Rotunda
Gleanings By T1IELMA COURTNEY In recent weeks a couple of4 prominent men have voiced their firm beliefs that America is on the wrong track, that this is not our war and that England cannot possibly win the present conflict. In answer to these proclamations and pessimistic statements such peop'e as Dorothy Thompson. Walter Winchell and other muchread columnists have resorted to Impassioned arguments and name calling in answer to this opposition to their views. Charles A. Lindbergh is the leader and the most outspoken of this group of appeasers. idealist, prophets or whatever you choose to call them, and he has naturally received the greatest amount of criticism mainly because of the position he had as Colonel in the Reserves. He was forced through true army codes to resign this position when his commander In chief, the President. said he was unfit to continue service in the United States army 'f such were his beliefs. Lindbergh Condemned Immediately people of all sorts began ca'ling him Pro-Nazi, traitor and all those vie names that come to angry minds before they have looked at both sides of the situation. The opinion expressed by many was that since he was ■In such a position he did not have any right to express his opinion before the public. This is not actually the true case, for being In the Reserves simply means that one has prepared himself for service and has stated that he is willing and ready to serve at the shortest notice from his government Had he been in such active service he could be readily criticized for speaking as he did concerning the outcome of the war, but he was really speaking as a private citizen and therefore the question of whether or not he could speak freely in a free country must be answered in the affirmative vilhether or not we agree with what he has said and what he maintains he will continue to say. Arguments Listed Whether or not we agree with his views we should stop and consider them and why he says them other than, as Miss Thompson maintains, to get a little publicity It hardly seems fair to say right off that one who states what he thinks and gives his reasons for it Is Just doing so for publicity. It seems that those reasons which he gave were naturally ones that would occur to an air-minded person such as Mr. Lindbergh—that is the fact that England Is much more easily attacked by air from the French-German bases than Germany is. the distance being much less and the amount of fuel and endurance naturally being less. Such arguments as his should and can be reasoned with and against, but it Is not such a good dsplay of reasoning when we ca'l one a Nazi just because he has put himself In a position In which most of the pro-Nazis have put themselves. There must be some NU m for these too quick answers to what Mr Lindbergh has said and there are many possibilities of which one can only make a guess as to the real answer to the situation. Can it be that those who jump up in fury against him are afraid he is right, afraid he can prove what he says and are afraid to give him a chance? That Is one possibility, we hope not the real reason, but then It may be. Another possibility Is that they really think he wants Germany to win. Tills however does not in any way fit In with what he has said, in that he believes In an Ideal sort of freedom from those influences which are the characteristics of Nazism. Too Late for Questions The third and probably most logical cause for their trying to shut him up, to get people not to listen to his words, Is that they are afraid a defeatist attitude will be built up in this country. Whether or not this should be our war. whether or not we should help England win for our own sakes is certainly a very debatable question, but the fact remains that It Is too late to ask those questions now. We have already made It our war and we cannot suddenly back out. Wherever It leads us Continued on Page 3

Women in the Armed Forces We usually think only of the men in the aimed forces of our country, but besides the women who type and tile and perform housekeeping functions in the Departments of War and Navy, there are 1,138 women serving as regular nurses in the Army Nurse Corps. An additional i")ii reserved have already been added to the regular staff, and by July this number will be increased to 4,000. In the armed forces a c also some 90 civilian nurses and 222 women medical technologists, working as denial hygienists, therapy aides, and dietitians. Much publicity has ben given to the new hostess jobs in the Army, created as an innovation to supply a woman's service in connection with leisure-time activities in Army camps. But since 10,000 women applied for the 100 available hostess jobs, il may be well not to direct too much attention to this new opening for women.

For one session, the N. Y. A. payroll is 512.405. At other schools, there are some mighty ambitious students, too. Take John Briley of Emory University.

Briley ( mployed eight boys to dig common earth worms. rheee he kept m dirt-filled barrels in iis garage, fattening them with orn meal, bananas and coffee oounds. His supply could hardly meet the demands of local fishermen and he made more than $2.000 on the part-time project in four years. Then there is Ernest Atkins, a freshman at Emory who is paying his way through college with five jobs. An experienced soda jerker when he reached college, he immediately landed two part-timi' jobs in that field. Then he landed ail NYA job working in the dormitory' office in Alabama hall. After that, he decided he didn't need any sleep, so he started throwing the morning paper. Finally, he became campus agent for a cleaning firm. He sleeps four hours a night, goes to Saturday night dances, and sleeps late Sunday morning. And his grade average is B plus!
