Election day stay-at-homes are just as much a | threat to the democratic way of life as the dictator abroad. When small votes are cast, it is too easy for the machine men to work their way into office. You can see machine politics at work in the | present campaign, attempts to swing large blocks of votes through organizations, instead of leaving the individual free to cast his vote according to his best judgment. But a Jarge vote is not only a representative vote, but an honest one. We urge everyone in Juneau and Douglas to vote tomorrow. Vote according to your own judgment. Vote not according to directions given to you by anyone else. And remember, you will be voting not only for your- self, but for the men at the battlefront who have | something more important on their minds right now. If we are to emerge successfully from the cat- astrophic effects of total warfare, we should not handicap ourselves during the critical transition period with demagogues—men and pressure groups promoting unscrupulously their private ends. Instead we should create an overwhelming popu- ator in his mile round trip. was going to get for this junket | shrugged: Go-Round (Continuea irom Page Omne) ment Camp, Florence, Ariz, ex-| pressing his happiness over his new | he had had where there were no poll tax.

Measures of vaper BANTAM BILBO Don't hold your breath waiting for the Senate to crack down on boisterous little Senator Theodore (“The Man"”) Bilbo for his ‘whitei supremacy” speech to the Mississ-| ippi Legislature. Senators are noted for sticking together when a col- league is under fire and it would be a rare departure from form if they took any action against Bilbo.| ‘The Mississippian was well aware of this when he returned to Wash- ington after telling the Legislature | that the “alleys would outvote the avenues” if the District of Colum- bia was given suffrage. Cocky as ever, despite the editorial brickbats he received from various news- papers, the bantam-sized Senator uncorked some purple epithets re-| garding a mass meeting of citizens who are demanding his ouster from | the Senate’s District of Columbia | Committee. Asked if he had been invited to the meeting, Bilbo screamed, “Hell, | no!

Intelligent voters should discount the irredeemable promises of crackpot vote seekers. It is our hope that in the coming period of transi- tion and American greatness and recovery, public measures and men will be judged by their contribu- tion to the material well-being of all of the people, not factions of the people, that the vogue for word- mongers and showmen, who lack the real genius for the administration of governmental affairs, will be a thing of the past And as the public becomes more sophisticated it will resent demagogic tricks to set class against class and section against section. The public also will grow to resent the attempts of those entrusted with public office to control elec~ tions in moves to make our elective offices hereditary, something to be passed -down from one demagogue to another as rewards for services well done, in order to keep those offices within a small and powerful clique. During the last several weeks we have discussed certain candidates with relation to the necessity for retaining the democratic way of life as set up for us by our forefathers. For that reason we have opposed several can-! dates, We have endorsed none.

The Federation went on record at the conven- tion as not endorsing any candidate, according to the minutes. However, this letter certainly conveys the, impression that it is an expression of the Federation, | and there is no doubt as to whom Mr. Marshall endorses.

COX, Plaintiff, THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE— HAPPY BIRTHDAY APRIL 24 George Ocjanas Esther Sorensen Earle Monagle A. Berntsen G. G. Brown Ole Scarbo Mus. Beatrice Stoddard Mrs. Hazel Clifton HOROSCOPE | “The stars incline but do not compel” TUESDAY, APRIL 25 Benefic aspects rule powerfully today; these are most favorable for initiative on a large scale. The morning is auspicious for trade. | HEART AND HOME: Women should find this a day of more than| average good fortune. Much hap-| piness will come - through letters. It is a lucky date for signing con- | tracts or for making decisions. Love affaifs may be lukewarm under this | | sway. | BUSINESS AFFAIRS: Restive | under Government restrictions, | American businessmen may de- mand more freedom of initiative as | they prepare_for postwar conditions. Prosperity is presaged for next month. Much attention will be! given to production of certain neg- | lected items pertaining to munit- | ions. NATIONAL ISSUES: Freedom from want will be much stressed in planning for the futufte in the United States. Under the influence of the Aquarian age this nation {will no longer tolerate neglect. of children. They will be accepted as a responsibility of the Government and the country's greatest asset. INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS: The number of casualties by the end of this year will be so great that all the warring nations will| |realize the necessity of ending the | wholesale killing of the strongest of the males in all countries. The stars |are read as presaging a sudden| surge toward peace this autumn,| although the conflict in the Pa-| cific will probably continue until| 1947 or even longer. Persons whose birthdate it is have| the augury of a year in which to !expect good fortune except in love affairs. Financial speculation should be avoided. Children born on this day probs ably will be self-willed and dfl‘l‘- {mined to live as independently as possible. They may be successful in novel lines of work. (Copyright, 1944) | gate.
