French pressure on the Siegfried

Soaring Prices

The food price "gouge" to which
the American public is being sub
jected before the war is week old
is evidence that the administration
was not minute too soon in an
ticipating skyrocketing commodity
prices and seeking effective methods
of control.
In the face of plentiful supplies,
sugar, flour and meat have regis
tered sharp advances in the past few
days, and it requires no stretch of
the imagination to see this trend
reflected in other lines in very short
order.
In announcing earlier this week
the formation of an Agriculture Ad-
visory Council in an effort to pro-
vide for orderly production, distribu-
ton and marketing Of foodstuffs,
Secretary of Agriculture Wallace
emphasized that the size of available
stocks should insure fair prices.
Therefore, in view of the rise that is
taking place, the only conclusion
that can be reached is that those
who control the sources of supply
are determined to profit by the war
time emergency. Strength is lent
to this argument by the situation
in the Capital, where distributors
point to the increase in their buying
costs in defense of the prices they
are asking. And Washington prob
ably is typical of the country as a
whole.
Unfortunately, too, the natural in
clination of the consuming public to
become alarmed at these price mani
festations and buy beyond current
needs as a safeguard against even
higher costs will tend to strengthen
the new levels.
Under these circumstances, the
study of price controls which the
Department of Justice has under
taken at the direction Of President
Roosevelt will be watched with Ma
tion-wide interest.
Attorney General Murphy has been
frank to admit that existing law Is
inadequate to deal with the situation,
although some hope has been held
out that vigorous enforcement Of
the antitrust laws coupled with the
fullest meas sire of nHblicitv for war
profiteering might have salutary ef-
feet. There also has been a hint
that conspiracy statutes might be
invoked.
The problem shapes up as one with
which Congress eventually will have
to grapple, and with World War
abuses still fresh In mind, there is
little doubt but that an alarmed
public will support whatever plan Of
action promises to avert repetition.

This seasons crop of young squirrels
is among the best In recent years.
There are more of them, and they
are more agile than usual.
Since these rodents are one OF the
adornments of semi-country living, sub
urban residents who watch the natural
life at their doorstep are going to have
rare watching from now on.
Do not turn a blind eye, If you live in
the suburbs, to the antics of these crea-
lures.
It is one thing to note them casually
and quite another to become really in
terested in watching them.
It Is easy on the eyes, for one thing,
and not as nerve racking as listening to
bulletins.
If there are trees on ones place, there
is no need of other lure.
Trees are squirrel heaven on earth.
If bird feeding stations are kept going
and sunhower seed used In the mix
lures, as 1t should be, this alone will
bring the squirrels.
Peanuts, of course, are favorites.
It Is always possible to get squirrels
with goobers.
Peanuts and sunhower seeds rank next
to nuts of many varieties in the squirrel
bill of fare All of these may be supplied
by the person who is interested, so that
squirrels will come If there are any in the
neighborhood.
Stories Of depredations by these rod
ents are true, but fortunately not one
squirrel in hundred ever acts that way.
And really there is nothing more
amusing in the everyday life than the
sight OF these bushy tailed fellows eating
a nut.
That silhouette, tail curved over back,
paws up to mouth, is unique.
No other living thing has It, 1t has
made such profound impression upon
mankind that no painter or sculpturer
has ever shown a squirrel in any other
pose, to our knowledge.
If you we're to flash up cut-out of it
on q screen, every person present,
whether from city or country, would
shout, That's SQUIRREL"
1t is something to identify ones self
so easily.
Most living things can't do it, but the
squirrel finds 1t just as easy as running
up tree trunk, than which there is
nothing easier for it except running
down one.
What is more pleasing to see, on going
to the window in the morning, than a
squirrel sitting a few feet away on the
sunporch roof, busily gnawing away on q
hickory nut?
The sight, so natural, honest and nee
essary, without harm to others, suddenly
leaves bad taste in ones mouth for
power politics

ington's streets and trafic planning.
At present the street program is
in a healthy condition financially,
due to the gasoline taxes paid by
Washington motorists. This tax
amounts to slightly more than the
highway departments share of the
joint appropriation. The fact is i'm
portant to the taxpayers Of the city,
since all highway costs are paid from
the gasoline tax receipts, source to
which the Federal Government con-
tributes nothing.
The reduction in the amount asked
for street Improvements Is wise at
this time In view of the survey which
is being made jointly by the local
government and the Public Roads
Administration. The survey, which
will require many months, will give
the first accurate picture of the en-
tire traffic problem of the city. It
will show not only existing habits"
of traffic flow, but the probable fu-
ture trends. Upon it will depend the
broad planning of future arteries,
grade separations and by-passes. To
delay the less important projects
which would normally be carried out
during the next year probably will
result in considerable saving
through better planning for actual
needs of the future.
One feature of the budget estimate
should be carefully worked out. It
is the one calling for installation of
traffic lights at twenty-four more in
tersections. These undoubtedly are
needed. If the new lights are ar
ranged, however, to provide greater
protection for pedestrians, the first
step will be made toward correcting
the engineering factors of the safety
campaign which have not kept pace
with education and enforcement.

Urges Open Collaboration
With France and Britain.
Tn the Editor Of The Star.

Events of the past week, climaxed by
the sinking of the Athena, leave no
reasonable doubt that the world is again
at war-and in earnest. Those of us
who expressed the opinion that Hitler
was bluf1ng and would not begin hos
tilities must confess complete error.
But these same events fortify, rather
than destroy, the thesis that Americas
duty lies, not In isolation or neutrality
but in open collaboration with Hitler's
enemies. The torpid conscience, the cal
lous brutality, the wholesale resort to
falsehood that characterized Hitler's
methods in provoking this war must
make clear, even to the dullest, what
the rest of the world may expect at his
hands if he wins.
The majority of Americans agree that
Hitler is menace to the entire civilized
that the defeat of England and France
by Hitler would be horrid calamity to
The democratic way of life wherever prac-
ticed. Yet, strangely enough, this same
majority of Americans also believes the
United States should remain neutral.
Now these two beliefs are entirely in
consistent with each other. Grand
balk at the thought-the majority of
Americans are willing to allow England
and France to undertake alone the de-
struction of what they concede to be
world menace.
True, the spirit of America is not what
it was before the New Deal came upon
the scene. Paternalism and radical doc
trines have weakened the fiber of its
people But refuse to believe the decay
has gone so far that the citizenry Of the
United States will sit back and compla-
Gently watch two other nations fight its
battle.
Iprefer to believe that all that is need
ed is clarihcation of issues; that, as
this clariflcation progresses, American
public opinion will gradually change,
eventually reaching point where war
upon Germany will be not only accepted,
but even demanded. H. N. STARK.

Germany should be dismembered and

Bismarck accomplished the unification of

Hitler is reported to have told the
German people last Sunday that I'VE
have never been slave people"
That must sound queer to many of the
German people, who certainly should
be aware of their present condition.
The fact is that the German people
first allowed themselves to become en-
slaved and then lent themselves to the
enslavement of other people, thereby
making of themselves a menace to the
rest of the world.

The 1941 Estimates

The $62,916,577 list of estimates
recommended by municipal depart
ment heads for the fiscal year 1941,
on which the Commissioners began
public hearings today, obviously will
have to be cut deeply to fit Wash
ington's pocketbook. But the real
question is how deeply they should
be cut.
It is difficult to predict this far
ahead what the city's revenue col
lections will be for fiscal year that
does not start until July /, 1910. But
on the basis Of present data, the only
safe course for the Commissioners
is to hold the total budget down
approximately to the $48 100000
appropriation total for the current
year.
Bearing in mind that the tax
structure recently enacted by Con-
gress barely balances that appropria-
ton total for this fiscal year, any
expansion of the next budget would
lead almost beyond doubt to still
further new tax burdens, on top Of
the increased levies of the past three
years.
And, considering the extent to
which Congress canvassed the field
for new tax sources during the past
few years, any further increase more
than likely would fall upon real
estate, which already bears the brunt
of the total tax load. When addi-
tional revenue becomes necessary
there is always a temptation to boost
the real estate rate, because it seems
simpler than devising new sources,
but it hits thousands of wage earn
ers who are trying to buy their
homes.
There is an unknown quantity in
the present revenue structure-the
new corporation and personal income
taxes-and it may be argued by
some that these will produce a
greater yield than has been esti-
mated. However, only the filing Of
the first returns next March will
answer that question, and, in view Of
the large number who will be exemp-
ted by the provision limiting the in
come tax to those legally domiciled
here, 1t would be unwise to figure
now on these taxes bringing in any
more than was calculated in bal
ancing this years budget. Indeed,
If actual experience should show the
"domicile" definition results in wide
spread exemptions, because of the
number of persons who continue to
regard some State as their home, it
would be strong argument against
continuing this form of tax.
Since pruning of the departmental
requests is inevitable, the public
hearings serve a most useful pur-
pose by giving city-wide and neigh
borhood groups an opportunity to
present their views on the relative
merits of different projects. The
policy of holding such hearings is
commendable.
If the Commissioners decide to cut
nearly $15,oo0,Oo0 from the depart
mental requests, it will not neces-
sarily reflect on the desirability of
many of the projects to be elimi-
mated. It will mean only that WASH
ington cannot finance a higher
budget now, without an unjustifiable
increase in an already heavy tax
burden.
