No measure which involves such un.
foreseeable consequences AZ this
measure should be applied to indus
try as whole. II it Is to be tried
at all, it should be limited to a few
sweated industries. This would re-
move the worst difficulties and would
provide basis of experience by which
to decide whether to extend such leg
islation to other industries or whether
to discard it altogether following ex-
perience with it.
So far as achieving a revival in bus
mess is concerned. the most helpful
measure at this time would be for
the administration and the Congress
to do everything that would foster,
and to leave undone everything that
would diminish. public confidence in
the Government and its activities.
The past uncertainty as to tax meas
ures and as to all sorts of prohibi-
tions, actual or anticipated, should be
removed once and for all Stimula-
ton of class division and hatreds
should be replaced by policy OF con-
ciliation and cooperation between
workers and management in industry.
Our tax structure should be revised
at an early date, and the undistrib-
uted profits tax should be wiped OF
the statute books altogether. 1t won't
be enough to modify this tax. This Is
a pernicious and thoroughly undesir-
able form of tax and it should have
no place in Our tax system
The main thing is for the adminis-
tration and Congress to show by their
acts that they realize that prosperity
cannot be attained by governmental
decree, but that it can be brought
about only by establishing conditions
that will revive business confidence,
stimulate investment and encourage
private enterprise.

CATS PLAY

Hendersonville goes football
less this weekend as the Bearcats
20 to Mars Hill for another tough
game, and the Blue Ridge Hilltop
pers open their season against the
powerful Knoxville high team, un-
defeated in the past two years.
The Cats will be put through
hard work all this week in prepa-
ration for their second game, and
expect even sitter opposition than
was encountered in the Marshall
game last Friday.
The Hilltoppers, originally sche-
duled to face Biltmore College in
Asheville for their opening game
had this fracas cancelled when
Biltmore decided to desert the
football lists this season. In place
OF, this game, which would have
been comparatively easy, the Hill
toppers will get real taste of
fire and birthstone in their clash
with Knoxville.
However, Coach Bob Morris has
good material and expects his
boys to learn plenty in the game
with Knoxville.

negligence and complete disregard
for the sanctity Of civilian life In
the present case the facts recorded
above make clear that this was no
accident resulting from any normal
hostile operation, and 1t should have
been obvious to the aircraft that they
were dealing with -combatants.
The plea, should 1t be advanced,
that the flags carried on the cars were
oversmall Is irrelevant. The real issue
is that they were non n-combatants
The aircraft no doubt did not intend
to attack the Ambassador as such,
but they apparently did intend to
attack non -combatants, and that SUI
fees in itself to constitute an Tile
gality.
Moreover. 1t Is pertinent to OBJ
serve In this particular case that the
Ambassador was travelling in a local
ity where there were no Chinese
troops nor any actual hostilities in
progress. No Chinese troops were en-
countered by the Ambassadors party
until about one hours drive from the
scene of the attack.
See Wide Significance.
The government feels that they
must take this opportunity to empha-
size the wider significance OF this
event 1t is an outstanding example
of the results to be expected from an
indiscriminate air attack. Such
events are inseparable from the prac-
tice, illegal as it Is inhuman, of fall
ing to draw a clear distinction between
combatants and nom -combatants in
the conduct Of hostilities. which In
ternational law no less than the con-
science OF mankind always enjoined.
The fact that In the present case
no actual state Of war has been de-
clared or expressly recognized by
either party to exist emphasizes the
inexcusable nature of what occurred.
His majesty's government must
therefore request, firstly, = formal
apology conveyed by the Japanese
government to his majesty's govern
ment; secondly, suitable punishment
for those responsible for the attack,
and thirdly, assurance by Japanese
authorities that all necessary measures
will be taken to prevent a recurrence
Of incidents of such character.
