Check Initiation, Keep Democracy
THE President has always said imitation
i would be disastrous.

THE President has always said imitation
would be disastrous.
And the only reason imitation remains
a menace today is that the President and
the Congress together, with equal sharing
of responsibility and fault, have persisted
in piecemeal prevention.
Of course, Mr.. Roosevelt is right that
wage and farm price sterilization is
necessary.
BUT 1T HAS NOT JUST NOW BE
COME NECESSARY.
1t has been necessary ever since infla-
ton became threat, and nothing hitherto
attempted in the way Of preventing infa-
ton has had a chance of success with
out it.
The President now tells agriculture
that he cannot in justice hold wages down
while permitting food prices to soar
But AGRICULTURE HAS BEEN
TELLING HIM ALL ALONG THAT
FOOD PRICES COULD NOT BE HELD
DOWN WHILE PERMITTING WAGES
TO SOAR.
So now there seems to be at last a
meeting of minds on essential things
or at least on essential methods.
And of course that should have been
accomplished sooner, and would have OBJ
waited the necessity of doing now what
might better have been done in the be-
ginning.
There will be resentment and criticism
of course of the manner in which the
President has presented the issue
Detroit evening times. (Detroit, Mich) 1921-1958, 1942-09-10

He has not merely served an ultimatum
on Congress, but has set a deadline for
compliance.
He has almost patronizingly and be-
nevolently said he is giving democratic
processes an opportunity to function
within a fixed time limit-after which he
will do what he thinks necessary, under
powers he assumes to have.
Inevitably this will be called dictator
ship-AND III Is DICTATORSHIP.
But since what Congress is asked to do
is the right thing to do, and is necessary,
there should be no hesitation about
doing it,
Initiation, as the President says, would
enormously increase the cost Of the war
and would impair the fruits Of victory and
might preclude victory altogether.
Therefore, there must not be initiation.
And in order to safeguard against
imitation, the inadequate controls previ-
ously attempted must be made adequate.
Naturally. it is desirable to have this done
democratically, by Congress. 1t is not
desirable to have it done arbitrarily and
automatically by the President-even
though he promises that the powers under
which he would do it would revert to the
people after the war.
The important thing for Americans
today and for all Americans in the future
is to have democracy work now to have
1t work effectively and promptly, and to
have it thus retain the faith and con-
fidence of the people.

WASHINGTON. Sept. 10.--The
w smart Marshal Rommel got
his nose caught in his own tank
treads at FL Himeimat. He was
outwitted by new adaptation
Of an old trick he played on us.
The drive he started at the
southern tip of that 31-mile
British line was the opening
maneuver of a full scale often
sive. He marshaled one-third of
his entire force against what he
thought was the weakest point
of the British line, at least it
was farthest from the shore rail-
road, and without any direct
road back to the Alexandria
base.
With skill he pushed his tanks
through eight miles of British
mine fields that lay out in front
of their defensive positions, like
a protective explosive apron.
Mines, of course, are not visible
to the eye, and the British could
not plant them as thick as car
rots, foot apart, but they had
the field securely sprinkled.
THE trick by which Rommel
Il got through. was to spray all
suspected spots with artillery
and gunfire TO explode the mines.
and his tanks thereupon coasted
safely over the pock-marked
territory.
This brought him up against
the Allied defense line. intact
and ready for battle. He found
the line was not a series of
trenches, but the usual defensive
positions in depth. with machine
gun pill boxes and artillery posi-
tions-much artillery, more than
he had seen before.
Rommel had brought along
his magnificent SS nm. guns.
the big mobile cannon, which
served him so effectively against
our tanks in Auchinloss near
disaster at Rezegh, before the
fall of Tobruk.
Our General Grants and the
British tanks were supposed TO
come out TO do battle with his
tanks in another open field con-
fiict of the mechanical masto-
dons. whereupon Rommel would
again unleash his SIS and make
scrap metal of them.
The British need only one les
son. They kept their tanks safe
inside their lines this time. In
stead, they leveled their artil-
lery at the German tanks, and
called up dive bombers. as well
as fast fighting pursuit planes
(hard to hit) carrying small
bombs. These went after the
NaZi tanks with great fury. in
excellent clear weather. "a sand
storm hindered operations only
the first day.
DOMMEL persisted in his po-
~ sition for several days. but
he never got into the British

lines. Wendell Willkie (who put
more past the Egyptian censors
than the correspondence says
100 of Rommels 270 first-line
tanks were crushed and ruined.
General Alexand der then
switched his bombers -te-the
NaZi lines of gasoline supplies,
which rambled far back through
the desert. After these had been
pounded for several days, and
much German gasoline de-
stroyed, Rommel was forced to
retire, because of a shortage of
fuel. Berlin explained away his
misadventure as reconnaissance
in force"
There can be no doubt from
the size of the force, and the
way Rommel used il. that this
was a big drive to break the
British lines. 1t was the opening
of a major offensive Chat did not
fully materialize, because the
first move failed.
And it failed, not only because
we had more bombing power
than his limited plane force
could cope with Hitler drew in
practically everything in the air
for the Russian drive), but be-
cause General Alexander fought
his superior airpower with skill
matching Rommels generalship.
THIS should keep Mister Rom
i mel quiet for an indefinite
period. He will probably need
more. tanks and gasoline before
starting anything very impor-
tant.
On the other hand. his losses
may not have been sufficient TO
encourage the British to launch
an offensive, especially as they
now occupy a short compact bat
tie position, better than the
desert in front of them offers
Rommel, and with excellent
short roads back TO their base.
At any rate, you can score the
latest fight on the Libyan front
as a major defeat of the Nazis.
WHILE you have your pencil
w out, score an error for me.
Down in this column, the terse.
strong, fact-packed communique

The thyroid gland is located
