Because pres ent facilities are swamped with old orders, it will be necessary to provide additional plant expansion in the air plane industry. UNEMPLOYED Unemployed in the country in September totalled 8,544,000, accord ing to an A. F. of L. estimate, which says .that there was t" decrease of 660,000 in unemployment in Septem ber. According to tike labor organi zation, 1,300,000 persons went back to work since September, 1939, but tike gain was offset by a 600,000 in crease in the working population and, accordingly, unemployment, was de creased by only 900,000.

Such risks as may aceompsmyg it would have been accepted ss willing ly by Mr. Willkie as tikay have here accepted by Mr Roosevelt Con sequently, wa have bare unable to follow the reasoning of those who have asserted that a vote for the re election of Mr. Roosevelt represented I a vote for war. Since it may be said now, without any suspicion of political propaganda and without effect; we reiterate the thought that the question of war or peace for the United Statee depends, not upon who sits in. the White House, but upon the reaction of Ger many, Italy and Japan to the estab lished and accepted poHdee of this Republic. ^ j So long-as Great Britain continues its nuigirtflrent resistance against i Germany, there la little prospect that Herr Hitler will pick a quarrel with jhe United States. So long as China continues to engage the Japanese Arpty^ in the Far East and Russia rits sullenly on the side-lines, the Japanese are not going to pick a fight with this country. Should the British defense collapse, or Russia enter h** a pact with Ger many and Japan, there is south pros pect tint Germany and Japan will exhibit their disptoainire, but it would be doubtful whether, even tnen, either would court a hostile clash with the United States. Only the com plete of British resistance will pave the way for a totalitarian 1 This being the situation in the in (thenational field, aruT we believe it (truly represents the outlook for the United States, the policy of non-bel lligerency, including all possible as j sristance to Great Britain, is war L^ndahip for the?foitash, butTin the I interest and for the protection of the I ^ . -l y.
