Nations to the full-time war employ
ment of every man, woman and
child. The Chinese have been he
roically fighting for 5R years. The
Russians, by brilliant tactics and
with indomitable courage, have
killed more Nazis than all the other
United Nations combined. We should
give tribute to their dead, for they
have sacrificed countless lives. But
their manpower is not inexhaustible.
We're In the War, Too, and
Il Will Be Won the Hard Way
This is our war just as much as
it is the war of the British, the Rus
SLAMS and the Chinese. We are send
ing supplies to the utmost Of our
ability to these and the other United
Nations. We will continue to do so.
But it will be our soldiers and sail
ors, and those Of our Allies, that will
win the final victory.
Elemental truths are often the
most difficult to grasp. Throughout
all ages people have tried to avoid
facing up to the reality that war
is grim business; have l0nged for
an easy war; and have hoped that
somehow, some way, victory could
be gained without risking too much
or without experiencing the stark
unpleasantness Of the conflict. But
all the wishing in the world does
not change the nature Of war and
its impact on all peoples engaged in
it, whether in the battle lines or at
home.
The hour for realism has arrived
for every American. We must brace
ourselves for mounting casualty lists
and reverses on the battle front, and

essential activities are out for the
duration and these countries are
fully mobilized-to a much greater
extent than we. On every one rests
the equal obligation to give service
either in the armed forces or on the
home front Why should we suppose
that we can wage war successfully
without mobilizing our human re-
sources with a thoroughness at least
approaching that of our enemies and
of our principal allies?
Army Requirements Come First;
Nation Must Get Into Industry
The needs of the armed forces
must come first. The problems of
turnover and absenteeism must and
can be solved. Each of US must
work to the utmost of his capability.
We must also tackle our farm la
Dor problem with vigor. There are
white collar workers in non-essen-
tial industries who can 60 back to
the farms from which they came.
There are victory gardens to be en-
couraged. More work can be done
by women. Farm machinery can
be pooled. Many steps can be TAX
en- to increase production on the
farms.
We cannot solve our manpower
problems by whiting down the size
Of our armed forces. The problem
must be tackled at its source. Every
one wants to do his or her share to
help win the war and must serve
where he or she can render the best
service. The decision cannot be
based upon personal desire.
With vast territories and resources
at their disposal, the Axis cannot
be defeated by blockade. Victory
will come from decisive military &C.

that made the enemy surrender. On
November IL, 1918, the Allies had
80 fresh divisions in reserve. The
Germans only had two. The Allies
had q total of 213 divisions. The
Germans had 1856. The Germans
were aware of these figures. Their
ability to reason from figures is well
known. They decided that they could
mot win, and they quit.
Now, as then, the enemy must be
made to realize that they cannot
win. Now, as then, we must make
them see that we are going to see
the job through.

Lynn Says:

The Score Card: When you plan
meals these days, do it with ra-
ton book in hand. Remember,
you're spending not only money
but points and that requires ex-
ira keeping Of accounts.
Plan meals in advance keep
ing in mind what you need and
what points you can use to best
advantage with it. Don't squan-
der points. If, for example, you
have an eight-point coupon, and
need something valued at six
points, try not to use the eight
point coupon except with any
thing which corresponds with it.
Since canned and packaged
goods will be at a premium, plan
those menus carefully. Don't do
without fruits and vegetables II
the coupons are used up-have
plenty Of fresh, unrationed ones

Adams Denies
 Suffolk Sole

Boston, Dec. 18-UP)-President Charles F. Adams of the Eastern Racing Association, Inc, described as mostly hooey" published report today that a group headed by for mer Boston Police Commissioner Jo- seph F. Timilty was negotiationg for the purchase of Suffolk Downs horse rack track.
 About a year ago, in 8 spirit of banter, guess, Timilty once said I'd like to buy Suffolk Downs" Adams recounted with chuckle.
 T said Come ahead Joe, make me an offer think it was just joke on his part and it never ever reached the stage of any sort of business proposal I've never talked with him since"
 Adams said that rumor has "had me sold out 50 many times 1t isn't news anymore"
 If I told you of all the bids every time they were made you wouldn't have any other news to print" Adams said. But so far, with all the various proposals and promo tions I haven't seen any real money. AS a matter of fact I don't want to sell. can't think of any other prop osition where could have so much fun"
 The deal closest approaching a "sale" came about year ago when a group including former Gov. Jo- sept B. Ely and importer Thomas Pappas dickered with the eastern racing group. The sale price at that time was rumored at about $2,000,- 900 but it is understood that a vast ly higher valuation had since been placed on the lucrative New Eng 1 land track.

IRUFFIN LOSES
 BUT GOES WELL AGAINST ANCOTT
BY JACK CUDDY lted Press Staff CorresuOI

United Press Staff Correspondent
 New York. Dec. 18.-(UP)-The lightweight throne room was more muddled than ever today after young Bobby Ruffin held Sammy Angott to a split l0-round decision before 1l,844 fans at Madison Square Garden last night.
 Angott, the National Boxing As- sociation's champion, won the de- cision after. one of the hardest fights of his career. Judge Bob Cunningham voter for Ruffin while Referee Frankie Fullam and Judge Bill Healy ballotted for Angott.
 The split decision was a great triumph for 22-year old Ruffin, who on October 4 won an upset ver- dict over Beau Jack. Last nights showing proved that his victory over Beau Jack was no fluke, al- though Jack later recaptured the New York state version of the light weight title from Bob Montgomery.
 Prior to last nights bout, neitehr Angott nor Ruffin were great drawing cards. Proof of this was the comparatively small crowd which paid only $3O,7S4 to witness the encounter. But, by their all- out efforts both principals made themselves stellar attractions. It was fortunate particularly for Ruff fin, who has non-title return bout with Beau Jack at the Gar l den, Jan. 2.
 Unafraid Angott, the victor, will fight any, body, anywhere, at any time. His Manager Charley Jones said, Ut sounds screWy; but I'm managing a champion who is searching for a worthwhile opponent"
 Angott entered the ring favored at Al, but Ruffin took over in the first round, and scored the lone knockdown of the fight, dropping Sammy to one knee for no count with right to the body and a left hook to the face. Sammy slipped to one knee later ill the first round when his feet parted in a wet spot in his own corner.
 It was see-saw from then on, with Ruffin bleeding freely from nose and mouth as he weathered An- gott's windmill attack. Ruffin was staggered in the third, but he came back to fight on even terms in the fourth, lose the fifth, take the sixth, break even in the seventh and lose the eighth and ninth. He rallied surprisingly to take the 10th.
 Ruffin, though outweighed-137 pounds to 1351a-seemed at the end to be fresher than Angott, because of his youth, 9 years to 28. But Angott-veteran of more than a decade in the ring-kept his rec ord intact: of never having been beaten in five years by any oppon- ent scaling close to the 135-pound limit.
 The United Press agreed with the decision, scoring five rounds for Angott, three for Ruffin and two even.

Y. Professional and National, Oper Champion who ruled as the pre- tourney favorite, slipped into thirc place with 143, carding a 75 over the rain-swept course yesterday.
 Generally the day was bad one for the professionals as the rain made them bungle ordinarily easy shots. Tony Penna of Dayton, O., was the lone exception as he put a one-o -over-par 71 with his opening day card of 73 to land in a five way tie for fourth place.
 Others who posted 36-hole totals of IA included Orville White of Winston Salem, N. C., and Private Otey Crisman of Coral Gables, Fla, among the professionals, and Will lie Turnesa of Hollywood, Fla, and Earl ChriStiansen of Miami, who paced the amateurs.
 Just Fair
 Sammy Byrd of Detroit, another pre- tourney favorite and winner of the Tam O -Shanter at Chicago this year, ran into difficulty with a 73 and a total of 145. Bob Hamilton, Evansville, Ind, 27-year-old, who finished third last season, sky reelected to a total of 150 with his second 75.
 Scores of other professionals at the halfway mark included:
