Their wholpj theory Is c ontrary to the American way of life. They have no place In this country, for any party or group that attempts to destroy our form of government is an enemy of America.

Despite weather conditions and athletic events and even the temptations Incident to tbe hunting season, they report at thy office tor their papers, so they can be delivered to your door step They are flue boys and no matter bow big or great a newspaper is, it has to be delivered by alert energetic and courtaous boys.

After reading all the advice of the editorial writers, it la well to remember that America's president. the Secretary of State, mem here of the cabinet and the Congress also know what is going on Thia country is being guided by an able hand in the White House and laying aside partisan feeling*. I most of us feel that the president I is more determined to keep th*- i Cnttc c| States at peace than some | of th*- polltit ally-minded writers I would like.
