Tur WHIRLPOOL 7 FULL SPEED AHEAD Today we are facing an international as well as national emer- gency. After many small defenseless democracies have been swal- lowed up by the dictatorial governments, we see that if we don't prepare ourselves at once these countries which are led by tyran- nical dictators will also try to take over America. Our country is full of spies, sympathizers of Hitlerism, Fas- cism, Communism, and other non-American, unpatriotic groups. We must be rid of these non-patriots, for we won't have any secrets of our army, navy, and defense program as the war con- tinues. The defense machine is now getting into high gear. We are training thousands of men who will fight in our army if we enter the war. We are sending supplies to England and other brave countries which are trying to fight off the Axis Powers. We have only one stumbling block, but this is in our own coun- try. This obstacle is the strikes caused by the Labor Unions. Ex- perts say that we will be in the war by July. If this is true we can't be hampered by the strikes if we ever expect to be prepared and fully armed by then. England, our first line of defense, needs the supplies that are being held up by the Labor leaders who cause the strikes. Let us be rid of those who wish to hold up our produc- tion line. All of us can help bolster our defense. Yes, even the American youth. Of course, there aren’t many of our youths old enough to make airplanes, guns, etc., but we can all help by fighting against spies and enemy agents. We have a powerful defender in our knowledge of what is going on. We are more informed than the youth of any other country in the world. Our health is another weapon. If we keep this we will be phy- sically fit for the Army, Navy or the Marine Corps. We must remember that we youth are the future citizens of America. We have indeed something to fight for. If we rid ourselves of our stumbling block, we will be far ahead on our Defense Program. May the dictators always be op- pressed! ARNOLD Hatt, '43
