Events within Germany and Japan that have rocked the war weary
world with breathless speculation could hold a more certain clue to the
.probable duration of the struggle, not only in Europe but beyond the
Pacific, than the war progress maps themselves yet reveal.
The toppling fall of the Tojo War Cabinet in Tokyo was born of cumu-
lative Japanese defeats in the Pacific and frustration in China. There
is reason, too, for assuming that it also reflects acceptance by Japan's
military caste, even before Hitler's narrow escape from death at German
.hands clinched it, of the fact that their Nazi war accomplice is doomed.

had his say on Thursday. By it he
stood unswervingly. The convention
that repudiated him still got the
unanimous support of an Iowa dele-
gation he headed.
But the cankerous growth that
had its roots in Tammany hall, in
the offices of Ed Flynn, Boss
Crump, and all their venal co-con-
spirators, thrives as never before.
Henry Wallace may be magnani-
mobs enough to forgive and for-
get, but his friends will remember.
The social scientists had better
study this phenomenon of tight-
fisted rules, this "bossism" within
the framework of nominally repub-
lican government.
President Roosevelt looms as the
great hope of the Democrats. He is
above these political bickerings, al-
though it is conceded by most party-
men here that by a crook of his
official finger' he could have had
Henry Wallace as his running mate.
The tragedy of the matter is that so
great a man as FDR cannot be elect-
ed without the aid and abettance 'of
those party hacks who have divested
themselves of their greatest humani-
tarian asset.
Not the man but the methods rais-
ed the ire of the nonparticipants
gathered at this convention. One
had to mingle with them, speak tc
them and gauge their resentment tc
appreciate why the people could be
traduced but not silenced.
"We want Wallace" still rings ir
the Chicago Stadium. May it burr
the ears of those who would not
listen.

Miss Montez, glamorous siren of
the extravaganza, plays the dual role
of a South Sea Island princess and
her wicked twin sister. Lavish settings
and brilliant costumes form a fitting
stage for romance, adventure and
intrigue.
This is the last picture made by
Sabu before he entered the U.S.
Army Air Corps.

pursuit of happiness, "Pin-Up Girl,"

At the same time, Japan's new
premier, Gen. Kuniaka Koiso, ap-
pealed to the nation to master the
present critical situation and bring
the war to a victorious conclusion.
Koiso, in his first official pro-

one must do his duty to the utmost
of his ability."
