All of the combat ants have been too busy to register in 16 years so no sig nificance attaches to the out come. A number of republicans Journeyed to K. Falls to see Gov. Dewey. They report a bevy of locomotives hissed and blew-off steam, as if they were going to vote for a 4th term, e e e WHAT AILS GERMANY (S.F. Chronicle) "To be sure there are good Germans, peaceful Germans. In 70 years there have not been enough of them. In that time there have been too many Germans slightly crazed with racial pride. There have been too many Germans di rectly scheming to dominate their fellow peoples by blood and Iron. There have been too many Germans loving uni forms and harsh authority and subject to wacky periods of glory visions, and insen sitive to accumulated wrongs. There have been too many Germans to go off their nut on a leader." Royce Brier.) e The lynching by Italians, In cluding a number of women, of a minor fascist official was no Hollywood cafe or rural school row. It was more hyena than human. Others in Europe who became small-bore traitors to aid the Nazis, now look sad and make themselves scarce. There will be other similar affairs as the oppressed regain their feet, e e e Ma). Gen. U. S. Grant Robin stated yesterday: "T'here are a lot of pears on the ground wait ing for a heavy frost and a chance to ferment. I don't want anyone to get his hide full on V-Dny, and not be able to sing or fly, except off the handle. I want a list of all orchards where fruit Is fermenting and becoming alcoholic. I would visit one myself right away, if I knew." Fall arrives this eve. at 9:02. It will come from the north, to avoid the delay of bus connec tions In the south. e e e The "Indispensable Man" the ory has started to explode in tUe faces of Its proponents and New Deal moguls have started to adroitly side-step It, viz: Messrs. Truman and Wallace, who both adorn the vice presi dential horizon. Mr. Wallace without showing where he was stabbed in the back at the Han-negan-shenannlgnn in Chicago, or saying anything to cause his shipment to China, states, "It is not a question of 'incll.ipensa bllity' but who is the best man." That makes sense. The Ameri can people caused the change In tune. They were unable to swallow the notion but one man In a nation of 150,000,000 souls was able to match minds and wisecracks with Joe Stalin, e e e "With all the girls In defense plants, it's hard to get a date. They don't want to go out for a time any more. They want time and a half." (Marine Corps Chevrons.) e e New pictures show German major general smiling and sur rendering. It Is the first time a German general has been caught smiling, either in peace or war. Grinning is verboten in Der Fatherland. He ex pressed a desire to be sent to America, where he can giggle again. The Plymouth company set tled Maine, tha colony lasting but on yeai. Naturally this department was enthusiastic over Governor Dewey's San Francisco speech. For its theme was right down the M.T. alley known as the "middle road." It has always been the contention of this newspa per that the issue in this country need not be between plutocracy and socialism ; between reaction and radi calism. The proper course should be midway between the two extremes, avoiding the mercenary "laissez faire" doctrine of the Mark Hanna days on one hand, and the extreme bureaucratic regimentation of the New Deal on the other. Tliia ;qcj iha rmirao tVio T?nnnVilipnn rrinrlirlaro arl- vocated in San Francisco last night, and in an ex tremely eiiective, aoie ana convincing iasnion. We quote: Today we confront two dangerous alternatives. Under one, we may slip by gradual stages into complete govern ment regulation of every aspect of our lives. Under the other, we may become so intolerant of the restraints and Interferences in our lives as to take refuge in complete re action. Either of these courses would be tragic. Neither Is necessary. We have reached a point where we must make a crucial decision. We must decide this year whether we shall re ject both of these courses and choose a new leadership pledged to attain a maximum of security without loss of our essential freedoms, and witi neither malice nor favor toward any group or class. For myself, I am utterly confident that America can achieve stability and lnsting prosperity without the loss of any part of its political freedom. That we believe is true. But it can't be done under the Roosevelt admini stration, and Governor Dewey brought our clearly precisely why it can't be. IN the first place the Roosevelt administration is nrvrrnaA fVio nnlw o lfni-n n f MTrj in enma frtm nf ;ieaerai socialism, 13 strict governmental regimenta tion, designed to put private business, in a straight- jacket, under constant surveillance and suspicion. Certainly no one who has lived for over a decade under the present administration, can doubt this the abiding suspicion of, and hostility toward the business-profit system as far as President Roosevelt and his New Deal associates are concerned.

Japs Told B-29's Hit As Hard As Earthquake Cod Chungking, Sept. 22 (U.R) Chinese propaganda to the en emy on the Salween front is taking advantage of the one most overwhelming fear of the Japanese by comparing the B 29 blows on Kyushu with the terrible earthquake which rock ed the Nipponese homeland in 1923. Troops of the Japanese Sixth division on this front are all natives of the Island of Kyushu. Propaganda leaflets the Chinese drop to them accent the destruc tion being wrought on their home island and suggest the similarity between the Ameri can raids and the 1923 shock which levelled the flimsy cities of Japan.

Many have not received letters from home in more than a year and are worried about events there. Letters found on prisoners and casualties all follow one pattern: "We are expecting you to win the war. While you are fighting, we are increasing production here at home. We hope to see you soon."

No street parade of Al G. j Barnes when it appears here next Thursday. "THE plain undeniable fact is Franklin Delano Roosevelt does not LIKE business, never has and never will trust business and as far as that goes has no understanding of business. In such an atmosphere, as the New York Governor pointed out, there can be no departure from constant regimentation and class conflict; no relief for those who long for security on one hand and reasonable freedom on the other. Change that atmosphere and the entire American economy will change. For under a government that does not suspect business, does not spoil labor, re fuses to cater to any class, but insists upon a square deal and a tair deal tor ALL classes, the security, prosperity and well being that once so distinguished this country should return again. grant this is a roseate picture and represents " a high ideal which it may take many years and certainly will take a lot of hard work to attain. But as far as this paper is concerned we would cer tainly like to see Governor Dewey and the best cabi net of competent men he could select, TRY his hand at it. For we believe the idea is essentially the RIGHT idea the truly American idea it is worth fighting nara ior. i What better course to take toward this goal then ; than the following as outlined by the Republican can-! didate last night : We quote: Yet, If there Is one thing wo are all agreed upon, it Is that In the coming peacetime years we In this country must 1 have Jobs and opportunity for all. That is everybody's busi- j ness. Therefore, it is the business of government. But how? Where are we Roing to find these Jobs for everyone who wants to work? Certainly they will not be found In govern ment Itself. If all of us should go to work for the govern- ment, then our system would be no different from com munism or fascism. There can be lobs for all only If business, Industry and j agriculture are oblc to provide those Jobs. There are no clever short cuts to this goal. It cannot be achieved by some I Ingenious scheme roi.roeted by a social dreamer In a gov ernment bureau. The new denl pulled rabbits out of hats I for seven years and ended up in 1940 with ten million still, unemployed. We will achieve our objective only If we create i an economic climate In which business, industry and agricul ture can grow and flourish. 1 Our small businessmen, our farmers, the men who run our offices and factories and stores and mines must know that government wants each of them to succeed, that gov ernment stat ds ready, not to hinder, but to help. I am con cerned only that our people shall have jobs, and people can not have Jobs If businessmen are afraid to go to work, if management Is afraid to manage, If farmers are afraid to product. We want the en'erpiising men and women of America to make n success of their endeavors because that is the only way we enn have a going American economy In which all our people can find work at decent pay. e e e . We have seen In the war what can be done when Ameri can technical and manage tnent skill Is given a chance to do a Job. All that was necessary was to give American enter prises the green lislit In order to bring forth miracles of pro duction. In the same spirit, American business and Ameri can industry can be Riven the green light for peacetime pro duction. Then we shall see peacetime miracles as we hava seen wartime miracles. Doubt Facts in Editorial To the editor: ' Notice your article regarding the Dumbarton League. You claim England was talking war with France less than 50 years ago. I was reading newspapers then and have read a con siderable bit of history since and I bet you can't prove your claim. Kngland and France were talking war against Ger many then, not France aKainst England. I don't disagree with your Judgment on the Dumbarton League it's a lot of buloney but get your facts straight.
