There are numerous indications that
{the parti.san differences upon which
• the elections of next November will
I be deci'ded will not be chiefly over
{international relations. There is no
{suspicion that any of the potential

{desires or intends to use the war sit
uation as a springboard for 'his own
persoiTgl political am'bitions..
In all camps there is evident an in
creasing realization %of the serious and
solemn obligation to put patriotism
above partisanship. It is the belief of
many Shrewd olWirvers here, there

will be fought out. on strictly domes-
itic issues, with both parties ^n prac-
