Jim Farley was right after all
about Kentucky. He told COP
friends that it offered the best
bet to lick FDR if they had any
political money to invest. Either
Jim hasn't lost his political acu-
men or it was COP money which
did it - or both Some roliti-

Every day we read that early shopping
is advised. We are told to mail early.
And early means before December l.
Daily reminders are the order and like as
not when it comes December first we will
appreciate the fact that those who are
doing the advising were not fooling. They
don't mean maybe City stores are be-
ginning to announce the deadline for
mailing goods purchased. Christmas
card piles are already dwindling, so it
looks like we must get into the Christmas
spirit right now whether we like it or
not. Those sending their packages early
are advised to mark-Do Not Open Until
Christmas. One thing, however, has not
yet been suggested, that is for the chill
dren to hang up their stockings early.

ed a series of fierce attacks, the
communique stated.
In announcing the heavy German
summer casualties, the Russians
said that the Nazis, whose often
sive in the Kursk area petered out
July 12 when the Soviet army
struck back, lost more than 100000
officers and men killed up to last
Friday. Figuring the wounded at
the normal ratio of two and one
half times more than the dead, the
communique estimated the Ger
mans had suffered the million-man
loss.
Prisoners numbered 25,600, said
the communique recorded by the
Soviet monitor.
These casualty figures were the
most impressive yet announced by
Moscow for any comparable period
in the Russian-German conflict.
Moscow said they were inflicted in
less than seven weeks during the
gruelling campaign that has re-
suited in Russian recapture of Or
