Text of Proclamation Washington. May 27. ? Follow ing is the text of a Presidential proclamation of an unlimited na tional emergency: Whereas, on September 8. 1S39. because of the outbreak of war in Europe, a proclamation was issu ed declaring a limited natiom l emergency and directing measures "for the purpose of strengthening - our -national defense wlfrhin the limits of peacetime authoriza tions." Whereas, a succession of events makes plain that the objectives of the Axis belligerents in such w?r are pot confined to those avowed at Its commencement-, but include overthrow throughout the world of existing democratic ord er, and a world-wide domination of people* and economies through the destruction of all resistance on land and sea and in the air and Whereas, indifference on the part Df the Xnited Stales to tin increasing menace would be peril ous. nn4 common prudence re quites - that~-foT ? ihe security of thin nation a ml of this hemisphe: i we should pass from peacetime authorisations of military strength to such a basis as will enable u - to cope instantly and decisively with any attempt at hostile en ? fiTcloiin in of ihis hamlnphwre. uc. the establishment of any base for aggression against it. as well as to repeal the t-hreat of predatory incursion by foreign agents into our territory and society. Now, therefore. I. Franklin t>. Roosevelt. President of the Unit ed States of America, do proclaim that an unlimited nat-ional emer gency confronts this , country, which requires that its military, naval, air and civilian defense be put on the basis of readiness to repel any and all acts or threats of aggression directed toward any; part of the Western Hemisphere. , I call on all loyal citizens en-i gaged in production for defense to give precedence to the needs of the nation to the end that a system of government t+iat mak private enterprise possible mar survive. _ J I cull upon our loyal workmenj as well as employers to merge their lesser differences in the larg er effort to insure the survival of the only kind of government which recognizes the rights of labor or of capital. I c all upon loyal stale and local Tfeaifers' affd' ofTTcratf w roopei'are with the civilian defense agencies of the I nited States to assure our. internal security against foreign directed subversion and to' put every community in order for maximuui prodrirrlve effort and minimum of waste and unneces sary frictions. l"Ort1 upon all loyal Strizens to place the nation's needs first in mind all in action to the end that ?e may mobilize aud have ready fot instant defensive use all of the physical powers, all of the normal strength and all of the material resources of this nation. In witness whereof I have here iuto set my hand and caused the seal o t the United Stales ' of America to be affixed.

FULGHTJM WRITES ?P NAVY FYERS COURAGE We are publishing below a story received from Dr. James E. Fulghum. local physician, station ed with the Med. Corps of the U. S. Navy, at New Orleans, La., which will be of interest to his many friends in Franklin County We also received clippings of photographs from (wo New Or leans dailies, which we. would have liked to passed on with this article but due to the fact that we did not have the cuts or mats wc could use them: The youth of America Is today taking to wings In your defense, and they are as One group of young American men as you wttt ever see. These college trained and hand picked men are respond ing to the call of their country. Tiere you see no slackest for bhese lads are ready, anxious and will ing to do what they can in your behalf. Their patriotism is true and these boys are going places. I help to select pilots and am attached to the Aviation Cadet Se lection Board of the United States Navy. This board is composed of aviators and Flight surgeons whose duly it is to interview ap plicants. conduct physical exami nations. and determine that class of individuals who are physically qualified and temperamentally adapted to make good flyers. We give a rigid physical examination and all those accepted are further examined psychologically for any hidden phobias or complexes which might interfere with his i adaptability to the air. The phy sically qualified are very nearly ' perfect and with no defects ofj importance. Great siress is giv en to the eye examination and all of those tests are accurate and systematically given. Here we see human interest at its peak Let me tell you about Oeorge O'.Nlary who literally at his way into t-he Air Corps. Sine August 1940 George has been trying to enroll as an Aviation Cadet George is L'6 years old., raised in~Arkansas on a farm, has finished college and desires to fly with me Navy. George was ex amined at Dallas. Texas, and found physically fit He was sent home to await his class During that time George had to work hard on the farm and when he was eaHed- Jtp for enlistment ha: was found to hare lost 6 pounds >>f weight, so the medical officer turned him down. George went back to the farm ? hitch-hiked ? sat at his motfier's ample table and ate When be figured he had eaten enough for the additional weight he applied again, this time t u the recruiting station near, hut) at Littfe Rock. Ark. HW was stilll underweight but undauiiled. A week later he tried at El Dorado. another recruiting station ? the same story George tame to see us in March still shy of t<ie nec essary Height. He wanted to 'know ways to gain. FOr another month he ate lots "f eggs and drank whole milk " trout the Ta r m with ToTi or refli lar sleep. Then one day. in he comes still riding the hitch-hike express and gets himself checked again. To his joy and t>be boar#'-* delight he was found to have foul' pounds over the minimum weight and otherwise acceptable, for with a determination such, as that he. cannot fall. George will come through. Not all stories have a happy ending. Listen to the case of John Stewart. All of his life John has been vitally interested in Aeronautics. As a child he built feliders and flew kites. As a youth he constructed-- model planes with gas engines. His every, thought and desire had been to fly wit-h the Navy. This inclination he had followed up in college by studying Aeronautical Engineering and had graduated with honors. Now after many mflnlhl of toil and sacrifice in college getting the educational requirements he comet up for consideration of his case. He is found to be all right) except upon examination of bis eyes he falls short of the require ments and must be turned down. No Navy wings for John The disappointment is great ? all his dreams smashed. All of these lads are worthy of your highest respect and you should Re proud to have t<hem in the air in your defense. They are a courageous and brave group of young Americans ? these boys with Navy wings. My thanks to the many people who have been so thoughtful to write me from time to time. I can assure you that it- was a pleasure to hcarfroavyoji. JAMES E. FULGHUM. Lt. M. C. U. S. N. R., 910 Canal Building. New Orleans. La. o ST.
