NEW BALLOTS FOR
 MEN IN SERVICE
Town Clerk Is Preparing Lists of Absentees for
 Coming Elections

Town clerks through the state will provide unnumbered absentee bal lots and send them to persons in the armed forces, announced Town Clerk Mary c. Kilmartin today.
 The numbered ballots in her of- flee at the present time will be de- stroyed or sent back to the secre- tary of state, she said, as all town clerks were advised to refrain from sending them out to persons in the armed forces.
 Secretary of state pointed out the reason for this new ruling: fear has arisen that these who cast the ab. sentee ballots after they are re- ceived might, through the fact that the ballots are consecutively num- bered, decipher for what party the person in the armed forces cast his ballot.
 Four years ago, the original ab- sentee- ballot law allowed the casters of the ballot to see how the voter voted. The law passed this year waa drawn with the specific purpose oj making 1t impossible for the actual CdoCcIo CO lcdIu Ulllo. 4t COIlCdlllcl two envelopes: the outer one con. taining the voters name and, h. knew it, the voting precinct wher he would vote If at home, and ar affidavit or statement from hi commanding officer attesting to the fact that the ballot in the inner en- velope was filled out by the person whose name was in the outer en- velope.
 The law also declares that whel the town clerk receives these two envelopes, the outer envelope witt the voters name will be separated from the ballot; the name of the voter checked off against the vot- ing list. and the envelope containing the ballot given the registrar of voters.
 Under the new ruling, the absen- tee voter may receive ballot even before the nominations are chosen.

LAB GIRL

By. run" Barbee began" to un- derstand that Susan meant the number of samples that could be tested at one time. She watched while the blond girl expertly filled a series of test tubes with the black carbon, attached them to the com plicated testing machine, and made several intricate adjustments to the machine itself.
 But in spite of her busy fingers, Susan's flirtatious eyes never missed anything. She hailed every man who came into the lab, and the younger ones seemed inclined to tarry in her corner. One of these was the young man who had bumped into Barbee the day before.
 Susan noticed his frank stare at Barbee "Barbee, this is Ken Carter"
 Barbee nodded briefly.
 We've already met" Ken Car ter said in his soft southern voice. He smiled at Barbee teasingly. When she made no retort he grinned little deeper and walked away.
 What did lie mean?" Susan asked curiously.
 "He ran into me at the door yesterday" Barbee explained. Got some dirt on the suit I was wear ing. supporse that's why he re- members me-"
 Hes the best-looking man around here" Susan informed her. T mean when he's dressed up. Did you notice his eyes?"
 Barbee shrugged and turned her attention back to the testing ma chine. If Ken Carter was Susan Keeler's idea of a handsome male it was no concern of hers. Person. ally, she wondered if he ever washed his face. (To Be Continued)

SUE KELLER CHAPTER V

Promptly at 530 the next morn ing the shrill jangle of the alarm clock shattered Barbee's dreams. She struggled sleepily out of bed and tried to get her eyes open under a cold shower. The clocks in Wedge wood had been set ahead to war time and 1t was barely daylight out side.
 In fact Barbee thought she had the entire world to herself as she hurried down the quiet street to the car line. The only sign of life stirring were the birds making an early morning clamor in the trees over her head. To her surprise the bus when it came was crowded. She managed to find seat between an overflowing fat woman and man in overalls.
 She squeezed off when it was her stop, and walked hurriedly to- ward the gas mask factory. She didn't want to be late her first morn ing. She breathed deeply, glad to be off the crowded bus and in the open air again, and then she sniffed. There was curious smell in the air, swedish, slightly sick ening smell, the peculiar odor of carbon. It was smell that was to haunt her days and nights. David Kent welcomed her with good d-natured smile. well, see that you haven't changed your mind. Let me see-I believe I'll start you on the chlorogene test with Susan Keller"
 He led Barbee to a far corner of the lab where blond girl with bright coloring and bold eyes was busy changing test tubes on one of the hooded machines. He waited until the girl was through.
 Sue, this is Miss French, Bar bee French" he introduced. I'm going to have her work with you. Will you take her around and in- troduce her to the others" IntroductionS in the lab amounted to a matter of first names. Hey, Mary" Susan would call as they patssed a workers machine. This is Barbee-Barbee French" "Madge "a new girl, Barbee French" "Rowene," Carry" "Jean"-on and on.
 Susan finally guided her back to her own machine. Dave says you're to learn this test. So we might as well get started. You know what we do here, don't you!"
 Do %hnt hn 1a only the vaguest idea. Testing charcoal in some way, isn't it?"
 Charcoal to you-carbon to us," Susan explained breezily. You know what gas mask looks like that funny mask that fits on over your face and the long hose run ming down to 8 can of carbon in the pouch. The air comes through that can and the carbon takes the gas out of the air before it's breathed The carbon had better be good or the masks no good. See?"
 "Yes."
 "So our job here in the lab is to test the carbon against poison gases to see that it is good"
 Barbee experienced sudden faintness. You mean, heres poison gas herein the lab?"
 Susan carelessly tapped a large glass flask, filled with dark brown ish liqnid, and set in larger con- tainer which was half filled with cracked ice. That's it. We keep 1t packed in ice to keep it in the liquid form. It's very volatile chemical, if it becomes warm it turns into gas. It would be hard to control then.'
 Barbee's knees grew weaker. She hadn't bargained for anything like this.
 Susan went on breezily. i've got a lot of tests to make this morning, so perhaps you'd better just watch. Later when I'm not so busy, I'll show you how to do run"

ODT Tells How
To Maintain Idle
Trucks and Buses

A specific program for the proper
maintenance of idle trucks, schoo
buses, or cars has been outlined by
the Office of Defense Transportation
The following suggestions are from
the ODT report:
Idle equipment must be carefully
maintained until such time as it is
placed into useful war work 1t should
never be left out-of-doors or other.
wise neglected.
1. If the vehicle is to be run occa.
sionally, wheels and tires should not
be removed. Fuel and water also
may be left in it.
For cars in dead storage, follow
these suggestions:
2. To protect body paint, store in
clean, dry place, rooted, free from
water leaks, lime from white wash,
and sunlight. Cover with either
paper or cloth covers.
g. Vehicles should be lacked up so
that tires will be clear of the floor.
Keep them inflated to slightly above
operating pressure. Remove wheels
and tires and store in COOL dark
place. Pack horizontally, not vert
ically.
4. Bright work should be covered
with coat of light oil, vaseline, or
cup grease.
5. Close all windows to keep out
dirt and dust.
6. Remove all batteries to facilitate
servicing. Check gravity every six
weeks in cold weather, every three
weeks in hot weather. Recharge
every six weeks to gravity reading of
12800 or above. Don't allow GRANTEES
to fall below 1920 Cat so degrees F.)
Keep correct water level at each in
spection.
7. Drain radiator to prevent rust
Be sure all water drains from the
entire cooling system.

STUDIES In MAIN STREET DIVINITY
REQUEST FOR A MONUMENT
TRANSLATED from Sunday MISSOULIAN Augsut s, 1943)
By JOHN STAHLBERG

sons why we are entitled to monu
ment:
1. We do our work and pay our
debts. 1t is true that lot of people
do their work and pay their debts T.;
and most of them seem to feel that
it is the natural thing to do, that it
calls for no extraordinary recognition.
The trouble with such people is that
they have no imagination.
2. We have never gone on relief
We realize, of course, that it would be
impossible to erect monuments to all
the people who have not gone on re-
lief. But our case is different In
our case, not having gone on relief
is by far our greatest single contrib
ution to the public welfare.
g. Although we have rather enjoyed
doing dirt to those who, we hoped,
were not in position to retaliate,
and have been wounded and upset
when one of them retaliated after all,
we would still more enjoy having it
said of us that we don't do such
things. This is great virtue, for it
proves that we know right from
wrong even if the distinction has
only academic interest for us.
4. We keep our promises and, when
ever it is not inconvenient, we tell
the truth. This, again, many people
do as matter of course, without ex-
pecting any fuss to be made about it.
Some of them may even object to
paying us the homage which is our
due on this score. They do not know
how difficult it is for us to tell the
truth

SPECTRE OF HITLER,
THE BIG SQUEEZE

Students of world economic condi
lions readily recall that In the early
stages of Hitler's progress he was
given financial backing by the power
full I. G. Farbenindustrie whose finan
cial tentacles extended into Thread
needle Street." Wall Street and the
principal money marts of the world.
The swift double cross which
Adolph put over" on Fritz Thyssen
and other capitalists is sufficiently
familiar to need no further repetition
here, but even the enormous finan-
cial aid which der Schicklegruber"
received through the Farbenindustrie
from their connections in London,
Paris, New York and other financial
centers failed to satisfy his desires
for more, and yet more money with
which to build his war machine and
to secure additional funds he resorted
to outright appropriation under the
guise of "anti-semitism"
Since financial aptitude is a racial
characteristic of the Jew and because
the Jewish population in most coun-
tries constitutes a minority so small
as to be able to offer little resistance
to injustice Hitler's program of con-
fiscation of Jewish property could be
easily effected and offered quick and
substantial returns with a minimum
of consequences" for while Jews and
liberals of other nations might pro-
tnC srrstsa -
chine the bulk of the "Aryan popu-
lation" of other nations were inclined
to dismiss them with the thought that
"oh its only the Jews being perse-
cuted again." From the wholesale ex
preparation of strictly Jewish proper
ty it was only a short step to the
confiscation of the property of any
one with Slight admixture" of Jew
ish blood, and while accurate accounts
of the disposal of this property have
never been publicized it is not diff
cult for the discerning student to
make an accurate guess as to who
got it."
For some time it has been increas-
ingly apparent that capitalist leader
ship in America is exhibiting a grow
ing desire to emulate the policies of |
der Schicklegruber" and the specter
Of Hitlerism grows daily more dis
cernable. The old farmer expression |
that "the more a hog eats the more |
he wants" is equally true of the "hu
man hog" under a capitalist economy. |
The something for nothing" profit |
system exerts a subtle influence
which impells the beneficiary to con-
5tantly grasp for more, and yet more
and as his ill-gotten gains increase
he becomes ever more dissatisfied
with the Ito him) slow rate of in
crease and less particular about the
method used to increase his holdings.
Not satisfied with the cost plus
guarantees wangled from an acquies-
cent administration and the advan-
.ageous opportunities to acquire gov
built plants with the pay
ments for these plants deducted from
heir income taxes at the rate of POO
capitalist leaders put for
ward plans for a labor draft, the
irst step toward peonage, and the
ipecter of Hitlerism stalks forth with

,riation methods.
