The Political Mill
Third-Term Question Passes Stoge
Of Being Academic Issue

ern States that one man and one
political party might become so
dominant as to overthrow real de-
mocracy in America. He said in
conclusion:
Whether it was fear of the power
of a political party or of the power
of single man or both am not
certain, but do feel certain that
it was fear of one or the other or
both that impelled the restriction.
I am further persuaded to believe
that the growth of the United
States, with its consequent growth
in governmental functions and ac-
tivities, for the first 80 years of its
existence had brought about condi-
tions which indicated to many men
that its continued growth would
require for the general welfare more
and more power in the National Gov
ernment. Realizing the Inevitable
ty of this situation, the members
of the convention must have felt
that every limitation and restriction
which was reasonably possible
should be placed upon the exer-
else of that power to the end that
democratic processes not be restrict
ed or jeopardized.
"As I look about me and see the
great mass Of people who are neces-
sarily dependent upon the National
Government for their own personal
welfare as distinguished from the
general welfare-many of whom
feel that for that reason it is neces-
sary to continue in power the party
which Is responsible for the grant
ing Of these personal benefits-I
conclude that there was great wis
dom on the part of those who were
responsible for the limitation"

111IdIe Plants Offered
To US. to Speed Defense
b. the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
HARRISBURG, Pa, Sept. 21.-A
list Of Ill idle plants available for
use in the national defense program
has been submitted to the National
Defense Council at Washington by
the State Department of Commerce.
"All Of these plants are available
for immediate use for defense pur-
poses" said Secretary Richard P.
Brown. Some need not even be
converted before production of de-
fense materials can start, because
they were erected for that purpose
during the World War. Others are
more recent plants"
The buildings represent total ca
pacity of 26,589, 1872 square feet. Each
contains more than 100000 square
feet.

Paris apartments, abandoned by
their owners before the German
troops entered the city, is especially
thorough. Ofhcials of the German
government, accompanied by French
authorities, first enter an abandoned
house or apartment. Then they
take a complete inventory of what
is found, enumerating the sheets
and mattresses. as well as the fur
niture. Then they leave a confsca-
ton paper signed by the two officers
and put into the truck the contents
of the house.
The beautiful wrought iron fences
of the Loire chateaux and the
wrought ironwork of the doors
which have been there for centuries
also are taken to Germany-pre-
sumably to be used as scrap iron.
Legally Looted Shops.
Shops in France, Belgium, Hol-
land, Norway and Denmark also are
legally looted of what they may
still have. German soldiers and
officers come in and purchase what
ever they want, paying in special"
marks. These are ordinary Reichs-
marks with surcharge good for
France COR Belgium or any other
conquered country only" These
marks are changed into local cur
rency by the national banks Of the
subjected territories, but the Ger
mans will not accept them in pay
ment in Berlin for the cost of the
armies of occupation.
The relationship with the French
naturally is different than that with
the Dutch. Belgians and Nor
wegians. The French government
still has about $500, 100000 in the
United States and this considerable
amount has been frozen" by our
Government.
Accounts Are Scrutinized.
The Banque de France now has
very close" relations with the
Reichsbank, although officially it
still is an independent institution
controlled by the Vichy government
The Germans are trying to get the
French to transfer, or use in any
shape or form, this billion and a
half. but so far they have had little
luck in getting Secretary of the
Treasury Morgenthau to release as
much as a nickel
The Secretary Is allowing the
French Embassy in Washington to
draw on that amount for the needs
of the upkeep of the Embassy and
consular staffs. These accounts are
carefully scrutinized so there can
be no leak.

StokoWski, who shaped these young
people into the orchestral pattern
in no time at all and conducted the
series of eventful concerts on the
tour. took little of the honor of the
occasion to himself, but had the
PLAYERS stand at every opportunity
to receive their just need OF appro-
baton.
The audience last evening also
heard a note new to orchestral bod
ies-that of youthful exuberance.
The freshness, the vitality and the
elan of these musicians awakened
kindred spirit in listeners accus-
toned to the sedateness of maturity
in symphonic programs. They
played with rich, glowing tone, with
superb musicianship and with ar
tistic consciousness. No wonder the
applause carried a spontaneity and
an unrestrained pleasure that many
of the older orchestras have never
quite experienced.
Mr.. Stokowski made a remarkable
choice when he confined the first
part of the program to the works
of Bach. Into the hands Of youth
he put music that oldsters have not
always thoroughly grasped, and
showed the public what it is like
when the enthusiasm and the senti-
ment of fresh spirits are trained to
its appreciation. The renowned con-
ductor of the Philadelphia Orchestra
is a Bach specialist and his ideas
we're given expressive form by the
group freshly trained by him. The
great variety and beauty of nuance
which he draws forth from these
noble writings found wide play and
deep response from the orchestra
in the "Toccata and Fugue in D
Minor the Choralvorspiel. "Mein
Jesu was fuer Seelenweh befaellst
Du in Gethesemane," and the Pas
sacagla in C Minor" all transcribed
! for orchestra by Mr.. Stokowski. The
strings, with the cellos dominating
gave an exquisite performance of the
Arioso from the Concerto in F
Minor" for clavichord, while the
violins, alone, stood to play the pre-
ludio from "Partita in E Major"
with fiery zeal.
The program featured only two
composers. 1t must have been an
unwilling lack of good taste that
made Mr.. Stokowski choose Shosta-
kovich's Fifth Symphony" for the
second half of the program. While
this particular symphony of the
Soviet composer is not so thoroughly
devoted to an expression of political
and social convictions as some OF
his other works. it seemed hardly an
appropriate selection for the ALI
American Youth Orchestra, playing
its first concert in the National Cap
ital and against background that
pictured an entirely different ideol-
ogy from that espoused by the COM
poser. The orchestral literature is
so vast that a choice Of another
work would not have been difficult
even if no consideration of the
American composers entered into it
A gesture of special significance
could have been made by the inclu'
sion of at least one work, no n3ttel

Then. in 1921, long after his years
of retirement gave him a chance to
think deliberately and objectively
about presidential tenure, Jefferson
wrote again:
THE example of four Presidents,
voluntarily retiring at the end of
their eighth year, and the progress
Of public opinion that the principle
Is salutary, have given 1t In practice
the force of a precedent and usage,
in so much that should President
consent to be a candidate for a
third election, I trust he would be
rejected on this demonstration OF
ambitious views"
Yet Mr.. Roosevelt quoted Jeffer-
son approvingly as the defender OF
free government and by implication
took unto his bosom the Jeffersonian
philosophy, when, as a matter of
fact, the Democratic party today is
split wide open because Mr.. Roose-
welt chooses to ignore what Jeffer-
son said and what every President
Of the United States has respected
since the beginning of the Republic
