Political War Ended Americans Unite Against the Axis “I am confident that all Americans will Join me in the hope that divine providence will guide and protect the president of the United States” Conceding his defeat in the contest for the highest office within the gift of any peo- pie on earth Gov Thomas E Dewey addressed the words above quoted to all his fellow countrymen wherever they happen to be or whatever may be their political 'affiliations The president promptly sent the governor a telegram of appreciation That is the American way It should be the way of all nationalities With such an example heeded and emulated war would be eliminated from the evils that afflict mankind From one of the bitterest campaigns ever waged in this republic — a conflict in which partisan feeling rose above the boiling degree and fighting words wer£ exchanged with a lack of discretion that might have resulted seriously in any other land but this — the domestic controversy has ended with unity restored and a solid front presented to the foes of democracy and civilization The president’s victory at the polls on 'Tuesday while yielding fewer electoral votes than did his former campaigns was substantial and decisive Moreover it was secured an accumulation of accusations against “new deal” against charges of inthe against efficiency and incompetence in the war effort against the defection of antagonistic members of his own party and against the handicap of one of America’s deepest rooted political traditions ’It is a tribute to Mr Roosevelt’s personality rather than to the sagacity or skill of his backers that he was resiable to win approval for a fourth-terdence in the White House Of course it will be conceded by his supporters and claimed by his opponents that the unfinished war with pending problems of peace that were left unsolved 25 years ago contributed most to the result Cares and responsibilities which have weighed heavily on the chief executive and commander in chief during the past 12 years will increase with exacting demands of the coming months In the words of Gov Thomas E Dewey let all Americans join in ‘‘the hope that divine providence will guide and protect the president of the United States” m Stalin Reveals Policy For Keeping the Peace 9 1944 Premier Stalin of Russia made an impor- coming as it did in the midst of our American campaign got less notice than it deserved In it for the first time a Russian policy on international affairs was outlined officially Many observers have believed that the chief of the soviets had arrived at a general under- standing on war and peace plans with Britain and America but no real evidence of such a circumstance had been apparent in statements emanating from Moscow’ Stalin's w’ords left little doubt as to how Russia regards Japan JHte classed the Japs and the Germans without any distinction as “aggressive nations” He pointed out the danger to peaceful nations of such military peoples when they are permitted to arm “It cannot be considered accidental” Stalin told his people ‘‘that such unpleasant facts occurred as the incident at Pearl Harbor the loss of the Philippines and other islands of the Pacific ocean the loss of Hong Kong and Singapore w’hen Japan as an aggressive nation proved more prepared for w’ar than Great Britain and the United States which pursued the policy of peace “Neither can we consider” he continued “accidental such an unpleasant fact as the loss of the Ukraine White Russia and the Baltic during the first year of the war when Germany as an aggressive nation proved more prepared for war than the peace-lovin- g soviet union” These words leave little doubt as to what Russia intends to do about aggressors in the postwar world Meeting of force with force not pacifistic gestures is obviously in Stalin’s mind just as it is in the minds of realistic thinkers about the peace in Britain and in thi3 country Peaceful nations do not all have learned set an example for countries like Germany and Japan Rather they offer temptation for conquest either against them or other lands which they are unable to pro- tect The peace of tomorrow will not last unless it is enforced by military naval and air power If Americans are not prepared to participate in some program which wields this pow’er at the first sign of aggression they might as well start preparing for the next war I i Not because the grief felt by the Alben rgstroms of Tremonton is any more poignant than that experienced by hundreds of other parents but the fact that the recent

Luckily the nonsense of American political campaigns generally evaporates as fast as the ballots themselves which once counted lose their value and become waste paper Only substance survives Falseness cannot endure the calmer atmosphere of reasoning and acquire permanence In the closing of the campaign some hasty people on the radio for instance suggested Dewey or Roosevelt should be impeached for something or other which was not clear In the speakers excited minds And at the other extreme I heard the all too reasonable suggestion that now the election la over the losers should give In their viewpoints to the winners “the issues are decided” and now “we must all work together” Neither course is likely to be followed this time The frenzied few will quiet down gradually from impeachment thoughts as they come face to face writh new developments It Is equally inevitable that the genuine faith of people in certain truths and ideals at the moment I am writing this before election is not going to be turned around for the espousal of opposite ideals after election To think many people on either side are going to change like that is to assume they never really believed what they said In this election certain social forces brought into clash Those same forces will in general believe on Wednesday what they thought on Tuesday and nothing in the world can make them change But there wras a surviving substance ‘ developed during this campaign — a substance which could be as important to the future of the country and the world as the outcome of the election Both sides promised the same things in great instances This agreeable residue of the debate is what the country has the right to expect from the victor indeed wrhat it must insist upon The mutual promises were basically

March This family these parents have been called upon to make sacrifices in this war far beyond those of most Americans But their grief is nevertheless shared by countless other families who have given their all that the world may be kept free The Tribune in extending sympathy to the stricken Borgstrom family also proffers it to all other parents bereft of their sons or daughters in this cruel conflict m JUST WAIT AN&SEEIFIT WORK BEFORE ( - David Lawrence Says: WASHINGTON— What were the best speeches of the presidential campaign? The wford “best” might well be defined not as a comparison between the parties or the candidates but wholly from the standpoint of the particular side on which the speech happened to be delivered Thus the question might really be asked in another form: “What were the most effective speeches on each side of the campaign?” First prize undoubtedly should go to Prime Minister Churchill who without mentioning Pres Roosevelt made a speech in the house of commons against changing horses in midstream He was talking about a bill in parliament which would defer the elections there but the arguments he used against any change in government now are precisely those which supporters of Pres Roosevelt were using during the campaign in the United States — only he expressed them much better Marshal Stalin would have qualified for the first prize except that his address on the occasion of the anniversary of the red revolution came a bit too late to have an effect in the American political campaign But the speech was so well written and contained so many interesting arguments in support of Mr Roosevelt’s candidacy that had it been delivered two weeks ago it would have been even more effective than that of Pnme Minister Churchill This is because quite a lot of debate has been going on inside the United States about the communists and the Russian government and the speech of Marshal Stalin was intended to give the impression that nobody in the United States had anything to fear from Russia or communism On the contrary Marshal Stalin painted a picture of a Russia with plans to cooperate with the United States in every way He spoke warmly of the new league of nations and went so far as to call Japan an aggressor All of this raised hopes that Mr Roosevelt's policy of cultivating Marshal Stalin might yield dividends some day in the form of Russian participation in the American-J- war Entirely apart from the speeches made abroad perhaps the best address delivered during the campaign on the Roosevelt side was that of War Mobilization Director James F Byrnes closely followed by that of Averell Harriman American ambassador to Russia The president's speech at Chicago was easily his best whereas Gov Dowev's best speech was the one he delivered at Seattle early in the campaign Most of the campaign speeches were not in themselves informative with the possible excepapanese tant and revealing speech the other day which Another Reason Why This War Must Be the Last One -
