At home, Americans looking at the war through rose colored glasses find little to get excited about. Senator Henry Cabot Lodge, Jr., reporting from Pear] Harbor, says “our fighting men are mad because of the false optimism coming from our news reporting, our communiques, our radio commentators and our desk writers.” In the main, however the false news doesn’t come : from these men but from the censor who catches the truth and holds it in his sieve. Newsmen are sending in reports through one of the most strict censorship policies ever seen, especially for this country. The soldier on the fighting front believes that if he can stand the fighting, the people back home can Elmer Davis recently had the matter out with the President and executive directives were issued to the War, Navy and State departments evidently for the purpose of getting a more realistic picture. Censorship started out as a means of keeping vital information from the enemy. But it has been used for everything else. Most Americans have realized all along that they have not been getting the true picture of the fighting. War is the most dreadful occupation there is, Only the brutal truth of what our soldiers are going through can bring the same cooperation from those on the home front. Perhaps the German govenment must paint a rosy picture of war for the people of Germany, be- cause the war is not popular with the German people, and they must be mislead. But the American people are behind this war. And they should be given the facts. Jobs Still to Be Done (Cincinnnati Enquirer) One of the regrettable results of recent Allied 2aills on war fronts is the tendency among women production workers to leave their jobs and return to their homes. This perfectly understandable, but none- theless damaging, fact is commented upon by in- dustrial leaders and manpower administrations in many areas. The part which women have been playing on the home front hardly can be overemphasized. We have noted many pretty news pictures, showing strikingly beautiful ladies, wearing strikingly designed work | suits, and doing all sorts of interesting and fascinat- ing tasks. These pictures hardly tell the full story, for women are devoting themselves not only to inter- esling and fascinating jobs, but to hard, laborious | drudgery. They are doing it because the work has to be done; because they have been anxious to bring back quickly the beloved boys and men who represent them overseas. We've seen a good cross-section of these wartime workwomen. We've seen them, grimy and tired, serv- icing the engines of transcontinental trains. We've seen them, in boots and overalls, doing man’s tasks in grain fields and around dairy barns. We've watched them in industrial shops, where goods of war are rush- ing down production lines. We've seen crews of Rus- sian women, sea-driven and ocean-hardened, bring their ships into American ports. It would be a crippling blow to the Allied war machine if these vital workers, now that victory ap- proaches, should lay down the tools of war for the tools of the home. Much as their homes need them, their nations need them more. Before the men can come back, these feminine soldiers of the civilian front still have battles to win; still have jobs, the stand knowing what the fighing is like. completion of which is the essence of victory. | | HAPPY BIRTHDAY OCTOBER 2 Roy Carrigan Doris Hegstad Mrs. W.

In this, he was 95 per-| jcent right. For years American | ‘diplomacy has been warped and fweakened by the fact that U. S.| ldiplomats married foreign wives. | { Today, for instance Ambassador | (Norman Armour, one of the ablest «and most fair-minded of U. 8. en-| ‘voys, probably is barred as under-| ‘gecretary of state because he mar-, ied a White Russian, Princess | §Myra Koudacheff.
