The fait that air ahundaiice of food Hoy: Member: TIGHTEN BOTH ALL much In these days, with the public gaze fastened on war outside our continental holders, it may seem prosaic and uninteresting to talk of taxation, debt, and government fiscal jiolicy. Hut the haul fact is that we must talk and act on those matters if our kind of government, our kind of life, is to suivive. Fiscal mklcssness has been the tuin of many a government of the ast. A new tax lull is now being planned. And, after all possible souices of new (ax levenue have been tapjaid to the limit, many believe that a system of forced savings will he the next inevitable step.

As the jieoile tighten their belts, so must government tighten its belt. According to authorities, the cost of government could he cut about $2,000,(100,000 a year without function. eliminating any essential To save that much money is vital to the morale of the ulilic. It would non-defen- demonstiate that their government realized the gravity of the situation and was doing what it asks them to do. Wc must condition ourselves to the times we live in. Those who have been living off government depression spending must learn that it cannot go on. The communities which have a habit of asking for and receiving help from the federal treasury whenever they wanted it, must learn that they must again stand on their own feet. War has two phases a strong military power at the front, and a sound economic system at home. We have the military power and it is growing in strength fast. Now we must give attention to building up our financial bulwarks. This holt tightening must go on in Washington as well as in the average American home, even at the expense of many pet jiolitiral projects. Mistress: Did letters, Nora?"

Little guys made this country. I hey came here from everywhere to U'tablish freedom and escape tyranny. They landed in a wilderness. They were often cold and hungry. They seldom became rich. But they kept faith. They built the homes and cleared the land and raised the children. They fought the wars of the , past, just as they are fighting this The little guys were proud and strong and confident of the future, and the great land in which we live is their gift to us, the little guys of the present. Little guys built the industries of this country. They saved a few dollars and put them into a store or a bank or a factory of some kind. Much of the They took chances. time they lost, but that didnt dismay war. them. They saved a few more JHDVSTRIAI dol- lars and took new chances. They didn't laugh when some visionary crime along with an idea the wiseacre's said was obviously insane the ti lephone, for instance, or the automobile, or a Ian for lighting homes with electricity. There might be something in it, they thought, and they played the long shot. For the visionaries with the ideas were the same kind of jieople little guys trying to get ahead, little guys trying to build and create. And some of them went from shacks to mansions in a year or two, and a year or two later weie hack in the shacks starting again. They always started again. It was in their blood, their bone, their character. The little guys didnt give up. All of this country is a monument to the little guy. All of our industries, our farms, our homes, our resources the little guys did the work. went into the oil fields and ought out the black gold. They dug in the earth and gave us our oal and metals. A few became famous, but the millions remained unknown. They worked and died in obscurity, but this country is an everlasting monument to their deathless pint which lives on. lhat is the ideal we Americans They hi Wat brings many a menace to the people at home, no less than to the fighting forces on the battlefront, One of these menaces is fire. We must expect efforts to destroy American producing facilities through sabotage. That happened in the last war and it will undoubtedly happen again. The torch and the bomb are the saboteurs principal weapons. The civil defense organizations which are being established in all sections of the country should be trained to combat this danger. The regular police and fire forces cannot do it all. The chance of air attack is another definite possibility. The army command on the Pacific coast has said 'definitely that enemy planes appeared over San Francisco, and no one k knows when an actual bombing may be made somewhere. London and other Eurojiean cities were saved by the sujierb woik done by at-tac- volunteer fire fighters, trained and equipped to deal with incendiaries. Tho public also must coojierate to prevent fires which are not a direct result of war. We must keep our industries producing without cessation. A single great fire, in a key factory, could delay the completion of needed 'weapons for weeks and perhaps months. Any fire destroys materials 'and supplies which are vitally needed. And to rebuild after a fire takes labor which should be used for defense production.

In the German army, men are taken for service who cannot meet tho standard the U. S. army demands. The German army will draft for military duty any man who is physically and mentally able to perform any kind of service whatsoever. The U. S. army want3 and will accept only men with high physical and mental qualifications. The American medical fraternity must be given much credit for the physical and mental health of our youth. No people on earth has medical care of so high a standard. We have more doctors per thousand of our population than any other country. No man, rich or poor, who requires and wants medical attention, need suffer for the lack of it. The thousands of doctors who are giving their services without charge, to the selective service boards, are making certain that the Army gets only the cream of the crop. And the thousands of other doctors who have been called into the army are m&king certain that they stay physically and mentally well. The rumors to the effect that we are a physically weak people are completely untrue, and should be scotched.
