Suffrage Age of 10
Envisioned in Report

Possibility of lowering the voting
age from'2l to IS years is envisioned
in a report of the Educational Poll
cies Commission of the National
Education Association today follow
ing investigation of what high
schools are doing to prepare young
men for democracy.
The report said there is distinct
problem in the gap between the
age of 18 when secondary education
is now generally completed and the
assumption of suffrage age of 81.
Actual recommendation of lower
ing the voting age. however, was
postponed by the commission until
it has a chance to go into all the
ramifications of such a proposal, it
was stated.

said the Republican party had been
"traditionally sympathetic to China's
struggle for independence and lib
erty."
Chinese spokesman expressed hope
that Mr.. Roosevelt would continue
his present firm policy toward ag-
gressor nations and particularly in
crease American aid to China
British circles envisaged even
closer British collabora-
ton IN both the East and West.
And so it went around the world,
with the reaction closely tied in with
military geography.
Satisfaction of Mexicans-The
government and general public-was
obvious. Government officials in the
neighboring republic said Mr.. Roose-
velt's continuation in office augrred
lust and mutual" solution of is
sues between the two countries and
rapid evolution of the joint military
and economic defense of the West
ern Hemisphere.
Said the United States Ambas-
sador to Mexico, Josephus Daniels:
There never has been doubt the
American people would register a
vote of confidence in Mr.. Roosevelt"
Spain Is Indifferent.
The Vichy government of Ger
dominated France discreetly
appraised the Roosevelt swing as
of no more Importance to France
than would have been a Willkie
swing. An official spokesman pic
tured French preoccupation with
building uu Europe" and declared
what goes on in America does not
concern US"
The official Spanish reaction was
similarly one of professed indiffer-
ence. One newspaper editorial, how
ever, maintained that the position
of the axis powers in the war now
is so strong that no intervention by
the United States could turn the tide
Of their success.
In keeping with a policy of strict
neutrality, Swiss offlcialdom is re-
luctant to react publicly to any event
outside Swiss boundaries.
Hungarian spokesman said the
election outcome would not have
much immediate influence" on the
future of Southeastern Europe, de-
claring there was little choice be-
tween the two men,"
The response in the capitals of
Yugoslavia, Rumania and Bulgaria
ran along similar lines.
Early editions of the Hungarian
press bannerlined Mr.. Roosevelts
assured victory" and declared it
meant a smooth and more intensi-
fed armament program as well as
uninterrupted help for Britain.
The editorial comment generally
was that, although the Roosevelt
and Willkie foreign policies were
almost identical, Mr.. Roosevelt was
regarded by the American public
as able to push the program of as
sistance for the British more Wig
OrOuSly.

thing entirely new among French
men, who have traditionally re-
manned aloof from the decisions Of
the American electorate. 1t is, of
course, directly attributable to the
conviction the American peoples
choice for the next four years will
have vital bearing on the evolu-
ton Of the European war. There is
a decided feeling here that Presi-
dent Roosevelt may be the one to
assume the task of attempting to
put the world mess in order.
The French people on the whole
have lost none of their traditional
American sympathies. 1t is true
that they have believed what they
have been told about Americas
helping them more in words than
by acts. But they realize that these
words have always been friendly.
