CONGRESS VOTES WAR
M «intiniM*il from I'ntro Onek were reported holding their ground after having sunk two enemy traits ports ami destroyed at least one company of enemy troops. The Japanese claimed that they had sunk two British gunboats near Hong Kong. Other claims broadcast by the of ficial Japanese news agency from Tokyo included: destruction of 197 American airplanes in two days, including 45 shot down and 71 destroyed on the ground at Iba, in the Philippines; sinking of an American destroyer. a submarine and a special service ship. Th? 1 German propadanda agency reported that the United States aircraft cai tier Lexington of 33,000 tons had been sunk off Hawaii, but Tokyo made no definite claim in this connection. The Japanese, however, did report the capture of Guam, where 350 Americans were taken prisoner, and called upon the Dutch East Indies to surrender because Japan had “brok- • on" British American sea power in the Pacific and a fight would be useless. The Dutch replied by sending sir reinforcements to British Malaya.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 11 —(UP) — The capital settled down today to the grim business of being general headquarters of the war against Japan. Officials took the bad news wiih the good and waited patiently for more—probably of both. Early today they were cheered by Manila reports of an apparently successful bombing attaci; upon a 29,000-ton Japanese battleship. It followed by only a few hours the war department's second communique revealing that a strong Japanese attack against the west coast of Luzon in the Philippine Islands had been repulsed "with apparent heavy enemy
losses."
The bad news, which Presidcn’ Rcosevelt told the nation Tuesday night it must be prepared to receive, still came from Hawaii the scene of the first Japanese attack upon
American territory.
The only additional information of that "serious naval setback" was the navy's announcement that Rear
Jay. He was in command of a batJeihip division of the Pacific fleet, ut the navy did net reveal the name >f the vessel which was his flagship.
])c*l 9 auw (ItapH Out of a twenty-five year old scrap book. Dr. William E. Edingtom, head of the Department of Mathematics )f DePauw University, read excerpts from a speech made at the beginning of World War I to a group of students at the University of New Mexico. Then, as now, the question of the success of Christianity had been raisrd. It i snot that Christianity itself has failed, Dr. Fklington indicated, it is only that it has never been praciced or tried. He pointed out the act that nations honor their soldiers rather than their altruists. At the time of the first wot Id war, Dr. Edington recalled, the emergence of the Japanese nation into world affairs was being felt. In his earlier speech -he had said that the Japanese were abandoning their ancient religion to adopt Christianity because of the freedom of action it allowed. The Japanese followed the actions of Christian nations rather than Christian precepts. One thing, however, our present situation should prove and that is that isolationism is not possible. We have, he pointed out. shared our culture, our religion, our science, and we cannot isolate ourselves politically. But whatever happens, he continued, we must realize that war is not Christian and never- can be. “Let us be cold bloode,d if we have to be cold blooded," he concluded, "but let s rot kid ourselves that we are being Christian."

MOTHER KINDS MISSING SON IN NEWS PHOTOGRAPH ROOSEVELT, Utah (UP) The most prized possession of Mrs. A He Wardle is a frayed newspaper p cture that shows a son she had given up a : dead for more than six months, still very much alive and fighting on with the Royad Air Force in the bat-
tle of Britain.
Mrs. Wardle has not heard from her 27-year-old son, Farrell, since h. wrote her- from Nova Scot.a last October that he was going to England to join the R. A. F. When, in succeeding months, she failed to receive further word from her son, Mrs. Wardle abandoned hope that she would ever seen him again, alive. It was only recently that she picked up a Salt Lake City newspaper and there recognized, in a picture of the R. A. F.'s American Eagle .squadron, the unmistagable features of Farrell Wardle. It was a shock,
but a welcome one.
Mrs. Wardle has written to officers of the squadron—made up of
court. The prr wnt session of court, which is in its closing days, i.i the September term, it closing Decembe 20, and the succeeding term, known as the January term, opens January 5. • The January term will continue until April 4, a period of 78 court days. ADDRESSES ROTARY
