FDR IS silent
ON VOTING BILL

WASHINGTON, March 8. -P)-
President Roosevelt indicated to-
day that he has not yet made up
his mind about the new service
vote bill finally evolved in a long
Congressional wrangle.
The crux of the matter, he said,
is this: Will more soldiers have
chance to vote under the new
bill than under existing legisla-
ton?
The Presidents view was given
at press-radio conference but
ne did not express an opinion OF
the bill itself since he has not
seen it.
The point he raised has divid-
ed the legislators.
Senator Green ORD called the
pending measure more restricted
than the existing soldier vote law
adopted in 1912. He interpreted
it as repeating the 1912 laws
waiver of poll tax and registra-
ton requirements for men and
women in the armed services.

Three of the railway stations

Offensive Sweep
U. S. Air Force headquarters

was learned later that the fight

to their target, raced back and

The Lightnings were looking for
trouble while the heavy bombers
were hitting the northwest Ger

failed to find it, for the returning
pilots made no claims of damag-
ing or destroying enemy aircraft.
Second Time
The lightning dash over Berlin
marked only the second time that
daylight offensive operations over
Berlin have been reported. On
Jan. 80, 1943, Raj Mosquitoes, also

city by daylight to disorganize the
