ENCOURAGING

NEVADA State journal
Federal expenditures for the support
of non-war bureaus and services are
gradually being trimmed down according
to a report prepared by the director of
the budget and released by President
Roosevelt yesterday.
Further reductions should be made and
will be made, it has been indicated. The
President said he had received many
letters from "citiZenS in all walks of life
concerning the non-War expenditures
Some of the letters protested against
recent reductions in appropriations. They
must have been written by holders of
positions in some of the useless bureaus
as it is difficult to see where any essen
tial service has been crippled recently.
The President said it will cost two and
one-quarter billion dollars this fiscal
year to support non-war services that
were created prior to 1882, which is 20
per cent lower than the 1882 cost. That's
encouraging, and his statement that non
war services created since 1882 will cost
approximately two billion dollars less
this fiscal year than in 1889, is also en-
cOuraging.
There are of course some non-War ser
vices fostered by the federal government
that are essential to national welfare in
peace time or war time but there's still
plenty of room for problem Republicans
in congress have never disclosed any de-
sire to chop down non-essential expendi-
lures because of the pressure put on them
in their own states and districts by Repub-
icans on the payroll Not all the non
essential jobs are held by Democrats.
Public opinion is gradually forcing the
curtailment of nOn-essential work just
as it will force motorists to obey the 35
mile an hour speed limit. The time is
fast approaching when bureau agents,
messing around in affairs that should be
shunted to one side for the duration of
the war will find themselves very unpop-
ular and they will permit their patriotic
instincts to lead them to an essential task.

(RlVerSlde Press
1t seems that this nation is not only
conducting war against Hitler but a
war against children. You don't believe
it? Well, what else can you call it when
thousands of landlords in American cities
will not rent houses to tenants who have
children? This is coming to be one of the
most serious problems connected with
city life and war work. 1t compelS a
great many war workers to live far from
their work, or in uncomfortable shackS
instead of decent houses. And it doesn't
give the children a square deal
The limit seems to be reached when
such workers are forced to live in tents,
and without ordinary conveniences, in
the industrial cities is that of a war
workers family forced to live in an old
automobile parked in a driveway. Father,
mother and two daughters have all been
sleeping in that car, because they cannot
find place to rent.
The nation, to be sure, is very busy
fighting a war. But surely federal and
municipal authorities and chambers of
commerce should do more than is now
being done to improve this situation. A
ban on children, especially, turns civil
iZation upside down 1t is not only a mat
ter of humanity and decency The coun-
try's future depends on its children, and
how they are reared, and what notions
they get of life and government.
And now that the government is freez-

is not likely that the situation will be

Nazis Give Vichy
Time Extension on
Supplying Labor

ON THE FRENCH FRONTIER
Oct. 21.-CU.P0-Germany has CIV
en- France an extension Of time to
November 15-With a possible furth-
er extension to November 30-to fill
the quota of 100000 workers prom
ised by chief of government, Pierre
Laval for Nazi war factories, re-
ports from France said today.
The extension to November 80, 1t
was said, will be permitted If Ger
many is convinced that France has
been unable to fill the quota de-
spite sincere effort"
The original deadline was Octo-
Der S. it was said.
WORKERS PROTEST
The longer time was obtained by
Laval in a conference with Fritz
Sauckel, the Nazi labor commits
sioner. 1t was necesSitated, the re-
ports said, because of the serious
difficulties encountered by Laval
which have taken the form of
mass abandonment of jobs by work
erS, strikes, and efforts by work
men to hide out in forests and in
rural regions.
Bombing of German labor re-
cruiting bureaus was reported to
be on the increase in some places,
it was said, workers have demon
strated, singing the Internationale
even in the presence of armed Ger
man troops.
FORCED DRAFT
1t was reported that the Germans
advised Laval that if he failed to
meet his commitments they will
forcibly draft workers, moving into
factories and loading Workmen into
freight trains under armed guard.
However, the reports said the
NaziS were extremely reluctant to
undertake forcible measures because
of the aroused state of the French
populace and the prospect that such
drastic action merely would incite
even wider disorders and revoltS.
In the first 10 days of October,
according to reliable figures obtain
ed from Vichy, only 5000 workmen
were signed up for Germany.

WE NEED GOOD MEN,
REGARDLESS OF PARTY

1t won't make any difference to Cali
fornians during the next few years
whether their public officials are Demo-
Gratis or Republicans. 1t will make diff
ference whether they are sincere, COM
nonsense men or partisan rubber stamps.
November 3rd is not far off now. On
the day the voters of Imperial county,
along with those of the rest of Califor-
MIA, will mark down their preferences.
Among some they elect will be men who
will have large hand in shaping the
future of the state and nation.
Times are critical today, and they will
continue to be critical for number of
years. We must win the war-that is the
major necessity. But, after we win the
war, we must solve a compleXity of social
and economic problems without parable.
Today that is a secondary problem, but
before the men we elect Nov. have left
office, it may be the major problem
The problems of today and tomorrow
must be met according to common sense,
not according to the dictates of some
stamp is no better than a New Deal rub
Der stamp A Democratic band-wagon
voter is no better than a die-hard COP
boss of 1880 vintage.
If an elected official is going to decide
in all matters according to the wishes of
his party's national headquarters, the
voters might as we'll save themselves a
lot of money and delegate to one national
headquarters or the other the right to
represent them in voting.
The two-party system is an integral
part of the American governmental set
up. Without it, we would be nearer
than ever to dictatorship. But the two
party system has achieved its greatest
usefulness when it has placed two candi-
dates, each representing a different
school of thought, before the voters. At
ter that, the voters are called upon to
elect the best man of the two. That is
why we vote on partisan ballots at the
primary election, and on non-partisan
ballots at the general election.
The primary is past. The candidates
have been selected
Now it is up to the voters to choose the
best men Not the best political party,
mind you, but the best men, be they
Democrats, Republicans or Mugwumps.

Germans in Order
To Punish Airrcn
BY UNITED PRESS

Japan denied Wednesday that
she was aping her Axis partner,
Germany, in ordering severe pun
ishment fer American aviatorS she
claimed were shot down during
Brig. Gen. James H. Dootlittle's
raid on Tokyo last April.
The Japanese decision concern
ing the Americans is an independ-
ent policy, unconnected with Ger
many Tomakazu Hori, govern
ment spokesman, said in a state
ment broadcast by Radio Tokyo.
These measures will be followed
in the future
Japan broadcast Monday that the
Americans-evidently fictitious be-
cause all but one of Dootlittle's
planes, which subsequently landed
in Russia, returned to their SHAN
gri-La" base-had been found gull
ty of "inhumane" conduct by courts
martial. 1t said heavy punishment
would be given aviators forced down
during raids on Japanese-controll-
ed territory and that they might be
sentenced to death.
Concerning Washington an
nouncements that all American
planes had been accounted for, Ra-
dio Tokyo said
"SkepticS are advised to inquire
into the present whereabouts of
Hyth and Harlow, who are but
part of the captured crews"
The broadcast inferred that Rob-
ert Hyth-or Heiss-and Lieut.. Will
liam j. Harlow had been court mar 1

The following letter which Ger
man Corporal Hermann Vigreb wrote
home but never had a chance to post
was quoted:
Il have nothing good to report.
For four months there have been
no meats and fats. Only one thing
disturbs me-my stomach. A few
days ago several dogs ran to our
line. The one which 1 shot proved to
be very skinny"
NOM STOP RAIN
The army organ Red Star said it
had rained without stopping since
Monday, that air activity was hamp-
cred and the mud was becoming in
creasingly difficult for tanks to
navigate. The weather was cold.
Sticking grimly to their determi-
nation to achieve a decision before
the weather wrecked their plans,
