S. could and would stay out o f the world war. Navy secretary Knox told his pres, conference reports that navy vessels were engaged in convoy duty were ‘‘absolutely untrue’’ and said report, that the navy had lost lives, material and equipment or had been involved in any encounter with belligerent craft were “ ‘most decidedly” not true. OPM director Knudson issued a statement urging greater defense ef forts and said “ nothing could be fur ther from the truth” that Russia’s entry Into the war had averted dan ger to this country. Mr. Knudson said “ we are in somewhat better shape titan we were last summer but we need the spark o f enthusiasm, yes of patriotism, to carry the program for ward faster” .

Our nutin .al anthem once again proved its power to in. pile our love o f country, to make us fairly tingle with patriotism and to make all of our petty p.oblcms seem to melt away in the fate of our major task o f safeguarding everything that Am erica stands.
