recent republican leadership.
If Wlllkie (unquestionably able
and dynamic) know where ihe
was going In 1040, he lacked the

' his followers (of whom this
writer was one) there was always
a disturbing feeling ,of Confusion
' rs to objectives.
. Landpn liad NO IDEA where
Ae was going. He Just wanted to
go back SOMEWHERE and make
a new start. i
. Dewey knows what he's after.
JSTENING to the speech ui ac-
L ccptance (In which Dewey re
veals himself) and then reading
the qpnvention platform, this
writer gained the impression that
the platform .Is an acceptable
statement of Dewey's principles.
That is as It should be. A candi
date runnnlg on a platform that
means NOTHING to him is like
a man trying to ride two horses
going ln different directions.
The result is certain to be. a
humiliating fall.
THE platform ;has a liberal, tol
erant and 'sincere tone. Its
attitude toward New Deal experi
mental legislation is to keep the
good, discard the bad and MAKE
IT WORK.
It sounds as if the men who
wrote it MEANT IT. It promises
no rabbits pulled out of hats.
WINNING the fight that Dewey
and the platform makers
have outlined will be no easy Job.
Here in this country, wcVe been
taught too long this cynical politi
cal creed: "Where and how DO
I GET MINE?"
This Is the question we must
face and answer in this cam
paign: "What can I do to SAVE
MY CONTRil?"
It's the old buttle of patriotism
vs. th,e'ilcshpots.
IN the Pacific, we're slowly (and
bloodily) winning the Infantry

ports tersely: "The attacks were
unsuccessful."
At the same time, one of our
navy task forces BOMBARDS
one of the islands of the
KURILES. We're covering a lot
of territory.

SO, YOU'RE OUT OF DEBT

ing the mortgage on the, home or 'farm.1 ,Ypu feel :mighty

But wait a minute! If you
minor children you are in debt to the amount of $6,044.44,
Do you have the money? Probably not. '
Every man, woman and
$1,511.36. That is his or her share of the national debt.
Cy the time the war is over the per capita debt will be much
higher. In the year 1943, alone, we spent more .money
than in the first 150 years of the life of our nation. In
the 12 years of the New Deal administration we have in
curred a debt equal to twice
all 'taxable property in the
home or a farm, your share of the national debt is double
the assessed valuation of that piece of property.
The above figures are furnished by Senator Harry Byrd
pf Virginia, the spokesman for the "anti-pump primers?
as quoted by Samuel 15. Pqttingill for his column, "Inside
Your Congress." ' , ' ' ' ' J
Let's compare these with some local figures. . j
The average person in Roseburg had a buying incoifli
of $119,1 during 1943, according to a survey just rcIepMd
by .the research department of the Oregon Mutual Life
Insurance cpmpany. - !
Jn pther words, ypur share of ,the public debt is 37 per
cent more than you spent last year for food, clothing, drugs,
furniture, general merchandise, chewing gum, ice cream
cones, .motion picture shows, etc. Yet your buying income,
if you live in Roseburg or vicinity, is eight per cent greater
than the national per capita
Lstimating Rosqburg's population at 7,000 persons, our
aggregate share in. the national debt would be $10,579,520.
uui- iuuu retail saies lor iyas, according to the insurance
company's research .department, were $9,805,000. Thus it
would take more money than passed through all of our
rotai! outlets in one entire year to pay off our proportion
or what we eventually must
gon ranked sixth highest in
per' capita. ' -
It is smaU comfort'to know
most people, when it comes
burden ot taxes that are ahead
We hear New Deal economists say, "So what? Its a debt
we owe ourselves."
Certainly it's a debt we owe ourselves, but it is a debt
that must be paid. If it is
ment we have made life insurance, social security, stocks,
bonds and what have you.
Yes, it is a debt which must be paid, and with interest.
And right there is another interesting comparison, for
it will take around a quarter of a million dollars this vear
just to pay Roseburg's share
debt.
So, you're out of debt? That's what you think!

It is announced that we now
