All the more so because tho Russians are ominously silent. THE fighting at Aachen is lull ing a little at the moment. One Is tempted tp guess that the Ger mans have given up hope of sav ing the city. Wo're bombing Cologne heavily. The' nazls say we're going to hit nurd there soon. MANY Oregon communities are suffering from lack of ade quate banking facilities because the voters permit con tinuance of a law as obsolete and worthless as a Landon campaign button. Voters at the Nov. 7 election will have an opportunity to repeal that law and open the way for a sound and vigorous state banking system. The first measure on the ballot 300-301 is a proposed smendment "to provide alternative means for securing bank depositors." Passage would, in effect, remove the require ment that stockholders in state-chartered banks in Oregon be liable for double the amount ct their stock. Through an act of congress, double liability on national bank stock was removed in 1935, following the organiza tion of the Federal Deposit Insurance corporation which pro vides federal insurance for deposits up to $5,000. Only three states still retain the obsolete law. ' State banks organized prior to Nov. 5, 1912, are not now subject to double liability, but those chartered since that date are affected. Thus there is a decided inequality among the state banks. . Pouble liability was created as a means of protecting de positors. Since that function now is covered by federal deposit insurance, the double liability act serves only to keep cautious investors from purchasing stock in state-chartered banks. Their investments go into national banks from which congress has removed the liability. . This measure has previously been before Oregon voters but was rejected, partially becauso of suspicion of anything desired by financial interests and partly because' of sad recollections of losses suffered during the depression period. But continuation of this amendment upon our constitution serves, under present conditions, only to keep investors out ot the state banking field and to deprive many communities of needed state banks. A vote 300 X Yes, will, in our opinion, be a vote in the interest of progress and prosperity. THE British tuke Vonray, in Holland, thus STRENGTHEN ING tho right flank of their high Jy strategic NIJmegen-Arnhcm salient. The Germans assert (and 11 sounds reasonable) that the Brit ish have huge forces, including 1500 tanks, massed there and will touch off a big offensive just as , soon as they are assured of ample supply lines to their rear. ANTWERP is the supply port we want. II is RIGHT BEHIND our lines in Holland, and will give us practical equality Willi the Germans in the way of transport. A pocket of Germans still holds the south bank of tho Schelde, thus preventing us from using the Antwerp route. The Canadians are biting into this pocket and are reported to be making prog ress. SPEAKING of pockets, recent dispatches tell us that 100,000 Germans arc still pocketed In France at Dunkerque, Brest, Lorlent, St. Nazaire, etc. Eisen hower, you see, has borrowed MacArlhur's BY-PASSING stra tegy. . IS these words are written, the i silence from Hungary is prac tically total. The bailie of Bel grade still rages nn. Belgrade is on the Danube river and the great trans-Balkan railroad. Hence its importance. Don't overlook the tact that at best less than a month of good fighting weather Is left in Eu rope. That, in Itself, insures big events soon. GERMANY organizes a home guard of EVERYBODY from 1G to 60. In a decree broad cast FOR him (not read ierson nlly, Hitler says: "Relying on our own force, we will not only break the enemy will of destruc tion but we will throw him back again." In other words, the nals will light to the last German. An Opportunity For Sidney We have on previous occasions expressed our concern ovor the vice-presidential aspect of the current political cam paign. We feel this is a very important and serious matter. We sincerely hope that if President Roosevelt is reelected his physical condition will permit him to serve out his full four-year term, for we can picture dire conditions should the mantle of the presidency fall upon the bewildered senator from Missouri, Harry S. Truman, vice-presidential nominee of the Now Deal party. ' Having suffered the squabbling, bickering, quarrelling and jealousies of New Deal bureaucrats for 12 years, it is not hard to imagine what would happen should President Roose velt be taken from the political scene. Can't you visualize Mill scramble for power, if Ickes, Hopkins, Wallace and oilier of trie New Deal favorites tried to grab the reins ? The entire bureaucratic set-up, already torn with strife and jealousy, would be in a turmoil. The responsibility of administration would fall upon Truman, a protege of one of tho nation's most corrupt po litical machines; a man who owes his political advancement, including his nomination as vice-president, to the political bosses. Heading the sponsoring elements are Sidney Hillman and liarl Browder, both known to be aligned with the communist movement. They have behind them strong leftist organiza tions which would be politically equipped to immediately push aside the hair-pulling bureaucrats and take over the government. Truman, plainly bewildered by his sudden elevation, owing his all to the most corrupt political machines in the country, could be nothing but a stooge. It would not be necessary to "clear it with Sidney," for Sidney would be in power. You may be sure the possibility has not been overlooked by that astute.Lithuanian-born labor leader. damaged 905 Jap ships, shot down 1827 Jap planes and destroyed 1253 more on the ground. That's a lot of ships and planes. (T' HE kiss of TRAINED PI LOTS is probably hurting the Japs worse than the loss ot planes. Planes can lx- built fast er than good pilots can be train ed. I MAC ARTHUR Is getting so close to the Philippines that his FIGHTERS nof range all over Mindanao (southernmost is land i, shooting up .lap transport, breaking up Jap columns anil smacking Jap airftalds. T 0 UR own South, In our war be tween the states, FOUGHT TOO LONG. When Lee sunend- nearly ahvjyvs cied. he had literally no food, no issues don't ammunition, no men left. Fight ing too long wrecked the South for three-quarters of a century. The nazls are doing that to Germany. (Maybe It's best for the world of the future that they are.) WE'RE still smacking the Jap in the Pacific, Tokyo radio to (he contrary notwithstanding. Forrestal (navy secretary) says that In the past 41 months our Srd and 5h fleets have sunk ov HE home political front ccts holler and hotter. On both sides, noses are being bloodied, eyes being black micd. Tile speech es are getting tfciwn to the point of "sasslng eac'.i other back." All I;. :,-,;'! i jjooii sign rather than bad, indicating that our people np, beginning to rea lize the FUNDAMENTAL Impor tance of ftie issues involved in tills election. A polite campaign means that the amount to much and the public and tho candidates alike KNOW It The constitutional convention, where Hut future of America was charted fcy the founding fathers, was no lea party. Lincoln's 1SU0 campaign, where the long-smold ering -slavery issues burst finally Into flame, was hot and angry. THEHE Is some danger that in the nose punching, thumb chewing and ear-biting that will enliven the mnalndur ol the campaign too many voters may become confused and lose sight of the issue that COUNTS. To this writer, the BIG issue Is perfectly plain. II is TOO MUCH POWER held in the same set of hands TOO LONG.

And there's one thing those writers seem to agree on no matter w here they are st ationcd with our men... and that is that the men who have left their hornet and families to go away and fight this war don't want to come back and find that prohibition has been put over on them while they were away . . . tithtr nationally or locally.
