"The party is not in such
serious straits. There is only
necessary a restatement of Is

and strict allegiance to time

our Democratic party. We
have suffered defeat and we
have enjoyed victory. But, by

stay at the helm."

Have We Gone Soft?
"The tragic ordeal through
is passing was prepared in the long period of easy liberty
during which men . . . forgot that their freedom was
achieved by heroic sacrifice . . . they forgot that their
rights were founded on their duties . . . they thought it
clever to be cynical, and enlightened to be unbelieving, and
sensible to be soft . . . "Walter Lippmann.
THAT comes from the man we regard as the fore-
most news and political commentator in the United
JStates, and the nearest approach we have to a na
tional prophet.
We are sure those who have read Mr. Lippmann
regularly, not only since World War No. 2 started, but
for months before, will agree that in every important
particular his diagnoses and predictions have been
about 100 right We have not agreed with him po
litically very often, but we have given up being skepti
cal of his forecasts, for in the realm of analysis and
diagnosis, subsequent events have convinced us the
man is a genius. '

observation, this department would not be disposed
to question it.
- But there is abundant evidence, clear to anyone
who cares to review the recent history of the "West
ern World" that "we the people" or at least far too
many of us, have forgotten the sacrifices that were
needed to establish this free democracy, the necessity
of performing certain duties, willingly and promptly,
to maintain it, and the obligation in time of crisis to
sustain and defend what our forefathers, at such a
great sacrifice, finally won.
A ND HERE, at our very doors today, we have added
evidence of the truth
cftntral and contemporary than what has recently
been going on at the local Chamber of Commerce.
A few days ago, President Roosevelt asked for
the authority to call out the national guard, in case
of sudden emergency, and in this request he was sup
ported by General Marshall, chief-of-staff.
As a result of this action, officers of the local
National Guard issued an appeal for recruits, so the
local company might be brought up to normal
strength. For nearly two weeks now this appeal has
beerr supported by a great deal of publicity, news
paper, radio, movie and otherwise, but to date there
has been literally no response.
What is the answer?
From the standpoint of not only local but national
defense there is no question of the need. Nor can
there be any question that the need is generally
known in this community.
Why then have no young men, or only one,
come forward? If the answer doesn't lie in that quota
tion from Walter Lippmann, then where does it lie?
This much at least is certain, as we see it
If, in a supreme crisis, we the people don't CARE
ENOUGH about democracy to FIGHT, and if
NEED be, die for it, we
HAVE it!

And while there is yet time, we might as well enjoy

"there is many a slip between the cup and the lip."

Moreover, there s that pride business. The Berlin
High Command didn't announce in advance what
they were going to do to Poland, Norway, Holland
or the Channel ports. In fact, they were very cagey
about it, they crashed in without any predictions as
to this or that, and staged no celebrations until there
was something to celebrate.
But now, with the latest Blitzkrieg only 24 hours
old they proclaim that in no more than two weeks,
very likely one, they will be goose stepping down the
"Champs Elvsce," and under the "Arc de Triumph."
"All right! All right!" as the Colonel might
remark.
Nevertheless, we are going to risk all we can bor

STOCKINGS
According to a news Item like.
that humdinger reporting that
a sheriff photographed the mur
der victims retina or something
and found the
image of the
murderer rec
orded there
a medical wo
man (I'm sorry
H.'s' Vl
to note) has
just published
a warning to
members o f
her sex against
wearing sheer
one-thread or
two -thread
silk stockings,
as this near-nudity, in her opin
ion, is certain to bring on arthri
tis. By way of preserving a strict
ly "scientific" attitude the doc
tress carefully calls it arthritis,
not rheumatiz. Apparently she
fears some silly members of the
sex may still discount the haz
ards of leg art, for she offers
an alternative plan in case a girl
has to exploit it to distract at
tention from her dearth of na
tural charm, and that is to wear
substantial cotton stockings in
Inclement weather, with silk
ones over 'em if cotton is not
flashy enough.
Buried somewhere in my files
are full page announcements,
published in the snootiest medi
cal journals by the interests, of
the importance of wearing
warm long-legged underwear,
especially in the spring, fall and
winter, and quoting a number of
quaint medical authorities who
opined that the scantiness of at
tire affected by young women
was likely to bring on pneumon
ia, bronchial trouble, tubercu
losis, rheumatism and other mal
adies. While the educational
campaign was running it was
velvet for the medical journals,
but only the old ladies and the
holy frights ever gave the warn
ing a second thought. Girls with
legs continued operating on the
principle that them as has 'em
shows 'em.
As a physician I am a fairly
good bowler, but take it as you
will, I must say that the tradi
tional theories and beliefs and
the present practice of a consid
erable majority of regular phy
sicians in reference to the In
fluence of exposure to cold
dampness, drafts and sudden
changes upon health and illness
are illogical and absurd. As long
as the fustian practioner ad
heres to his or her quaint no
tions in stupid defiance of the
overwhelming weight of scien
tific knowledge and universal
experience, preventable respira
tory infections will continue to
cause most of the illness physi
cians attend. With so much en
couragement from doctors peo
ple coming down with any such
illness will continue to spread
the infection indiscriminately
until the illness compels them to
take to bed.
Notwithstanding the pseudo-
scientific malarkey propagated
by physicians and health author
ities regarding "the common
cold" an apocryphal disease
which nobody dares to define
it is worthy of note that no phy
sician or health authority has
the temerity to offer "cold" as
a diagnosis for any official rec
ord. Whenever a doctor pur
ports to say that a patient has
"lust a heavy cold" you may
take it as certain that he means
either he doesn't know as yet
what ails the patient or if he
does know it is for your good
that he keeps the knowledge to
himself.
