. we've boon fighting for big ports
close to the lighting front
notably Antwerp- Along the
Rhine, where the next great bat
tle will take place, the Germans
have their supplies RIGHT AT
THEIR BACKS. 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. It has always been that
way in Europe and won't be
greatly different this tiine.i

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.
