Catholics there hold about and chaos must inevitably result. That is what President Roosevelt had in mind when he lashed out against the “outlaw nations” of the world. Most authorities are agreed that a boycott of Japanese-made goods and an embargo on all shipments to the island kingdom would be as effective in bringing the Nipponese to their senses as would armed warfare—and without the spilling of a single drop of blood. Unless Japan can get munitions of war from abroad, she cannot wage war indefinitely. Certinly, we, as individuals, would refuse to sell machine-guns and bullets to gangsters to be used in the wholesale and bloody mur der # of de-fenseless men, women and children, nor would we, know ingly, sell them gasoline to use in getting to the scene of their crime. Why then should we, as a nation, sell oil, gasoline, scrap- iron, cotton and other articles so vitally necessary to modem war-1 every position from King or Presi dent down to High and Exalted Rat Exterminator. Yet the Pope is attackdj and the church is de spoiled. So we needn't worry about the Catholics; they are just as loyal to our country as we are. The Jews? Few countries there are which do not molest them. This is one. The average Jew loves this country. Let’s quit seeing “spooks.” “spooks”. An effort will be made to make a trade by which a sop will be given to cotton farmers in return for Southern support of the Wages and Hours bill. In this matter we find politicians meddling with busi ness. So it behooves business men to stand up for the business of the country. Putting aside the political as pect of this Wage and Hour Bill— and it is purely political so far as Congijisa is corremed—What ia there at bottom?
