 Unless the president abruptly changes the tenor of his campaign and Dewey backs away from the im' pllcatIons of his own statemeilt the le44 presidential campaign VIII DO one Co be remembered for ill"feelins'
 It Is logical to expect, also, that within another fortnight the actions of both candidates will be affected notiooably by the gnawlng doubts whichc affliet statesmen as polling day approaches. It is c matter Tor iaughing recollection among per' sons closely associated with Mr. Rooseevlt's i036 and i04o campaigns that Democratic headquarters bee gan to get jittery In early October of those years. It was about then four years ago that tho President abandoned his no.campaign pros gram to embark on tho inspeetoin tours Of national defense plants which Republicans SO bitterly as' sailed as campaigns in disguise

 This year MT, Roosevelt haS saia he will not campaign for reelection sIn the usual sense" His advisers, however, will press for on active campaign. AS the days pass the pressure will increase. especially TOT Mr, Roosevelt to Show himself m New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, In. diana and Illinois.

Roosevelt also Is be' ing urged to speak in Massachusetts After his New England tour, Dewey wifi make c swing Into the rich and politically potent lake states, just whore many Of the Presidents cd. gisers believe he should 90. too.
 At this early stage Of the political nentest tho bitter feeling already approaches that Of the final week keforo election. Republicans find fomfoEt in the fact that in the Pres. ldent's first political address he found it necessary to ailswer the gov' nrnoF on several polnts-notably the

 The relieving force was rushed forward to Nijmegen aboard ducks" amphibious barges. Parts of the road were dangerous because of threats from rowing bands Of German arinor and infantry.
 After the relief column got through the line of advance was cut by 90 German tanks, supported by infantry, between Veghel and Uden. Winding north, the long line of ducks reached the first branch of the Rhine ct Nijmegen and, with. out rest, pushed across tho river. Ono section went afoot along the main Nijmegen- -Arnhem highway.
 But we soon ran into trouble here "one of the officers told me. German es's were scattered thickly among the dikes. We concentrated on forcing our way with the duck. borne infantry to the west main read"
 As the infantry supported by tanks and Armored cars, advanced, radio messages were received hour. jy from the trapped parachutistS, only five miles to the north:
 Germans attack us again." situ: atIen bridge area worSening;" and some supplies dropped but more needed urgently"
 Knowing every minute was prec' iouS, the infantry pushed on under heavy fire An all-out battle was fought west of the northern end of the Nijmegen bridge where NaNs were entrenched with ee's, tanks and infantry,
 Bastlon Reduced
 The relief column attack d. knocked out two tanks, captured one and took le0 prisoners. With this bastIon reduced they resumed the drive in ducks but soon eflcounts cred more trouble between Fist and the lower Rhine, After another fight the enemy weakened

 Dewey renewed his pledge that his campaign against President RooseveltS personal record, however Iltef,se 1t may become, will not ias terfere with the war effort.

 French Units
 Farther south, French units of the Srd army advanced two miles north and northwest of Baccarat against diminishing enemy resistance.
 The Germans, having lost more than 1000 tanks to the Third army since Aug. 1, were pulling back slow. ly, flashing out at their pursuers every few hours, and fighting Q skilful retreat all the way. United Press War Correspondent Robert Q, Richards reported that the enemy still held substantial arInor east Of the Mosele and 0 smaller amount west of the river near Metz, and that another heavy clash of tanks appeared likely before the siegfried line iS reached in that sector.
 Southeast of Nancy, according to c German report which was not i'm. medlately confirmed ct headquart- ere, American troops captured Epin- al after c bitter street fight,
 Canadian ist army units on the northwestern flank of the Allied battleiine forced the Germans into c general retreat from the EScaut Canal to the line of the Antwerp Turnhout Canal in c drive aimed up Into Holland on the left flank Of the British End army.

 But observers believe the Germans will bo unable to withstand the crack sharpShooting of American armof. The German tanks, es. peciaily Nazi gunners, have proved no match for It, Gen. George g. Pattons armored trigger men, who wheel and fire if the shortest poS- Slble time after sighting Q target.
 One Shell
 Both the Germans md Ameris cans realize the time has arrived m modern warfare, when any tank ct A reasonable range can be knocked out by one well.plaeet armore piercing shell.
 Most of tho Americans iFi the armored units received extensive ! training in the American desert and they are quick to apply their skili, The best example occurred yegter' day northwest of Dieuze, The Ger mans hurled approximately 90 tanks Into 6 counter. attack, but llinped off e few hours later with 2i knocked out.
 Since Aug, 1. Pattons men have blasted i,008 German tanks, al' though c good share of this must go to tho French forces which are praised throughout the entire army for their spirit, dash and taste for attack.
 Many of these FTenchmen are nursing personal grudges against the Germans for crimes committed in tho past and they like nothing better than taking their revenge with c weil-placed 76.shOli against the iron of c Tiger tank.

Price With Banquet

A testimonial banquet honoring
the venerable Tom Price on the
occasion of his Tooth birthday
anniversary was given by Glacier
Lodge, A. F. & A. M. Monday
evening, the event being pledge
made to him by Masonic friends
on the occasion of similar event
in his honor two wears ago when
he advised them that he would
be doing business at the same
old stand" when he got to be 100.
For 70 years a member of the
Masonic order, he is the oldest
in the state of Montana and
probably in the United States.
Still hale and hearty, with the
typical vlgor needed by one of
his nomadic impulses, he once in
a while is induced to sketch mar
rative of his career as a world
traveller and a mining and civil
engineer.
Tom Price is scholarly. is op-
timistic, likes good coffee very
much, and accepts a good future
as matter of fact, feeling that
if he lived to be 100. it may be
in the cards that several more
happy decades are ahead of him.
Fine old gentlemen like him
shouldn't have to quit life's
grand old Masonic party.
