Good Will Wooden Leg

College football squads for generations
have heard the eXhortation to Give a leg
for dear old SiWash" Some of them have
come pretty close to doing it. Many a
sacrifice has similarly been laid on the
altar of international goodwill, but until
now the exhortation to give leg has
been confined to roWdier fields. Now, how
ever, it has been proposed to send back
to Mexico the wooden leg of Santa Anna,
Mexican general who left it behind in a
battle near Vera Cruz, Whereupon some
American soldiers brought it home.
Return of this intimate little souvenir,
it is felt, would be a gesture which Mex
leo would deeply appreciate, though the
museum which now holds the trophy is
reluctant to part with it. How Mexico
feels about this we haven't heard, but it
seems numbering approach to goodwill.

A Thought for Today
And What of Russia?

This is ticklish subject, but it is a
subjects that needs dealing with. Unpleas-
ant to think about, it is easier to gloss
over than to look squarely in the face 1t
must be faced. One hears it said, and
more often suggested slyly than said
outright, that the thing to do is to fight
Japan and let the European war stew on
in its own Juice in the hope that Germany
and Russia will yet exhaust one another
in no-decision bout. Many of those who
were most ardent isolationistS before the
war now swing toward some such view.
1t is based on the idea that a Com
munist Russia too triumphant over Ger
many will turn the whole continent Of
Europe to Communism and from that
vantage point Communize the world.
Quite bluntly let us say, ut could hap
pen" There are no sure things in war,
greatest of all CANDLES. The results OF
war can never be accurately foreseen.
However, the results of losing are SO
plain, SO terrible and so imminent that
there can be no doubt about them We
know what imposition by military force
of Hitlerism means. Balancing that all
tOO-definite menace against some possible
later outcome leaves only one decision.
The war, in its total phases, must be sup

victory including every possible assist
ance to Soviet Russia. The choice be-
tween present certain evil and posi-
Bile future evil is simple one.
1t is an odd thing that the same people
who assume that Britain and the United
States face sweeping social changes as
result of the war also assume that Russia
will emerge unchanged. 1t seems I'M
likely Already Stain seems to have
called off the anti-religious campaign Tor
the duration, and it may never be revived.
Men returning from war usually de-
mand greater freedom than before, and
Russia is just as likely to move toward
democracy as the demOcracies are to
move toward Communism. In Russia,
Communism has already passed through
three systems in which all changed but
the name. The war may well bring on
fourth There is no reason to assume
that Russia will be exempt from the gen.
eral expectation that no country will be
quite the same.
It is because we have faith in our Amer
lean institutions that we fight to uphold
them against military aggression. We
must have faith that we can uphold them
equally against whatever condition (and
no one can guess what it will be- may
arise in the wars aftermath. Right now,
our guiding star in the war effort must
be this: Any holding out, any reserva-
tons, in the united drive for victory IS
terribly likely to result in universal dis
aster for all.

Crack Down Here

Everywhere similar tactics should be
adopted by law enforcement officials
towards prosecution of persons accused
and convicted OF theft of automobile
tires, gasoline, etc. At best this is
sneaky business, but right now it
amounts to even more than that, what
with tires very precious possession and
gasoline likely to be rationed. Down IN
New Haven the other day Police Chief
Philip T. Smith issued a warning about
tire thefts.
Not only will the police be vigilant and
swift to pick up offenders, but speedy
conviction in the courts is assured. This
warning came right after report of
second break at an Elm City tire store.
It's Just about the same all through the
country with a few individuals convinced
that here is their golden opportunity to
engage in a bit Of war profiteering. How
shortsighted they are will best be demon
strated by the courts.
The best way to discourage such theftS
is to make examples of those caught in or
after the act. And judging by what the
courts are already doing with such cul-
pritS tire thefts will soon be thing of
the past But there can't bo a let-up in
vigilance on the part of authorities. And
at the same time car owners ought to do
all they can to protect their cars from
tire lOoting. Don't leave them in I'M
protected spots for long periods of time.

Roads to Victory

In all the blizzard of bucks that is be-
ing blown into the war effort, it is hard
to find 20 million of them that will be
used any more profitably than the 20
Just advanced to five Central American
countries to finish the road to Panama.
These countries, already closely tied to
U. S. economy will be all the more so
when overland communication is possible.
The ability to truck supplies and equip
ment to the Panama Canal might save
that artery in some emergency when sea
communication should be interrupted.
It's hard to see how we can lose on this
one.
And now how about the road to Alaska?
The same considerations apply, and they
may be even more urgent, perhaps sooner
than we expect. Should the japanese
offensive in the South Pacific succeed,
what more natural than for them to turn
on Alaska with most of their fleet and
huge landing force. A road to Alaska
might turn the tide.

criticism of the plan. We don't know if
those who spoke against it from this city
were delegated as such by the local as
ISOLATION, but certainly they must have
expressed much more than majority
opinion And we doubt very much if it was
any different in other communities where
there are well-organized Bar associations.
Bar associations, like medical and other
professional associations have flourished
in the past through the very fact that
they have not compelled membership,
albeit welcoming it.
We like the concluding argument of
The Times edtor-"It will take good
deal of argument to convince people
generally that lawyers ought to be re-
quired to join a society in order to earn
and retain the privilege of practicing."
The legal profession in the United States
has always been distinguished by individ-
ual brilliance. Such should continue to be
its best reward.

A Bar Union

The Hartford Times believes that the
proposal for an ''integrated State Bar"
is more or less a step toward unionization
of all lawyers. 1t questions whether or not
this would prove generally satisfactory or
whether members of the profession would
care to be tied down by rules and regu-
lations that smack more or less of regi-
mentation Admitting that the general
purpose OF the plan, which is the better
ment of the profession and its member
ship, is highly commendable The Times
wonders if it would or could be achieved
in the manner prescribed.
Certainly representatives OF the Water
bury Bar were outspoken in their

Here's what an ex-mayor plans to do
with his time in the near future. EX-
mayor George A. Quigley OF New Britain
who holds some sort OF record over there
for length OF time in office is entering a
defense production factory in New Britain
shortly. His business is real estate, but
he's giving it up in favor of factory en-
ployment Wehre he can help out the coun-
try in it's battle against foreign aggres-
sion. MI. Quigley has served twelve years
as MAYOR of New Britain and for long
time was regarded as one of the strongest
of party sectional leaders. Oddly enough
his terms in office were not consecutive.
