Show I'Sh Wrote the Peace: A cooling-ofC period would be taboo. ta-boo. After more than a decade of Nazi and Jap infamy, their guilt shouts. Why sit back and allow their mouthpieces, both here and abroad, to stifle justice by baiting our sympathies? Sub-humans must be crushed like cockroaches. There's nothing more dangerous than a killer kill-er who beats the rap. It gives him the arrogance to search for another throat to slit. Frozen-faced Junkers and Jap military hop-heads must be deprived of their tools. Bullets are their bread. They dedicate their lives to war. The loss of one tussle is only the signal for blue-printing another session of blood and steel. But you can't invade a neighbor with paper battle plans alone. They should be stripped of all weapons including putty-blowers. Bumdist Fritz Kuhn and his cronies now in the hoosegow should be shipped back to their Fatherland on the first cattle boat. Allowing them to go free in America is unthinkable. un-thinkable. And why should taxpayers taxpay-ers foot the bill for their food and board while they're in our clinks? They wanted to share the loot of a Nazi victory. It is only right that they should be forced to share the burden of a Nazi defeat. The war against intolerance must march on. Racial hatred was a disease dis-ease before Naziism popped out of the wall, and it will remain after Naziism is under a tombstone. Bigotry can only breed civil wars that result In international unrest. The war cannot be considered won until we attain the tolerance we have fought for. Our military forces should never again be allowed to rust. Our muscles mus-cles must be in fighting trim at all times. The Air Age has shrunk the globe. Tomorrow's Pearl Harbor could be New York, Chicago, L. A. or a town in Montana. T,he cost of security will be high, but the cost of insecurity is higher not only In dollars but in something more priceless: price-less: The lives of American youth. Charming Pollack (in Your Life mag) climbs out on a precarious limb. He insists that wives hate their husbands as much as they love them. I don't believe it . . . Newscaster Quincy Howe defends the CBS censorship in Atlantic Monthly. He states: "In so far as commentators do slant their views, those who slant them away from the New Deal have found favor with sponsors and the public alike" . . . Apparently Mr. Howe has not studied or even read the current radio ra-dio ratings (Crossley and Hooper) which reveal only one news commentator-reporter among the first 20 radio programs . . . That radio reporter's re-porter's current rating (Hooper) is 22.2 . . . His New Deal support is famous . . . The runner-up is sponsored spon-sored by a Republican oil magnate. His rating is 14.2 ... the other radiorators are rated: (12.0) . . . (10.6) . . . (8.3) . . . (7.2) . . . (6.8) . . . (5.8) . . . (4.5) . . . (3.5) . . . (3.1) . . . (3.2) . . . Mr. Kaltenborn's substitutes are rated 17.1 . . . (Finger-snap). Navy men returned from the sea tell this column that a ship is still silhouetted against the lighted Florida Flor-ida skylines especially on moonless nights. If anyone tells you the sub menace is whipped in Southern waters wa-ters ask the survivors . . . When the war is over watch this be confirmed: con-firmed: That the French island of Martinique was (until the Navy took it over) the Nazis pet sub base . . . Someone at the State Dep't stopped the Navy twice from taking Martinique. As a result too many American seamen and officers are gone . . . The G-Men in two years of war probed more than 13,000 cases of reported sabotage in the U. S. One in ten was found to be actual sabotage, but even these were due to carelessness, spite or horseplay, horse-play, etc. None by direction of enemy en-emy agents, says G-Man Hoover, who adds: "That's no reason to relax, re-lax, as the sabotage menace is as great as before. The only effective weapon is vigilance." On the 20th Century Fox lot they were gabbing about Woodrow Wilson, Wil-son, whose saga is being filmed. When Wilson was ill and paralyzed the Senate sent Senator Fall to check if he was insane as rumored. As Fall was leaving the bedroom he paused at the door. "I want you to know," he said, "that the Senate is praying for you, Mr. President." Without batting an eye, Wilson queried: "Which way?" Probably a coincidence, but some railroad wrecks seem to happen when loads of soldiers are riding trains bound home on furlough . . . Couldn't some of those wrecks come from Nazi war prisoners who escape internment camps? Not all of them have been caught, have they? A good Nazi would do a job like that, wouldn't he? Our agents abroad do it for us ... If sabotage is proved, by the way and announced by constituted con-stituted police authorities, the insurance insur-ance companies must pay on the line no stalling or settlements. |
