JTHE FIRST RAILROAD to be built west of the Allegheny mountains, started in Sandusky in 1836. 2 OUR Last October the Sandusky Community Fund was revived after a period of two gears' inactivity. The people of Sandusky responded very generously and while the goal of $50,000 was not reached, 87 and three-quarters percent of the total was pledged. Complaint has often been made that seldom is anything heard of the Community Fund except when a drive is in progress. Those now in charge sought to do something about this and report that to date $28,966.44 has been paid, and distribution has been made to the eight participating welfare institutions in the following Amounts: Good Samaritan Hospital $4,468.74 Providence Hospital 4,468.74 $inde Memorial Hospital 1,072.50 Imerican Red Cross 1,966.25 Scouts 1,966.25 Jamp Fire Girls 1,430.00 Jalvation Army 1,072.50 Volunteers of America 1,072.50 The National Whirligig News Behind the News $17,517.48 Another distribution of approximately $8,000 is scheduled to be made on or about April 10.

The Community Fund means everything jb these participating agencies. It also tfieans much to all of us in that our giving dan be definitely allocated and duplication Eliminated, as well as the constant anno: nce we have experienced in the past irough numerous drives, some one of "Chich has nearly always been in progress, jjrior to the time that it was wisely decidet return to the Community Fund plan. Sandusky will do well to continue the Community Fund since it now has been well established, having a foundation on to continue the good work already lyell begun. We very definitely need a Community Fund, together with frequent reports as to what it is doing. THE SOLDIER DOESN'T STRIKE The soldier in the training camp, whether he be National Guardsman or "draftee," is rapidly getting fed up with reports of in the vital defense industries.

To tJae man in service, particularly the tee" who was called up, whether he liked It or not, and put into uniform, to drill, or cjo kitchen police, or fatigue or guard duty $21 a month and keep, it is downright -Revolting to hear that a steel mill which is ifijpposed to be making guns for him to use, idle. By entering the service, many of whom against their wills, these men have foresworn their right to strike or to complain about long hours and low pay. They may even have to give up their lives for their country. That the soldier in camp is watching and critically to see that the man "Who does not have to serve in the Army is doing his job as well as the soldier is expected to do his, is brought out clearly in an editorial in a recent issue of "Reveille," official newspaper of the troops in training Camp Shelby, Mississippi. "Here," says the paper, "is the key to of the most significant morale problems in the Army.

French soldiers in the recent war in France were unstrung by fears, warranted and unwarranted, about state of affairs at home. American soldier or selectee, looks with neither amusement nor indifference alt reports daily arriving from the great Manufacturing centers of the country regarding the strikes of civilian workers in wtal defense industries. "He finds it difficult to repress a wave exasperation and rage as he spends precious training weeks drilling with an antitank platoon that possesses no anti-tank jams, and reads at the same time that a mill may curtail supplies vital to the production of the kind of arms he needs."

The unusual term "anenry" comes from a Persian word meaning a messmcer" who. as representative; of the sovereign, uas authorized to requisition land cv maritime shipping. The power was exercised by the Greeks in the third cenrury.

and like so much Greek eventually was incorporated in the Roman code. It became a rule of international in the 17th century, ar.d it is well established and recognized in most treaties. Subject to eventual compensation, the confiscating nation declares that the are needed for rational defense or livelihood There Is no necessity of proving sabotage, as we are charging now. or of establishing any intent to use the property ngainst the nation which does the seizing. Although then a neutral, Italy took over tlie 34- four German merchantman under th's right during the World War.

and there was no protest from the Kalfer. Brazil gobbled up 42 German ships on the same basis in 1.017. Ths United States and Britain reqpisltlnnod tremendous Dutch and Norwegian tonnage under the "right of angary'' after 1917. It is an old hazard of the seas. ANGRY- Onr failure to resort to this easv and traditional method is explained by the now-famous pddress on the bust-up of International law.

Jackson announced to the world that the United States no longer Intended to abide by international treaties and agreements. Because nf the need to meet military fire with fire, and overall necessities of national defense, the lawyer and legal spokesnnn served notice that. Ilk" Hitler, we too would deli cards under the table--or at least keep a few nos up our sleeve. Henceforth that will be the guiding policy of the State and the White House In foreign affairs. In view of such an It, would be sillv to fall back on a 1700-year-old law to iustlfv our shin seizures.

FAITH-Confidential advices from London en- murage our State Department in the hope that Italy. Japan and the Balkans mnv defeat Hitler's bid for world or European domination.

Any foreign forecast these days is dangerous. But our scouts charged with keeping their eyes on those three fighting sectors have sent these qualified reports to Washington: '1) Italy will crack up economically, socially and militarily within eight months, and pro-British forces fthe king and the Pope) will dominate the country. (V Japan will decide to withhold aid from the Axis, especially in the sphere of the Philippines, Singapore and the Dutch East Indies, until Tokyo receives more assurance of a German victory. (3) Hitler may the Balkan nations now thwarting him, but it will engage men and material which he can 111 "ord to expend. Prospective United States aid cannot be discounted.

And all responsible heads of ths governments threatened have great faith in Uncle Sam's Industrial might when it is exerted to the utmost, as it will be late Ihls fall and next spring. Senators are muched concerned as to how their votes for or against aid-to- britain ana national defense may affect their political futures. The topic commands major interest in all cloakroom talk on Capitol Hill.

The man with the nvst virulent case of jitters is Henry Cabot Lodge of Massachusetts. Henrv was one of the sharpest critics of the Lease-Lend bill, bur in the end he switched and voted for it. He d'scovervT that Governor Leverett SallonstRll of his state was an enthusiastic advocate of the measure. So much so that the governor has ordered private Massachusetts motorists to turn out if they meet an army convoy. Governor Saltonstnil, an attractive political may run against 'Mr.

Lodge a year from next' fall. So may Congressman Wigglesworth, who founrht the Lease-Lend bill but went down the line for the $7,000,000,000 appropriation to implement it. Mr. Lodge and manv other Congressmen now are voting their personal defense as well as their noll- convictions, it is perhaps one of the penalties we must pay for having a republican form of government.

The Literary Guidepost By JOHN SELBY By JOHN SELBY 'THE UNITED STATES A NARRATIVE HISTORY." by John D. Hicks (Houghton-Mifflin; 2 This has been a week: of books dealing in one or another way with history, and it is well to end it with a word on a new and important history of this country. This is Dr. John D. Hicks' "Tlie United States: r.

narrative History." only the second volume of which actually is new. Dr. Hicks is pmtessor of history at tlie University cf Wisconsin. Among his courses have been one on the crgins of our country leading up to tlie United States from Reconstruction time to, as someone calls it, destruction time. Meaning today.

Both these courses have been popular with thousands of students, although Dr. Hicks has resigned the first of them to cnother teacher. It occured to him when he relinquished the first; course that it had as well be put into a book, since, as he explains, his students would not be. forced to to the same phrases in the classroom they read in their text. It made a fine book, one in which the perspective nece-ssarv to consideration of recent history was established firmly.

It was also a very readable book; Dr. Hicks of it as a narrative history, and it is just that. It happened that, thf first volume published in 3 ended where one of the author's coleague? and friends took over. Thh. was Professor Frederic L.

Paxoii. now of the University of California, and Dr. Paxon's well known book was his "Recent The two eminent historians felt that tlie two books complemented each other, and there the matter lay liom 1937 until this year. Now. with the encouragement c-f Dr.

Paxon. HicKs has the story clown to ciate in his own way. It stems to me a very good way. It is. briefly, a comrrrcimse between the historical method of tlie in which politics and military 'fairs overweightt add other matters, and the so- called modern method, in which economics and ml hlitory have the preference.

Fortunately Dr. Hick? also has managed to carry his story forward in chro- i odogical sequence trip through the years for each phase of it it might, al.o be added that the two vol- rmes look well, too. and consider this problem. Many of the defenders in the conquered countries of Europe were "softened" through the trick of planting fear and distrust in their and distrust of what goes back home. Tie-ups now in the vital defense industries mean deplorable delays in the turniir out of defense materials for this country as well as the other democracies to which we are obligated under the "lease-lend" bill to furnish munitions.

This Is Ohio Written for The Associated Press Valentine B. Horton. a young law student from Vermont, gave up the legal profession to become a pioneer Ohio coal operator. After visiting the Ohio country he enrried samples of the coal to Boston and succeeded in interesting his friend Samuel W. Pomeroy, later his father-in-law, in helping him organize a coal company.

The company went to great expense to prepare every thins noces. sary for mining and shipping coal. It soon had a fleet of 23 barges and a force of 200 men at work. Morton had married Clara Pomeroy in 1833 and in 1805 they moved to Nyesvllle which he soon renamed Pomeroy in honor of his father-in- law. Willard REGISTER BUREAU Bess Murray Mr.
