Even if it is granted this nation would be im- provident to use up all its petroleum supplies, it remains a fact that there is a lot of oil in the world, and the establishment of adequate sources of supply | should not be beyond the genius of American industry, ary by the government. If, as or when war comes, we should have a number of alterna tive sources of supply anyhow. Too much of the last war was fought on gasoline and oil out of our own good earth. 1 t aided where nece: China's New Premier (New York Times) | We hope that the appointment of Dr. Wong Wen- hao as Premier of China will prove to be what it appears to be on the surface, a further relaxation of the hold that a small group of insiders has had on the Government of China for many years. With the recent election of General Li Tsung-jen as head of | | ) A the Legislative Yuan, this new appointment gives | China’s more independent moderates the two top posts in China's legislative and executive departments | These two elections do not mark a millenfum in | | China. Both General Li and Premier Wong have been long and loyal members of the Kuomintang. But both ‘h:\w been critics within the party and they may. now | be expected to do what they can to make the Govern- | ment more efficient and to institute some of the long- |needed reforms about which there has been Italk but little action j The new Premier is well equipped on his record for his new post. He has been Secretary of the Ex- !ccutive Yuan (Cabinet) that he now heads, Minister lof Economic Affairs, Chairman of the War Production _ |Board that was modeled after the wartime agency of FATHER'S DAY TOMORROW Tomorrow is Father’s tion is, “What shall The advertising and answering this question but a little more of yourself than he's been accustomed to having.

Just give him something to put in his heart 0il for War (Cincinnati Enquirer) A special House subcommittee headed by Missouri's Rep. Dewey Short warns that the petroleum supply of the nation is in “so critical” a condition that if volun tary control is not successful the government “immedi ately should impose compusory allocation of both steel and petroleum products.” The greup said that Defense Secretary James For- restal had told them that if war comes we will be at least 2,000,000 barrels of petroleum a da; hort of our war requirements. The committee itself expressed the would be 3,000,000 barrels a »ekpiling of petroleum was one suggestion ad- vanced by the committee, and a return of gasoline rationing was spoken of. The point was made that we dare not try to fight a war on “undisovered oil.” Surely there are better and more convenient ways of preparing against the contingencies of war than o place our civilian economy back on a wartime scarcity allotment. The stockpiling of petroleum—or, at least, the systematic develobment and proving of oil resources for military use only—is an eminently reasonable pre- caution. But have we exhausted all possibilities of supplementing American oil supplies? Our normal peacetime usage of petroleum products is on the in- crease. To restrict this usage arbitrarily would have an impact upon our standard of living which, while far less serious than war, is not to be welcomed as a permanent proposition.

There are voices being raised in opposition Inow that were silent only a few months past; the | military situation has worsened and the need for re- | form, if the Nationalist areas are to be rallied for lall-out war on the Communists, has increased. Gen- ‘vml Li's election and Premier Wong's appointment appear to be more than the usual musical-chairs shift {of Cabinet posts that have in the past given the {appearance of a change for the better but not the | substance . The situation calls urgently for a revi- | talized, efficient Chinese Government that can rally | the support of the Chinese people. Streamlined Aviation (Washington Post) The confirmation of Russell B. Adams for the | remaining Civil Aeronautics Board vacancy has ended | the pronounced limp with which the CAB has operated Isince the string of resignations began last fall. As { |chairman of the CAB's economic bureau since 1945, | .,0¢te from Harry Truman. In-! | Mr. Adams brings to his new position a needed famii- | arity with the agen: important regulatory functions. |His experiences as a delegate to the Provisional In- { ternational Civil Aviation Organization also should be |useful in helping the CAB arrive at intelligent de- | cisions on cases with international implications. More- over, the fact that a career employee has been selected for the CAB vacancy should stir morale within the |agency and among Government workers in general. With the companion appointment of Delos W. | Rentzel as head of the Civil Aeronautics Administra- | tion, all the top governmental civil aviation posts have | been filled. That is all to the good. It is regrettable, however, that the Administration as yet has taken no s to implement the changes in civil aviation struc- ture recommended by both the presidential and con- gressional air policy boards. One reason for the delay |may be that some of the recommendations are con- | flicting. The congressional air policy advocates, how- lever, have come forward with no fewer than 21 sep- (arate bills and two resolutions to carry out the two |reports. Several of these are concerned with stream- ‘lining and redefining the work of the Civil Aero- nautics Board—an end that is certainly desirable in view of the recent log jam of cases. The Department {of Commerce, which has something of a vested in- | terest, is opposing a number of these changes. If | there is legitimate Administration objection, however, |the Administration ought to come forward with posi- tive proposals of its own. Otherwise the implication !IS that insofar as it concerns civil aviation, the presi- | dential air policy study is just another report to be |filed and forgotten. ste; following reasons: |be a tragedy.
