Thirty thousand young Ameri-
can Jews in the armed forces
have thus far decided to become
members of the Jewish War Vet-
erans of the U. S.
Thirty thousand—that's a siz-
able hunk of the nearly four
hundred thousand Jews now under
arms in the United States service.
' Figures like that mean some-
thing. They mean that there is a
demand on the part of the sold-
iers for a share in an organ-
ization which they feel they can
use to express their will, after
the war is won.
Make no mistake about it. The
young soldiers and sailors and
flyers who are going to be the
veterans of this war, are going
to have a will, and they are go-
ing to express it.
The men in our armed forces
today are not youngsters who
had a yen for battle. They are
ordinary men like you and me,
men who formed a large propor-
tion of our civilian population,
men who had jobs and careers,
men who wanted just as much
as you did to go on quietly
about their business, to marry,
to raise families, to move out
to the suburbs, to dig gardens
on Sunday afternoon.
They left all that because there
was a job to be done for Amer-
ica. Because they were men, and
because they were Americans,
they had to do that job. Just as
they knew what their civilian job
was meant to accomplish, they
know what their military job
is meant to do. They know that
its primary aim is to keep Amer-
ica a democracy, to keep Amer-
ica true to the principles laid
down by the founding fathers,
to keep America a country of
liberty and justice for all, re-
gardless of race, creed or color.
They are aware that this is

not going to happen all by it-
self. After this war is won, our
soldiers, returning to civilian life,
are going to be a different sort
of civilian—civilians conscious of
the price of liberty and justice.
And as members of veterans' or-
ganizations, they will have a voice
in the method of conserving the
rights for which they bled.
They will have a special solid-
arity. Men who have lived and
risked their lives together for
the same ideas, have learned
that patriotism is proved in blood
and not in cutting down to one
cup of coffee a day.
And other Americans will get
to understand the feelings of
veterans even when they see them
occasionally carried away by
their zeal.
Review the past few years and
you will realize that the veter-
ans' organizations have proved
it bluwark of American patriot-
ism. The American Legion, Vet-
erans of Foreign Wars, Disabled
American Veterans and the Jew-
ish War Veterans have done im-
portant work in exposing pro-
Nazi organizations in America,
they have taken a major part in
anti-Nazi activity and produced
a fine and original batch of re-
search material to aid in the
fight on the educational front.
Men like Paul McNutt, Hanford
MacNider, former Assistant Sec-
retary of War and now back in
active service, and many others
of their kind, have held high
place in veterans' organizations
and are now holding even high
er places in the national war
effort. Whatever veterans and
non-veterans can do to stimu-
late the men in the forces to
join American organizations, is
a service to the future stability
of American ideals.

WAR BONDS
Ships of the Destroyer type corn
prise the bulk of our fighting ships
in the American Navy. Their aver-
age displacement is about 1800 tons,
and they are fast, powerful, and
hard hitting. They have been par-
ticularly effective in convoy duty and
gave a good account of themselves
in the Coral Sea engagement. They
cost approximately $3,600,000 each.
