Furthermore, as the U. 8. will perhaps be the only Allied Nation untouched by the phy sical damage and misery of the War. we will rightly be expected to bear the major part of the over-seas post war repair bill. The first stage of relief will be the feeding and sheltering of the home less and starving people of Conti- foreign holdings.

Liberation denotes the end itself. A .Washington newspaper editorial emphasises the different meanings of the two words this way: ”. . . Only the unimaginative can think in terms of invasion. That is a word of the head. Biit this Invasion is something In particular. It is In a class by Itself. Nothing like it, either in scope or purpose, has ever been at tempted la recorded history ... It will, pleMe God, banish the fear that for so long has been gnawing at the vitals of mankind and enable us all to see our stars agalq. Call^this an Invasion when our backs are turned to a dying world and we are fronting a world seeking to be bom,,? It is lib eration. That is a word of the heart Let us then call this invasion the Liberation—the end and not the means, the civilixing purpose and not the military mission, the war aim and not the battle operation.” Distance. nental Europe.

Perhaps some-years after the War, when the necessities of rebuilding the entire world's eco nomic structure become more clearly defined, H. S. Investors may have a part to play. However, In the Im mediate postwar period our help should constitute outright gifts or sales “ of materials ar cost—The In- vestment of capital should for the ucts will tend to break down the bar riers of race, language and religion. But for many years 1 am afraid that Uncle Sam may be looked upon as a Santa Claus or as a senile old man who foolishly risks his money abroad but who will be too proud or too feeble to insist upon an adequate re turn for his support.

As Congress is now fast draining our own industries of working capital, they will soon require all of our ac- <HHn«lated sevingSr Hr 8r unempioy- ment and the fulfillment of civilian requirements will also require vast amounts of money. Hence, I trust that a little Yankee common aense may prevail and that we may not en tirely expend our heritage! One thing more: Example is much more potent than precept. In the long run we can do the world the most good by put ting our own accounts in order.. This will nqt be a selfish thing for ua to do, but it will be for the good of the entire world to see one nation run honestly, intelligently and efficiently with Justice for all and favoritism to none.

The Inn, due to its pleasant en vironment, has been exceptionally popular for army officers and their wives, who come from FoiC ^icltsbh.

Many of them take advantage of the fine Kirkwood golf course to enjoy several rounds oy^ its undu lating fairways and fine grass greens, whUs here. Manager Slade, with his wife and son, will go north early in June, but plan to return late In July, to arrange for the closing of the Inn for August and September. He will then return north and remain in Newr England until late in September. He plans to be back in time to have the hotel in readiness for the Informal opening tor tourists and others on October 1. If the situation warrants, the botri will open immediately on the American plan. The Inn is one of the few tourists hotels in the south that has remained open during the summer. Manager Sisde stated that as Camden has a big air school here, he felt that keep ing his hotel open all year round was a defense necessity.
