It is his right tc a program for the legislators which they lopt in full or in part or not at all. The elected representatives of the people have no right to their independence as members of the ative branch of government. Such would result in a situation which is nothing less than a form of dictatorship. President Truman certainly did not ask for pled from members of the Congress before calling the recent session of that body. He did suggest a legisla- tive program only part of which was carried out.

C. Skeffington-Lodge complained rather bitterly to the House of Commons the other day about the quality of American-made magazine fiction that is now being bought by British editors for purvey- ance to their innocent readers. To judge from the Mr. Skeffington-Lodge—Kisses That Pick Up Secrets, Love Is an Art, Date so on—he d in mind the sort of tripe titles quoted by Re: Count and 1y light that is rolled out for the American pulpwood trade at two cents a word or thereabouts, by our industrious and energetic hacks. Evidently the American pub- hers have discovered a profitable secondary market r the stuff among k countrvmen of . Chaucer kespeare and Milton Mr. gton-Lodge, however, thought it would be 0o great hardship to the British public if they were deprived of t Viagara of piffle and tush.” What he seems to have contemplated was that the zovernment should forbid further importation of Am- erican literary tripe on the pretext of augmenting jollar credits Such an action has already been taken in the e of the Hollywood movies. However, the Financial Secretary of the Treasury, Mr. William Glenvil Hall, gently reminded Mr. Skeffington-Lodge that under article 9 of th agreement Great Britain is pledged not to discriminate against Ameri- Mr. Hall's point is that the r ~()‘1(-Ikr|1 the importation Hollvwood movies is mere part of a gen restriction on all foreign mov But since the United States is the only considerable foreign producer of literary trive in a language which for the purposes of trade may be described as English to prohibit it would certainly have an appearance of discrimination So that plained that he can products. was that Mr. Skeffington-Lodge ex- wasn’t narrowminded, in the matter He had nothing, he said, against the American way | of life long remained in America.” Mr. Skeffington-Lodge's conception of the American way of life, it appeared, was “a roaring carnival of quick drinks, adolescent sex, bright lights and dim think- as it ing.” Perhaps this conception is not as far from reality as we prefer to think; but the curious thing is tnat by no means all who find this way of life attractive are Americans. Doubtless that explains why British editors are buying rights to the contents of Passion Stories Monthly or True Romance Maga- | zine instead of rights to the stuff in the Ke Review or the Hibbert Journal, which we feel ] they could have obtained on equally reasonable termis Trading Noises e (Cincinnati Enquirer) | Up at Canton, Ohio, an individual with a grudge has been carrying cn a one-man war against juke boxes. At least we suppose, it's against juke boxes in general, although=a sii rument distributor has been bearing the bru the attack. While we can't condone the attacker's methods, still we do have a certain sympathy for his complaint and respect for his ingenuity. Suffering from the con- stant noises emanating from gaudy record players. | the man apparentlv is trying to heap competing ! neises upon the hapless head of the djstributor. The telephone at the distributor’s home jangles constantlv. The wail of fire sirens- all false alarms— disturbs his nightlv slumbe Police cars scream to his door. Early in the morning milk trucks unload unordered—but noisy—milk bottles on his front porch The door bell rings between times with solicitors who call in response to unauthorized requests. We sympathize fully with the plight of the juke box fellow. After all, he’s only trving to make a living. But we sympathize, too, with his tormentor, I who probably has gone for weeks without a quiet | meal—breakfast, lunch or dinner. Eating in res- taurants these davs is precarious business. No matte how long or far cne searches, no matter how certain | he is that he's found a spot where peace comes | with the soup, he’s doomed to disappointment. Before | he knows it he's engulfed.
