INGENUITY—AND GUNS
If there is one weapon our forces have had in abundance
to help balance off the supeior quality and quantity of enemy
equipment, training and crafty planning, in the first stages of
the war, that weapon is ingenuity.
It has been exhibited on the battlefields times
home fields a year or so ago while their Axis adversaries were
rounding out their life-long training in following orders and
patterns, never to think for themselves.
Most recent evidence-of the weapon and how it works,-is
the disclosure of how this Pacific Coast was spared a Jap attack last June by the construction of Alaskan bomber fields
where no fields had been before, where none were expected.
according to the pattern—and precisely under the Jap's
watchful eyes. oe
Ingenuity has sayed the day, and the battle, more times
than an arrogant enemy would care tq believe, so far in this
war. But even ingenuity needs backing up with guns and ammunition. Right now, General MacArthur needs planes in the
South Pacific battle area. He needs them as desperately as he
needed them at Bataan—so desperately that he has sent a com
mission of his own officers to Washington to explain it all to
congress and the president.
Perhaps it is significant that the people whose sons are
fgihting under him have the utmost confidence in MacArthur.
_ They believe he and his men have accomplished much toward
' dicerting the Jap and annihilating him, with pitifully little to
do it with. His request should be granted, and at once, for even
the greatest generals can’t operate forever on expedience,
makeshift and ingenuity unfortified somewhat by material
equipment.
THAT $25,000 SALARY LIMIT
Repeal of the $25,000 salary limit, which has been voted
by the senate after similar action by the house will probably not affect many of us directly, and it might appear at first
glance that the controversy is another instance of much ado
about nothing. But even though most of us haven't achieved such astronomical earnings, and are unduly concerned
about those who have, the principle of putting a definite limit
on wht a man can earn by government directive, may well disturb us. If we can be told that we can’t earn over $25,000, we
can also be told that we can't earn over $5,000 or $2.000, or
any other sum that the boys in Washington may decide upon.
And when that happens the right of free enterprise in a free
America will have gone out the window.

WE MUST HURRY
We may be stirred by indignation at the bungling in
Washington which has disrupted our production and distribution machinery; we may rebel at attempts of some of our
chosen officials to stampede us into changing our form of government while we are at war. Or we may be 100 per cent New
Deal Democrats, infuriated at congress for not taking the president’s program, and resentful of all who oppose his stand on
either domestic of foreign issues. But whatever our policies,
we are all Americans—and the reports from both Europe and
the Pacific indicate that time is not on our side, as we may have
thought, but on that of our enemies. We have a war to win—
and we desperately need to get at the job of winning it!
Titler, with his air force badly depleted by the Russian
campaign, is fighting for time to rebuild it. If we allow him
that time, millions of men will die because of it. Japan is
fighting for time to digest the loot of Hongkong, Malaya,
Singapore and the Dutch East Indies. Given that time, the
Japs will have the oil and the other natural resources to go on
—and it will take years and many American lives, to beat
them.
In short, we must hurry, if our boys are to be saved and
if we are to be spared years of bloodshed. There's no politics
about that. We have a job to do, a vital job that transcends all
political differences. And the way to do it, quickly and effectively, is to stay at our jobs and keep the wheels of production
constantly moving. We have a right to disagree with our ofi

ficials, when we feel called on. to disagree; that is our American birthright—and this war would be vain, indeed, if we could
not exercise it. But we can’t afford to let internal disagreements interfere with our work for the men we have sent overseas to fight for us. We have a job to do—and we must hurry.
Let’s rememberit!
POLITICALLY
SPEAKING
By RALPH H. TAYLOR
With American fighting men
reaching the combat areas in ever
increasing numbers, and with American food and equipment bolstering the supply lines of the United
Nations, we are starting to win battles on the war front, instead of being forced to fight bitter, defensive
actions against superior numbers and
superior armament as we did during
the. first year of the war.
But we have still only begun to
fight—-and we now seem to be losing battles on the Washington front
and the home front which will eventually imperil the whole war effort
unless we get at the root of the difficulty and start doing as good a job;
at home as our troops are doing in
the field.
Bureaucratic bungling and ‘‘polities as usual’’ have been blamed for
much of the chaos and confusion in
our home economy, but there is a
third factor of at least equal importance in fomenting dissension and disunit and in disrupting the nation at
a time when it desperately needs to
stand united against the common enemy. That is the constant and increasingly brazen attempt on_ the
part of some of the men in high places in Washington to use the war as
an excuse and a tool for forcing a
change in our American form of government.
Vice President Wallace, whose philosophy inclines more and moe toward national socialism, has been a
leading spokesman for this group of
politicians and social reformers. In
one of his recent speeches, Mr. Wallace issued a somewhat ambiguous
warning that we must not ‘‘doubleeross’’ the Soviet government, The
American public, knowing that we
have been pouring supplies into Russia at-a tremendous rate, even at the
cost of delaying badly-needed planes,
tanks and other equipment to Gen.
MacArthur’s forces in the Pacific,
and to our fighting men on _ other
fronts, is still perplexed as to just
what Wallace meant, because this
country has never double crossed an
ally and isn’t likely to begin doing
it now. But if more recent utterances
of Wallace are studied carefully it
appears that what the vice president
was trying to say was that we will
“double cross’? the Soviet unless we
bring our own form of governmen
more nearly into accord with the Rus
sian form, so that we can work more
happily with Russia in “the new
world order.’’
If--that be the price of enjoying
Russia’s complete confidence, as Wal
lace infers, then this war will have
certainly cost us dearly. We have not
asked Russia to change her form of
government because she is fighting
on our side—and the people of America are beginning to wonder about
a vice president of the United States].
who spends his time, as he did in a
recent broadcast, declaring: ‘The
people’s revolution is on the march,
and the devil and all his angels cannot prevail against it.’”’ The American people thought they had engaged
to fight a war—not a revolution—and most of them still think ‘so, Wallace to the contrary, notwithstanding.
Evidencing the same trend toward
change in its form of government
while American boys are away fighting to defend the present system, and
while most of the people at home are
giving their undivided attention to
winning the war, was the recent report of the National Resources Planning Board, released by President
(Roosevelt. ,
This report, after recommending a
greatly expanded social security system allegedly designed to _ protect
every citizen from the cradle to the
grave,
lished by the government becoming a
“partner” in many: forms of business
and industry. Included were such
strategic industries as the railroads.
shipbuilding, aircraft, aluminum,
magnesium, etc. Labor, too, was rec-.
ommended for ‘‘a share in management’ of business. Just what share
the men who owned_ the _ business
would have was not made clear.
Fortunately, congress has shown
little inclination to accept the superstate program proposed by the National Resources Planning Board; in
fact it has recently discontinued the
board’s appropriation for its mainten
ence and the report just issued may
be its last. Fortunately too, the new
congress seems determined to resist
other attempts to engineer a social
revolution at home . while ‘we are
fighting a war abroad.
(But isn’t it about time that Washington officialdom devoted itself to.
solving the badly muddled food problem and the other critical problems
