Ratioiis-and Poland
Shoe rationing; started Sunday.
Only three pairs of shoes a year, to EVERY
ONE.
In Poland. Life rationing-. But NOT to
everyone. Only good, submissive Poles allowed
u live. And no Jews.
We jrripe because we've pot to luv sturdy
sr-iisime shoes to work in, instead of eny little
involous sandals to show off our pretty legs.
Polish youth don't gripe hcr-;iuse thoir parents
were of the wrong race. They don't gripe be
cause they don't know whether they'll he buried
alive tomorrow or sadistically tortured on Fri
day. They don't gripe because it won't do any
pood. They work instead. They form the un
derground, the illegal youth organization
"Tsukunft" operating to save Polish young peo
ple from the nazi monster which has already
massacred two million Jews, a Polish release
pointed out:
"Several years ago in a woodland near
Warsaw Jewish workers of Poland built a sani
toiiuiii for their weak ami ailing children.
Named Medem Sanatorium, the beautiful school
became famous thiuout European and Amer
ican educational circles as a model children's
H-hooI. Then Germany conquered Poland, and
a few months ago a band of nazis arrived at
the school and ordered the instructors and
mums to leave the children.
"They refused to do so. The 2"0 children
and entire teaching staff was murdered."
Approximately five million of ihcse people
Mill survive, hoping that the Tsukunft can help
them, working to make it help them. And they
have looked to America for help. They have
asked the United States young people at least
for a sympathetic, understanding symbol of
courage.
So Americans give it to them. Americans
gripe because they weren't warned that shoes
were going to be rationed before hand so they
could stock up on them.
And at the same time Polish youth have
holes burned in their feet so they won't need
any shoes. M. L. M.

From the sound of a letter received from
Cadet JAMES F. TOWNSEXD, Phi Psi last
'40, Cornhuskers have taken over West Point.
First news comes of BIFF JONES, former
Husker football coach and now graduate man
ager of athletics with the rank of Colonel. "He
is very popular with the cadets and with his
subordinates, lie and Mrs. Jones were fix
tures at the Army games last season."
Talking about the Army-Navy game which
Army lost, Jimmy said he lost a sweater in a
friendly little bet with former Phi Psi brother
HUGH WILK1NS. plebe at Annapolis. Since
parting with the sweater he found "out that
there will be no more sweaters at W. P. for
the duration, so asks that anyone wishing to
send him a sweater certainly may.
