Dear Mr.. Pottinger:
just a few words to say hello and
to let you know that I have been
receiving your paper which I enjoy
very much.
AS I'm out on D.S. detached
service) T haven't been getting it SO
soon So I decided to let you know
my new address so can receive it
a few days earlier.
The other day we were comparing
hometown papers among ourselves
here and The International was the
best. The score was for The In
ternational and for one from New
Jersey, and for two others. So
you can see that not only the boys
from the hometown think that the
paper is tops but also with boys
from other parts of the country. OF
all the eight boys here, not two are
from the same state.
While here in Portland met
Mrs. Oliver White. wife of our for
mer chief Of police who died while
back. She invited me to dinner and
we had a jolly time talking about all
the folks back in Nogales. met
her folks and Mrs. White says that
she sure misses Nogales. I had
couple of issues of The Information
al on hand and took them so that
they could see them, and they en-
joyed them very much.
I have been sending clippings to

.REV. .ANABEL NAMED TO
 OPA BOARD

Appointment of Father Ed nund Anabel as a new member of the Nome War Price and Ra- tioning Board, was announced by Mrs Mildred R. Hermann, Alas ka director of the OPA prior to her departure for Fairbanks on the first leg of her return trip to official headquarters in Ju- neau.
 Members of the board, who Mrs, Herman stated, have been doing fine work for the OPA pro- Agram in Nome, are Luther Dun bar, chairman; Glen Muncy, Joe Amarok, Mrs. M. J. Walsh and Earl Towner.
 We want the people of Nome to know that we greatly appre- ciate the services board members have done here,'' Mrs. Hermann said. "They have had a tough job to do and they have done it well. Because Nome is so remote from , our Territorial headquarters, we have had to rely on the board for the success of our program, more than in most other com munities of Alaska. We are proud of the way this group of citi- zens, your fellow townsmen, has discharged it's obligations,
 s'When the war clouds that have covered the world these past years are lifted, I am sure history will disclose no finer job of volunteer work than that which our local boards through . out the country have done" the Alaska director continued. "We have more than 5000 of these To- cal boards throughout the coun- try. Altogether, there are more than 30,OO0 men and women in the country who have made up this contingent of volunteer war workers. In Alaska we have Is local boards, and approxi mately 90 men and women throughout the Territory have given their time to this work. Each board has a full time paid clerk, but it is on the judgment of the volunteer board members that we have built the price con- trol program of Alaska. The sue cess it has thus far achieved is tribute to their devotion to the job.
 ''We want the people of Nome to know that the board is here to assist them with their price rationing and rent problems" Mrs. Hermann concluded. Tt is the little OPT in Nome. We hope you will make full use of their assistance. Feel free to drop into the local board office in the Fed .'eral Building any time you need information or assistance from the OPA. Miss Martha Jenner, the efficient board clerk, is on the job eight hours per day and at other ,tirnes when needed. She will be :lsslad to assist you in any OPA smatter."

Analysis of Returns in I8 States Sheds Light on Success of Various Systems Adopted for Services

and fourth places with io,o67 and i4,0S4 returns, respectively, for every 100000 citizens In uniform.
 New York, in fifth place, has the ballots of i4,S00 out of every 100000 service people already in the hands of election oficials. Pennsylvania, with i4,2i8 per i00,- 900 already back, is Q close sixth. Rhode Island, using the federal bale lot, is the only other state showing as much as Q 10 per cent return with 10,s40 for every 100000 in service.
 AVERAGE IS LOWER
 The remainder of the ls states line up like this: Virginia (eth) with 0,3e7: New Mexico, federal ballot (0th) with e,246; West Vlr- ginia (i0th) with 0,274; Maryland, federal ballot (iith) with 0,ibb; Delaware (i2th) with e,ee7; Mon. tana (iSth) win B,4e4; Kansas l4th) with 5000; North Dakota (lbth) with 4,06e; Tennessee (i6th) with l,e4S; Kentucky (i7th) with 1,6l0; Wisconsin (ieth) with i,2o4.
 The average for oil ie states Is i2,T4i returned votes per 100000 service people. For the Six states using federal ballots the average Is i0,b6e. For the i2 states using their own ballots the average Is li,b40.
 Tn computing these rates of re- turn, because no accurate figures are available on the number of qualified voters from each state in uniform, 1t has been assumed that each state has in the armed serv- Ices i4 per cent as many qualified voters aS the io40 census gave that state.

CLARE B. LUCE
 BOSTON SPEAKER
Roosevelt Has No Postwar Foreign Policy Says
 GlamOrous Rep.

Boston, Oet. 2i.-(UP-U. 8. Rep. Clare Boothe Luce, R,, Conn, will be the featured speaker At a COP rally in Mechanics building tonight as she continues her swing through New England in behalf of Gov. Thomas E. Deweys campaign for election aB president of tho United States.
 The glamorous eongresswoman comes here from Worcester where last night she contended that the idea that President Roosevelt "has q foreign policy Is Q complete illu- Bion."
 "The claim of his adherents that he has one is fraudulent, she said.
 Mrs. Luce said MT. Roosevelt's role as the man to win the peace was extraordinary" in view of "hiS failure, during seven peaeetine years to turn the world away from war and towards peaee"; his present espousal of Wilsonian principles after repudiating during the l033- 30 period "the diStinetiVeiy Wil- sonian prlneiple-the league of na- tion"; and his attempt to make foreign policy an election issue after Secretary Of State Cordell Hull'i plea that it Do made bipartisan.
 After several years of intensive study of MT. Rooscvelts foreign pol- icy" Mrs. Luce concluded, many people have come to what is an ia. oBeapable conclusion from the facts namely, that MT. Roosevelt has no postwar foreign policy. Beyond . few generallties with which nearly everyone agrees, the existence of Q Roosevelt foreign policy iS largely . political legend, Q myth, e fairy tale"
 Contrasting the aims and pledges of Gov. Thomas D. Dewey, Mrs. Luce said the Republican presiden- tial nominee has pledged himself to work for a consistent, coherent and strong American foreign pol- icy on which the great majority of Americans can agree. Tn graBping this cardinal fact about foreign policy-the fact that 1t must ex. press in straight. forward manner the fundamental conviction of most Americans; Gov. Dewey has opened Q new chapter of hope for America and for tho world"

'
 Washington, Oct. 2i -- (U.P3 - Republican demands for early Rir- ing of the Pearl Harbor disaster were set back today when the Navy decided to withhold until further study 0 report by the special naval court of inquiry Investigating the Japanese attack.
 Secretary of the Navy James V, ForreStal revealed last night that he had received the report but that he had sent both it and Q record of the court proceedings to Admiral Ernest J. King, commander.ln.e chief of the fleet, for Q review of the security clements involved. Copies also were given Rear Admiral T. L. Catch, Navy Judge Advocate, for an opin- ion on their legal forms,
 Forrestals announcement came with the release of letter to Ad. miral c. Oren Murtin, president of the cort acknowledging receipt of the report and the record.
 Tn his letter, Forrestal noted that this record and your report are each in two parts, one of which you have classified secret" and the other "top secret" Tn view of these deSig- nations, he said he had asked King to review the report to determine how much of 1t affects present mill. tary operations SO "as to require that 1t be accorded these high security clasiheations.
 The December 2 attack also has been under study by Q similar Army board but tho War Department has not disclosed If It's report has been submitted to Secretary of War Henry L. stimson.
 Both Rear Admiral Husband E. Kimmel and Major General Walter 0. Short, top navy and army eom- iYlanders ct Pearl Harbor when the Japanese struck, have appeared bee fore the Army and Navy Boards. The boards. however, are in no way conducting trials but are simply gathering information for future use.

 UNCONSTITUTIONAL
 The COP denies this. Governor Dewey contends that the federal ballot is unconstitutional In New York; that any such ballots used could have been challenged and ruled out, which not only would have cheated service people out of their votes but might have thrown the whole election Into prolonged doubt while the disposition of New York's 47 electoral votes we being decided by the courts
 Having in mind the continual debate on whether the New York law actually does handicap service people in voting, this analysis shows how the various systems have work. ed out up to 0 inonht before election day, when the figures were gathered.
 New Jersey, using the federal ballot, has received back, ready for counting, on average of 2e080 bale lots from every 100000 Jerseyltes in service. This makes oil other states look bad. Ohio, in second place, using it's own soldier ballot, has received back only i0.i26 bal- lots for each 100000 men and worn- en in uniform.
 The New Jersey result Is explained in part by the fact that 1t (and Pennsylvania and Montana) sent ballots to service people without waiting for requests, which gave on early start that may or may not be lost later.
