'"pII2 hi idea today i.s to get out a hig vote. Mattel's o'
A great importance are before the peoile for decision
This decision should represent all the people, not a part
of them.
So regardless of what your business may be on ordinan
afternoons, make your first business this afternoon, thai
of voting. The polls don't close until eight o'clock. Th
election will probably be carried one way or the other ii
the last hour.
So if you haven't voted, do so. Every election day if
a test of democratic; government. . Every election carricc1
by a minority is a body blow at the survival of democratic
government.
We howl at the man who votes wrong. Put he is ;
haloed saint beside the man, or woman, who doesn'l
vote at all.
If you haven't voted, do so. Don't think up an excuse
There i.s none. There are slackers in peace as well as in
war. Heading the list of the former, is the citizen whe
shirks the obligations of a free government and enjoys its-priveleges.
POLITICAL
T1H- KVAY YORK WORLD belabors congress for tin
work it lias done. Hut for six months at least, congress
lias done no work, it lias been playing, playing the old
worn out jazz of partisan politics. It would take an ex
pert accountant to determine which party lias been the
more guiltv. The public in general is about as much dis
gusted with Attorney (ieneral
Day plots, as with (Senator Johnson and his political
junket. , There is little more sympathy for Secretary Dan
iels in his defense, than in Admiral Kims in his attack. Tin
entire performance fills the average citizen with weari
ness to the point of nausea.
Heaven only knows how much money, time and energy
has been wasted in these profitless "investigations." Tin
air .probe, the ship probe, the potash probe, and the Lore"
only knows how many other probes.
In each case there has been a majority report, damn
ing the Democrats, and a minority report, damning the
Republicans. Talk, about profiteers! Congress, whiit
spouting empty nothings about the II. C. L., has led even
other agency in the business, of wasting substance and
producing nothing. .

TKN thousand statesmen fume and -fret, upon the
well-known 'stump, and'lell how crises should be
met' and carted to the dump. They elocute until they'ie
hot, and rant and tear their duds; and it would help
things out a lot if they'd start raising spuds. By grow

lyres until they break the strings, and boost our altars
and our fires, our bulwarks and such things. But na
tions are not saved by tunes, however nobly played; the
poets should be growing prunes, which is a better trade.
Vov prunes the hungry children cry, and stricken par
ents pray, while bughouse poets drool and sigh of tem

to sell us foolish books, and they'd be far more useful
bores if they plied reaping hooks. The country's full
