Rotary Speakers Praise
COURAGE Of Chinese Troops

The courage of Chinese soldiers
and integrity Of Chinese public Of
ficials were lauded yesterday at the
local Rotary Clubs observance of
Rotary International's China
Day"
With Tswen-ling Tsui, First Sec
rotary of the Chinese Embassy. and
former Ambassador Alfred SEE as
honor guests at luncheon at the
Willard Hotel, members beard the
Rev. Raymond Fitch Kepler, as.
sistant pastor of the Covenant First
Presbyterian Church, speak on his
experience as a missionary in China.
The Chinese government Is the
most successful in the world from
the standpoint of long duration,
said the Rev. DR.. Paul H. Furfey,
head of the sociology department
of Catholic University.
Part of the reason for It's sur
vival through 5000 years, he de-
clared. lies in the respect the Chi
neSe have for government.
Chinese public cfiicials, continued
DIR. Furfey. have stubbornly resisted
anything less than a fair govern
ment by their emperors. 1t is time,
he concluded. that Americans re-
alize they have as much to learn
from China as the Chinese have
to learn from America.
A. p. Reeves, president, presided
over the luncheon, held as part of
a Nationwide program by Rotary
this week to honor China.

thetic characters come over into the
new version with no visible distor-
lions or retouching and Catholic U.
graduate players are never awed by
their strangeness to such roles. Lin
den, professional guest star, gives
an excellent portrait of the tragi-

his lust to escape his drab back

that is equaled by Mary Finnerty's
portrait of the simple, humble Rose

tragic undoing of both. Miss Fin

manages enough exquisitely balanced
moments to compensate.
Others who invest their roles with
ample conviction are Cecilia Brown

WASHINGTON, Jan. l9-tR
"A proposal by John L. Lewis
that the ALL and Go try once
more to find a common ground
for reunion failed to elicit i'm
mediate signs today that organ
lied labor's two big houses, d.
vided and warning since the fall
of 1896, would agree on way

The boss of the United Mine
Workers of America, biggest un-
ion and financial mainstay Of
the CIO, addressed his plea Sat-
urday to CIO president Philip
Murray and AFL president Will
liam Green.
Although It was assumed gen.
orally that Murray would assent
he made no public pronounce
ment for the time being and
Green said only "our peace COM
mittee stands ready to meet with
a committee from the Go at

Daniel j. Tobin, ALL vice
president, commended the best
that could be expected from con-
ferences at this time would be
a truce. 1.-THE reason Lewis ask
ed that peace conferences be re-
opened was because he was the
one who adjourned the 1899
conference and had promised to

Lewis, asserting that "labor
imperatively requires coherency,
in order to give maximum assis-
lance to the nation In its war
effort" suggested in letters to
Green and Murray that ALL and
Clio peace committees, which
failed to work out an agreement

Broken Bodies
of Victims
are Recovered

LAS VEGAS, NEW. Jan. 10
R-The shattered bodies of
actress Carole Lombard and
eight other persons among %
killed In q mountain-top plane
crash Friday night lay in q Las
Vegas morgue today while men
toiled through snow to bring the
remaining Is victims down from
the crash scene.
The dead included Miss Lom-
bard and her mother and two
other women, the actress press
representative and Is army
filters In addition to the pilot and
co-pilot.
Recovered from the plane
wreckage late yesterday were
the remains of two women and
seven men.
Wisps of blonde hair land the
general contour of her face"
served to enable Edgar j. Man.
nix, vice president of M. G. M.
studios, to identify one body as
that of Miss Lombard. A three
man Jury, conducting a special
inquest, decided that she died OF
injuries sustained in 1.-THE crash
of a r. w. A. liner enroute from
Las Vegas to Los Angeles"
Another inquest will be held
when all of the bodies have been
recovered.
Actor Clark Gable, who flew
here upon receiving word of the
crash Friday night, remained in
seclusion at q hotel. Friends said
he was too numbed by the shock
of the death of his wife and her
mother, Mrs. Elizabeth Peters
and their close friend, studio
press agent Otto Winkler, to talk
to anyone. Unable to leave his
film duties, Gable last week had
asked Winkler to accompany
Miss Lombard to Indianapolis
where she aided in a sale OF
defense bonds.
Spencer Tracy, q close friend
of the actor, drove alone to Las
Vegas Saturday and was ex-
pected to accompany him back
to Hollywood. Studio officials in
Los Angeles were making ar
rangements for q double funeral
for Miss Lombard and her moth
er, to be held probably Wednes-
day or Thursday.
Deputy Coroner Jack Larry
said 1t might not be possible to
complete the task of removing
the bodies from the remote peak,
35 miles southwest of here, and
of identifying them, until to-
morrow.

Auto Dealers
Char Future
Representatives
Meet at Chicago

CHICAGO. Jan. 10 R -
Representatives Of the nations
$4,000 automobile dealers met
today to chart their uncertain
future in an industry which Is
turning over Its entire produc-
tive capacity to ornaments.
The meeting marks the silver
anniversary Of the national
automobile dealers association
an organization founded during
the last world war when pro-
duction curtailments and drop
in sales posed similar, but less
critical, problems.
With the manufacture of new
cars ordered shut off complete
ly, q spokesman said many
dealers were threatened with
possible insolvency and that the
Jobs of an estimated 100000
employees in garage and sales
rooms were uncertain.
One Of the several suggestions
under consideration contem-
plates the pooling of the garage
forces of dealers in larger cities.
An effort would be made to
obtain small war orders to keep
the men employed.
Discussions also conferred on
service work. employer-employe
relations, the wage hour law
and federal credit regulations.
Ben T. Wright, president of
the Chicago Automobile Trade
Association, said the obligations
of the dealers was "the main
tanning Of essential motorcar and
truck transportation" "
Private automobiles carry
the bulk Of workers to and from
their jobs in airplane plants,
arms factories, powder plants,
and other military establish
ments," he added. Farmers
need cars and trucks to enable
them to do their part. while
factories are seriously depend
ent on morton trucks to supply
them with their needs.
Dealers must keep these
vehicles running II the victory
program is not to be hampered."

the three day sessions were Will

rector for the war department;

istrator, and Sen. Clyde L. Her

When.the Roberts Commission re-
port on the japanese raid on Hawaii
was released for publication Janu-
ary "a, the public almost instantly
began to inquire about the identity
of one anonymous individual men
toned in the text. This man, it was
alleged, was "a noncommissioned
officer who had been receiving train
ing" in the use of the aircraft detec-
ton system operated from four to
seven o'clock each morning. 1t was
explained that he had requested
that he be allowed to remain at one
of the stations and was granted leave
to do So" Hence it happened that
"at about 7:02 am, he discovered
what he thought was large flight
of planes slightly east of north of
Oahu, at a distance Of about 100
miles" Voluntarily, he communi-
Gated his find to a lieutenant who,
unfortunately, supposed that the
approaching aircraft were American.

Worthwhile Experiment

The introduction next week of a
taxicab pickup" service, authorized
by the Public Utilities Commission, is
frankly an experiment, and as such
1t should be given q fair trial.
There is no reason to expect any
notable results. The number of par
ticipating cabs will be limited, they
will operate in the downtown areas
and only during rush hours, and the
experiment will be limited to a
thirty-day period. Yet even this
limited trial should furnish some
basis for determining whether the
proposal has any real possibilities.
Objections to the experiment have
been advanced, principally on the
ground that the pickup taxis might
congest bus stops and clog downtown
traffic. In advance of any showing
to the contrary, however, it is diff
cult to understand why four pas
sengers riding in one taxicab should
cause more traffic congestion than
four taxicabs hauling one passenger
each.
It may very well be that the COM
mission, after the trial period, will
conclude that pickup service is not
feasible in the District. Should
that be the case, it is to be expected
that the project will be abandoned.
Meanwhile, there is no reason to
condemn in advance of trial an ex-
pertinent which can cause no harm
and which may contribute some
thing toward a solution of the
Capitals increasingly serious traffic
problems

Prime Minister OuisIino


Time was when Major Vidkun
Quisling was regarded as an honest
man, esteemed a good and loyal
soldier. For services rendered to a
friendly government while stationed
in Moscow in 1929 he received the
Order Of the British Empire. His
sovereign, King Haakon VII in 1881
approved his appointment as Min
lister Of Defense, charged with the
administration Of his country's army
and navy. Just why he should have
turned Fascist is one Of the mys-
teries Of the "age of confusion"
which still unhappily prevails.
What the world does know is that
Quisling "has added a new word to
the English language" The London
Times observes: "Aurally, it contrives
to suggest something at once slippery
and tortuous. Visually, it has the
supreme merit of beginning with a
@, which with one august exception)
has long seemed to the British mind
to be crooked, uncertain and
slightly disreputable letter, sugges-
tive of the questionable, the queru-
lous, the quavering of quaking quag-
mires and quivering quicksands, OF
bubbles and quarrels. of queasiness,
quackery, qualms and quilp."
But QuiSling himself is nothing to
jest about. Both Franklin D. Roose-
velt and Winston Churchill have
indicted him at the bar of history.
The living symbol of treason, he is
in the twentieth century a sordid
equivalent of Benedict Arnold in the
eighteenth. Yet his crime exceeds
that of the disillusioned hero Of
Quebec and Crown Point, first, be-
cause. especially on April 9, 1910, it
succeeded, and second, because, as
has been apparent ever since that
tragic date, it has hurt the whole
civilized world.
Now Adolf Hitler has promoted
his creature to be a puppet Prime
Minister OF Norway under Nazi occu-
patton. A celebration of a sort has
been staged at Akershus Castle in
Oslo, and Quisling has been invested
with nominal rule Of the captive
Norwegian people. His lieutenants
will be the governors or fylkesmann
OF twenty provinces. The appointees
are drawn from the membership Of
the Nasjonal Samling, as the NTH
column movement is called. Legal
authority, meanwhile, remains with
the exiled government in London.
Fate will determine Prime Min
lister Quisling's personal future. But
whatever happens to him now will
be anti-climax. He already has
made himself immortal. Years
hence people will know the meaning
Of "a quisling" without knowing who
he was or what he did
Evening star., 1942-02-03

Movements will arise. No doubt
there will be instances also where
the separation of families will create
complications. With these and
kindred problems, the Government
must be ready to cope.
1t is not unlikely that the order
will cause hardship in some cases
despite the best efforts of the Justice
Department to avoid it. That, how
ever, cannot be helped. The restric-
tions are necessary in the interest of
national security.
