Claiming that Democratic voters

j William A. Comstock resurrected
his sword of St George and set
out again today 10 guarantee that
Michigan remains Republican.
Comstock, an instructive de-
fender of minorities, fought for
20 years to make Michigan Demo
cratic and. once he succeeded, he
soon turned against the New Deal
and the Roosevelt philosophy.

Under the banner Of the JEFF

and for Willkie in 1910.
"WIIlkie carried Michigan by

out. 1--WE Democrats who be-

REDS PUSH CLOSER TO
 BUDAPEST
Soviet Forces Sweep Over Rolling Plains to Within
 30 Miles of Capital

MOSCOW, Nov. 2.-Russian arm pred spearheads are reported to be within 30 miles of Budapest and are advancing steadily against stiff but gradually weakening resistance, on the rolling plains southeast of the city.
 Soviet field dispatches said that advance elements of the Red Army penetrated beyond LaJosmizse, B miles from Budapest, after an ad- vance in which more than hund- red occupied places were captured. Among the latter was the important railway center of Kecskemet.
 Germans and their Hungarian al- lies are reported falling back upon the defenses the people of Budapest were forced to dig outside of the city.
 Budapst is said to be in turmoil.
 The Russians encountered hard going today, with great numbers of anti-tank weapons concentrated by the enemy on the broad treeless plain over which the Red Army is advancing on 50-mile front be- tween the Danube and Tisza Rivers.

MINISTER QUITS
 OVER CANADIAN
 SERVICE MEASURE

OTTAWA, Nov. 2.-Canada's De- fense Minister, Colonel J. R. Ral- ston, resigned protesting against the governments refusal to compel mili- tary conscripts to serve overseas. It. Gen. McNaughton succeeded him.
 Use of the Home Defense Army numbering about 10000 men, has been an issue in Canada for several years and brought on crisis in Mackenzie Kings cabinet.
 Under the government program men called up for compulsory mili- tary service may not be sent over seas unless they volunteer.
 In general, opposition to total conscription comes from French speaking Quebec.
 Until September of last year Me- NaughtOn was commander of the Canadian forces. It is expected he will support the governments pro- gram. The resignation of Angus Mcdonald, Navy Minister, is also believed possible.

DEWEYTAkES SWATATFDR,

Declares Roosevelt Has Sold Out to PAC-Also
 Communists

BOSTON, Mass, Nov. 2. In dual attack on President Roosevelt and his violent supporters" Gov. Thomas E. Dewey last night de- clared his Democratic opponent in an overwhelming desire to perpet- uate himself in office for 16 years, has put his Party on the auction block-for sale to the highest bid der"
 The highest bidder, Dewey said is not the notorious One Thousand Club" but the Political Action Con- mittee and Sidney Hillman and the Communists of Earl Browder."
 While asserting he had no quar- rel with the communism of Russia, the Republican Presidential nominee flayed both Hillman and Browder as leading the fourth term move so out of it they can form a govern ment more easily to be changed"
 Re-echoing the phrase he attrib- uted to Roosevelt-"clear everything with Sidney"-Dewey said Sidney Hillman has become the biggest po- litical boss in the United States, and in the words Of David Dubinsky, Sidney Hillman is the sub-front for the Communists"
 Dewey declared that with Hill- mans aid the communists are seiz- ing control of the New Deal through which they aim to control the Gov ernment of the United States

Americans Advance Two Miles in Hurfgen For

LONDON, Nov. 2-American in fantry, fighting through the dense Hurtgen Forest, south east of Aachen, advanced from one to nearly two miles in a new attack and overran two villages and reached a third.
 British Commandos and Cana dian infantry are assaulting dike- girded Walcheren Island in the last phase of a battle to uncover Antwerp They famed out rapidly along a two to three mile wide zone in the sand dunes. They flushed the Germans out of all but the northern outskirts of Vlissingen.
 Resistance Stiffened
 The British are meeting stiffened rear-guard resistance in their drive toward Rotterdam, however. The Americans and Poles were forced Ito give up the narrow hard-won bridgeheads over the Mark River, the last barrier before the Maas and Hollandsch Diep bridges.
 With heavy preparation by ar tillery, stealthily placed during the past two weeks, infantrymen of the United States First Army hopped off on an attack through the Hurtgen Forest this morning and overran the village of Gar meter and reached the town of Hurtgen, seven miles southwest of Duren on the road to Cologne, for q gain of one mile.
 Village Oyerrun
 The village of Vassenack was overrun in another advance of nearly two miles.
 British Commandos, who invaded Walcheren. near Westkapelle early Wednesday, by-passed the village of Domburg and knocked out at least 25 big German guns. The month-old battle below the Schelde Estuary came to virtual finis to- night as the Canadians overran Knocke and Heyst, the last Ger man strongholds, and captured an additional 1,700 Germans, bring ing the total Allied bag in the pocket to 11,700.

 Vital Leyfe Town
By c. YATES MCDANIEL GA. P. War Correspondent)

GEN. MacARTHUR'S HEAD QUARTERS IN THE PHILIP PINES, Nov. 2-Dismounted First Cavalry troops today locked in a see-saw battle with a large Japa- nese force at Carigara for control of that town, seven miles east on the only escape highway left open to the retreating enemy on Leyte.
 Maj. Gen. Verne Mudges men, moving along the Carigara Bay coast from Barugao, opened the east of Carigara town after just east of Carigari town after skir- mish troops encountered a larger enemy force and engaged it in the town itself, whose fall would pave the way for drive on Pinamopan, the north terminus on the escape road to Ormac.
 While this fight continued, other Japanese strove with counter attacks, concentrated artillery and bridge demolitions to check another peril to Carigara town, posed from the south by Twenty Fourth Di- vision troops. Heavy mortar fire pinned down the Tanks for hours, but Maj Gen. Fred Irving coun- tered with an intense bombardment on enemy positions. Still the Japa- nese held on
 Sherman tanks tried to break through over the broken terrain but failed because of the point blank fire. The Nipponese were dis lodged only after American infan- trymen outflanked their positions.
 The communique placed the 24th Division within six miles of Cari- gara, but field dispatches put it much closer, in saying that they are only two miles from joining the First Cavalry in showdown fight.
 Fifth Airforce fighters, based on Leyte, and speedy patrol boats con- stantly disrupted the Nipponese reinforcement activities at Ormac, blasting barges and also blowing up a large ammunition dump in that area.

The W ashingt ion Merry Go Round
By DREW PEARSON Ct. Col. Robert S. Allen now on active service with the Army.)

WASHINGTON-GOP leaders on Capitol Hill are delighted at re- ports from Albany that Governor Dewey has veered away from John F. Dulles as his prospective Secre- tary of State and is looking over Senator Styles Bridges, of New Hampshire.
 Senator Bridges has been a vigor- ouS critic of the administration on domestic affairs but an enthusiastic co-operator on foreign policy and rearmament.
 One thing which pleases COP leaders on Capitol Hill is the idea of a Secretary of State selected from the Senate. Present members of the Senate always have got along well with Cordell Hull, a former Senator. Hull speaks their language. So they think sena- torial appointment by Dewey, if elected, would make for better CO., operation between the State De- partment and the other end of Pennsylvania Avenue.
 Yesterday this column told how the Justice Department had failed to prosecute certain political cases
