But, in spite of all this, they AREN'T sending against us suf ficient air power to DO THE JOB. That makes It fairly certain that they HAVEN'T GOT IT. THERE Is another interesting sign of a loose screw. .In a despotic, hard-boiled, mer cilessly governed country such as Japan where In an economy of cheapness, human life is the cheapest of all commodities the suicide, tactics of the Japanese land forces In the outlying islands is at least explainable on mili tary grounds. It has two probable purposes: . , ' . 1. To delay us as long as possi ble while preparations for de fense go on at home. 1 ' 2. To convince us that killing ALL the Japs is a longer and bloodier and more nauseating Job than we care to go through with. - From the beginning, Japanese tommanders have been reckless with their manpower so reckless lhat they obviously have fixed In their minds the though that there lire "plenty more where these ome from." . , But AIR POWER is another matter. IN a country as poor as Japan, there IS a limit to air power. We can build planes faster than the Japs can. We can keep it up longer. When the Japs start sui cide fighting in the air they are courting disaster. Suicide air attacks are too much like throwing your knife at an approaching enemy. If you catch him In the heart and finish him off, all is well. But If you MISS him you are left help less. There are certainly no signs that Jap suicide tactics in the air are hurting us more than we can bear. Throwing away planes ami pilots in suldde attacks looks very much like PANIC on the part of the little yellow men. Either that or very poor think ing. NOTE, Incidentally, iinit Suzuki CALLS IN HIS CABINET in this grave emergency. It's quite all right to be a DICTATOR when ail is going well and the goose hangs comfortably high. But when disaster begins to loom it's pretty nice to have somebody to SHARE THE BLAME with. OUR HONORED DEAD By Charles V. Stanton Tomorrow we 'stop for a moment to review the terrible cost pf war. Not the cost in dollars and cents, nor in de struction of property. We can pay the debt; we can find new materials with, which to hide the scar of war's devasta tion. But nothing- can restore life to those gallant men who have paid the price of war with their own blood; who lie today in graves in our own cemeteries or in foreign soil, or in the depths of the sea. We have fresh cause for sorrow as we count the more than .300,000 dead and missing of our one million casualty list of the current war. To this heroic Legion of the Dead must be added the honor roll of those who have sacrificed their lives in the wars of the past. It is a mighty army. Today we fight with guns, tanks, planes and ships to tecure peace. But peace can never come until it finds its place in the hearts of men. If we could but see the ghostly hands of the Legion of the Dead held out in pleading for men to abolish war with its tragic toll of life, war would never again cast its shadow upon the world. Could we have held before us day-by-day, instead of once each year, the roll of our honored dead, our determination for peace would have been strengthened into action. Great, though simple, words were spoken upon the field of Gettysburg by our martyred president, Abraham Lincoln, when he said : It us rat her'' for us to be hare dedicated to the great .task remaining before us, that from thexe honored dead we take increased devotimi to that caus-i for which they gape the last full meamtre of devotion, that we here highly rcxoUe thai these dead sludl not have died in vain. No words ever spoken by man are more applicable to to day's need than Lincoln's appeal for peace. Representatives of the peace-loving nations of the world are meeting in San Francisco in an attempt to arrive at u formula to prevent future wars that "these dead shall not have died in vain." The prayers of the world are with their efforts. If the peace-loving majorities can produce a formula by which nations can live in harmony, with warmongers out lawed forever, then the dead will not have died in vain. Each war of modern times has advanced civilization. This war,-too, will, in many respects, offset its cost in lives and property by its contributions to human welfare, for the advances made in transportation, communication, medical science, production and organization will make this world a butter place in which to live. But its prime achievement may be that of permanent peace, for the world has been so shocked by the barbarity, treachery, torture and murder of this war tliat it has at last aroused itself to demand that wars shall be no more; to demand that nations which cause war shall be rendered impotent to again cast the plague of death and destruction lpon those. vtyo seek to live in peace. .' , , : , I " Crosses mark the graves of hundreds of thousands of our veterans in cemeteries throughout the world today. They are to be found upon the sands of the African desert, the beaches of France and Italy, upon the coral islands of the Pacific. Their number continues to grow. Above each mound the symbol of the Prince of Peace is reflected in some stricken home and in human heurts. It is not enough that we pay lip homage to those who have made the supreme sacri fice. It is not enough that we parade in their honor, cast flowers upon the waters, and sing paeans in tli.lr praise. We should and must, in their honor, determine, thjit "these dead shall not have died in vain." THERE Is a comforting note in the news. We are assured that a meeting of the Big Three (Tru man, Churchill, Stalin) is coming up soon -maybe within the next three weeks. It is NEEDED. The world Is full of suspicion. The Russians are clearly sus picious of us and the British, in spite of all our great admiration for their fighting qualities, we are lioglnuing to be dubious about the Russians. If this suspicion THICKENS, instead of being dis pelled, the. consequences can be disastrous. All business men know that when suspicion begins to spread to such an extent that It jeop ardizes I he successful completion of a deal that if carried through will mean profits for everybody concerned the thing to do Is to get the PRINCIPALS together AROUND A TABLE. Nothing clears up suspicion like frank and open discussion face to face.

IK we can approach the future fti that humble, simple, sensible spirit, there is literally NOTHING we can't accomplish. We can pay off our war debt. We can solve our social problems. If we'll all work together, each contributing whatever he has that is valuable to the common cause, each accepting gratefully the use ful contributions of others, we can build the kind of world we all want to live in. .
