One thing you want to make sure about before you send your appli- cation is your eligibility to vote. Find out, for instance, whether the state you come from permits ab- sentee voting, whether it permits voting by the Federal ballot, and whether you have to pay poll tax. If you come from Georgia, you can vote if you're IS or over, but in all other states you've got to be 21. GIs from Washington, D. C., can't vote at all.
 Tn 36 states, simply sending in an application or voting ballot is enough for registration. You have to write home for special voting instruction, however, if you come from one of the following states: Arizona, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mis- sissippi, Montana, New Jersey, South Carolina and West Virginia.
 If you're from one of these states, or from another state whose voting regulations leave you in doubt as to your status send a letter to your secretary of state and find out if you're eligible to vote. Be sure to list your full name, serial number, and military unit. Tell him how long you have lived in your home state, what your home address was and the number of your voting district, if you can remember it.
 If after hearing from your sec- retary of state, you're still in doubt about your eligibility, consult the Soldier Voting officer of your out fit. One will be appointed for every military organization down to com- pany and battery.
 Additional information may be secured from WD posters, issued on the subject. One of these pos. ters outlines general information on voting, another contains data on requirements on voting by state absentee ballot in each state. A third is a map of the U s. showing every Congressional District in the country, and a fourth will list in addition to the Presidential and Vice Presidential candidates, the senatorial and congressional nomi- nees in states whose laws allow the Federal ballot to be used. The fifth poster outlines just what service men who are eligible to use the Federal ballot must do.

. If the above statement weren't so tragic we could pause at this point for fifteen minutes of raul cous laughter; however, Nazi bru- tality, measure for measure, has been anything but funny whether it has been ordered by Adolf, Goer- ing, Himmler, Goebbels, or any of the other National Socialistic sad ists.
 Herr Hetzler prefers Goering as a killer. Perhaps he is right; for aren't we told that Adolf is the man who weeps and loves flowers ? We wonder how often he has wept at the sight of the graves of thou sands of innocent victims of his bestial Nazi war machine. We won der if he admired flowers over the graves of these victims; flowers that weren't even safe from the crushing heels of German boots. Put Adolf and Goering together, or any other combination of the Nazi's "supermen rulers" and the anagram will always spell horror, brutality, murder.

IF YOU WANT TO VOTE THIS FALL,
 YOU CAN DO IT BY THE NUMBERS

Here's what you have to do if you're going to vote in the na- tional elections this fall.
 First, you're going to get reg ulation postcard application for a state absentee ballot. Fill it out, get it witnessed by some officer or sergeant in your outfit, and send it off to the secretary of state of your home state.
 Pretty soon you will receive a ballot from home. In most cases this will be the regular state ab- sentee ballot. Some states, how ever, do not authorize the use of this ballot and in these instances, special ballots will be sent to GI's who request them
 The dates and details for voting in states may vary, but they can be checked by consulting WD Sol dier Voting Poster 2, which soon will be posted on your bulletin board or in some other conspicuous place.
 OK? We'll, after you receive your ballot, you should mark it and mail it back to your state capital again. That's about all there is to it.

Q. On a recent furlough I con- tracted a venereal disease from my wife. Now Pm in the station hospital. Will I lose my pay?
 A. No. WD Cir. POS, A May 1914, says that venereal disease proved innocently contracted by a member of the Army from his or her spouse will be regarded as incurred in line of duty. No loss of pay will result.
 o. Pm with another outfit now but served with the American Di- vision at Guadalcanal. I have been told that this division received Presidential citation. Is this true, and if so, how can I get the cita- tion recorded on my service rec ord?
 A. All units which made up the American Division on Guadalcanal Dec 9, 1942, received the Presiden- tial citation. In order to obtain it on your service record, you had better check with your company commander.
 Q. They tell me that I may con- vert my National Service Life In- surance to a 20-payment life poll icy. If this is true, will my wife, as beneficiary, receive her payment in lump sum in the event of my death?
 A. No. The payments will con- tinue as they would have under your present form of insurance, on a monthly basis, their amount based upon the age of your bene- ficiary.

cases brought to light. In the Rus sian film of the Kharkov trial, in which three Nazi captives and 8 Russian traitor were tried for crimes committed while Kharkov was in German hands. It was re- vealed that the Germans now fea- ture an airtight truck in which in- tended victims are locked and driv- en to their graves while carbon monoxide gas from the trucks mo- tor suffocates them enroute. One of the Nazi officers on trial was guilty of having six women strip ped, beaten and executed while g five-year-old child covered gibber- ing in a corner during the "festivi- ties." The new robot rocket which is uncomfortable, and therefore use- ful only for harassing civilians rath- CT than military installations, is another example. of Nazi brutality.
 Yes, no matter how you spell Nazi it still comes out death; death to the innocent, the unpro- tected; death to everything not German.

VICTORY AT SATAN

F1O1OR1 Al 0kAAE AIN
 On July 9th, Admiral Chester W. Nimitz, commander-in-chief of the Pacific Fleet, announced, "Our forces have completed the conquest of Saipan." Against the strongest enemy yet met in the Central Pa cific, our forces waged a 25-day battle with casualties outnumber- ing 5,O00, 2,359 of our men hav- ing been killed.
 Saipan is 1,260 miles from Tok- yo, less than 1500 miles from the Philippines.
 CHINA-BURMA .-:..-
 During the past week, China, who had begun her eighth year of bitter war, saw slight reverse of fortune. Chinese, with American air support, threw the Japs back at vital points.
 Hengyang, key junction of the Hankow-Canton railway, has for some time been the Jap main objec- tive. Being in a state of Jap en- circlement, Hengyang was expected to fall, allowing the enemy to march to the coast and thereby di- vide China completely. Hengyarg did not fall. Instead a relief col- umn, striking from the South broke the ring and poured endorsements into the beseiged city.
 Another success at Lungsha blocks early aid from Hankow and Canton The Chinese have also re- captured Yungfend, 45 miles north east of Hengyang.
 On the Salween front, the 53rd Army, which originated in Man churia, has crossed the Schweli River and is battering the gates of Tengyueh. In this vicinity, it was at Tatangtzu, that the Japanese suffered their worst defeat in China at the hands of a poorly clad, poor ly fed and poorly trained Chinese Army. ...@..
 In Burma, the juncture of the Chinese Twenty-second and Thirty eighth Divisions about seven miles west of Mogaung has cleared the Kamaing-Mogaung road and given the Allies control of approximately 300 miles of the new Ledo supply road to China. American planes bombed an afrfeld at Lashio, term inal of the Burma road.
 The position of battered Japa- nese forces remaining in eastern India is becoming worse. A strong enemy force was routed near Che pu, southwest of Ukhrul, with cas- ualties heavy on both sides.
 The Japanese have been cleared from the Moguang and Fort Hertz Valleys in northern Burma and south of line running from Mo

 NORMANDY
 Almost simultaneously with Adolf Hitler's assumption of per- sonal command of the German front in the west, the Allies scored double victory in France. The Brit ish and Canadians captured tEe long contested city of Caen, the eastern keystone of the German position in Normandy. At the same time, the Americans, who had wheeled around from Cherbourg in new offensive toward the south, finally smashed into La Have du Pits, the German keystone at the western end of the battle line. By capturing these two cities, the AL lies have broken the whole German front loose from it's end anchors in the east and west. They have defi- nitely entered upon a new phase of the whole invasion-the phase of large-scale offensive.
 American troops advanced to within a mile and a half of St. Lo steadily along the entire 48-mile line. Several towns were captured despite frequent German counter attacks.
 The British and Canadians around Caen were holding off fierce enemy assaults and preparing for their next drive in the Orne- -Odon sector.
 RUSSIA
 The Red army gained up to 22 miles on a new 93-mile front de- signed to clear the last German off Russian soil Idrista and more than 1000 other places were liberated in this drive toward the Latvian bor- der. The Lithuanian salient was en- larged, the Drissa River crossed and the Soviets were within 28 miles of Grodno and only five miles from Pinsk.
 The new offensive imperilled the estimated 30 German divisions in the Baltic States. It was designed to eliminate the last 4000 square miles of occupied land of pre-1939 Soviet Russia.
 ITALY
 Along the Tyrrhenian coastal road, Castiglioncello fell to the Americans. On the opposite end of the Italian front, the British 9th Army artillery was shelling enemy installations around the port of Ancona. Both forces were within eight miles of Leghorn and An coma. The Germans continue full scale resistance on all fronts.
