Let both major pArtieseo proposes tha puf falo Courier-IUpTeW-nominate Franklin D. Roosevelt for president and "some outstanding republican" for vice president. Then .the'; war ' time election may proceed without acrimony. FDR. would be honor-bound to resign the mor. t ment an armistice was signed ir Europe; he I would be named to head the American j peace conference delegation. Meanwhile "some out , standing republicarf. would become president. Perfectly logical and for that matter, per- fectly legal. Three objectives are proposed here and each might promote the national and International welfare. Roosevelt to continue as president until the fighting is well over the hump; Roosevelt to sit in at the peace; a re publican postwar administration. We'll applaud ; that third objective, at any rate. j The only trouble with the whole idea is that it can never be. If anyone wants to say it's fani , tastic, all right. Still, it's worth mentioning because in the reasons why it can never be, -there is a point that hasn't often been brought OUt. .. ' . "It was brought out the other day by the Med f ord Mail Tribune, though it wasn't discussing this particular scheme, ; which hadn't j been : hatched yet. The leading democrats who nom inated FDR in the 1940 convention were not, ' gaid the MT, preponderantly new dealers. They ; would have preferred to nominate someone else -who could be elected. They had no one else who could be elected, so they swallowed hard and took Roosevelt. J Victory and continued control for. the demo-1 cratic party were the overpowering objectives. The objectives in 1944 will be the same. The democrats will ' not resign control without a fight. For that matter, the republicans won't thrill to the notion of gaining control without a fight. Willkie wanted to "meet the champ." Politics in America is still a game. Is that good or bad? Who knows? It's never been tried here any other way. But oh, what a scramble there would be in the GOP for that vice presidential nomination, if the Buffalo idea were adopted! 'Inspiration: " . His father was manager of . big f sawmill and a substantial stockholder in the corpora- tion; , at least moderately I wealthy. " The son i wasn't a spoiled child, but just seemed to lack incentive and , self-confidence. Went through' college with neither difficulty nor. distinction,; took a routine clerical job with the lumber com-j pany, didn't progress much thereafter. Then, as they say in the movies, came Pearl Harbor. This young fellow, was well , into his ; thirties but still ) single. Did he go and get the, commission he could have had? No, he wasn't assertive enough for that.Jpid he join the ma-" rines and become first to set foot on Guadal-j canal? No, he was no fire-eater. - i t; q What he did was toljoiri the Seabees; and the next time he was heard from he was running a sawmill deep In the south Pacific jungle. - But there was more to the story he had built the sawmill with virtually "no . materials except discarded bits of military equipment. . j No one back home knew he could run a saw mill, much less build one in such circumstances.5 It just goes to show that war provides not only opportunity but inspiration. Thousands of boys who "never amounted to i much and ; probably never would" what amazing things they are doing! ;.'.; - : C ;"' "i Rationalization of war? Not a bit of it. One thing though we suspect that superior officers, and war plant executives,' are telling hesitant young fellows, and the former unemployed, and women, "Sure, you can do it!" Encourage- ment instead of discouragement. And : for an other thing can't comparable Inspiration and encouragement be drawn from some source to solve the individual and 'collective problems, postwar? . i' I r- - 1 i, - -: .:'. . -.. t s; -.: v - . - ! - f i Situation .Well in Hand SI Army advertisement seeking WAC enlist ment says, "Now you can choose your job.

This would fetth them: "Now you can serve where there are thousands of eligi ble bachelors." : ; - i Today's Gado IFVdDgirainras Leaders in the Victory garden movement in Oregon, Washington, Idaho and Montana will hold a two-day regional meeting this week in Portland. The purpose, it may be presumed, is to impress upon garden clubs, community Vic tory garden committees, seed dealers, press and radio the importance of continuing the Victory Earden promotion this year. The fact that such meeting has been called is sufficient to con vince this newspaper. Its encouragement to the program, will be continued. However, from the testimony- of those who Victory gardened last year, householders with a few square feet of soil won't, need encouragement; the only way to keep them from working it would be to put them in jail. i i - ' ' ' . ' - ' - ' - Interpreting The War News 1 By KIRKE L. SIMPSON Copyright 1M4 by tb Associated Press Moscow estimates that 15 German divisions have" been caught in the double trap sprung by the red armies in the Dnieper bend, but they represent a probable aggregate of only 175,000 men. That means the snared divisions are at half strength. At full strength the Russians might have had more than 400,000 enemy troops sewed up in the Dnieper sack for annihilation, and that could be decisive. f Whether Russian estimates are based on known nazi combat losses not replaced or upon knowledge that some parts of all trapped divisions had al ready been withdrawn in retreat is not clear. It seems highly probable, however, that the trapped troops comprised rear-guards, assigned to cover and conceal as long as possible a general and progressive nazi retreat on that Black sea flank. After all, German "evacuation" of the Rovno . and I,utsk rail and road hubs in Poland redoubled the danger of a decisive Russian break-through in ( 'the center to the Rumanian border or beyond. The Russians were, quick to seize the opportunity. - They are, after trigger game there than anywhere else on the long east front : f Lwow, metropolis of southeastern Poland, is di- . rectly connected by rail with both Lutsk and Rovno. It is the prime distribution center supporting the whole tottering German defense line east and south of the city and is in deadly peril. ! Lwow is on the Warsaw-Odessa main line, the last rail : trunk' connecting the whole nazi Black sea qank with. Germany direct, Russian ! forces to the 'south on the upper Bug river below Vinnitsa have stood on the defensive almost within sight of the line for weeks, beating off furious German counter attacks. The nazi forces engaged in these operations now ' are-, threatened with being cut . off from Germany. f . ";;v '. 'j ; V-' : ?;.-). . The threat to Lwow as the Russians swing south ward from the Lutsk-Rovno salient is obvious. Mos cow reports placed spearheads at Mlinov and Mi soch, south of Lutsk and Rovno, over the weekend. That represented about a SO mile advance on Lwow, still some 80 miles to the southwest ' ' ? It looks, however, as though TaraopoL next ma- : jor station couth of Lwow on the Warsaw-Odessa trunk line, might be the real Russian objective in that sector -rather than Lwow. Tarnopol is a criti cal doorway to the heart of Rumania.' r : r A railroad leads due south from Tarnopol across the headwaters of the Dniester river into the val ley of the Siret -That valley is the highroad from the north,' passing east of the Transylvanian Alps,' to Ploestf and to Bucharest, Rumanian capital. A Russian drive in that, direction would threaten hundreds of miles in the-rear of the whole German flank to the Balck sea. The red push south from ' Lutsk and Rovno seems headed that way.'

Similarly, Lord Halifax, the British ambassador made a Toronto speech calling for a closer-knit postwar British empire in order to keep Britain from being minimized by "the giants like the United State, Russia, and China." Immediately thereafter, Stalin's supreme soviel (parliament) unanimously got and , adopted the idea of dividing Russia into 1 individual repub lies for international purposes only 1 This action was the - Moscow counter-pressure move, not particularly against the Halifax speechh but against its obviously authentic presentation of the current British official cabinet position (Hali-j fax is a member of the war cabinet). That is the least the very least it was That is the most op timistic construction which can be placed upon it There was no natural reason why Russia should break into 16 states. The "breakage is purely super-! ficiaL Moscow will continue, to control, as always!; Autonomy was always theoretically provided in the Russian constitution, and denied in fact , ; , " f Not even the domestic communists have offered any justification for this new move other than the apparent diplomatic intention of Russia to take hi Poland, the Baltics, Finland, even the Balkans! and perhaps Germany itself as an individual com munist republic, empowered to deal individually in foreign affairs nd entitled to, the delusion o maintaining its own inferior army. ; . : i The time has come to speak frankly, although; our officials naturally cannot They regard the; Russian split, plus the attack on the pope, the sen-' arate treaty with Czechoslovakia, the attack on!

There it was that super iority of American' seamanship asserted itself. -Against t h e s e odds the American ship . admin-' Istered heavy punishment to the Jap flagship, and by the expert .... navigation; of Capt Rodgers es caped for over two hours getting only .two hits out of the hun- . dreds of enemy shells that fell all around the vessel. : Eventually ; the "American , cruiser was hurt in its vitals and stopped dead still. Adm. McMor ris then ordered the destroyer squadron to fly at the throat of the enemy line. K With ; one de-. : stroyer leff to screen the strick-. - en American ' cruiser the three destroyers obeyed Commodore Riggs order: "Our targets are the heavies" three ships against ten, 5000 tons 'against 50,000. - Coming on at full speed the advance - destroyer took ' a " hit r . from the enemy, but when the destroyers jcame within torpedo - range they started launching tor pedoes at the Jap heavies. Then a silence fell on the sea. The men. on the American cruis- er J concealed - under; the smoke screen, picked this message out of the aiir, from - Commodore , Riggs whose ships they had pre sumed had been sunk. This was - the commodore's message: "The enemy are retiring westward. Shall I follow them?" Fearing the American torpe does, with j the Jap flagship . al ready badly battered, the enemy task force : turned tail and ran. Thus the combination of skill in maneuver and courage overcame the superior strength of the en- ; ' emy.
