War news seems to be holding
the attention of every one and It
rather difficult to get any Inter
est now except In the very grave
war situation. The great progress
Hitler has made In the last few
weeks would seem to Indicate that
he will win over Britain as well
as France In the next month or
two. In case this is true It 1s very
likely that our country would
have to try and stem the tide
which would most assuredly
spread to our hemisphere. We
have hopes, however, that Ger
many li; gradually growing weak
er, because she has lost much
wealth and men in .her recent
struggle for supremacy and all
the -.ountrles she conquers must
have an army left with them in
order to hold them In subjection,
besides she must have a vast
army to keep up her aggression
with Britain. Britain Is tighten
ing her blockade all the time and
this blockade is far more effective
now than before Italy entered the
war. No doubt our country Is be
coming more deeply Involved all
the time because of our avowed
help to the allies. There Is a faint
possibility that with American
help now Britain may yet win,
but ^e might as well prepare for
the iworst if Britain looses. The
American people have always
been equal to any occasion that
might arise and she will not fail
now.
