Transfusions are taken from the arm with a local anesthetic so there is no pain. , All men and women between the ages of 18 and 60 years may volunteer to donate blood, but those under 2 1 must have the signed consent of their parents or guardians.

I opposed the • first change in the Neutrality Act\ in 1939 because I felt; that, .it was another act of war contrary to our proclamation of neutrality. I opposed the Lease-Lend Act as •it passed the .House because I felt that it was another act of war. _ __________ “But, having committed the country, and the shooting hav ing begun, and we having par ticipated in the war, I can s:e nothing to do except to support toe carrying on of that war. There are two ways to get out of war once you get in, and that is the thing that most of.the mem bers of the House do not seem to realize. One, is to surrender and pay tribute and submit tcr alien” domination. The other is to go out and win, I have not the slightest doubt that when the people understand the situation we’ are in and that there is no way out except one of the two alternatives, they will choose to gQ^ooi go out and win. “ 1 have no sympathy with the President and his misrepresen tation of this Situation to the American people. I have no sympathy with the President and the manner in which he has tor 2 years since the war began, and since we took the first step in the war, encouraged the sabotage of our defense program by .catering to^labor racketeers. I have no sympathy-with the ef forts that those who surround him have made to get rid of our form \ of government and to destroy the private employment of our people and regiment la-, bor. “Unless the President quickly gets to the point where he is prepared to support the defense program th a t he has- established and tb support the' war effort and to end racketeering 'and the effort to change our form of government, the effectiveness of our: defense effort will not be more than 50 per cent of what it could be.

Our beloved country is tree and strong. Our moral and physical defenses against the forces of threatened aggression, are mounting daily in magnitude and effectiveness. In the interest of our own future, we are sending succor at increasing pace to those peoples, abroad who are bravely defending their homes and their precious liberties against annihilation. We have not lost out faith in the spiritual dignity of man, our proud belief in the right of all people to live out their lives ih freedom and with equal treatment. The love of d em o c rat/ still bums brightly in our hearts. We are grateful to the Father of us all tor the innumeiv able daily manifestations of His- beneficent mercy in affair? both public and private, for the bounties of the harvest, for opportunities to labor and to serve, and tor the continuance of those homely joys ahd satisfactions whioh enrich our teas. • . \ Let us ask the Divine blessing on our decision and deter- mination to protect our way of life against the forces of evil and slavery which seek in these days tb encompass us. On the day ap,pointed for this purpose, let us reflect at our homes or places of worship on the goodrrSSs of God and, in’ giving thanks, let us pray for a speedy end to strife and) ■ the establishment on earth of freedom, brotherhood, and justice for enduring time.
