Appropriations Chairman

The appointment of chairman of

ter of exceptional Importance to the
voteless citizens of Washington.
Their chief concern is to have that
locally powerful post occupied by a

Capital, who is willing to apply him
self energetically to the task imposed
upon him and who is essentially fair
minded in his approach to the many
difficult problems involved in run
ming the great city that is the seat

good fortune to have had a man of
these attributes selected to preside
over the vital House group which
will handle the city's appropriation

dependence on Asiatic sources of
supply and the uncertainties in the
present world situation, it is essential
that the United States accumulate
a large reserve Of rubber. Present
consumption is running about 100000
tons year. Stocks held by the Gov
ernment and by the trade are
equivalent to about six months
consumption, at the present level.
Though American industry is manu-
featuring synthetic rubber Of various
types, production in 1889 was less
than 1000 tons and not over 10000
tons in 1910. 1t will be several years
before production of synthetic rub
ber will reach a large volume.
To meet our emergency needs,
every effort, therefore, should be
made to speed purchases and de-
liveries under the r. F. c. program.
To lessen our dependence on i'm
ports from Asia, it is likewise i'm
portant that the production of
synthetic rubber be increased, that
there be a greater utilization Of re-
claimed rubber and that steps be
taken to develop Western Hemisphere
sources of supply.

Japunese Pi

Traditional of the Fourth Estate is
the splendid spirit of cooperation
among it's members. A paper suffer-
ing a mechanical breakdown may
call on neighboring journals for help,
and get it. In 1904, when most of
downtown Baltimore was in ruins
from a disastrous fire, the Baltimore
Sun was enabled to publish by uti-
lizing the facilities of The Evening
Star.
Occasionally, however, nothing can
be done. Every editorial heart will
weep for the trouble encountered by
the Japanese Weekly Times of
Fresno, Calf, but that is all it will
do; it cannot rush to the Times aid.
The metaphor may be mixed, but
not so badly as this unfortunate
papers Japanese type. A pressman
upset eight cases of type just before
press time. The Times has already
missed one publication, and may
miss another, before thousands and
thousands of scattered pothooks and
squiggles are assorted and restored
to their little nests.
$50 sorry please" the editor might
have announced to his subscribers
and advertisers If he had been of the
Hashimura Togo type made familiar
by Wallace Irwin. Words fail us
until same can be collected. Times
could publish through fire, flood,
hurricane and even earthquake, If
California Chamber of Commerce
will excuse mention, please, of for
hidden word, but not this. Honorable
Times are out of joint till further
notice. Confucius say greatest mix
up are Chinese hash, but editor say

also caused Commissioner Roosevelt to
do frequent explaining.
To a woman in Indiana, he wrote that
so few appointments were made from
the distaff side of the clerk-copy1st reg
lister. that we do our best to discourage"
women from entering these examina-
tions. He elaborated on this theme in
responding to a communication from
Wellesley College, saying that Most
appointing officers seem to prefer men,
about in the proportion of four to one."
The correspondence is spiced fire.
quently with the vigorous turn of ex-
preston for which the author in later
years became famous. Particularly is
this true in his rejoiners to editorial
critics, when he felt the bounds of pro-
priety had been transgreSsed.
He advised the editor of the old
Chicago Inter-Ocean that statement
relating to the reputed shortcomings of
civil service "is the exact reverse of the
truth" while the editor of the st. Louis
Republic was described as taking "a
position entirely unworthy of any hon.
orable man." for . similar ofiense.

Ethiopian Revolt

In Khartoum, at the junction of
the White Nile and the Blue Nile, sits
Halle Selassie, the Lion of Judah, dis
penSing arms and munitions to his
tribeSmen who are slipping in in
creaSing numbers across the border
from Ethiopia into the Anglo-Egyp-
tian Sudan to renew their pledge OF
allegiance to their Emperor, pledge
which they have not broken since
the little ruler fed his domain in
1885 for a restless exile in England.
Although Libya is the lesser jewel
in Italy's imperial crown, the defeats
the italians are experiencing there
are laying the groundwork for the
final conquest of Italy's empire, for
the building of which Premier Mus
solini led Italy to war in 1885 and
for the retention of which he bound
himself hand and foot to the Nazi
chariot.
Italy's empire in East Africa COM
prises now not only Eritrea, Italian
Sonaliland and Ethiopia, but also
British Somaliland, which the Brit
ish evacuated early in the war with
Italy, when it became evident that
it could not be properly defended.
1t was a strategic withdrawal pend
ing the larger movement, the begin
ming of which Halle Selassie's pres
ence in Khartoum signifies.
For the past week reports have
drifted, in growing number, out of
Cairo, London and the Sudan, Of
British preparations to close in on
Italy's rich empire. General Sir
Archibald P. Wavell, commander OF
the British forces in Africa, presum-
ably has his plans well laid for the
crowning British blow against Italy,
and London reports an offer for the
evacuation of Italian women and
children from the East African area,
evidently in preparation for the COM
ing offensive, after the Ethiopian
tribesmen, who are Britain's fifth
column in Ethiopia, have completed
their work of disorganizing italian
resistance.
That resistance is already substan-
TALLY undermined, if reports from
Khartoum are to be credited. After
a week of Ethiopian revolt against
the Italian conquerorS, routing of
FasciSts from their outpostS, attack
ing of military conveys and COM
munications and British bombings of
Adds Ababa, the British declare
Premier MusSolini's hold upon con-
quered Ethiopia to be restricted now
only to the towns and main roads,
points which themselves are under
assault by native guerrillas.
Halle Selassie and his people have
suffered much in the name of resist
ance to aggression, troubles which
they could have avoided by supinely
yielding to Italian threats during
1885 and to Italian bombing and
tank attacks in the winter Of 1856.
Their captivity and enslavement may
not have been entirely unavailing,
for Ethiopia has hopes now of being
the first of the aggression-st stricken
countries to rise again to independ-
ent nationhood. When that happens,
the British war against the axis will
have begun to pay worthwhile
dividends

Record Rubber Imports

That the United States, in recent
months, has made real progress
toward building up a reserve supply
of rubber, vital strategic material,
is evidenced in figures made public
this week by the Department OF
Commerce. Imports of rubber in
December, amounting to 97,984 tons,
were the largest ever recorded in a
single month, and imports for 1910,
totaling 818, lat tons, exceeded by
over 10000 tons deliveries for any
preceding year. Domestic stocks
of rubber held by the United States
Government at the end of December
aggregated approximately 10000
tons, an increase of nearly 27,000
tons during the month. A year ago
the Government had practically no
rubber reserve.
AS part of the defense program,
the administration is seeking, before
the end of this year, to accumulate
a rubber stock pile of approximately
417,OOO tons. Under a barter agree
ment with Great Britain, the United
States has traded American cotton
for $1,000 tons of rubber. Through
the Reconstruction Finance Corpora
ton, the Government hopes to &C
quire an additional $4,000 tons of
rubber. The current increase in i'm
ports seems to indicate that 1t will
reach its 1941 goal.
Because of our almost complete

eral years Of membership on the
subcommittee. -t.s
Chairman Mahon was the logical
choice for the position, not only
because he is the ranking majority
member of the subcommittee, but
because he is well acquainted with
the procedure of handling the local
budget estimates and formulating
the necessary appropriations legisla-
ton. In respect to experience, he
has an advantage over the six newly
appointed Democratic members of
the House District Committee, all of
whom will be serving their first
terms as local legislators" 1t is
interesting. to note that only one of
the six, Representative John E.
Sheridan of Pennsylvania, requested
appointment. All of these members
of Congress naturally are interested
primarily in their own districts, but,
with their assignment to District
legislation, they assume important
additional responsibilities having to
do with the welfare of the Capital of
all the Nation. If they discharge
those responsibilities as faithfully
and as equitably as Representative
Mahon has done in the past, and as
he may be expected to do in the
future, the citizens of Washington,
deprived though they are of full and
proper representation in the Houses
of Congress, will have cause for

Takes Exception to
Article on Paraguay.
To the Editor of The st

To the Editor Of The Star:
In your newspaper edition of Wednes-
day. January Is, 1941, read an interest
ing article on Paraguay by the we'll
known writer John Gunther, which not
only carries weight because OF It's au-
thors reputation but is of informative
interest to the people of this country.
I have been in Paraguay also ana, IKE
Mr.. Gunther, I have had an opportunity
of interviewing its President, Gen. MO-
rinigo. who is young man-not over ~
wears of age-who has won MS galoohS
and decorations in the Chaco War and
who has been one of the most efficient
collaborators of Gen. Estigarribia.
Judging from the visit I paid Gen
Morinigo, have the impression tnat ne
is a democrat who, due to his military
career. desires a strong democracy in
which not much time is lost through
unnecessary deliberation, but IN which
time is gained through action. L 1ouno
that he is a great friend OF the united
States, and I even discovered in him
a trace of pride when he spoke to me
about the highway which R. w. Heoard
& Co. of New York are building IN
Paraguay with United States money
This is the fruitful result OF the splen-
did policy of President Roosevelt, ne
said, adding, "a result which you have
witnessed as you went through our coun-
try" And, at this point, I wish to say
myself that, as matter of fact, have
found only in a few countries OF South
America an atmosphere and environment
so typically American and compatible
with our own ideals as in Paraguay.
The political program now being
carried into effect in Paraguay is the
constitution which was worked out by
Marshal Estigarribia last year in July
and the international policy which the
government of Gen. Morinigo is follow
ing is fully adjusted to that OF the for
mer who, throughout the Americas, was
known as a friend of the United States.
Of course, in Paraguay one does not
find the tranquility which we have in
the United States, but this should be
considered merely as a reflection of the
