j NORTH . ... »outhj
The saying, “East is east and
S west is west ami never the twain |
shall meet” might well be applied ,
to 'elections in our country by
substituting the words north and ,
south.
There have been exceptions. In -
1928, Florida, North Carolina, Ok
lahoma, Texas and Virginia all I
backed Herbert Hoover against;
Alfred Smith. But in practically j
every other election since __ the |
South supported Grant in 1872, it I
has been a foregone conclusion
that the Republican candidate
starts the race by spotting his
opponent to the 124 electoral
votes of the 11 states referred to
as the solid South. In addition
to the 5 states named above, the
other members of this group are
Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, ,
Louisiana, Mississippi and South
Carolina.
To keep the record straight,,
Oklahoma did vote Republican
in 1980, ffiving Htrciing a small
majority, and Louisiana sup
ported Hays in 1876. I believe
that covers all exceptions since
the election of President Grant.
In the northern camp there
has been greite? fluctuation
which was most evident in 1936
when ail but two states—Ver
mont and Maine-voted for
Roosevelt. Vermont is the only
state in the nation wjiich has
never voted Democratic, Maine
having ventured into the Demo
cratic fold in 1912 when, be
cause of a split in the Republi
can ticket, that statte gave tv
plurality to Wilson.
PROTESTS . . . absence
I have recently been studying
a poll on the coming election. It
seems safe to say that the South
will once again stand solidly be
hind the Democratic candidate.
There has been considerable re
bellion against the New Deal in
some quarters of the South, but
not enough to in licate much prob
ability of Mr. Dewey getting any
of the 124 electoral votes which
1 ■ ident Roosevelt has carried
in his vest pocket ever since he
went into the White House.
One southerner queried in this
poll said. “Nine out of ten of the
people here are condemning the
New- Deal but they’ll still vote
for Roosevelt when they go to
the polls.” Another said, “The I
Democrats who object to the
New Deal will not protest by vot- I
ing for a Republican. If they pro- I
test at all, it will be by staying ,
away from the polls.”
The election totals show that, ]
although the South has been "In .
the bag” for the Democrats in
most every election year, the
one-party tradition is not to the |
liking of a good many southerns. [
It may he a long time before the
South will support a Republican
ticket, but it is quite possible
l hat a Republican by any other
name might attract a good por
tion of the southern vote.
INDEPENDENTS 25%
As for the North, which is tra- ,
ditionuliy Republican, there has |
been considerable shifting back
and forth. There is much less of
the sectional loyalty to party dis
played in the South. Hut there
are many towns in the North
which always have given almost

‘WAR-1S-OVER’ OPTIMISM
There is nothing new in the
fact that people on the winning
aide of a war relax their efforts
when everything seems to be go
ing well. This habit is as old as
history and has lost many a cam
ctatign and a number of wfcrrs.
N'apoleon credited much of his
success to the fact that he was
able to keep his armies, and the
citizens back home, on the qui
vive up until the time victoiy
was actually won.
When the United States enter
ed this present war, most every
one—except the Germans. M. La
val. Mr. Quisling and a few oth
ers—believed the United Nations
would win both against Germany
and against Japan, and today it
looks as though the German j
uhase was on the point of being
successfully concluded. In fact, j
failure does not appear possible j
with our forces driving through
France from two directions and
with Russia hammering success-1
fully on the Eastern front.
But in 1918 the Germans were!
smashing again toward the Marne j
and the future looked black in
the capitals of France, England
and America. The Russians were
out of the war and the Raised was
concentrating his combined forc
es in what seemed a “non-stop"
advance on the Western front. The
United States had not yet landed
a sufficient number of men to
be able to turn the tide; al
though certain American leg -
ments near the Marne were vi
tally effective in slowing the
German advance, for which the
American army has never receiv
ed proper credit.
Then—with great suddenness
and with much fanfare—suppos
edly Communist inspired strikes
occurred in many of the muni
tions factories of Germany.
These strikes wc e put down im
mediately and drastically, but the
harm had been done. The whole
morale of the German army seem
ed to crack, based to a great ex
test upon the feeling; that if the
home front cared so little for the
men who were fighting theii bat
tles. then there wasn’t much use
their sacrificing their lives fur
ther. On the other hand, the Al
lied forces became inspired by
the crack in the German morale
and .ore many months the war
cam ■ a victorious end for our j
side
isn't claimed by historians
(fiiat these nation-wide strikes
wen* the sole agency responsible
for the Germfun collapse, but
there is no doubt in the minds of
many that the result might have
been very different had not this
one seemingly comparatively un
important incident occurred This
is just one of the many cases in
the history of warfare which
proves that a war is not over
until it is won.
A very recent example of the
■sd-callea ‘Vai Js over" opti
mism W|U3 a rtyiort from the ;
Brooklyn, N.Y., Red Cross Blood i
Donor center that cancellations I
of appointments for blood dona- ,
tions in one day were about 164
out of 564. (And this occurs, un- i
fortunately, at a time when there
will be more and more wounded
Americans in need of plasma.)
Another illustration is the spread
of strikes—strikes which will de
lay tde construction of subma
rines upon which we depend to
whittle down the Japanese mer
chant marine upon which they in
turn depend for the life lines to
the various nations which they
have conquered since the -.tart of
the war; strikes which actually
have prevented much blood plas
ma reaching our wounded men
at the front; strikes in munition
plants, seemingly all over the
country; strikes which the au
thorities allow to occur partially
for the reason {that th,ey too
consider the war practically over.
One thing we can be sure of:
Jn ,ratio, as tl\p {Allied lmime
fronts relax, the enemy home
fronts will reduoble their exer
tions.

What Made Our
Invasion a Success?
With 57 blue stars on our Serv
ice Flag, our town’s been mighty
excited over the way things are
progressing on the Continent.
“Shucks,” says Bob New
comb happily, “1 knew we were
going to lick them Nazis, soon
as the Invasion started.”
** I knew it before that," says
Doc Hollister. “1 knew *t from
the way our boys were gciting
along with their British bud
dies in those English camps.
They had a lot of differences
to overcome before they could
work together as a team. And
ihey overcame ’em."
From where I sit, Doc's
mighty right. The success of our
Invasion began months ago—
when the English Tommies and
the Gl Joe s got together over
friendly beer, and games of
darts—and learned to like each
other in spite of differences in
tastes and habits.
And that spirit of tolerance
and understanding between
men and nations will go far to
wards building a secure Peace,
