—AND—
EVERYWHERE
By George M. Scheer
There are times when life be
comes terrible and intolerable,
when death is something which is
looked forward to. Such are the
times when we shudder with
dread for those we love and the
land which has been our home,
when the future is hopelessly
black.
I have just completed reading
OUT OF THE NIGHT, a book by
Jan Valtin, Our president must
have read this book, or had simi
lar information at his hand to
cause him to push for speed our
national defense and aid to Britain.
After reading, I feel almost
frantically that we must HURRY
HURRY, HURRY!
This is an autobiography. The
life of this man, Jan Valtin, is
ebroiled with first the Communist
movement, and later the German
Gestapo. The horrible details of
these movements separtely. and
now combined, makes me tremble
to think what might happen to our
beautiful land with its fine clean
people, and our children, ;f this
blight should touch our shores.
There is a. particularly gloomy
prospect to be considered. If, and
when, democracy through the vie.
tories of England, overcome the
forces of the devil incarnate in the
armies of Nazi Germany and So
viet Russia, what will happen to
the German people and others like
them, who have been raised to be.
lieve that these teachings which
come out of the “pit of the night”
arfe right?
Our prayers must be for speed
that it shall not be too late. The
labor unionists and industrialists
who may have a hand in build
ing up national defense ought be
made to read this book. The ap
peasers, and blockers against pre
paredness should read every line.
and if this cannot satisfy them,
t p e y with other obstructions
should be packed up on a ship and
sent to Germany and see for
themselves what CAN happen to
a beautiful land and once-noble
people.
What has come to Poland,
France, and bombed England, is
as nothing compared to the fear
ful change to the souls of a whole
nation of the Germans.
Every American should read Jan
Valtin’s “Out of the Night”,^it will it
not make him or her happy, but
will open his eyes. It will cause
each to cry for speed lest it be
too late.
This is Court Week in our home
town. Courts where .justice may
be found and mercy shown, are

still the heritage and privilege of
tree people and found only in de
mocracies. Thank God for our
courts, our jury system, and the
right of Life, Liberty, and the Pur
suit of Happiness, as protected by
our courts.
Can we properly appreciate what
this Pursuit of Happiness means?
That we can meet and talk with
our friends without the fear of
spies or secret police. That we can
practice whatever religion our
convictions lead us to, and be not
afraid.
That we can still sing “Our
1 Country ’Tis Of Thee” and not
fear a firing squad will silnece the
song. God Bless America, and help
free people wherever they maj '
be.
Let the Unions which unreason
ably strike, and industrialists who
attempt to take advantage of the
present emergency, realize that
their’s is not a private quarrel but
an obstruction and slowing down
of our protective efforts to save
our dear land from the scourge
now sweeping Europe.
They had better bury their dif
ferences, or we won’t have a coum
try to save!
All over Georgia today, and
probably in other Southern states,
a drive is being made to organize
tiie fanners. If any group of peo
ple need organization, it is the
farmer. It is only too true, that he
has been the most exploited group
of our people. For a Long time
Farm Relief came to be known as
relieving the farmer of what wa.s
his by fair means and foul
. . .
the farmer needs organization more
now than ever.
However, those who accept the
responsibility for farm organization
should realize the tremendous ob
ligation which is their’s. The farm
er has been betrayed in the past,
he will not stand for it again.
One of the most vicious condi
tions of past farm organizations,
has been, that politics in its most
vicious form had gotten an upper
hand Be careful that politics will
