Writes:

After all. it appears that they who
prophesied there would be no 1919
year-old draft until after election
were right. For a time it looked as
though Congress might make liars
of the cvnics. But no such luck.
The holdup cannot be held against
all congressman, and not even
against both houses. The repre-
Sentatives approved a clear-cut
amendment which met the nations
military. industrial and social need
in this regard. AS a body, the rep
resentatives can hold up their
heads.
But in the Senate obStructionism
cid the dirty work. tying onto the
teen-age draft rider so vital that
the whole bill must wait until rep
resentatives get back from re-elec-
ton campaigns.
First there was the Josh Lee
prohibition rider which delayed
matters. 1t is not for us to pass
here upon the sincerity of the Ok
lahoma senator in urging the ban
ming of liquor sales in and near
military camps Nor is the wisdom
of his proposal the most important
issue.

SENATE DELINQUENCY

Nevada State JOurnaD
In this time Of war, when every minute
is precious, we find the United States
senate wasting hours in discussion of
an anti-poll tax bill which congress
should not consider at all.
The situation in the senate, if times
We're normal. is such that it would pro-
duce much amusement for the folks at
home although the question at issue is
serious in itself. Lack of a quorum, !
filibustcr and threats of various kinds
are combined in q comedy of errors IN
the senate, which may continue for days
and days, when there are so many things
that the senate should consider Of vital
conc arn to the national welfare. There
are 10 bills Oh the senate's calendar.
1t is granted that the poll tax is used
in some southern states to diSfranchlSe
Negroes and others who cannot pay the
tax but The question of rights of states
TO control their own affairs is of far more
importance. Those members of congress
VINO are trying to force federal control
over purely state question are break
ing down the very thing that has raised
the United States to its present great
position among the nations Of the world.
TIE poll tax has outliVed its useful
ness and Nevada should amend its own
constitution to repeal the provision, but
this state and no other state wants the
federal government stepping in and tell
ing it what to do. Next might come the
federal supervision Of all elections. 1t
is a logical step.
Senate Democratic Leader Barkley
said senators owed it to themselves not
to contribute to the delinquency of the
senate" by absenting themselves from
the floor. The "delinuuency of the SEN
ate" is Barkley's burden as the senate
should never have become involved in the
time consuming mess.

THE PATTERN OF
THE WINTERS WAR

Gradually, the plan and meaning of
United Nations warfare against Adolf
Hitler for this winter is unfolding itself,
and as it does one thing becomes more
and more certain
Hitler must win back some of his losses
this winter. or he is definitely, irrevocab-
ly beaten.
The United Nations, comparably, are
in an especially good position. They
can suffer setbacks this winter without
the result being ultimate defeat. They
are growing stronger, and any reverseS
they meet will be merely temporary
Germany. on the other hand, is at the
crossroads. She is being pounded un-
marcifully in Russia, where her armies
are in danger of being driven almost
completely out Of all the territories gain
ed last summer She is even more grave
ly thr aatened from the south, from North
Africa, and must risk being run out of
Russia entirely in order to strengthen
her southern defenseS.
At the moment, the Russian gains may
be the most sensational, but do not over
look the fact that the winter campaign
is going to be won or lost in North Afr-
ca. Hitler can take a severe beating IN
Russia and still not lose the war. He
cannot suffer many reverses on the south
without meeting complete disaster.
Berlin realizes this fact That is why
the Germans are drawing planes and
men away from Russia, even allowing
segments of their armies to be trapped
and annihlated, in order to reinforce the
fighting in the south. Hitler, it is becom-
ing apparent, would give. up the whole
of Russia if by doing so. he could keep
his hold on North Africa
Bear these facts in mind when you
read the war reports. A united Nations
advance of two miles in Tunisia these
days is worth a Russian advance Of twen-
ty miles on the eastern front. Complete
Allied occupation of Tunisia would be
worth more To the democracies as a whole
than complete annihilation Of all the
Germans in the Caucasus.

WE HAVE
LEARNED
(Palo Alto Times }

(Palo Alto Times)
We have learned few things in this
country since the last war.
Right now plans are being made for
a class in the japanese language as part
of the curriculum of the adult education
department of the Palo Alto Unified
School District. And the innovation is
noted in a number of other spots.
Not only that, but we have read IN
the public prints some chding words
about our slowness in having seen the
Importance of learning the languages of
other peoples in the Pacific basin.
All that comes while we are at war
with Japan. 1t took a war to arouse us
to the importance of this new educational
venture.
How different it was during the last
war Then the first reaction in educa
tiOnal circles was to abolish the courses
in German. And that move, silly enough
in itself, was supplemented by ten
dency toward doubling the Americanlsm
of the teachers who had been giving the
courses through those many years in
which we and the Germans were on annie
able terms. and war between ourselves
and anybody was unthinkable.
1t was wretched judgment, that ban
ishing of opportunity to learn the enemy
language. particularly when so many of
the enemy representatives knew ours. 1t
gave the enemy an advantage.
Because there are more japanese
speaking English than there are Ameri-
cans knowing the language of Japan,
the Asiatic enemy has that advantage
over us.
We are late in getting started on this
important educational course. But we

NOT MERELY An
INVASION SPRINGBOARD

The North African war front is more
important right now than Russia for
many reasons, several of them more i'm
portant than the we'll known one that
North Africa might provide spring
board for an Allied invasion of Europe
proper.
Principal reason for importance of
the southern front is tWO-fold: North
Africa under complete Allied domina
ton would plug the last gap in ring of
steel around the Axis, shutting off es-
cape and communication on a large scale
with the outside world, and within this
ring of steel Allied supply lines would
be considerably shortened to Russia, to
the Near and Far East, and to all points
in Africa.
Hitler has never been completely en-
circled. The southern path has been
open to him since the beginning of the
war. giving him roadWays for incoming
supplies and better communications with
his yellow allies in the Pacific. With
that path closed, he will be caught in
gigantic trap. 1t will be only 4 matter
of time then. and careful preparation,
before the trap will crush the life out
of TIE Axis.
The Germans are going to exert every
energy at their command to prevent COM
pl2tion of the trap. They may be expect
ed to take what would be great risks un
der other circumstances. For the Ger
mans they are not risks nOW-they are
vital necessities.

What does matter is that Sena-
/ tor Lee could not possibly have
been ignorant that his rider was SO
intensely controversial that its at
! tachment inevitably would stall
final action upon the draft law
amendment, BY pushing the rider,
ne willfully permitted military
necessity TO wait.
When ultimately this was side
tracked and left to stand or fall
later on its own merits, came the
rider offered by Senator O'Dahiel
requiring that drafted men under
/ 90 not be sent into combat until
after a year straining.
Sentimentally this is fine. Prac-
tically, it has appealing angles. But
United States senators know some
OF the elementary facts Of life. They
must realize that co-ordinated COM
bat units can not be prepared for
action if commanders are obliged
to drop out ,. OF 10 per cent OF
! the men because those men are in
eligible for combat.
If such a law is adopted, the
only recourse will be to put the
teen-agers into separate regiments
and divisions, train them for a year
and send them into battle more
or less intact. Comprising, as they
will then, our best shock troops,
these exclusively youngster outfits
! will get the most hazardous tasks,
and mortality among them will be
inordinate!y heavy.
That is the practical effect of
Senator ODaniels proposal, which
! 80 senators tackled onto the draft
] law amendment. That, and delay
in passage of the measure until
representatives come back after
election.
| No, the cynics weren't wrong.
Congress again found itself unable
/ to do straightforward job in a
clean-cut manner, promptly and
effectively.
