The early chill of winter creeps over the world.
: In France, the suffering to come was presaged last week
by a coal ration limiting families as large as nine persons: to
430 pounds for an entire mc:.th. Not only cold, but hunger
~and malnutrition and resultant disease, must be the ordeal for
millions in a score of nations.
No American family, not even the humblest and poorest,
need look forward in dread of starvation and exposure. Rearmament costs may thin out the luxuries in American life;
but our sick will be cared for, our destitute fed and clothed.
In Europe, governmental changes are being made monthly by ruthless decree at the point of the sword—with victors
hunting down minorities like animals, with freedom of
thought and speech and political action abrogated and sneered at. <r
‘ In America, 50,000,000 citizens have just completed a
major decision on government—divided so evenly in opinion
that the minority is hardly 5,000,000 fewer than the majorify. But no blood has flowed. The ranks of citizenry have closed up to march on united—the minority accepting the decisign with good will, because no man in consequence of hiv
stand is affronted or silenced. or penalized, or forced to
abandon his convictions on right and truth.
In the bombed ruins of-Europe’s: glorious cities, built by
the toil and genius of cénturies, young men die in uniforms
and children huddle terrified in air raid shelters.
_ In the new, modern cities of youthful America, young
men strive’ lustily in-football suits, and carefree children play
joyously in the bright sunlight of school yards.
Many among us have ‘worries and unhappiness—business troubles, unemployment, illness, and plain tough luck.
But unfortunate indeed must be the American who, contrast‘ing the situation of himself, his family and his country with
the grief and horror and privation beyond the seas, cannot
give spontaneous and heartfelt thanks on Thanksgiving Day
of, 1940.—Contributed. © ok
. : The Crusade Goes On!
-!. Enough time has passed now since the presidential election So that témpers have cooled somewhat, bitterness’ has
faded—and the good sportsmanship of the American people
is starting to assert itself. In any crisis which may confront the
nation, Président ‘Roosevelt willi:have the wholehearted, unselfish support of those who worked the hardest to defeat him.
at is the way of America—and it is a good way, the very
éssence of American democracy.
Unity is now the keynote. And the American people,
facing a need for united action to speed the national defense
program, will move forward together. Any European war
lord who thinks differently had better check, up on,,American
ghistory. eee
There is a‘ distinction here,, however, with avery — real
difference. Unity, in the United States of America, does not
mean servility, nor subservience. In Nazi Germany, after Hitler came to power, ‘‘unity’’ was achieved by méans of sending dissenters to concentration camps, or standing them up
before firing squads. But in this country, fortunately, we
recognize that a militant, organized minority is the best possible guarantee that the majority party will stay. within bounds
and keep faith with the people. :
This election, as presidential elections go, was a hotlycontested, close race. Wendell Willkie polled the greatest vote
-ever recorded a Republican candidate for president in the history of the country. He acquired stature as a great crusader
and a determined leader. And a switch of only about a million
votes:from the Roosevelt column to Willkie in key states
would have made. Willkie president. Some 22,000,000 voters
swore allegiance to the principles of Willkie’s crusade—and
_ chanted “We Want Willkie’ even in face of defeat.
Wendell Willkie has announced that he will continue to
crusade for the principles he and his followers believe in; he
has also announced he will work for ‘‘the unity of our people
in the completion of our defense program, in sending aid to
Britain and in removing class antagonisms in America.”’ And
that is probably the finest service he could render both his
country and President Roosevelt. He is a worthy antagonist.
And so long as he continues his crusade both the 26,000,000
_who voted fér Roosévelt and the 22,000,000 who voted for
Willkie, will be fairly well assured of a square deal in the halls
of government.—Contributed.

another wonderland of the Golden State, autumn leaves are
fluttering down to rest, like parti-colored birds upon ‘the soft
wild grasses, which are already covering thé brown eart’:
with tapestries of living green. California is once again entéring upon her, “‘half a year of clouds and flowers.” ‘
I wonder how we can be oterwise than thankful at
this magic season of the year — thankful for the dear companionship of loved ones, faithful-friends and kindly neighbors;,,thankfvl for social, educational and spiritual advantages, which at the present time are greater and more wide'y
disseminated than at any other period of national
thankful for the beauty which unfolds about us as the autumn
days pass by; thankful for American homes both great and
small,‘wherein the family group goes about daily activities in
the enjoyment of those inherent rights of life, liberty and the
pursuit of happiness guaranteed under our democratic form
of government; thankful that our starry flag: still floats above
a land at peace.
What of the nation’s future in a world of wretchedness?
That is for us to determine, for we, the people, by our
thoughts, words and actions, the co-operation we give to those
things which make for righteousness and the contributions
we make to the cause of peace, national security and progress
every true American's desire. :
In these dark days of world distress, may America’s star
of destiny shine out, and may we gather inspiration from the
lines written by our own California poet, Joaquin Miller, and
determine to—‘‘sail on.”’
“Then, pale and worn, he paced his deck
And peered through darkness. Ah, that night
Of all dark nights! And then a speck—
A light! A light! At last a light!
It grew, a starlit flag unfurled!
It grew to be time’s burst of dawn.
He gained a world! He gave that world
Its grandest lesson: ‘“‘On! Sail on!’’
