on fatalists fought the water through the jungles and from Island to island—who have kept awake and alert to keep alive stung by malgrial insects tormented by loathsome vermin and scratched by poisonous thorns napping with exhaustion in slimy foxholes weakened with dysentery and sometimes burning with tropical fever are fully convinced according to Correspondent Lewis B Sebring that "the home-stayin- g portion of our population does not seem to know a war is on" These defenders of our faith and freedom of our rights upon all the seas and continents of our security from encirclement and gradual stagnation of our prestige among the powers of advancing civilization are unable to understand the tendency to play with rag dolls of greed and make mud pies of spite over Vthich they wrangle and rave as if per zonal aggrandizement and political preferment were more important than is the obliteration of scourges that threaten and demoralize he whole human race Uniformed men covered with scars and scratches reading crumpled newspapers in rare intervals of relaxation or in a time of recuperation naturally marvel at the strikes and walkouts in plants relied upon to supply the sinews of war—mutinous conduct that would be regarded as treason or desertion in any other country but the United States—and our loyal defenders cannot help wondering If the workmen who cease passing the ammunition because of the creed or color of a fellow craftsman are aware of the serious and sacrificial nature of the conflict into which our government was drawn by the treacherous attack on Pearl Harbor while peace negotiations were in progress The Herald Tribune correspondent now enjoying his first breathing spell in more than two years confesses that he is more than puzzled over the excuses given by strikers for halting production of the things each fellow citizen in uniform needs for success or survival inthen particular part assigned him – cause for supporting-the-commoIn an attempt to portray the emotions of our fighting men on the various fronts when they hear of production stoppages for selfiah or comparat'-eltrivial reasons the correa draws spondent parallel: "There

discipline which frowns on demonstrations or round-robi- n pronouncements ore is helpless in protesting these desertions On the home front during the course of a arena—soldiers y total war" Retail Grocers of Utah Holding Annual Convention De legatee to the 40th annual convention of the Utah Retail Grocers' association will meet this morning at the Newhouse hotel in Salt Lake City Presiding over the sessions concluding tomorrow afternoon Derrell Mc- Cullough will conduct deliberations as head man of the Salt Lake Butchers and Grocers' organization He also will hold the customary reception at the hotel tonight Among the more eminent visitors to be beard the following have been announced: Par lin Lillard New York City western manager for General Food Sales Co to discuss "What's Ahead for the Food Industry" U S Representative J Will Robinson of Utah chairman of the house committee on small business to discuss "Congressional Activity to Promote the Welfare of Small Independent nusiness" and Harry Vogel president of the Idaho Food Distributors' Assn to deliver "the address he recently made in Chicagp at a national convention" Whether or not this is an intimation that the purveyors' convention is to participate as a body in the coming campaign or merely an attempt to provoke a retailers' riot has not - been confided to the general public But every act and utterance of organized employers or employes of operators or distributors is apt to be closely scrutinized and carefully dissected during the next three months Mayor Earl J Glade will preside over the relaxation period tonight and the inimitable Fielding K Smith will act as toastmaster Everybody knows what a grocer does and nearly every consumer makes direct or indirect contact with members of the retail grocers' fraternity The name first appeared in the vocabulary of trade in the year 1373 as written in the records of a London company Literally the word means "one who sells by the zross" and once referred only to wholesalers but in modern usage it includes "all who deal in general supplies for the table and dornestir! use" The Salt Lake Tribune welcomes the guei13 and delegates and wishes the

exercised in the transition period after the war or permanently The small nations will not look with favor upon any organization which dominates the world Mutual distrust and suspicion will grow The only opportunity for the building of a lasting peace would seem to lie in a universal organization of equal sovereign nations with every nation accepting full responsibility for peace This was the basic idea of the League of Nations which was rejected by the Republicans in 1919 But It is significant that while Mr Dewey discusses this subject in a critical way so far as the public is aware the views of President Roosevelt are not at all at variance with those of Governor Dewey Mr Roosevelt has indicated pronouncements by Secretary Hull that through a world-wid- e organization or "general international organization" would be established consuch taining nations large and small but until over time as the general organization can take the responsibility for maintaining peace would be on the four major powers So far as is known –the Roosevelt administration has never intimated alliance that it Wanted to maintain a er four-pow- er "permanently" Actually however President Roosevelt and Secretary Hull are represented as believing that plans for an international organization must be made at once and that the period of transition should be definitely limited so that all nations large and small may have a part in the universal organization What Governor Dewey has said therefore is In lirvi really with the thinking of the government officials here and will be of constructive value in shaping the policies of our government in the forthcoming conference for irrespective of the outcome of the presidential election Governor Dewey's leadership is likely to impress itself on a substantial section of the Republican party and It would be follyfor the state to embark upon any)course department of to invoke such sharp differences that is likely of opinion as to imperil the eventual ratification of the treaty Secretary Hull has indicated that he wants In every way to keep the conferences concerning and postwar organization free from partisanship politics and he haa asked Republicans to sit in on his conference Foreign delegations to the forthcoming conference are likely to take into account that unless there is substantial agreement in the United States on foreign policy the opportunity for American participation in any world organization is likely to be impaired Reproduction Rights Reserved The Lyons Den By Leonard Lyon" Broadway Gazette Etiquette Dept: In

Roosevelt was still away pursuing his "constitutional duties" (on a trip the need for which despite his radio report could be much more convincingly argued from the standpoint of a presidential candidate seeking reelection than from that of commander in chief) the news came out that still pursuing his "constitutional duties" as commander in chief whose aloofness from politics is complete he nevertheless had taken two steps which greatly concern the politicians in both parties One of these was to send a message to the unfortunate Henry Wallace congratulating him on his unsuccessful fight at Chicago and assuring him that if he the president should be reelected there will be an "important place" for "Dear Henry" In the Roosevelt administration The other was to write to Mr Winkle that sore and suffering soul inviting "Dear Wendell" to confer with him on his return concerning the foreign policies the United States should follow for the future Considering these things along with the known record a situation is created which makes one wonder if after all this is not a nation of incurable boobs whose gullibility is without limit—an ideal setup for pious political humbugs Take this message teMr Wallace Not even he can be naive enough not to know that he was doublecrossed at Chicago by the man who now writes congratulating him on his fight That charge was made at the time not only by impartial observers but by friends of Mr Wallace and rather bluntly by columnists who as a rule have a protective attitude toward every questionable presidential act The evidence was overwhelming There was the Roosevelt letter to Wallace in which he "threw him to the wolves" There was the insubsequent Roosevelt letter the dorsing Truman There was conference with president's one velt outstanding disgruntled Re- publican leader for whose views he cares little but who threatens to bolt the Republican ticket with whatever following he may have left And Mr Winkle full of bile and bitterness of course will go It helps the game he is playing and is intended to Like the Wallace message it is a studied piece of politics put forth as though there were no such thing as politics The people to accept these steps as nonpartisan nonpolitical mad by a man whose mind is so concentrated upon the great problems of peace that he gives no thought to his personal political fortunes Perhaps he can make this notion stick but there are indications that an increasing after Chairman pro-Roose- he heap the praise that for a while it was thought he might have talked himself into the nomination But the only result was that the speech so thoroughly committed him to Mr Roosevelt that after the administration forces had "rolled" him he was In no position to sulk (as Mr Winkle with not a tithe of Mr Wa Races cause has been doing for months) even if he had wanted to His announced support of the ticket was prompt and complete There was nothing else he could do But that isn't enough for Mr Roosevelt now He does not want the effect of the scheduled Wanace speeches in his behalf diluted by the suspicion of treachery so generally cherished and so widely charged Hence the message and the pledge both well designed to convey the notion that the president really wanted Mr Wallace 'nominated and did all he could to bring about his nomination Mr Wallace can do nothing to correct that notion On the contrary he has got to aid in the deception—for that is what it Ls Perhaps he wants to but that does not seem natural In principle the WI Ilkie invitation is on the same level In the last campaign Mr Roosevelt treated Mr Willkie with great contempt His attitude seemed to be that he was a presumptuous upstart too insigrgficant to dignify by mentioning his name He has not greatly modified that attitude since Mr Willkie's support of his foreign policies did make a certain change in their relations It is no secret that therethough exists neither personal liking nor regard between the two Yet here is the president posing as wholly aloof from politics but whose friends are alarmed by the recent Gallup polls inviting to the White House for conference the Hannegan which orders went down the line for Truman There were the declarations of Eddie Flynn and Eddie Kelly that of their personal knowledge Mr Roosevelt wanted Truman There was finally the fact that had the president kept hands off Mr Wallace would have won the nomination with ease In the face of all this Mr Roosevelt now writes to Mr Wallace as though he had been sincerely for him in the convention instead of having been responsible for his defeat And the great gullible American people are supposed to subscribe to Moreover Mr Wallace that will assist them in subscribing because there is nothing else he can do However well he may know that it was the president who struck him down he cannot say so becanae the night before the president's friends delivered the knockout blow Mr Wallace made one of the most extrava number are beginning to grasp its essential phoniness This may be clue to the fact that the things the peoPle are being asked to swallow appear to grow larger and tougher all the
