PER YEAR New Park Mine Comes To Froni i i Progressives, Up On Your Toes I I $1.50 I i C. N. UJND, EEKLY NEWS ANALYSIS BY ROGER SHAW Published Weekly by C. N.Lund March 3. 1879 Editorial f p f Progressives should study the Republican platform. This patform appears to us as giving very little encouragement to them. We have a high regard for the candidate, Wendell Wilkie. We like his courage.his resourcefulness, his ability and person fllity, but he and the platform are quite different. On the mat ter of relief it turns the problem over to the states and favors the cash dole, somewhat reduced. It favors the abolishment of WPA. On the matter of assistance to old age the platform may mean anything or nothing, but infers that it favors abolishing it. It is silent on public health, aid to the blind, help for dependent and crippled children, health insurance, etc. It continues the old system with a vengeance. Something better should be offered to millions of progressive people in the country. Perhaps the candidate can make up for the short comings of the platform. i i Peace Has Fled The Earth Senator Wheeler is out for a Peace Party," and orating ve'y loudly against the Republicans and against the party that KensukeHorinouchi, Japans ambassador to the V.

Well, they may cry peace, but there will be no peace. Let them understand that peace has fled the earth and will not return until after Armageddon. No man or group of men, no party, no nation or group of nations will be able to command or restore peace until that great battle has been fought. Put this down for reference.

In all the worlds history there has never been any philosophy that can stand a comparison with what is expressed in these few noble words. In the light of this what manner of men are they who deliberately make orphan children by the millions; who bomb childrens hospitals and orphanages; who send them frightened and crying to wander without parents, without means and food in the cruel and merciless world of today? How do the murderers of children compare with that great soul who said the words quoted above, and with that other great soul who said, "Theres nothing on earth half so holy as the innocent heart of a child? We plead with the barbarians of war to spare the children. What the war makers are doing to children they are doing to Christ himself, for, as he said, Inasmuch as ye do it unto one of the least of these, ye do it unto me. And the measure they are meting out to the children will be measured to them sooner or later. They cannot escape it. ..Thee pillions of children who are fleeing in fear, despairing and starving, will come up as witnesses in of the day judgment and the reckoning will be terrible. The world has yet to be won to Christianity the pure and undefiled Christianity of the Master.
