Abraham Lincoln. "No book can make us win the peace." says C. J. Hambro In the pre face to How To Win The Peace.' But he goes on to say that unless we realize that the peace-effort is as es sential as the war-effort every sacri fice of blood, sweat, and tears will have been in vain. On next Tuesday. December 7. 1943 we will have been at war two years six months longer than in the first World War. We here at home cannot do a great deal to further the military vic tory. But as was proved In 1918. mil itary victory alone will not give us peace. A world where we can hope to live in peace and security will be built by the people who understand what we are fighting against and what we are fighting for. Three little books that have become "must" reading are waiver Llppman s "U. S.

COTTON AND RAYON BATTLE FOR TIRES Southern Senators Fight To Hold Place For Fiber In Manufacturing A battle between cotton and rayon to capture the profitable tire cord market loomed today with the an nouncement by the War Production board that an interchange of tech nical information between five large producers of rayon yarn would accel erate the 240,000.000 high tenacity rayon program for production of syn thetic tires. A group of southern senators, in cluding Senators Burnet R. Maybank and "Cotton Ed" Smith of South Car olina, advocating the use of cotton for tire cord, participated in exten sive hearings before the Senate agri cultural committee and delved into the high-tenacity rayon program advocat ed by the War Production board. They were not successful, however. In changing the course set by the WPB's tire division. Before the war, cotton had a near- monopoly. Now it reels under the government's decision to use huge quantities of the synthetic product for. 'service casings.

IF TURRET ENTERS THE WAR There Is much speculation about the nrobability of Turkey giving active assistance to the United Nations. Al ready, according to an Associated Press dispatch, the Turks are giving secret assistance to the Allied armed forces. With the advance of the Russian Army, which threatens the entire Balkan Balkan region, the entrance of Turkey Into the war, which would afford the Allies bases for attacks in the Balkans, would be of vast impor tance. Nevertheless, it would be fool ish to conclude that the action of Turkey might precipitate peace. Certainly, there is little Justification, so far as we can see, In extravagant assertions that Turkey's belligerency would lie more Important than the Soviet Attack, the bombing of the Reich or the invasion of Italy."
