Writes:

olf written Constitution any person
who considers himself aggrieved by
Congress, by the executive or by
any other citizen, has excess to the
courts for redress CT his grievance.
But Director Byrnes, himself un-
til recently a justice of the supreme
court, summarily attempts to eXer-
else this long established right of
the citizen.
With the Presidents expressed
approval, Mr. Byrnes has decreed
that the War Labor Board and the
Treasury Department, each in it's
sphere under this executive law,
shall have 'finall Jurisdiction
which shall not be subject to re-
view by the Tax Court cf the Unit
ed States or by any court in any
civil proceedings"
So an executive order, in direct
contravention of the explicit de-
cision of the peoples Congress, is
specifically exempted from review
in the courts.
Our salary is net $4,000 year.
We personally are not aggrieVed in
any financial sense If we were
we should be inclined to challenge
any executive order forbidding us
access to the courts.

MR. MeNUTTS UKASE

(ChrlStlan Science MonltOr)
Manpower Commissioner McNutt has
taken step which may be only the first
of many at tangent from ordinary
democratic paths. In freezing" labor
on dairy, livestock, and poultry farms, he
first defers such workers from military
service, then forbids them to change jobs
on pain of being drafted. What is meant
by saying the Department of Agriculture
will act toward stabilizing wages" of
these farm hands does not appear, but
substantial increases must be forthcom-
ing if justice is to be done them. Merely
forcing labor to stay on the job will not
solve the problem.
The War ManpOWer Commission on one
other occasion forbade employees of
Western mines and logging camps to
change jobs These workers were granted
wage increases. But still much dissatis
faction was expressed. In the present
case, Mr. McNutt has obtained the coop
Grafton of all the various agencies inVOlV-
ed. The agreement is a victory for him
and Donald Nelson, WPB chief.
If the present plan-the result Of the
immediate needs of Eastern SeabOard cit
ies-is successful, the American man
power chief may apply it to other types
of farms, including those raising fruits,
grain, and vegetables. No great labor
unions will enter their protests against
the farm order, as was the case with the
miners and loggers in the West. Event
ually it may become necessary to freeze"
all necessary labor, including Eastern
coal miners, fishermen, and those in
transportation Mr.. McNutt can be as
sured of the support of the public in these
extraordinary but very necessary meas
ureS.

But even in Congress the ex-sol-

SHOULD ROOSEVELT
TAKE OVER THE WAR?
lOroville Mercury-Register)

tOroVllle Mercury-ReglSter)
President Roosevelt is being criticized
because he allows Winston Churchill
to run the war" That criticism comes
from Josef Stain and from a host of
lesser lights 1t springs mostly from
those who don't like the way Winston is
directing matters, of course. But it comes
also from Americans who want to see the
American soldier directed from the top
down by American brains, and who be-
lieve that the British generals thus far
in the war have been fighting defensive
battles in retreat most of the time.
AS long as we have inferior forces on
the allied fronts we can expect to play
second fiddle in the commands. 1t isn't
in the cards for nation with 100000
men in the fight to take control away
from the nation with 100000 men in it.
We are in that position everywhere-that
is where we are cooperating with the
British
If there is to be a second front in Eu-
rope, troops of the British Empire will
outnum6er ours two or three to one. We
cannot ask them to allow an upstart in
the war to take command 1t would not
be reasonable.
On the other hand, the Presidents voice
in this war ought to be rather loud. Amer
lea is feeding Britain and supplying Brit
ain with material. Britain would have
been whipped by now but for us. SO it
seems reasonable that Roosevelt ought
to be able to speak up on any subject he
chooses. He may be diffedent about the
India subject, and he may feel that it is
not his part to hurry second front, par
ticuarly when there is no assurance it
would be successful.
We think the critics who say Roosevelt
should take control of the war out of
Churchilrs hands will tone down when
they consider all the factors. Anyway,
it is possible that Churchill's hands are
more capable. In our more or less pri-
vate war to the west we have yet to
achieve a great victory.

Word comes back from the front
and is avidly taken up for repeti
ton in some circles that when this
war is over and soldiers return
home, they're going to see to it that
things are different.
To anyone whose memory goes
back to the last war that chant has
a familiar ring In the last war,
too, soldiers sat around their bot
ties Of vim rouge and talker freely
of how, when they got back home,
things would be different.
Things were different, too, just
as things will be different after
this war is over. But what part
of the difference can be attrib-
uted directly TO the influence of
returned and demobilized soldiers
is worth moments notice. If
the constructive contribution of
ex-sOldiers to the state and the
nation after the last war is any
criterion, it may give clew as
to what the veterans of this war
will be able to offer, and what
they'll be able to get.
This statement may be challang-
ed, but when you add everything
Up, the principal contribution of
the veterans of the last war to bet
tering their country has amounted
to seeing that the veterans of the
last war are well taken care of.
Before you start throwing things
at that, stop and think.
The formation of a veterans par
ty as a political organization could
never be realized because an Army
and Navy are made UP of men
from both the major parties and
the issues they have to back are
not of such transcendent import
ance that they override the plat
forms of Republicans and Demo-
Gratis.
The vets of the last war could
not even unite in one big organi-
zation to provote veterans affairs.
There is the American Legion with
a membership of a million. and the
Veterans of Foreign Wars with a
membership CT a quarter million.
and several minor outfits besides.
But no one big union Further
more, the membership of all these
organizations takes in less than
one man out Of three who wore the
uniform from 1917 to 1919.
NO POLITICS RULE
! The Constitution of the Legion
Imperial Valley press., 1942-11-05

Well. the automobile workers
have got their distribUtion-of-
wealth law. Congress spurned the
idea and refused flately to say that
no person under any circumstances
shall receive more than $4,000 sal
ary a year. Nevertheless, we have
the law
1t may be that such a provision
is iustifiable in time of total war.
1t may be that nobody ever ought
to receive a salary in excess Of
S25,0o0 a year. We do not believe
so. and we do not know any rea-
sonablely competent economists who
think Sc.
However, the intent and the ef-
feet of this ipse diXit law, this
American version order in coun-
cil," are much less important than
the manner in which it was
achieved
Notwithstanding everything, the
United States still is a representa-
tive democracy, functioning under
constitution which provides that
laws shall be enacted by popularly
elected representatives of the vot-
erc.
The Automobile Workers union
originally proposed the $25,000 top
limit on salaries. The idea was
presented to Congress, and was. re-
jected overwhelmingly.
Whereupon, in the guise of an
anti-inflation measure, the limita-
ton was imposed by Economic Ad-
ministratcr Byrnes under specific
orders from the President. So
what Congress refused and the pub
lie did not demand, is law.
Moreover, this order in council
was carried a step further. Under

Editorials and Comment
EQUATIONS IN
GAS RATtONING

Imperial Valleys place in this gas
rationing scheme becomes a sort of simple
equation in algebra.
Bearing in mind that national officials
in charge of rationing policies have recog-
nzed the additional need of western COM
munitieS to more generous gas ratonS,
and have promised that Los Angeles, San
Francisco and other large western COM
munities will receive far consideration,
the situation develops into an easily un-
derstood statement.
Imperial Valley is to Los Angeles what
Los Angeles is to New \ York in the matter
of transportation needs.
The rationing boards, and those who
issue rationing cards, should bear this IN
mind. 1t should be impressed thoroughly
upon the minds of the upstate officials
who are liable through lack of under
standing, to place us in a practically un-
tenable situation.
The west-and by the west" our ma
tional officials meant the big communl-
ties of the western part OF the nation
has not nearly the public transportation
facilities that are available in the crowd
ed areas of the east Thus man in Los
Angeles cannot do as his counterpart in
New York can do, and take an interurban
train almost from his doorstep to his job
He must ride good part Of the way by
automobile.
Yet there are trains and Streetcars in
Los Angeles, and they can be reached by
walking or driving a few blocks, or
couple of miles. Therein comes the COM
parison with Imperial Valley. We, here,
need as much extra consideration over
the people of Los Angeles as the people
of Los Angeles need over the people of
New York.
Not only have we no streetcars what
soever, but we do not even have train
service adequate to meet our transporta-
tion needs out of the valley
When the people in Los Angeles move
from one place to another in their COM
munity, nine times out of ten they can
move by streetcar or train
When the people of Imperial Valley
move from one place to another in their
community, they either go by automobile,
or they walk.
1t is vital to the continued existence
of this community that these facts be
presented to the proper officials-and
that before it is too late.

Macarthur

General Douglas Macarthur is not let
ting politics nor politicians stop him-but
undoubtedly they are using their power
to hinder him. They have him penned
up in Australia, with his command eX-
tending very little beyond the borders of
that continent. They intend, seemingly,
that if he fights at all he shall fight
purel- defensive war-because he cannot
command the necessary auXiliaries to
move beyond very limited sphere.
Yet Macarthur has done job, in spite
of the politicians, which proves that he is
not purely defensive fighter. 1t was
his planes and pilots which had great
deal to do with chasing the Jap navy
away from the Solomons. 1t was the ad-
vance of his men in New Guinea which
began to worry the Japs, for fear Mac
Arthur would improve his positions to
such an extent that his air arm-the only
far-reaching arm left to him, could carry
them still farther
Macarthur has demonstrated his great
ness in attack as we'll as in defense. 1t is
high time the United Nations made use
of his ability to the fullest extent, with
out harboring future fears generated by
his popularity.
