| shooting can he avoided. Bat virtu
I ally none believes that the whole
i nation Is aware of the troublous
> shoals ahead.
Voters who wrhe lu usually fall
Into several well-defined group*:
Those who want to see Hitter de
feuted at any cost, those who still
think '(he war Is none of our busti,
ii-ss. those who say wo should pre:
<ei ve social gains even If It means
, becoming a Cermun province, and
those who iusist we must set up a
[ totulltarliiii form of government
matching Hitler's
Of couiae, na most solum* see it.
'.here Is a iniddl way. ltut the majority
ure worried hy fear lost this
country, In supplying resistance to
^dictatorship. .destroy the very
thing it is seeking to preserve.
Whsi It gets around to is this:
. .-w- >vuei>e ?HII tw Wash
Congress recently has been to avoid
experiments and theories. So . the
planners have changed tactics. ln-"j
tlead of advocating their proposals
for the "generhl welfare" they now
| urge them as JDEFRNSB necessities
j One exafhple will suffice. Many
it stales have long conducted safety
it inspections of boilers. By and large
i, they have done a pretty good Job.
s Few holler explosions are heard of.
Yet now a bill has been introduced
d which for DEFENCE purposes
e ! would let Congress and the Federal
) government take over this state
h function.
Every plan, every proposal,
which Congress rejected lu compai
atively normal times is now being
dressed up iu a uniform, and its sup
i, porters are saying:" 'Look! Wo
n must pass this to speed defense!"
?o?
That tendency worries the legists
d tors, particularly those Who think
Li that Instead of trying new things
we should make workable those
laws already on the statute books.
>t Another thing which concerns them
d is belief expressed., by some con&tituents
that the job of building and
maintaining defense is easy,
n To counteract that belltW, Jfew
lr facts slowly are being made public,
to show that tanks and planes and
guns can't be built overnight and
,p by a few jfien.
I" For instance, it took 15 months to
/ build one plant, install the proper
machines,' train the workers, and
turn out a million shells. It will'
take only 60 days for the next mil
Hon.
n Another example is this: A huge,
five ton multiple spindle bar machine
would have to work constantly
two and a half days to turn out
J enough bullet cores to keep one ma
gr -thine guu firing for a single hour.
Already, the" nation's plants are
d humming at top speed. Contracts
1- have been placed with them for &>f
bout $13 billion wortn of defense
goods. But not Including what will
develop later this year or irr years
tl to follow. Congress has approved or
>r is in the process of voting more
r than $42 billion ? nearly three and
a halt times as much.
t
s The job grow* bigger daily. Moat
t patriotic legislators hope It won't
ho (ntArfArod wish kw *?
vw ttiiu w/ ucuiuuuo wr
d new experiments, or by demands
for* maintenance of SOCIAL gains
no matter what tke*8edt'""'
t. The current Congressional fear la
put this way by Rep. Bumners of
f' Texas, who is regared by his cols'
leagues as one of the soondeet ieg'
Islators in 'Washington:'
"We are repeating the mistakes i
ir of Prance. I warn you, the boys in
uniform won't knock off at 5 -o'clock ,
n They'll stand the night watches."
