For no one man would be capable of making laws which would universally satisfy such a vast mixture as is ours; and only force could make us obey some of bis rulings. And force means loss of freedom— that enviable state of being which can best be 'appreciated by those who have lived under, observed, or studied the opposite in foreign lands. And knowing ail this—there are yet people who want to do away with the keystone of our personal liberty —T that political unit which makes the defference between freedom and servitude —the Congress of the United States. It wouldn't make much differ ence who the president was af ter that—he would have to be a dic tator. We cap call one man rule by any name we like—but it is of nature “dictatorship”. Because if the citizens do not help him run the country thru their representatives, be must do it alone, alld as lie sees best and by dictation. Those who sincerely believe Mr. Koosevelt could manage the nation best — alone; and those who for sinister reasons attempt to discredit our Congress to the point. where the people will throw it out, should remember that .Mr. Boosevelt cannot serve tot ever and that some day some one o|se will have to till his place And that ''some one” may he a man of vastly different stripe; a man who would crush them after he had squeezed them dry.

That may he a startling thought to some Mr. ami Mrs. Average Citizens, but it is a fact being rockonel by some of the more astute politicians who have been figuring put such things. The rot-so-smart politicos who overlook or deliberately ignore the potential impact of the te male vote may well rue their blindness. And deservedly so. That is if women use their vot ing power, individually and col lectively, to vote seriously, in telligently for what they want.
