THE VOLGA 4 To get in your mind a picture of the plight o Russia, imagine an enemy army advancing 1000 mile: across America, seizing the Mississippi river and stop ping it to traffic, and a vast army thundering at th< very gates of Kansas City. The Molga is the Mississippi of Russia. It mean to the land of Soviets what the Father of Water means to the United States. It turns the wheels o industry in many cities and towns. It affords wate to these same cities. It waters the fertile fields of Rus sia for hundreds of jniles, just as the Mississippi doe here in America, and up and down its waters flow a stream of river traffic, carrying the products of fieli and forest, mine and factory to market, and bringinj back the necessities not produced there. Today the Volga is closed. The fertile fields o Russia are in the hands of the enemy, and, althoug] the Germans will find little provender from then: the Russians will also be denied their fruits. The march of the Germans to the Volga is com parable to Sherman's march to the sea, cutting th Confederacy in two. The prospective Japanese driv into Siberia is comparable to Grant's drive to Rich mond. Together they spelled the defeat of the gal lant Confederacy. This time, let us hope such a dis aster to Russia and to the cause of the United Nation can be averted. AN ACHIEVEMENT IN TIRES Rationing Boards, National, State, Regional, an Local, have a hard task.- They must allocate certai: scarce commodities in a way that will do the mos good to the country at large. They have to be firn Sometimes they may seem to be hard-boiled, bu they are not. They are but performing a difficult an thankless task. Jackson County was up against a real problen Trucks were standing idle, trucks that should ha\ been engaged in hauling wood to the mills to kee them running. Other similar trucks were about read for storage. Men were out of their regular emploj ment, in important tasks, and over others hung th threat of meeting like unemployment. Business wa beginning to form a jam. Then the regional rationing administrator cam to the rescue and allocated new and recapped tire to meet the situation from the regional reserve. Ths is fair and just. It was for just such special emerger cies that the reserve was created. By its use the bio that the Japs struck Jackson county when they ir vaded the Dutch Indies and Malaya was softener at least for the time being. WHY A NATIONAL ACT? There is pending in the Congress a measure pr< viding for men in the armed forces, who are aws from home to vote in the forth-coming election Such a bill should be speedily killed. Our forefathers of the South would have arise almost as one man to protest against the federal go1 ernment injecting itself into the elections in tl States. Fact is they did protest most vigorously c more than one occasion. The Constitution never gave such authority * the Federal government. Its framers never dreami of the Union assuming any control whatever over tl elections in the States, or of the Congress enactir legislation attempting to control the elections. . The first mention of federal assumption of ai powers over elections came after the War Betwe< the States, when the party then in power, in ord to perpetuate itself in. power, forced through tl r *, THE JACKSON COUNTY JOURNA amendment giving the franchise to the Negro, and crammed it down the throats of the helpless South at the point of the bayonet. There is one other amendment, dealing with the suffrage, and that is the amendment providing that women shall vote. That is far enough for the federal government to go. There is already too much concentration of . power in Washington, just as many framers of the Constitution feared there would be, and as many of them tried to prevent. There is no necessity for such legislation as is proposed. Practically all of the States have absentee ballot laws that provide for the absentee voting of soldiers, sailors and marines. The states and the peonle should opppse further assumption by the federal -1 government of powers that were left in tne states ; by the Constitution. If the federal government is to have all power, then there is no need for states. It is a dangerous tendency and if carried too far, can easily become a menace to free government. Keep the government as near to the people as possible, where they can see it in operation. They will see to it that its mistakes are rectified and that it remains responsive to the popular will. LABORING LABOR DAY Monday is Labor Day, the day in which the wheels of industry have been wont to stop while America pays homage to the men and women who i work. This year we shall see another kind of Labor | Day. The celebration is there. The homage is deepenjed; but the wheels of industry, stepped up to new ' tempo by a nation fighting for its life, will continue f to turn through the holiday. Labor will celebrate La1 bor Day by increasing its efforts. In this war we all have much to lose. Our liberties and our lives are at stake; but labor has perhaps I more to lose than the rest of America. Labor in this country is a part of the great republic, honored, ref spected, free. In all the Axis countries and those that s have fallen to the control of the Axis, labor is little - j less than slavery. All the rights of choosing places to 3 work, collective bargaining, things that are taken as j a matter of course in this country, have been swept s! awav. while labor sweats at low wages to provide the s | materials of war for the machine that the Axis has f created for the enslavement of the entire world. An r Axis victory would mean a new order for labor. A - new order in which the age old scourge of slavery s would be the lot of men and women who toil. s | With this in view, American labor is producing d a miracle of production. American labor is determined g that labor and all America khall remain free, and that | freedom-loving peoples everywhere shall have their if rights restored and new rights under the new charter h | of liberty granted to them. That all shall be secure it in their persons, their property, and their liberties I that are theirs by right of being human beings. l- The vast army of labor behind the army that e fights assures the overthrow of Germany and Jae pan, and the restoration of a free world, when the - dawn of peace breaks through the dark night of bar-1 barism that engulfs the weary world. ????????????????? s AMERICA ____________ America Is vast mountain ranges and fertile valleys, great cities and skyscrapers, mines and mills and farms, peaceful coves in the mountains, placid lakes, d lovely streams flowing toward the seas, churches and n schools, theatres and colleges, newspapers and radic it stations, villages and small towns, men singing at i. their work and women devoted to their homes, little it children playing on the lawns and along the streets d roving happily over the fields. All these things and more are America. They arc i. ours. They shall remain ours; for by all that is holy e American men and women are determined that the p America we know shall continue. y To preserve it we have sent our young men across J- thousands of miles of sea to meet the menace before ie it can reach our shores, and to drive it back into its ls | lair, and then utterly destroy it. That is the meaning of marines in the Solomons Le airmen in China, ships plying the waters and under is them in the four quarters of the globe, soldiers in it Australia, and Ireland, Egypt and England, Iceland i- and India. w That is why little children gather scrap metal i- and bring it to the channels of trade to go to the d, making of guns and tanks and planes. That is whj all America is at work this Labor Day, in homes and farms, factories and mines, everywhere, driving to ward tne glorious goal of ultimate victory. America We are America. > ? ; ty Politics will take a back seat in this country this s- fall, despite the fact that there is a Congressional election. The people and the governmnt are more in interested in preserving our nation than in interna] v~ politics. That is well and good, le )n Dehydrating food like our grandmothers did is a good idea. The food can be saved in this way withoul the use of sugar or can rubbers. Just take the watei out of the food, and it will keep. Just like we will b< 10 - 1 | preserved wnen we are dry-cleand with taxes ets. lg ~ l 1 YOUR HOME MERCHANTS er 1 ASK YOU TO "BUY AT HOME" tie L X I OUR DEMOCRi Much-neeoed glycerine, mui made from fats.,. so americ thrifty tradition of their t excess cooking grease into are turning it in to 8utcherEVEGY PROP HELPS H THERE /S SOMETH/s I nrrol NnfirPC ^ Li^gUl A 1 Vfciwu j A Notice Of Sale Of Land * For Delinquent Taxes ?
