when danger of any kind
threatens.
These efforts hearten sincere
and worried Americans who
view the future with fear for-
— (this country's inherent rights
0 and values. They are in keep-
10 ing with the long service record
8 , of the Boy Scouts f*f America.
I Floods, storms and fires have
^ seen these khaki-clad youths in
j immediate action. New Eng
land and Florida still recover-
ing from the hurricanes and
floods of 1938 remember the
Boy Scout work with apprecia
tion. Older folks can remem
ber them at work in war times.
Durinfe World War, over $400,-
000,000 dollars worth of Liberty
Loan subscriptions were sold by
Boy Scouts. Forty-three mil
lion dollars worth of war Sav
ings Stamps were distributed by
these youngsters. Scouts under
direction of national leaders lo
cated over 5,200 carloads of
standing walnut trees for de
fense authorities. Herbert Hoo
ver, food administrator for the »
United States, complimented
Scouts upon their efficient cul
tivation of war gardens and
‘farms. These teen-age boys,
directly aiding the government,
delivered over thirty million
pieces of literature. American
democracy is in the iq;>otIight
today. While the youth of tL^
•United States is being trained
in a non-military fashion, not
only to meet the exigwiciee of a *
w.ar-time emergency, but alab
to meet the complexities of a
peace-time existence, worried
Americans may well relax tbair
£1 fears for the future.
