In their subtl style they have succeeded in trapping a good many Americans into thinking the way they want them 10 in spite of the fact that these Americans do not believe themselves to be sympathetic to the Nazis in any way That is why Nazi propaganda is dangerous. The Gegman agents know well enough that it would be impossible to convince any great number of Ameri- cans outright that the form of government known a: Hitlerism is better than theirs. Far from it. Their smpt, rather, is to divide and weaken us—hoth wnong ourselves and the Allied Nations The whole Nazi propaganda machine is intended to stir up quarrels and hatreds and doubts which would keep us from devoting our fullest energies toward the war effort We must never let this hap- pen One of the first things the Nazi propagandists ttempt to do is to cre; suspicion in our minds against our Allies, England and Russia. At the pe time the propagandists seek to foster contempt against the United States in England and Russia. They don't mind telling a story six different ways in the same day if it will further their ends In the United States they will preach that we are being run by England, that England will fight to the last American, that we are foolish to support Russia and save communism which will be the dominant | world order if the Nazis lose At the same time they tell England that Presi- dent Roosevelt is conspiring with the Jews to take over the British Empire, and that American troops | are in Australia and India for this purpose, that these | troops will never leave if they carry out a winning action. They say that elsewhere, the British have | allowed American troops to take up posts where they will remain permanently after the war is over.

In the next few months the num- ber of men with dépendents drafted will increase sharply. By the end of the year, when the army is to reach a strength of 3,600,000 men, most boards will e dipping heavily into the 3-A pool. This development ppoints to the urgency of giv- ing immediate consideration to a bill sponsored by the War Department providing subsistence allowances for dependents of men in service. This bill has been intrcduced only recently, Committee hearings have not been started yet Under the terms of the measure, $20 a month will | be deducted from the pay of an enlisted man desiring to provide an allowance for dependents. The govern- ment will contribute also, on a sliding scale beginning $20 a month, the total amount to be determined the number of dependents. If enacted, the measure will not go into effect for four months. The reason for the delay, presumably is the time required to set up the complex machiner necessary at system. Because it will take so long to get this allowance system functioning, and because the number of men with dependents being taken by the services is bound ance to increase sharply, it is essential that Congress get | to work on the measure at once. o At best, it wjll take several weeks to put the bill through committee and get some action on it in both ‘Then there will be the long lapse before de- pendents of the men in service begin to get benefit: The reasons for instituting some kind of allow- ince system are obvious and compelling. The need for quick action in setting up the system should be ‘qually obvious Conscripting Metals (Philadelphia Record) The Federal Government has started seizing pri- vate stocks of precious war metals—in a big way. Recently a United States marshal served the War Production Board’s requisition order on an Easto (Pa.) concern for 1000 pounds of high-grade alumin- im ingots. : Similar orders were issued for confiscation of 78,000 pounds of sheet copper held by @ New York establishment Tn both , the owner will be paid the Peders lixed price—for which both concerns had refused to ell But this is only a glance at the picture. reveals that so far it has been able to “smoke out” more than a half-million pounds of best aluminum srading” serap aluminum. doubt they ar United States industrialists who, by conniving at ¢ lailed production to keep pri up, sent their coun- try walking right into Hitler's trap.

Here's to drastic to seize vital metals. If armed authority is necessary—then armed authority will have to be used, if we intend to win the war. means An army officer, speaking before the American Dietetic Association in St. Louis, opined that the army training would change the eating habits of the soldiers and that they would not be satisfied with their customary fare when they got back home. ‘There is no question that our army is the best fed in the world, and a real effort if being made to give them a balanced diet. However, let the minds of mothers be at ease. The best cooks in the army can never make a boy lose his taste and enthusiasm for home fried chicken, cakes, pies and other delica- cies.
