nations awaiting the heralds of
victory, the Journal believes
that the course of American In
terest suggests the reelection of I
President Roosevelt," the edi
torial stated.
The Journal, Independent
Democratic, supported Wendell
Willkie In 1940.
Stand Exolalned
The newspaper explained Its
stand by saying, "Mr. Hoosevcn
Is the war president, commander-in-chief
of the American
armed forces and leading figure
In the allied strategy both of
war and of peace. While the
colossal struggle continues, the
Issues of the presidential elec
tion and of war and peace are
Inseparable."
The Journal praised the Re
publican nominee, Gov. Thomas
E. Dewey .of New York, as a
capable criminal prosecutor but
said "much of his support as
candidate for president Is nega
tive in. that It springs from a
distrust of Mr. Roosevelt's ad
ministration of domestic affairs
rather than from an enthusiasm
for Mr. Dewey."
The editorial stated that the
Journal has maintained Its op
position to multiple presidential
terms and national government I
too much In the grip of bureau
cracy, but felt that successful
prosecution of the war and a
firm peace could be best retain
ed by the reelection of the presi
dent.

Pointing out that the post
master general, Frank C. Walk
er, has said that 70,000,000
Christmas' packages will prob
ably be mailed to servicemen I

siderable number of packages i

Mr. DeSouza cautioned every
one to use the utmost care in
making up the Christmas pack
ages, since they must be of a
stated size, must be . esDeciallv

minded relatives that the Elks
lodge is providing containers of
the correct size and type for
mailing the gifts and that thru
the Oregon Extension service,
foods of certain types will be
sealed in tin cans which may '
then be mailed. At the Extension i
Service office it was said that!
the project Is proving very popu
lar, with nearly 1,000 cans hav
ing been put out for filling.
Those using the service are
urged to bring the filled cans in

the workers may not be too hur
ried toward the end of the mail
ing period. The work of sealing
the cans is handled daily at the

packing the Christmas parccli
and also recipes for suitable

State Barriers Boost the Price of Meat, Vegetables, Milk, Clothes, Razors,
Baby Buggies, Cigarettes, Face Cream and everything else we buy!
T T TRE'S an issue, gentlemen, that affects all of uj
ever)- time we lay a dollar on the line. It has
to do with highway transportation.
Practically everything w Iniv, cat, wear, or c
O'Oes nl or pirt of the yoy by truck.
Ss'iner)--cight percent of all farm products travel
truck. Raw materials, parts, anj sub-assemblies
reach our factories hy truck. In fact, our entire eco
nomic system is geared to trucks . . . nearly fie
million of them . . . operating on every highway anj
byway of the nation.
.STAT! BARRIERS BOOST COSTS
Trucks are doing a magnificent job. Put they c""li
ila II better more efficiently jf jt ssercn't for 2
v:ist mire of contr.iiTicton' t ire l.iss.
In one state you can operate a 60-foot truck-trailer.
Cross the state line, and you've got to shrink it to
40 feet.
You can carry a pay load of 30 thousand pounds
, on one stretch of L S. highway but a mile down
the line your total load is limited to IS thousand
pounds. The same highway. The sme roadbed nmj
construction. Ttut totally different load limits! That
means re-loading or re-routing or not operating
at all.
Hundrcdsof conflicting regulations on insurance,
licenses, operating fees, mileage fees complete the
confusion.
For the "duration" a lot of these laws have been
suspended -to at gasoline, tires, manpowcr-and
to boost war production, a frank admission on every
Ixxly's part that such laws arc seriously wasteful.
But w hen peace comes, these laws automatically
gn back on the books again. The cost comes out of
every citizen's pocket.
So, here's what a good many people are asking
these days, "Mr. Roosevelt, do you favor removal of
state trade barriers? How about you, Mr. Dewey?"

preciated by our state governments. The American
