Stanton THERE has been much discussion recently by political writers and radio commentators concerning the compara tive radio personalities of President Roosevelt and Republi can Nominee Dewey. With all due credit to our favorite commentator,1 Fulton Lewis Jr., who saw fit to disparage Dewey's radio technique, while speaking from a studio in stead of before an audience, we feel that such discussion is a ridiculous interjection in what should be, but is not, a .seriously presented political campaign. Have we reached the point where we judge our presi dential candidates upon a basis of professional radio technique? We have seen leaders of swing and hillbilly bands elected to congress. We have seen campaigns conducted by croon ers. LUtt are we to base our decisions for important political posts upon professional qualities of radio performance? Must a candidate be the equal of a Lewis, a Kaletenborn, a God win, or a Carter as a radio speaker before he can be con sidered qualified for office? Bob Hope, or Fred Allen in Americans considering entertainment talent more important as a While House qualification It is undeniably true that able radio personality has had much to do with keeping him in office for 12 years. But those who can think back and remember the sparkle and fire of his radio voice in past campaigns, his mastery of striking metaphor and simile, his elegant alliteration, ' his precise enunciation, cannot but find weariness, and even a trace of petulance and querulous ness in The Voice today. There still is much of the Old jMa.sler remaining, but those it once was, miss the finesse of intonation and cadence, and find it labored a little fretful that there is a necessity for speech. But are we to judge the ability of President Roosevelt or Tom Dewey to serve in the chair of chief executive by the manner in which they pronounce their A's? Are we to say that one man is better than another in directing our domes tic affairs simply because his voice has more pleasant phonetism? We are faced with n crisis in governmental affairs. We have a war to win, a peace to make. We have domestic issues which transcend those of normal times. An impor tant decision rests in the hands of American voters. Yet, with these serious, vital matters before us, we argue the fine points of locution, vocalization and articulation, as if accentuation was as important an international policy to inanities. Our job as voters today is to say, to observe what they do rather than they say it. to be concerned by the technique with which Both major candidates have more than avernjv! ability in radio presentation. No one has trouble in under standing their words or meanings. They are presenting two widely divergent theories of governmental philosophies to the voters. They deserve to be judged by their records and by their platforms rather than by prolation. DAILY DEVOTIONS 1)H. CTIAHLKS A. EDWARDS St. Paul wrote: "Now faith is Hie substance of things hoped lor, the evidence of tilings not seen." Much has been written about faith. We find it throughout the entire Hihle. "Have failh in God." '.I have not found so great faith." Over and over we read of this, but little is said of God's failh in man. Yet where is thoie a more shin ing example of failh than the faith Christ showed in bis disciples w hen He chose those Plain men of the sea and town to he his disciples, am bassadors lo the world. An old legend tells of angels lean ing from the parallels of heaven In witness Christ's ascension after His thirty three heart breaking years on Hie earth As He stepped into the white blaze of Glory I hey asked him: Was it worth while? And who did vou leave In charge of Die Ki'ng duiu'. ;md Jesus answered simply "I left eleven men." Hul bow do Mm know lliev w ill nut fail? They w ill nut fail." lie replied. This is the greatest experssion of laith in mankind ever utieied. and the Christian church today, and down through Hie ages, is a tine demonstratinn of His laith in man.

LOUIS, Oct. 7 (API- Un less the St. Louis Cardinals snap out of it quick, the ragamuffin Browns are going to complete baseball's big 1944 surprise story by adding a first world champion ship to their first pennant vic tory. Heading into today's Fourth game of the neighborhood rival ry, the "rags to riches kids" are hitting a thin .170, fielding a wobbly .950 but leading the Red Birds in the all-important detail of two victories to one. Jack Kra mer was responsible for yester day's 6-2 American league tri umph. Stopping the Brownies appears to be largely a question of stop ping George McQuinn, the first sacker. He sticks out head and shoulders over the field op his .625 batting mark compiled on five hits, including two doubles and a game-winning homer, in eight at bats. McQuinn has driv en in four of the 10 runs his team has scored. If McQuinn was the big gun of the Browns' attack with three blows in yesterday's victors, Jack Kramer rated equal billing on his excellent exhibition of "clutch" pitching. The 26-year-old righthander, who drew a medical discharge from the navy seabees after six months service a year ago. was in hot water in the early and late innings, although he had one streak in mid-game when he re tired 10 Cards In succession.
