EDITORIAL
God moves for the good of the world when the
good people of the world move In the same direc-
tion.
After reading about the battling on the Ger-
man-Russian border, we are about to revise our
opinion of the Russians.
Hitler is a cynical traitor to his own pledged
words—soothing words in the winter, bombs and
tanks in the spring.
Wendell Willkie, Republican Presidential can-
didate in 1940, says: “I am the first full generation
of my family to enjoy American freedom, and I
don't want to be the last.”
A $70,000,000 pipe Hne, with dally capacity of
250,000 barrels of oil, has been recommended by Sec-
retary Ickes. It would run from Texas to the At.
lantic Coast via Wood River, Illinois
The Unitéd States has offered to buy substan
tial materials from Russia, including manganese
and chrome ores. Russia would use the cash to buy
war materials in this country. The main difficulty
in the tiade is the long haul from Russian mines
to Viadivosiok, where shipments would begin the
jong route across the Pacific.
Winston Churchill, fighting leader of the British
Empire, says that the agreement with Russia is “an
ellidnce antl the Russian people are now our allies”
This is, of course, common sense Nothing is to be
served by those who insist that the democracies
fighting Hitler ‘continue to slap the Soviet govérn-
ment in the face. Whether we like communism, or
or not, has nothing to do with the present cafn-
paign against Germany The Soviet soldiers have
fought a splendid fight against considerable odds,
despite threatened defeat, have acquitted themselves
much better than expected, The stubborn resist.
ance of Red soldiers of Communist Russia serves the
cause of civilization today, whether so intended or
not, Hitler and Germany would like nothing better
than for the democracies to become too snooty to
cooperate with the Reds and if the democracies fall
into such error, they will demonstrate an amazingly
foolish leadership.
THE APOSTLES OF DEFENSE
If there is one argument that the isolationist
spokesmen have repeated more often than any other
it is the argument that the United States should
avoid foreign action in order to be strong at home,
The United States must make itself impregnable on
these shores. Again and again Lindbergh and Hoo-
ver, Wheeler, Nye, Reynolds and the rest have re-
iterated this great principle. They have been un-
wearied in their devotion to rearmament here One
of their main reasons, indeed for opposing ald to
Britain is the allegation that this would detract from
the domestic defense effort,
Then, all at once, a very serious threat to the
progress of domestic rearmament appears, General
Marshall testifies that if the one-year service term
is not extended our trained forces “will largely meit
away.” He submits, “on the basis of cold logic, that
the virtual disbandment or immobilization of two-
thirds of our trained enlisted strength and three-
fourths of our trained officer personnel at this time
might well involve a national tragedy” Whose
voices are Instantly raised to insist upon this wreck-
ing of the defense system? None other than the
voices of the isolationists, who are so devoted
making the United States strong against all comers.
What is the matter with these gentlemen? Are
they so carried away by their jaundiced emotions
that they cannot understand the meaning of their
own words? Or do they wish the nation to believe
that all their enthusiasm for an impregnable na-
tional defense was a disingenuous cover for very
different motives? What do they want to defend?
And how?-—-New York Herald Tribune (Rep.)

WILL HITLER ATTACK IRELAND?
Responsible officials in the United States believe
that when Hitler decides to attack Great Britain he
will attempt to seize Ireland.
Once in possession of the island he would be able
to flank England, sever the life-line to America and
launch an invasion against the west coast of Scot
land and England,
The Irish republic asserts {t will defend itself
against any attack, with some emphas® on the
“un,” which means the Hritish as well as the Ger-
mans. The Irish, however, are relatively unarmed
and despite their reputation as a fighting race would
be dependent upon British protection if the Ger-
mans opened up.
Facing this danger the Irish seek to secure arms
from the United States and refuse to consider per-
mitting the British to use abandoned naval bases,
The search for arms Is understandable and the Irish
attitude, on naval bases, is that if the British are
permitted to use them, the Germans will begin im-
mediate attacks upon the island
We think the Irish attitude is understandable
even if one disagrees entirely with its wisdom. Cer-
tainly, a victorious Germany will mean the end of
Irish freedom, regardless of Irish courage and de-
termination which are poor substitutes in modern
warfare, for tanks airplanes and guns
WHAT ABOUT INTERNAL
CONDITIONS?
The International situation, according to Repre-
sentative May, of Kentucky, chairman of the House
Military committee, “Is even more serious than the
general public understands and is rapidly becoming
more serious.’
We agreed with the Kentucky Congressman and
while facing the facts of the present situation 1t
might as well be admitted that the internal situa-
tion In this country is more serious than the general
public understands and is rapidly becoming more
serious
As Gen. Marshall told members of Congress
yesterday there is an organized effort underway to
induce draftees, or their parents, to petition Con-
gress against the extension of thelr service Lt
Gen. Drum, of the First Army, reports an effort to
Induce draftees Ww petition Congress, which is an
unheard of proposition and ranks with political
commissars that go with some Russian detachments
There is no limit to what some men in Congress
will do in order to hamper the declared for elgn pol-
icy of this country. They are pushing forbearance to
the limit and approaching close to becoming enemies
of the republic. If war develops, we doubt if the na-
tion could count upon their discretion, their cooper-
ation or their loyalty
JAPAN'S PROGRAM IS PLAIN
Since 1931 the Japanese have been engaged In
what they call the creation of a co-prospective area
in the Par East. They have been working sincere-
ly, according to Tokyo, to establish peace They have
been extremely anxious for the world to understand
the noble motives that govern their conduct
Some people have fallen for the hokum
fact Is that Japan is a full-fledged partner with
Germany in a plot to dominate the world. The
Tokyo spokesmen blow hot and cold, as it seems best
at the time, but you can understand Japanese for-
eign policy only on the assumption that the motive
is robbery, even if there is dispute as to the time
and the method
The only way that the United States can escape
a conflict with the Japanese is for this country to
acquiesce in Japanese domination of the Far Eest
Just the same the only way this country can ex-
pect peace with a dominant Hitler fs to cooperate
with the Nazis as a junior partner Neither CGer-
many nor Japan has any idea of giving up ambitious
aggressions unless brought to a halt by superior
force
Whether the Japs will attack Russia in the Far
East is to be decided, not by the terms of any treoty,
Mt by answering a simple question, “Can the Rus-
sians be taken successfully?” The same rule ap-
plies Lo thé Netherlands Indies, Singapore, the Phil-
ippines and the United Sates ilsell
The
INFLATION MUST BE AVOIDED
Frankly, we do not know whether the readers
of The Centre Democrat have any idea of the havoe
that can be wrought in this country if inflationary
tendencies develop into a genuine booming of prices
such as the nation witnessed during the World War
era
Those who were living after the end of that
epic struggle, and especially Individuals who had ob-
ligations, can well remember the tragic episode that
developed with deflation, applied in the Bummer of
1920. It Is'not too much to assert that the nation,
and particularly our farmers, have never recovered
from the beating that was taken then
It is mighty easy to encourage rising prices,
with speculators and nibbling citizens intrigued by
sudden profits, but the aftermath will be a catas-
trophe that no one can contemplate philosophically
alter the earlier experience of the country
Steps should be taken, immediately to put an
end to the dangerous game that ig now underway.
It will take resolution by Congressmen and officials
to nip the blooming profits that entire nesudo.pat.
riots, who talk glibly about nationa] defense, but
the long-run welfare of the country demands that
every precaution be used to avoid the calamities
that followed the 1920 debacle
LOYALTY OF CITIZENS
Proof that many American citizens of German
birth are as loyal as native sons to the Flag of this
Country comes in the organization of the “Loval
Americans of German Descent” and their stinging
rebuke to Hitler.
Headed by a member of the New York Legisia-
ture and a college president, these Germans or de-
scendants of Germans issued a manifesto in which
“we challenge Adolf Hitler's claim that 10,000.000
Americans of German descent are bound by ties of
blood to follow him as leader. *. * * The more the
gangsters in Germany rage against the United
States, the sturdier must be our demonstrated devo-
tion to this, our Country.”
Such an utterance surprises none who know the
loyalty of the legions of German born and German
descent who despise utterly the cruelties and bar-
barities of the Nazis. While {t is the part of wisdom
to be watchful of Hitler-led agents and dupes, it is
just as wise to recognize the loyalty of the German
citizen without a hyphen.Harrisburg Patriot,
SINKING GERMAN SHIPS
One interesting development of the war in Eu-
rope has been recent British attacks upon Axis ship-
ping, with important results claimed by London.
The experts explain that heavy damage has
been done to the rail transportation facilities of
Germany, These were overtaxed in years of peace
and now that the Nazi army is scattered throughout
the continent they are entirely unequal to the great
task of moving men and materials,
The Germans, it is sald, have been forced to at-
tempt the use of coastal shipping, both in the north
of Europe and in the Mediterranean, British sube
marines and aircraft have made it their business to
attack these ships, giving the Germans a taste of
their own naval warfare.
TWO OUT OF 30,000!
Nearly thirty thousand “ideas” have been sub-
mitted to the National Inventors’ Council by Ameri.
