we'll have addedMaj G. Fielding Eliot
that Congress might properly re-
quire some assurance that the pow
ers will be efficiently used to attain
the purposes for which they are
granted.
Some of the objections that have
been made are fantastic. For ex-
ample, Herbert Hoover comes for
ward with the remark that so far
as he knows mo such surrender has
been made by the British Parlia-
ment, either in the last or in this
war" Mr.. Hoover should examine
with care the emergency powers
(defense) act passed by Parliament
August "a 1889. as amended, which
permits the crown to make such
regulations as may be necessary for
the public safety and defense of the
realm; to amend, or suspend the op-
Grafton of, any existing law; to de-
tain such persons as the secretary
of state may consider expedient in
the interest of public safety; to try
offenders by special courts without
recourse to a jury; to require any
person to place himself, his services
and his property at the disposal OF
the government, and to take pos
session or control of any property
or undertaking. These are "emer-
gency powers" indeed, and the Pres
ident has asked for nothing ap-
preaching them in scope.
"War Cabinet" Suggested.
But both on the ground of safety
and efficiency, and in the national
interest, Congress ought to take into
account the points which Senator
George mentions. as well as the
matter of organizing and imple-
menting the powers 1t is asked to
grant. In my article of Sunday I
made certain suggestions looking
toward the ends toward which it
may be we'll to recapitulate and am
plify:
I. That a committee of national
defense be set up to advise the Pres
ident and coordinate the defense
functions and policies of the execu-
tive departments and agencies, this
committee to function much in the
fashion of war cabinet. 1t might
properly consist of the Secretaries
of State. War, Navy, Treasury and
Commerce, the chief of staff of the
Army, the deputy chief of staff (air)
the chief of naval operations, the
director of the Office of Production
Management CMr. Knudsen) and
his associate (Mr. Hillman). To
this committee, or war cabinet,
might be added two or three emf
nent persons drawn from nom
official circles-names that readily
occur to mind as those of Wendell
Willkie, Bernard M. Baruch, Alfred
E. Smith. The President should be
ex officio chairman of the commit
tee, with a permanent vice chair
man, who should be one of the Pres
ident's executive assistants.
2. The President should have a
small permanent secretariat, includ-
ing carefully selected members from
the civil service and officers of the
Army, Navy and foreign services, to
function under the immediate direc-
tion Of the vice chairman. This Sec
retariat would be charged with the
keeping Of records and maintaining
iiaison with the executive depart
ments and agencies and with the
Congress. LiaiSon officers should be

Nav Prevent Party Bloc.

There is no doubt that the Wlllkie
statement, while containing a num-
ber OF bristling comments of c-iti-
cism on the Presidents failure to
consult the Republican leaders and
his unwillingnesS since the election
to drop partisanship, has been OF
ineStimable help to the all-alG-tO-
Britain program. With the few
changes suggested by Mr.. Wlllkle.
sucn as limitation on the power
ana authority to fixed term, the
measure has an excellent chance
of passage with a considerable num-
ber of Republican votes. II is very
doubtful whether the Republican
leadership will urge the House
members, for instance, TO vote as
a bloc as they did in September,
1899. when the arms embargo repeal
was up for passage. UnqueStionably,
the Republicans will divide on the
issue, as will the Democrats, and
there will be little likelihood of any,
thing like a party lineup.
incidentally, the provision sug-
gested by Mr.. Willkie for a fixed
term of perhaps two years in the
life of the lend-and-lease bill is
due to the fact that any repeal of
existing legislation always requires
a two-thirds vote of both houses in
the, event that the President does
not sign the repeal bill. BY MAX
ing a measure for a fixed limit. the
powers die automatically and for
an extension to be defeated there
need only be a majority In any
event, specific action raising the
question e. renewal of powers is
compelled when the legislation car
ries an automatic expiration date.
Mr.. WILKES announced inten-
tion of visiting Britain is consld-
cred here to be of the utmost i'm
portance in appraising future trend
OF events. Mr.. Willkie has wished
TO go out on the stump, if neces-
sary, to back the Presidents de-
fense program and all-aidtoBrit-
ain proposals and if after a trip to
Europe he is able to bring back i'm
pressions of the way the British
people are withstanding the on
slaughts of the Nazis. his utter
ances will have additional weight
with the American people.
May Refute Isolation Contention.
There has been, moreover, some
controversy as to whether the Brit
ish people have given up their
democracy under the wartime pow
ers which have been concentrated
IN the Prime Minister. Former Am
bassador Joseph Kennedy is re-
ported to have been planning soon
to make speeches on the effect of the
war on British democracy. 1t is
believed here that President Roose-
velt sent Harry Hopkins abroad
largely to gather information and
BACKGROUND with which to refute
those who are urging American iso-
lation on the ground that democ-
racy has been forfeited already by
the British people
With the returns of MeSsrS. Will
kie and Hopkins there should be
plenty of data on which to base a
Judgment concerning the effect of
the war on the social and economic
problems of the British democracy
and particularly on the methods be-
ing used by the British govern
nent to deal with strikes in defense

industries. Mr.. WILKES proposed
journey is in the interests of big
cause and justifies the faith of the
many voters who felt that if elected
he would follow out the principles
of the foreign policy of the United
States as laid down by the Presi-
dent and Secretary of State.
