Significantly, they urge a sales tax of ten and eight per cent respectively. It requires no for- tune telling to realize that such a levy would make it unnecessary to Plate heavy taxes on business. IS ITALY IN THE WAR? While we cannot subscribe to the widely advo- cated plan to beat the Axis by invading Italy, the weakest member, we are constantly amazed at the reluctance of many Americans to conclude that the Italians are at war with the United States, Last week the Rome Foreign Office recounted tlie success of an Italian submarine, operating off the coast of the United States, A few days later Ameri- can bombers paid their respects to Italian cruisers with good effect. The Italians, except in Africa, have been strange. ly ignored in the present warfare. It might be a good idea, along with the bombing of Cerman Industries, to pay some atlention to the Italian war plant, |] Lb i i: AWAKE MY SOUL! at is America’s need--the awakening of the That also Is what Germany most fears and her dupes and hirelings are fighting hardest to pre yeu Man's strength is the strength of ten soul 1s moved soul what " when stretching IL seems the awakening--she is with vigor but task ahead soul is nerve and pressing on when we think of National salvation going forth wild only America’s every low the 0 Oul We the yg new 1 prey as n Hope the African hunter into the stiffening of every Against Such beasts of every ideal and are like beasts and afeguard rampant societ of the Ow are WE RInst vilized list) of defense nerve sy POOL against that muscle IY } held * hands ol and Americs Halt Awake aanger ahd with CONVOY SAVES 1.796 OF 1.500 SHIPS BOMBS THAT HU RT HITLER M Reied iy 3 200 st Osu ves abirueck. 200 bomb.

This policy is official with the Nazis. Conse- quently, the crime is that of those who direct Ger- many, rather than that of the soldiers who execute the brutal orders. The punithment should visit the smug officials who lay down the rules. They should not escape responsibility for their brutality because of official positions. FRAUDS AGAINST GOVERNMENT As a part of the national defense program, in 1940, the government entered into a contract to re construct the idle Cramp Shipyards at Philadelphia to build naval vessels, A contractor was engaged to do the work on a cost-plus fixed fee basis. What happened? Well, the Federal Trade Commission charges collusion and frandulent bidding for electrical and construction material used in the work. It alleges that fictitious bids were submitted and that competition was elim« inated on certain materials, Another case of the same type comes from Phil. adelphia, where the grand jury is investigating charges that a manufacturing firm, supposed to make uniforms for the Army, received the government cloth, already cut, to be processed, and that it with. held parts of the stock for its own use. There has been comparatively little publicity given these two Instances, both arising in the City of Brotherly Love, For some reason th nifesta- tions of business do not seem to w cent men peoples, ' ii pe Orrice CAT “A Little Nonsense Now and Then, Is Relished by the Wisest Men” 3) THE "Em the Pass “Sammy Salt Teacher Sammy name mustard vinegar All, four i { Please BCALIIS nda pepper * & 0 Valuable Dog When trouble a certain citizen And } wi aw hi woted t I've con Well, 1 know he ayiul!
