14, 1943 THE GOLDEN VALLEY A Weekly Published Every Thursday by The NEWS PUBLISHING CO. Fred A. Shipman, Editor Entered as Second Class matter at the Postoffiee at .Beach, North Dakota, October 7, 1936, under the Act of March 3, 1897. WHO'S GOTTA I I 'You've gotta print every word] of this exactly as it is written.[ No changes or deletion," said a[ bulky gentleman as he laid sixl sheets of propaganda on our deskI the other morning. i "Who's gotta do what?" we in-I q~red, glancing in his direction. I 'You, he roared. "It's your I patriotic duty, Besides, that's what l newspapers are for," I His tone of voice told us that argument was useless. So we got up on our hind legs. With all the puh~ "words we could muster we informed him ~that our P~ub~ic~ duty, like that of every other man, was to try ~}~ good citizen ana gl~-~country every ounce or ffevotion and support Within our being. We told him further that our patriotic duty did not include the free publication of three columns of purely advertising material, however cleverly written by a gov- ernmental agency or a private con- cern. Lastly, we reminded him that we were making an honest effort to mind strictly our own business, that we intended to run our own business and that we didn't have to do or print anything we didn't consider of public interest unless it came under the heading of paid advertisement and then only under certain rules and reservations. 'You'll be sorry for this" he roar- ed as he stcQnPed out. "You'll miss a good advertising contract after the war." " '* --~ He left us unworried. We need to live through this war as well e~ after it is over, The need for uhoes, clothing and food is ju~] as pressing around the editorial] hOUsehold now as it will be then.] BeSides, we were satisfied that the] he was with did not l~ve orI even contemplate advertisl~ con-[ tracts. For a decade it hs$ mooch- ed from easy newsapers. And, it Is not the only one to do so. The right kind of a newspaper floes not have to dO business 0n that kind of a basis. It is a business institution that puts and brings more into the community than it takes out. The right kind~ of a newspaper gives space andI Plenty of it to every worthwhile l enterprise working for the better.I raent of its community. But the right kind of 'a newspaper, like every other institution, insists upon! being the final judge in these mat- ters. It's editor is not likely to listen when some one steps in and says "You gotta."--Lemmon (S. D.) Leader. CUE BALL STRATEGY A book by Gen. Sadao Araki, former war minister and one of the leading exponents of modern thought in the Japanese army, lheds some light on the recent .development which sees Japanese ~ooPs abandoning untenable posi- tlo~ instead of dying to the last man to defend them. It is well known that Japanese SOldiers are thoroughlY indoctrin- ated with the army code which r~ach:es them never to retreat or ma'render. The Japanese army has ~l~Order for retreat. How is it, that the japanese abandoned and are reported not Gray ve retreated but to have fled explains it in his "The Spirit of the Imperial Jap- anese Army---.probably as ;well as any Japanese c~n explain one of ~IS national complexities. t ' ong some of other es,- writes General Arakl, it Is no disgrace to do one's best and be taken prisoner, or retreat in the face of the enemy. In the ll~lltary code of the Japanese, however, this situation is quite the reverse. One should never retreat or su~ender to the enemy Under any circumstances whatso- ever.- This seems definite and inclusive enough, but, like almost e ve, ry- thing the Japanese do, there s a Catch in it. Here's the catch: "~ven when retreat is necessa~ for pur p~_u of strategy," says ~ene~al Arakl, "commanding offi- cers should tell their men that they are to 'advance' to a certain useI~hll for strategic p~',poses. Never -the word ret~at on the battle- held2 ~t solves the mystey. The JaDar~se do not retreat, they ad- vance ~the 5AVE IT .~rIE GOLDEN VALLEY NEWS THOSE WHO'LL NEED IT applying reverse English to the cue ball, they'll apply Japanese. Peoples of the Allied nations are unperturbed about how much ad- vancing the Japanese do---as long as it's in reverse. CENTENARIANS EAT L.ESS This had better not be a long war, as Hitler once suggested, be- cause, according to a news dispatch from Stockholm, the Germans have called up men from 50 to 60 years old for military service. The Oct- man press announced that all men born in the period from ~4 to 1893 must report to theJ~'district police stations for e~stinent dur- ing this mon~. "as Hitler must find replacements for Italian units statione0 m the Balkans and in the Allies advance into the ~uropean fortress, it may be neces- 'sary for Hitler to call up older men, say from 80 to 90. One would think that some Washington official would warn the American people against com- placency, against resting on their oars, just because Germany is tak- ing older men. Activity on the battlefield might lengthen as well as shorten the lives of some of these German soldiers. Britannica points out that func- tional activity," mental and bodily, comparable steadiness of hand,' when cut off by the plague at the age of. 99." Titian porbably would have been a formidable adversary with a sub-machlne gun clutched in his incomparably steady hands. ,.The same retention of produc- tivity was seen in Voltaire, IAttre, Anatole France, Goethe, Von Ranke have been small eaters.' St~ll, there's no room for com- placency. ...... V ~'ORLD SERIES BASEBALL When a baseball team becomes the ~hampion of the two major leagu,-s through the world series games, it becomes the unquestion- ed champion of the world. If any foreign team had ever challenged cs~ch a champion team, its chances winning would have been prac- tically nothing. The American people love ba~e- ball keenly, and they may wonder why foreign nations never were so fond of it. In Canada it has been very popular, but they are so close to us that they seem almost a part of our country. Baseball has been popular in Japan, whose people have such opposite ideas from ours. If they had paid more attention to this game, and less attention to war- making, they would be in far bet- ter shape today. So the world plays an important part in post- poning the advent of old age, and are throwing everything they have at the Germans and it is now there is more danger of rusting _ ~ . -n out It adds that ouvious that the ~ermans nave out than wearl g - e of man di n' ]suffered a catastrophic defeat on "the advance~ ag Y g ~-~t ....

Signed MINNIE E SMITH, County Auditor, Golden Valley County, North Dakota. _ From where I , oo Dan Miles allows he's swim- ming right in style these days. Dan's always made a point of finishing up whatever food was put before him. "Don't make sense to waste food jest to be stylish," he says. Now out comes an etiquette authority who says it's wartime fashion to take only what you're going to eat--and finish it up clean--because "Food Fights for Freedom." As Doc Mitchell says, "Most folks eat too much anyway. Man and boy, I've watched this town for years, and 75% of us dig our own graves with our teeth." From where I sit, this new style in eating may lead to mod- eration, and moderation has never hurt anybody. In fact, you find moderation and tolerance go hand in hand ... whether it's what you eat or what you think .... Or whether one man prefers a moderate glass of beer when you yourself would rather have a soda.
