BY GOBIND BEHARI LAL-

DISCOVERY OF a "yardstick"

Prof. Parry Moon Of the Mas

THE Russian and the Chinese
civilian populations will
pro % a b y show the greatest
number of casualties this time
with the British third, though of
course we have no accurate
figures on the Germans, whose
civilian casualties are undoubt-
eddy very high.
The cities of the japanese,
populated like ant-hills, will
surely have enormous civilian
losses when the vast power of
the United States is unleashed
on them from the air.
l have seen recently a couple
of documentary films on the war

courage of the civilian popula-

Stalingrad endured with amaz-

WASHINGTON. Oct. 26-Al-
w though Wendell L. Willkie
struck no responsive note in his
recent one-night-stand appear
ance in Washington before Re-
publican congressman. he struck
a most responsive one, with a
very loud bang, in the interview
he gave TO the New York cor
respondent of the London Eve
ming Standard, in which he
warned our British cousins
against butting in on next years
presidential elections.
For some time the impression

There are some at the Capitol
who are itching TO say right out

president in this country next
year is wholly a matter for the
American people. and that the
British would be well advised 10
keep their finger out of il.
IT is admitted by Democrats

could be more fatal TO Roose-

Officers
May Enforce New
Work Law Now

Raleigh-The terms of the Gov
errors war proclamation 4, COM
monty known as the 'work-or-
fight" law, are sufficiently broad
to empower any law-enforcement
officer-sheriff, constable or mu-
nicipal policeman-to initiate &C
ton against a violator whose
name has been certified by the
county labor mobilization COM
mittee.
That is the opinion given by
Attorney General Mcmillan in a
letter to Robert Mosely, head of
the Guildford County mobilization
committee. Moseley had written
for instructions on how to pro-
coed against Migrants who had
been certified by his committee
as violators of the war powers
act. The wording of the pro-
clamation left some doubt as to
whether anybody except the sher-
iff could take action. Mcmillan
holds that the term "officer of the
county" embraces all enforcement
agencies and is not restricted just
to those employed by the county
as a political unit.
