Ed also listened sympathetically
to Katherine, and agreed that in
general, Democratic office holders
should stay out of Democratic pri-
maries.
However" added the boss of
the Democratic National Commit
tee, you realize that Casey was
operating in his own home county
and in his own Congressional dis
trict. And, of course, you know
that the president himself reserves
the right to take a strong stand
regarding Democra''r candidates
in Duchess County wne,, he lives.
So concluded Flynn, Il think
Casey was entirely within his
rights"
BACKSTAGE WITH BYRON
Not many people know the
whole story, but actually Casey
tried to save the beautiful Mrs.
Byron some embarrassment in
Montgomery County at the time he
seconded Lees candidacy to the
Democratic County Congress. This
Congress is overwhelmingly pro-
Brooke Lee. 1t is for him 100 per-
cent. And it was obvious to any
one that if Mrs. Byron's and Lees
names were proposed simultane-
ously, the days would not have
got one vote.
So Farmer Casey, taking Mrs.
Byron at her word - that she
would only fill out her husbands s
unexpired term and that she plan

Mr.. and Mrs. Average Citizen,
intensely patriotic, eager to take
part in anything that will aid in
winning the war, are constantly
asking themselves what they can
do to be of service.
Unavailable for active military
duty, lacking the skills or the ply
sique that would admit them to
the Specialists Corps, or to the
WAAC, these good people have a
sense of Illustration, sense of
uselessness, that in the aggregate
contribute to the total of "compla-
cency" which has been a ground of
complaint.
True, they can save things for
the junk pile that has become so
important in making up the de-
ficiencies but the ordinary house
holds waste is so small and appar-
emily so unimpOrtant, that most of
the folks think it less than worth
Whie to preserve and contribute
the odds and ends that commonly
go to the incinerator, or the gar
bage can, and so these are lost so
far as the scrap movement is con-
cerned.
Where a Little Becomes Big
Obviously the ordinary house
holds output does not amount to
much in itself However, if a
million homes take the same view,
the war machine is deprived of
thousands of guns, tanks, and air
plane necessities, so the unit does
become important.
The Hagerstown globe., 1942-08-07

sance to deliver the stuff to the
junk man, but war brings a thous-
and nuisances and it is we'll worth
the trouble.
1t is something like the impulse
that leads a careless citizen to
essay election day as a fine oppor-
tunity to go golfing or fishing, and
thereby not infrequently leads to
the elevation of unfit men to office.
1t is the same carelessness that
busy men are guilty Of when they
merely attend to their own busi-
ness instead of taking part in pri-
maries, on the theory that one
vote can make no difference-and
consequently they may wonder
why Jones was nominated instead
of Smith, who is a much better
man for the prospective job. Then
they mourn because party bosses
select the candidates, and give,
perhaps, choice between two in
adequate persons, and furnish a
further incentive for devoting
election day to holiday activities,
instead Of going to the polls.
Tin Cans and Politics
Well, in wartime, the citizen
cannot afford to let the Govern
ment do everything for him, which
is the basic idea of many of the
scrap wasters who say they would
be delighted to turn the cans, ETC.,
over to the authorities, if the au.
thorities would come after them
1t is even a worse excuse than that

ned to withdraw saw to it that
her name was not put before the
Montgomery County Congress and
thus did not face an overwhelm-
ing chorus Of "N0s!"
Casey even suggested to Mrs.
Byron that since she had said she
would not run again, she give him
a withdrawal statement to read at
the County Congress. Mrs. Byron,
however, demurred, explained she
had sent for Attorney General Bill
Walsh to help her prepare formal
withdrawal which she would later
release to the press.
That was the last seen of the
lovely lady. She skipped town,
but had her secretary file a for
NAL intention of candidacy at An
napolis five days later.
Meanwhile, the fight is getting
hotter. Katherine has alienated
such potent politicoes as Governor
O'Conor. Bill Walsh, Eugene Casey
and John McMullen. But the lady
is on the warpath and she has
plenty of lingo.
She is threatening privately to
open up several personal pasts and
some ghosts of yore. And she has
enlisted some tough and able poll
tical field hands, among them Geo.
Mouse" Grove of Frederick and
Mike Prendergast of Cumberland.
The State cannot boast more COM
petent and spectacular fire eaters
than these two. On the conserva-

URGES NATION TO
GET RID OF IDEA
I'VE CAN'T LOSE"
Justice Black Appeals to
Nation to Make More
Sacrifices

Hugo l.. Black, Associate Justice
OF the Supreme Court of the United
States, strongly advised the Ameri-
can people against any complacen-
cy or idea that we cannot lose the
war. The warning came in the
form of very striking address de-
liVered by Mr.. Black at win the
War" mass meeting held at Raj
eigh, N. c., under the auspices of
the Southern Conference for HUI
man Welfare.
Citing that these are solem
times and that we are at war with
powerful enemies who threaten our
national existence, Associate JUS
tice Black reminded the people
that we cannot win this war nor
preserve our freedom by relying
on the gallant deeds and sacrifices
of heroes of the past. "Our ances-
tors" he said, fought to make this
a free country; it is up to US to
keep it free. To keep this free
dom we must fight as one indi-
visible Nation"
Zone of the first steps to take
toward winning this war" he de-
clared, sis to get rid of the idea
that we could not lose it. 1t is
dangerous to think that because we
have never lost a war we could
not lose one Japan also boasts
that she has never lost a war"
"The people should know that
we are in grave danger of losing,
continued Mr.. Black, "if we do not
make up our minds to do absolute
ly everything that we can do to
defeat the enemy absolutely
everything that we can do, what
ever the hardships or deprivations
may be. We must be prepared un-
grudingly and without complaint
even eagerly - to devote ourselves
and all that we have or can get
to the sole and simple cause of
winning"
"Civilian pleasures, business
profits, special privileges of every
kind, must all be subordinated to
the one and primary task of an
all-out effort to win" he declared.
1--WE are, therefore, forcibly con-
fronted with the question of per-
sonal sacrifices. This means that
7 we must deny ourselves all luxur-
les and even many things that we
have considered to be daily neces-
sites in order to devote every
available resource to those who
risk their lives on the battleronts."
Complete victory can be accom-
plished only through the full CO.
operative effort and sacrifice of
! every man and woman able to
work, give or fight-the rich and
the poor; the brilliant and the
stupid; the white, the yellow, the
brown, and the black; the Chris
tian and the non-Christian; the
Republican, the Democrat, the So
cialist and all the rest" said Mr..

If you should hear one of the
"anti' candidates make a re-
mark that everything looks hotsy
totsy, and that he expects to be
in there at the finish, remember
that old story of the little boy
walking through a graveyard at
midnight. He's just talking to
keep up his courage, because all
the Organization votes he'll get
can be plunked into a stove-pipe
hat - provided, Of course, he can
find stove-pipe hat.

1t hasn't been SO many weeks
ago since the King and his fol-
lowers were boastins about their
ability to "take over" the orqani-
zation anytime they felt like it.
1t seems that since Ernest w.
Miller gave the WaiIin' Wall
crowd the scare of their lives in
the last election, the b'hoys have
succeeded in forgetting their
weak effort, and have come round
to the point that even though
their boss man squeezed thru
with only 300 majority, they
still have plenty Of punch - and
amt talking about that liquid
usually served at Sunday school
affairs.

Come to think of it, the Boss
Man wouldn't have grabbed
those 300 cross marks without
the assistance of loyal Demmies.

Now the Moanin' Marthas are
in there with few more candi-
dates and ! hear tell they hope
to push at least one of 'em
through. Apparently they don't
get around much, because from
every section of the city come
reports that this is the golden
opportunity the loyal Democrats
have been waiting for. It's gonna
be mayhem - or worse.

At least one of these "antis"
is already afflicted with a bad
case of "Perhaps-rd-Better-Q

stick in there and pitch. Quitting
this soon in the game would look
bad for the King. And after all
he's gotta make a showing.
We've been hearing a lot about
the strength of the Rebels, and in
way I'm sorta glad that they're
