BY GOULD LINCOLN.

When the men are away, will
more women vote? And in how
much larger numbers than In
past elections? These are ques-
tions which are exercising the
managers of both the Democratic
and Republican parties. And
both are doing their best to get
the women to come out in large
numbers and vote for their own
particular candidates.
Millions of men voters are in
the armed forces, many OF whom
will not have a chance to vote,
because it will be impossible to
get absentee ballots to them in
time. Others won't bother with
voting when they are giving all
their thoughts and labor to the
war effort. Many men have gone
from one State to another, or
into strange districts in their
own States. to work in the war
plants, and will be unable to
vote.
Here is a chance for the women
to take over, and to determine
whether the Democrats are to
retain control of the House, for
example, and whether Governors
elected in the various States shall
be Democrat or Republican.
According to the figures of the
Census Bureau, there are 3d.
752,016 women 81 years of age
and over in this country, citizens
by birth or naturalization, who
are potential voters. The number
of men potential voters are 40,-
1,435. This makes a grand total
Of 7s,863,451 potential voters.
In the last presidential elec-
ton in 1910, the total vote cast
was 49,815,312. In other words,
there are some 100000 900 poten-
tial voters who did not, for one
reason or another, cast ballots
in that election.
The census has not broken
down the voters according to sex.
However, there are estimates
made by political committees
that the vote OF the women runs
up as high as Al or even 81 per
cent Of the total, depending on
the States. In some of the States
the percentage of women voters
has been less.
Special Attention on Women.
This year, however, 1t is esti-
mated that women will cast 81
per cent of the vote in the COM
ing election in Illinois. In New
York, Pennsylvania, and Massa-
chusetts 1t is estimated that the
percentage of women voters will
equal or probably outnumber the
men voters. Obviously it be-
hooves the political managers to
give all the attention they can
to organizing and getting out the
woman vote this year.
The woman's division Of the
Republican National Committee
is headed by Miss Marian E. Mar
tin of Bangor, Me. The Demo-
cratic National Committee has as
the head of a similar division
Mrs. Theodore Tillett of North
Carolina. Both are capable or
ganizers and have been at this
Job of rounding up the women
for some time.
This year not only do the party
leaders have to rely on the votes

This Changing World
Epic StoIingrod Defense Believed Near End;
kozis Already Shifting PIones to Other Areas

taken into consideration that the
marshes which separate Astra-
khan from stalingrad may be
frozen by the time the Nazis
begin to attack the city.
The next few weeks will m-
doubtedly see much spectacular
fighting in the Caucasian area.
But from the strategic point Of
view 1t will have only relative
bearing on the general situation
on that front for the rest Of the
year.
Regardless of whether stalin-
grad Is taken, the main pipe
lines and oil fields in the North =
ern Caucasus are already in
Nazi hands. Hence, the Russian
planes, tanks and motorized units
will suffer. There will be a Sc
rious food shortage in the Rus
sian Army. but that is less conse-
quential, since the Russian peas
ant and worker can live and fight
on an extremely meager diet.
The Nazis, too, will have a dif-
ficult time supplying their forces
In the heart Of Russia. Regard
less Of weather and other condi-
tions they will be ceaselessly
harassed by the Soviet forces.
There is no food of any kind
either in the Ukraine or between
the Don and the Volga, where
the inhabitants have destroyed
everything which might be Of
use to the enemy, even at the
risk Of starving themselves.
Difficulties Facing Nasis.
Every ounce of food and every
piece Of clothing must be brought
to the Nazis from Poland-more
than 1000 miles away-over i'm
passable roads and through the
habitat of q thoroughly hostile
population, which is willing to
sacrifice life itself in order to
destroy Nazi transports.
How difficult it is to fight guer-
rillas-to say nothing of the reg
ular army, which has not been
pulverized as Hitler hoped-can
be seen from the experiences of
the Axis forces in Yugoslavia,
where Hungarian. Bulgarian, Ital-
ian and Nad regiments are being
decimated by the Serbian Chet-
niks, under Gen. Draja Mihail-
ovic. The difficulties which con-
front the Nazis in Russia are q
hundredfold greater than In
Yugoslavia.
So far the Nazis have succeeded
in avoiding q second front in
Western Europe. Last winter they
undertook no startling action
there while they were parrying
Soviet offensives. This situation
will change this year, in the
opinion Of qualified military au-
thorities. The Germans must
strike in.the Mediterranean basin,
and there are indications that
the blow will come within four
or five weeks. They will be met
In Egypt and the rest of the Near
East by much more formidable
opposition than would have been
the case last year.
While the Germans effort in
that area must be powerful, they
will have to maintain an equally
important military force on the
Russian front. And ali this, re-
gardless Of the eventual fate of
Stalingrad, presaees little good
for the Axis in 1913.

Bradley, doubtful that fans want
the game in wartime, put out a
