Voters Not Convinced

For whatever il may be worth, the
Gallup poll published Sunday shows
that only one person in three who
were interviewed is satisfied at the
rate of speed being attained by the
United S.ates preparedness program.
One voter said he would not be
content until he could see the skies
full Of American planes and tanks
rolling through the streets OF his
town. That is far-fetched, bat it is
symbolic of an apparently deep
seated feeling that American indus
try is not being geared to national
defense production at the rate it
should be and of which nearly every
American believes it capable.
We were not interviewed on the
subject, but the result of the testing
of public sentiment is in line with
our own beliefs often expressed be-
fore this. What worries us good
deal. too, is that there is nothing
we can do about it. The RESPONSE
bility rests with government ottl-
aials. who find themselves entangleI
in the mesheS of a routine and red
tape by comparison with which the
spiders web to the fly is as a paved
highway with the signals all green.
Adequate preparedness will not be
achieved by the United States until
there is a general realization on all
sides that this is not a thing for poll
ticians to toy with. And we suspect
there is d sneaking secret notion
abroad, and with some justification
that that is just what is going on. 1t
is serious business. Ambitious
maniacS who harbor in their inmost
souls a burning desire to dominate
and control the world are not going
! to wait for us to act in the manner
which is our custom, Of politicians
voting only after it is fairly evident
how the election will go.
! The safety and security Of this
country is greater and Of infinitely
more Importance than the politica
future of any one man or group oil
men in our public life, from the TOP
on down. Some people evidently
have not yet caught that vision, OF
if they have they are not acting with
the wisdom which the circumstance!
demand.
This latest sounding of public
opinion apparently has sensed the
situation, or believes it has. 1t is {
crosS-section of the sentiment Of the
! people.

Next thing you knew, that scamp was
gone.
At first, he'd step and open the door,
And take you arm, and up you'd go,
After-Wed, he'd look and say,
"Climb on in, if you're going my Way''
AT first, he'd always be right there,
After-wed, just sits and doesn't care,
And leaves you alone to do the work
By walking around, to pull and jerk.
At first, he'd let you take the wheel,
After-Wed. he'd fuss and foam and
squeal,
And then rush out and off he goes
To some old place, heaven only
knows.
At first, he'd drive with just one
hand.
With the other, holding tight as Jobs
hat band,
After wed, when out to take ride,
He yells, get back there on your
side"
At first he'd always be around,
After-Wed, is out, and can't be found,
Whcn'er you'd want to take drive.
You really wouldn't know, he was
dead or alive.
At first he'd be ready to take you out,
After-Wed. would froWn, just fret
and pout
When you ask, and claims he's tired.
But mention club, he gets inspired.
At first, he'd help you wash and
scrub,
After-wed, he's off to some old club,
The club maybe, with his other girl,
You really wouldn't know he was in
the world.
The women just ought 10 have law,
With Sharpcncd teeth, as a croSs-cut
saw,
To make these husbands after-wed,
To remain as "at first" and 90 20
bed.

Willkie Speaks

Comment vi politicians in Wash
ington and elsewhere on the Wlllkie
address Saturday accepting the Re
publican nomination for President
was according 10 Hoyle and about
as expected. and in respect to its
value to the public was worth en-
actly nothing. Democrats rniver-
sally belittled it and Republicans
unanimously praised it.
1t was lengthy enumeration Of
issues and conditions, but seemed
somehow to be q mild departure
from the Willhie pre-convention
style OF speaking plainly and going
directly 70 the point. 1t appeared to
betray the influence OF professional
politicians: in that there was strad-
ding rather than directness.
Mr.. WLlkie got where he is today
because Of lis franknecs and honesty
with the people. That is what has
attracted the admiration of so many
Willkie converts. But policy dur

and no: so influential in vote-gettll9.

over, the best 4 candidate tO.' presi-
dent can do on an occasion ike tuat
OF Saturday is 10 deal more OF less
in generalitieS. leaving specific and
flat-footed declarations and commit
ments Tor later elaboration. That
may have been the Willkie technique
in his IirSt public utteranca Ct the
campaign.
Many New Deal reforms we're en-
dorSed. in principle, in the address.
The statement IN favor Of / ceiling
for hours and a floor for wages Is an
example. AT one and the same time
it left the door open for changes III

But Mr.. Willkle was clear on the
idea of restoration Of at least meas

To Test Hanks
Stamina, Skill
Armstrong Is Rated
Slight Fovorite on
His Experience
BY BILL WHITE,
Associated Press Sports Writer.


NEW YORK, July 15.-A Negro
poet fights a former Army mule
skinner.
That's the prize rings prize offer-
ing for the month-and there's no
title in sight for either of the fight
ers!
Seldom has fistiana pitted two
such extremes as Henry Armstrong.
the cultured colored man who is the
welterweight king, and Lew jenkins.
the Texas thin man, who rules the
lightweight division.
But for all their apparent differ.
ences, they have one thing in com.
mon-the pound -for-pound ability to
fight better than anybody else their
size. and so it is pronounced that
their 12-round Wednesday night
meeting will lure some 10000 fans to
the Polo Grounds.
Experience in Hanks Favor.
Armstrong, who once held the
featherweight. lightweight and well
terweight titles at one time, has an
autobiography almost ready for the
publishers, but the most interesting
chapter may have to be written after
the fight-if Henry still can write
by then.
Because of his greater experience
and durability, he'll be favored to
win, even though he hasn't set any
one af1ame with his training camp
showing.
1t may take all the cleverness he
has stored up in years of ring war;
fare to keep away from the thun-
derous punches of the Sweetwater
socker, for Jenkins jolts just like one
OF his Army mules and is a fairly
competent boxer. But the experts
think he'll have to land one of his
high, hard ones fast, or the bob.
bing, weaving Armstrong will cut
him down to size with vicious body
attack
Lew Giving Five Pounds.
As a welterweight. Armstrong has
been invincible, defending his title
many times without being especially
hard-pressed. However, speculation
on this engagement has been rife
because every one admits he hasn't
met any one who punches with the
destroying force of jenkins.
Henry is not the superb piece Of
fighting machinery he used to be,
but the experts are impressed with
the fact that he has announced his
decision to retire after SIX more
fights and that he Is determined to
go out Of the ring unbeaten In his
last appearances.

Mats Hopes of Leaving Cellar
This Week JoIted by Injury
Benching CIouting Travis

game-winning single down the third
base line with two out in the
eleventh.
The Indians hoped on Ken Chase
for three runs in the first inning,
but the Mats trimmed that lead to
80 in the second before Cleveland
scored another run in the third in
ming to snatch a AZ advantage.
Lewis triple and zeke Bonura's
single to right narrowed the gap for
the Mats in the sixth, but the In
dians apparently insured the de-
cision in the ninth when they nicked
Chase for three singles and another
run.
Bonura singled off Shortstop Lou
Boudreau's glove to launch the
Washington portion of the ninth,
but the Mats seemed doomed to de-
feat when Bloodworth and Myer
were retired on inf1eld outs.
Keltner's Fumble Costly.
Pofahl whacked a single of AL
Smiths pitching hand, however,
and Bonura scored and Pohahl
moved to third as Rick Ferrell's
grounder took a weird hop over
Third Baseman Ken Keltner's head.
Johnny Welaj batted for Chase and
Pohahl scored with the tying run
when Keltner fumbled Welaj's
smash.
Alexandra Carrasquel checked the
Indians for the next two innings and
Washington pushed over the decid-
ing run for him, giving the lanky
Venezuelan his second win of the
year and making him the only
Washington pitcher who has won
more games than lost.
Myer drilled a single of Boudreau's
glove start the eleventh and
Pofahl sacrificed. Ferrell was issued
semi-intentional pass by Joe Dob
son, who had replaced Smith with
two out in the ninth, and Carrasquel
fouled to Catcher Rollie Hemsley.
Case prolonged the rally with a
single off Keltner's glove to cram
the bases and Lewis sent the Gus
toners home by slicing a single to
left.
