| Alexandra Calls
| In 'C' Gas Books
| Issued in Error

Holders of G gasoline ration books
in Alexandria are appearing before
the local board in response to let.
ters asking them to bring in their
authorizations in order that the
board may determine how many
will have to be recalled.
Charles M. Jones, the board
chairman, said that a large percent
age of the G books would be ex-
changed for BIS because they had
been issued to persons who did not
come under the preferred classifi-
cation. Mr.. Jones said that misin-
terpretations by board workers and
errors in calculating mileage were
responsible for books being issued
to ineligible persons. He added that
Alexandria was not the only board
recalling G books as o. p. A, off,
cials were checking gasoline rations
throughout the country and many
would have to be recalled.
Mr.. Jones anticipates many com.
plants from persons forced to turn
in their c books, but he said the
board is able to issue them only to
essential war workers and other
preferred classifications, and ap.
peals will have to 60 direct to Rich.

Many New Problems

Voting this fall will not be the simple matter that it has been heretofore in most communities. Take our own, for ex- ample. Customarily the polling places 32 of them-are open from a. m. to 6 p. m. That seemingly is sufficient time to permit every eligible voter to visit the polls. But working hours are long these days and they are packed into the 24 hours of each day. It would seem as if the hours give any conceivable working shift a chance to vote, but already there are indications that efforts may be made to provide special hours for special workers.
 If this is true of election voting, then it is doubly true of primary elections. Here in Waterbury party rules, which govern the conduct of any primary, usu- ally stipulate the hours during which ballots may be cast and where. If it's city-wide primary it may be either by vot- ing districts or by wards, generally the former for convenience sake. Democratic rules, though, call for voting between the hours of 4:30 and 9:30, which obviously would prevent persons working from 3 to Il p. m. voting if they so desired
 And to add to these problems there is the ever-pressing one of enabling soldiers, sailors, marines, and others in the armed forces to vote by absentee ballot. Under Connecticut law application for such ab- sentee ballots may be made three months prior to election, which would be approx imately August 3. But to do that the ap- plicant would necessarily need to know what his military address was to be when his local Town Clerk sends him an off cial ballot. And that might not be possi- ble with rapid military movements these days.
 So all in all the 1942 vote may go in history as one in which thousands of voters fail to reach the polls, even though they had no intention of being stay-at- homes

A Thought for Today
Their Own Petard

The story of occupied Europe's gallant resistance to Nazi oppression, pieced to- gether by the Office of Facts and Figures In "The Unconquered People," empha- sizes anew how deeply the love of liberty has engraved itself in the human heart. Truly, there are things they can't do to us who have known what it was to be free.
 Under the iron heel of the most sadistic military power of modern times. with death for self and loved ones the price of any nlistep, the people of France and Holland, Norway and Greece, Serbia and Belgium, Czechoslovakia and Poland achieve telling sabotage against their Nazi conquerorS. Even the few highlights which trickle through rigid censorships demonstrate that the Liberty Front is acquiring more than token nuisance value.
 The ever more drastic measures which Hitler and Himmler are taking against such underground activities proves that these experts in fifth columning recog- nize the importance of the Liberty Front. When Lieut.-Col. Holtz was killed last Oc- tober by patriots in Nantes, the Gestapo shot 50 Frenchmen in reprisal. When an s. 8. (police) official was killed at Waeer DONOAAADCA, CfCAy HUI EOl1Sll uldl6 III LllG village was Shot-a total of 167.
 When Reinhard Heydrich, the butcher, was killed in Prague last month, more than 800 Czechs were slain in vengeance. These were not punitive executions of murderers, actual or alleged They were frankly preventive orgies, designed to estop patriotic resistance by making the price unbearably high-by assuring brave Frenchmen, Poles, Czechs, who might place no value upon their own lives, that any act against the Nazis would bring death to hundreds of innocents.
 Such horrible oppressive measures have proven futile. Resistance continues and increases. Having conquered most of the European continent, Herr Hitler has deadly bear by the tail, and it has be- come equally disastrous for him to hang on or to let go. The Nazis know how fatal an active fifth column can be. They used such to win almost bloodlessly over most sf their neighbors. Now the shoe is on the other foot. They are becoming victims of heir own methods When Nazism falls, the Liberty Front will deserve big share of credit.
