ARMY Now-
But STILL
Behind the Plow
A SOLDIER'S first duty Is
not to die for his country,
but to survive and let the
enemy do the dying. This, too,
is true of a soldier called Bust
ntst. It's in the Army now. Al
though (till behind the plow,
the counter, and the lathe, Busi
ness has become our second line
of ofjemi.
As a soldier, it's the first
duty of Business to keep alive
and fit. Yet survival is often
a problem bordering life in a
fox-hole particularly for Lit
tie Business, which is really
vastly bigger than Big Business.
Everywhere Chambers of Com
merce are easing the strain.
In the West, where there's
Infinitely more Little Business
than Big, Chambers of Com
merce sre helping Business rus
tle its own rations, wangle its
own equipment, and keep its
powder dry. Standard is back
ing up appreciation of a grand
job by renewing its member
ships in 370 such organizations.
Wartime dislocations arc
likely to make a company like
ours look for places to trim
sail. But this is no such place.
Instead, Standard is aiding
Chambers of Commerce, even
in communities where ft has
neither offices nor employees.
It's another investment in
America for today, and for
tomorrow.

LONG WAR: SAYS
J. R. Young in Talk at High
School, Cites Vital Lack
of Materials and Food.
"Japan cannot win a long war
with the allied nations," declared
James R. Young, former corres
pondent in Tokyo and the Far
East, who lectured before a large
audience at the high school audi
torium last night. "She has no
great reserves of essential mate
rials and food and will not be
able to bring these from conquer
ed territory in any considerable
quantity. When ships are sunk
and planes brought down, Japan
has no replacements."
Mr. Young said Japan counted
on delivering a knockout blow in
the first few months of the war
and having failed in this had lost
the war in spite of the impressive
early victories. He also warned
against the beginnings of a move
ment to sue for a negotiated
peace, pointing out that a great
many people would be deluded
in this because it was cloaked in
religion. "The recent dispatch
from Japan quoting the nation a
Christian leader as saying Jap
anese people prayed daily for
peace was cooked up for release
in this country alone. Use ot the
word 'peace' Is forbidden in
Japan and people are forbidden
to congregate In numbers for
prayer. He further asserted
that "it is Impossible to nego
tiate with thugs and gangsters."
U. S. Policy Blamed
Mr. Young laid'a great deal of
blame for the war in the Pacific
on the United States foreign pol
icy, pointing out that had the
state department pursued a firm
er policy beginning with Japan's
invasion of Manchuria, war
would In all probability have
been averted. "The planes which
bombed Pearl Harbor probably
used gasoline bought from this
country last summer," he said.
He denounced "cream puff diplo
macy" and asserted that many
of the leading men in the state
department controlling the Far
Eastern policy had never been in
the Orient and had no first hand
knowledge ot conditions or the
workings of the Oriental mind.
A much stricter policy should
be enforced at once in regard to
enemy aliens in this country, the
speaker declared. "The Japan
ese are a tricky people," he
warned, "and it is Impossible to
tell a loyal alien from the fifth
columnist in most cases. They
should be all interned in concen
tration camps for the duration of
the war."
Blow Long Planned
Copies of maps and books
taken from Japanese which out
line In detail the attack upon
Pearl Harbor and subsequent
events were displayed by Mr.
Young. He also displayed a copy
of a report of a meeting of the
Black .Dragon Society held In
J).pan last August at which plans
for the attack upon this country
were made. These reports were
laid before the state department
and other officials long before
December, Mr. Young asserted,
but were brushed aside with the
reply "peaceful negotiations are
in progress."
Mr. Young stated that as In
many other nations, the mass of
the people are opposed to aggres
sive wars and that Japanese pris
ons are full of people who at
tempted to slop the activities of
the Japanese army and of the
Black Dragon society. He also
said that the emperor Is kept
virtual prisoner and hear only
what his advisors want him to
hear. When interviews are sought
with the emperor the reply is
"God cannot be disturbed."
It Is not impossible that the
Japanese will attempt an in
vasion of the Pacific coast In
dustrial areas, Mr. Young de
clared, because the soldiers are
unconcerned at the prospect of
death. Mr. Young added that he
felt it extremely unlikely that
the United States navy would
permit any considerable force to
reach the Pacific coast.
Japan Vulnerable
Mr. Young predicted that
within a short time Japanese in
dustrial cities would be reduced
to virtual ruins by allied bomb
ers. He pointed out that once
reached, the nation presents an
easy bombing problem with all
Industries located In a small
heavily congested area approxi
