Imperial Valley press., 1942-07-23

Almost daily informed Washing
ton correspondents report new
pboses of war effort which are be-
ing handicapped by politics and
selfishness.
The tendency on the part OF both
administrative and legislative agen-
cies is to "let it wait until after
election
For example. there is the tax
nrooram. The Treasury asked for
a minimum of .7OO,O0O,00o The
House is providing $6,250,OO0,oo0.
The missing $2,45O,OOO,OOo is need
ed to help finance the war. Also,
experts generally agree. at least
this sum should be taken from the
public to help avert initiation.
Congress is expected to provide
the amount in a supplemental tax
bill Now? oh, no, After election.
We can't possibly acquire or make
enough rubber to supply our most
pressing war needs from mid-l943 to
around the middle of 194l. Unless
tires now being worn out in pleasure
driving are saved for war use. we
are going to find ourselves in trou-
BILE.
Informed opinion is that civilian
tires are going to be requisitioned-
perhaps all, perhaps those in ex-
cess of five per motorist. Now =
while they still have a lot CT wear
in them? Oh, no. After election.
If tires are not to be taken, the
next best way to save them in part
is thought to be nationwide gaso-
line rationing to restrict their use.
That is seriously considered. Now?
How about waiting until after cleo
ton?

PUBLIC SECURITY
(Ontario Report)

An example of straight thinking was
evidenced by the announced decision of
OntariO's police force to sever all con-
nectionS with unonism Members of the
department are to be highly commended
for their action which, so they announced,
was Independent of the stand taken by
Mayor Peterson and Chief of Police Rob
berSon
1t is obvious that the members of On
tario's police force had failed to consider
all sides of the question when some of
them signed up for union cards. Two al
legiances cannot be espoused by officers
of the law. 1t rs their duty to dispense
law enforcement without fear or favor.
We know we express the opinion of the
majority of Ontario's citizens when we
say that we are proud of the officers in
our police department for their fearless
and impartial stand We also feel that
Mayor Peterson and Chief of Police Rob
berson have been correct in their announc
ed analysis of the local situation They
have not deviated from their original
contention that the police must in all
cases be free of any master other than
the public.
While we are commencing the police
department we wish also to call attention
to Ontario's fire department. At no time
was there any question in the minds OF its
members that they should serve two mas
ters. Fire Chief Gordon and his men have
remained apart from the union controver-
sy. Never did they consider allegiance to
any group other than the public.
Ontario is truly fortunate in the caliber
of the men who make up its two public
safety departments. We feel secure in
their hands.

THE THINGS We KNOW
ARE NOT CHEERING

The American people are not sheep, to
be constantly kept in dither of excite
ment by scrap rubber drives, scrap metal
drives, fear of losing their tires, fear of
gasoline rationing, fear of everything,
while they are also kept in ignorance of
any plans or actions under way to gain
the offensive-which has never yet been
ours.
The things we know are not likely to
improve our faith to such an extent that
we will leap into every new effort with
overflowing enthusiasm.
We know that many weeks ago we were
given to understand that President RooSe-
welt and Prime Minister Churchill had
decided upon a second front in Europe,
vet today We sec high government leaders
in Washington and London conferring
excitedly-and are told that the subject
of their conferences is a second front.
We know that whatever is happening
in the Aleutian islands is covered up from
public knowledge as completely as fog
may cover the islands themselves.
We know nothing whatever of our pro-
duction for war.
We know that labor unions, represent
ing tiny fragment of American labor.

politicians arc afraid of their voting

Gently advanced by various sources, for
a reversal in installment buying proceed
ure, appear to be very much on the credit
side Providing for regular payments
now on automobiles, refrigerators, wash
ing machines, and other heavy durable
goods, to be delivered after the war, the
plans offer wage-earnerS something tam
gible in which to invest surplus funds.
True, many individuals whose financial
status has not improved as result OF war
conditions, are finding their incomes
strained to the limit by rising living costs,
taxes, and war bonds Others, some with
real jobs for the first time in many years,
are now financially able to buy the things
on which they have cast longing eyes
throughout the depression years But the
goods have vanished, and, in Illustration,
such people are strongly tempted to spend
their money on .non-eSsentlalS.
The proposed installment plans offer
an attractive outlet for the buying urge,
and an added inducement in that partc
ipantS would be promised delivery of the
first postwar goods produced.
One proposal would allow for part pay
ment of dealers commissions at time of
sale, thus helping to preserve existing
selling organizations. Money collected
would be invested in war bonds. until
such time as the manufacturers resume
production
Thus the installment buying would
help prevent initiation, aid in sale of war
bonds, and furnish a backlog of paid
orders with which firms could start nor
nal activity after the war.

DEFEATING OURSELVES
ON THE HOME FRONT

We've Leen at war more than seven
months. and the people are beginning to
wonder if Washington knows war Is
going on.
That the people know it, no one can
doubt who will take time TO listen on
street corner. i'm a cafe, theater, or any
other place in which Americans gather.
They are willing and ready to make any
sacrifices necessary TO win the war lhey
are willing 10 take any risks, assume any
CANDLES. which might speed victory on
ITS way
Washington needs the same attitude.
Washington needs to know how the peo@
pie feel. Washington needs to find out
that these are times when the people Will
disown any politician who is caught
making things easier for the voters back
home. with an idea of getting more votes.
The politicians have not discovered yet
that the people resent vote-gettlng favors
these days.
What the people want is leadership,
and knowledge that this leadership is
producing results.
What the people have been gwen Is
confusion, ignorance and half statements.
We do not need synthetic hypodermics
TO make us work. We need only the as
surance that what We are doing is neceS-
sary and that it will achieve results.
The confusion, the lethargy and the
lack of interest seemingly apparent
among the American public is the result
of Just one thing. We do not know what
is going on.
We've been at war seven months. With
every day that passes, the United Nations
position grows more critical. What Is
being done to relieve the crisis? We do
not know Is anything being done? Again
we do not know. What little we do know,
tends only to make our minds more con-
fused our outlook more uncertain, our
faith in the wisdom of our leaders weaker.

Mussolini's Fascist party is going
through a volcanic purge in which
more than $4,000 members already
have been dismissed and many
more are to go, Italy admitted to-
day.
Mussolini presided yesterday at
meeting of the national direc-

general secretary reported the dis
missal of the $4,000.
The dismissals were made on the
advice of provincial secretaries, who
evidently had been instructed weeks
before to comb their membership
lists.
1t had been known many Fas-
cists had been cheating by using
their offices to get quantities OF
food which they sold on the black
market and that occasionally one
of them, without proper influence
had been penalized.
