SENATE APPROVES
STATE VOTE BILL

majority"
Rankin added:
If the President should veto it.
the chances are that there would
he no soldier vote bill passed at
all and the soldiers would be de-
riyed of the benefit of the free
air mail service for their bal
lots"
The bill was so changed in it's
stormy journey through the con-
ference committee that its CO.
authors, Senators Green ORD
and Lucas (D.-IH). voted against
it on the final roll call.
Their original measure would
have made an abbreviated Federal
ballot valid for all servicemen. but
that was far cry from the final
form of the measure.
As approved by the Senate, it
provides for expedited handling
by air mail if practicable-of post
card applications for State absen-
tee ballot forms. The Federal bal
lots, containing spaces for writing
in the voters choice for President,
Senator and member of the House
Of Representatives only, would not
be issued unless the serviceman
had applied for State ballot be-
fore Sept. l and had not received
it by Oct. l, and then only if the
governor of his state had certified
the Federal ballots were authoriz-
ed by state law.
Military and naval personnel sta
toned in the United States could
not use the Federal ballots unless
the governor of their home state
had certified first, that the Fed
eral ballots were authorized. and
second that the state had made no
provision for absentee voting. At
present Kentucky and New Mexi-
co are the only states without abb
Sentee vote laws.

German bomber force and to sue
coed, as in the main it has sue
ceeded, in rendering the Luftwaffe
incapable of bombing England.
In destroying or neutralizing the
terrible weapon of the German
bomber force, the R. A. F. has
won a military victory of which the
historic Battle Of Britain in 1870
Al was only the first defensive
phase.
The argument that the Allied air
forces must not be employed as
they are now being employed is
based on failure to understand
howthey are being employed. To
this misunderstanding some of the
spokesman of the air forces have
undoubtedly contributed. They have
dwelt upon the devastation of the
German cities. That is only con-
sequence of the battle, not the pur-
pose of it. If ali the armed forces
of Germany could leave Germany
and engage us in the middle of the
Sahara Desert, the battles would
be fought in the Sahara Desert.
The spokesman ought to dwell
upon the military objective that the
air forces have already achieved,
which is the naturalization of the
German bomber force, and upon
the military objective that they are
now attacking, which is the Ger
man fighter force. Then the only
man entitled to criticize the strate-
gy of the air forces would be
man who had some more humane
and equally effective way of dis
arming the German bombers and
the German fighters.
No one has suggested more
humane and equally effective way
to do this. It is not more humane,
and certainly it would not be more
effective, to ask the British, Amer
lean and Russian infantry to deal
not only with the German ground
forces but also with the German
air force. Yet in effect that is
what the DIRECTORS to the aerial
campaign are asking. That is to
say, they are asking it unless they
do not think it necessary to disarm
Germany, unless they think that
the Reichswehr and the Luftwaffe
do not have to be dealt with.
The. defeat of the German bomb
er force has struck down one of
the principal weapons by means
of which the German aggressors
overran most of Europe. That is a
military victory which conscien-
tious men can celebrate: certainly
they do not need to apologize for
having disarmed tn German
bomber force which has been the
scourge of Europe.
The defeat of the German fighter
force is OUR present objective. It is
the reason for engaging in these
immense air battles over Ger
many. If we win this battle we
shall then be able to destroy sys-
tematically until the Germans lay
down their arms-the factories, in
stallations and communica tions
which sustain the armies by means
of which they have subjugated and
now terrorize Europe. If any one
knows any easier way of defeating
the German fighter force than by
engaging it in battle where it is
forced to defend the industries
upon which it depends, he ought
to say so.
Now that the air war has ceased
to be series OF raids and has de-
veloped into a campaign to defeat
German air power, we can see
that, though the weapons and the
tactics are novel the military prin-
ciple is as old as war. The OBJ
jective of the navy is to disarm
the enemy at sea, of the grount

TODAY and TOMORROW
By WALTER LIPPMANN

The war in the air over Ger
many has reached a point where
it is at once necessary and possible
to say clearly what we are doing.
1t is possible to do this because the
strategic objective is now known.
1t is necessary because both the
clergy and laymen here and in
England who have protested the
bombing are conscientious men
who are entitled to a conscientious
explanation. It is necessary be.
cause the airmen should not be
sent forth if there is any doubt
that they are serving their country
and the right.
There is no question that the
Anglo American bombing of Ger.
many is in the exact and full sense
of the words a military operation
to achieve a military objective.
This may not have been evident in
the earlier phases when one could
still speak of the bombing as a
series of air raids. 1t was possible
then to ask whether the sporadic
bombing of enemy targets and enc.
my areas had in every case true
military purpose. The judgment Of
the commander who ordered the
particular raid may have beer
open to question.
But in the present phase, which
began some months ago, it is a
misnomer to say that the Anglo
Americans are raiding Germany
They are Systematically attacking
and seeking to destroy the German
air force. There can be no ques.
ton that this is a true military
objective. The greatest of the Ger.
man theorists Of war, Karl Won
Clausewitz, has said that "the aim
of military action" is the disarm'
ing of the enemy" By this test the
purpose of the present aerial in
vasion of Germany is military. L
has already disarmed the German
bomber force. It is now a cam
paign to disarm the German fight
err force.
We obscure the truth when we
say of the air attack, or for thai
matter of any other military oper
alton, that our object is to kill
Germans or japanese. That is not
our object. Our object is to com.
pei them to lay down their arms
When they do lay down their arms
we do not kill them. We feed them,
we bind up their wounds and we
accord them all the rights and
privileges of prisoners of war I'm
der the Geneva conventions. Our
business is not the killing of men
but the disarming of enemy SOL
diers. We kill our enemies in order
to disarm them; when they dis
arm themselves by surrendering,
we do not kill them.
That is why the war we are con-
Quoting is not murder. If in the
act of disarming a killer with Wea-
pons in his hands, the killer is
killed, he has not been murdered.
He has been disarmed.
The question then it whether an
armed enemy may be pursued to
his home groun wwllere he recruits
his forces and makes his weapons.
The answer must De clearly in the
affirmative. The bomber force
which attacked all the neighbors
of Germany was made in Ger
many, came out of Germany and
returned continually to Germany
for more bomb loads. Can it be
said seriously that the. home base
of this force should be immune to
attack because it is located in
cities where there are many limo.
cent civilians? That would be to
argue that the R. A. F. was en-.
titled only to repel the German
bombers over English cities, but
