McOULLOM LAKE li Defease of America One of the important subjects now before the Congress and one that has been given -a large share of Congressioiial attention during the past week is that of' National Defense, Your Congressman is of the firm opinion that our Navy, oar Army, and especially our air force must be built up to a point where we will be able to turn back any aggressor or group of aggressors that seek to set foot on any land in the western hemisphere. Our nation must be placed in a poaition where it will be able to strictly enforce the Monroe Doctrine. We cannot afford to let any foreign power get a foothold or a base in the western hemisphere and we must be strong enough to enforce ou* demands that they stay out. Force and might are the only language that are understood today and it is absolutely imperative that we speak this language. We feel certain that the great majority of the American people agree with us in this regard. In accordance with the recommendations made by the President in his recent appearance before the Congress a huge national defense proerram has been started on its way. The recommendations of the President. Who is the Chief Executive Officer of our nation, are being given immediate consideration by the Congress. <3 After talking with many members of both the House snd Senate it is the writer's oninion that Congress is ready and willing to co-operate fully in preparing our nation for any eventuality. Th® principal auestion being asked is, "Why didn't the President discover that our national defesec were in such a deplorable condition lomr before this time; and what nse ha« been made of the several bijlion dollars that the Congress has anpropriated supposedly for national defense?" ' As we have stated, the'President is the Chief Executive Officer of our nation snd b*en f*>r seven years. As =nch he hi« h»er» the Commfl^der- ;«-Chief of .our Army .and our Navy. Hp has «!«o b«en in strict control of his Partv for the sam^leneth of time. He cannot contend lack of Congressional co-operation because durine his p"tir$ tenure of office he has strict1 y dominated both Houses of Congress. At po ti"°e since he has been President hss he been without hutre Democrtic majorities in each bodv of the legislative branch of our eovemment and has had Democratic chairmen and Democratic majorities in every committee. Congress has appronriat"d several billion dollars fo»- sunoosed national defense. The nublic is entitled to a full explanation relative to the disposition of the°o fund*. He has been flomma^der-in-Chief of our srm»d forces for seven v°srs j»nd has been in a oosition wherein full information i*^ncernincf our natio^il defenses -fcould been at his fin»™r tins.

Since the Soeretarv of War ?r,d the Secretary of Nnvv are members of tM President's Cabinet, there ran be no excuce for failure to provide national defense. Now the Administration is finding its chickens of negligence coming home to roost before the eyes of an enraged American public. Excuses are failures. Steps should have been taken long ago to provide our country withw adequate defense. We have been for it; we are for it now. We are glad that the Administration has finally realized it and we hope that the American public will fully co-operate with the national defense program. Politics should be divorced from national defense and because we believe this to be true, we think that the President should issue a statement announcing that he will not accept a Third Term. *0« Special 0« Lux* mnd Matter D* Lux* Svriei EYE IT" TRY IT • • BUY IT!
