Casualties Are Never Light AND DOWN the quiet streets of this country and along the country the of America are paying the price of D-day in Europe, Casualty are catching up at last to the grim which began June 6 in Normandy. They are long and growing longer. Casualties are never light. The war and navy departments shouldn use the expression.

Newspapers and radio should shun It. if the Germans could be driven out of France with loss of only one life, that still would be the supreme loss tor the mother, wife or sweetheart who had to hear the grief of shattered hopes. The people were warned that the price would be heavy; they knew It. The men who landed on the beaches knew what a new rrout was going to mean; they had plenty of time to think about the danger they faced. They had the example of the air men, who had been fighting the enemy tor many months.

They had the example of their own troops in Italy, Sicily and North Africa They bad the example of Americans in the war against Japan. of knew victory could not be won cheaply. But until the cost of war strikes home, it can only be estimated, not understood. That is happening now, day by day the secretary of war regrets to announce he died heroically between the crosses row on row. America not fighting with money and material now, but with thousands of lives.

The survivors who pay In sorrow for the sacrifice made by the dead deserve the sympathy of the nation. They alone are qualified to speak of the cost of the war, because they are bearing the ultimate cost. The money can he repaid and the materials replaced, but the lives are gone forever. So Far As It Has Gone, The CIO Political Group Appears Better Organized Than Either Party Bv MARK SULLIVAN Storm Signals In Philadelphia IllTLER and his last-ditch win take hope from the transportation timip and accom ptnylng rlota In some of the hope they take will he legitimate. The things that have happened In that traditionally sedate city are storm Mgnals, When transportation workers walk out on an ised strike over so trivial a provocation as the upgrading of Negro workers, when a great city is paralyxed and its population terrorised by rumbling of race riots, when civil disorder grows so serious that appeals must be taken to the Chief Executive for military has right to hope.

Germany and Japan have one last chance in the war. The Allies may fail to fighting one another, or in the United States, which Is the key to their war effort, civilian discipline may crumble. Naturally, all Americans can be sure these things happen, because they are confident of their national strength. The Germans and Japanese having no confidence, may be expected to Jump at what looks like prooi that they have sired up the situation correctly and the United States is coming apart at the seams. We cannot condemn them tor reaching that conclusion from the circumstantial evidence, it we heard that Hamburg was paralyzed by insurrection and riot at this stage in the war, it would be clinching evidence that Germany was about to collapse from within.

far as It has i gone, the Congress of Indus trial Organisations Is better ganlzed for getting voters to the polls, than either the Republican or Democratic parties There may be election districts here and there In which exceptionally energetic local lead crx of the old parties are as thor- oughly organized, or plan to be. But with the old parties, generally speaking, minute organization to Mr. Sullivan reach In their homes and working pi has to a large extent gone out of use or become half-hearted, Getting voters to register on the re qulred and to go to the polls on election day la the final test of political organization. For this purpose, the work and preparation of the CIO Political Action Committee, already carrier! out In some districts and planned In all they reach. Is thorough and painstaking beyond anything that either of the old parties commonly practice.

The HO la exceptionally equipped for It. It has to whom organization a familiar art. it Is their profession. These ataffa dur- log the last eight have done the arduous work of organizing millions of into CIO labor unions. To transfer their personnel and their to the work of organizing for political action at the polls Is simple.

T.V THE old parties, the work of 1 precinct organization, getting voters to register and go to the polls, la ordinarily done by local political officeholders, aided in some by volunteers lhrplred by a casual hurst of politics 1 enthusiasm. In place of these, the CIO has the local officers of unions in constant and Intimate contact with their members. Directing there are 14 branch through the country, set up speclflrally for (he political work of the CIO. The difference between thorough organization of this kind, and the lack of It, Is In many cases the difference between winning elections and losing them. This condition has been described by an old-time political leader who understood the value of organization.

Assume that In an election district, or a state, or the na tlon, 53 percent of the voters favor party and 47 percent party If party has thorough organization for getting voters to the polls, It may win Party even though It has a majority In thought and Intention, may lose because of the percentage who, through negligence or otherwise, fall to reg. later, or stay at home on election day. The CIO does not reach the whole country, only where It has The total membership of the CIO Is some 5.000,000 presumably nearly all adults and voters, out of a total voting population of some 50,000,000, TTUT even so small a proportion of all the voters, organized to get to the as the CIO will be, might account for a narrow majority In a cloae election, assuming that other voters are not so thoroughly organised, which is likely. Moreover, the CIO Political Action Committee by no means confines its activity to reaching CIO members. On the contrary, It urges Its to make contact with all the voters In eech community.

The objective, as suggested by the instructions and propaganda It sends out, ia to cause all of the CIO, or so many of them as it may be able to Inspire, to become and practical workers for political purposes It describes Itself as a movement. The immediate and eager objective of the CIO In the present campaign Is to redact President emphasized over and over. In strongly emotional appeals. Aside from this. It claims to he non-partisan.

It says that, offices other than the presidency. it will in some cases support the candidate of one party, In other the other party. It may he that in some cases the CIO will support Republican candidates. Where this happens, It Is likely to be in many cases for the purpose of defeating a ocratic officeholder whom the CIO does not like. The principal secondary purpose, next to that of reelecting Mr, Roosevelt, is to elect members of congres who will uphold him.

To this end, the CIO may oppose some old-school Democrats now In congress snd running for reelection, who have not upheld President Roosevelt nor been satisfactory to the (7IO. Some such crat already been defeated, partly by the CIO In primary elections. Generally, the purpose of the CIO Political Action Committee will be to elect Democrats. In Pennsylvania last week the state branch of the CIO Political Action Committee Indorsed the statewide Democratic ticket. 1 ft(4 New York Tribune OBJECTORS TO THE GOVERNtAENT The Once Over By H.

The states were elbowed aside because ol many things, not the least of which was their own had habit of toadying to Washington. That was what Washington wanted. Then, when they let the central government get virtually complete possession oi the power of the purse, it was only a matter of time until the states became mere dependencies. The Republican governors, sparked ny Gov.

Dewey and encouraged by Gov. bricker a demonstration that resentment of federal bureaucratic encroachment is a real talking point with the country, say they will do something about it. l'hat remains to be seen. They will do something about it only it they honestly feel like doing something ana are wining to stick together. If they intend to use states rights only as a talking point during a national campaign, that would be a shametul thing, somehow, however, Gov.

Dewey has conveyed the impression that if he were the cniet executive of the federal government, he would make the governors and the states take a new lease on life. He stands for a government of strong component parts. The states fit into his political plans as logically as pieces in a puzzle, and that probably is why he is going to all the trouble to talk about rights and the necessity of marking the boundaries between state and federal functions. He apparently Intends to do sometning about it if elected to the presidency We must control, with the cooperation of all our Ailles, the future use of aii the islands of the Pacific and prevent their future military use by Andrew' J.

Up to 20 years ago It was highly exceptional for the wives of presidents to have had a career outside of the home even before marriage, although Mrs. Fillmore had taught school in a rural district of New York and Ida Saxton was cashier In her father's bank at Canton when she became betrothed to William McKlnely In 1870, The first Mrs. Wilson was a painter, but not a professional one, and the second Mrs. Wilson took no part in the actual management of the Jewelry store in Washington, w-hich she Inherited on the death of her first husband.

First wife of a president to be a college graduate was Mrs. Hayes, who was graduated from a small collegiate institution In Cincinnati, no longer In existence. Mrs. Garfield had studied at the Western Reserve Eclectic Institute in Ohio, which later became Hiram college and of which her husband for a time served as president. Mrs.

Cleveland, now Mrs. Preston, was graduated from Wells college In New York In 1885 Beginning with Mrs. Coolidge in 192.1. the White House had mistresses with records of activities outside of the home. Grace Goodhue, an alumnus of the University of Vermont, taught In a school for the deaf before marrying Calvin Coolidge.

(In 1838 an annual pension of 15.000 was voted by for Mrs. Coolidge and for Mrs. Harrison, widow of President Benjamin Harrison.) The late Mrs. Hoover, a graduate of Iceland Stanford university, helped her husband translate "De Re Metalllca." a famous Latin 1 manuscript on mining published tl as mistress of the White House was active in the affairs of the Girl Scouts of Amer- 1 ica. Mrs Roosevelt.

like her daughter, Roettiger, who sometimes acts as White House hostess, did not go to college. Before 1933 she part owner, and helped to manage, a factory for handicraft furniture and also a school in New York, in which she taught. Her extramural activities since moving into the White House defy enumeration. Mrs. Dewey, also not a college graduate, studied singing before marriage; she sang in church choirs and appeared briefly on the New York stage.

Mrs Bricker. like Mrs. Truman potentially a mistress of the White House. Is a graduate of Ohio State university and taught high school for a brief period. By GEORGE E.

SOKOLSKY one can know absolutely how- human being- have been dislocated by this war, but Dr, Eugene M. Kullscher and the International Labor Office estimate, after evilu- atlng all the existent material, that some 30,000,000 people have hern shifted about from place to place. Even if his estimate is high. Dr. Kullscher provides a baAs for consideration of the problems of rehabilitation and the effect of the poverty of mankind on us and our abundance.

Americans have a way of speaking of our "high standard of without clearly defining what Is meant by a term and I suppose definitions are unimportant if the fact Is obvious. This country has, however, for a long ppriod been in a receding standard of living. That Is, our level moving downward. Definition then becomes Important, because If we are to do anything about it we need to know what we are talking about. Definition: The term, standard of living, the per capita use of and services per annum Simple indeed is this definition and it may he applied to all peoples, In every country, and for all purposes.

For Instance, a person who possesses hot and cold running water In his own residence live on a higher standard of living than a person who has to go out to a well, draw his water, carry it I In a container to his kitchen and heat It. The family will he able to use more water and expend energy to get It than the family. IMILARLY. the Individual who owns and uses an automobile Is on a higher standard than the Individual who has to use his legs or a donkey or a camel. Similarly, the person who can afford out of his labor to eat a well-balanced diet, high in proteins and vitamins and other health elements Is on a higher standard of living than the person who must live on a carbohydrate, unvaried, low-vitamin diet because that ts all that is available to him.

A woman is on a higher standard of living If she can a vacuum cleaner on her carpets than one who has to heat them with a stick to get them clean. The politics and economics of the world are affected more by this problem of standards of living than by all the speeches, proclamations and resolutions of statesmen. Thisc 30,000,000 displaced human of inevitably on a low standard of living. Most of the world will be on a lower standard of living In 1945 than It was iu 1938. The people of the United States are on a lower standard of living In 1944 than they were in 1932, although labor Is receiving more wages in 1944 than In 1932.

I am sure that someone will write me a letter to ask whether I know- there is a war on. And that will be a foolish letter, be- cause every family knows that there ia a war on. If, however, we are to study these economic problems. we have to view them without the slightest trace of sentimentality. with ice water in our veins.

Otherwise, w-e shall continue to remain confused about them. UR standard of living and Its movement up and down is a fact. War or no war, It is a fact. If we are to maintain our standard of living at a specific level, not only must the money earnings of each individual he maintained but the goods and services must be pvallable for exchange in the market. There are sentimental individuals who believe that It Is morally wrong for to live on so high a level while the Russians.

Chinese, Fiji islands and other people are on a lower standard of living If they could devise a formula for raising other standards without leveling ours downward, they would have a worthwhile proposition. hut all plans and schemes are designed to level the American standard downward, either by making our money lower in purchasing power, by limiting our capacity to export goods or by making goods less available to Americans, (Copyright 1944 Features Syndicate Inc.) Dumbarton Oaks By JACK STINNETT If a more or less permanent peace comes out of this war. it improbable that the blueprint will be drawn at historic Durliharton Oaks. Here In Georgetown, on the rim of Rock Creek park, representatives of the four great non-Axis powers will hold a series of rlos- ed-door conferences to lay the foundation for the international or- ganization which may keep peace in the world for years to come. Except for the first day or so, I when by press and radio, the con- 1 ferees will be introduced to the world at large and the primary objectives outlined, there probably will he little or no fanfare attending the conferences.

Dumbarton Oaks was built in 1800 and remains one of the best examples of the 18th century chateau this country ha sto offer. Originally known as the "Ac- when It was constructed by William H. Dorsay, first Judge of the court, established by Jefferson, It has passed through several ownership and has many names. Most famous of its tenants was John C. Calhoun, who lived there as secretary of war, vice president and senator from South Carolina.

The estate was called when Robert Woods Bliss, then ambassador to the Argentine. took it over some years ago and changed the title to Dumbarton Oaks. Harvard university owns the property now and something of a retreat for research students. It be during the conference, of course. If it turns out as state department officials hope It will, Harvard may find it one of the historic shrines.
