Uncle Sam Safe
guards Greenland
r
(Philadelphia Record)
Establishment of a U. S. air
base in Greenland, through nego
tiation with the Danish Govern
ment, is a logical extension of our
policy of safeguarding the West
ern Hemisphere.
Remembering that Gauleiter
Quisling of Norway claimed
Gre nland as ‘“Norwegian," U. S.
support of Danish possession
should end any future argument
on the one hand, and forestall
any program which Hitle’- may
have for establishing an air base
there for future attacks on the
United States.
The Pr sident's announcement
of the air base agreement supple
mints considerable previous act
ivity by our forces in Greenland.
In May, 1940.we rushed a consul
there, to look after our interests
as a result of Dani-h ccrquBst by
Hitler. Not long afterward th?
Coast Guard fleet took over pat
rol of the island—and the Coast
Guard cutters sent there were
close cousins to light cruisers.
Economically* Greenland is im
portent l it pcss ss?s the
world's onl3*6r;»V.ite mine.'-cryo
lite bB;ng a%'ul in dissolving
bauxite, bairn essentii.l in produc
tion of aluminum. How much
cryolite Hitler has been getting
from Greenland we do not know,
but it should be non at all, from
now on.
The new arrangement;, how
ever. are chiefly important in giv
ing the United States one more
air base in the mighty chain
which now extends southward
via Newfoundland. B rmuda and
Jamaica to Trinidad, which is
just off Venezuela. Whatever
Hitler's plans or hopes, this is
one stepping stone in our direc
tion which will not be his for
the grabbing.
They Don't
All Hate
(Cleveland Plain Dealer)
A heart-warming demonstra
tion of Mussolini’s failure to
make all Italians hate E-gland is
contained on an almost unnotic
ed little news item from the east
African front.
Before fie ing from Addis Ab
aba with his troops, the Duke of
Aosta, Italian viceroy of Ethiopia
left a note for the victorious Brit
ish. It said:
“His Royal Highness, the Duke
of Aosta, wishes to express his
appreciation of the initiative
tak n by Gen. Wavell and Gen.
Cunningham regarding the pro
tection of the women and child
ren of Addis Ababa, thereby
demonstrating that strong bonds
of humanity and race still exist
between our nations.”
It is significant to note that
the Duke of Aosta is a cousin of
King Victor Emanuel of Italy.

NEW YORK. April — Former
employes of the New York Stock
Exchange have joined the army
William McChcsney Martin Jr.,
"4, who resigned as exchange
president when th army called,
:m4 William M’trinko, 23. who
quit his job as exchange page boy
i when his number came up.
Martin’s salary was $48,000 a
voir and Metrinko’s was $16 a
week, but both started work for
Uncle Sam at $21 a month.
Martin said he was “resigned
•o b in it (the army) for the
duration" and expressed the be
lief that the United States would
enter the war, although he dis
claimed any information except
what he has read in the n:ws
pppers.
The only comment from Met
i ko. when he heard Martin was
in t'm same induction class was:
I “Gee.”
Metrinko, after a little rnedi
iati n, opined that there was “no
fu'u ’ in Wall Street."
About the same time, Martin
was saying to newsmen that "the
future of Wall Street is as bright
as any other place in the coun
try." And adding that “if th:
country is going to survive, the
stock exchange will, too.”
Martin said he believed the
c untry wras going to have “very
hard times," but added that “I
: ink ii is going to do us some
good. The only thing for people
to do is to get togeth r and be
as constructvie as they can.”
