"For CoiiVcience'Sake" ... :
While last month the people of the state and ,
ration were called on to invest their m6ney in
bonds -with the assurance their money Will be
returned to them with interest, this month they
f are invited to give of their means for ' most
worthy causes, local and national. The United
War Chest combines the war welfare and re
lief appeals, except the Red Cross which corr
ducts its own campaign for funds in. the" spring,
and the local charities long covered by the Com
munity Chest. Thus in a single effort the funds
for recognized and necessary agencies and caus
es will be raised through the efforts of hundreds
of volunteers and the cooperation of thousands,
of contributors. j
Surely, this year, no urging is needed that
people support the War Chest The need is so
apparent, the value of the service so evident,
and the ability to contribute so general' that
it ; should require only a comparatively short
time to fill the chest to overflowing. For there '
should be a universal feeling, that it is priv
ilege to join hands and dollars in such: an en
terprise. "For conscience' sake might really
be a slogan, because those who refuse or fail
to contribute will most certainly feel uneasy in
their hearts over their default in responding
to humanity's call. ; s , ; ;
The work of local agencies, especially those
dealing with the youth of the community Is '
well known. It is also universally recognized
that these agencies are more necessary, nor;- itive rather than negative domestic policy, stres
than ver before to build moral dykes gairct. g the need for a competitive system of en

into realization that the war creates -and cooperation of industry and government to

work -which now - calls for jfinancial provision
through the Chest -We have two USO centers
in Salem, which"-are financed; out of "the Na--;
tional War Fund;' made up of ttielocaf contribu
tions. The city: would be. helpless without these
two attractive centers, and the service! men sta
tioned here would be left in dire straits. Now
realize that these .USO Reenters , are scattered
11 over the country at army posts and camps,
that through the USO entertainment is carried;
to men overseas, right up behind battle-lines,
and then you wilt appreciate how important it is
to give your financial support' through the War.:

do not ask them to "call back", consuming their

Bleacheritis and the War . -
.... : i I
- Most anyone will concede that wa lot of what
it takes" is required just to earn the right to
wear a big league baseball uniform, even though
merely as a rookie substitute sitting in the dug
out. Yet nearly 'every individual who has at
tained the distinction of becoming a "regular"
has also, experienced, j some, hot afternoon, the
- jeers of assembled thousands of bleacherites.
He has muffed a ground, ball which took a
"bad hopVor he has struck out in the clutch,
and there arises the scornful chorus, "Take him
out, the bum.. Of those who scream their dis
gust, scarce one if plumped in the player's shoes
could even have started after that batted ball
before it passed him. or caught a hazy glimpse
of that fireball third strike. " j
Bleacheritis is a national disease. But it should
be noted that its basic symptom is not vocally
expressed intolerance of failure, but unthinking
blindness to the game's demands and steadi
ness of nerve and sustained effort. f .'.
In wartime, a nation afflicted with bleacher-"
itis does not change its habits of thought and
judgment. Especially if, figuratively,! there is
a screen to keep batted balls out of the stands.
Sitting safely at home -and viewing the game
with aid of newspaper or radio, the bleacher
ite Is blind to the inherent difficulties and even
in a sense to the perils of warfare. i
Thus the bleacherite Is quick to assume, and
in positive tones to declare, that a campaign
such as that In Sicily is "a breeze" and to pre
dict in advance that conquest of Italy likewise
will be a "soft touch." He comes to view aerial
bombardment of Germany as routine, even to
the point of virtually; Ignoring the brief state
ment that a dozen, or even sixty "of our bombers

Willkie's Speech
By PAUL
WASHfl6TON,
. . senate - sub-committee compromise on a post war
. ...
in encouraging .
Itoremployecl roj
.. ConnaUy of craftily sounding out each individual
senator for the administration on this proposition
which has been seldom mentioned in public dis
cussion. Mr. Hull, for instance, has only gone in
his speeches as far as saying some sort of power
must be used to keep the peace.
s The satisfactory compromise resolution does not
. follow those lines, but neither does it conflict with
' them. Its careful words say only that the United
States should act "through constitutional processes"
to Join "free and sovereign nations" in an Inter
national authority "with power to prevent aggres
sion and preserve the peace."
The 'constitutional processes" presumably means
' that whatever Messrs. Roosevel and Hull nego
tiate with the other nations must be confirmed
by the senate, as provided in the constitution.
The "free and sovereign nations" phrase could
restrict the league considerably If a literal in
terpretation of Tfreedom" is followed. (Is Russia
Free? Canada? India? The rest of It could mean
what Mr.' Hull has In mind: ..
Actually, 1t means nothing specific The only
real excuse for passing such a generalized reso
lution is that the administration wanted something
on record, from congress to prove to the British,
Russians, and other nations,' that congress this
time would not be Isolationist as the senate was
after the last war.. , , .
As republicans and democrats are joining in
its broad statement, it may serve that purpose.
But it does pot assure senate approval of any de
tailed post-war peace program henceforth.
' You will recall the last post-war senate over
whelmingly favored a league, but broke up over
details of its authority. The greatest detail issue be
ing the use of economic and military sanctions.
The unity which the action bespeaks, therefore,
may possibly have been over-Interpreted. Under
neath no one seems to have given ground, certain
ly not the administration and presumably not the
isolationists, although some of their extreme mem
bers are likely to fight against even this undefined
promise of sympathetic consideration for whatever
. Messrs. Roosevelt and Hull devise. 1
The resolution is like, more than anything else,
a plank in a party platform, presented in round and.
glossy phrases, the true meaning of which can only -rest
In the Interpretation. which the presidential
candidate gives It later in specific statement Plat
forms generally are forgotten as soon as written.
Neither is this a declaration of the congress as
a whole. Wow It can never be that. The senate
crowd thought Sol Bloom, the house foreign affairs
chairman, had usurped their exclusive prerogatives
as a treaty counseling agent of the president by
getting the republicans In on the Fulbright reso
lution which was a Joint resolution to be passed
' by both houses. ,
complaint on wm never go to
every hand that folk, oil the home 1 front are
not' matching in their devotion to the national
objective, victory, the effort and sacrifice of
the fighting, men. - j . -. t' - r
. Lack of adequate news picture of the fight
ing is blamed and it may be, in fact almost ,
certainly is the case that much of the news is
written by ! bleacherite reporters. But funda
mentally, the trouble is the disease itself, blea
cheritis which being translated, means,
"thoughtless lack of appreciation." i
Wendell Willkie's address in St. Louis. Friday :
night may be regarded as a curtain-raiser for
his campaign for the republican presidential'
nomination. He made some excellent points
which need emphasis.
First he pointed out the danger of perpet
uating a dynasty in power: "For power so long
held breeds within itself certain abuses which
will ultimately destroy a democratic society."
Second, in the field of international affairs
he urged that the United States exercise the.
leadership entrusted to it by the peoples of the
world and join with Great Britain, Russia and
China in forming a common council embracing
at first all friendly nations and later all the
nations. He warned against making offensive
and defensive alliances as indulging in power
politics which will lead to disaster.
Third, he outlined the general terms of a pos-
minimize the fluctuation in expenditures . for
durable goods which is responsible for the wide
swings in the economic cycle.
Mr. Willkie has made his general position
clear. He has taken high ground. Will other
aspirants to the presidency meet him on that
level, or try to win in the back-stage poker
game of politics? '

The satisfactory
resolute n evolved from an entirely different' one
which was carried around by Foreign Relations
Chairmen Ccrmally in his inside pocket for the
past-two weeks.;
"The text of the original resolution was not made
public but It was supposed to represent what Sec
retary of State Hull has in
mind.
Basically, it proposed an.
International organization along
the lines of the league of na
tions, empowered to impose
what displomatic phraseologists
call "economic and military
sanctions', on - non-conformist
nations or aggressors. :
"Sanctions" is a word drip
ping with honey, but, it means
,Paoi MHn the use of force. Economic sanc
tions y would be embargos against arms, food, or
ether products to offenders. Military sanctions

An old ally of the United Na
tions, deadlier In battle than the
guns and bombs cf man-made .
war, is again deploying its forces
this mid-October weekend.
" Another Russian winter is
close at hand to cut at '.the
wavering Dnieper "blood "wall'
of nazi Invaders, to slash with icy
blasts and numbing cold at the '
foe, , perhaps - to turn , another
German foreshadowed retreat
into a greater disaster than
crushed Napoleon's grand army
on the same bleak sweep of
'west-central Russian plains. .
The worst winter of dread IliU .
ler has known In Russia is at his ;
i throat. It could ' do more than ,
. Russian or allied fighting power,
for all the year of unbroken vic
tories, to break the will of the
German people and tumble na?
2ism to the doom, that fascism
has met and Is . closing in on Ja-
panese militarism. -
It can no - longer be , doubted
that the vast Russian summer
offensive ' which has swept the'
nazi foe back across the Dnieper
: was Moscow designed from its
inception In July to merge with
out a break into another Russian
winter attack. : Allied apprehen-S
sions that red armies would ex
haust themselves and afford the
foe opportunity to ' brace and
- stock, new defense ' lines have .
proven unfounded.
'There has' been no halt any-3
' where in Russia since July to
give the enemy a breathing spell. V
. The great retreat to shorten :
nazi defense lines has been 'skill- ,
fully managed, but it is not over '
by every sign. It has not short-
ened the 1200-mile fighting front
from the Baltic to the Black sea, ;
only the supply lines In the cen-
ter. The German high command
needs more, not fewer troops, to
hold that battered "blood wall"
already virtually" split in two by
. the Russian leap beyond ..the riv
er near the Pripet mouth to the
' eastern rim of the Pinsk marsh
es. ' ;
Moscow reports no sign yet of
a German evacuation of the Cri
mea or the badly dented Dnieper
bend front Both are menacing"
traps that could engulf and de
stroy greater enemy forces than . '
were overwhelmed at Stalingrad
when the Russian inarch to the
Dnieper began last winter. It is
beyond, military - comprehension
; that the Invaders dare risk much :

longer so crushing a disaster la
Russia as the isolation - of the
Crimea or the closing of the
Dnieper bend trap.
Nor is the indicated situation
brighter for the long left wing
of the nazi line above the Dnie

, and the terrible menace of Rus
sian winter maneuvers will striks
first - -, -
- The' level rail key is already
lost, the Orsha and Vitebsk bas
tions - quaking under unabalei
Russian pressure. 1 And a naii
winter retreat from Leningrad
and the Volkhov and the Loyat
could involve no less dangers
than the 'seemingly inescapable
withdrawal from the Crimea an 3
the Dnieper bend.
, On all fronts, the scene for the
United Nations is bright by con
trast with the face it showed a
year ago this mid-October. Bet
nowhere is it so bright, so fraugk.t
with tremendous possibttities in
the months just ahead, as in Rut-
ia. And It Is there that the great
est ally of them all, another Ru
sian winter, is marshalling fcr
new action that could bring o a
the decisive battles of the war in
Europe before spring comes
again.'-;. . '
(Continued from Page 1)
tactics are still the subject of
study In military academies. He
put his Weaker troops, Spanisli,
and Gallic infantry in the cen
ter, his heavy African infantry
and. fine Numidian cavalry cn
the j flanks. He tempted Varro,
the Roman commander, to at
tack. Hannibal's center gave way,
giving the Romans the ilhisic n
of victory. Then the" African
infantry hit them on the flanks
and the cavalry from the rear
and once more the Romans were
crushed, with nearly 70,000 of
their soldiers killed on the field.
But just as after the battle of
I a k e Traseminus, Hannibal
failed to exploit his victory. In
stead of marching on Rome,
which was In panic and defense
less, he turned aside to Capua,
which opened its gates to him
and his army, its gates and
its pleasures. "After Cannae, he
started on the down-grade and
his record, thereafter, is one of
discouragement and final defeat.-
. , ' -
Intrigued by the mystery as
to why Hannibal failed twice to
seize Rome when it lay almost
Unprotected before him, Robert
E. Sherwood gave his imagina
tion range and wrote the dra
ma The Road to Rome." I saw
the play when it was having its
run In New York in 1927, with
Jane Cowl in the feminine lead
and .Philip Merivale as Hanni
bal. A very good, modern treat
ment of some rich historical and
biographical material, the spe
cial episode being Hannibal's de
cision to swing to Capua instead
of proceeding to level Rome and
ravish its Inhabitants.
One can read the play and
learn what Sherwood's Imagina
tion supplies as explanation of
Hannibal's change of direction.
(Hannibal has Issued orders for
his generals to post their forces
for the attack on Rome, and they
return to headquarters to. report
tney are prepared):
Hasdrubal: The army Is ready to -attack

Maharbal: The trouble with you.
air. is that you know how to gain
victories but not how no use them.
That last protest of Mahar
bal's is historic: "You know how
to gain victories but not how
to use them.'
In any war there Is always
the dread portent that it may also ,
be prophetic.
