FEEDING EUROPE
The columnists and those who
write for the magazines bid us
be ready to make our decision on
on the question of sending some
uf our vast stores of food to
Europe this winter to feed the
many thousands—if not millions
who will be without unless we
stnu help.
'
There are physical difficulties
- about sending - that may prove
sttiQUi. W’e mean the air block
ade of England and the water
blockade of Germany and he?
conquered states and the shortage,
of shipping that may result
therefrom.
We presume
the problem is j noc
.
to take these things into consider-
at. on. We are to decide whether
to feed the people of France, Bel
gium, Holland, Denmark, Norwav,
and Poland or to let their coti-

the axis powers are prac
tically admitting that they can t
blitxkreig England. »The English,
it appears, are too tough, too good
on the water and more important
still, too determined to retain
their own form of government to
give much opening for fifth col
umns that weakened the low coun
tries and France.
Perhaps the statement is true
that each nation—in . thfe long
run—has the sort of government
it wants. If the people desire to
be free, to have inherant rights
cnc .privileges which their govern
ment dares not take, xv
from j them,
they can have it. If they do no
cart for liberty or the right to
think and act as they wish, if they
with to be told what to do and
when, they can have that sort o_
a government.
Wars are caused when one type
of people having one type of gov
ernment tries to rescue another
people from themselves. If ¿the
Germans want to be bossed around

bombastic - little guy with the
