Undoubtedly labor leaders have made mistakes and unions have given members bad advice, This is admittedly true but, in the main, we retain confidence in the good judg- ment of laborers who will not let the nation down The trouble naturally arises when workmen know that industry is cashing in on the defense program This. it seems, is inevitable as there is no clear way to “take the profit out of war.” Consequently, work- men argue that they should share in the profils and while the argument has reason, any attempt to implement it puts upon labor the burden of tak- ing the offensive which upsets the status quo and leads many peopls to believe that labor is alone blame for all strikes The seizure of Italian, Danish and German ships in American harbors, followed by similar action in other Latin-American countries, reveals evidence of sabotage on the part of the Axis crews, Undoubtedly, the men on German and Italian ships had orders to wreck the vital parts of their vessels and this is . sinister in that it implies a decision by the owners to destroy their ships rather than let them serve the needs of the democracies. The United States, in seizing the vessels acted under ample legal author- ity. The fact that many of the ships were damaged is proof that delay In taking the drastic action would have permitted further destruction. That Ger- many and Italy will not like the seizure of their ves- sels and the internment or prosecution of their sail- ors, goes without saying. The action of the United States is based upon the simple necessity of the present situation and evidences a complete disre- gard of what the Axis powers think about the con. duct of this country. It is positive proof that follow- ing the lease-lend policy, our action is to be based solely upon what will help defeat the totalitarian combination and that the reaction of Berlin ana Rome are of no consequence GERMAN “GENEROSITY” In the early part of March, Vice-Premier Fran- cols Darlan, of France, sald that the Germans had released wheat to the Vichy government and he ad- ded, “The Germans in this instance have been more generous and humanitarian than the British.” This is the same admiral who threatens to use the warships of France to convoy foodstuffs into his country, expressing willingness, if necessary, to give battle to the British fleet that is enforcing the blockade, It is now revealed that what the Germans did, in regards to wheat, was to offer to send into the unoccupied zone 800.000 tons of wheat 200000 tons of sugar, 100.000 tons of bran and 300,000 tons of po- tatoes, No gift was made, In return, unoccupied France was to send to the Germans in the occupied zone 190.000 head of cattle, 600000 head of small live- stock, 800.000 calves and hogs, 36000 tons of table ofl, 100.000 tons of salt, 60,000 tons of fresh veget- ables, 8000 tons of cheese and a large quantity of wine, It looks like the unoccupied region Is paying a fair price for the stuff that the Germans are to send in from occupied France, especially when you con. sider that the OCerman army, In occupied areas, requisi’ions what It wants from the of that area. If there is any generosity and h tarianism involved, we can't see it. Proprietors THE CENTRE DEMOCRAT, BELLEFONTE, PA. April 10, 1941, te a ——— THE PEOPLE AND THEIR HIGHWAYS (Harrisburg Patriot) Under the pressure of a formidable lobby, as charged on the floor, the bill permitting 50,000 pounds of truck to rumble over Pennsylvania's high- ways has passed the House, Two hopes remain that dtivérs of smaller ve- hicles will not be crowded off the highways their license fees have built. One Is that the bill will be defeated In the Senate, and, if not, that Governor James will veto it. Either one or both of these guarantees can be galned by the people themselves. All the public needs to do is let the legislators know that twenty- five tons of swaying, growling trucks, the size of railroad freight cars, do not belong on highways which must be shared by trucks of smaller size and of the infinitely greater number of passenger cars If questions of damage to road surface and un- falr competition to railroads were not involved and even if the danger factor could be eliminated, the drivers of passenger cars would still have a genuine right to protest against giant vehicles which by sight and noise alone add hazards to the drivers of small- er cars That only a powerful lobby could force passage of such legislation is apparent, Legislators left to their own sense of justice to the vast majority of highway users, would not legalize “box cars” on mo- tor highways unless heavy pressure were used, It is just that which makes credible the reports on Capi tol Hill that a “deal” of some sort was hatched to get the support of dairy interests in return for pig- ecn-holing a bill which would have repealed the law which compels certain persons on relief to spend rioney for milk whether or not they want or need i If such a “deal” was consumated then the whole transaction is “twice cursed.” That mandatory milk law is another perfect example of the power of the lcbbyists, It was engineered to benefit the dairy in- terests. It is so absurd that persons on relief must spend part of their limited income for milk when the money should be #pent to serve a more important dietary purpose Nobody but the dairy interests want the law Everybody else is against it. If instead of being re- pealed it is to be retained and ail as part of a deal to get “box cars” on the highways, then the people have lost contiol of their Legislature to the lobbyists and had better arouse themselves 1f dairy interests can force their wares on relief folks, then clothing merchants could demand that part of a relief check must be spent for overcoats or fancy or candy merchants could insist that 5 per cent of every relief check be spent with them. When lobbying attains such strength, government of, for and by the people becomes an empty phrase vests. FIRST IN EIGHTEEN YEARS The 35000-ton battleship North Carolina was placed in active service on April 8th. It is the first battleship to be built in the United States in eighteen years and was commissioned nearly three months ahead of schedule The and most formidable fighting ship in the world” will have a complement of 1500 of- ficers and men. She will carry nine 16-inch guns each zixty feet long. and they will hurl some twent) tons of TNT every sixty seconds on a target eighteen miles away The battleship is a costly vessel, The North Caro- lina represents an expenditure of $67.725500. This is enough to bulld many schoolhouses bul few Ameri- cans today regret the money that is in her hull and machinery "newest knots.

Four more will be ready in a year Afterwards battleships will steam from construction yards at the rate of six or more a year, and some of then will be almost twice the size of the North Carolina TWO-WAY TOLERANCE NECESSARY A leaflet recently published by the Conference of Christ.ans and Jews says “We of the United States are One-third of a million Indian One-third of a million Oriental, Mexican “60.000 000 Anglo-8B8axon; 10000000 Irish “15.000 000 Teutonic: 9.000000 Slavic “5 000000 Italian; 4.000000 Scandinavian 2.000000 French: 13000000 Negro “1.000000 each Pinns, Lithuanian, Greek." In addition, according to the same authority, National Filipino and Are 2.000000 Anglican-Episcopalian “40,000000 Evangelical Protestant “1.000000 Greek Catholic “22.000 000 Roman Catholic “4.500.000 Jew “Two-thirds of a million Mormon “One-ten‘h of a million Quaker “One and one-half million Christian Scientists.” These figures give us some idea of the radical and religious mixture that makes up the people of the United States. It stresses the importance of racial and religious tolerance. This is an obligation which rests upon all Americans, regardless of the group to which they belong. It must be practiced by minor- ities as well as majorities, which is a fact often overlooked. HERE'S A PLEASANT HOPE We hope farm prices rise because there is noth- ing that we can think of that will do the country as much good as genuine prosperity for agriculture. Bince 1021, the farmers of the United States have been taking it on the chin with the result that the economic balance of the United States has been de- stroyed. Once farm buying-power is adequately re- stored, there is a chance that the United States can enjoy something like permanent prosperity for many years, Personally. we realize that prosperity is a dan- gerous state. The farmers of the nation enjoyed it for a few years, during and alter the first World War, and it almost ruined many of them. Tt had its eflect upon other citizens, as well, Maybe, we have been in the valley long enough fo be able to stand on the summit and enjoy brighter days. We hope so! SECRECY SHOULD BE HAD Mr. Frank Knox, Secretary of the Navy, has re- quested newspapers, broadcasting companies and picture services to refrain from reporting the move- ments of damaged British ships that come to the United States for repairs. He says, what every sensible person understands, that such information may be of great value to the enemies of Creat Britain, The press, screen and radio should respect the request that comes from the Becretary of the Navy. If it is not complied with, the Congress should pass legislation to compel the secrecy desired. Of course, there will be a number of DEWspapérs, and other speakers, to assall such a law as censor. ship, and an infringement upon the freedom of the press and of speech, but they will be mistaken, [one of the new-fangled water closets, Accordingly fine old Victorian manner, wrote a note to the farmer which read UKE | jor's way, er else—he gits his walk- | | stand for “Wesleyan Chapel.” Write and tell them we do have one” city THE LOUISA’S Orrick CAT LETTER “A Little Nonsense Now and Then, | —— Is Relished by the Wisest Men” | I am almost ffteen and rather large for my age.
