DEFENSE ITEM
Here is an iteni that may mssa
about defense:
One day recently a plana factory
in Texas delivered fifty all-metal
training planes to the government
One year before the field upon
which the plant stands was growing
cotton. Structural steel was unload
ed late in November, 1940, and the
first plane was assembled April 7th.
ItoTare hundreds of similar
plants in the United States busy to
day tuning out weapons for the de
fense of democracy. We hear of only
a few hut when the full story of our
rearmament program becomes known,
Americans will be proud of their
country.

"WITHOUT UBEBTY, THE
BRAIN IS A DUNGEON AND
THE SOUL A CONVICT/*
(By Homer Spell, Durham
High School)
Most Americans have a fear. For
that matter, anywhere on the earth
one will be apt to find some people
who fear one thing or another. To
ma I say don't lose faith in any fel
| low American if he doubts the
1 strength of America and thinks that
Hitler is invincible.
With the biggest factories in the
world, the greatest amount of raw.
over ninety percent of all
the world's gold supply and a people
up of superior strength of mind
and body, we are a nation that Hitler
cant laugh off and will have trouble
fighting off.
The People of the European na
tions lacked those few fundamentals
that we possess. In Germany, when
their labor leaders were shut up,
when the Warner Constitution was
torn up, the people shuddered and
backed away, frightened.
When their liberties were taken
away, their brains went dull, quit
action ahwrak to naught. When
their churches were burned and the
preachers hanged or persecuted, they
didnt fight. They are sorry now.
We Americans are different. We
have what it takes to combat the
eviL We have our liberty; our brains
are alive, clear, our souls are warm
to the needy, but cold to the aggres
sor. It's something to preserve and
something the rest of the world
craves with eager, outstretched arms:
freedom, independence and strength.
Americans! Believe in America;
fight for her; live for her, and if
needed, die for her, so that in the
future as in the past, Old Glory will
shine in the wake of the world.
Whatever comes never lose faith
in America and we'll win this fight.
