the bait and start objecting to the official unconditional terms. Fortunately not large enough or influential enough to undermine the allied policy of total military defeat of the enemy. At Jeast we hope not. But even if this latest German trick does not succeed completely abroad, it is probably good propaganda at home. Dittmar says it is now a “question tion of self- ‘preservation or annihilation,” this putting 4he blame on the allies—though of course the allies have stated through Churchill and; others that unconditional surrender would not mean- annihilation of Germany or of the German people. Partial annihilation is coming through Germany's senseless prolongation of the en rather than accept unconditional defeat.

Propaganda Preview :

DITTMAR'S propaganda isa preview of the line the Junkers and others will use after defeat to justify the war, while explaining away defeat and plotting another conquest. After asserting that Germany “has to continue (to fight) as long as our enemies stick to their war afms, , . As long as reason and better understanding have not. replaced this determination” to destroy Germany, he swings into the old familiar refrain of the innocent and good Germany put upon by the wicked "allies: “If this (allied) determination did not exist, if the world we face had been ready ‘honestly to recognize the living rights of a great, capable and hardworking nation, no reason could have been seen why this misery had to fill the world once again for half a <-deeade, and will continue to fill it” We can just hear the comments of our troops at the the front on that one—but we can't print them.

Fast as’ is. the action, in France, many thousand ballot * applications are pouring into this country from there. In {roop headquarters in Burmese jungles, in Italy, the Marianas and France, Posters are up telling how they may vote. Early this year, when it was contended” that dependency on state ballots would mean little soldier voting, the major difficulty foreseen was that most state laws allowed too little time between mailing out of absentee ballots and the date when they had to be returned. Liberalize Provisions But 39 state. legislatures met to grant more liberal soldier vote provisions, and’ so the federal ballot now is considered chiefly as supplemental, - available to overseas soldiers of 20 states which have authorized its use if siate ballots rn not reached. them. Even when. the federal ballot is used, state ballots, on which the soldier may vote for state and local offices as well as federal, may ‘be used later to supersede it. Here are the mechanics of soldier voting as devised by the war department, which has been charged

{by Senator Taft (R. O.), with being

“unduly anxious” to get federal thallots ‘Into soldiers’ hands: The army distributes cards to all soldiers on which they may apply for ballots of their own states (this hag been done). IL they wish to vote, soldiers fill out these cards and forward them to secretaries of state in their -home states.
