I mean the way the human race has worked out a whole set of alibis for its misdeeds and shortcomings. Some of them's harmless alibis like the office boy's grandmother who always passes away just before the big baseball game. Here's some others. "My alarm clock didn't go off." "I left my money in my other suit" "I was settin' up with a sick friend." And then beers. Now the one about the two that one is downright exasperatin'. Because there's not a shred of truth in it. Every once in a while I read in the papers about some ornery cuss, who never did know the meanin' of moderation, gettin' himself into trouble and then protestin' that all he had to drink was "a couple of beers." He knows it isn't true. He's just sayin' that because he knows that No. 45 of a Series Copyright; A WEEK OF THE WAR . . couple of beers" sounds moderand it is. ate and sensible-lik- e rememever I don't Personally, ber seein' a couple of glasses of good beer, enjoyed among friends, hurt any normal, sensible person. If you won't get in trouble without beer, you aren't going to get in trouble with it Matter of fact, it's been my observation right along that a friendly glass of beer in pleasant sociability leads to just the opposite of trouble. It goes along, seems to me, with good companionship, and moderation, and tolerance for the other fellow. tit Thursday, Sept. 10, 1942 OFFICIAL ! !

Flvine Fortresses bombers were reported as missing i louowing tne great oepiemuer est. American aerial attack of the war on Fance. Three squadrons o fthe big bombers attacked the airframe factory at Meaulte, near Albert, for the sec ond time, while a fourth Squadron bombed the St. Omer Airfield. In the raids the fortresses destroyed five enemy fighters and probably destroyed 13 more, and damaged another 25. The bombers were escorted by 400 allied fighters, three oi wnicn were snot down, Gen. MacArthur'l Australian Headquarters reported September 7 that heavy allied bombing planes attacked a japanest cargo ship Southeast of New Guinea which was believed to have been attempt ing to supply tne trapped enemy forces at Mime bay area. u. s. While there is no question in our minds that we are going to win there is tremendous difference of opinion among the military and naval leaders of how it is to be won. Probably no authority in recent months has created such a furor as r, has Major Alexander P. de Seversky in his "Victory 'Through Air Power." de issue of Cosmopolitan Magazine, Major In the September Seversky Aviation again presents his views and charges flatly that "Land-Base- d 'Will Win the War." Pointing out that Congress has just approved ths building of new 'aircraft carriers, Major de Seversky says, "The aircraft carrier happens to be the most vulnerable vessel afloat. It is 'loomed as soon as it ventures d aviation." 'within the striking radius of Continuing, the famous aviator says, "In this war bitter experience has taught us the importance of dispersing airplanes and facilities. We ,no longer huddle planes and repair shops and supplies in one spot tor the convenience of enemy sky raiders. Instead, we scatter them over large area. But the carrier defies this principle of dispersement. On the Icontrary, it packs a maximum of aircraft and other equipment in minimum of space. As a result, it is the answer to a bombardier's dream I of a concentrated target. "If any doubt of the futility of carriers in offensive operations remained, it should have been wiped out by the events of Coral Sea and Midway. Those engagements were played up as "sea battles" in the official communiques, but they were nothing of the sort. The naval forces never even came into contact. Those were sea battles only in the sense jthat aviation fought over the sea and that navies provided the targets. "Practically all the aircraft carriers mixed up in the operations iwere sunk or crippled. We lost the Lexington and the Japs lost at least ifour, perhaps five, of their carriers. The tragic helplessness of this sort )of vessel exposed to assault horizontally, above and below was exhibited as if in a laboratory experiment. t "The fact is that the epoch of naval offensives is ended. War has 'resolved into a struggle for mastery of the skies. Air power has taken the lead. Surface forces are either reduced to auxiliaries or entirely immobilized until the issue of who controls the air is decided. Until we take this fact to heart, we shall blunder from disaster to disaster. We due to must recognize that there has been a revolution in None of our traditional strategy applies, 'the advent of the because it was a strategy, whereas air power has yanked warfare into the third dimension. war we will win this "We can and provided we face the fact that this is primarily an aerial war and proceed to develop the atrategy and the aircraft to win it.

TREASURY WAR BOND QUOTAS FOR SEPTEMBER President Roosevelt asked Congress tot enact by October 1 legislation nnder which he would be "specifically authorized to stabilize the cost of living, including the price of all farm commodities." In a special message to the legislators, the President said, "Inaction on your part by that date will leave me with an inescapable responsibility to the people of this country to see to It that the war effort is no longer imperiled by threat of economic chaos. In the event that the Congress should fail to act, and act Inadequately, I shall accept the responsibility, and I will act." (Mr. Roosevelt said the purposes of the legislation "should be to hold farm prices at parity, or at levels of a recent date, whichever is higher." He said "At the same time that farm prices are stabilizd, wages can and will be stabilized, also. This I will do." The President recalled that two points of his original seven-poiprogram required leg-- ! ram, and a law permitting the fixing of price ceilings on farm products at parity prices." He said delay in enacting this legislation "has now reached the point of danger to our whole economy. . . We cannot hold the actual cost of food and cltohlng down to approxim me present level beyond Oct ately ober 1. But no one can eive anv assurances that the cost of living can be held down after that date.." He renewed his request of last April for an individual net income limitation of $25,000.
