The Fall elections may help clarify some of these; confusing questions. One! question is food for all Americans, first. So-called: capital and labor ought to, have sense enough to settle their own affairs by taking | up all the slack unemploy-' ment. That will only be pos} sible if the masses and) classes play fair and square | with each other as they did | in the days before the great sit-down strikes in Michigan | that were, unfortunately,| endorsed and supported by the President of the United States and the Governor of Michigan. SIZE OF ARMED FORCES. The peak strength of the! American army was reach-| ed on May 31, 1945 when 8,291,336 persons were in| the service. They have been! whittled down pretty fast | but there are still 1,600,000! officers and men on duty.| Congress was asked a few days ago to double the num- ber of officers in the regular army, and it was explained that approximately four-| ffiths of the proposed in- crease would go to the Army Air Foree. New plans for the Congress provide in- creasing the number of} army colonels from 1044 to} 2108, and the forepart of July about 9500 regular officers will be appointed. The biggest peacetime military forces in ‘all ‘the history of the United States are being maintained right now, Congress fights about such matters as the “teen- age draft,” and makes com-| promi that got held up in Congress, and then off they | go on another tangent. In the end the military forces get/| larger and larger. The theory seems to be that they | have to have great military} strength to keep out of war —and at the same time to! fight at the drop of the hat.| The Russians want every- thing unanimous; they ex- pect everybody to agree with them, or they won't play ball.
