageous,
and extraordinarily crafty.
His inhumanity, played against
the human warmth and sympathy
OF the nun imperSonated by Phyl-
lis Calvert. gives the film one of
it's more interesting contrasts. It
also gives it most of its humor for
the inspector played by Ladd is
a fellow much more at home in
the company of the discolored
dove played by Jan Sterling and
the mobsters whose ranks he in
flltrates.
Director Lewis Allen keeps his
story moving at an exciting tempo
and induces his capable cast to
give those slick, solid and violent
performances expected Of Ladd's
colleagues in any movie.-J. C.

The man played by Milland is

rumble of a nearby explosion and
the wall of fire truck and ambu-

sacrifice essential to giving this nation the strength to win

make Their performances in the past make that certainty
Unfortunately, the President made mention OF any
sacrifices to be made by the Administration Perhaps ne
has some in mind but just forgot to mention them Could
it be that he plans to give up yacht an alrplane
perhaps even an automobile tWo Maybe he has even
lighly resolved in the emergency to write no more nasty
notes to Congressman and critics

notion of fostng Welfare State upon he overlooked
mentioning it. Surely, he must know that this definitely

single penny except for actual defense requirements
Is the President willing to abandon the IDEA soWn by
the Socialists Planned Economists and the AntBusi-
ness Group that anyone who his way honestly ana
by Thrift achieves worldly success than his less IN
dusrous and less provdent neghbor must have done so
by thieving and to the detriment of his fellows!
The President did say that he plans to cut non-rniary
expenditures the bone Does this he is planning TO

and scarce able to distinguish it

it happened, sir, that we have
not hitherto once thought of

Light to illuminate our under

long time; and the longer /

l see of this truth,-that God
governs in the affairs of men.
And if a sparrow cannot fall
to the ground without his notice,

THE AMERICAN WAY
Death to Capitalism

One of my duties as an editor
is to spend considerable time
studying the public utterances
of national leaders. This study
has convinced me that the lead
ers of American Capitalism are
doing a mighty poor job of sell
ing this system to at least one
large body of fellow capitalists
the American workers.
Millions upon millions of dol
lars are spent annually on ad-
vertising the products of Capital
ism and the accomplishments in
direction are truly Stupendous.

From speech of d. UhIman
Philosophers, in their dreams,
had built ideal governments;
Plato had luxurated in the hap
piness of his fanciful republic;
Sir Thomas Moore had revealed

American Independence, was it,

they regard the average Ameri-
can as either an educated snob
or an irnbecne. They beat about
the bush of what they are en-
deavoring to put across. They
tell their story either in a Ian
guage necessitating a Harvard
degree to comprehend or in
kindergarten terms that insult
the intelligence of the reader.
What is needed, if we are to
keep capitalism alive and funct-
ioning, is a straightforward
down-to-earth international
campaign that will tell the
American people all there is to
know about capitalism-not
simply as it affects our busin-
ess leaders of the nation but as
1t affects the workingmen as
well. In fact, chief emphasis
should be directed toward the
latter.
What does the average worker
care about capitalism if he be-
lieves that its benefits are re-
served for the other fellow-the
businessman? If he is to place
high value on this economic
system, he must be shown in
clear, unmistakable terms that
he himself is proportionately as
much capitalist as the duPonts,
the Fords and the Rockefellers.
He must be made to see that
what benefits these people bene-
fits him-and that what hurts
them will likewise hurt him. He
must be shown that the destruc-
ton of the capitalism system by
communism or. socialism or any
other form of collectivism will
mean the loss of something
pretty valuable to him-TO
HIMSELF PERSONALLY

man, big or little, stands to lose.
Consider the effect upon the in
NlN1obo1 WI hS1.
The worker should be helped
to realize that in communistic
and socialistic countries he is
deprived of the means of provid-
ing his own financial security.
In Soviet Russia, for example,
the worker does not own his
own home or drive his own car.
He is denied the right of free
speech. He cannot pursue an
occupation of his own choosing
He cannot quit an occupation
when he himself sees fit. He is
not allowed to voice his own
opinion at the polls and last, but
not least, he is not allowed to be-
long to church of his own
choice.
These are the things that must
be brought to the attention of
American workingmen-the
junior capitalists, mind you, of
this United States. Unless these
things are done, the time is not
for distant when these same
Workingmen, because of their

Steel Headed for Hungary
From Germany Halted
BY the Associated Press

FRANKFURT, Germany, May
12.-American and German au-
thorities-determined to halt the
flow of strategic German goods
through the Iron Curtain-halted
4 900 tons of steel rails headed for
Hungary yesterday.
The action is believed to signal
the opening of a drive to plug the
German border leaks through
which an estimated 81 billion
worth of strategic goods have
found their way into, Communist
countries since World War II.
The move was announced only
"a few hours after United States
Senators had demanded that
United States High Commissioner
John j. McCloy explain why he
had not stopped Russia and her
satellites from freely and openly
draining war potential materials
from West Germany"
The 1926 carloads of rails had
been legally licensed for export by
German authorities. A United
States high commission an
nouncement said they were halted
because the shipment was
deemed indavisable."
