On a TT OBSERVATIONS IN REGARD TO AERIAL ATTACK The House Appropriations Commit- tee has been asked to provide $70,000,000 to buy and store medical and. surgical supplies, iricluding $14,000,000 to stock- pile unusual vaccines, such as yellow fe- ver serum, for widespread use in case of a germ \warfare attack. Millard F. Caldwell, Civil. Defense Administrator, told the Members of Con- gress that atomie bombs might rain on fifteen or twenty American cities at.once if war came. He stated that the Russian air attack probably would come over the polar region and that big cities in the northern half of the country were in the greatest danger, Moreover, he called at- tentigh to the testimony of the Air Force: whi@e estimated that seven out of /tem ene hambers would get through to theiggtargets regardless ‘of our “air de fensgs. “There should be no delay, it seems, in pEgviding the request to stockpile medi- eal d surgical supplies. Moreover, the testimony presented to the © committee should give impetus to the question of our nec@$ary production facilities through- out nation. ihe U. S. Government is now finan. cingwa great expansion of production fa. cilittes, either through Inns or through tax-exemptions. It should not hesitate to requame those who construct new plants to builfthem in accordance with the dictates of of military strategists. There is no ex- cusdfor a program which continues. to ma ur production facilities in any one, twomy three areas of the country. eee THE TRUTH FROM A JUDGE ~ eee SEudge Samuel S. Leibowitz, of New YorQ& testified before the Senate Crime Inv@figating Committee, that gamblers paidspetween $20,000,000 and $25,000,4 000 @-year to New York policemen for pro- tecti e haye no way of knowing whether the ge’s estimate is correct, or not, but he a¥@ told the Senators that the graft, or the Beration of graft, ran from the po- licemmen on the beat right on up. He in ed timt “it couldn’t exist” without “chan- nels the top” knowing about it. Wearly everybody can agree with the latt@&statement of the judge.iThe en: forc&ffent of criminal laws is an all-out proc@@lure, so far as public officials are con ed, and whenever laws are violat- ed v immunity, over prolonged periods, the blic can safely assume that there sis sc tie-up between those in authority and ffiose guilty the Hiv. e Spring poets are the guys put of repeatedly violating who “try” in poetry.

The Labor Party, in power, has a majority of only seven or eight, but hopes to do bet- ter if the election expected to be forced if this year can only be postponed until fall. By the same token the Conservative minor- ity would like to hold the election now, and is doing everything in its power to de- feat the government in the House and force an election. To carry out their purpose they are forcing roll calls on every possible oc sion, and holding long night sessions, compelling the Labor members to keep on the job all the time if their administration is to stay in power. This is wearing the Lakorites out, and is meant to do so. Theoretically these siege tactics should be equally hard on the Conservatives, but in practice they are not. The Conservative members, being largely well-to-do, can af- ford torent lodgings in town, whereas many Labor members must either travel from their homes in other cities or stay night and day in the House. It takes fewer Conservatives;on hand to keep the threat alive than Laborites to be sure of repelling 7: As a piece of tactics this policy has its merits, but no one can say that it adds to the stability of the executive or to the feeling of national unity, By contrast, our system of fixed tenure for the President and the Congress assures their continu- ance in office for a definite term, regard- less of the fluctuations in Congressional sentiment or differences with the White House.

ARGUMENT BY EPITHET ” There is a gerferal habit in the United States, whenever people cannot answer -thes@¥enihehts of an individual, to put an end to the dis@tssion by applying some epithet to the individual. Despite the fact that we claim we want peace in the world and that we are anxious to avoid war with Russia, or any- body else, any intelligent action by statesman of this country, or our allies, seeking to find a source of agreement with the Communists, is immediately la- beled “appeasement” and the individual is denounced as an “appeaser.” This is a foolish habit because the ap- plication of an epithet does not destroy the logie advanced by an individual in support of a proposed course of action. In the effort to avojd war and to develop good relations with other peoples, regard- less of their political and economic theo- wies, it-is mecessary for the free countri to make concessions on minor matters. This process of,adjustment should not be misunderstood .or considered appease- ment, The world has too much to suffer from another global war to permit such a catastrophe to occur if it can be avoided by any reasonable means. The people of the United States, including fathers, mo- thers, wives and others, should under- stand the terrific toll of life that another war may take of our young men. They intersted in preventing the shter and destruction and, consequent- nould intelligently support the states. mei who seek the means of escaping the dic penalties of such a conflict. a should be slav ly, s Nearly everybody is for the good until they; come to the p test. ommon etbook NEW ANTI-SUB WEAPONS Disclosing that the Navy expects to spend $500,000,000 this year for guns, shells, missiles and other weapons, Rear Admiral M. F. Schoeffel, Chief of Ord- nance, says that we have developed new target-seeking torpedoes and_ special plane-launched rockets. The Admiral said that the new tor- pedoes, fuided-électronically, are soon to be in production and can be fired from surface ships, aircraft or submarines and “will present a positive threat to any sub- marine now in existence or being built.” THE KEY WEST CITIZEN “This Rock ' Of Ours” By BILL GIBB ' Call t G you wish —bar girls, blue mooners, hostesses—they are still Probably subject that the and the drinking And even here girls, a blight on this is the only non-drin. public agree upon bir mutual ac humanity is derived different reasons.
