American colleague comforts of
life. Two countries prevented
that. One of these countries was
the U. S. S. r. and the other
Japan. If America were to play
ball with the Reich, so we were
toold in 1893, the two countries
could keep Japan to what she
should always have been-a
third-rate power. AS for South
America, some of the German
friends of the United States
told us then, we should just go
right ahead and use any method
we thought fit to bring it into
line.
The collapse of Russia's mill
tary power may bring forth
another such peace offensive with
the necessary changes due to the
new situation. State Department
officials are fully expecting it. In
London Prime Minister Churchill
also expects an appeal to the
British people to stop this "use-
less slaughter" 1t is believed
that Hitler will take advantage
of the eventual purging of Stain
and offer the olive branch to
the western world. But those
who have followed the previous
German gesture are sure that the
new olive branch will have even
more poisonous fruit than those
which have been rendered US in
the past.

Russia is breathing heavily:
her aviation and tank corps have
been badly mauled; Stalin's
mechanical forces appear over
whelmed by the massed Ger
mans. Whether a guerrilla war

country's wealth and the harass-
ing of the German forces by
quick raids can be effective, re-
mains to be seen. Military OBJ
servers in Washington have little
faith in such operations under
modern war conditions.
While nobody here has any
tears to shed over Stain and his
group of incompetent advisers
and military leaders, there is no
question that if Russia goes un-
der it will be one of the greatest
tragedies of the present war. The

The Great Game of Politics
Presidential Action Seen Necessary in Price Control
Through Erecting Ceiling on Wages and Rents

that If prices are held rigid, while
continuous wage increases are taken
out of profits, ultimately there will
be no profits, ultimately there will
be no tax revenue for the Govern
ment, no business, no jobs.
Yet the clearly indicated action is
not easy for him. From the begin
ming, in this administration, the two
favored groups have been those of
organized labor and agriculture. For
eight years it has derived its chief
political support from them. For
eight years it has devoted itself to
giving them everything for which
they asked-and some things of
which they only dreamed. Now that
an unlimited emergency exists, now
when cooperation and sacrifice are
asked by the President of every
citizen, and when there is no excuse
for public men to think in terms of
classes and groups, we find these
groups demanding greater conces-
sions and more consideration than
beforehand getting it.
Could Get Cooperation.
And the administration, so long
accustomed to lean upon these
groups, has not-so far-had the
heart or courage, or desire, or what
ever you choose to call it, to curtail
their appetite or restrain their greed.
Yet, if it does not soon act to do so,
it clearly illustrates its purposes,
makes its own policies look foolish
and invites imitation.
1t would be an inspiring thing to
see the President fully measure up
to this situation. AS the most gener-
GUS friend of the unions and the
farmers who ever sat in the White
House, he is in better position than
any one ever was to ask them to &C
cept his judgment and give him sup
port for a step in the national inter-
ests. Moreover, with that kind of
appeal, there is little question that
he could get it. Mr.. Henderson, who,
despite his volubility, is an able man,
cannot make a fight of this sort by
himself. He has to speak softly on
the sensitive subjects of labor and
agriculture. The initiative must
come from the President. They boSl
know the facts. but only the Presi-
dent can present them effectively.

This Changing World
New Nozi Peace Offensive Expected

iSphere.
These four political entities
were to cooperate economically
since they each complement the
other. The original plan, as far
as Washington can make out,
has been somewhat modified.
North Africa from Tangier to
the Suez Canal is now consid-
cred as component part of Eu-
rope-hence Britain will have to
forego her influence in that
region. THE legalistic point of
view taken by the Germans now
is that Britain never actually
owned Egypt. That country has
been recognized as an independ-
ent kingdom. Hence Britain
would not be deprived of any of
her imperial territories if she
is asked to renounce her political
hold on Egypt. The Suez Canal
is international; Britain will
have just one voice in a board
Of directors composed of Euro
peans-all under the Nazi in
f1uence.
AS far as this country is con-
cerned, the belief is that the
old story whispered to us in
1888 will be whispered once more.
At that time we were told un-
officially that after all the Reich
looks on the yellow races with as
much misgivings as the United
States.
To Raise Living Standards.
Germany, so We were told, in
tends to raise considerably the
standard of living of its people
especially the factory workers.
The German workmen's ideal

power TO force Hitler to retain a
certain degree of caution. If Hit
Ter no longer has to worry about
an attack from the east he will
attempt an all-out campaign
against Great Britain.
1t is too early to predict wheth-
er he will strike at the British
Isles directly or continue his ef-
fort to carve up the empire first
by reducing the Suez Canal de-
fenses in a move through Iran
to the Persian Gulf.

In some diplomatic quarters it
Is believed the Fuehrer before
embarking into another cam
paign against Britain will make
another peace offer to London
and Washington. 1t is believed
that Herr Won Ribbentrop will
take advantage of the hatred
against Communism in Britain
and the United States and tell
the people of those two countries
that now that he has ridden the
world of its most destructive
element - Communism - he is
willing to talk pesce once more.
The tune will be the favorite song
the Germans have been singing
in the last II months-the new
order in the world.
In usually well-informed quar-
ters it is felt that Hitler will at
tempt now to make an appeal to
the masses rather than to their
governments, which can see
through this new order" The
old theme which used to be
whispered to us here in Wash

Frank X. hent. pends whether
we can avert the aff1iction of inf1a-
ton and keep the cost OF living from
rising to painful heights. This is
the reason Leon Henderson, whose
past affiliations with the more ad-
vanced group of New Deal insiders
were not calculated to inspire gen.
eral confidence, now has the good
will of a great many who formerly
looked on him as a somewhat gar
rulous theorist, heavily inclined to
the radical side.
These are still able to think of
others better qualified for the job.
But Mr.. Henderson has the job Cat
$4,000 a year,, and that certainly
is that. The strongest supporters
of Mr.. Roosevelt's foreign policy are
men who have opposed nearly all his
domestic policies. They may prefer
another leader, but he is the Presl-
dent and there is no way to i'm
plement the ideas which they deem
vital except by supporting him. And
that they are doing. In minor
way. they feel the same about Mr..
Henderson.
Encouraging Sign.
1t is encouraging, therefore, to
find the latter accepting the view
that it is impossible to put an eff
fective ceiling over prices without
putting ceiling also over wages and
rents, which are the chief factors
in prices. One does not have to be
an economist to grasp this fact. 1t
is clearly basic. No one even argues
against it. In addition to flexible
ceilings over prices, wages and rents,
there also must be a tax program
that will reach the great consuming
masses in a way to restrict their
purchasing power. 1t is automatic
that real price control requires
every one of these things. In this
matter, it is all or none.
1t can be accepted that Mr.. Hen
derson is sincerely anxious to avert
imitation; that the situation is grow
ing dangerous; that he has no power
to cope with it; that what he Is
doing, without power, is, through no
fault of his own, haphazard, hit or
miss, Intellectual. Of course, he
should have been given legal au-
thority many weeks ago when he was
first appointed and not permitted to
founder helplessly about while the
spiral began to get under way. But
it is not too late If the President
promptly will present his legislation
to Congress and if the public will
register strongly against those men,
bers of Congress who, refusing to
consider the general good in a ma
tional crisis, oppose any sort of price
control because of the protests from
special groups among their con-
stituents-notably labor and agri-
culture. Apparently there are men
who. to appease the lobbyists of
these groups, are willing to expose
the whole Nation to disaster.
Trouble in Getting Action.
However, they are in small
minority, and there would be no
difficulty in overcoming them If the
President would put himself force
fully behind a bill to give his price
controller the instruments without
which he cannot function and at the
same time recognize that a policy of
simultaneously putting stills under
food prices and permitting wages
steadily to rise completely nullifies
the whole price-control effort-ren-
ders it, in fact, joke. The trouble
is to get the President to act in this
way. Just as well as Mr.. Henderson

thought on the subject-he knows

In this feverish period, with the

great torrent, the business of price
control is so vital to the Nation as a

sequences outlasting the present
emergency. If, as a result of a
housing emergency due to the
sudden expansion of defense in
dustries, the principle is estab-
liShed that the Government must
subsidize rents for workers, that
principle will not be abolished
with the end of the war emer-
gency.
Eventual Demand for Subsidy,
That there is housing short
age calling for Government ac-
ton is undeniable. The Labor
Department has estimated that
there are 100000 workers en-
gagged in the defense industries
and other agencies report a short
age of some 100000 dwelling
units.
Congress has made all its ap-
preparations for defense housing
on the condition that they shall
be used only where private cap
ital fails to supply the shortage.
But is can also be argued that
as long as the predominant Gov
ernment policies with regard to
defense housing are followed, pri-
vate capital never will supply the
shortage. For the policy of the
Government that involves a
heavy subsidy to a small per-
centage of defense workers Gre
ates a situation with which pri-
vate industry cannot possibly
compete. and will eventually Gre
ate demand for subsidy on the
part of all workers.
What Should Be Done.
The Government ought, there
fore, to set up defense housing
program of such a nature that it
could be followed by private cap
ital and create model for fur
ther housing activities after the
war emergency has passed. In
other words. the defense housing
program should be of such a ma
ture that it can pave the way for
grandiose slum clearance and re-
housing projects in the future, in
which both private and public
credit and capital might be en-
gagged.
This would mean that the
houses must be economic-that
the workers who occupy them
must pay for what they get,
with all speculative values
squeezed out.
If the Government goes on
with a system whereby rents are
gagged by wholly uneconomic
factors, such as the workers
ability to pay. so that one worker
pays one rental and another for
the same facilities, another
subsidy to some and no subsidy
for oJhers-We shall be heading
for serious political troubles.
Under such conditions whole
blocks of charity recipients are
created, who can be politically
manipulated, and friction in
variably follows with the STEP
children, those whose superior
earning power turns out to be a
liability to them rather than an
asset.
Unwise Procedure.
There is plenty of experience
in other countries to show the
lack of wisdom of such pro-
cedures. The Austrian Social
Democratic party rehoused the
workers of Vienna in a grandiose
manner, but the superior facili-
ties offered to one part of the
population at the expense of an
other, turned out to have fateful
political consequences.
Moreover, in this country,
which was the first in the world
to understand mass production,
there is no reason why housing
should not be produced at price
that workers are able to pay.
Mass production of housing has
not occurred because there was
