African Front Too Late
To Elect Demos

WASHINGTON. - Representa-
tive Holland, Democrat, Pennsyl-
vania. asserted in the House yes
terday, over the Directing shouts
of several members, that had the
North African campaign occurred
before election day, many Repub-
licans would never have been
elected"
Holland said, "there should be
some red faces" now in the House
and in editorial rooms of news
papers whihc had been critical of
the conduct of the war.
"The critics of the President
have their answer" Holland said,
''in the well-prepared invasion of
French North Africa. This House
will harbor many such critics in
the days to come" by virtue of
last Tuesdays elections, Holland
declared.
Republican Thomas Ford, DEM
ocrat California, said in an inter-
view that the Army General STAFF
is to be congratulated for not per-
hitting themselves to be "bludg-
eoned" by a loud rancous public
opinion" into opening any second
front prematurely.
Had they followed the public's
advice, they might have gone into
the battle too soon with too lit
tie" Ford said, adding:
For timing, preparation and
smoothness in carrying out the de-
tails, the expedition to North At
RIGA is a credit to the military
genius of the United States and
her Allies"

Poll Tax Battle
Costly To West
BY HARRY J. BROWN

WASHINGTON. - Congress
men from the west may some day
pay high price for the vote they
cast in favor of the so-called poll
tax bill. Without exception, save
where they were out of the city,
members from the reclamation
states lined up solidly in support
of the bill which will deny eight
southern states the right to col
lect poll taxes from voters who
want to cast their ballots for pres
ident and vice president, for sena-
tor or for a member of the house
of representatives. This virtually
ends the poll tax in the south, un-
less the courts shall hold the new
law unconstitutional.
