FRIDAY, JULY 4, 1941 BIBLE THOUGHT FOB WEEK REST IN GOD S LOVE: It is vain for you to rise up early, to sit up late, to eat the bread of sorrows: for so He giveth His beloved sleep. Psalms 127:2. t.i.-:fir" if H6 BACKSEAT , DM VMS WJEDHQ National Courage On July Fourth The people of the United States will this week celebrate the anniver sary of their independence as a na tion and rededioate themselves to the principles enuncinated in the famous Declaration which notified the world that a new nation had been born. In the opinion of many of the most intelligent citizens of the Republic, the United States faces dangers without equal in the long history ot this country. The peril does not arise solely from the possibility of defeat in war, but rather in the re cognition that this catastrophe wouia mean the complete loss of individual liberty. The development of totalitarianism and the rise of dictators in many countries has been marked by the end of freedom for the human be ings of their countries. The threat of Hitler's present warfare becomes more serious when we understand that victory for the Nazis may mean the permanent end of freedom as we understand it. Nations in the past have lost wars and retained their recuperative pow ers, gradually regaining the strength and eventually rising to world power. The citizens of these conquered states were not robbed of their per sonal freedom. This hope hardly re mains with the prostrate victims of Hitler's Army and it is a question whether they can regain lost prestige and vanished freedoms without the successful warfare of the nations now fighting Hitler. The people of the United States are far away from the actual fight ing in Europe and Asia, but their destiny is undoubtedly at stake. Cer tainly, this is no time for a divided America. It is time for minorities, regardless of the sincerity of their convictions, to accept the will of the majority of the people of this coun try and thus demonstrate to the world that democracy can function in times of war as well as in times of peace. The brave men who signed the Declaration of Independence under stood the peril they accepted. They were not afraid of the responsibility of leadership and they faced reali ties. It is necessary for the people of this country today to be equally courageous in the face of an uncer tain future. Let us celebrate the Fourth of July, this year, in the firm convic tion that it is our first business to see that "Government of the people, by the people, for the people, shaH not perish from the earth." HA ait. y am. jiwvuicno) may be most effective. Aid to free dom through Britain is a clear-cut, simple proposition on which the coun try is united. The greatest oppor tunity at this moment is to give Bri tain every plane and tank that can be spared and use every ship and gun necessary to see that they reach the western front For to make that front active is the logical way to shorten the war. Every bit of damage Britain can do now in Germany not only weakens the Nazi drive on Russia; it helps to show the Oerman people that war does not pay and makes them more actively ready for peace. Supplies sent now will not .be aid to Britain, or merely front-line defense for the United States; they are aid to free dom and to real peace. The Chris tian Science Monitor.

HURDLETOWN Aid To Peace "Immediate attention and as favor able consideration as possible," is the answer the United States has given Russia on the question of aid against the Nazis. Since the main purpose of the LendiLease Act was to strength en the fight against Hitlerism, it is logical to furnish supplies to the most recent aggressee. Yet there are at least three practical limita tions on that "favorable considera tion." One is the fact of anti-Communist sentiment Another is the lack of Russian ships to carry supplies and the difficulty of getting others in a hurry. A third is the question whether war material going to Rus sia may not fall into Nazi hands. Whatever gestures the American Government makes, it is likely that actual Lend-Lease aid to the Soviet will be small. If the United States could to morrow decisively help Russia to keep the Nazis engaged on the east era front hesitation would be a mis take. For since the Nazis are the most active and immediate threat to freedom, aid to their opponents should be considered aid to freedom, sot to one country or another. But Americana need not let debate . concerning aid through Russia keep them from seizing the opportunity to supply more aid white and where it Captain Wilbur Stallings, Jr.. of Baltimore, Md., spent the week-end with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. J.
