BI'NDISTS EMPLOYED IN
DEFENSE PLANTS
Dies committee agents have se
cretly warned government authori
ties to be on guard against an out
break of sabotage In defense plants
on the West coast.
According to the Dies-men. big
gest U. S. danger spot is Los Ange
les, where Nazi and Communist fifth
columnists have been unusually ac
tive of late. The Los Angeles area
contains one of the largest concen
trations of defense work in the coun
try.
One reason for the D-men's fear
was their discovery of a secret mail
ing list of 2,500 names in a raid on
the Los Angeles headquarters of the
German-American Bund. Herman
Schwinn, West coast Bund fuehrer,
admitted, under questioning, that the
list consisted of Nazi sympathizers
who regularly attended Bund meet
ings.
A check-up of the names revealed
the startling fact that 800 of them
are employed in airplane plants,
shipyards, oil refineries, auto fac
tories and other key defense indus

SPANISH BRIBE
The career clique of fascist-mind
ed appcasers inside the state de
partment has dwindled in size and
strength since Europe's tragic his
tory proved the fallacy of their
course in Spain. However, they are
still strong enough to urge a loan (or
gift) of $100,000,000 from the Export
Import bank to General Franco, dic
tator of Spain.
Furthermore, it may be that the
career clique will get away with it.
They urge that the hundred mil
lions be advanced to Spain in order
to keep Franco from coming into the
war against England. They claim
that if Spain has enough food, the
country will remain neutral. And it
is the British, whose fumbling in
Spain was even more responsible
than ours for the present danger to
Gibraltar, who now want the United
States to bail them out with a hun
dred million dollars.
Confidential military reports from
Spain, however, indicate three
things: first, the Spanish people are
so fed up with three years of bloody
civil war that they won't fight in
any foreign war not of their choos
ing: second. Spain is so badly de
fended that her harbors would be
easy targets for the British fleet;
third, the Spanish people actually
are near revolt, which is the secret
reason why Franco wants the hun
dred million. Without food, the old
Loyalist government might come
back again.
In other words, it looks as if 'he
career clique inside the state de
partment is still trying to keep in
power the man they secretly backed
during the Spanish civil war.
CRACK IN THE SOUTH
The Solid South was cracked in
the recent election, but no* by a
Republican. It was the work of a
Nashville, Tenn., Democrat, in the
only hard-fought congressional bat
tle in the entire South.
Hero of the saga was J. Percy
Priest, crack newsman of the Nash
ville Tennessean, who, running as an
Independent, unseated Iwo - term
Rep. Joseph W. Byrns Jr., son of
the late speaker of the house of
representatives.
Priest defeated Byrns although
the district hadn't elected anyone
but a regular Democrat since the
Civil war, and although he commit
ted the faux pas of failing to regis
ter so he could vote.
Priest, however, had other strong
advantages on his side. For many
years he has been his paper's "good
will" reporter, attending barbecues,
fairs, graduations and civic gather
ings. Practically everybody in the
district knows "Perce" Priest per
sonally. Also, Byrns, first elected as
a New Dealer, had chalked up a
near perfect anti-Roosevelt record.
Priest also made much of the fact
that Byrns' speech against the draft
bill had won thunderous applause
from the Republicans. Nashville
generally is strong for national de
fense and FDR. So while Byrns
won renomination, he found a real
fight on his hands when Priest threw
his hat into the ring as an Independ
ent.
Byrns sent out a frantic SOS to
house colleagues and Rep. Sam
j Hobbs dashed up from Alabama to
stump for him. But it was no go.
Byrns was defeated in the only Dem
| ocratic upset in the entire South.
Note?Priest's constituency is
! known as the "Hermitage district,'5
i because it was the home of Presi
j dent Andrew Jackson, patron saint
of the Democratic party. The new
congressman is 40 years old and
unmarried.

for the kingdom of God.?Luke 9:ti2.
Weak-kneed. watered-out, and [
"sickly" religious philosophies and j
activities have no right to call them- |
selves Christian. Following Christ |
is not just a sweet sentimental im- i
pulse expressed in smooth words 1
and formal religious exercises. It
is a vital, virile, sacrificial faith
which leads the true follower of
Christ to be willing not only to die j
for Him, but also to live for Him I
in the face of opposition, hatred,
yes, "through peril, toil and pain."
Let us put away these insipid im
itations of Christianity which so !
often masquerade under its name I
and face our time with a call to '
discipleship which demands every
fine, noble, manly and womanly
quality. The lesson for today re
veals that following Jesus (and
please remember you are not ready
to live for Him until you have been
born again) calls for
I. Co-operation (vv. 49, 50).
The placing of the little child in
their midst (vv. 46-48", and Jesus'
words concerning true greatness re
vealed to John that he had been
wrong in condemning the one who
was working for Christ but who was
not of their party. The true disciple
recognizes that the man who truly
loves and serves Christ is to be ao
cepted in His name.
II. Humility (vv. 51-53).
Gross discourtesy, evidently in
spired by national hatred (the Jews
and Samaritans had no dealings
with each other), was shown toward
the Lord Himself. His reaction
gives us an example of humility, for
He said not a word against them.
The true follower of Jesus should
expect such treatment from a hos
tile, devil-inspired world and emu
late his master by showing love and
III. Patience (vv. 54-56).
The disciples wanted to show their
power and authority by bringing the
fires of destruction upon the enemies
of Christ. That spirit has persisted
in the church, the desire to call the
fires of heaven (and possibly of hell)
to destroy those who hinder or op
pose us. Such is not the spirit of
our God and His Christ, for He is
"long-suflering to us-ward, not will
ing that any should perish, but that
all should come to repentance."
IV. Sacrifice (vv. 57, 58).
The writer dislikes to use the
word "sacrifice" in connection with
our life and service for Christ, for
in reality we sacrifice nothing which
is not more than replaced (read
M?.tt. 19:29). But at the same time
it is true that God does call upon us
as Christians to hold nothing dearer
than our devotion to Him.
Following Christ is more than
singing glibly or carelessly, "I'll go
where you want me to go, dear
Lord." The one who starts out with
Him is to count the cost (Luke 14:
28-33\ He must expcct the same
treatment as Christ (II Tim. 3:12)
and be willing to take it gladly (John
15:20; I Pet. 2:21). We ought to
make this plain to professed believ
ers. Tell young people the truth
and you will see that they are ready
to respond to it. They are willing
to give themselves sacrifically for
causes of this earth?why not for
Christ?
V. Devotion (vv. 59-62).
It has been said that Christ Is
cither Lord of all or He is not Lord
at all. Even the demands which
love may present on behalf of our
aged father must not be permitted
to stand between the Lord and His
disciple.
Christianity is considerate and
couricous, and our Lord is not here
suggesting any neglect of the duties
or amenities of life. The point is
rather that the Lord must have first
place whatever else may call for
sccond thought.
The blight on the life and service
of most Christians is that almost
anything and everything else is al
lowed to take first place and the Lord
must be satisfied with sccond or
third place. Sometimes one won
i ders if He is given any real place
I at all in some lives.
No one who puts his hand to the
plough in God's Kingdom and then
wants to defer following through un.
til a more convenient season, or who
wants to go back to "bid farewell"
to someone who for the moment is
more important than the Lord, is fil

P) ETHOIT.?Hurry-up Yost is stiU
wearing the same old Will Rog
ers grin. The man, who came to
Ann Arbor as head coach with Willie
Heston 40 years ago, today as ath
letic director looks at Tom Harmon,
one of the greatest running backs
of all time.
Forty years ago Wolverine sup
porters, chanting "The Yellow and
the Blue," looked upon Willie Hes
ton as the nonpareil. Today the
sport-loving city of Detroit can't be
lieve that Heston was another Har
mon.
As long as both belong to Michigan
football history, Yost merely grins.
"What about an all-time Michi
gan backfield," he asks, "with Ben
ny Friedman at quarter, Heston and
Harmon at the halves and Johnny
Garrels at full? What other all-time
college backficld could ever equal
that bunch? Name one."
The closest we could think of in
cluded Thorpe, Calac, Guyon, and
Hudson ?r Mt. Pleasant at Carlisle?
or Ciipp, Savoldi, Eichenlaub and
Carideo or Dorais of Notre Dame,
not overlooking Marty Brill.
The Michigan collection still
leads.
The Harmon Case
When you get right down to the
facts in the case. Tommy Harmon of
Michigan has already proved his
place in the football roundup.
In the 21 or more games of his
career he has been a star at almost
every start. They have checked
him and there as Bob Zuppke did a
year ago. But don't forget that even
TOM HARMON
the brilliant Red Grange knew
games where he lailed to pick up
two first, downs. I saw one against
Nebraska.
Football has known too many
great backs to offer you any com
plete list?it had known some even
before the days of Snake Ames at
Princeton, one of the best, around
1889.
Heston, Eckersall, Thorpe, Coy,
Mahan, Tryon, Gipp, Nevers,
Grange, Nagurski, Joesting, Stev
ens, Dutch Clarke, Whizzer White
and a long list of others have led the
parade at one time or another. Don't
believe for a second that all had
nothing but big days. They have
all known dark days on one or more
occasions.
Grange Stopped
I still recall the day when I trav
eled with "Our Town" Frank Cra
ven, the football loving actor, to Ur
bana to see Red Grange run against
Nebraska which had a tackle by the
name of Weir?a 220-pound hurdler.
That day we failed to see the fa
mous Redhead cross the scrimmage
line.
Frank Reagan made over 300
yards against Princeton?but only
six yards at ball carrying against
Michigan.
Fritz Pollard at Brown was a star
back, but Colgate stopped him cold
er than two dead mackerel.
No one can keep running forever.
There were few backs the equals
of Eddie Mahan, the Harvard Scythe
but Cornell arrested his march at
the line of scrimmage one afternoon.
There is a big argument now un
der way from Berkeley to Cam
bridge, meaning the Pacific and the
Atlantic, as to where Harmon be
longs in the galaxy of stars. Many
of them will tell you Evashevski
made him. Harmon will say so.
Self-Made Back
Evashevski is one of the best
blocking backs of this generation.
A grand football player. But he
didn't make Tommy Harmon.
Harmon made Harmon. When
Evashevski went out in the Penn
game and his substitute entered,
Harmon pickcd up even more
ground.
Great backs make themselves?
not theii i lockers, who can certainly
help. But tbe main job is still up
to the outstanding ball carrier, given
any sort of a chance to get in mo
tion.
