Everyone up and down Main Street asks "What did you
think of the Democratic Convention!" ,
Our answer is "terrible," with various and sundry elabora
tions. Whereupon they assume we have seen the light at last,
and agree with them regarding that so-and-so and such-and-such,
Franklin Delano.
Of course we do not. Whereupon, unless we are smart enough
to change the subject or retire, there is one of these tiresome
arguments again, about whether or not President Roosevelt
should be equipped with horns and a tail, or a halo.
Our answer is neither. Hut because we don't regard him
as the greatest enemy of democracy aud true Americanism in
the universe today we are filed away as just another F.D.R.

out from Santa Claus.
Whew-w-w- it's too hot to talk politics. or anything elsel
However, we might as well get this F.D.R. and the Chicago
convention cleared up once and for all. Here goes:
As previously noted Franklin Delano didn't force his third
term nomination on the convention; the convention forced
it on hira.

that this was inevitable, for there was no other place to. go. .

Each Day Hitler Delays Blow
Adds to Strength of Britain
By DeWltl MacKenile
Every day that Herr Hitler
withholds the blow by which
he hopes to destroy England
adds to the defensive strength
of that tight little island, and
to British chances in general
again.-t nazidom.
At least that s what has been
happening up to now. This be
ing the case, the fuehrer s delay
in striking with his victorious
war-machine has become one of
the wonders of the world.
Had the Germans attempted
their blit7rieg when they had
smashed France, and British de
fense was nuire or less at sixes
and sevens, the war might have
been over now. As It i. trut
land has developed a strength
which has been producing at
tonishing results In the daily
aerial dogfights over Britain
and the channel, and in raids
on Germany.
Task Grows Harder
Tba naii task certainly has
of it. Place the blame where
remains: . -

One reason for the German
delay may be the conversations

claims these conferences are
urgent because Britain is try

prised. It would be a smart
move on England's part if she
could build a bonfire on Hit

Equalling disturbing from the
German stand point must be
the growing power of the Brit-j

has been going forward was

TRICHIASIS FROM
Trichinella spiralis, commonly
called trichina, la a small round
worm less than one-fourth inch
long In the
adult stage. It
is a common
Intestinal par

The hog be
comes infested
by eating rats.
Larvae of the
worms pene

stomach wall
or i n testinal
wall and so get
Into the lym
phatic channels and Into the
blood stream and are carried to
all parts of the body. The larvae
In the hog's muscle or other
tissues becomes encysted. Man
eats' the pork, insufficiently
cooked to kill the encysted lar
vae. So the pork eater becomes
infested. ,
The cyst Is dissolved in the
stomach or intestine, the larvae
set free, and it grows Into the
adult worm in a week more or
less.
At this stage, the setting free
of the larvae in the stomach or
intestine of the pork eater, if
the infestation la large, that is,
with a great number of the lar
vae, the victim suffers nausea,
vomiting, diarrhea, pain in abdo
men, sudden feverishness. In the
course of a few days to a week
the larvae develop into adults
and begin migrating into the tis
sues. With this stage the vic
tim suffers characteristic mus
cle pains and tenderness, with
continued or Irregular fever,
prostration, anemia, and in many
instances a peculiar heaviness or
edema around the eyes.
Some pathologists believe the
hog is the important host of
trichina, and that the parasite
would not survive in the rat if
hogs were not fed the uncooked
offal from slaughterhouses or
the carcasses of dead hogs.
Microscopic examination of
pork is the only way to detect
the presence of trichina. This is
impossible in the routine federal
inspection of meat.
Thorough cooking destroys
any trichina in any meat. This
is the protection on which the
public must rely.
Probably many cases of tri
chinosis have been mistaken for
typhoid fever, acute Indigestion,
mushroom poisoning, ptomaine
poisoning and in the later stage
for rheumatism.
Diagnosis of trichinosis rests
on the symptoms mentioned,
with a rather characteristic in
against a loss of five British
machines.
Perhaps more to the point is
the British claim that by 1.000
heavy air raids against German
positions they have made it very
difficult for the enemy to organ
ire mass raids against England
from airdromes in Holland, Bel
gium and France.
This may easily account in
part for some of Hitler's delay
in making his big attack. Mass
bombing of England is, of
course, vital to the success of
any invasion which the nazis 1
might attempt. I
Plane Output Grows
The British ability to carry
out such extensive air opera
tions is due to the great Increase i
in their airplane "production.)
This has more than doubled
since the start of the war.
Besides home manufacture
there have been very consider
able imports of planes from
America, and a goodly number
of French planes went to Eng
land when France collapsed.
Yesterday Washington said that
this country would do all it
could to meet a British request
for 3,000 planes a month
throughout 1941 and 1942.
It is clear from this program
that England is looking beyond
mere defense, and Intends to try
to carry the war to Germany
in due course.

vitamin B along with digitalis gave
more strikingly beneficial results In

"TRUE enough. Conscription is
foreign to this country's
ideals.
Still, ideals WITHOUT PRO
TECTION aren't much good.
France has just proved that.
THIS is the great pity:
Three years ago the United
States Ithrough its authorized
spokesman, the President) be
gan to butt into the affairs of
the rest of the world, talking
publicly of "quarantining" ag
gressor nations whose aggies
sions were not directed at us.
If. instead, we had then served
notice on all the world that we
would STAY OUT of other
people's quarrels but would Im
mediately take steps to become
so strong that NOBODY would
dare to make a pasr at what Is

scription now.
IF FORESIGHT could only be
as clear as hindsight, there
would be fewer mistakes in this
world. The trouble with hind
sight is that usually it comes too
late to do any good.
Its like remembering after
you've smashed your thumb that
if you'd been more careful with
the hammer it wouldn't have

THE
CAPITAL
PARADE
By JOSEPH ALSOP and
ROBERT KINTNE"
Released by the North
American Newspaper
Alliance. Inc.
Washington. July 26. The
experts hesitate to make exact
predictions, but are inclined to
expect the all-out attack on
England within the next four
days. For those watching the
European conflict with the
slightest sense of its import to
the United States, time now
passes slowly, hour piling upon
hour. Every minute of every
day is filled with, the unbear
able suspense of the few in
stants between the first thun
dering roar of the mountain
avalanche, and the moment
when the fate of the peaceful
valley town is finally decided.
There Is no use trying to estimate
the odds. German air superiority Is
stm Immense. British naval power,
already hampered by having to guard
the long line of communications
through the Mediterranean, wtll be
at a disadvantage In the narrow
wafers of the channel. Those who
think that the brute power of ma
chines la now all that counte give
England almost no chance at a'l.
Those who still place soma value on
morale believe that England la an
even net.
What courage wtll be shown by
the English, the days of Dunkerque
have alreaav proved. A lone woman
who left her bouse on the channel,
crossed to Dunkerque In an open
boat, fished two eoldtera out of the
Inferno of the harbor and brought
tbem safely borne. She may be taken
aa a symbol of the spirit with which
the English people are meeting their
great test. Aa for the horrors ahead,
they too have been foreshadowed.
Two flights of German bombers. 400
eacn. in 13 minutes levelled a square
mile of aurrendered Rotterdam and
killed many Innocent people.
A single night of bombers utterly
wiped out the prosperous French
town of Glen. klir.g over a third
of the nopu'atlon. and leaving all
but a handful of the rest wounded
and maimed. These bombers are
symbols of what the English must
I expect.
In this tiny moment In time before
the horrors have materialized, the
Inexplicable puzzle la the attitude of
the men here In Washington who
fully grasp the situation. The presi
dent and his entourage, the leading
officials of the etate department, the
government economists, the chief
men of the war and navy depart
mints all these are In substantial
agreement on the meaning to this
country of England's fate.
If England goea under, the war
dfpartment antlclpatea outbreaks of
really serious trouble In South Amer
ica In a few weeks. The navy depart
ment frankly lives In acute fear of
the day when the remalna of the
British navy and the great British
shipyards may be In German handa.
The state department shudders at
the mere thought of the diplomatic
problems German victory will raise.
And the leading government econo
mists openly prophesy thst with Hit
ler rullnr all Eiirope and a vast
colonial empire as the greatest slave
state In world history, the American
economy will not long survive In Its
present shape.
The picture Is dark Indeed. To
brighten It there are only a few
hopeful expedlenta such aa the etate
departments hemispheric cooperstlve
plan now being discussed at Havana,
which even lta sponsors admit is
too grandiose and difficult of execu
tion to be a sure reliance. Yet. all
thla being known to every moderately
well-informed man. no one seems to
be surprised thst nothing more la
being done to help England.
There are many thlnge which
England now desperately needs. So
serious Is her sltuaUon. ao close
may be the struggle, that a mere
handful of destroyers, a few hundred
pilots or a couple of hundred long
range bombing planea may perhaps
decide the outcome In England's
favor. And there can be no doubt
thst from the president down, the
great majority of Important men In
the executive branch of the govern
ment would like to supply England's
needs with everything In tbelr power
to give. The president makes no
bones about his Inclinations In his
private talk. Neither do any of the
men around him.
They take It for granted that the
only question to be properly consid
ered in supplying England la how
far It la wtee to weaken our national
defense In a gamble on England's
survival. They assume without dlr
cusslna the matter that unneutral
I acta against Germany are of no
Importance, since a victorious Ger
many will deal with the Unttd
States In accord with ber crude
interesta. and not In obedience to
the rules of International law.
Tet nothing la done, either to give
the people some sense of the acute
nees of the situation, or to offer
England such practical aid aa
within our poaer. Men like Senators
B irton K Wheeler. Bennett Champ
Clark and David I. Wslsh seem to
have paralyzed the administration.
ot only haa the president immensely
restricted hts former ald-the-alllee
poli.-y. as being too difficult under
the present law; he haa also firmly
resisted several men around him who
want him to demand a change In
the law. If he told the country the
situation exactly aa he sees It. such
a change might be procured despite
all the objections of the Walshes
