duetion they are saying openly
that lots of Okinawa will be well
nigh fatal).
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.

Time out to relax... Have a Coca-Cola
...or refreshment helps in housework
Home chores arc easier when you work refreshed. With ice-cold Coca-Cola
in your icebox, you are only a few steps from the pause that refreshes at home.
When it's time to Hare a Coke, or to offer it to guests, it's a comfort to know
that you have a supply on hand, ice-cold in your refrigerator. The pause that
refreshes with ice-cold Coca-Cola has won its way into homes everywhere as
a refreshing symbol of American living.
