UNITY IS THE ISSUE

The first duty of Americans in these post election days is to back whoeheartedy their Presi- dent and Government according to the virtually unanimous voice Of the American press, most of which supported MT Willkie in the campaign
 Editorial comment on the election which has come to the attention of The Empire includes the following:
 Seattle Times"The majority has chosen Frank lin Delano Roosevelt to third term as Presi dent That means that he has been chosen leader in-chef in peace commander-in- chief in war He thus becomes your leader and my leader. regardless of how we voted The Seattle Times will extend to the President exactly the same support it would extended to Willkie had the latter been elected
 Seattle Post-Intelligencer-"The most important task today for fifty million citizens who voted yes terday-and for all others who owe loyalty to this country-is to remember that before they are Demo- crats or Republicans they are Americans. Let us have good losers-to the extent of accepting the results gracefully and cheerfuly possible. Let us recogni2e-winners and losers alike-that the ccmnt four years likely to be the most critical in our national history and that the highest degree of national unity is Imperative if the United States to keep the torch of democracy alight in dark ening world We must mend any breaches in our household
 New York Times Franklin D Roosevelt has been reelected President of the United States and
 
 support in the critical days that lie ahead. The ap peal to the electorate is over The choice is made. We must close ranks in the face of the danger that threatens this country from abroad We disagree with the decision . but glory in the fact that is still system of government in which the will of the majority prevails, and the minority gives ungrudging support to the majority in the achievement every truly national purpose
 New York Daily News-"John L.

We think that the best thing for all Americans to do is to close ranks"
 Boston Herald-"For the first time in our his tory, the electorate has disregarded the tradition against the third term Many Americans will regret the outcome deeply and be disturbed at the possible direct and indirect consequences. But it was the people themselves who broke the tradition, and they did so in fair, open election where nobody acted under duress."

HOROSCOPE p E "The stars incline

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER Is

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 10
 Good and evil aspects are ac- tive today. It is wise to delay i'm portant matters until the after noon. In the morning the mind may be open to perplexities and uncertainties.
 Heart and Home: Good news from those on the seas is pres aged by the stars. Letters and cheering messages should come to mothers and to girls whose sweethearts are in the Navy. This evening may be disappointing fof romance or social contacts. Girls are counseled to prepare for wage earning vacations In the postwar establishment of economic sta bility women will be even more numerous than they have been ir business and the professions.
 Business Affairs: American in- ventors are to win great acclaim by their contributions to wal mechanisms of many sorts Chem ists also will prove their ingenu- ity in aiding government efficiency Proof of speed in production will be evident next month when many factories will turn out amazing re- suits of intensified industry, Pro jects of a colonizing character will be promoted in the spring.
 National Issues: The Panama Canal is to provide subjects for dis cussion in legislative assemblies and among the whole people. The, stars presage a sensation which will bring severe criticism upon those who direct the guarding of the great waterway Costly work is to be authorized as a safeguard for shipping. As the Administration proceeds to map the program for the future, great events are pre- saged
 International Affairs: Russia comes under a configuration which indicates diScontent among the people under the Soviet govern ment. Disease, deception and pow erty will cause troubles, but while many executions take place there will continue to be plenty of war service under unfavorable condi- tions. Disagreement with the Axis powers is prognosticated as the spells of aggression are claimed The Russian Bear will not have much chance to hibernate
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of year o1 quiet contentment. Artistic or lit- erary interest should be fortunate.
 Children born on this day will be high-strung and intuitive. They may be independent and difficult to guide. Many are inclined to follow cratic impulses.

dence before a coroner's jury of
widespread terrorism by night-rid-
ing floggers, accused of numerous
abduction-whippings and one death
over a two-year period, linked three
church.working county officers with
the Ku Klux Khan today.
One of the Fulton (Atlanta) county
deputies and a suburban policeman
were identified with a flogging. A
leather strap used in the fatal lash
ing of Isaac CASTOR, East Point
barber, was matched with the Scars
of another flog victim.
A coroner's jury heard the evil
dence yesterday, failing to name
Gaston's slayers. Its verdict said
he died from IAN unlawful beating
administered" by three or more IN
identified men. His beaten body was
found last Friday in a lonely SUI
burban section.
T. E. Young of East Point, where
several of the lashings were report
ed, barred his back to the coroner's
jury, showing scars he said were
caused by wounds inflicted by the
terrorists last summer. Assistant
Solicitor Daniel Duke matched the
heavy, four-foot strap, found near
Gaston's body, against the welts on
Young's back.
Called as a witness, County Dep
uty Sheriff W. W. Scarborough tes-
titled he was the exalted cyclops

Klux Khan. He declared Deputies

This Is London's View Of
One Result Of Russo
Finnish Peace

LONDON, March 14-P-Peace
between Soviet Russia and Finland
has killed a possibility Of Russia
and Germany being driven into a
full military alliance, authoritative
foreign office circles said today.
They asserted it was the British
governments view that Russia aid
to Germany will extend beyond the
economic sphere.
Since Intervention in Finland by
the allies first was discussed 1t
was the belief in some informed
quarters that Intervention on a
large scale would result in a Rus
sian-German military alliance.
Now that peace has come to the
north it Is widely held here that
Russia may become isolationist for
the time being. It is argued she
lost heavily in men and supplies
and will want to consolidate her
gains before considering any furth'
er adventures abroad.
Sources holding this interpreter
ton of the peace said Russia would
continue to supply Germany with
oil and wheat but on a greatly re-
duced scale due to war losses.
So far as Germany's aid to Rus
STA in the war with Finland was
concerned, this was regarded as in.
