United States Senator Willard f.
Tydings CD of Maryland. who
said it is likely 10 take until 1914
before the United Nations are pre-.
pared to deliver the "sledge.

the Axis.
Rejecting as "wishful thinking
the suggestion that the war might
end this year as a consequence OF
heavy air raids on Germany
Tydings said in a radio address
ITO defeat Germany or to
bring the Nazis to their knees
so they will give up will take a
great deal more than air raids
alone on German cities.
THE only certain way OF de-
feating Germany Is TO defeat her

Service Vote
Runs Into Sndq

WASHINGTON, July 13 (INS).
Senate and House proposals 10
set up election machinery before
autumn in army and navy stations
scattered throughout the world to-
day ran sfoul of objections from
heads of the nations armed serv-
ices.
Congressional hackers OF four
distinct plans were informed that
navy and war department leaders
did not see how any adequate vot-
ing scheme could be devised that
would not interfere with the fight
ing program.
The objections just about dealt
a death blow 10 complete pool
of approximately 100000 soldiers
and sailors who would take part
in the choice OF all representatives
and 80 senators this fall.
However, soldiers from states
that make adequate provision for
voting by absentee ballot may still
express themselves without any
objection.
In both World War 7 and the
war between the states. the states
sent election commissioners into
the camps and conducted polls. In
those times, men were assigned TO
units made up of others from their
own states. The election machinery
was simple and easy to handle.
In 1912 a military unit of any
size must be made up of men from
many states.

Paul V. McNutt revealed today
that 100000 additional workers

year to the 1880, 900 persons now
employed in the nations war
plants.
General labor shortages are

McNutt.
Increased employment Of women
and other persons not now in the

workers during the next year and
a half, he said.
Asserting that war employment
has practically doubled in the
seven months since Pearl Harbor,
he added:
This shows that industry and
government have struck their
stride In producing for war. 1t
also shows that a large per-
centage of the In dustrial
workers In peacetime production
are shifting over to war pro-
duction."

Germany louise
More Airborne
Men, us. Learns

WASHINGTON. July ID (INS).
Information indicating that fu-
ture German offensive operations
may be characterized by increased
use of airborne troops was In the
possession of United States mill
tary authorities today.
Having pioneered with para
chute troops and airborne infan-
try in Norway. Western Europe
and Crete. the German high com.
mand is believed to be prepared
for operations of this kind on an
even larger scale in any new inva-
sion OF hostile territory or In tao
tical situations demanding quick
support for ground troops.
To this end, according TO the
war departments information, the
Germans are now training glider
and parachute troops at the rate
of from 1000 to 1.500 a month.
This means that a full division OF
from 1900 to 1900 OF these
troops are being turned out yearly.
AIRBoRNE INFANTRY
Noting that this total of glider
soldiers and paratroops might APP
pear small in relation to the large
number OF German airborne
troops which took part In earlier
campaigns of the present war. the
war department pointed out that
an additional element, airborne
infantry, must be taken into con-
sideration.
For this element, any required
number of soldiers is simply as
signed for air transportation, with
fheir fighting equipment. to the
objective or theater OF operations.
where they are landed by huge
transports.
Latest data available In military
quarters here is that German
. glider regiment consists of three
kbattalions composed of four COM
panies each. three OF rifles and
one of heavier equipment, such as
machine guns and mortars. Each
regiment. also has company
equipped with Is nm. howitzers
and company with 81 nm. anti
tank guns.
WING TO A REGIMENT
One wing is assigned 10 each
glider regiment. The wing Is d.
vided into four groups, each group
consisting of II squadrons. The
gliders are usually towed single or
double. although II is possible that
more may be attached in one tow.
The ordinary glider for tactical
use carries 10 fully equipped SOL
diers and the same number is car
RED in each of the tow planes.
A larger German glider on which
American authorities have OBJ
tanned fairly complete information
is the Gotha. with accommodations
for % fully-equipped soldiers. in

with a wing span of III feet and a
