Obedience decks the Christian When Hitler and Churchill Agree You don't expect, these days, agreement between Adolf Hitler and Winston Churchill on anything-. But they do appear to agree on one thing and it is a thing that has significance for the United States. It is this: the war is a long way from being over. Churchill said in a. recent speech that Britain is in for an "undoubtedly long and formidable war." Hitler said in his birthday message: "A hard battle year stands before us." - That last-is a significant utterance in a country' which from many official sources was promised final victory last fall. It means that Hitler knows what some Americans seem not to realize that victory in the Balkans is not victory in the Avar. Victory in the whole Mediterranean or the whole Near East is not victory in the war. The mighty fortress of Britain stands, battered and bruised, but unshaken. The control of thp seas is still British. Brit-ish. The world-wide Emnire is intact. Hitler mav well speak of a hard battle year. The war could conceivably last very much longer. It could last two more vears 10 more. That does not mean tKit the United States can hold back for a moment in the deliverv of munitions so ureentlv needed. Jugoslavia and Greece fell in about three weeks. A shipload of simplies starting from New York the verv day the Germans invaded would not have reached them before the whole tras-edv was over. The United Stages did not let anybody down. American aid is not ineffective. Anv help to Jugoslavia and Grepce was based on the supposition that a front cou'd be established and held. This n roved impossible; impossi-ble; time, thf.t one indispensable munition of war, was lacking. lack-ing. Hitler's own suggestion of "a hard htH vear" .makes it nretty clear that this will not be true of other battle- zones. Whatever war material is on the wav to Greece, for instance, will rrobablv wind un in Egvnt, not wasted. And American production is beginning to get under wav. Bv and large, it is coming just as fast as anv informed pooplc thought it could when. th. program .was launched less than a, year ago. Now is no time for faltering in the course Ave have chosen. It is better to be right and lose, than to be wrong and win. Best of all is to be right and win, too. The Evidence Is Plain When Sir Christopher Wren had finished St. Paul's Cathedral in London, they carved his memorial on a marble plaque and set it in the wall. "If you wish to see his monument," monu-ment," they wrote, "look about you." Now that plaque lies beneath the tumbled ruins of that grand house of worship. The workers who clear away the wreckage will find the plaque, but the wreckage itself is now a monument to another man whose tcjols are- not hammer and chisel, but bomb and bullet.

After all, it ia the same spirit Which led to the conquest of America. ; - ' i , . ! TERRITORIAL., BASES ! . c The island bases of the United aiai.es are now considered our best ' safeguard against invasion. But Army and Navy brasshats will get a scorching rebuke in a report soon to be made public rjy me House Appropriations sub committee that inspected terri torial bases. Written by Representative James G. Scrugham of Nevada, chairman of the group, the report wm vigorously recommend the immediate creation of an "inde pendent air ' force." This would be intended to correct two chief abuses: (1) The location of army and navy bases almost side by side nil f J L.rvn.i iv-- v-wr t. M. atq in flat, unprotected country, thus "inviting destruction by enemy bombs." (2) Failure to build hangars, repair shops and other facilities underground. Regarding the first criticism the Scrugham report will state "This policy of concentrating highly essential military or in dustrial structures in very limited areas cannot be too strongly con aemnea, and may constitute an error of gravest consequences This Is a3 true in our territorial as well as our continental de fenses. "The lesson of the destruction of the Tolish air force by the Germans at the beginning of the war seems to have gone entirely unheeded (by the aeronautic bu reau chiefs responsible). In flat country, protected air facilities facili-ties mav be impractical, I but where they are adjacent hills, it seems Inexcusable to deliberately build . . . bases invitingly located for bombing attacks, and so close together that an enemy plane can hit one if it misses the other. , "Everywhere the story is the same, from Hawaii to Puerto Ri co, from Alaska to the Virgin islands, Jamaica and Trinidad. Al so, no adequate plans have been formulated for water reserves, except ex-cept to contract for drilling a few wells, with grave uncertainties as to quality and quantity." Scrug"nam's conclusions will be that a "tragedy of the first mag nitude" may develop unless im mediate steps are take to rectify conditions at the territorial bases. His solution is the centralization of all military air forces under a single head with cabinet rank, : I BATHING RUM . : The lack of water at the bases was brought home forcibly to the committee when visiting the Virgin Vir-gin islands. - ' First request of the group was to be ushered to the nearest show er bath. "Sorry," apologized the welcoming officer, "but our showers show-ers aren't in operation. You see, there is an acute water shortage here." He pointed to several natives plodding by with five-gallon jugs of water balanced on their heads. "That's drinking water," he explained. ex-plained. They get it at a spring five miles from here. We catch our water for bathing in cisterns, but it hasn't rained here for so long that we've run out." "Well, what do you do about bathing?" 4 asked Scrugham. "We bathe in rum," was the cheerful reply. "We buy what we call 'bathing rum for 25 cents a gallon at the general store In town." NOTE Drinking water is a problem on many West Indian is lands, and is caught by huge con crete "catchments" which cover the hills and divert every drop of rain into cisterns. C.I.O. MEDIATIOX SUBS I The president has been under considerable public criticism for appointing C. I. O. leaders to the national defense mediation board But the public doesn't know the half of it. Real fact Is that C. I. O. mem bers rhil Murray and Thomas Kennedy have been sending in un authorized substitues to act for them on the board. Except for the first meeting, when they sat for their pictures, Murray and Kennedy have been conspicuous by their absence. Anticipating this, the president when he set up the board, designated desig-nated an alternate for each of the 11 members. The C. I. O. alternates alter-nates were Emil . Rieve, head of the textile workers, and Clinton Golden, regional director of the Steel Workers Organizing committee. com-mittee. If these -two always filled in for Murray and Kennedy, Ken-nedy, there would be no complaint, com-plaint, but more often than not; Murray designates pinch-hitters who, technically, have no right to sit on the board. Among them have been Allen Haywood, c. I. O. organization director; Anthony Smith. C. I. O. assistant counsel, and John Brophy, director of industrial in-dustrial union councils. What particularly gripes the board members is that Haywood -by Williams lA1 u. T. off, copw. mi by stavret. mc. was originally proposed by Murray Mur-ray as a substitute and Roosevelt rejected him. When the president asked for recommendations, Murray Mur-ray sent in his own name at the instigation of John L. Lewis. NOTE Inside word in the defense de-fense mediation board is that the next time Haywood, close henchman hench-man of Lewis, shows up his right to sit will be challenged.

And this opens the way for me!" She didn't acually phrase it, but sne meant that she could now really compete against Leana Sorml. The telegram, of course was not explicit. Nevertheless it was evidence enough of treachery, "Anyway, I didn't promise Bob to to help him!" She suddenly recalled that painful scene when he dictated Leana a note. "He merely asked me to help win her, X never said I would!" With this telegram in hand she felt absolved even of the remotest moral obligation. obli-gation. Indeed, she felt obligated to do exactly what she now had in mind. Her initial flash of regret over having opened a private personal message was completely gone. Quiet anger rose within her. Hur riedly the re-sealed the message its envelope had been too loosely glued and took it to Leana's desk. Leana was across the compound at the laboratory now. Carolyn went there, planning as she walked. She would have to think fast! The guards all knew her because she had hired and paid them. But there was the mat ter of door keys, and physical help, Ken Palmer wrould do anything she asked. The U-235, Bob had said, would be in four leaden boxes totaling some 150 pounds, perhaps more. "When will you load the boxes on the freight car?" she asked Bob, when he had a moment to spare. Leana Sormi was out of earshot. "Be ready tomorrow morning. Tonight, really. But too much activity ac-tivity again at night might excite suspicion. Best to move as if it were simple routine, don't you think?" She nodded. She saw the boxes and vent gingerly near to them, with Bob.

Tenth of 12 Articles ! Daily routines for the baby determine the differene between a happy, contented, beautiful child and a peevish, fretful one. Routine trains the child in good health habits which should remain with him. Routines begun in the hospital or maternity home should be carried car-ried over into the baby's home. Here is a sample routine- that most mothers should find adapt able: 1. Breast feeding regularly by the clock every three or four hours as determined by the doc tor.

Regular periods for sleep should be established after each feeding and strictly kept. 4. Give the bath at a regular time each, day. Remember that strict cleanliness is of great importance. im-portance. , 5. Play periods when the child should be left largely to himself in a play pen are necessary for normal development. 6. Good ventilation should be provided both day and night, but do not let a draft blow directly upon the child while sleeping or resting. 7. Simple toys should be given the child which fit his level of development. 8. Young children are very susceptible sus-ceptible to sudden changes in temperature. Therefore . t h e"y should have suitable clothing and regulation of temperature in the home. It is especially necessary to protect baby from the heat during the hot months. , SPRING DAMAGED SPRINGVILLE Springs in, the vicinity of Spring Creek canyon from which the city procures its culinary water supply,, today had been cleared of sediment and debris deb-ris washed from the mountain during dur-ing a terrific storm Sunday night. The spring had been only temporarily tempor-arily covered and workmen spent most of the day Monday on repair re-pair work and cleaning the reservoir. reser-voir. LOVE POWER that anything so drab in appear' ance could be of such transcendent value and importance. "One man could lift one box, couldn't he?" she inquired, in casual tone. "Oh sure. It's safe now, encased In the lead." He smiled tolerantly as if at a child, then showed her how easy it was by moving one of the containers a few feet and that was precisely what Carolyn wanted to know. COME time later a west-bound freight train was moving at average speed across a nearby state. It was exactly like hundreds hun-dreds of other such freight train.-?, except that in the caboose rode four armed guards, carefully picked from those who had stood duty near the Schoenfeld Labora tory. They did not look like guards. They were dressed like railroad brakemen. Dr. Hale had simbly explained to the railroad authorities that he was shipping some valuable chemicals chem-icals and had arranged for those four "caretakers" to go along. They would stay, in shifts, with the specially chartered freight car when it was shunted onto a siding at the remote village'of Blair. Ariz, Bob himself had thought to go along as guard but. as Carolvn pointed out, he could do nothing that trusted hired men couldn't do. and his presence on the train might arouse too much interest. Dr. Robert Hale, Ph. D., was nationally known. If he accom panied a freight shipment across the country, newspaper editors would be sure to see a story, and the hideout at Blair would be overrun with reporters and pho tographers. Then, too, Carolyn suggested, if the shipment went without him, Bob could wind up his business affairs at the laboratory, labora-tory, and fly west with Carolyn and her mother, in time to meet the traii. Leana Sormi was not present to discuss the matter when the train left. Bob told Carolyn that Leana had been unexpectedly called out of town. Carolyn said nothing, but her pulse quickened The train rolled with routine smoothness for several hours. The four men in its caboose had been instructed to sleep only in shifts of two even while moving. There is little to do in a freight aboose. Monotony settled hard and was abruptly broken when the train slowed down in a forest on ts first night out. The conductor looked up first, j K u The list toys for young children are simple one which fit his level of development. LAKE VIEW MRS. SADIE SHAW Reporter Phone 018-R-S A very good program was presented pre-sented by Union school teachers at the Lake View ward chapel Sunday evening at sacrament meeting. Bishop August Johnson presided and Principal E. A. Beck had charge of the program and those who took part were Selina Miller, Meralda Hogge, Calvin Frandsen, Mariam Hill, E. A. Beck, Kirby Allen.

We ain't at no place, in fact!" "Trouble on the engine, I reckon," reck-on," a brakeman ventured. He was more right than he guessed. The long train stopped completely, and at once two masked men appeared in the caboose ca-boose door. "Just set tight!" one commanded, behind a stubby but fierce looking sub-machine gun. "With your hands high!" There was no alternative but to obey. The second intruder held a pistol. The car remained quier, but there came a hammering and a noise of voices outside. Presently they heard a truck drive up to the side of the first car ahead, then five minutes of vague scrapings, commands and curses from somewhere some-where outside. Say, what's going on?" One of the guards in the caboose had to speak. Courageously enough, ha wanted to fight. But he knew ba hadn't one chance in a million. TVEWS of the train robbery reached Carolyn Tyler at 1:4 o'clock next morning. The telephone tele-phone jangled her awake. Bob wa calling, "Carolyn!". He was literally liter-ally crazed with anxiety. "It hni happened again! Our train it wns held up! Robbed! The agent just telephoned me, too. They took our stuff! Held up our men! The wholo thing all of it all of it took it away, Carolyn! I I " He was so nervous as to become inarticulate. And for her part, Carolyn had a sudden chilling sensation. sen-sation. For long seconds she stood breathless, staring at the table light by her phone. But in her was no acute fear. She felt oddly enough a peculiar elation. "Bob!" she cried. "No! I No Bob! They didn't! I know what I'm talking about! Look, I'll come to you at once and " "But they did, Carolyn! Tha agent said " "No, no, I tell you! I don't care what the agent said. Get hold of yourself, Bob, and listen to me. It's all right. All right, I tell you. Your X " She remembered not to mention the secret, even in this stress. " Your shipment is safe, I" "They took the entire thing! All four of the boxes! Ail!" "No, I tell you. Bob! I listen, they may have stolen the boxes and everything from that freight car, Bob, but I tell you vour pre cious stuff wasn't there! I I took it out myself, Bob! Before the train left!"
