dates claiming some support from
progressive minded people In the first
district the oracIe's crystal is cIouded.
A prediction as to the outcome would
be hazardous.
On the republican slate are three
candidates in the first district: How
ard X. HazeIbaker, Sherman w. Smith
and Edmond G. Toomey. All of these
hopeful gentlemen have served In the
state legislature and established re-
dictionary records In support of priv
LEGGED groups with little or no con-
sideration or effort for the common
people. If this writer should hazard
a guess to pick the winner of the
nomination, it would be Toomey.
A reasonably good guess would be
that If Toomey is nominated on the
republican ticket and O'ConneI on
the democratic, Toomey will be
elected with the blessing of Wheeler.
In the second district there are
three aspirants for the congressional
seat on the democratic ticket and
three on the republican. On the dem
ocratic ticket are the Incumbent,
James O'connor, VIM. M. Mccracken
and Robert A. Hammond. Appraised
generally throughout his district as a
Wheeler stooge, and having voted for
continuance of the Dies committee
and for "power trust bill" there is
considerable feeling against the pomp-
GUS o'Connor. Among the farmers,
he lost face by his vote on the Hope
amendment to the agricultural appro-
priations act, exemptlng landlords
from limitation on benefit payments.
or not, either of his oppon-
snts can develop enough strength to
overcome the Wheeler machine is
orobIematcal.
On the republican side there are
three reactionaries In the second dis
.rlct as in the first. They are: Byron
oeForest, noisy manager of credit
agency In Great Falls, Grant Ham
nond and F. F. Haynes. The latter is
supposed to be the leading contender.
Haynes served In the Montana senate
md In the last session scored Zero in
the percentages of votes
cast for measures of general public
interest.
Candidates for the other state Of
ices will be discussed from time to
line In future Issues Of The Voice.

Plans for cooperation in the cam

Will PASS
1912 GOAL OF
PRODUCTION

| COLUMBIA, Mo.-(FP)-The u. S
in 1912 will produce 10000 war planes
10000 more than President Roose-
velt's demand of two years ago, which
was called fantastic by all the pro-
duction experts except union officials
who said mass production methods,
subsequently accepted by manage
ment, would do the trick.
This was revealed by War Produc-
ton Chief Donald M. Nelson here
June when he declared in a COM
mencement speech at Missouri Uni
yersity that " we are today in the
position of men who realize that they
are actually doing the impossible"
The phenomenal increase was cred
tied by Nelson to "the men who are
making the goods, the managers, the
engineers, the foremen and the work
ers alike" but he added that more i'm
portant is the application to the
munitions production of the best mass
production techniques."
Serious support for the application
of these techniques was first aroused
by plan put forth almost two years
ago by Walter P. Reuther of the
United Automobile Workers (CIO).
Although the entire Reuther plan
was never accepted, it was rallying
point for unions to demand new pro-
duction methods.
One example of unexpected achieve
ment cited by Nelson was that of
plant built to produce so planes
month but actually producing $50.
Nelson chided businessmen who wor-
ry more about postwar over-produc-
ton than about the problems of pro-
ducing to beat the Axis today
"You can conjure up nightmare
FOR yourself, If you choose" he as
serted. "You can imagine that i
problem of producing for peace. But
do not for minute believe that
anything of the kind will happen /. +. :.
Poverty is no longer inevitable.
The sum total of the worlds greatest |
possible output of goods divided by |
he sum total of the worlds inhabi-
ants no longer means little less |
han enough for everybody. 1t means
more than enough /. What we are
lighting for is the right to turn such |
possibility into a reality"
Business-as-usual is taking a back |
eat, Nelson contended, asserting that
the profit motive continues to exist,

"A WALLACE
SPEECH Is
BURIED AGAIN
Controlled Press Obviously
Dislikes War Aims and Role
Of the Americas as Outlined
By Vice President; Hides
Stories or Attacks Speeches.

NEW YORK.--(FP)-T Twice within
a month has Vice President Henry A.
Wallace made great speeches dramat.
ically outlining the peoples aims in
| the war against the Axis and both
have been universally buried on the
inside pages of the commercial news
papers.
His first speech on May was big
news because 1t was the first defini-
tive statement by an authoritative
second speech June 8 amplified the
first statement stressing the role Of
the Americas.
In contrast with this treatment by
the daily press was the way in which
the labor press handled the May 8
speech Some union newspapers were
able to print the full text Others
ran long stories. There also were
many editorials praising and analyz-
ing the speech.
III his second speech Wallace de-
clared that America is building in
the sun of new day for a peace
which is nto based on imperialistic
intervention"
He spoke at dinner of The Church
man, Protestant Episcopal magazine,
which made its annual award for pro-
noting good will and understanding
among the peoples of the world to
President Roosevelt.
The New York Times treatment
was typical. 1t put the story on page

specific measures proposed.
Certain parts of the program
have been put into effect.
Others have been sadly neg
lected or forgotten.
Steps have been taken to freeze
both wages and prices = despite the
fact that prices had already advanced
more rapidly than most wages-there-
by forcing many wage-earning fam
lilies, and all families with fixed in
comes, to a lower standard of living.
AS to profits-there can be no two
opinions. American big business in
1912 is making more money than it
has ever made in its entire history.
Corporation net income was $6,700,-
100000 in 1889 and $15,2O0,000,000 in
1941 Estimates place it at around
5000, 100000 for 1912. Taxes have
been increased, but thus far no effec-
tive steps have been taken to reduce
1912 and 1943 profits below the fabu-
lous levels of 1910 and 1871
There is dispute as to exactly how
much profit is being made by particu-
lar concerns recent hearing in
Washington figured the rate Of profit
on specific navy contracts all the way
from to 1872 per cent.
Figures published last week by the
SEC on executive salaries for 1941
showed little sign of sacrifice. The
Consolidated Oil Co. paid its presi-
dent $155,959 in 1941. The same per-
son, H. F. Sinclair, received an addi-
tional $6O,O40 as chairman and direc-
tor of the Richfield Oil Corp. Curtis
Wright paid its president $175,445.
American Tobacco paid it's presi- |
dent S288,144, and two vice presidents |
$150,886 each. The chairman of Gen |
eral Foods received $129,999. The
president of Standard Oil New Jer-

dent was paid $10S,562; another was
paid $1O3,S4O. The president of Stand

Why Keep Figures Secret?

why Keep Figures SeCretf
There is a neat argument going on
behind the scenes between WPB Off
Gals and Army heads over the policy
of keeping the American people In
the dark as to war production figures
aircraft, guns, tanks, etc.
For months, WPB officials have
been contending that production fig
ures be made public. The Army, how
ever, insists that this would be re-
vealing military secrets of value to
the enemy.
The Army position isn't we'll taken
for a number of reasons. It's lead
pipe cinch that the enemy has way
of finding out what these figures are
anyway and the only ones being kept
in the dark are our own people and
those of our allies. There is always
a suspicion on the part of the public
that when production figures aren't
revealed, it's because they aren't so
hot which isn't the best thing In the
world for morale.
Those who are close to the scene
know that our war prOuuclion figures
are beginning to soar sky high. Even
assuming that the enemy has no
means of finding out what they are,
which is silly assumption, his knowl-
edge of these things could have no
other effect on him than making him
nervous and jittery. That in itself
would be of definite military advan-
tage for our side.

piece, Social Justice Magazine" has
been banned from the mails and its
publication ceased. But with relative
small fry seditionists and foreign
agents being brought before the bar

which has returned a score of indict-
ments in connection with its investi-
cation into activities of seditionists
and foreign agents, is examining the
books and records of Social Justice

The grand jury, it is known, also is
continuing it's investigation of at least
one, possibly two, members Of con-

The latter inference may be just
wishful thinking, or a good talking
point, but there is no doubt that anti

been growing the past few weeks. 1t

SEATTLE, Nov. 7.-Former mid dleweight champion Al Hostak and Harry Matthews, rising young boxer from Idaho, fought to 10-round draw in a return match last night with most of the action in the ninth and tenth rounds, when Hostak, the Savage Slav from Georgetown, threw caution to the wind and waded in with both arms swinging.
 Hostak took the last rounds by a clear margin after Matthews had kept him off balance with his left jab during the earlier rounds.
 Matthews had won a decision over Hostak several weeks ago, and last nights match was to have been Hostak's last fight before joining the army
 Before the bout last night he had said: This will be my last fight for Hostak. After this one I'm fighting for Uncle Sam. And this ones going to end quick. I'll flatten Matthews as sure as he's foot high"

Fredric March and Loretta Young, two of Hollywood's most brilliant stars, are teamed for the first time in Columbia's Bedtime Story" new Alexander Hall-direct- ed comedy which opens Sunday at the Capitol Theatre. Supporting the stars is a comedy-wise cast which includes Robert Benchley, Allyn Joslyn, Eve Arden, Helen Wesley and Joyce Compton.
 Hall, who made such classic comedies as Here Comes MT.

Kicks are combined with kisses to provide a mad and merry back ground for the gaily giddy romance between guy whose bedtime stories were always about other women, and a girl who kissed and told another man to look her up ill Reno!
 March appears as a playwright. Miss Young as his actress wife. They both want to retire from the theatre: at least, March says he does, too Miss Youngs efforts to escape into domesticity are con- stantly thwarted, however, and she finally embarks for Reno and re- These legal formalities over with, she discovers her "ex" is carrying his creative tendencies a little too far he even writes and stages her honeymoon night, so that a romance ends in a riot!
