RED CROSS NEEDS Faced i a growing demand for Red Cross assistance to the stricken populations of Europe's waning nations and a need for strengthening its domestic operations, the American Red Cross embark November 11 on the greatest membership campaign since the World The appeal will be carried by the 10,000 chapters and branches of the organization located in virtually every community in the country. Starting Armistice Day, Roll Call will extend through November 30. Prior to the outbreak of hostilities in Europe, the American Red Cross planned to appeal for a million more members in an effort to strengthen its services in this country.

War, how ever, has increased the responsibilities of the Red Cross to the point where even greater membership support is needed to meet the appeals from abroad. The Red Cross is obligated by the Treaty of Geneva to assist in alleviating the sufferings of war. Chapters throughout the country already have started the production of garments for the needy civilian populations of belligerent countries, while a limited number of chapters are now preparing hundreds of thousands of surgical dressings for use at the front. The success of Roll Call this year will gauge the amount ot assistance the American Red Cross can give the sick and injured ot war and the comfort that can be brought to refugees and other non-combatants fleeing the danger zones. BOOST FOR EDUCATION The dictators, in the opinion of President Robert M.

Hutchins of Chicago University, have inadvertently accomplished one good thing for Americans. They have helped our education. Shocked by the suppression of academic freedom in totalitarian countries, we have rallied to its defense in our own uni- colleges and public schools. Furthermore, many of the leaders in thought and education who have been exiled irom their native lands because of their intellectual independence have found new opportunity lo teach and speak here. At the University of Chicago, says Dr.

Hutchins, "hardly a department from art to zoology has failed to benefit from the determined ignorance of the totalitarian regimes." In another way, too, they have served this cause. They have set many Americans to studying history and and racial cultures. The result will be a better understanding not only of current affairs but of the development of civilization and the part an intelligent nation can take in its further ance.

New Orleans, UP)--Mechanization of the cotton kingdom, proceeding at a terrific pace, has displaced thousands of farm families. Most rapid mechanization has occurred in the southwest, where Texas farmers have added more than 7,000 tractors per year on the average for the past decade. The trend is widespread also in the Old South. A WPA research, report shous that in the 1930-3S period the number of tractors increased 122 per cent in the western cotton areas; 127 per cent in the delta region, and 90 per cent in the eastern cotton states. All of this means that fewer human beings are needed to produce cotton.

A National Resources Committee report says the number of man-hours required to produce a bale of cotton was 304 in 1880, 285 in 1900 and 235 in 1930. A WPA report says the average has been reduced from 271 in 1907-11 to 218 in 1933-36. C. Horace Hamilton, economist of the Texas Agricultural Experiment station, says: "The displacement of from three to five families by one tractor is not uncommon. Assuming that one tractor will displace one family only, more than 60,000 farm, families have probably been dis- placed from Texas farms since 1900.

"Many move to poor farms, unsuited to cotton production with tractors. A larger number migrate to towns and cities to become common laborers. Many remain in the open country as farm or common laborers. "The displaced family faces the prospect of a lower income. The typical farm tenant in the high plains or the blacklands may be expected to earn a net income of from to 51,000 annually, even with cotton prices as they are today.

As either a common or an agricultural laborer the same tenant cannot be expected to earn more than $250 to $300." THAT BODY By James W. Barton, M.D, (Registered in accordance with the Copyright Act.)

5--Regardless of how pleasant or unpleasant may be the effect on either set of belligerents, the United States government will not tate to transmit peace offers or otherwise advance the cause of peace. Rumors and reports from Europe that America would be invited to sit in on any council to make peace have been unofficially discussed, but, until a concrete proposal confronts the American government, no official comment can be made. The desire, however, to end the European war at the earliest possible moment and to persuade each side to consider an armistice runs strong in the official group. It is well recognized that Great Britain must publicly say that no peace terms can be accepted which do not provide for an attainment' of objectives for which she went to war, and it is likewise understood that Germany cannot publicly set 'forth terms which would involve a retreat. But underlying the peace talk is a frank realization that Germany does not want to keep on fighting, and that the British and French would welcome an honorable way out.

The war was begun in the first instance without taking into account that the British and French would fight. Herr Hitler felt confident he could depend on a local- ised war, that, as soon as he seized and subjugated Poland, all would be over. He may have even reasoned that, in view of the British treaty with Poland, the former could not avoid participation, but that, if confronted with a conquered Poland, the British might subsequently take a different view. Herr Hitler miscalculated the British position and now wants to end the war. He is too well acquainted with British pro nouncements to think that a mere restatement of his pacific aims toward the British and French would be adequate.

He knows that some form of guarantee must be forthcoming which would satisfy British ahd French opinion. With the entrance ot Russia into the picture as guardian ot a collection of lesser states, thus blocking Nazi progress to the east, Herr Hitler cannot be at happy now as his makeshift alliance seemed last month to indicate. That Hitler wants peace now is unquestionably true. Shall his effort be spurned just because he hu made a miiUke? Are tht ii. lied statesmen shrewd enough to penetrate the bluff and thrutiuS bluster of public speeches realize that a prolonged war means the economic rum Europe? Thert may havt to h.

a good deal of iwallowini of on each aide, but loss ajE? of nfgligihlf importance is forthcoming a guaranty tajS constant recurrence of the force a means of boundaries. Maybe the statesmanship of the world is ready to return to ctiiec. live security--a family of nation instead of a balance of armed power--and maybe the German people will join such a union'to- day in the midst of a war they cannot possibly be relishing. An association of nations which does not provide for a gradual reduction of armament would be futile, but also any association of nations which did not provide for a gradual revision of territorial and economic arrangements of the past would be equally futile. The key to peace is right here in Washington.

If the isolationist group which is so eager to keep American boys and American families from being dragged into war would use their talents and energies to get back of plans to formulate a world peacee program, the embargo issues would soon become academic. But unhappily in the past the same group which is now fighting a revision of the embargo has been opposing all effort to exert on behalf of America any tangible influence for international cooperation. The United States may have been unsuccessful in 1915 and 1916 in endeavoring to persuade the belligerents to lay down their arms, but it ultimately turned out that America was able, as a consequence of those preliminaries to bring about an armistice. History might repeat itself now. Certainly there is lothing to be lost for the allies to agree to an armistice and discussion now, each side maintaining status quo in a military and naval sense until the issues were thoroughly examined.

It is not unlikely that an armistice once proclaimed lead to peace, because each government knows now that force will be used because it already has been used. The British and French would be making a serious mistake if they did not set forth their aims specifically and concretely and in such a manner as to provide a way out for Herr Hitler. To stop war now is not "to surrender" in ignoble fashion, as was suggested in the British parliamentary debate this week, because to surrender to a higher law than mankind's brutishness is never ignoble.
