If that purpose is to deceive
the enemy you let one of our

tell you the identity of that indi-

The Brighter Side

I HAVE addressed my parish

lence continues 10 hang over

people should be informed.

morale 10 permit the war cor
respondents 10 have the same
leeway in the publication of the
whereabouts and activities of
specific divisions and other units
of the service that they had in

their identity as we are Of his.
and in fact, often mentions il in
his communiques, which in this
way is about the only time our
people get an inkling of the
whereabouts of their boys.

not dumb enough 10 think that

A MOTHER group consists Of
those who are inept or un-
stable or generally nonco-opera-
tive and it is usually found that

fellows, but when placed IN an
entirely new environment, ne IS
unable 10 adjust himself and is
out of step with everybody else.
It is the old story OF the
regiment marching. with every
body out of step but Johnny.
These recruits may make
trouble out OF all proportion TO
the actual amount Of malad-
lustment they have.
As an officer told me the
other day the army doesn't hurt
a fellow with neurosis, but a
fellow with neurosls certainly
hurts the army.
DISCHARGES are occurring
~ AZ the rate of about out
of 1000 drafted men
This speaks very well for the
capabilities of the medical ex-
aminationS of the draft boards.
The length Of service for the
man before discharge is usually
about two months.
After a regiment has settled
down so that IT has been in
service for A year, the rate Of
discharge is almost nil.
The age of discharged men is
mostly about 20 10 "a.
The largest group are p years
old.
II is notable that when intelli-
gence and mental tests were
given, more discharges were is
sued on account OF the mental
age. and of those discharged
most were below 8 years of age
mentally.
The conclusion is inevitable
that when we get our army or
gained. il will show a very high
standard of physical and mental
ability.

physician?
Would il have any connection
with rheumatism in the right
arm?
Answer: Joint crackings in
middle-aged people usually are
harmless, although there may be
some rheumatism.
Stiffness in the Joint should
explain the rheumatism in the
right arm.

adopted a program associating n
self with individuals and organiza-
tions who have been notorious be-
cause of their association with
spokesman for fascist propaganda
in this country and who now in the
garb Of democracy masquerade as
genuine democrats and lovers OF
freedom. thereby compelling the
overwhelming majority of the
original Italian-American Labor
Council to form a new organization
known as the Free Italy American
Labor Council in order to safe
guard the principles and the poll

Alexander McAuslane.
Mosher declared that one of the
great responsibilities of labor Is
winning the war, but pointed also
to the necessity of winning the
peace.
"One Of our problems ALSO" he
said. is to bring about q greater
degree Of unity among the or
ganized workers and to draw into
our ranks larger numbers of those
still unorganized."
COnroy said that the Gel only
three years ago started with
about $1,000 members and has
more than trebled that figure to
reach the present quarter-million
mark.
He paid high tribute to President
Roosevelt and to CLIO Pres. Murray,
declaring that their personalities
reach across the border and endear
them to the hearts Of Canadian
workers.

al life. This task OF organization is
more urgent today than ever before
In our history"
Scoring the 18th Congress for
falling to back up the Presidents
demand to roll-back prices or to
establish an equitable tax pro-
gram, Hillman also criticized It
for passage Of the "mOnstrOsity
that goes by the name Of the

He denounced the sales tax levy

the senatorial travellers" who are

urged full and continuous coopera-

Union and China.

 Smith, D. S. O., and Senator MI. lard F. Tydings, D., Md. The voters overoruled him in each instance. Harry L. Hopkins tried to head of Senator Guy M. Gillette, D., Ia, in their mutual home state. An admin istration inspired sortie was made against Senator Frederick Van Nuys D., Ind, and there were runblings of objection to Senator Bennett o. Clark, D., Mo-, and Senator Pat McCarran, D., Nev. Senator Tom Connally. D., Tex. was not on the purge list but he suffered somewhat from presidential displeasure in the 1888 campaign.
 The mere listing of those men and their more or less unhappy exuer- fences in 1888 does not mean they will join the stop Roosevelt l1ove- ment if the president seeks a fourth term. But if any stop Roosevelt movement is to succeed all or most of them will have to join 1t along with most of the numerous company of other members of congresslnen who are loudly expressing displeas- ure with administration domestic policies.
 The Washington Times-Herald, for instance, reported last week that Senator Burton K. Wheeler, D., Mont, would bolt the party If MT. Roosevelt were renominated. Almost simultaneously the newspaper PM, is very friendly to the administra- ton, was reporting that many of the presidents close associates take 1t for granted that he will run again unless both the war and peace are won by next convention time. The winning of both so soon, PM reported, is not considered likely.
 Some political writers have at- tached considerable significance to the swing across the country just completed by James A. Farley. former postmaster general and chairman of the Democratic Ma tional Committee, who is judged to be the potential master mind of stop Roosevelt forces. Farley left the cabinet and the party chairman ship in protest against MT. Roose. velt's third term.
 Farley was in town yesterday. At the capitol he lunched with a group of Democratic senators. Farley said 1t was purely social occasion with out political significance. Clark of Missouri was host.
