Because of the large amount
of political advertising in this
issue of your paper, many news
notes and features are omitted
from this issue. Still, as a mat
ter of fact, most of the pOliti-
cal ads carried are news of i'm
pOrtance to every citizen. Each
of the candidates whose ad ap-
pears in your paper presumably
wants your vote. Some of them
deserve it and perhaps some do
not. Our recommendations for
voters will appear in the edition
of Nov. 2. Our recommendations
WILL NOT be based on the
amount of advertising the re-
spective candidates give this
newspaper, but rather on the
candidates record plus his at
titude towards the American
citizen of Negro ancestry.
Editor.

Pocket Veto
pletion

A pocket veto refers to a bill
submitted to the President just be-
fore the adjournment of congress
so that ten days later, when con-
gress has adjourned, the bill, If 1t
has not been signed, will be null
and void. In other words, If con-
gress has adjourned, the President
may either sign a bill, after which
1t becomes law. or veto it, after
which 1t has no effect, or he may
keep 1t for ten days and take no
action upon it, which has the same
effect as q veto.

PARIS, Nov, 2.-Premier Dou- mergue seemed likely to be forced from his office as the result of the refusal of the Radical Socialist Party, headed by Edouard Herriot. to give him increased power to dis solve the Chamber of Deputies.
 President Lebrun continued his desperate efforts to reach a com promise and have a truce govern ment, which took over authority after bloody rioting last February. He has summoned Herriot, who is former Premier, to the palace. but the latter's radical Socialist supporters said there is little hope for a settlement.
 A cabinet session is scheduled for tonight and should it fail to solve the question, the cabinet might re- sign.
 Only a miracle can avert the crisis, said one of the ministers.
