In several key states, including
Ohio, New Jersey, and Connecti-

high or record-breaking votes. The
service vote is expected to make
up the difference for slight de-
clines in the Ohio urban centers,
of Cleveland, Cincinnati, Colum-

A phenomenal registration of
new voters in Chicago and Cook
County, Illinois, meant the break
ing of the 1910 record by net Of
138,3 1866. Negroes in Chicago were
reported registered up to 80 per
cent of their potential voting
strength.
Negro registration in Detroit
and Wayne County (Mich.), the
third large mass-vote center of the
nation is reported high. However,
no official tabulation by race is
available. The total registration of
798,295, which was 76,088 more
than the record set two years ago,
included unusually heavy registra-
tions in predominantly Negro sec

cluded new high marks in Grand
Rapids and Flint, second and third
cities of the state.
All registration figures were al

the tremendous turnout delayed fl

Battle For Rome RACES

The battle wise Fifth Army,
composed of veteran American and
British troops, is driving relent-
lessly up the Italian Peninsula. Ad-
vance U. S. patrols entering CASH
no, have found that NaZi strong
point abandoned, and many Ger
man divisions are not only pulling
out of the Gustav line, but the high
ly touted Hitler Line is threatened
with collapse. Hundreds of Allied
heavy guns are subjecting the en-
tire Nazi line to an inferno of fire
and steel that has never been ex-
perienced by any army. This pull
verizing assault coupled with the
successful Allied landings near
Rome, is doing lot to break down
the morale of the NaZis, who are
not only being outmanned, out
gunned, but out guessed all along
the front. This. coupled with the
threat of an invasion across the
Channel. which | really believe is
closer at hand than many of us
realize, is giving old Herr Shickle-
gruber a bad case of the nerves.
Just how many carpets Hitler has
nervously devoured in the Reich
chancellory will never be learned.
especially since the last bombing
of Berlin, when this palace of
Nazi infamy was badly damaged by

To prepare our boys on land and

On mountain tops and jungle slime
To be invincible at invasion time.
Millions of men will be locked in
battle
Cannons will roar and machine
guns rattle
Back the attack to the very limit
Let us all plunge head long in it.
By buying bonds and selling same
We can place our front in the hall
of fame
Millions unborn will point with
pride
That the home front helped to turn
the tide.
Buy your bonds with a welcome
smile
Believing each one has gained a
mile
Nearer and nearer into Germany

Where life now is a He'll and also

Draw The Purse Strings

According to the National In
dustrial Conference Board, private
debt was reduced by almost two
billion dollars during 1912, with a
further reduction likely in 1943.
Meanwhile, public spending and
public debt scared to dizzy heights.
This is a continuance of a trend
that has been in evidence for more
than a decade The initiative and
productive capacities of private cit
izens have been increasingly dis
placed by government. War has
greatly speeded the trend. If you
happen to be a socialist, you will
be cheered by the prospects. But
if you believe in private enterprise
and the superiority of individual
opportunity. you will look upon ex-
panding centralized government
with a chill.
Shrinking private debts mean
that fewer new enterprises are be-
ing launched by individuals. OPP
portunity and savings are not avail
able to start anything new; old,
established industries are not ex-
panding with private capital. In
short, it means if the trend contin-
ues there will be fewer jobs in pri-
vate industry, which is the same
as saying there will be more and
more jobs on the government pay
roll.
After the war, the purse strings
must be drawn on the public spen-
ders or they will tax away our in
itiative and our freedom.
A movement has been started
among the states to limit the tax
ing power of the Federal govern
ment Fifteen state legislatures
have passed resolutions for Con-
amendment to restrict
Federal income and inheritance
taxes in peace time to twenty-five
per cent. Such an amendment would
not take away the power of the
government to levy taxes for need
I'd revenue. 1t would take away
he power to destroy taxpaying in
iustries.

RADIANT LIVING
BEYOND THE CHURCH
By INV. c. IA. GRIFFETH
Paster Methodist Church, csciiton. Nd.

Out in little place by the name
of Moose, in Wyoming. located
some forty miles back from the
nearest railroad there is a small
log cabin church which is visited
every year by many tourists.
The unique thing about this
church is that back of tlle altar. in
the place of the usual wall. there
is a costly large plate glass win
dow through which the worship
pers can see, as they sit meditat-
ingly, an inspiring view of lofty
mountains in the distance. Thus
is the handiwork of the Creator
ever before those who worship Him
in that sanctuary.
AS you sit in your Church and
look straight before you, what is ii
that you see? Do you permit your
thoughts to be filled with criticisms
concerning those who sit in front
of you. criticisms of the way they
are dressed or the way they live?
Do You permit your mind to be lin
tied in its thinking by the material
and the visible and the earthly? Or
are you able to make your thoughts
penetrate the things you see and
catch a vision of the spiritual
which lies beyond them?
The symbolism built into church
presents many deep
truths to thoughtful worshippers.
For example. in many churches
above the altar there is a large
round window, known as the rose
window. By its circular form. hav-
ing no beginning and no ending. it
symbolizes the eternity of God.
But whether your church has .
such a window, or whether before
ya: is only solid wall, even drab
IN color. let your eyes gaze beyond
he material wall and catch a Wis
on of the spiritual mountains of
God. those eternal truths which are
n themselves so vast that they can
lot be contained within walls of
wood or stone.

Casualty Report

Since the Japs' infamous attack
at Pearl Harbor we have suffered
1929 casualties. OF this number
32.662 have been killed in action !;
41,123 wounded; 32,662 missing,
and 29,S05 prisoners. OF these pris-
Oners, 1893 have passed away in
prison camps. | of course cannot
speak for all of you readers of the
Chronicle. but | think the death of
every American in prison camp
should be investigated at the prop
er time, and those responsible for
the cruel treatment to our men
should be punished and punished
we'll. When l think of how we
treat war prisoners and then reflect
on the reports seeping out of Hit
ler's European cesspool, on how
our men in some cases are treated,
it makes my blood boil.

discourage production, will in
crease supplies of scarce commod-
tiles.
Some day our economic wizards
may learn the wisdom of planning
for plenty, instead of merely ra-
tioning for scarcity, which is the
germ of imitation.
Months ago, in fact, two years
ago, the disparity between the cost
of producing milk and the selling
price allowed, was pointed out and
correction urged. But the matter
was disregarded and the charge
made that farm prices were re-
sponsible for imitation, regardless
of increased labor and supply
costs.
Well, butter is disappearing,
cream is thing of the past, cheese
is a luxury, and milk is daily grow
ing scarcer. Farmers are going out
of milk production in all parts of
the country. The national attitude
toward milk daily grows more
mysterious as supplies dwindle.
