Obviously this is such a serious question that it needs to be cleaned up at once, preferably by some action that would take the issue directly to the Supreme Court for the earliest possible determination. We are not. at all concerned whether or not an election will be held in 1942. We are deeply interested, however, in having a legal, functioning government running Inisnapelis in 1948.

"HE President deserves praise for greatly strengthening = the meaningless fourth point i in the Roosevelt-Churchill pronouncement of peace aims. . It will be recalled that the Atlantic ‘conference pledge or international equality of trade and raw materials ‘was nullified by the insertion of this joker— “with due respect | for their (E ritish, and American) existing. obligations.” British and American raw-material monop- | lies, credit controls; and trade and tariff barriers, are the chief reasons for the lack of equality for other nations. In his L L. O. address Mr. Rooseveli. warned that defeat of Hitlerism is necessary but not enough; that “this war, like the last war, will produce nothing but destruction: ess we prepare for the future now.” He added:

ANY mibisiors. are ndignant because: Mayor La+ : Guardia, as chief of the Office of Civilian Defense, has ent them the outline of a sermon which he suggests they ver next Sunday. The objections are not against the sermon’s ‘theme— smocracy and the importance of freedom of religion—but nst the fact that the suggestion comes from a ‘govern-: nt official. Dr. Charles Clayton Morrison, editor of the pn-denominational Christian Century, asserts that Mr. La jardia’s action is proof. that “totalitarianism has actually appened here.’ ” We incline to a milder view, that Mr.’ LaGuardia’s sugt estion was an error of judgment. Certainly the Govern- | nt has no business even to be appearing to tell the coun-. ’s pastors what to preach.
