The Democrats did get in a lick
through Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt,
widow of the late President. And
former Secretary of Commerce
Henry Wallace had a speech on
tap in Detroit tonight.
In a transcribed ABC broadcast
from New York Mrs. Roosevelt de-
scribed the Democratic party as
the one "best able to set our feet
on the way to peace" She said
election of a Democratic congress
will mean much less chance of
another war"
That was only one of the issues
that have made this off-year Slec-
ton campaign one of the hottest
in recent history. Others have
been the shortage of meat and
other things consumers want, con-
trolls over prices, the possibility of
another coal strike.
In state after state, those have
been key issues. In addition, the
candidates are fighting it out over
many other points. For instance:
Republicans charge there is an
alliance between the Democrats
and Communists, as well as be-
tween the Democrats and the CO.
Political Action Committee. Demo
Gratis say they don't want and
don't deserve Communist backing.
The COP promises to cut ex-
penses and lower taxes if it takes
over congress. The Democrats &C
cuse the Republicans of trying to
sabotage what they call a con-
structive program begun by Presi-
dent Roosevelt and continued by
President Truman.
The Republicans appeal to the
people to put them in control to
end corruption" in government.

THE establishment of a 1000

be advantageous to the commun-
ity both from the economic and

munity many physicians, nurses,

"The proposed institution would
be highly instrumental in estab-
fishing this rea as mt of the
medical centers of the state"
Harlod NJ. Hinkle, manager OF
the United States Employment
service office here said, This
proposal is one of the finest moves
ever undertaken in Wilmington. Not
only will it provide employment
for many hundreds of veterans
during construction. but it would
provide permanent employment for
a large staff thereafter. Such a
hospital here would provide a real
service to veterans in h~ospitaliza-

debate was a clash between Sen.

sentative Andrei V. Vishinsky
over the broad principle of tht
committees right to review th'
Security Councils actions.
