TWO-WAY LEkD-LEASE

The statement Of Edward R. Stet-
tinius, Lend-Leose Administrator, is q
useful reminder that the United
Stotes has no monopoly on aid to the
AIIies," but is itself the recipient Of
many essentials from other United Ma
tons. American troops in many ports
Of the world are getting transport,
food, equipment and other facilities
from Allies. The British and Russians
ore furnishing inventions and technical
information on weapons tested in the
war.
Through the simple machinery Of
Iend-leose much Of this aid to Amer
ico can be used to cancel the obIiqa-
tions which other countries have in
Cured in the United Stotes. Not only
will lend-Ieose obvjote some Of the diff
tlCuIties of the wor-debts situation
which complicated the last peace, but
it facilitates the pooling Of United Ma
tons resources in q most efficient
manner for the war effort. Especially
does it help to avoid unnecessary trans
transport problem.
The advantages Of this mutuoIity
ore SC greet that some economists ore
hoping that the system can become the
nucleus for O freer economic world in
the postwar period. The reciprocity
ideo certainly should have peocetime
uses. Lend-Ieose ought to shortcut
some debt and toriff difficulties. But
no financial device will suffice unless
the peoples learn better the fundomen-
advantages Of freer trade and 3D.

SOUND THEORY

Recent Supreme Court decisions,
notably that on the Jehovoh's Wit
nesses case, suggest that we cannon
abolish split decisions by changing the
courts personnel. Nine smart men,,
weII-informed and accustomed to form
ina their own conclusions, inevitably
will differ often on moot points, which
supposedly ore the only matters which
reach the highest tribunal.
The decisions indicate also how
deep-eroined is the American concept
that the courts ore not suPer-leelsIo-
tive bodies - thot within certain broad
bounds, the people must be permitted
to suffer for the errors Of their chosen
lawmakers. Thot was the expressed
theory of the conservatives" or re-
dictionaries" who used to make up the
court; that is the theory Of the lib
eroIs" or radicals" appointed by
President Roosevelt. 1t is q very sound
concept.

realistic shores and a vast, ro-
seate backdrop of sky, bigger
than 20 billboards. The two

big enough for a man to
crouch in them, guide them in

HOLLYWOOD, June 10 -
Tyrone Power, handsome as
anything in a pair of floppy
black pants and nothing else,
and Miss Maureen O'Hara, in

old-fashioned lace union suit,
had just escaped the clutches of
that evil pirate, George Sanders,
and were ready to hide in a

they didn't look it. Too dry.

trically heated tank with a

Charter Could Moscow ever agree to
mo territorial oggrondizement" and no
interference in the internal affairs Of
her neighbors? Even among the Allied
peoples who fully appreciated that Rus
sio was doing the most active and eff
fective fighting against HitIerism many
could not forget deep theological diff
~ferences.
In Europe every United Nations
effort to win more active opposition to

But if Hitler falls, what will stop the

Czechs, Swedes, not to mention the n
shaved Balkan peoples, had very
concrete question, "Where will the
Russian border be in your new Europe?"
Every victory for the United Ma
tons only occentuoted the questions.
The closer came the prospect Of peace
the sharper became the problem Of
Russio's place in it. 1t was no secret
among close observers that London,
feeling the ear impoct Of the fighting
and realizing fully the value of Rus
sio's help, was troubled about rejecting
Moscow's ideas for buffer states.
Washington, fully informed about the
conduct Of British-Russion negotio-
tions, finally added assurances about
q second front. These-bocked by the
convincing evidence Of British-Ameri-
q supplies on the Khorkov front and
the RATS lOOO-pIone sweeps-heIped
to resoIve' the imposse.
Indeed, it is the very great and real
omeliorotion Of feeling as between
Russio and her western partners which
is the best guarantee that the new
agreements will be effective in winning
the war and the peace. 1t would be
folly to expect from this change any
such fundamental partnership as exists
between EneIish-speoking and demo-
cratic peoples themselves, but the war
has proved that the offinities Of seIf-de-
Tense are stronger than the ontipothies
Of political doctrine. The urgencies Of

THE COST

One suggested remedy, sold
Reed, would be the creation
Of O government agency ou-
thorized to do three things.
Briefly:
!. To defroy maintenance
costs during enforced shut
down.
z. To make loans to por-
tioIIy closed plants unable TO
operate at O profitable level
because Of material SHORTAGES
during the war, and unable to
obtain other financial assist

3. To make loans up to the

tories Of semi-fobricoted ports

col row materials now needed

Estimating that if such loans
ond maintenance charges ran
up to 5 per cent Of the Sd
billion business which these
1900 did in on average year,
Reed got the minimum figure
OF $500 million which would
be the annual cost Of keeping
these small business firms
Give till the war is over.
The question is whether il
IS worth that much to keep
these small businesses alive,
or whether the country should
sove that money, let the small
businesses 90 bankrupt, and
toke O chance thot they would
spring up again like desert
flowers in the spring.

RUSSIA EkLISTs FOR THE PEACE

On the Russian front the United
Nations have just won q victory sur
passing anything Hitler has achieved
in his Drong mach Osten. The British
Soviet mutual assistance poet and the
RooseveIt-MoIotoff agreement solidify
the tremendous reshifting Of world
power which Hitler SO ~bIunderineIy set
in motion when he attacked Russia q
year ago. They crystalline for the war
and probably for the peace the coIIec-
tive security system gradually forged
out Of the United Nations by the ham,
mer blows Of Axis aggression.
For years before the war started,
the big question was whether the war
machine built by the Nozis would move
cost against the Soviet or west against
France and Britain. At Munich it op-
peored to be turned east. But when
Britain, morally outraged by the Sci
zure Of Bohemia and owoking to the
scale Of Nozi ambitions, surprised Hit
Ter by supporting Poland and Rumonio
against q continuation Of Germony's
movement east, Hitler hastily souqht
to immobiIize Russia while he turned
back to the west. From April TO
August Of 1889 Britain and France
strove to hold Russia in q coalition
against the Nozis. Their failure was
the signal for war. The success Of
Britain and America now holds the
promise Of winning the war and the
peace.
The 1899 effort broke down be-
cause Russia, doubling both the good
intentions and the power Of allies who
had been neither friendly nor stronu,
wished to erect her Moginot Line
OF buffer states. When the British re-
fused to ogree TO Moscow's plans for
absorbing the Baltic Stotes, neaotio-
tons broke down. In 1912 there wos
tor some time greet danger Of failure
TOR the same reason. The Russians,
seeing little official disposition in
Britain or America to open up q vest
ern front by q real land invasion, we're
urAiIling to think Of peace aims which
left them no buffers.

celery the big question wos, How q

. BEHIND THE SCENES
IN WASHINGTON Q

lion q year. II works out some
thing like this:
The country has some 1884,
600 manufacturing p ont S.
The National Small Business
Conference Of Ch o, q
strictly private trade ossocio-
ton, estimates that Of this
number, only about IS, 900
can be converted to war pro-
duction. PessimisticoIIy there
fore, the conference predicts
thot eventually 10000 plants
toce the possibility Of COM
plete wartime shutdown.
The Bureou Of Industry
Branches in the War Produc-
ton Board soys this estimate
IS for too gloomy. The WPB
guess is that Of these $4,000
manufacturers, all but per-
hops $4,000 can keep going
during this war production ero.
The prospect Of $4,000 small
businesses being shut down.
ond by Oct. !, l942-is MOTH
ing to cheer over, but it's
brighter than the outlook of
$4,000 plants being forced
10 the wall.
Whatever the number even
tuoIIy put out Of business, the
reasons for their shutdowns are
{ r. The War Production
B oar d, to conserve critical
materials and to release ma
chinery for the making of war
supplies, has had to prohibit
completely the manufacture Of
thousands Of items made for
civilians in times Of peace.
DEADLY AS BOMBS
These stop orders are one
OF the most serious aspects Of
the war. Like bombing roids,
they ore unavoidable, but they
ore just os deadly as though
bombs actually we're dropped
on some $4,000 or more small
factories scattered over the
country. Statistics on these
businesses - what firms they
ore and how many employees
they have - ore unavailable.
It you count only the smallest
$4,000 manufactures, they
represent q 81 billion q year
productive capacity.
The Murray = Potmon bill
will save q number Of these
firms, but it must be borne in
mind that the Smaller War
Plants Corporation will be re-
stricted by law to helping war
production. The purpose of
the bill is not to sove small
business os such, but TO help
finance plants that can be
converted to monufoctur n O
war supplies or the minimum
requirements Of civilian econ
omy. There is still no help in
for the little fellows who
can't convert and cont be
materials for non-essen-
tioI production.
One Of the cIeorest stote-
nents Of the problem facing
these manufacturers and an
analysis Of what might be done
to save them was made recent
" by Philip D. Reed, now dol
Ior-o-yeor chief Of WPB's b.
