CTS GET PROS AND CONS ON
 WIVES''PLACE'
By MARJORIE COLLIER United Press stan Correspondent


 Washington, Sept, 2i. - (uP) = DO you want your wife to work after the war?" = number one poser for lots of CTS - has been ans wered in one easy lesson.
 A war department pamphlet, one of e series issued by the morale services division to stimulate dis. cusSion in Army groups, plunges right into the heart of the problem;
 "The two sexes do not see eye to eye in regard to woman'S proper place some women prefer over alls to aprons"
 one CT to Another
 From there it's Q furious discuss sion between two CTS. Done of them wants tn eltitle woman to be strictly domestic: Don't forget that automobiles aren't the only things that need producing" he tells the other CT. If women don't have kids, prety soon there won't be any automobiles nor anybody to ride in them"
 The other CT might have re. piled, "So what2" but this time he makes e snappy comeback; How would you like to stay home all day2 A woman is more inter- esting, If she has Q job, too"
 The Army figures that these things can't be discussed intelli- gently unless the CT has the facts ct hand. The booklets give them the background and the discussion lead- CTS let the feathers fly.
 CT roundtAbles won't have to conf1ne their debates to purely do. nestle issues. The Army would like to have the soldiers express them- selves on international topics What shall be done with the war eriminals2" "Will the French Re- public live again?"
 Background of France
 The booklet on France gives the background of the nations history since World War l: "over 1900, 900 Frenchmen were killed in the last war and another 1000, ,00o wounded; women outnumbered men li0 to 100; from 1880 to 1890 the population of Germany and Italy doubled while that of France In- creased only one-third."
 In case the CT thinks the Army is trying to push too many facts in his face, he can read the book let called "What Is Propaganda2"
 The Army admits that 1t deals in propaganda by disseminating inc formation - but good propaganda Tt can be concealed or open, emo. tional or containing appeals to rea- son or e combination, but the es- senee of democracy Is that rival points of view have the right to compete in the open,

GOOD IDEA

There has been a new stunt
started recently in one of the new
residential additions where street
lights have not yet been placed.
Residents are leaving their porch
lights on all night long. The idea
has several features to commend
it: In the first place, the cost is
less than a cent day, according
to power company officials, so
the cost need not be taken into
serious consideration.
The lights are a protection
against providers and give enough
light so that the regular street
lights are unnecessary. Besides
that, it gives the area a most at
tractive appearance. The idea is
a good one, we think and one that
should be widely copied. 1t might
be a good idea to have every porch
light in town burning all night
every night. The plan has the en-
thusiastic endorsement of the chief
of police and his force, for there
are many times when emergencies
arise that lights are extremely
valuable.
Keep your porch light burning.

The death of Wendell Willkie
came as shock to everyone. Will
kie had many friends in this coun-
try who though they had never
seen him were attracted by his
warm human big-souled person
ality. During his short career in
American politics he became one
of Americas most colorful fig
ures. Willkie was not destined
for a great political future for
the reason that he wore no other
mans collar. He said what he
thought and believed and let the
chips fall where they would. High
public offices are not secured in
the field of politics today by such
methods. Willkie was an in
fluence for better politics. His
militant, independent spirit will
be missed, now that he is gone.

A good deal is being said and
printed about the necessity for
every person to vote in the COM
ing election that is just around
the corner. With most of the
world fighting for liberty it should
not require much urging this year
to get everyone to vote. We have
the best system of government
in the world and every citizen
should show his appreciation of
the fact that he lives under such a
government by voting. 1t is not
only the privilege of citizens Of
this country to vote, it is their
obligation and responsibility.

AS get it, both candidates for
the presidency offer the voters al,
assurance of external peace, an
assurance that the boys will be
brought home the morning after
the war ends, social security that
includes everyone, free transpor-
tation home from the big pay
jobs, high prices for the farmers,
jobs for everyone at top wages,
all to be secured with reduced
taxes. Gentlemen, if we get half
what we are being promised we
are going to witness the greatest
miracle of all time.

We hear a good deal.of criticism
because of the fact that this coun-
try shipped scrap to Japan. 1t is
not generally known but while
iron was being shipped to Japan it
was also being shipped to other
countries. During the years from
1888 to 1910 10 million tons of our
scrap went to Japan, 100000 tons
went to Italy and 100000 tons
went to Germany.

Sweden. Our guess further is that
she will get it.
