What happens in the war zones is
more important than expert guesses
as to what might happen.
When criminals, either men or na
tions, get together it is high time
for honest folks to band together.
It won't be long now before the
nation will find out whether the na
tional polls of public opinion are
right.
The Nazi scheme is to use military
force to take what others have in
order that Nazis may have more.
The writers of many books amaze
their readers who wonder why in the
h? the tomes are published.
Advertising in the Enterprise is
mysterious; it works but why and
how nobody seems to know.
The issues that interested men and
women before the war broke out in
Europe seem to be relatively unim
portant.
You can express your opinion on
any subject of public interest in a
letter to the editor and if you are
not too prolific your letter will be
published.
THIS TOO, IS IMPORTANT
In the midst of the news from the j
war scarred battle-fronts, let's not
forget the importance of careful driv
ing.
Highway accidents continue to take
an unnecessary toll of human life in
this country. Many of the accidents
are preventable and some of them
are the result of criminal careless
ness.
Speeding is undoubtedly a factor,
but there is absolutely no prospect
that speeding will be eliminated, re
gardless of any kind of safety cam
paign. This leaves us to the consid
eration of other measures and rigor
ous enforcement of traffic regula
tions, including parking rules, will
do much to cut down highway acci- j
dents.
MEXICO BARS JAP
FISHERMEN.
From Mexico City comes word that
an exclusive fishing consession has
been granted Mexican fishermen off
the west coast of Mexico.
This is interesting because Ameri
can naval officers have commented i
upon the activity of Japanese fish
ing fleets, which, in their opinion,
were often interested in more than
fishing. In fact, it has been report
ed ,without official confirmation,
that Japanese naval officers have
taken part in the fishing operations
off the coast of Lower California.
The Japanese had a concession un
til last October. At that time Mexi
co prohibited foreign ships from
working out of Mexican porta. Now
they will be barred altogether. The
Japanese have beerf suspected of mak
ing hydropraphic surveys of Mexican
with this country.
