WOUNDED The soldiers of the United States will receive the finest medical care that science and lavish funds can provide, which Is as it should be The Army has evacuated 30.000 soldiers in flying hospitals, with the loss of only two patients. It has plans to use helicopters to remove wotinde«dd men from the battlefield and gliders, with operating rooms, will also be used to save our soldiers In every war theater and they are staffed by Equipment is equal to that treatment of wounded soldiers has established elaborate hospitals best medical . men in the world hospital, with every facility for the the Army NO MIRACLES AHEAD The American public is gradually acquiring the idea that when the war ends the nation will be flooded with actions new devices as in- dustrialists lure the spending power that has been built up by war con- ditions It is just as well to get rid of the notion. There will be no sudden outburst of dream products. Gradual improvement of many devices will arrive but buyers will not the opportunity to revolutionize living conditions through startling inventions The way some people are talking about post-war miracles one would think that a new electrical stove is being prepared that will not only wake up and cook ham and eggs for the family breakfast but that it will have a device that will automatically produce the food have PANTELLERIA AND MALTA There are some people who wonder why Pantelleria succumbed so swiftly to aerial bombardment when Malta, under attack from the begin- ning of the war. managed to hold out The aerial attack upon Pantelleria was, no doubt, more intense than that visited upon Malta, but of this we are not certain. The difference however, is that Malta was never without the range of reinforcements and, despite all that the Axis did, the British rammed convoys into Malta at regular intervals Pantelleria was absolutely blockaded. Italy could send no supplies to the beseiged islanders. The British navy eliminated all hope of rein- forcements and, under aerial pounding, there was nothing left for the defenders but to surrender, UNDERRATING MR. WILLKIE A poll of Republican Congressmen, reported by Representative Leo Allen, of Illinois, reveals that Dewey is the favorite hope of Republican Congressmen. The New York Governor is given 51 votes, Gen. MacAr- thur 33, Gov. Bricker 32, and Wendell Willkie 13, just two more than Senator Taft, of Ohio We hold no brief for candidate Willkie but if the Republicans in Congress think that this poll i= any measure of his strength they should take a hand primary among Republicans who are not sitting in Con- gress. The truth is probably that the poll reflects isolationist sentiment among the House Republicans. Naturally Mr. Willkie's international views arc not liked by the boys who have been busy for many vears at- tempting to prevent this country from developing an intelligent foreign policy LET'S BE DISCONTENTED Remember when you could pile into the car and go anywhere you pleased for a weekend or a vacation; when you could get a taxi at any time and ride in lonely splendor. when you were urged to buy the finest foods in the stores, in quantities; when you could get a Pullman berth shortly before your train left the station; when you could pay your income taxes out of petty cash; when that young friend or relative was safe at home, and never expected to go any farther away than Atlantic City or Peoria? How times have changed in a short year or two! return to our old easy-going ways! The only way back now, of course, is straight ahead-—ahead over a course that may be worse for many of us before it gets better. But we can shorten the course by bending our every effort to getting through. We can hasten the return of unlimited motoring if each of us will limit his driving severely now. Unhampered travel will be ours the soon- er if we will eliminate all unnecessary trips in public conveyances, We will cut short the life of food rationing if we obey the rules to the letter, We will reduce our taxes and bring more of our boys home if we are dili- gent in buying War Bonds, collecting scrap, saving fats, giving blood to the Red Cross, raising victory gardens, and all the other little odd jobs that are the civilian's share in the war effort, ° In other words. let's get down to work and get this thing over with as quickly as possible. Let's not forget that every little bit helps. Let's get redlly discontented properly and intelligently discontented with our times and the conditions under which we must live Pittsburgh How we'd like to ——— a —— are the been their » never os bowel 0 an wotlld be more nappy retorts he name-calling man has the rig : world an t biect it to fear, embarrass. ment and a feeling of insecurity Such people will surely get their reward, for Jesus sald “Whosoever | shall offend one of these Hitls ones, it were better for him that a mill. stone were hanged about his neck and he were cast into the sea” LOUISA ——— -~ -~ rei There were 1007 School Rev.
