how four times an automobile has
cast a shadow across his life.
When Krolls auto yesterday
plowed into a group of school
children at f. Warren and Iro-

was a continuation of bad luck
with traffic. The only difference
is the other three times members
of his own family were the VIC

Two years ago his daughter,
Diana, was struck by an auto;
more than 20 years ago his eldest

Size of Women's Vote to Affect Result
Of Elections But Little, Says Observer

velt, the Negro woman vent over
with the Negro man. In that elec-
ton and in 1910 they were for Mr.
Roosevelt with equal solid!ty. II in
this election, as seems indicated
that solidity is lessened, the proper
ton of loss between the male and
female Negroes will be practically
the same.
There Just is no, woman vote
Not even on the so-called moral
questions do women vote one way
and men the other. There has not
yet been found an issue upon which
the sexes divide.
After "a years it is still correct to
say that giving the women the vote
has doubled the size of the eiecto-
rate, more than doubled the cost
of campaigns and elections, and
greatly added to the bewilderment
and confusion. But, it hasn't
changed anything else.
That, however, is not the fault OF
women and in no way detracts from
the fact that there was no sound
reason for withholding the vote
from them.

@. Why is Parian marble preferred
by Sculptors?-R. E. H.

Means a Lot
to This G. I.

There's one GIL. Joe who's
looking forward 10 Christmas
this year in big way and that's
Pfc. Joseph Spiegel, just back
from 80 months overseas duty.
Last Christmas Joe was laying
fever ridden in a jungle hospital
Just back Of the front lines in
New Guinea. He could hear the
not too distant shell fire and
smell the damp Soggy heat of the
tropics as it enveloped their
makeshift hospital and he could
think of Christmas at home.
With the famed 32nd Red Ar
row division he has known
some of the fightingest moments
on record and has come through
unscathed, as he says Just one
of the lucky ones =. some of my
best pals were killed or wound
ed Splegel has found out that
men can fight with tears in their
eyes and a prayer in their heart,
for Out there, men pray. and
the most of them 60 to services
whenever possible"
A typical soldier, he has done
everything from patrol duty 10
working in the camp laundry.
1t was while doing the latter that
he was aCcidently Scalded and
hospitalized for severe burns on
his hands and legs. Joe is a
bachelor and lives with his par
ents in sturdy brick home
which he built before the war
at 2l319 Ryan road and he has
a sister, Mrs. Louise Scott, who
listens adoringly while he tells
of his many experiences with
the enemy -. always ending,
but l was just lucky"
Pfc. Spiegel won't be in Mich
igan this Christmas, unless his
request to stay over a few more
days is granted he will be in
Florida rest camp but to use his
own phrasing: That's in Amer
lea so it'll be a real American
Christmas And across the
waters other Americans still
fight on. for peace on earth,
good will toward men.
