HITLER BEING OUT-THOUGHT, WILL BE
OUT-FOUGHT
r Hitler and his generals are deep thinkers, but
the Allied Hicrh Command is deeper. The Ger
mans will be out-thought and out-f ought.
* Hitler believes the Second Front w.jl start ra
France. He is wrong. It will start in .Norway (or
some other place than France).
The human mind can think only 4-strata deen.
Those who think deepest, win. Only great gen
iuses like Napoleon, Henry Ford, Pierpont Mor
gan, Douglas Mac Arthur, Stonewall Jackson,
can think 4-deep.
Hitler can't.
• The Allies can.
How do we arrive at the conclusion that the
Second Front will open in Norway?
Listen closely and we will steer you through
the fascinating but profound labyrinths of
reasoning that lead to the unmistakable goal of
truth.
The Allies have warned the civilian French to
get back from the coast.
If Hitler believed that the Allies meant what
they indicated in their warning, he would be
thinking only in the first stratum of his mind, in
; pther v;ords 1-deep. . *
t But he does not believe it, hence thinks 2-deep.
And if the Allies believed that Hitler believed
them, or if they really meant what they indicat
ed, they also would be thinking only 1-deep.
(Here let it be made clear that nincompoops and
nit-wits can think only 1-deep.
But Hitler is no nincompoop or nit-wit. He
•ktiows that the Allies know he is no fool. Thus he
..thinks 2-deep when they sound the warning to
the civilians of France.
Now the Allies know that Hitler knows they
know he is no fool. Thus the Allies think 2-deep
too.
But Hitler now goes the Allies one stratum
deeper. He is now thinking 3-deep. He knows the
Allies know he is not fooled by their warning to
the French. He knows now that they expect him
to believe that they believe he will not be fooled,
and that they think he will think they really
mean to strike at Norway. He is thus convinced
by his 3-deep thinking that they really mean to
'' strike THROUGH FRANCE.
The Allies through masterly deduction sense
that Hitler will reach the convictions above stat
* ed. Thus they meet his 3-deep reasoning by
thinking 3-deep themselves.
And now Hitler, not being able to delve deeper
• into the realms of intuition, prepares for the Sec
ond front IN FRANCE.
If the Allies could think no deeper than the
third stratum, they would strike through France,
and would possibly be defeated by Hitler's prep
arations induced by his 3-deep deductions.
But here Hitler is fooled, for the Allies are able
to think 4-DEEP. They decide to STRIKE
v THROUGH NORWAY.
The intricate thought process, my dear friends,
has evolved this way:
* Summary:
1. The Allies indicate they mean to strike
through France, by the warning issued to the
French' civilians.
2, Hitler in his 3-dnpension thought believe?

THE NEW BREW
T. 0. New of King introduced the Hon. Mr. De-'
lU'iiip, v.ho rpoke- at the court !.• use here Monday. !
Mr. Xo , "V- inr.i uductoi-y showed .-ca'i

•) a )]! ,'!' dc-urajiation of the Da pom i
porter, its editor and the edit rV son, and h\ im
plication contained a serious reflection >n the
integrity of the military recruiting' authorities.
I He said the editor of the Reporter was keeping
ihis son Vance out of the war to print the hellish
stuff put out in the Reporter's editorials, mean
ing especially the John Taylor "machine hoax"
recently exposed in this paper, which appeared
in a late issue of the Union Republican of Win
ston-Salem.
Mr. New in his frothing spasm, held up a copy
of the Reporter's editorial and asked if anyone
present had read it.
As the Winston Union Republican knows noth
ing about "the Stokes county machine" and had
to get its information out of town, it is wonder
ed if the speaker who introduced Delapp, and
the fellow who furnished the Union Republican
with its grotesque information, are not one and
the same guy.
Now it caused but little worry in the Reporter
office just what Tom New thinks about the Re
porter's editorials. The opinions of dejected re
jected politicians are seldom taken seriously
even by* their cwn friends.
But when he makes a slanderous attack on our
ipersonnel, that does cause concern.
I New's charges of course are entirely false, but
the opportunity appears here to give the true
jfacts:
Vance Pepper volunteered in the armed serv
ices in May, enlisting at the Winston-Salem re
cruiting office. He was immediately sent with 12
other boys to Fort Jackson, S. C., where after a
rigid examination by army physicians his health
was found to be too delicate for military service.
He was sent back to his home at Danbury with
an honorable discharge.
The Reporter is charitable enough to think
that perhaps New, when he charged Vance with
being" a slacker, his father with being an acces
sory and by implication that the military authori
ties who examined and discharged him, became
parties to the conspiracy to evade the military
laws—we say we are charitable enough to think
maybe New was only mistaken, and that like
many nincompoops he was only talking without
knowing what he was talking about, not having
they will do THAT VERY THING, reasoning:
They are trying to make him believe
that they are endeavoring to mislead
him to expect them at Norway, because
he knows they know he will think they
purpose to strike at the very place which
they are trying to lead him away from.
And so the Feuhrer is out-thought in his 3-deep
stratum, as the Allies take the 4-deep stratum.!
Hitler will get no farther than the third base'
and miss the home run. The Allies will strike at i
the point where Hitler does not expect them.
We trust you have followed us through this
mystic domain of Psyche, which is denied to ordi
nary mortals.
And you may sure that our figures are correct
and that the great Second Front will not begin
across the channel in France. That is, provided—
We are not wrong.

freedom for our people in the history of oar na

When boys are dying on the distant fronts by
sea and air and land, is not an appropriate time
to engage in the bitterness of partisan politics.
Folger very strongly reviewed the efforts for
defense made at Washington and other sections
of our country and on foreign strands, but at no
time did he forget.
His mind was acute to sense, and his heart was
big to feel, the necessity of all the people stand
ing together in a solid front when the danger to
America is so imminent.
Folger who is generally equal to all occasions,
was equal to this occasion.
JUDGE GWYN
Allen H. Gwyn, a Rockingham boy, is on the
bench at Stokes court this week.
I Judge Gwyn has not occupied his high position
jlong, but he already numbered among tho
most accomplished jurists of the State, having
; distinguished himself by able decisions in th-:
courts of North Carolina.
Of en attractive and pleasing personality, he
couples a firm sense oi duty and justice with that
■nercy which sometimes fails as the gentle
jshewer.
| Ore of Judge Gwyn's rare faculties is a tine un
derstanding and consideration of your view
point, which is an adornment of the ablest legal
jminds, and then he is commonsense and country
plain, which endears him to the people.
FRANK ROSS *
Some great writer said an honest man is the
noblest work of God.
When Frank Ross died Stokes county lost not
only one of its honestest men, but a citizen who
was outstanding in the many other qualities that
make up a splendid upright christian gentleman.
He was successful in his business. He was a
useful citizen who will be keenly missed in his
section and among a large circle of friends
with whom he had dealings.
The attendance at his funeral last Sunday at

But if New knew that his damaging and slan

chance offered to give vent to his spleen against

cast an unprovoked stain on people who have al -
ways been his friends, then the only course left
open to him is tp accept the odium that attaches
