Ours have been relatively distant. While thus handlcapcd, we couldn't 'a.fft'rci to' pjovoke the ALL-OUT battle that will deter mine whether the war is to end soon or Is to last longofperhaps Into next year. We had to get ap proximate equality of supply service, which is what we have been doing in Southwestern Hol land. In the Pacific,' we're fighting at VAST DISTANCES from home. We've been fighting a long lime. We've used up Immense quantities of supplies. Before wc can push on into China, or on INTO JAPAN, or even all over the Philippines, we've got to get more supplies up to the fighting fronts. That is wliiit Admiral Milsehrr Is telling us. SO far, we have been doing the bulk of the fighting in the Pa cific and the British (from their India bases) relatively little. Now would be a good time for the British to swing into action In a big way. Maybe they're getting ready to. Russian tanks are buttering at the suburbs of Pest. (Yester day they were reported 23 miles uway; this gives an idea of the tipped of their advance.) ; The Germans and the Hun garians who are fighting on their side have fallen back Into the city itself and are lighting behind defenses that have been erected during the past few weeks. Moscow dispatches indi cate that the fall of Pest to the Russians Is imminent. . The Russians say there is wiltl disorder In Buda, Willi the roads to Vienna jammed with fugitives. I BUDAPEST ID ci i composite city, made up of Uutia on the western bank of the Danube and Pest on the eastern bank. Buda was fprmeiiy In Austria. Pest In Hungary. When Austria and Hungary were joined under the Hapsburgs, the capital city became Budapest.) NEARLY 2,000 U. S. warpianes are still gunning for Cerman oil plants. The Germans are light ing us off fiercely with what is left of their air force, indicating their desperate need of oil. THE Japs are fighting with re newed determination on I.eyle, indicating THEIR desperate need to hold the Philippines whose pos session by us will CLOSE the South China sea. THE Germans have cleared EN TIRELY out of Greece, and Hpparently are fleeing Into south ern Yugoslavia and Albania. Maybe the Russians had to let the British Into Yugoslavia to licad these German off. ' (We mustn't permit ourselves o forget that from here on out a Europe a lot of International politics will be mixed up with the fighting.

Stanton THE feet of millions of men and women are marching to the polls throughout every corner of this land today. In imagination we can .hear those feet keeping time with other millions of marching feet feet that are leaving imprints on foreign soil; feet that in their relentless forward march strike terror into the hearts of tyrants who dreamed of world conquests. The impressive thing about this election is that it is so normal. "Every voter must have thought that somehow it would be different this year," says James Thrasher, our Washing ton observer. "Grave tasks lay ahead, serious issues were involved, many lives were already lost in this war and many more were at st&ke. Surely these things would lend the campaign the dignity that it demanded. But they didn't, and probably because no one, not even the professional poli ticians, realized quite how strongly the traditional manner ot electioneering has fastened itself upon us." It is a tribute to the strength of America that this election campaign has been conducted on the same pattern as those which have preceded it. This very fact is evidence of the deeply ingrained spirit of democracy, a spirit of individual liberty and freedom, upon the preservation of which the tuture of this great nation rests. M. Chanis of Columbus, Ohio, in a little campaign booklet entitled Would You Like to Be President, says: The Zaporozsian Cossacks, who lived on the Islands of the lower reaches of the river Dnieper, In Southern Russia, used to elect their commander-in-chief by popular vote. They then had a custom, that the day before his Installation In office, the new chief had to stand in a traditional spot In the publio square of the principal settlement, and any and all Cossacks could come and throw mud at him. This was the Cossacks' idea of true democracy. The campaign, which is being concluded by the march of voters to the polls today, has had its usual quota of "mud slinging." It has been true to the form which we, as a unique people, have adopted as our own peculiar method of electing our candidates for high office. Many of us may decry the extravagant nonsense that en ters into our elections, but it has its better points. Certainly no candidate can enter into a high office in thi.- land, after undergoing the campaign nightmare, without realization that the poople of this country are still sovereign. Voters may be gullible, disinterested, ignorant, honest, stu dious, mlormed, patriotic or subversive, according to their owicpndition or inclination, but any candidate well know? that it is the hands of those voters, marking an X upon a secret ballot, or tabulating opinions upon a machine, which decide his political future. This fact also is known to -the voter, who, in addition to the power of a free ballot revels in his right to speak his mind concerning the candidate When an officer knows his fate rests with the voters, he will be moue anxious to please and will be less arrogant and dicta torial than if he could not be made a target for their criticism. But while our campaign has been in progress, as Thrasher so neatly says: "factory chimneys have kept on smoking as Roosevelt and Dewoy supporters, side by side, have com bined to turn out the tools of war. Meanwhile Germany has been entered and the Philippines have been invaded, and men have died in battle, and victory has come closer." Our feet, marching to war or marching to polling places, still dominate the parade for liberty, freedom and a higher plane of civilization. Those who would trv to halt this pa-1 fade must and will be trampled into dust. We as Americans can take both war and elections in stride. We did not even change our pace. Tomorrow our decision probably will be known. Our differences will be laid aside. Shoulder to shoulder wo will march on, purposefully, proudly. Some of us, like the little boy eating spinach, may not like the taste, but nevertheless we eat. Our grumbling forgot ten, we will rally around the one selected as our chief execu tive, determined that the purposes to which this nation has been dedicated shall be fulfilled. For such is democracy. y J, I.
