Sims, Wuhinstop Correspondent Leaders Not Overly Optimistic. Officials Suggest Long War. James F. Brynes, Director of War Mobilization, glares that "there is nothing to justify the hope of uncon ditional surrender of the Axis pow ers in the near future." In his radio address to the people of this country, the former Supreme Court justice expressed confidence in ultimate, overwhelming victory over both Germany and Japan, but declar ed that he was "authorized by the President to say that, in his judg ment, as of today, "the major battles lie ahead of us, not behind us." Along this same line, Prime Minis ter Winston Churchill, in Quebec, issued h vigorous official denial that he ever predicted the end of the war in six months. The Prime Minister denies that he made any such state ment. The words of these high ofiic hs are spoken to prevent the people of this country from concluding that the war is over. It is true that the trend of the war has completely re versed itself in the past year but it is, without doubt, equally true that the hardest fighting lies ahead of the Anglo-Americans. Obviously, it is possible for the Axis powers to collapse in six months, but it would be foolish for us to depend upon it. The best way 1 to expedite victory is to increase our pressure upon the enemy. This' requires increasing activity on the home front. Any let-up in produc tion will give the Axis a breathing spell and lengthen the war. Self-Detenmination Problems. Idea Not Easily Applied The principle of self-determination" was enunciated by President Woodrow Wilson during the last war. It has been emphasized during the course of the present struggle and The question arises as to the "peoples" who are to have "the right to choose the form of Govern ment under which they will live." Obviously, it must apply to the peo ples of Europe, dominated by alien governments and unable to establish nations of their own. The principle orobablv annlips tn the people of Southern Ireland who have asserted the right of "self Hp- termination" against the ttritish Em pire, and. presumably, it also annhcs to the people of Ulster who have de cided to remain a part of the same Empire. the Dal!:an States. The threat in the Me literranean area compels Germany to devote se rious attention to its defenses, which weakens the Teutonic effort in Rus sia. While the Soviet bears the bulk of the war against Germany, it receiving aid in the form of ma terials, the aerial offensive and the campaign in' the Mediterranean. If, in addition to these activities, the Anglo-Americans open an -attack in Northern France of sufficient mag nitude to compel Germany to with draw troops from Russia, the burden of the war would shift from Russia to the democracies. While this development is inevita ble in the course of the struggle against the Axis, we do not believe that Stalin or the Soviet Government have any just cause to be suspicious of the democranVs oith,.u If these conclusions be correct, ' easily possible to understand whv the does thp1 nrinninlo innl., f iU M , . . . .. hammedans of India, in their demand tor Pakistan and the Hindus, in their demand for an Indian nation, com plete and intact?

Their task is to keep the flowing blood streiim free of an excess of toxic impurities. The act of living life !c is constantly producing waste matter the kidneys must remove from the blood if good heath is to endure. When the kidneys fail to function as Nature intended, there is retention of waste that maycause body-wide dis tress.
