Since such a high re-

ought to have real respect for our

Mans Value Matt 1911, l2).
Property values are so well to
the front in the thinking of all, that
it requires no argument to convince
anyone that sheep that has fallen
into pit should be rescued. But
the sad thing is that the man who
would run for help to rescue a sheep
in that predicament will hardly cast
an interested glance at the drunk in
the gutter, or lose a few minutes
sleep over the girls who are going
to hell by way of our countless tav-
erns.
The plain fact is that we do not
regard man as of more value
than a sheep. Many a neighbor-
hood has been stirred to angry re-

The Soldier Vote

IN OUR OPINION President
= Roosevelt is over-emphasizing
the soldier vote situation. The
matter has been magnified out Of
all proportion by the Presidents
demand for an exclusive Federal
ballot and by the caustic comments
Of his supporters in Congress.
Spokesman for the Administration
have insinuated that those opposed
to exclusive use Of a Federal bal
lot are trying to prevent the fight
ing men from voting at all. The
situation was certainly not helped
when the President called the first
soldier vote bill passed by Con-
gress a fraud"
1t is bit difficult to understand
the Presidents motives for these
tactics. If an exclusive Federal
ballot were the only possible
means by which the soldiers could
vote, the Presidents position
would be sound, but the exclusive
Federal ballot is not the only pos
sible method.
The President contends that he
wants a method that will enable
the greatest number of our fight
ing men and women to vote in this
years elections. So do we all. So
do the members of Congress who
fought to maintain States rights
in this matter.
There is no issue as to whether
the fighting men should have
opportunity to cast their votes.
The only question concerns the
methods to be used in getting the
ballots to the men and getting
the ballots back again in time to
be counted as part of the election
returns.
The new bill contains provisions
which make it possible for every
qualified fighting man, whether
overseas or not, to cast his vote
in this years elections if he is
sufficiently interested to do so. He
is only required to request bal
lot from the State in which he
resides. If this ballot fails to
reach him by a certain date, he
can then use a Federal ballot
Thus the framework of the Con-
stitution is preserved and each
State retains it sovereignty. The
soldiers votes can be counted by
the States on the basis of existing
qualifications for voting in each
particular State.
Our fighting men are told thai
they are making their sacrifice to
preserve the American way Of life
The American way of life rests
upon the sanctity of the Consti-
tuition. 1t seems to US that we
would be breaking faith with oui
fighting men if we permitted the
Constitution to be abrogated, OF
even suspended, over a question
of the color of ribbon.

me by one who ought to know"
"At the Bari conference, there
were a number of parties which
seemed to agree, but they failed to
offer a concrete program or one
that there was any firm guarantee
would receive unified support. In
war, we cannot guess, we must
know. There is no definitely estab-
lished leadership among the anti
Fascists.
I'VE know there is no future for
any leadership under the king and
Badoglio. But we must operate in
the present, not the future. At pres
ent, there is but one unified group,
small or large, loved or hated as it
may be, and that is the government
which surrendered to the Allies, un-
der King Victor Emmanuel.
Must Be Reolists
I'VE have to be realists now,
and what is more, military realists.
AS Churchill said, what the. Allies
need are Italians ready anbable to
fight Germans. Such a group ex-
lists. Italians are fighting side by
side with Americans and British.
Although the Italian fleet has not
been called to action. it surrendered
without resistance. The Italian off,
GERS on duty are still loyal to the
symbol tthe king to which they
made their oath. We are perfectly
willing. we are anxious, that they
choose a new democratic symbol.
But until they do get a new symbol
to which the majority Of Italians can
adhere, we are not going to throw

there is something more that no off,

The present Italian government

people; it is brutal. perhaps, but eff
fective. A new government which
really expressed the peoples will

What Is SULFA?

SULFA, in the form Of powder, resembles
ordinary baking soda But It's harmless APP
pcarance should fool no one, for it is a giant

the blood stream unerringly for infected
wound areas and promptly and surely puts
halt TO the spread Of the infection.
You can understand how important this
action is when you realize that in World War
about $50 Of all wound deaths were caused
by infection or common blood poisoning.
Once this infection started, the chances Of
living we're slim. Frequently, the amputation
Of a limb was the only way to avoid death
and even that drastic measure often failed.
Today, SULFA is saving our boys lives
and limbs by thwarting wound Infection be

wounded men who once would have reached
a hospital in a hopeless condition now are

capable Of complete and quick recovery. In
the horror Of war, there are some bright
things. st LEA for one, certainly.

spoken in their own language, and learned by Charley even before he left the grade school.
 When the first world war broke, Charley Palomba, was eligible to go and of he went to the front. With the formation of the local branch of the American Legion, he had been most active ever since his return to the business worlc. He never forgot a comrade, friend or puddle who had passed on. He was an Elk and seldom missed the memorial service at the bier of a departed brother.
 We like to speak as we have found them from day to day. We try to study our friends for the benflt we get out of our deduction of their mind. Our view of Charley was all to his advantage. Tn the first place, he was kind and consid- crate; he wanted to do good, and he did do good. He might not agree, but back of it was a point of view which he was willing to present for argument in friendly way. And it was always our belief that in any | question raised when we were present, Charley Palomba's idea of the situation was generally right. We never looked for his death; it seems only the other day when he invited us into the Elks' club. We were his guest and the pleasure of meeting and greeting other members made us happy and joyful as we climbed into Charley's automobile and were driven home. He was just that kind of a person. His frisLls were dear and close to him. He was "chatty" and his conversation and points enlightening.
 There was every reason for him to live long life by reason of his l numerous outstanding and notice able deeds in the interests of man. kind in general. But his health has not been too good of late years; he limped on account of rheumatic ailment and it was Q severe strain for him at times to walk. But he never hesitated or baked. He was never too busy to turn out at the funeral, or forgetful of the respect of appearing and extending his con- dolence to the widow or family of one with whom he had been ''chum- my in the days before.
 Yes, Charley Palomba is dead. and none of us will ever see him again.
 But we can remember him; we can think of him; we can give him a thought now and then, if it is really our disposition to remember the dead once in while.
 And yet we are skeptical of all of this.
 We have seen mankind forget the hand of friendship so many times We are almost convinced that out side of ones family few of us re- member the ones who ''palled" and associated with us during their time on earth.
 If there really is a joy in after life for the dead, we wish it for Charley Palomba, our friend and confident in the flesh.

RY THE ouT LASTED

There was real sadness in the death of Charles w. Palomba of 888 West Main street, adninistra- tive officer of the U. s. housing projects of Waterbury. We knew Charley, and we liked him, from the very first day we had a speak ing acquaintance.
 The Palomba family was among the early arrivals of the Italian people of the city. Of course the parents didn't come here as early as the Baubys, but they did come to this country in their young days, married and lived to bring up well known and highly respected family. MT. Palomba showed ana proved his progressiveness by the very Suc- cess he attained, almost from the beginning. He was alert to the conditions of his fellow country men and negotiated for them ln many instances financial loans which prompted him eventually to enter the private banking business himself.
 In the meantime, his fine little family was growing up and the mat-. ter of their education concerned him. Everything within his means was offered them. Charley was among the number, and the edu- cation he received, made 1t pos sible for him to enter with his good father and assist materially ln the maintenance and success ot the business. With figures, Charley Palomba was a wizard. He was young. quick on the answer, and fast on the move. In his day, we dare say no young man Of his age ever handled more actual money: The thousands of dollars tnaI passed through his hands was never the temptation some times Workeo to the disadvantage of other young men in the same business: Bul the honesty of Charley Paiomoa showed and proved it in his every utterance. It showed i'll ms eA' nression and physical makeup.
 One was able to tell by the ac- tions of the man the truth of the statement as presented. It was this feeling of trust that prompted se many of the Italian born people te % to him for advice and guidance
