There is no doubt tha°t the CIO’s
Political Activities committee will in
fluence a goodly number of votes this
year, but it is also apparent that any
candidate who gets under obligation
to this organization is in an extreme
ly dangerous position. Whether Pies-
ident Roosevelt will be able to avoid
such obligation and still accept the
CIO support is a matter of consider
able debate here.
The political wiseacres here, who
are willing to’predict the outcome ol
the election for anyone who will lis
ten, seem to give Roosevelt the edge
over Dewey. But even the most ar
dent Roosevelt fans think Dewey
might win if he would do one thing,
namely: Pick his cabinet, make it the
very strongest cabinet possible, and

Ability and Responsibility
TX7HEN ■ particularly tough and important job cornea
* ^ along, it usually lands in the lap of someone who is
already doing a lot of other jobs well.
People like this—who are used to getting results—aren’t
too plentiful. They need to have both ability and a sense of
responsibility. One alone won’t do—for ability can sometimes
be misdirected, and a sense of responsibility without ability
can lead to troublesome meddling.
It’a men with this combination of talent!'who have been
carrying a heavy load on the home front theae paat few years.
On the farm and in industry they've been meeting—and
•olving—the difficult wartime problems of production.
^ -v . . _
After the war is won. somebody must shoulder the equally
big job of getting this nation back into peacetime production,
of laying the groundwork for the better and more prosperous
America we all want. This is a challenge, and an opportunity,
for the producers of America—for the men and women who
have a sense of responsibility and have shown their ability
to get things done. Central Electric Co., Schenectady. S. Y.
