But this administration cannot
fairly be charged with not having
done its utmost for labor.
1t is true that many Of these
fledglings Of the Blue Eagle have
turned out to be sick chickens. The
Labor Relations board needs a good
going over. The bituminous coal
commission has not yet laid a sub.

by the department of labor has been
bungling and inept.

Most important of all, from the

Congress Alone Can Declare
Military War but President
Wages a More Deadly Eco
nomic War Against Japan.
By HUGH S. JOHNSON

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES strate.
gy in the European war is to starve
Germany, just as it was German
strategy in both the World war and
this one to starve England. This is
economic war which can be more
deadly than military war, especially
to women, children, the sick and
the aged. rrsH -.
Measures less than war but more
than words" is misleading phrase
if it means that we will engage in
economic war. Military war re-
quires declaration of war by con-
gress. But this administration has
wangled many powers that permit it
to engage in economic war without
any reference whatever to congress.
In Chicago, the President, speak
ing of Japan, threatened to quar-
antine the aggressor nations" That
raised such a storm of protest that
it was soft-pedaled Nevertheless,
we seem now to be about to wage
economic war on Japan. By letting
the Japanese trade treaty lapse, the
administration has created a condi-
ton in which, by use Of other execu-
tive powers. it can wage economic
war to a remarkable extent.
Hacking ut Lifelines.
No nation can 60 very far down
the road Of economic war without
reaching place where military war
can't be avoided. In this very situ-
alton we are creating a condition
which has already involved seri-
ous military problem. Japan does

The pay as you go plan may be
slower, but it is sounder. This goes
for government, national, state,
county, city and township and for
the individual as well. There is no
virtue in loading up with debt while
we are young that must be paid
after we grow old.

Certainly we need the medium
bombers and the light bombers and
the 8O0-odd topnotch swift pursuit
planes that we shall have in our active
combat groups by 1941. But we also
need millions spent in experimenting
and developing - especially in the
field of heavy long-range bombers that
can buy peace by their threat.
1t would be a simple matter for this
present Congress to appropriate an
additional $25. ZOO. 900 for pure air

Flying Fortresses that can fly the
