Millions of fighters are counting
on YOUl Help them in the Fifth
War Loan.
The Glasgow courier. [volume] (Glasgow, Mont.) 1913-current, 1944-06-01

For him the terrifying grand eli
max of the war is at hand.
The supreme military risk
bound to be bloody, costly, in
American lives.
Our boys know this. They don't
have to read the h~eart-rending
headlines or casualty lists to know
what is expected of them.
They are in it.
But they are not finching -. not
holding back.
They will see the grim venture
through to the bitter, victorious
end.
And if, for your boy, or some boy
you know, the price of Victory is
death, you can be absolutely e
tain that he made the supreme
sacrifice courageously -. for the
cause of Freedom.

For us, too, the terrifying grand
climax of the war is at hand.
This supreme, desperate call for
American dollars 10 billions of
them i is to enable our fighting
men to carry through the grim,
bloody assault to a successful con-
clusion and Victory.
Not just American dollars - but
the dollars in your pocket-in your
savings account.
You must buy War Bonds-now!
At least twice as much as you
bought last time. If you are
already buying Bonds on a pay
roll savings plan, buy EXTRA
Bonds during this Drive.
Your Government is counting on
you. Your boy, and your neigh
boris boy, are counting on you -.
just as you are counting on them
in this fateful hour.

GERMAN ROCKET NESTS
ARE WELL HIDDEN

Londoners have been patient about the
continuation of the German rocket bomb
ing They have forgotten the boast that
soon after the invasion last June that
the launching nests soon would be fer
reted out and destroyed. But the first
type of jet fall yet with death and de-
struction. And now come the great in
struments of death soaring as high as
70 miles above the earth to plummet un-
heralded with a speed greater than that
of sound. And it appears certain the
launching ports are in Belgium, not on
German soil.
Now that the w rocket bombs are
being hurtled to fall among Yank troops
on German soil. speeding the invasion,
it won't be long until the nests are scent
ed out and the end be put to this last
struggle war effort. The Yanks will not
make promises-they will find them if
they have to enlist good old down South
hound to lead the hunt.

ELECTORAL COLLEGE
BUGABOO AGAIN ARISES

With the passing of another preslden-
tial election appears again the old buga-
boo of the electoral college as an enemy
of the rule of the majority in our politi-
cal set-up.
1t gives idle minds field in which to
roam. But it still is difficult to induct
this constitutional provision of that
charge. Nor can these SO exercised per-
sons use the previous argument effec-
lively that rightly distributed a % per
cent population vote could override a IS
per cent majority.
The country's population is moving in
too orderly a fashion for this campaign
stunt to be put into play. Rapidly the
western states are increasing their popu-
lations with unlimited room to catch up
with the heavily populated states in the
east and mid-eaSt. 1t would be necessary
to shift great masses of voters from, say
New York state to Montana. or to ship
much of the vests population to the
few eastern states to require that 25-15
arrangement.
AS long as the nation is divided into
states, and as long as the natural pro-
cess of spreading population goes on,
there is less and less danger of any such
rightly distributed voting population.
Nor could there be a congregation of
smaller states against the few big popu-
lated states to bring about that effect
The electoral college is one of the last
bulwarks of states rights. 1t is too deep
ly rooted in that principle of this govern
ment as fixed by the constitution to be
disturbed easily.
And with the smaller states having
equal representation in the Senate, there
is sounded strong voice against any
move to amend the constitution. Strange
ly enough the smaller states, which
would be the losers in any case of 20
per cent minority overriding the major
ity. are not concerned at all about the
whole business.
Only twice have presidential candi-
dates with a popular majority failed OF
electiotn Two presidents had less than
a popular ma iority and were elected and
one. had r,ther popular nor electoral
majority and was elected. Lincoln and
Wilson were elected shy popular major
tiles and John Quincev Adams was chos
en- bv congress over Andrew Jackson.
Only ten years ago congress refused
to act on move to submit an amend
ment to do awav with or modify the pro-
ced,lre. The only changes that have been
made since the founders wrote the con-
stitution was to remove appointive power
of presidential electors from state 'legis-
latures.
There are those who argue that cleo
ton of United States senator's by popu-
lar vote has not improved the talent in
the upper house.
The electoral college as an institu-
ton probably will stand under fire for
a long time

Hitler Mystery
Grows Deeper

TO prove Hitler well when single
minute speech from the Fuehrer
himself would do the job 100 per
cent more effectively.
While speculation mounted over
Hitler's fate Gestapo Chief Heip-
rich Himmler. who read proclama-
lion in the Fuehrer's name Sunday
appeared to be taking over more
and more of his functions.
The clandeStine Atlantic radio
station said Himmler has taken
over command of the Reich labor
service. formerly supervised by Hit
Ter himself, and had ordered that
all army propaganda companies be
replaced by similar organizations
of the SIS.
GOERING IN ECLIPSE
Hitler's former No. l friend and
designated successor, Reichsmarshal
Hermann Goering, also seemed In
eclipse. A Daily Express dlspatch
from Stockholm said the German
people were wondering why Goering,
as Hitler's heir, did not read the
Fuehrer's proclamation Sunday in
stead of Himmler.
The London News-Chronicles
stockholm correspondent suggested
that Himmler and Propaganda Min
lister Joseph Goebbels were keeping
Goering under closest supervision.
The mysteriously absent Hitler
now is at his Berchtesgaden retreat
in the Bavarian Alps after submit
ting to the operation, a United Press
dispatch from Zurich quoted the
unidentified German informant.
Observers agreed that the report
had an authentic ring. and would
60 far toward explaining the lcng
silence of Hitler during this crucial
phase of the war.
