Mothers report a shortage of
long trousers for Juniors. In
these time Willie can't wear
Papa's pants. He would have to
turn the legs up. When Willie
gets a new pair, he turns them
up to be collegiate.

A fierce political controversy
Is raging between three of the
Older Girls over their preslaen
tial choice. 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,

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.)

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.

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.)

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.

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.

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.

Statements of prisoners reveal
that the morale of the Japanese
soldiers is not high. 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."

"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.
