Jhought occurs:
"Uncle Joe wouldn't be Just try.
Jng to GET RID OF THE ATOM
BOMB FIRST, would he?
ONE trouble with this propaganda-ridden
world Is that we
can't take things for granted.
There Is the case of the U. S.
Army sergeant (stationed at the
American embassy In Moscow)
Who seems to have gono Russian
In a big way. He Is alleged to
have written a letter to the mayor
Of Moscow In which he says:
"Living in the United States,
3 did not think there existed a
yystem of government such as
ixlsts here in the Soviet Union,
In which the common man is
looked after and which is directed
ioward constant Improvement of
Jhe mode of life and the culture
f the people."
Z He wrote the letter, ho explains,
'as a protest against the antl
'Soviet policies of the capitalists
who at present rule America."
!The Moscow radio naturally took
It up in a big way and blasted It
'gleefully all over the place,
i'.
jfUR State Department .did a
V Investigating. As a result
of its inquiries, It announces In
.Washington that the sergeant had
.been "Beduced and exploited by an
experienced Soviet woman agent."
I It identifies the agent as Mrs.
lallna Dunaeva Blconlsh, and
iidds that she is the wife- of an
other American sergeant and that
ier wifely conduct has been such
That her husband Is instituting
reparation proceedings.
" A couple of former Moscow
buddies of the sergeant 'who
vrote the letter report in Wash
ington that the boy (he Is 21) has
been made a victim of a standard
;Soviet practice of "using fascin
ating women to entice and lead
astray impressionable Americans
stationed at our embassy In Mos
;cow." THIS business of statecraft, you
see, is quite a business. It stops
nt nothing in the pinches.
This is nn important point to
'remember about U:
When too much power is held
In too few hands too long, there
'js practically nothing that those
nvho hold the power won't do to
.KEEP IT. The great trouble with
Russia is that the power of life
jlind death over 1K0 million Rus
sians Is held In the hands of a
-FEW MEN in Moscow.
; That is basically why it is so
-hard for us to get along with
1 Russia. If it were merely a case
,'of getting along with the Rus
sian PEOPLE, it would be simple
"and easy.

By CHARLES V. STANTON
During the past week we have endeavored through this
column to present brief discussions of principal candidates
seeking nominations at Friday's primary election. Space has
not permitted listing of each and every candidate, nor more
than the highlights pertaining to those mentioned. It would
not have been difficult to utilize a full column for fuller
discussion of each candidate.
Our purpose, as previously explained, was not to influence
any voter in the way he should vote, but to promote study
of the candidates through presentation of information from
which voters might better prepare themselves to mark their
ballots. We hope we have influenced some voters to vote. We
care not how they vote, except that they exercise their right
of franchise honestly and intelligently.
We have our own favorites in the election. Perhaps in
some cases we did not disguise our personal feelings, letting
our enthusiasm give one candidate a better "break" than
another. But it was not our purpose to be entirely imper
sonal, although, on the other hand, we endeavored to give
sufficient information concerning every candidate that
the voter might be able to draw his own conclusions as to
preference.
We ask no one to share our enthusiasm for any candidate.
W,e do ask, however, that every voter go to the polls fully
informed regarding tho candidates and the issues they rep
resent. The affairs of government should weigh heavily upon
every adult mind. These are stirring and critical times.
Policies established this year may materially affect our
future, both nationally and locally. The result of our presi
dential election will affect the whole world, for our inter
national relations will depend, in part, upon the executive
chosen.
Determination of the cooperative contract policy of sus
tained yield forest management is involved in election of
congressmen, state officers who will serve on the board of
control, and down to the election of commissioners to serve
on the county court. The cut-and-get-out practice of the
forest industry, or a regulated timber cut on perpetual basis,
is at issue, involving the economy of our timber-supported
communities for many years to come. The gubernatorial
race also involves such issues as liberalization of. liquor and
gambling laws, management of state-owned lands, taxation
procedure and handling of surplus income tax funds.
Voters who normally consider primary elections a waste
of time should ponder the fact that vital policies are depend
ent upon this year's election and that the nominating elec
tion is just as important as the general election.
The relatively small number of voters turning out for
somo of our elections in recent years is tragic evidence that
our citizens are not fully awake to their privileges and re
ftpoiiHibilitios. The constitutional structure of this iuition
places the power or government in the hands of tho people.
It is only when ALL tho people participate in government
through their voto that wo can have tho BEST government,
Political pressure groups are growing more and more
, powerful. Efforts are made to organize voters interested in
j one particular phase or policy to elect candidates pledged
I to a particular cause. In light elections pressure organiza
tions are offered opportunity to name their representatives.
Usually a candidate pledged to one side of a controversial
subject is not the person most suitable to exercise fully the
responsibilities of tho office he seeks. But we have swn
many minority candidates elected in recent years, simply
because we failed to obtain a majority vote.
Those are busy times, particularly here in Douglas County
where continued rapid growth, with its many handicaps,
imposes so much work upon so many people. But, despite the
demands of business or trade, no qualified elector should
neglect his duty of citizenship.
We care not how you vote but VOTE !

Feller Hurls
Cleveland To
Leesgue Lead
Ev JACK HAND
(Associated Press Sports Writer)
Bobby Feller and his Cleveland
Tribe have cooled off Connie
Macks Athletics and wrested the
actual American League lead
from Philaciclnhia.
By a mathematical freak, the
Indians slipped into first place
Tuesday night when they really
iraiiea ine a s oy a nan game.
No longer is there any freak
about it. Feller took care of that
The fireballing righthander,
who was the only American
Leaguer to win 20 games last
season, hung up his fifth victory
last night by trimming Philadel
phia, b-i, witn three hits.
Feller's brilliant pitching ner-
mitted the Tribe to sweep the
series from the A's, who came
into town on a red hot spree after
winning a doubleheader in the
Yankee Stadium.
Last night's crowd saw Feller
retire the side in order in seven
of the nine Innings while the
home club routed Dietrich In
five-run fifth.
Newhouser Finally Wins
Ncwhouser got back on the win
path after being knocked out five
straight times when he hurled De
troit to a 4-1 decision over Boston.
Wertz broke ud a 11 came
wnen ne nomered on Kinder with
two on in the last of the n nth.
Mullin s homer in the fourth ac
counted for the other run.
The New York Yankees finally
got a route-going job from Lonat.
ex-White Sox'er, who allowed 12
hits In taking an 8-4 verdict over
-Sanford and the St. Louis
Browns.
Pitcher Wynn helped Washing
ton out oi trouoie with tils bat.
Coming In as a pinchhiltcr he
singled home two runs that
started the Senators to a 41 nod
over Chicago.
Cards Maul Dodders
There were some high shenani
gans at Ebbets Field, where the
St. Louis Cardinals thumped
Brooklyn, 14-7. It lasted for three
hours and 2s minutes and con
sumed five of the Brooks' seven
able pitchers.
While the Dodgers were losing
their fourth in a row at home,
the Phils were coming from be
hind to shade Chicago, 2-1.
Tho New York Giants took ad
vantage of another fine pitch
ing job by Janson, who curved
the ball past Cincinnati for a
5 0 victory.
Boston uncovered a new rookie,
Vern Bickford, who may have an
Important bearing on .the race.
Bickford, making his first start,
limited Pittsburgh to five hits in
a 4-1 victory. ;
