The savage suicidal fighting on Okinawa and Luzon might be considered by the Japs to contribute to that psycho ical goal—to so discourage Americans at home that a peace shart of unconditional surrender would look enticing. The change: in Tokyo radio reports; admitting the crippling havoc of our euper-fortress raids on Jap’cities, fits perfectly into such a pattern, designed to lude us into an easy, unaware peace. ne On that scoree Guunison declares he considers the United States is sound asleep to the dangerous situation in the Far East that can grow out of this war. “If there is another war after this one, it will start in Asia,” he maintains, ‘‘and Jap propaganda has left one thing in the mind of every Asiatic— Asia for the Asiatics.”” : , Other official observers agree that Japan will come again as soon as she is able—who point to the Shinto teaching of every Jap child that Japan must subjugate the 10,000 nations and the four seas. We must be “rough, tough and realistic’ cautions the war reporter. “It may not be pleasant to have to go into Japan with a club—for noboby can be friendlier than a Jap, right up to the time he stabs you—but the only way to make them understand what they can’t do again is to show force.” If the sure alternative is another war as soon as Japan is militarily ready for it, and if there is a possibility of simultaneously ending both this one and the next before it starts, we ‘must agree with Gunnison: When the dearly won peace is ours, it must be a strongly guarded, preventive peace, in our time and on our terms—not Japan’s.—Contributed. A REPUTATION WELL EARNED The San Francisco Employers Council reports that “strikes in San Francisco have decreased during the past five years, while, for the nation as a whole, they have increased.” For an area known in the 1930's for the number and severity of its labor disturbances, San Francisco and the bay area now enjoy a reputation almost unrivaled in the country for good, sound labor relations. Look at the record. In 1939 San Francisco had 58 strikes, involving 26,198 workers, who lost 348,818 man days of work. With 1939 as a base, the city each year since then has steadily cut down its strikes. For 1944, the city experienced only 12 strikes, involving 1316 workers who lost 7776 days. This represents a 98 per cent cut in the number of workers involved, a 95 per cent drop in days lost, and an 80 per cent de. crease in the gross number of strikes. As of the first of the year, on a comparable base, figures for the country showed that strikes increased 52 per cent, with 9 per cent more workers involved, but with a 61 per cent drop in the number of idle days. Such results as San Francisco's are not achieved by mere chance. The provocation and pressures for labor distudbances as reflected in the rest of the country, have increased. Credit, therefore, must go to the leaders of employers and labor for their spirit of. good will and cooperation. This cooperative spirit speaks well for the daysiof peace when this area will be the staging front for world trade and commerce and the center of the new. industrial west.—Contributed.

HOT SPOT ‘ If Herbert Hoover should be offered and should accept the task of feeding a starving Europe once again, the past president will find himself, unfortunately, in one of the most difficult and probably thankless positions to grow out of the war. Peculiarly enough, many of the European millions we will be called on to save will react much as the would-be suicide, unhappy because his rescuers didn’t-‘save his shoes and wallet, too. Even the defeated Germans, their country already gripped in a food crisis, expect to be fed—and promptly—for they know this country, unlike their own recognizes all humitarian obligations. Here at home the Wisconsin State Industrial Council of CIO was the first to warn President Truman that hed’d better avoid Herbert Hoover's, advice in the matter if he wants CIO support. Their stock criticisms of the work done under Hoover's direction to feed Europe's starving millions after the last war, have been hauled out and dusted off. Their deprecation of Hoover's authority on war created food problems is well under way despite world wide rescognition to the contrary. The job of feeding Europe is one in which neither politics nor factionalism should play a part and which surely should be administered by somebody who knows something about it through first hand experience. Herbert Hoover, past president of the United States, woud be a reasonoble, obvious selection, if he would undertake such a huge task. But for a job inviting the pressure, dissatisfaction and censure of critics both at home and abroad, no spot could be hotter or more thoroughly difficult for any man.—Contributed. HOW TO RELAX— PRODUCTIVELY After the rigors of war, perhaps you think you can take the problems of the post ‘war era in stride, without even pausing to catch your second wind. But peace, while it will be wonderful, will develop some new morning after complaints that never have troubled America in the past, according to 82 year old Sidney Blumenthal, vigorous titan of the textile industry. : “The big question,’” says Mr. Blumenthal, “‘is what we will do with the leisure which: greater productive efficiency will provide. Productive use of leisure will become one of the great issues of the future.”’ That, coming from an 82 year old, still-in harness and running a high pressure business, seems a strange addition to the agenda of post war problems when -we think of all the auto rides we haven't had, of all the fish grown fat in the streams, But wise and venerable Mr. Bluemthal believes that idle hands will have a tendency to get into mischief unless people learn to put their leisure to good purpose. A country with time on its hands, after a long period of pressure and strain, will have to learn to loaf intelligently and productively, he believes or it will become mentally lazy and morally sleazy. We need time to take stock of our moral, spiritual and material balance sheets—time to loaf and think. That sounds to us like a fine prescription. And where is ja better place in all the world, for just loafing and thinking, than our own outdoor wonderland? California, it seems, has just what the doctor ordered.—Contributed. ~R -M -BeINnceeteFFmar staying home every night and saving their money for a War The principal peoples of YugoSlavia are the Serbs, Croats and Slovens all Slavs. Until 1903 Panama was part of Colombia.
