DRAFTED MEN

By ERAINE TURIN According to the more recent accounts that have come in, I find many of you, drafted mothers of our nation, seem to be taking on the inward conflict from which others are suffering. It is the conflict which civilian "war burdens" as a rule, create. And you are yielding to it, even though the giving of your sons to your country may have put such a weight in your hearts that all civilian "war burdens" are light by comparison. But now that other civilians have had war brought closer to them-now that other civilians have had the demands of sacrifice put upon them-now that other civilians may not accept the "war burdens" as readily as you, because they have no sacrifice of sons to make-their heaviness of spirit is beginning to be felt by you. In brief, you apparently are succumbing to the general indignation which sudden alterations of living and personal deprivations inspire. These are the "war burdens" which weigh heavy with the majority of civilians. Such sudden alterations always bring in their course an inward conflict; and if not arrested when in embryo, they can encourage an outward conflict among our people. And that conflict in a nation weakens that nation, at a time when the strength of unity is most essential. Let us, therefore, analyze of what stuff that inward conflict is made. A man who lives in a coastal city of strict gasoline rationing must resort to other transportation than his automobile, he is likely to become rebellious with conditions. His emotions are in conflict. Thus do civilian "war burdens" create an inward conflict. But as he learns to desire less, in that degree the conflict lessens. In order to win in time of war, the course for us all to follow is to get a true picture of every situation and then alter, not the situation, but our desires according to it. In that case, we should find less conflict within ourselves and thereby be more able to cope with what is required of us. In every sudden change many maladjustments are bound to exist at the out-set. There are many coastal cities today that require a larger share of gasoline than others. For example, let us consider the Miami area. In that section the bus is the only method of public transportation. There the coverage is extremely large and many localities cannot be reached easily by bus. Furthermore, the average run of the busses is from twenty to thirty minutes. Under these conditions the situation squarely-keep our desires well in hand-we should find that an adjustment is soon to be made so that our coastal cities which have better means of transportation will not, of necessity, be made to forfeit some of their quotas to a community like that of the Miami area. It is all a matter of adjustment and if we do not come to our bridges too soon, we shall discover them not so difficult in crossing when we do arrive there. Inward conflict can cause us more damage than all the bridges that bear no crossing. The problem is not so much with the "war burdens" as it is with the war we wage with our own selves. Drafted mothers of our nation, you, perchance, more than most civilians, must get a truer picture of the burdens which had impetus on such and every one of us. For the fact that your sons are in the service gives you such realization. And because you see the picture clearly-not dimmed by antagonisms over civilian frustrations-the "war burdens" you endure become illuminated by the light of your clear seeing. Moreover, the greater your seeing capacity - proportionately the less weight you carry from these "war burdens." On this account you should be able to bring that light to others, instead of being blinded yourself by their unseeing. (Copyright, 1942)

Pink candles set in green gum drop leaves on a pink iced cake centered the table; also decorated in pink roses from the hostess' garden. Mrs. Ward wore one of the new blue print summer voiles. Mrs. Harris was in blue and white polka dot linen and crepe. There were ten guests.

Mary Baxter, James LaPointe Win American Legion Medals

Mary Baxter and James Edward LaPointe, two outstanding eighth grade students at St. Theresa's Parochial School, were awarded American Legion medals last Thursday at assembly. The awards, bestowed by Sheldon Grebe, member of Coral Gables Post No. 98, were made for honor, courage, scholarship, leadership and service. Selection was made by popular vote of the students. James Edward LaPointe also drew for the annual Knights of Columbus award. The eighth graders also were cited for their labors in collecting the most waste paper during a specified time. Under the direction of Mrs. John H. Waters and Mrs. Richard H. Simpson of the Parent-Teacher Association, they collected 65,000 pounds of scrap paper, thereby earning $250 for the P.-T. A. fund. Sergeant Thomas Jones completed his 42 years with the detachment which rendered honors when Old Glory was first raised over American Samoa in 1900.

Parole Commissioner Lion's Club Speaker

The operation of the State Parole Board was explained to the Coral Gables Lions Club on Wednesday, by Richard D. Dodge, Miami Parole Commissioner. Dodge spoke at the Club's weekly luncheon at the Coral Gables Country Club. He pointed out that the parole system was effective because it helps rehabilitate criminals, restores them to productivity and saves the state approximately $300,000 a year. He based this figure on the fact that the state spends about $350 a year per prisoner when they are confined. He further stated that by paroling prisoners before they have served their full time that bitterness against society is completely eliminated in the majority of cases.

Mark Sullivan's Column

Continued from Page Six accept part of it-say 5 or 10 or something like that-in war bonds. The bonds would not be transferable, so they would be sure to remain in possession of those who get them, as certain savings. These five are pending suggestions. Some will certainly be adopted, and still more. The underlying fact is that the money must be got. It is an interesting sign of the times that there is occasional mention of lotteries as a possible way of raising national revenues. Bills providing for a lottery have been introduced in Congress, but have not received serious attention. The underlying condition is clear and imperative. The Government simply must get back much of the new money it is creating. One reason is obvious-the Government needs the money. A second reason, not always understood, has to do with inflation. If this great quantity of new money remains in the hands of those who receive it, they will start to buy things. But things to buy are scarce or non-existent-autos, tires, practically everything. A large amount of money trying to buy a small amount of goods woul result in mad prices, higher cost of living, danger of inflation. (Copyright, 1942, New York Tribune, Inc.)

Barges, Tugs To Carry Oil

TALLAHASSEE, May 29 (FNS). - Governor Spessard Holland was informed this week that the Federal Government planned to order 300 barges and 150 tugs for use in the transportation of oil from Gulf ports via inland waterways to the Atlantic seaboard. This equipment, it was claimed, would have a carrying capacity of 35,000 barrels of oil or gasoline a day. When these barges are put into operation it will do much to relieve the critical shortage that has necessitated the issuance of ration cards in eastern and seaboard states. Florida has repeatedly called Washington's attention to the advantage of using our cross-state canal, from Fort Myers to the Atlantic via Lake Okeechobee and other inland waterways, as a means of meeting the U-boat menace, but this is the first evidence that the matter was being considered. No information is available as to how long it will take to secure the barges and tugboats or when the service may be expected to start.
