Undoubtedly, the V P. will be dis appointed when the votea are counted next aummer. The American people at 111 have faith In Democracy. It may aeem to him that the devil and all hla angela plua Congreaa. "Cotton Ed" Smith and the "Solid South" have entered into a conapiracy (a righleoua one) to dethrone an nd minlatration that has proved themselves to he socialistic aud communistic; an administration that has constantly fostered pollciea foreign to those of the Democratic Party. Yea, it looks Itke Roosevelt, Wallace & Company ?wlH have a tough row of stumps to hoe. No aane person Is in accord with their method of administration and certainly no honest person admlreB their brand of politics. F. D. R. dropped hla candy beyond recovery when he vetoed the antlatrlke bill Juat a few daya ago. Then Henry started "mouthing" with Big Jessie Jones and the Big Boy from Texas haa won every round so far. No doubt the President would fire Jones If he waBn't afraid of the Texas delegation at the Natolnal Democratic Convention. But firing Jones or keeping him will not make the great state of Texas renounce Democratic principles. I am convinced that the "communistic boys" will be in for a good fight. They will be shown In good American fashion that our people will not Htand by and see democratic government "of the people, by the people and for the people . . . perish from the earth." Love, Your Dad. p. S. If they are successful in getting the anti-poll tax bill passed soon enough Eleanor might get a faction of the Negro vote in the South But. I'm sure even the intelligent Negroes want free democracy and independent enterprise. FIVE MINUTES TALK ON WASTE FAT SALVAGE (Continued From Page 1) humane duties to fulfill In the war program. It Is used for medical supplies?for ointments, soothing salvos for burns and wounds and many other medications needed to ease the suffering of our wounded fighters. In wartime, glycerine finds its most powerful use in tho making of nitroglycerine which goes into explosives and munitions such as anti-aircraft, anti-tank and airplane cannon. It is also used by destroyers in the deadly depth charges which help to combat the submarine menace, and keep open the important supply lines to our armed forces and those of our Allies. Glycerine is also used for vital mechanisms In big field and naval guns . . for ships' compasses . . . important hydraulic and steering apparatus and for protective coating for our ships, tanks and guns. The lives of millions of our fighting nun depend on the cooperation of American women in saving even the smallest amount of fat from their kitchens. Take your waste fat to your local butcher.
