One of the reasons for is the failure of one nation to o action eliminating any basic cause. If the three-mile doctrine remains after the war, any nation can move in on Alaskan fisheries and there will be a dispute. Cengress can remove one cause by Dimond’s bill. Agenda for OWI (Washington Pest) formation a clear and very simple congept of its responsibility—to see to it that the American people get the full story of the war. In his swan song as director of the agency's domestic branch, he said to the sales executive group in New York last week that “all America needs is the facts about the war on both the military and civil fronts to share it com- pletely as a nation and as individuals who go to make up that nation. The American people need more, and need now, facts and not philosophy. They need ries of action as grim and as realistic as war self, and not preachment and lectures.” In his brief tour of duty here, Mr. Hoyt has worked -nergetically -and with some measure of success—to give the country reporting of this sort. The storie from Tarawa indicate at least a liberalization of the news policy. And the Army has been induced to recognize that the American people have a legiti- THREE- The bill introduced b, J.

Con- fusion still surrounds the activities of agencies on the home front. We are now more than ever in need of clarification as to policies in the economic sphere—production cutbacks, utilization of manpower, the stabilization program. Here, too, Army and Navy procurement officials tend to indulge in a mysterious secrecy. They might better acknowledge openly that changes in the pattern of the war have required changes in their scheduling of requirements. No one expects them to have been clairvoyant above all, OWI still needs to bring about coher- ence in Government information. As Mr. Hoyt noted in his New York speech, and as recent occurrences have made all too clear, we are still getting con- tradictory “preachments” from high Government of- ficials—too often behind the mask of anonymity. They remain prone to consider themselves guardians of our morale, if not of our morals, and to administer ex- Palmer Hoyt brought to the Office of War In-|.
