TRUMPETING DEFEAT
(Christian Science Monitor)


Are the Nazis conceding the whole
grim golf game in East Prussia Just be-
cause the Russians have made hole-ln-
one from the first tee?
The German people may deduce as
much from Berlin's reports of,a Russian
invasion of that territory. These reports
sound like list of reasons why East
Prussia will be lost. They speak of 500
tanks, hundreds of big guns, an over
whelming barrage. "unheard of numer-
ical superiority" in the Russian forces.
OF course the object of such reports
is to cushion home-front morale against
the impact of bad news and to make
any stray bits of good news seem all
the better. Defeat in East Prussia must
not be permitted to suggest to Germans
that they are not the greatest military
people on earth, but rather that, consider
ing the odds, the German armies are real
ly accomplishing almost superhuman
feats.
But the German people must know that
East Prussia is only one more in a series
of confirmations that Germany has lost
the war Therefore these battles, being
fought today, may we'll be regarded in
Germany as the battles of the next world
war. They are battles to win the peace
that is, to win such peace terms as
will permit German power to rise again
in Europe. Otherwise, the battles begin
ming there would have to be written down
IN advance as futile.

BUTTONS
(San Diego Union)

One thing you may have observed about
this 1914 presidential contest is the com
parative absence of buttons on the lapels
of the faithful party voters. This is not
due to priorities. for buttons are avail
able. 1t may not be due to apathy either,
but maybe to a feeling on the part of
voters that button advertising his politi-
cal affiliations is little bit superfluous:
That not all enthusiastic partisans feel
this indifference, however, is attested by
a scene at the Plaza few days ago. The
wearer of candidates button was &C
costed by fellow loafer. who demanded
to know why he was wearing that so-and-
so button. "Just to start an argument"
barkad the wearer. well, you've got
it," said the challenger. And the verbal
fireworks started.
The moral, if any, seeming to be that
if you wear party button YOU may as
we'll be prepared to defend it.

Huise Outlines
Vote Proposals
At Rotary Meet

Senatcr-elect Ben Hulse Thurs
day outlined his opinions of the L
propositions to appear on the No
vember : ballot, for the benefit OF
FL Centre Rotarians at the Local
clubs weekly luncheon.
Briefly summarizing the cbiee-
tives of each proposition, Hulse in
dicated his reasons for favoring OF
not fayoring each proposition as
follows:
Proposition /: Relative loans to
. servicemen. Very desirable but
should provide for $25O.OOCO0O
in loans instead of only 100000 COO
which will be insufficient to meet
needs.
Proposition 2: Providing certain
tax exemptions for servicemen. Very
fair and equitable. Deserves a yes
vote.
Prop osition 3: Constitutional
amendment pertaining to giving
legislature power to raise salaries
of certain state officers. Improper
to have salaries of such important
officials subject tc the control of
legislators.
Proposition 4: Providing for ex-
emption of property of charitable
institution property: Dangerous.
opens doors to extensive tax eva
SIGN.
Proposition 5: Enabling legisla-
tlon permitting certain kinds of
former government officials to re-
turn tc their Jobs upon leaving the
service: a fair and needed act de-
serving popular support.
Proposition 6: Providing for an
nual session of state legislature. I'm
practical inasmuch as % limita-
ton of only so days for transact
ing state business would be imprac-
tical and dangerous: and (2) elin1i-
hates the present provisions fer 30
day recess during which to study
and acquaint public with proposed
legislation before taking action.
Should be voted down.
Proposition 7: Providing expenses
for legislators. This is raising sal
aries by subterfuge.
Proposition 8: This proposal for
validating tax deeds probably is il
legal and would do more harm than
good
Proposition g: Increasing the
school tax. Much of present money
is wasted by the Sacramento school
headquarters diverting money from
rural schools to big metropolitan
educational systems. The proposal, !.
while not correcting that particular
evil, would at least increase the |
money going to rural schools.
Proposition 10. Permitting raising
salaries of certain local public Off
cials during encumbency. This plan |
is Objectionable inasmuch as pres
ent laws permit raising such salaries |
to take effect at end of present /
terms. Present law is sufficient.
Proposition II: $50 at Co. This |
would upset complete economy CT /
state.
Proposition II: Free dom to
work" This would dc exactly as the |
states, i.e.. make it illegal |
to withhold employment from any
job because of on-membership in |
a union organization.
HulSe was presented by club pres
ident w w. McEuen. who also gave T
the club charge to these new men,
berc: Carl Hardy, ElWCod Griest, o. |
L. Bane. Clifford Cook and George |
T. Liddell.
Hardy was presented by Louis
McManus as the latest new member /
to join the club.

EHAH to Talk About!

It is no longer necessary to put up with
the trouble caused by Pin-Worms. Don't
let your child or yourself suffer that tor
menting embarrassing rectal itching, or
take chances with the internal distress.
Medical science has now discovered a
q1eU and highly e6ectiUe a0Gy TO deal with
this stubborn and troublesome infection.
This important scientific discovery is
remarkable drug known as Rentian violet.
II is the vital element in PW, the new
Pin-Worm treatment developed by the
laboratories Of DR.. ID. jayne d Son, Amer
ica's leading specialists in worm medicines.
P-W tablets are small and easy To take.
and they act in a special way TO destroy
the ugly creatures.
Watch for the warning signs: itching
nose and seat, uneasy stomach, bed-wst.
ting. uneven appetite. Remember that now
there is a treatment that works on Pin
Worms as no old-fashioned worm syrup"
or worm candy" could. So If you even sus-
pect Pin-Worms, get box Of PW right
away, and follow the directions carefully.
F.W means Pin-Worm relief!

BOTTOM OF THE BARREL

(Riverside Daily Press
As our armies come to grips with Ger
manys strength, they can also learn of
Germany's weakness from the lips Of
Hitler himself. For in his last speech
Hitler did not extol the might of the
wahrmacht Instead. he called upon the
new volunteers of the class of 1928 to
set the people an example of fighting
spirit and fanatical sacrifice.
When Hitler must turn to 16-year-olds
for spiritual example as well as material
aid, the props of the third reich are be-
ginning to crumble.
