Church Iilinois Representative in Congress Evanston, Illinois, Nov. 6.â€"In at least one respect the State and local elections held last Tuesday in differâ€" ent sections of the country were truly remarkable. Juiging from the public statements issued by varâ€" fous political leaders after the reâ€" sults became known, every national organization that participated in the election was victorious. THURSDAY, NOV. 11, 1987 When the ©Republicans boast about the Assembly gains in New York State and New. Jersey, the Democrats call attention to the election of a Democratic Governor in New Jersey. When the opponâ€" ents of the C.L.O. point to the defeat of that organization‘s candidates in Detroit, the leaders of the C.I.O. call attention to their victory in the town neighboring Pittsburgh and the election of their endorsed Mayor in the Steel City itself. Insofar as theseâ€"scattered State elections can be taken as any indiâ€" cation of the relative strength shown by the Republican and Demoâ€" cratic parties, the Republicans seem to have the better of the arâ€" gument. In New York State the Republicans captured a seat in Conâ€" gress formerly held by a Demoâ€" crat, obtained control of the conâ€" stitutional convention to meet next Whenever a State or local elecâ€" tion is held anywhere, Washington carefully scrutinizes the results with a view to determining which way the "tide is running." Each Republican and Demorat in Conâ€" gress seeks to discover whether his particular party is more popular or less popular with the electorate. In most instances, however, local elections mre no barometer of the trend in national politics. The reâ€" sults are largely determined by local issues and personalities and not by policies of the Federal Government. It is this fact which should be kept uppermost in mind in any attempt to appraise these recent election reâ€" sults. It would thus appear that we have witnessed a series of elections in which every one, except Tamâ€" many Hall, claims a victory and no national political organization of any kind was defe:te§ win any way. One suspects the pmsfiunda purâ€" pose of most, if not all, of these public statements by the .national organization leaders. If not that, then perhaps they are all guilty of "wishful thinking." Certainly the New Deal, the Republicans and the C.I.O. cannot be, as each would have us believe so completely vieâ€" torious.

However important these eleq tion results may seem to be to the Republicans and however encouragâ€" ing they may be from a partisan point of view, of much more imporâ€" tance is the fact that they demonâ€" strate that the American people want good government. â€" Nothing stands out clearer than that the people desire to rid themselves of machine politics, â€" favoritism â€" and corruption, that they are more interâ€" ested in efficiency than in partisanâ€" ship.

What can be more encouraging than to see the electorate express itself in favor of honest public officials with ability? It gives one renewed faith in democratic processes and the American system of government. Last Wednesday, she gave aon inâ€" teresting resume of the history of music, from its supposed origin up to the present day, and nex t Wedâ€" nesday, Nov. 17th, her topic will be "Melody, Rhythm and Harmony." In view of the peculiar rhythms and odd harmonies often heard in much of the modern music, it is esâ€" sential to know something about these important matters in order to understand and appreciate musical programs of today. f This discriminating sentiment on the part of the voters was particâ€" ularly impresive in New York City, where the issue was "reform," honâ€" esty and efficiency. Out of that elecâ€" tion rose a young Republican by the name of Thomas E. Dewey, who was chosen District Attorney of New York county. As "Special Rackets Prosecutor" he showed the people that he not only has the abilâ€" ity but, more important, he would play no favorites regardless of costs. Every effort was made by the forces of vice, corruption and graft to preâ€" vent his election, but the people knew how only two years previous this 36 year old lawyer presented a crushing case in court which broke up one of the strongest vice rings in New York City.

Those who votâ€" ed for him did not hear his brilâ€" liant seven hour summation of his case against Lucky Luciano‘s gang, but they could see the results in the decline of racketeers. While the various organizations may claim victories in the recent elections, the outstanding ~vietory seems~ to have ~been won by the American people as a whole in the cause of honesty and efficiency in public office.

Tain Illinois Codé Says Stickers Should Not Obscure Vision This is the time of year when football becomes one of the main topics of conversation and youngâ€" sters from seventeen to seventy give way to that urge to plaster their cars with stickers which show their pigskinâ€"sport allegiance. Motorists were reminded today by the Chicago Motor club that the state vehicle code specifies that stickâ€" ers shall be placed so that they do not obscure a clear vision of the highway. This applies to either the windshield or the rear window and to the side windows as well. Since the specified location for vehicle tax stickers generally is in the lower right hand corner of the windshield, the amount of "dead" space available for other stickers is rather limited. The club points out, however, that the space immedâ€" iately behind the rear vision mirror is of no value to forward vision, and that the lower left hand corner of the rear window falls in the same category. _ Stickers placed there should not cause any objection from the authorities.
