So Let 's Be
'T'ODAY is Thanksgiving day
Originally a day et aside by the Pilgrim Fatheri for
"thanksgiving and praise to God for the mercies of the past
year", this day has in late years been devoted to gulping an
over-generous portion of turkey and dashing off to some foot
ball game to madly cheer for
The Thanksgiving day ii a traditional feast always in
order, thoroughly enjoyed and long remembered (pleasantly,
too, if the bicarbonate of soda is handy). The Thanksgiving
big gumes have also become institutions . . . clean, hard sport
is very much a part of American life.
Our Thanksgiving prayer should not, however, be altogether
one of victory for the home team. Thanksgiving day should be
taken literally it should be a day devoted, in a measure, to
actually taking stock of our blessings and rendering thanks
for them.
.
WHAT are these blessings?
forf
In a world torn with war; filled with hypocrisy and intoler
ance; its fate in the hands of power-drunk dictators, those who
live in AMERICA have this to be thankful for
FREEDOM and SECURITY 1
FREEDOM to worship as our hearts dictate; FREEDOM to
say and do as we -please (providing our words and actions do
not infringe upon the rights of our fellow citizens) ; FREEDOM
to have a voice in our own government I SECURITY for our
solves, our families, our neighbors and our nation!
That's a LOT to be thankful for!
America has the world's
and finer schools, churches
Conditions and events in
should forcibly bring home to
in America!
KARL VON WIEGAND, dean of American foreign corre
spondents, confidant and friend of kings and dictators,
student of world affairs, sounded a keynote for Thanksgiving
in a nation-wide radio address upon his recent return from
Europe. Here are his words:
"What Impress., me most, or should I say, depresses me when
I oome home on my periodic vlalta. Is to observe how little
the American people appreciate the great gift of FREEDOM that
God and the Constitution haa bestowed on ua, and how little
you realize the feeling of security against war that you can
enjoy. In contrast to the uneasiness, uncertainty and feeling
of Insecurity that welgha like a mountain upon the people of
many countries In Europe. It takes all the Joy out of their life."
Again this able commentator voiced his own view of liberty
the creed of a man who has intimately viewed the world at
its best and worst for three decades. Here it is:
"I would rather be a scrubby sparrow scavenging for a living
In the streets than to be the fattest and most gorgeous eagle
In a cage in the zoo."
Little wonder that it is a relief for Karl Von Wiegand
to return to the freedom and security of America!
Isn't there text for a Thanksgiving Day prayer in these
slrnight-from-thc-hcart words of this distinguished representa
tive of the Fourth Estate t
Hope for the future may be taken from another statement
by this able journalist it is a statement of a man who is
essentially a REALIST,
"In my race around tha circle
Intense anti-war feeling In all
aullen, deep-rooted aversion and antipathy to war such aa I
have not observed In Europe In my nesrly thirty years of foreign
service. It waa aa atrong and deep In Italy as In Prance, among
the German people aa among the English. There was no differ
ence of feeling, view or opinion about the helllshnesa of war.
It was the one hopeful sign of the future that I discovered."
Here, are illuminating and
mnii whose business is OBSERVING and whose job is reporting
FACTS, not false hopes or illusions.
Eventually the people will have their voice in their destinies
throughout the world and a day
will be at band.
But in the mean time, let us

terms the ohallenge of those who may threaten the peace, free

NEW YORK I am a little weary
of the sob stories about Babe Ruth.
Every time some major league club

tears and say : "Poor Bsbe Jilted

greatest Individual, but I still think
a business man should have the
privilege of hiring his own hsnds

Babe Ruth probably contributed
more to baseball

QUESTIONS AND ANHWER8
Three Cents a Pound
Since reading your moat Instruotlve
booklet "Victuals and Vites" X know
more about nutrition than I ever
did before. I can get wheat germ
at a flour mill here for three cents
a . pound. They run It off once a
week. Is this as good as the kind sold
In dniR stores? (Mrs. R. E. B.)
Answer It Is probably as good as
any other wheat germ meal. Use a
few ounces of It daily, mixed- In with
any cereal dish, In cakes, cookies,
etc., In place of half the flour the
recipe calls for, and you will bring
the family's vitamin B complex ration
up somewhere near the optimal.
Ilnhlt and Hygiene
Tour bookie; "Contlpation Habit
and Colon Hygiene" has proved a
Godsend to me. I was virtually a
wreck . , . have taken neither laxa
tlves nor mineral oil for four months
now, and my friends say I look years
younper. Certainly I feel that way.
(A. T. W.)
Answer Millions of victims of the
physic habit never give a thought to
the harmful sldf-cffects of their fav
orite laxatives and "lubricants."
For copy of "Constipation Habit and
Colon Hygiene," send ten cents coin
and stamped envelope bearing your

can at least do the heart patient no
ponslble harm. Is likely to Improve

three or four ounces of wheat erm

from baseball. Baseball haa been
good to Babe.
But he can not get a Job aa a bis
league manager and many of hla
friends think he la being given an
unjust free2c-out. It la my opinion
that the Babe has himself to blame
for this unhnppy state of affairs.
When he waa a dominant figure with
the Yankees he went to Col. Ruppert
and tried tp get Joe McCarthy's Job
aa manager. The colonel expressed
himself aa being entirely satisfied

thereafter- Ruth left the Yankees.

Comment
on the
Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS
A CORRESPONDENT agrees m
principle with the statement
(often made In this column) that
the only way we can have more Is
to produce more. Then he aaks this
pointed question :
"How are we going to BILL MORE
exter we have produced UT"
fP THIS writer could answer that
question, he wouldn't be publish
ing small newspapers. He would be
the biggest man In the world.
The problem of evenly balanced
distribution hasn't yet been solved,
and It. Im fairly probable that the
man who can solve It hasn't yet been
born. But the fact remains that we
can't have what Isn't produced.
IF YOU doubt that this la a fact,
try living out of your garden.
Tou will soon learn that the more
your garden produoea the more you
will have to eat. whereas the less
your gsrden produces the LESS you
will have to eat.
IP YOU want to make a further
experiment, go with half a dozen
of your friends to a desert Island,
where all your food, all your cloth
ing and all your ahelter will have
to be provided by your own labor
applied to auch raw materlala aa
exist on the Island you choose.
Again you will flnU that the mon
you produce the more you will have,
whereaa the less you produce the less
you will have.
NATIONS are big, and, their econ
omy Is complicated by the fact
that one person makes shoes, an
other makes hata, another meJces
tools and atlll another producea food
'and ALL of them must exchange
their producta among one another.
But It la atlll fact, In modern
civilized natlona aa bn simple desert
Islands, that what isn't produced
can't be consumed.
Limiting production (by law, by
working too little, or In any other
way that really WORKS to limit pro
duction) merely results In lowering
the general standard of living.
PERHAPS If we thought more of
things and leaa of money, more
of EXCHANGING and less of SELL
ING, It would help.
At any rate, we need to do aomc
good.' clear thinking on the aubject.
Limitation of production, with the
Idea of JACKING UP THE PRICE,
Isn't getting ua very far In the dir
ection we want to go.

you continued to cover the news dis

seemed to be Just and well-considered
(not to mention prophetic).

Ye Poets. Comei
Thankful
By Joseph Fader
I am reverently thankful this
Thanksgiving day
for the license to feel ths feelings
I do;
for the chance to express them la
sny way,
and to tell them to you and to you
and to you.
I am reverently thanksful this
Thanksgiving day
for the freedom to think so care
lessly too;
for the chance to debate and
wrathfully say
"he's the cause of the panic we're
now going through!"
I am reverently thankful this
Thanksgiving day
for the option to choose profession
or trade,
knowing well that success, ths
amount of my pay,
will depend on my virtues, of what
I am made.
I am glad I can live as a bum or
a king;
always fearless of mind snd free
as a man;
with a heart and a soul and a
mind that can sing,
like only an American can I
