For the simple things I daily enjoy; Food, shelter, understanding friends; The miracle at nature I am prone to ignore. But, Lord, I am conscious this year, Of the many blessings, Which with each passing moment of the day, Seem to me more dear. G. & C. ANOTHER "NEW" WEAPON The British have a new sea wea pon, according to an Associated Press Dispatch, recently received from Lon don, which adds that "most higher ups" deny knowing about it. A foreign report asserted that the British are filling depth charges with as explosive forty-seven times more powerful than TNT. This also has not been confirmed by the British. We are a bit wary of secret wea pons fit which there was much talk in the World War of 1914-1918. None of them ever came to light on the battle field. The same result will be observed, most likely, in re spect to the presently reported new weapon. NO PIKER The Honorable Joseph Stalin is no piker! He says that Russian losses ol 360,000 killed and 1,268,000 wounded and missing ~ do not compare witl the German losses, 4,500,000 men, dead, wounded and captured since June 22. The Soviet leader is probably talk ing for the benefit of his own people, just as Hitler exaggerates for home consumption, and for the same rea sons. Military experts are almost unani mous is the belief that Russian losses have been heavier than those of Ger many but one thing can be said oi Stalin, he promises Adolf a fight to the finish, with some evidence ol confidence that it will be Germany's finish. IN PAYMENT FOR LEND LEASE The average American today be lieves that the billions of dollars that we are spending for Lend-Lease aid is being passed out without any strings attached. But if this is the case, why have members of the Brit ish House of Commons called United States defense officials "hard bar gainers?" - It is true that defense officials are not making the mistake of the last war; that is, asking thoee nations is debt to us to repay us in gold. Thai was an impossible request in the lad war, and it mould be even more ab sored now. Our leaders, however, are compell ing those receiving Lend Lease aid to pay as mueh as they possibly can. For example, fire sixths of British holdings in thu country have been sold to pay for war orders. And the bulk of the re mainder is pledged aa security for an HFC loan. * This is not the only way that Lend Lease countries are paying us hack. In fact, the United States is receiv ing air and naval bases, access to raw materials, and trade concessions! that will greatly strengthen her po sition . and prestige in the postwar period. The Lend-Lease Act authorizes the President of the Uaited States to ar range for the repayment of Lend Lease funds in any direct or indirect way that he thinks is satisfactory. ? Thus, what this country receives in return for the Lend-Lease billions depends on our President's bargain ing power. , President Roosevelt has billions of dollars with which to buy concessions i to gain power and prestige for this t country in the postwar era. And power and prestige are two essential qualities that the United States must have if she is to be a potent factor in dictating and consolidating a victori ous peace.. . ? ? "aan ttwt> wdrrnatir ruuu run rAr/ui^viu Floyd Spikes Rumor About Food-Grabbling Currently making its rounds in | certain communities is a story that "the Government is going to take a ' part of all the foods people have 1 canned or stored for winter use." i E. Y. Floyd, State AAA executive , assistant, has labeled this rumor as i "preposterous," saying that evident ly "some people are attempting to ? misconstrue the aims of the farm , defense program." > In one Virginia county, it was re - ported that an individual has actual ly appeared at farm homes with a ? truck and represested himself as & i collector of food for the Government, ? even taking food from some unsu ' specting farm families. i "It would appear," Floyd said, "that a few individuals are trying to t take advantage of the farm defense program for their own gain by mis representing the facts to people who have not been informed. "Actually," he continued, "one basic objective of the program is to . encourage people to produce and pre ; serve food for home use as well as I certain commodities for countries re r sisting aggression." , The AAA executive emphasized: . "No one is authorized to collect food, [ and anyone attempting to do so . should be reported to local law en forcement authorities at once." >. North Carolina'farm families have ; given their wholehearted support to L the Government's request for more ; food in 1942 and are now making l plans to produce the extra food prod . nets needed in the food-for-freedom campaign, Floyd said. x Lindbergh wonders whether there ' will be any elections in the United ?
