Marion Leslie Hoajr, Associate Editor Entered at the Post Office at sayvilie fridat ; may io , 1940 The long dreaded tidin gs of German invasion of Holland and Belgium be- came grim , reality in the \ ea rly morn- ing, ho ur s today and hundreds of our own citizens are filled -with forebodings of disaster to Joved relatives and . friends living in . the low countries. / Hundreds of German planes In sys- tematicall y cor-qridnated attack are reported to be dropping incendiary bombs , destro ying airdrom es and land- ing fields ' in Holland , Belg ium and Luxemburg and at several points along the coast of England. German troops , landed from planes. and in many cases by para chutes , have achieved considerable success. Parts of Holland have been flooded by the Dutch government. Italian bulletins report Mussolini as holding himself aloof in this crisis and promising for the present to do his best to maintain peace in the Mediter- ranean. For Efficiency and Good Government , By the inexorable hand of death and a Democratic governor the late County Treasurer John G. \ Peck , a lifelong Re- publican has been succeeded by Joseph A. Kirk one of our Ro ' nkonkoma neigh- bors. The governor , had the power and at the behest of the new organiza- tion In this county promptly named a Democrat to -fil l the vacanc y until afte r t he next election, when a Republican Coun ty Treasurer ' will no doubt be chosen. - - / In the , n atural course - of events s Mr. Kirk would be- expected 40 name -es his deputy some desetvirW Democrat favorecf byr Ws\6rg8n&pt fe i ~fbr ttaat Jo b. That; ls . ;*lje ., way to which political organizations function. ' tP . woul d mean that Pau) v \ . Reutershan , of East Hampton, who for some years has served with marked fidelity and effi- ciency while County Treasurer Peck was sufferi ng ' , from a fata l illness would be out of a job for-a> few months at least. , It. would Inevitably mean also more or less of chaos in an Important county office while two inexperienced men , unfamiliar with the law and with cus tomary office proced ure were learn- ing the ropes. Notice was therefor e politely served upon County Treasurer Kirk that Just in case he did remove the present dep- u ty to make room for a new man of the opposite politica l affiliation the Board of Supervisors , which Is Repub- lican nine to one , would probably abol- ish the office of Deputy County Treas- urer. If that seems to be a bit high handed it should be remembered that the vote in this county is preponder- antly Republican nnd that the will of the majority of the voter s is thus be- ing sustained. - W hat Is far more im- portant , the intricate business of the County Treasurer ' s office will be in accus tomed hands. Tlie Democratic organiz ation decided to listen to reason. Dras tic steps were no t necessary and an amicable settle- ment o f the situation was arrived at. The most ridiculous thing going on In this country today Is the proceed- ings of the National Labo r Relations Board against Henry Ford. Henry Ford Is ' the last man that the group should a ttack. He has paid better wa ges and done more for labor than an y ether Industrialist. He has never ha d to be forced to increase wages or do the tilings he hoi done for the wel- fare of his fpen. He Is now being, made tho victim of a silly law of which this coun try should be ashamed. The storm ra ised In the Senate over the census questions has proven a tempest In a teapot. Most people have dltcovered that no questions were ' ask- ed In the census that were In the least annoyin g or embarrassing. They were agreeably sur prised when the enumer- ator came. They had been led to be- lieve that because a Senator saw fit to waite several da ys of tlie United States S enste ' s valuable tune discuss ing them , the questions must be trul y terrifying .

When he a rr ived the next morning and managed to drag the horse out of his truck nnd prop him on nil fours , the man asked him to bring the animal onto the porch. Once on the porch , the farmer was nsked to bring him into the door nnd ease him up the stair - ense. Finally the buyer \urged him to drag the nag into the bathroom and into the bat htub, The puzzled far mer carried out Instructions to the letter , whereupon the purchaser asked him to shoot the horse through the head as he had originally intended. What' s the.Big Idea? The astonished farmer again did as instructed, but as, he was about to lenvc , he turned to the buyer and snld , \I don 't mind bringing the hors e into the bathroo m.

Y„ to at tend the annual Rotary conven- tion was an outstandin g feature yes- terday noon of Uio weekly luncheon - meeting of the SayviUe Rotary Club at the Kensin gton Hotel. Mark' s deal- ings with an officer of tho law were bared by several members of tho local club who attended tho convention with him. Stopped somewhere en route to Sar- atoga by a nulformed officer, - the a forementioned Mr. Crosi er: • ( 1) Worried lest he get a ticket. 12) Became relieved upon recogniz- in g the cop as one whose acquaintance he made at Wosthnm plon Bench two years ago after the hurricane. ( 31 Persuaded the officer to forgot the ticket , and then suggested that he halt the party ' s second car , owned by President Bob Thornhlll of the local clu b , who was some m iles to the roar. (4) Became pleased with himself up- on arriving nt Sarato ga to find that his plan hud worked to perfection , The Thornhlll machine was duly waved to the side of the road by the same cop, the club president was properly chas- tised for driving fast and then handed a note from the dastardl y Crosier fel- low, Tlie note said: \ Itobert Thorn- hlll . , .you ' re dr iving too damn fast. \ Activities of the entire group, the members of which acted good, bad and Indifferent during thei r two days ' trip, were deiarlbtt fV in considerable detail, su pplemented by pictorial proof , by in- dividual IlotoHowi.

Dewey • in his Wichita , Kansas , speech , delivered at Friends University, ' denounced the system of '' power politics , \ which \has been the curse o f the world for many centuries \ , an d expressedt ' the belief that \ wars are partly the result and partly the cause of a false conception of the relative importance of the state and the indi- vidual. '* \The United States , \ he added , \is one o f the few areas of the world Where it Is still possible to maintain a political system predicated upon the integrity of the individual as the true unit of value. \ Mr . Dewey ' s address , which was non- political , dealt with the proper rela- tionship between the individual and go vernment. He pointed out that per- haps the principal characteristic of the Quaker philosophy is insistence upon the integrity of the individual , and asserted that \the strength of govern- ment is the strength of the individual men a nd women , who establish and maintain that government. \ H e found that In too many countries today the creed is proclaimed that the individual is unimpor tant , but reverence is paid to na tion , race and class. \In one nation , \ Mr. Dewey declared, \it is a certain class, whose dominance throughout the world is-the grea t ob- jective. In another it is a wholly myth- ical conception of ra ce which must be raised to supremacy in the world. In a third it is an historical grandeur that must be resuscitated at the cost of no matter what aggression. \The harvests of these false philo- sophies are now being reaped by the people i n irreligion , war and the de- struction of the dignity and happiness of the individual. Such, are the in- evitable consequences of elevating race , state , nation or government to the position of supreme value. \ Such a creed , according to the speak- er , is bound to lead to war. He said that \there can be no peace when any nation claims supremacy over neigh- boring peoples^—not as long as there are free men left to resist its aggres- sions. \ In war , he asserted , the i n- dividual becomes unimportant. \Th e nation must be deified. \ Mr . Dewey explained to his audience that the government must recognize its obligation to care for those in need , but that when it renders aid , a gove rn- ment acts as the agent of the people. He added that \ once relations of a government to its people become such that the people are subservient , we have laid? the ifoundatlq 6^or > .totalU tarianism . \ '$& 'Y \ ~ ' *f \Without integrity airtong nations , ' he conc luded, \ we can have no peace Without integrity in government we can have no liberty. Without integrity in the business world we can have no prosperity. \ The fact that the occupation of Norway by German troops was ac- complished quickly by the fact that German agents had worked for months in Norway paving the way for the German army by boring from within should suggest to everyone , the import- ance of the work being done by the Dies committee. Dies states that there are a hundred organizations in this country that' do not believe in this form of government and would use their knowledge against it in the event of war. Dies believes that they should be c leaned out. So say we all. The ex-Kaiser , who long proclaimed to the doctrlno of German might , has enjoyed peaceful asylum at Doom in Holland for the past 20 years , should be having an uncomfortable day. \They who live by the sword shall die by the sword. \ If tho aged former German Kaiser and his entourage arc now put to the sword as the Germans did to old and helpless people In Poland, there can be no complaint and little regre t in any quarter. Our old friend W. B, Trainer , Town Clerk of the town of Huntington , ap- pears to have a cause of action against The Lonu Islander in his hom e town.

Win in '40?\ is under way in connection, with the United Republican Finance Com- mittee ' s pre-convention drive for funds , Robert B. Murray, Jr., secretary of the organi zation , announced yesterday. Mr. Murra y also made public the appointments of a number of chair- men of the committe e ' s volunteer divisions and pointed out that the women ' s division held its first organizing lunch- eon meeting on Monday at the Hotel Roosevelt with Miss Marion E. Martin , assistant chairman of the Republican National Committee, and F. Trubee Davison , chairman of the United Re- publican Finance Committee , as chief speakers. Explaining the purpose of the cam- paign brochure , Mr. Murra y said: Purpose of Brochure \There is hear tening evidence of a Republican trend in the fact that less than half of tlie 2 .5 00.000 votes cast in recent State prim aries went to Pres- ident Roosevelt. \It is also Inte resting to ' note that a cross-section of public opinion shows that approximate ly 60 per cent ol voters want the next administ ration to modify or otherw ise change the New Deal. \The swing is manifestly clear and is one very import ant reason why every member of the Republican party should take cognizance of our broadening op- portunity and do everything humanly possible to assure victor y in November. \ summarizin g the brochure . Mr. Mur- ray declared it listed the conclusions of the nation-wide Gallup Poll of A pril 21st. 1940 . showing that , if th e election for Presi dent had been held on tha t date , a shift of one per cent of the vote in New York and Minne- sota would have retur ned the Repub- licans as winners. Conditioned to Win \Let us fully real ize. \ Mr. Murray said , \th at the Republican party is conditioned to win in 1940 and, once realizing the extent ' of our present op- portunities , let us do something con- crete about puttin g our broad plan and organization into action. \Contributing now is the only method of assuring a well-organized and ef- fective campai gn . Adequate prepara- tion work to 'be done from now unt il election must be finan ced before the convention. We shall never fashion a winning model unless we forge and te mper our metal now.
