time and would have to look to the
democrats to put him over. In the
meantime he has refused to take the
stump for his successful rival and has
issued no announcement Of his intention
to vote for him. His position on the
fence is accepted by republicans as
favorable to them and their candidate.
What the verdict at the polls may
be is a matter of speculation, but 1t
cannot be overlooked that as a result
of his defeat in the primary Montana
may send a republican to the senate
in the November balloting and so mar
row the shrinking democratic majority
in the upper branch Of Congress.

Byrnes' Greater Task

Russia's attitude on the treaties
drawn at Paris for five former enemy
countries, as voiced by Mr.. Molotov,
Moscow's foreign commissar, provides
additional proof that the zone world"
dreamed by Wendell Willkie on which
so many million people have based their
hope of peace is no nearer now than
when the fighting vas at the peak.
Mr.. Molotov calls the treaties un-
satisfactory and says he will attack
parts Of them when the foreign minis
tiers chiefly concerned in working out
a peace program for Europe meet in
New York on November 4.
Russia's chief opposition is to. the
decision affecting the future of Trieste,
over which the United Nations Security
Council would exercise the ruling power,
and to the opening of the Danube to
ships of all nations under equal terms.
The success or failure Of the forth
coming Foreign Ministers Conference
obviously will depend in largest meas
ure on Secretary Of State Byrnes'
adroitness. Upon occasion at Paris he
proved that he has extraordinary ability
in outmaneuvering Mr.. Molotov. If he
is up to par during the New York ses-
sion it is possible that the Russian
representative will fail to undo all that
was accomplished at Paris.
BY the same token, any let-down
in the leadership he displayed during
the drafting of the treaties will give Mr..
Molotov the opening he seeks and the
work of laying the foundation of peace
in Europe through adoption of the
treaties by the United Nations General
Assembly later next month will have
been done in vain. Neither Great
Britain nor France, through their rep
resentatives, is capable of doing the
job. They can follow, but cannot lead.
Mr.. Byrnes faces an even more diff
cult task in New York than in Paris.
The Wilmington morning star., 1946-10-18

Experience has shown a NOV.
ing relationship between how
many people register to vote in
New York City and how many
voters turnout to vote through
out the entire country in the No
vember elections. The relationship
shows the New York City regis
tration becoming constantly great
er in relation to the total vote of
the nation.
In 1894, 1877, 800 voters regis
tered in New York City. The turn
out for the nation in November
of that year was 80, 487, 1855. The
national vote was thus 1914 times
greater than New York ~'ty re-
gistration.
In 1888, the turnout through
out the nation was only 14.9 times
greater than the New York City
registrations. In 1912, the nation
al vote was only 1871 times great
er than the New York City re-
gistrations.

count a number of factors oper-
ating on the relationship Of New
York City registrations to total

The Other Side

For many years, the governments
fiscal policy has been largely based on
the John Maynard Keynes theory of
economics. At one time, Mr.. Keynes
conferred with the late President Roose-
welt. The theory is extremely complex
in detail, but its essence is simple
that the government should prime the
pump to maintain employment and pro-
duction in bad times. A good practical
example of this was the WPA in de-
preston days.
Without debating the merits of Mr..
Keynes economic principles, it should
be obvious that there is another side
of the picture. If government is to
spend beyond it's income in bad times,
it must spend less than its income in
good times in order to reduce the debt
and create surplus capital and credit
for future use when needed. And that
side of the picture is what we have
completely failed to see in this country.
We are in some kind Of a boom, en-
ployment is beyond the 100000 job
level urged by Mr.. Wallace-and we're
working on the largest peacetime Fed
eral budget in our history.
To talk about economy isn't to prac-
tice economy. And Washington has
lately been full of talk which has been
accompanied by practically no action.
We're still throwing our money and
our substance away on the perpetuation
of bureaus whose life should be ended,
and on a million and one other pork
barrel schemes.
This is the road to perpetual infla-
ton, to the ultimate destruction Of the
dollar, and to an eventual economic
collapse almost beyond comprehension,
And only courage and resolution can
stop it.

Wheeler On The Fence

Burton K. Wheeler, for twenty-four
years senator from Montana, ardent
isolationist and enemy Of the new deal,
took the count in the states primary
election. His defeat is credited to i'm
ported CIO-PAC le~ft-wingers. However
this may be, Mr.. Wheeler is out of the
running, but as sometimes happens he
holds, if not the balance of power in
the campaign, at least a block of votes
which would give the republican candi-
date, Zales N. Ecton, the victory over
the democratic candidate, Left Erick-
son.
There are those who believe Mr..
Wheeler would like to give his support
openly. to the republicans, but is re-
strained by the possibility that he may
want to run for office at some future

New York Registrations Now Point
To National Vote OF 81, 600, 600

This would mean a total turn
out this year running about A.
900, 900 below the number who
voted in the presidential year of
1914.
It would be about 5000, 900
below what institute statisticians
estimate could be considered a
normal turnout for this year
taking into account population
growth, the increase in eligible
voters, etc. The normal turnout
statisticians say, would be approx
imately 43, 900, 900 if turnout trends
in effect before the war continue.
A "a, 1000, 900 turnout would be
no higher than the 1888 vote,
when there were about 10, 900, 900
fewer eligible voters than there
are today. In 1888, the national
vote for Congress was about &c.
900, 900.

Fire Losses Mount

The National Board Of Fire Under
writer's has made a report that cannot
fail to bring home to all thoughtful
persons the economic loss to this coun-
try through fires. The report shows
that last month property to the value
of S40,256,0 900 went up in smoke or was
destroyed in extinguishjng flames. This
is "a per cent greater than the loss
in September last year. It further shows
that from the first of last January
through September 80 the loss amount
ed to S418, 579, 000-25 per cent heavier
than in the same period of 1945-and
that in the full year ending on Septem-
Der 80 the losses rose 20 per cent over
the previous year to $539,920, 900.
Rich as the United States is, it can
not stand this destruction of property.
Nor does it square with the nations
need for conservation. The fact that
fire losses have been on the increase
during the period since the fighting
war ended is not h%eartening.
For the most part it is needless.
Nine out of ten fires are ~preventable.
They are traceable to human negligence
either in failing to remove fire hazards
or to provide extinguishers, not in bust
ness buildings alone but in homes as
we'll.

Health

One basic trouble with such sweep
ing measures as the proposed Wagner
Murray-Dingell public health bill is
that they attempt to do too much too
fast. This bill, for instance, would give
the Federal government all-inclusive
power over medical practice, including
doctors, hospitals and clinics, at a huge
and untold cost, on the theory that the
public health would be greatly improved.
The truth is that public health is not
a matter of medical care alone. For the
most part, the doctor steps into the
picture when the patient becomes i'll.
His job is to cure. The ideal of better
public health requires that the condi-
lions which create illness be prevented.
And this involves such huge problems
as the housing, recreation, working
conditions and so on down a long list.
A study recently made by the Insur-
ance Economics Society of America re-
veals the enormous fluctuations between
the forty eight states in population,
medical facilities and other matters re-
lated to health. The health problems of
m locality, or n age group, or one
income group, differ greatly from those
of another. AS the survey observes, INC
matter which -. conditions we under.
take to improve, we would waste part
of our effort if we blanketed the coun.
try with a packaged program"
We have taken long strides in better
ing the public health. Great progress
is now in the making, and the effect.
of such programs as the various Blue
Cross plans, prepaid medical care ant
individual and group health insurance
are entirely beneficial. Voluntary acti
vities like these, instead of measures
which would virtually socialize medicine
point to the proper road.

1t has always been my opinion
that Louis Watson, who oled about
~ years ago, al one of the
greatest caro- players of all time
and that his book, Watson On
The Play or the Hand" is one
Of the best ever written. When l
watched Peter Leventritt play to-
days hand out in California, l
said That was a typical Watson
hand" 1t was Watson'ts belief
that if the cards had to lay in
one particular way to make the
contract, that was the way to play
the hand. Lenentritt played it &C
cording to Watson theory.
He trumped the opening spade
lead with dummy's jack OF hearts,
cashed the queen and led the three
of hearts, playing the eight-spot
from his own hand. In order to
make the contract he needed those
two entries, and he had to find
the ten-spot in the East hand.
AS Vests opening bid practi-
cally marked him with the ace of
clubs, Leventritt led the club six
and West made it easy by playing
