DISSIPATING THE GLOOM
In times of universal depression we suppose it
were wel! that humor should occasionally break
through the encircling gloom, else people's men
tal, capacities would crack under the strain.
And we suppose, too, that it is entirely apropos
that those who are the instigators of the gloom
should furnish its antitode.
We refer to Hitler and some of his American
Fifth Columnist friends who have recently be
come the star humorists of the day.
Now the Fuehrer was never known to smile,
but generously he furnishes the world with a
laugh when he appeals to God to help him in his
crimes.
i
! Imagine this manst* 11 - of blood and terror and
death appealing to the God of civilized and
Christian humanity. This super-assassijn, this
prince of world gangsters, the prize murderer
of all the ages. Praying to the God he has denied
and dishonored, to become a partner in the en
slavement of free men and women, and his ac
complice in wrongs more atrocious than all the
sickening annals of history can recount.
The world is heartbroken, but excuse it while
it laughs at the insolence, the monumental im
pudence of this master scoundrel.
And then here in America among his friends
his rare humor is reflected, when Mr. G. L. K.
Smith of Detroit speaks.
Smith is one of the heads of the late lamented
"American First Comittee." Smith is trying to
start what he calls a nation wide campaign to
ftetftlon Congress to demand that "ex-hero Lind
bergh be made head of the American air forces
and Senators Wheeler and Nye be appointed
members of the cabinet."
Mark Twain in his prime was never half so
funny as Der Fuehrer and his American friends.

Ruling By Gen. Metts
Third and fo'.!.:h-yeai students
in acceptable mc'.'xbl scho iJs and
first-year interns may obtvn re
serve commissions in the Army or
Navy and then w'li l e
to complete their medical training,
including one year ,/i in j jiulup,
before being ordered to motive du
ty, Brig. General J. van b>: Metts,
State Director of Selective Service,
has advised all local boards in the
state.
Such medical students and in
terns may be deferred liy their
local boards in Class 11-A pending
receipt of their commissions, Gen
eral Metts said, but all who are
eligible for a commission and do
not apply may be considered for
classification in Class 1-A, if they
are not deferred for other reasons
and are found physically qualified
for general military service.
Third and fourth-year medical
students and interns who are re
jected after applying for commis
sions, and also first and second
year medical students and those
, registrants who have been accept
ed as students in a medical school,
may be deferred in Class 11-A aa
long as their school officials certi
fy that they give indication they
will become qualified medical
practitioners, General Metts said.
He emphasized, however, that no
group deferment is permissible un
der the law and that each caso
must be decided by a local board
on the facts convining t!i.» indi
vidual registrant involved.
Medical students and interns ac
cepted by the Army are given
commissions as second lieutenants
pending graduation when they be
come first lieuteants in the Army
Medical Reserve Corps. Those ac
cepted by the Navy are commis
sioned as ensifii.s until graduation
when they become lieutenants
(junior grade) in the Navy Medi
cal Reserve Corps.
