WASHINGTON, Feb. 2 (UP)— Opponents of a federal ballot for servicemen claimed new support to day as the house and senate neared a vote on the explosive soldier vote issue The senate arranged to meet an hour earlier than usual under an agreement to vote by noon on at least one proposed amendment to the administration-backed UucasGreen bill providing federal ballots for servicemen in the November elec tions. The hou ■ , deliberating the admin iatration - f posed measure to 1< av the absentee voting strictly up to the states, limited dehate sharply, an-anti-administration leaders were eon fident that a senate showdown coul> be delayed until the house can pas the senate-vote bill, either late to day or tomorrow. The senate agreement was to vot on the amendment by Sen. John H Overton, 1».. I -a . which would stijej late that only the states may de termine the qualification* of a voter Overton fought to repeal the 1942 federal law which eliminated poll taxes and registration for members of the- armed forces. Administration leaders were confident they could defeat the Overton amendment. They hoped, too, thai cnee the senate gets started voting it would swt op through half a doz en others offered by Republican. 1 and southern Democrats and pass th< federal war ballot before the housi can conclude work on its bill. An entirely new substitute, em bodying some of the features of a' least three of the pending amend merits, was pulled together, by ; coalition of Republicans and south ern Democrats. Dea lers in the nov eff< rt were Sens. Robert A. Taf: K. O, Joseph H. Ball, R, Minn James O. Hastland, !>., Miss.; an John D McClellan, D., Ark.
Reds Bid For Stronger Ham
WASHINGTON, Feb. 2.—(UP) The Soviet Union’s decision to givi her 16 states independent voice it their foreign affairs was seen toda; as a Russian hid for a stronger han at the peace table and a move t match the votes which the United States and Britain could muster In any post-war world organization. The Russian decision, announced officially yesterday by Soviet Foreign Commissar V. M. Molotov, was believed in most diplomatic quarters t • be directed primarily at Great Britain which, in the Dengue of Nations enjoyed the added advantage of a vot ■ for each member of the British Commonwealth. Russia had but one. Separate votes for states or countries controlled or influenced by Mose w and Imndon would put the United States at a decided disadvantage in any future league where, presumably. important decisions would be made by majority vote. Many observers, however, polntqd out that the United States would not necessarily stand alone in any postwar international organization, since the considerations that might piompt it io vote “aye” on any question would probably bring similar votes irom other western hemisphere nations Canada, as a member of the British Commonwealth, could of course be an exception.

It’s odd but true Ibet most people never give a thought to the fact that a house can grow, too. Even though you haven't done a single thing to improve your home in recent yeers, its value has increased nevertheless because of fhe general rise in price levels due fo the war. But, unfortunately, inlurance doesn't "grow" automatically to keep pace with increased values.
Wo will gladly chaclt this situation to make certain that your property and insurance match each other exactly.
