Case for Vigilance
Washington Post)


 The Senate Campaign Expenditures Committee cannot act too vigorously too promptly in exposing every abuse of the Federal elections laws this the best of circumstances the conduct of national election in wartime in accord with the spirit and letter of the law and the standards of fair play is difficult feat Because of the extensive absentee voting, contests almost certain to arise in some of the States There is real danger that these may cloud the results of the presidential election That danger clearly justfies extraordinary precautions against any sort of abuses irregularities that may arise.
 Apparently Mayor Kelly of Chicago has not vio- lated the soldier vote law by causing Democratic campaign literature to be sent out to voters in uniform along with their applications for ballots and the same would apply in the of Michigan author ties who accused of sending out Republican appeals along with ballot applications. This Federal law puts restraint upon the mailing of political propaganda individual members of the armed forces so long as the Government doesn't sponsor pay for it. But it is certainly contrary to the spirit of the law to cucumber ballot application with partisan literature Have the States regulations to prevent sudh obvious perversion of the absentee voting privilege? The effect is to put the machinery of voting to work for partisan purposes, and that of course agrantly interferes with free choice of the people.
 The States themselves should be expected to exer else special vigilance to that this election machin cry is not perverted to partisan advantage They fought hard enough keep full control of voting by service personnel in their own hands They have a grave obligation to the Nation as well to their own people to make that this voting experiment is not debauched and that it does not give rise to confusion in the selection of national officials in this critical period.

SATURDAY, OCTOBER 21

SATURDAY, OCTOBER 21
 After the early morning, adverse aspects rule today. Routine pro- grams that include recreation should be followed. HEART AND HOME: Girls should be cautious in accepting as friends new acquaintances, especi- ally men, whom they meet under this configuration. Many nasty marriages of wartime will prove unfortunate as everyday living brings disillusionment.
 BUSINESS AFFAIRS: Consumer buying will continue at a high ievel and again a big Christmas trade is forecast. Optimism regard ing the future will be expressed in generous investments in home com forts.
 NATIONAL ISS UES: States rights will be subject to many new interpretations as campaign orators appeal to voters. A political sensation is foresoen.
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIR Heavy naval and air engagements in the Far East are forecast for today. An aspect of Jupiter is for tunate for India, which is to bene- fit through diplomatic concessions. Gandhi will be helpful in certain United Nations aims.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of year of pro- motion and success. There should be persistent effort and untiring initiative.
 Children born on this day prob ably will be idealistic and aspiring. They should be trained in practical business methods.

LAME-DUCK DIES

Lame Duck Congressman Martin Dies may do well practicing law back in Orange, Texas, but he's a long way from being the hero in the rest of Texas
 Strongest demonstration against Dies came at the knock-down, drag-out Democratic State Conven- tion, which uprooted the anti Roosevelt electors headed by Jess H. Jones nephew. George Butler, replacing it with delegation of sworn Roosevelt supporters.
 Butler arranged for Dies to be present, planned to have the bull voiced Texas Sherlock Holmes" oppose the Roosevelt forces with a long Red-baiting speech on "Bol- shevism in the Nations Capitol under FDR." However, when Butler called Dies to the platform the crowd booed him.
 Dies was the only man at the convention to be booed off the stage Dies stood there, listened to the hooting for 10 minutes, finally shrugged his shoulders and sheepishly walked off the stage.
 Next rebuff given Dies resulted from an effort on the part of Gov ernor Coke Stevenson'S cronieS to make Dies a regent of the Uni versity of Texas. However, Dr. Homer Price Rainey, president of the university, threatened to raise so much cain if Dies were desig- mated a regent that the move has now about been squelched.
 NOTE Several years ago, Dies called the university a "hotbed of Communism because one college teacher 10 years before had be-

FM RADIO BROADCASTING

Testifying before the Federal Communications Commission re- garding postwar radio frequencies, J. E. Brown of the Zenith Radio Corporation warned that changing the frequencies for frequency meditation broadcasting would make the manufacture of FM re- ceiving sets considerably more ex- pensive. He spoke first in terms of one or two dollars additional cost, then remarked that the public would pay fifteen or twenty dol lars more per set.'

ARTILLERY SUPPORT A
 PROBLEM

The row between the two Gen. eral Smiths on the island of Saipan ' is not dead yet, is now having re- verberations on the island of Peli- liu, where U. s. troops are still having a tough time.
 The issue on Saipan was partly one of field artillery and sufficient preparation before infantry attacks on the enemy. Major General Ralph Smith of the Army wanted to save his men, wait for artillery to pound the enemy's lines, then advance Marine Lieut.. General Holland Smith followed the motto that the Marines could go in any where.
 The Navy backed up the Marine Corps general, but after the Army's Smith was transferred, the Army backed him up too. He was given a division in France.
 Now, without any personal bick- ering, the same problem of suffi- cient artillery is reported to be causing trouble-and casualties on other Pacific islands. When troops first land, warships ashore can supply plenty of artillery But after the troops land, it is dan gerous for the warships to keep firing for fear of hitting our own men. So for a time the landing parties have to fight with nothing more than machine guns and tank artillery.
 Even after they land and are established, however, a lot of criti- cism has floated back about lack of adequate artillery.
 Some military men feel that this is one reason for the very high casualties on the Pacific islands. Another reason, of course, is Japa- nese determination to fight until they die.

continue unabated They will continue for long period of time after the fighting in the Far East is over and after peace comes again.
 The humanitarian services of this agency, both at home and abroad are of tremendous importance both to civilian and military morale. They must be continued until every man is returned to his home, until every is able to take his place in peace time economy
 It would be tragic, indeed, if we were to desert the soldiers, sailors and marines who have served us we'll simply because their fighting days have ended

Il
Taxes are a little. out Of our line
but perhaps we can be of some
assistance to you by telling YOU
what we have learned atCut the,
federal tax on the transportation
CT property particularly as 1t ap-
plies to hauling OF hay
Generally, when farmers inform
us that a regulation il working a.
hardship, we make an effort to do
something about it. In this case.
we are told by the top internal
revenue man in the county that
it would take an act of congress to
give any relief. The chances Of
changing congress mind by war
board action are pretty slim. Some
other approach probably would be
better
The chief gripe registered with
us is that farmers have to pay a
transportation tax on the services
of the swampers along the line
! from the field to the COW. There
has been an official ruling the
swampers service is an "acce5SC rial
service" and is, therefore. part OF
the transportation.
TRANSPORTATION is defined in tie
| regulation as the movement OF
property by a person engaged in
/ the business of transporting prop
erty for hire, including interstate,
/ intrastate and intracity or other
/ &c W.
| ing, ferrying, switching, etc. In
general, it includes accecssorial
services furnished in connection
with a transportation movement,
such as loading, blocking and stak-
/ ing. elevation. transfer in transit,
ventilation. refrigeration, icing,
storage, demurragc, lighterage.
trimming of cargo in vessels. whalf-
age, handling, feeding and watering
live stock. and similar services and
facilities"
The matter of paying a tax on
the services CT the sWamper, then,
is net one of those incidental and
unforeseen things: it is the intent
of congress.
Clearly. the tax does rot apply
to the farmer who moves his pro-
ducc exclusively in trucks he owns,
hims elf, and it does not apply TO
the movement CT property by
horsc-dr;'''- ohicleS.
The arCve , cfinitiCn of trans
portation as including "other local
movements" seems to confirm that
the tax applies TO roadsiding and
earring.
One ray of light in the whole
deal is that when you file your in
ccme tax. you can deduct the tranf-
portation tax from your taxable
income That has the same effect
as getting part of it back-maybo

Senator Smith of South Carolina wants
the special Federal tax on coored oleo-
margarine repealed. He considers it a
''damnable protective tariff in favor Of
butter-a tariff which is made worse by
the fact that many States also tax oleo
in an attempt to keep it off their mar
ketS =.
The fact is that the battle against oleo,
cOlored or white, is already lost, though
dairymen will not yet admit it. The wise
farmer will begin now to condition HIM
self to oleo's inevitable rise. In the long
run. we doubt that dairy interests will
suffer. since the demand for fluid milk
and natural cheese is rising. The reason
for that is . . the consumer now realizes

WORDS AND MUSIC
Jacksonville Register-Pai aronian)

Jacksonville RegiSter-Pa jarOnianD
One of the remarkable things about
this war is the fact that no song has
come out of it to compare with the great
tunes of World War | such as "Over
There and ITS Long Way to Upper
ary."
1t goes without saying that song
which is to have a lasting popularity
must Be more than merely a combina-
tion of words and notes. 1t must express
the deep feelings and emotions which the
war has created.
Of course, we have had war songs gal
ore since the fighting began. Many of
them enjoyed popularity-for a time.
But how manv of them can you readily
recall now? Or how manv do you think
will be remembered when the war is over?
What is the answer? Have our song
writer's lost their touch? Isn't there
George NJ. Cohan Of today who can with
his magic set the nation and the world
to singing a song that will endure
Irving Berlin has given us some catchy
melodies in his production "This is the
ARMY" but are they the lasting type?
Possibly his hymn-like "GOd Bless Amer
ica" will be the song most identified with
this war Even that. however. was intro
ducad on the radio long before Pearl
Harbor.
So if we are to have great song
written in this war. it looks like the song
writer's will have to get busy. But it may
he that too many writer's are too busy
fighting to have time for words and
music.
