Robert F. Rich of Lycoming county gets from being the only mem- ber of the State's delegation in the House of Rep- resentatives who voted against the $§7,000,000,000 Brit- ish Ald bill, is hard to understand, Refusing to for- get politics for patriotism Mr. Rich stands out as the ione objector to the defense measure. To add silliness to stubbornness he told the House that if it would appropriate $5000000 he'd use it to "get 10 red-blooded Americans to go over and get Hitler” Asked by Rep. O'Neill of Kentucky how he would meet the threat of Hitler, Rich made his suggestion for the 10-man expeditiontry force, amid boos and catcalls from the floor. Why not introduce the “Kind- hearted” Rich to Mr. Ford and arrange for another “peace ship?” Passage of the $7.000000000 Lease-Lend appro- priation is now assured. Many members of Congress, who opposed the Lease-Lend Bill, now take the pos- tion that it has become national policy which should be supported to whatever extent necessary, Certain- ly, passage of such an appropriation bill gives ample notice to the world Yast this country understands the magnitude of its task, While a smaller appro- priation would have — sufficient to cover imme- diate needs, most of the congressional leaders con- sidered it advisable to make the appropriation im- mediately for its effect upon the nations of the world. While there is no reason for the average Am- erican to become hysterical, {t should be apparent to all citizens, from the sbove figures, that officials charged with the responsibility of directing the destinies of this country, are convinced that it is In serlous peril. No other situation would justify such enormous expenditures, Ever since ‘he Pilgrim Fathers came to America, observance of the Sabbath Day has been tradi- tional. On that day a goodly portion of the citizens find their way into churches, One of the first pro- clamations of communism was against the church and against the observance of the Sabbath Day. Communism started breaking down the Sabbath Day, making it an “open Sunday.” different in no par- ticular essential from any other day of the week. Legislation has been offered at Harrisburg to make the Sabbath Day an open Sunday. Do we want that in Pennsylvania? Do we want to break down the Sabbath as it has been broken down in Russia? Do we want our churches to close, do We want to lose the influence of religion? Do we wish to sacrifice freedom of worship in favor of bingo games, horse races and liquor parties? The most consistent sinner in Centres county, if he is true to himself, could hardly wich that, and we do not believe the legis- ators at Harrisburg wish it either, Not as patriots in a free land they don't, he RPC, through a subsidiary, will take over around $350,000,000 of British investments in defense plants in this country, but the British will go on paying for defense orders as long as they have dol- lors or gold with which to pay. While the Lease Lend Act will provide new weapons for the British they will not be relieved of obligations assumed prior to the passage the bill Rogsevelt oul th 5 WAS welcomed Lhe new al sea the American public was told that very unusual, and that a precedent had been smashed.

This unity will continue to prevail as long as the Nazis can make the people of Germany believe that victory is "just around the corner” and that there fire spoils galore for the Germans if victory is at- ained. The time to talk a negotiated peace will arrive when Hitler's army has been severely defeated and the Nazl pretense of superiority has been shattered upon the battlefield, It is a bloody requirement but it is a requirement At the psychological] moment the British may be able to weaken the German morale Ly disclosing their intention to be generous in making peace but that time has not yet arrived.
