IzAC AND BRIDGES
AND u. S. DEFENSE
(San Diego UniOn)

Voters in San Diego and Imperial coun
ties again would like to have an eXplana-
ton of Congressman lzac's vote against
the deportation of Harry Bridges, the
Australian labor agitator, whose actlVl-
ties have reduced Pacific coast maritime
Shipping to shambles. The bill to get rid
of Bridges passed the house by 329 to AZ.
Mr. Izac processes whole-hearted sup
port of our national defense program and
calls himself quite a naval expert. mas
much as one of the first requisites of an
effective national defense is the ellmln-
alton of fifth column" activities Mr..
Izac's weird logic, which leads him to
talk one way and vote another, simply
doesn't jell.
A few weeks ago Mr.. lzac was one OF
the score of congressman who voted
against continuation of the Dies commit
tee That bit of craftsmanship failed to
tie up with his professed admiration for
the administration which, at about that
time withdrew its objections to the COM
mittee and gave it moderate support. The
committees existence has been indicated
many times over in recent weeks. Appar-
emily, Mr.. Izac simply cannot keep up
with the times.
San Diego is one of the nations i'm
portant naval bases, where the fifth
columnists' might logically be expected
to make strenuous efforts to gain foot
hold. The philosophy of Harry Bridges is
recognized by nearly everyone III the dis
trict, except Congressman lac, as dang
erous to any program of national defense
either in industrial or military lines of
activity Consequently, when Mr.. lzac
votes for appropriations to build up our
defenses, and then turns around and
votes against the deportation of one of
the most dangerous figures engaged in
obstructing American progress today, he
adopts course that does not make sense.
Mr.. Izac doubtless fell into line with
the drooling argument that the deporta
tion of Bridges would constitute breach
of etiquette on our part and would be
contrary to the constitution, which stands
for liberty and freedom. He did not con-
slider that there is nothing in the cOnSti-
tuition that provides that we must toler-
ate the presence of an alien agitatOr who
scorns democracy; who sneers at the
American political and economic system;
who admits that he has received aid from
Communists, and who has left a trail of
industrial ruin wherever he has operated.
Neither did he consider that the thous-
ands of persons in@his district who are
straining every nerve to put into practi-
cal effect the defense program to which
he pays lip service, also are entitled to a
few constitutional guarantees-freedom
from the danger of an impudent alien
who seeks to destroy that which he can
not control.
Mr.. Izac should, in the interest of his
constituents, get his constitutional facts
on straight.

JOB SAFE EVEN
IF WILLKIE WINS
Congressman Marvin Jones was
rewarded for faithful service to the
administration with an appointment
to the U. S. Court of Claims in
the District of Columbia. The ap-
pointment was made in early
spring, and Mr. Jones told his con-
stituents he would not run for
reelection. They have had the
first primary in Texas and the
two leading candidates for Con-
gresham Jones job will fight it
out at the polls August "a.
But, in the meantime, the ad-
ministration has urged Congress-
man Jones to continue as chair
man of the House Committee on
Agriculture instead of stepping up
to the bench. The judgeship will
be held open for him indefinitely.
1t is even conceivable that if the
president should ask Mr.. Jones to
succeed Henry A. Wallace as secre-
tary of agriculture, the congress-
man might fill in there, then claim
his seat on the bench if Willkie
wins.
Despite evidence that defense

The old-time high school edu-
cation was liberal" That is, it

WASHINGTON, Aug. 20. - The
antitrust division of the Depart
ment of Justice will decide soor
whether charges against ASCAP
make a civil or criminal case.
The contract, by virtue of which
the American Society of Compos-
ers and Publishers collects royal
ties on radio broadcasts of music,
expires the end of this year. The
National Association of Broadcast
ers, to which more than half the
broadcaSting stations in the United
States belong, has set up its own
million dollar publishing business
in protest against ASCAP terms
NAB officials say its members
are willing to pay ASCAP a GER
tain amount for each piece of
ASCAP controlled music broad
cast, but that they object to paying
a percentage of their gross income.
INDEPENDENTS
MAY RENEW
Broadcast Music, Inc, the broad
casters new publishing setup, will
buy new music and use music
which belongs to the public domain

Independent broadcasters may re-
new their contract with ASCAP,
unless in the meantime the De-
artment of JuQice settles the fate
OF radio audiences by deciding that
ASCAP in protecting the interests
OF its composer and publisher mem
bers violates the Sherman act and
must change its ways.
ASCAP will feel the departure of
