All the civilized world now struggling against the tyranny of the Axis would be grateful for the aid of St. Patrick's eland in the conflict. Many Irishmen of this country who waded into the war with both fists figuratively flying, are debating the wisdom of Ireland's aloofness.

Even now, we can surmise fairly well, that Germany having been bomb plowed and cultivated in so far as its large cities are concerned, our navy will merely carry our troops to landing beaches, and then the infantry will march in to take over territory that has already capitulated to the armadas of the sky. Of course, it wont be that simple: But as compared with what it would have been without an overwhelming air force, -it will be far less costly in lives. What Churchill said, regarding so man owing so much to so few, is still true. The primary force in this war as it will be in time to come, are the planes which blast a path for the army and navy. To all civilians, those who do battle on land; on the sea and in the air, are heroes. Our boys in the air who give their own lives to save thousands of others fills us with a special sense of loss,. and, of gratitude.
