Industry, labor and the
American people in a united
democratic effort to win this war have
done more in a little over year
than RECOMMENDATION has taken many
years to do.
las far as winning this war, that
is not a party job and want to put
my shoulders to the wheel. If we can
assure our people that they will live
equally under the law, I am satisfied
that they will do a bigger and more
enthusiastic war job knowing it is
their law.

VTTASHINGTON - A new
wv American Congress - a
W fighting Congress - has
finished its routine reorganiza-
ton and is READY to get down
to work.
The voice of the people is
fresh in their ears as expressed
in the November elections "a
call for both Houses to further
quick victory in the war and
TO regain lost freedoms on the
home front.
The House of Representatives,
reconstructed completely from
the November balloting, indu-
bitably will reflect in its action
the mandate of the electorate.

Congress, being the repre-
sentative governm ent Of the
United States, fresh from the
people, should attempt to pass
laws specific enough so that
the people can live as a free
people and yet fight the war
through to victory.
"It seems illegal to me that
we must suspend democratic
principles to win a war in which
we are fighting for those prin-
ciples. We shouldn't lose the
things we are fighting for.

again we did the night life. Both
the Americans and the Russians
thought l must be crazy Ameri-
can millionaire, but in spite OF
trying my best, I still had $500
rubles left when I took the II ans
Siberian Express.
We travelled for IA days. In the
rich farmlands the villagers
thronged to the wayside stations
to meet the express. Great bas-
kets of pastries and fruits were
offered for sale by round-fdced
peasant girls with their heads tied
in handkerchiefs. The platforms
we're full of laughing, singing, en-
bracing farmers climbing or or
off with their arms full of sacks
and baskets, everybody acting as
