NEW YORK, SEPTEMBER 29. 1944 OTHER FOLKS' TROUBLES Americans are apt to think themselves the only ones with wartime troubles. Canadians seem to them placid, restrained, quiet-law- abiding. What is their amazement, then, on getting to Canadian summer cottages, after hoarding every teaspoonful of gas, to find tha't vandals there, as at hpme, have oeen at destruction? summer cottage laid up one winter is sad enough to enter, but when closed for two or more war years it is worse. When Jocks hive'been shot so keys will not work; win- kws-have been broken and floors covered with broken glass, and a broken sash had admitted wind, rain, flies, bats, spiders, hornets and porcupines, it Isn't funny at all.

Next time another bunch does it. Big Brother coming back from war may help. The town hopes two or three will take an interest in Scout movements and hobby nights. There's nobody in a Canadian village to do it now. Mothers are overbusy, kids run wild.

It takes the leadership of strong and fine young men to help these things. Canada and the States both need 'These Days 9 By George Sokokky IT KIIOIXU BE Tom Dewey has just cause to complain of the fllpuancv with which Mr. Roosevelt addressed him and the American people last Saturday night. No man has a right to be as cure of the people as Mr. Roosevelt seems to be.

This election involves not merely the choice of a President but an accounting of the fours yean' stewardship of the office and ah appraisal of the fitne-'S of the opponent Mr. Roosevelt's tone is that anyone who opposes him is just plain dumb and that he can refuse to discuss his -career in office, the success or failure of his administration, his policies and plans for the future and devote himself merely to calling his adversary some generally polite synonyms for liar. That is not good enough. Quite auart from anything Dewey said. Franklin D.

Roosevelt, as a candidate for the presidency, should in his first speech, if he desired to discuss foreign policy, have answered these questions: What is the of American commit-, ments as arranged at Cairo. Teheran and Quebec; Bret ton Woods and Dumbarton Oaks? 2. To what extent is this country committed as to money, tariffs, tioverninent-arranKed international cartels, participation quotas in foreign markets, 3. Is lend-lease to be continued after the war and what is his plan? 4. Is the United to participate in world policing and what extent? I do not express opinions as lo what Mr.

Roosevelt ought to say about anv ol these items, but it would be right and dignified if Iloosevelt discussed any one of them. Instead he talked of Fala and hilariously ridiculed Dewev whose reply on Monday nizht must have made the President feel cheap If he listened to his opponent Fala is not runniriE for President. If-Mr. Roosevelt desired to devote himself to domestic affairs, he might have dealt with these tooics: 1. What are his olans for demobilizstion.

re- conversion, reduction of the cost of government, reduction of the number of officeholders ina more than 3.000.000? 2. What plans dues'he have for freeine the' country from the burdens of taxation which is. now liuuirfatini: the economic middle class? 3. What steps docs Mr. Roosevelt plan to take lo achieve full employment without again using the Harry HoiJcins device of Dutlini; those who' cannot find employment on the public payroll a subsistence level? 4.

By JACK STLV.VETT Washington--No matter who is elected Uie next chief executive the presidential news conference is here to Blay. In the nearly 12 years of his administration, President Roosevelt has made the bi-weekly conference a permanent fixture. There have been some complaints since we entered the war about the declining number of regular conference There have been other complaints about the of real news that comes out of some of them, even when momentous events need elucidation.

Communion Sunday, Suppe: REALTY FUTURE H. R. Templeton, banker, addressed a gathering of reaJ estate men recently, trying to draw from history some indication of realty's future. He made the following predictions, based on his studies. Some degree of inflation cannot be escaped, because federal debt, enormously inevitably increased by war, has already created some inflation.

Real estate has been affected by it, and will continue to be affected by further inflation. If mortgage financing 1 remains on a conservative basis, it could restrict, to some degree, a runaway market in reality. There will be a good postwar market for houses, as well as for those already built. residential construction demand will i --that they wiJJ have opportunity to rebuild their own lives accordinz to their own linhu. hones and aspirations.

We want to be sure that their future is brighter than their present can possibly be. That is the prime issue in this campaign. That --and not Roosevelt or Dewev or the Democratic or Republican parties. And having that uppermost in our rninds and hearts, we expect our candidates to be serious about this'business.
