Approaching Our Ally
Cincinnati Enquirer

Cincinnati Enqurer)
 It is small thing that the anniversary of Hit ers invasion of Russia is be observed in the United States Governors of at least ten states and the Mayors of thirty cities have proclaimed June g of this year an Aid To Russia" Day. It is dedi- cated to tribute to the courage of the Russian Ar my and people and as special occasion for mobil- izing aid to those people,
 It is important that this celebration should be than lip service. Over and above everything else it should be convincing to allies that we do not regard them mere convenience which, by a fortunate circumstance finds them involved in a death struggle with Hitlers Nazis and the German general staff. We owe it to them well as to our selves to understand them.
 One of the most insdious forms of pr. Goebbels' mplantaton surely the poisonous whisper set in motion just after the German attack that capitalist countries might rejoice at this method of killing off so many Communists! Some day shall be glad for the courage and honesty of Joseph E. Davies our former Ambassador to the Soviet Union.
 It was he who warned of the Nazi trap to have us view Russia with contempt doubt. and suspicion and of the wedge which they seek to drive between the Allies
 As capitalist himself and industrialist Davies could appreciate and advise Russias great mechan istic program. He in position to interpret and to forecast the USSR position in good faith after last June 22 for his government and to pass this on to the people of the United States in that most remarkable of books Mission to Moscow. This silenced much of the carpng doubt and suspicion so adroitly set in motion by the sixth column in Amer- ca simply because he widely known as an in dvidualist and Christian Also he was able to docu- ment his case with State Department material It is brief submitted by one of the best legal and in clstrial minds of the United States.
 The remarkable sale of this report of our former Ambassador, nearly half million copies, is surely some indication that well-nformed people in this country do appreciate our ally and will not content themselves with the poisonous phrase Let Joe do it

synthetic rubber program is con- trolled by ''inimical private inter- ests," anxious to avert competition after the war.
 His statement followed closed door meeting of an Investigating committee, headed by the Iowa Senator, at which it was revealed that the mysterious advisory com- mittee" which assists Jesse Jones in directing synthetic rubber pro- duction is composed chiefly of of ficials of the big rubber companies and Standard Oil
 For weeks Gillette tried to find out who was on this committee, but was unable to get any definite information. The only name Gillette could definitely establish was that of E. R. Weidlein, $1-a-year man on leave from the Mellon Institute.
 But Gillette now has the full list of this secret braintrust. It was re- vealed at the closed door meeting by Paul E. Hadlick, the committees able counsel. How Hadlick got the list is his secret, but committee members gasped when he read these names:
 R. P. Dinsmore of Goodyear Tire and Rubber; P. K. Frolich of the Standard Oil Development Con- pany; J. N. Street of Firestone Rub- Der: w. A. Gibbons of U. s. Rub- Der; J. H. Boyd of Hi-Car Chemical Company, and w. L. Semon of B. F. Goodrich Company.

 HEART AND HOME: Many im- posing city houses and country 1 estates will be turned over to pub lie uses.

Children should be carefully guarded against re- Election of nervous conditions com mon among older folk. In view of what seems to be the future here | in the United States during war restrictions, it is well to take what ever pleasures are possible. BUSINESS AFFAIRS: Closer trade relations with the countries of South America will be stimu lating to many lines of business. Prosperity for wage earners will bring profits to merchants. The cost of living will rise and victory gardens will be helpful to many families. Agriculture on the Pacific coast will undergo many difficulties because of the scarcity of field hands but production of foodStuffs will be prolific owing to the aid of farmerettes.
 NATIONAL ISSUES: Transporta- tion is to be a problem to many workers in shops and factories des- pite the increase of public con- veyances. Bicycles will solve certain problems but changes of residence will be numerous in the Fall Ap- preach of cold weather will cause necessary provision for thousands who are occupying temporary quart CTS. Heat and light are to be lux urieS in future months when the conservation of power and electri- city becomes imperative. Present conditions will become much worse INTERNATIONAL AFFAIR RepriSals for successful bombings of Axis holdings will cause serious damage to civilians in widely sep arated regions as the war becomes each week more intense and the United Nations stronger.

WHEN SERVICE COUNTS

Members of the six troops of the Boy Scouts of America last week threw their welcome support be- hind the current rubber salvage campaign, doing their part in earmarkng another page in the history of for service by the Scouts
 Today there are approximately 1,750,000 Scouts in America in some 51 900 units. When that number of the nations organized boyhood takes job the results are astounding
 In the recent aluminium drive, 12oooOo0 pounds of the vital metal collected throughout the nation The Scouts turned in io50O00O of that total Later they collected some 300 pounds of waste paper
 In the last war there serious shortage of black walnut wood for manufacturing airplane pro- pellors. The Scouts found more of the trees.
 Today the Scouts participating in a nation wide treasure hunt for rubber The Japs have 97 percent Of all of the of crude rubber for merly used by the United States. The other three percent came from sources at home. We may be able get about 10000 tons of synthetic rubber here annually when the plants start rolling But even in peacetime, 100000 tons of rubber year used by Americans.
 So if Boy Scout knocks your door and asks you to take second look for old rubber, cooperate with him. Remember:
 A 35000-ton battleship needs 1500o pounds of rubber; a and half ton army truck, 446 pounds; lotion pontoon bridge, 3644 pounds; light tank 489 pounds, and heavy bomber tire 100 pounds.
 The rubber salvage drive ends on June 30

GEN. MACARTHUR

Popular young Senator Josh Lee will never forget his first encounter with Gen. Douglas MacArthur, in which the Army hero proved him. self, then as now, a man of dy- mamie action. It happened in 1885 while MacArthur was Chief of Staff and Lee was a rookie Representa- tive from Oklahoma.
 Lee walked into the House one day while Congressman Vito Mar cantonio, New York left-winger, was assailing the ROTC in colleges. Lee didn't like it. He was fresh from the campus of the University of Oklahoma, which has one of the finest ROTC units in the country.
 So Lee let go with counter blast which almost blew Marcan- tonic off his feet. One of the most interested readers of the Congress- ional Record next day was General MacArthur Several days later Lee telephone MacArthur about a problem. The telephone conversa- tion went like this:
 Lee: Hello, General Macarthur, this is Congressman Josh Lee of Oklahoma. I'd like to ask a favor of you"
 MacArthur: MT. Congressman it will be pleasure to do you favor. If it is within our power, you'll have it. You are a real friend of the U. s. Army"
 Lee: Thanks, General. This is what I have on my mind. I'd like to have Riff Jones transferred from the University of Louisiana to the University of Oklahoma to coach football. He's an Army man, and you can do it."
 MacArthur: Yes, sir, I can and it will be done"
 Lee: Thank you, General"
 MacArthur: "It's a pleasure. MT Congressman"
 And 1t was done immediately

And another thing on which I think we can agree is the principle of a fair profit-a fair profit for labor and for industry You people can't collect dues from sick in dustry, and you also have union profits of your own to protect. And along that line, I don't think that labor wants a communist system any more than industry.
 I've been in Russia and Ger many" continued Johnston, "and under those systems labor gets a much shorter end of the deal than management. Management still is driving the circus wagons over there, even though different names are printed on the wagons. Work men can't change from one job to another"
 Green and Murray also concurred heartily on this point.
 Result of the conversation was an agreement to get together from time to time to discuss common problems. Johnston said quite frankly he could not speak for the entire membership of the U. S. Chamber, and would have to do some missionary work to sell them on all of his labor ideas. However. he said he was convinced that the
