Robert Taft, Republican, who ! was elected U. S. senator in Ohio and 'ChKmp Clark, Democrat, reelected in Missouri, are probably the two Individuals who gained the great advantage as a result of Tuesday's election. Mr. Willis threatens a contest, which is expected in such a close election, The best information is however that in each county the election was fairly conducted and that there is nothing upon which such a battle could be based or that would change the results. It's time to forget the election I and get down to the business of making a living. A glance at the market page of any newspaper will show that business is on the upgrade with indications it will continue so for a long time to come. Let's be good friends with every one and let's do the best for the entire community. The workers on both sides for the state ticket and United States senator will always know they had‘an election in 1938. The returns showed a nip and tuck battle with first one side and then the other ahead. The legislature will also be close, especially in the lower house and the 1939 session of the general assembly promises to be unusually interesting. The Democrats have much to ' encourage them in the recent election, winning many important offices in the state and nation. While the Republicans have made the predicted gain of 75 or 80 seats in congress they are still hopelessly in the minority and President Roosevelt will continue through his second term with a friendly legislative branch of the government to support him.

I Though the past several months have not been the best business ; months in history, they gave and gave liberally because they believed in progress and in standing behind the industries of the community.

After i ' this he will be on the defense for ' whatever record he makes as representative in congress, will subject him to the criticisms and fault . findings of a public that is hard : to please for any extended length iof time. Twas always thus and always will be. — luterest here has centered the past three days in the outcome of | j the state election as regards Judge i Huber M. DeVoss, a candidate for the appellate court and Frank Thompson of Bluffton, a candidate > I for auditor ot state. The vote is j so close that the official count will probably be the only thing that will definitely decide it. Their thousands of friends in this part of the state have been pulling as hard as they can for the break in I their favor. Just when the United States be- j gins to enforce legislation curtailing hours in industry. Germany is 1 preparing to increase its working day. Dr. Ley, minister of labor, asserted in Berlin recently that the 8-hour day is "un-German,” ] and started laying plans for length- I ening working hours to meet the j labor shortage which is becoming increasingly acute. The German move still has not precipitated a worldwide trend toward longer I hours, though it is largely reTspoffstMero? the recent French moves to nullify the 40-hour week ' laws in favor of longer working hours, with the wedge being made in the defense industries where an appeal to patriotism can be made —Business Week. TWENTY YEARS AFTERWARD— Twenty years have passed since ‘ that uay when the entire world went mad with happiness at the word that the Great War had end ed. Everywhere people rejoiced in the belief that the war to end wars had come to its end and that never again would boys become fodder for cannon. Today this country, out of all which took part in that great conflict. can still rejoice. There have been other wars. Governments have crumbled. Others have surrendered their liberties for bread. 1 Some obey the order of dictators, in Spain and China the sound of airplanes means death, not progress. This country has the leadership . of a man who knows what war meant, and hated war. As a younger man President Roosevelt assisted in guiding our navy and the transportation of boys to foreign lands. He believed then, and believes now. that there is a better way to settle problems. He has kept this country safe from the hatreds and jealousies that have swept Europe aud Asia. He believed that a good neighbor is better than a quarreling neighbor. The children of 20 years ago now are parents. The boys who fought the last war are now middle i aged. The girls who found tragedy and not romance from that conflict are older now and mothers. ! So, on this memorable Armistice day. we make new pledges and new consecrations. We pledge ! again that this country will never enter a world conflict, but will defend this land from any attack. Here is the home of democracy. Here is its last line of defense. For this country, we really fought • a war to end all wars. We will

SEVERE QUAKE NEAR ALASKA One Os Severest Earthquakes On Record Is Reported tßy United Press) ! One of the severest earthquakes I ever recorded was traced today to an epicenter in or near the Aleutian Islands, west of Alaska. Residents at Kanakunak on the Aleutian chain reported a temblor but it was not felt at Fairbanks or at Juneau on the mainland. It was severe enough to cause a deflnite tidal reaction in the Hawaiian Islands aud to send seismograph needles into wild gyrations thousands of miles distant. Commander J. H. Peters of the I'. S. geodetic survey at Honolulu reported that the tide went out < halt a foot aud came back about seven-tenths of a foot before receding again. Prediction of the tidal "wpve" I was made by Dr. Thomas Jaggar, I noted volcanist, who said that a ' wave might strike the eastern shore of the Island of Maui as re- ; suit of the quake. Rumors of impending disaster swept through the islands and newspapers were besieged with calls from frightened Honolulu residents. Reports circulated that army headquarters had sent out buses to pick up children of officers and soliders at public schools. Both the army and navy denied Issuing such orders. Civil and military authorities aided in calming the populace. When the “tidal wave" finally arrived many persons had gathered on the beaches to witness it. The change in the waves was almost imperceptible. First seismograph recording of the shock was made at Fordham university, in New York, where nine needles were shaken off drums 12 inches wide at 2:28 p m. (CST) Thursday. Father oJseph Lynch estimated the eipcenter was south of Alaska and said had the quake occurred ashore, “we would never have heard from that place again." The needle on Selfridge's seismo-

Sharp tremors along the south- 1 west coast of Mexclu terrorized per son's who had been routed from their homes by a quake the day before. Many were afraid to go indoors, and spent the night in the | streets and fields. ANTI-SEMITISM (CONTINUED FttUM .°AGI' ONK) on the world war cenotaph on Armistice day broke a precedent' when they cheered the prime minister, but the British press was horrified by developments in Germany. Even British newspapers which have been considered pro-Geriuun were Indignant at the anti-Jewiah outbreak. The liberal News Chronicle said Hutt Germany “has delivered herself over to an orgy of savagery which will send ai
