executives; when Fala. gets a honeymoon, while the Atlantic
Charter is revealed tq be pnly scraps of paper, we are, finally
brought to full realisation tjiat the country is going to the
bow-wows. '
- If we were not engaged in a war in which lives of brave
American rnen are, tt stake, the slap-stick comedy on the
home front could be more lightly considered. But when ap
peals are being made for greater production effort, when
stress is placed upon individual contribution to the war ef
fort, when the gallant struggle being made by our fighting
men in eyery corner of the globe is pf deep concern to every
parent, who fears each moment may bring that dread tele
gram : "We regret to inform you ", the picture ceases
to be funny.
''Blaze," ah English mastiff, gets a priority denied a ser
vice man called home by illness and death. Henry Wallace,
whg stepped, down, as a candidate for the vice-presidency, is
rewarded by a priority over Jesse Jones, who has served
his country diligently in an official capacity for nearly a
score of years. It's all of the same pattern.
; Jesse Jones has proven his ability. He served under
President Hoover and he has been in the New Deal govern
ment since 1935. The President admits Jones' efficiency,
his ability, and his loyalty. But he ousts him from his of
fice simply because Wallace wants it and Henry must re
ceive his political reward.
It's time to find out whether this country is being run
for the welfare pf its people and its men who are fighting
its battles, or for the power and prestige of the politically
faithful.
Does the fact that Henry Wallace was willing to be a
sacrifice on the party's altar, by any stretch of the imagi
nation, qualify him to manage one of the most vital depart-
UT of this we can be CERTAIN:
The Germans djcln't just give
tip and quit on the Vistula. In
spito of the best they could do,
tney took a beating there.
1 At this distance, it looks like
li terrible beating.
THERE is 'considerable specula
tion, reflected n the dispatch
es, as to who wll get to Berlin
.fjrst we and (he British, or the
Russians.
i It isn't wholly IDL-E specula
tion. There whs a strange passage
in Churchill's most recent speech.
He called on tho Germans to sur
render unconditionally NOW. He
cited OUR (meaning U. S. and
J3r(tish)' well known humanity.
ifie pointed out that we just can't
bring ourselves to do certain
things (which ho left unnamed).
Churchill seldom shools in the
dm'k. It s hard to bring our
selves tp helieye that he was
'hooting In the dark then. He
rnust have been suggesting to the
German people that it will be
liottoE. for them to surrender to
the Americans and the British
than to wait to be CONQUERED
try the Russians.
