PANAMA CANAL TROUBLE


Although the Roosevelt Good
Neighbor program has been about SO
per cent successful in Latin Amer
lea, there is one contrary spot which
is causing army and navy officials
genuine worry. That spot is the
most strategic of all countries below
the Rio Grande-Panama.
Panama is now governed by
president who has all the earmarks
of leaning toward the Axis and who
is holding back on the granting of
important emergency landing fields,
anti-aircraft and searchlight posi-
tons on Panamanian territory to
the U. S.
The president, Arnulfo Arias,
served for six years as Panamanian
minister in continental Europe, and
now fetes Italian and German con-
suls in Panama while ignoring the
British and Americans.
He has also chosen as his secre-
tary a near-albino named Antonio
Isaza, who served as consul in Ham,
burg and whose fair hair and blue
eyes have caused him to be a great
rooter for the Nazi theory of suprem-
acy of the Aryan race Isaza seems
firmly convinced that Hitler is sure
to dominate the world and has had
great influence with his chief in the
presidential palace.
1t is important to remember that
in order to defend the Panama ca
nal, army operations outside the ac-
tual Canal Zone, on territory of the
Panama Republic, are necessary
This was provided for by the first
treaty negotiated by Secretary of
War William Howard Taft, and gave
the U. S. army the right to use Pan
amanian soil during emergencies.
However, the Panamanian govern
ment under President Arnulfo Arias
is now talking about ousting U. S.
forces from the vital U. S. army
air field at Rio Hato, which is on
Panama soil, and is holding back on
granting various emergency airports
and anti-aircraft gun emplacements.
So pronounced are the Nazi lean
ings of the president that his broth
er, Harmodio Arias, most influen-
tial newspaper publisher in Panama,
has quarreled with him. Harmodio
Arias gave Panama four years of
excellent government as president
from 1882 to 1886 and is one of the
chief boosters Of Panama-American
cooperation. His opposition, howev-
er. has brought threats that his pa
per. the Panama-American, would
be closed by the government.
Meanwhile. the state department,
worried over the situation, soon viii

F.D.R. RESISTS PRESSURE TO
SEND NAVY VESSELS WITH
SUPPLIES

The most important question dis
cussed in inner administration cir
cles before the President made his
recent defense speech was that of
using American warships to convoy
supplies across the Atlantic to Irish
or British waters. This question
probably was in the Presidents
mind also when he wrote the speech.
The problem has been debated
among some of Roosevelt's close ad-
visers ever since British emissaries
brought word that while England
could withstand airplane lombard
ment it could not withstand the con-
tinued sinking of its merchant YES
sells. The British also made it clear
that more average U. S. destroyers
would not do the trick, because the
royal navy was running short of
trained crews.
So far, the President has SHE'D
away from any such drastic step as
using American naval vessels to
guard supply ships across the At
lantic. Some of his advisers have
leaned toward the idea, but Roose-
welt has argued against it. He main
tains, first, that it would be in vio-
lation Of the Neutrality act and
could not be done without an act of
congress; second, that if an Amer
lean naval vessel were sunk it would
mean war.
Some of Roosevelt's advisers con-
tend that the last thing Hitler wants
is to bring the United States into the
war; that the effect on the German
people (who remember how the
United States tipped the scales in
the last war; would be devastating.
However, the President hasn't fallen
for the idea yet, though he is watch
ing carefully the effect of his speech
on public opinion.
N0te-One of the British Ennis
saries who put American entry into
the war bluntly up to Roosevelt was
the duke of Windsor. However, the
President replied that he had given
firm pledge to the American peo-
pie not to take them into war and
he did not intend to be another
Woodrow Wilson.

A NEW ORDER?

Early in this new year, there is
lot of talk about bringing new or
der. This new order seems to be
some kind of regimented society
socialism.
In England, Mr.. Winston Churchill
tells his people, there will be some
thing new-that more people will
have more privileges. Far be it
from this column to depreciate the
prime minister.
We might not agree with Churchill
but we must admit that, whether it
is his American blood or the British
blood of one of the greatest of SOL
diers. the duke of Marlborough, Mr..
Churchill is force in the world.
This is not intended to be a critique
OF war strategy. 1t is a criticism
OF economic strategy. Do we have
to remake our world on some sort
OF regimented pattern of human eff
fort? The idea on which America
was built was half Thomas Jefferson
and half Adam Smith.
Their greatest works came out in
the same year-l776. We don't hear
SO much about Mr.. Smith. We hear
lot about Mr.. Jefferson. Both said
the same thing in different ways.
They said that if we release the
energies of millions of people to in
vent their own fortune and future in
their own way the human race will
progress much faster than if we try
to tell people from some central fort
Of knowledge and goodness how to
be prosperous, free and happy.
II Is doubtless true that, in our
more crowded communities, more
regulation ID necessary. But there
u still no man sufficiently smart
70 be smart enough for all men.
There has been no man since Jesus
good enough for all men. What We
need u 10 continue our trust in the
mass Of u. After all, what went
before democracy was effort regi-
meated By some king or tyrant.

DEFENSE PR1OR1T1ES
There Is about to issue in WASH
ington an executive order recreating
something very close, in form at
least, to the War Industries board
Of 1918.
While it will not disturb the re-
cent quadumvirate of Stimson for
the army, Knox for the navy, Knud-
sen for industry and Hillman for Or
ganized labor; knudsen will be the
actual working member and the
show will center around him. Like
the 1918 organization, there will be
departments for priorities, comman-
deering and price control. Some of
the latter will not be the central or
ganization. Neither were they all
there in World War /.
The price-fxing commission was
then separate organization, housed
with the War Industries board, the
chairman Of which was a member
The Communicating section was
composed of officials of the various
purchasing departments and, while
It's orders had all to be signed by the
chairman of the big board, its or
ganization was separate.
OF these three key departments,
only the priorities commission was
an integral part of the big board.
In practice it made no difference.
They all worked in perfect harmony.
This is the general pattern Of the
new proposal with Mr.. Stettinius
probably at the head of the priori-
ties division, Mr. Sidney Hillman
conducting labor relations and Leon
Henderson presiding over prices. If
this happens, priorities and price
control will both be outside the pro-
duction office of the four-man control
and in the advisory commission.
II there is disagreement between
these two, the army and navy sec
retaries will have the deciding votes.
This is unfortunate. These gentle
men want ever-increasing produc-
ton and are bound to be impatient
with delay. The most obvious de-
lays will be labor strikes and dis
putes. II the army and navy side
with industry (Mr. Knudsen) the
welkin will ring with complaints not
only from labor but from every rad
zeal element in Washington. none of
which like this arrangement any
way, and all of whom think bust
ness men should not be in IT,.
So the armed services will come
IN for hail of epithets-reaction-
airy, Tory, brass hat, martinets, die
tatorial and even Nazis or Fascists.
This is too bad. Neither the army
nor the navy should be put in a
position of having to decide such dis
putes. Some wholly impartial
agency should do that and this or
ganization does not provide such
tribunal. The split in the ranks of
organized labor makes Mr.. Hill
mans position do,Iblv difficult

army-navy business. The men
working Washington for the old
line transportation interests have
been the most effective special
pleaders for many years.
Their competitors complain
that the army and navy have
adopted almost an unbreakable
rule of shipping men and ma
terials by rail, except when spe-
cial conditions require the use
of army conveys. Even when
IL would be more convenient and
cheaper to travel or move stuff
by bus or truck, the representa-
tives OF these forms of trans
portation maintain that the job
falls TO the rails. Protests,
mostly informal. have been filed
with the interstate commerce
commission, but relief is slow
in coming.
Army-navy officers officially
deny prejudice or Partially. But
off the record they explain that
II is habit. They have worked
with the rails for years, they are
more familiar with routes and
schedules. and il is easier 10 do
II the old way.
Former Vice President John
Nance Garner has told friends
that he has received numerous
attractive business offers. They
have poured in from banks, in

firms in flattering volume.
Despite his age, business and

scraggly Texan has many good
years in him yet. In some of

ton that the writers look for a
