southern end of the Malay penin-
sula.
The British don’t, indeed, pro-
pose to cede Singapore to us. but
they’d tremendously like to have
us make ourselves thoroughly at
home at their powerful, naval
base there. And for obvious rea-
sons; our men-o’-war would take
care of Xheir interests throughout
that area on the globe, leaving
their fleet free to operate else-
where— where it’s urgently need-
ed, heaven knows.
Philippines a Liability
Well, I never talked with a Un-
ited States naval officer who
didn’t say he considered the Phil-
ippines an unqualified strategic
liability to us. They’re so far off!
Hawaii, experts agree, is all right.
That’s rather nearer to pur Pa-
cific coast than it is to Japan. It’s
an invaluable Yankee outpost.
But the Philippines, clear across
the Pacific, are in the Japs’ very
dooryard; it would be a terrible
job to defend ’em at such long
range.
And Singapore’s a couple of
thousand miles farther yet.
If we take on that, assignment,
we become, as I had occasion to
quote Senator Arthur Capper the
other day, “the world’s police-
man.”
Critics of our island-acquiring
tendency find no fault-with our
assimilation of Caribbean lagoons
or of Newfoundland or eveh
Greenland, if available. They do
argue that we’d be stretching out
our neck injudicioiusly in the di-
rection of Singapore and that we’d
be making a serious mistake if
we were, to grab the Malvinas (or
Falkland) morsel from Argentina.
They add that there probably are
other islets that we’d be just as
well without.

A BIBLE THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK
So then everyone of us shall Rive an account of himself
to God.
Let us not, therefore, judge one another any more; but
judge this rather, that no man put a stumbling block or any
occasion to fall in his brother’s way—Romans 14:12. 13.

YEARBOOKS
The News job department has printed some ten or twelve
yearbooks for various civic clubs and organizations recent-

them is outlined a year’s work, intended for the betterment

AN HONORABLE PEACE
American isolationists would like very much to persuade
the United States that an early peace is possible. They use
such phrases as an “immediate” or an “honorable and just”
peace. t r
Senator Burton K. Wheeler is plausible when he argues
that the prospect of an actual Nazi invasion of the United
States is remote and that the German people want peace
dust as any other people do. But are not American interests
Bitally affected long before invasion-begins? And j? Ameri-
Ka the kind of a world citizen who can plaqidly, contentedly
w$tch burglars at work on other people’s houses so long

i Or if the German people do want peace, even a just
L.,. peace, what possibility is there that the present Nazi Gov-
^M-ainunent will let them have it? 2—
Van The Senator believes a satisfactory peace might be work-
ed oat on basis of eight points, among which he lists first, -- «■»- >

Central Press Columnist
Some of the, island bases that
Uncle Sam is acquiring or may
yet acquire from Britain, in con-
nection with his plan to help John
Bull win the war, undoubtedly
are well worth our having. To
our acquisition of a few of these
bases, however, there are certain
objections. Critics who are fa-
miliar with them are trying to
point out that we should not al-
low our appetite for islands to
lead us into overrating ourselves
on that particular diet.
For example, reports are cur-
rent that the British intend to
hand over to us the Falkland in-
sular group in the southern At-
lantic. The Buenos Aires news-
paper, Noticias Graficas, already
has published this rumor, and it
• immediately is evident that its
readers don’t like the idea a bit.
Anyone who’s acquainted with
the little archipelago’s history
can readily see why.
They’re nice islands, with a
first-rate harbor at Port Stanley.
They’re pretty flat, therefore well
adapted tq suit aviation’s needs.
Lying about 250 miles off the Ar-
gentine eoast, they have consid-
erable naval stragetic value in
their own part of the world.
But are they a possession that
Britain has any right to deliver
to us?
Claimed By Argentina
Originally, under the name of
the Malvinas isles, they belonged
to Spain. When the Argentines
cut loose from their parent coun-
try, they claimed the group as
part of their new republic. They
hadn’t the facilities then, though,
to police it effectively. It be-

It may well have been that this
particular man really was friend
4y to Christ, but his friends were
not.
