Editorials and Comment
WE SPENT YEARS
FINDING OUT NOTHING

Joseph c. Grew, former ambassador
to Hirohito said Friday that the Japs
have this objective:
First to bomb important American
centers and then, eventually, invade
America.
1t is what they hope to do, intend to
do. and will do if they can" he said.
Grew. who knows japanese and Ger
mans equally we'll, rated the former as
the most dangerous enemy of America,
and called the Japanese the most hard-
to-beat soldiers, with military machlne
built up over years of intensive effort
into one of the worlds best.
On the same day Richard c. Wilson,
manager of the former United Press
bureau in Manila, who was lnterned oy
the Japanese during the siege of Hong
Kong. told New Englanders that the
Japanese will prove the toughest oppon-
ent the United States has ever faced on
the battlefield
Events since Pearl Harbor seem to bear
out pretty thoroughly the observations
of Mr.. Grew and Mr.. Wilson,
In way, it is too bad that they do.
We cannot help remembering various
magazine articles we read before Pearl
Harbor. at least one of them by we'll
known admiral, which purported to show
how the United States would blast Japan
out of the ocean in something like SIX
months if the Nipponese were foolish
enough to risk war with this country.
We know that military and naval OF
ficers in this country gave the definite
impression, before Pearl Harbor, that
they considered the Japs a weak poten.
tial enemy, who could be disposed OF, II
war came, in very short while. Natur-
ally, the impression seeped down from
our military and naval leaders to the
public as a whole. Everybody underrated
the Japs, and the undertaking began at
the top.
Yet Mr.. Grew must have known before
the war started how potentially danger
Gus the Japs were So must others have

the admirals and generals, or in Washing

CAESAR PILES IT en-
(Marysville Appeal-Democra)

James Caesar Petrillo, whose middle
name may have given him deluslons OF
grandeur, has issued two more important
edicts. One of them withdrawS the priv
ilege of broadcasting from a group of
student musicians who have been on the
networks for the past eight years. The
other prohibits the recording OF music
for one-time reproduction.
Petrillo. as head of the American Fed
Grafton of Musicians, is trying to dictate
to the public just what music 1t may and
NAV not hear A few weeks ago he crack
ed down on an established network broad
cast by high school musicians. About the
same time he issued his now famous ukase
that no union musicians could record their
work for radio or any other public enter
tainment purpose. At that time he made
an exception of recordings for one-time
use, which is simply convenience to the
orchestras and radio stations in program
building His present order is prompted
solely by revenge because OF protests at
his original action.
Some of these days it is going to be
determined whether Petrillo can thwart
the desires of the American public IN the
field of entertainment. Not only has the
government started a suit against him
under the anti-monOpoly statutes, but
congress has launched an inquiry that
NAV restore Petrillo to his real stature.
A Gallup poll shows that an overwhelm-
ing majority of the people resent his ar
rOpance.

SINGLE TRACK MINDS
CAN LOSE A WAR

The government official, or ranking
service officer who gets fixed idea and
refuses to change it in spite Of all warn
ings that he is wrong, is liability to his
country The men who had the idea that
the Japs didn't amount to anything, and
did not heed evidence to the contrary,
placed the United States in grave danger.
If that attitude continues, in the same
matter or in others, victory will be an
accident for us, and not the result OF
wise leadership.
We have seen a number of evidences
that some of our pre-war service lead
ers must have been pretty we'll bogSed
down in love of their own ancient theor-
les Our lack of completely modern air
force arrangements was one proof. Our
failure to achieve immediate unity OF
command was another. Our sloWness to
adopt complete mechanization was still
another.
Where the blame rests, we do not know,
except that it lies in our national failure
to place in high positions men with the
ability to forget tradition and blaze new
pathways in military procedure. We
had allowed red tape and outmoded ideas
to mire us so thoroughly that it is only
now-almost a year after the outbreak
of war-that we are getting in stride
with the times And we've still a few
changes that must be made

AFRAID OF THE
ELECTORATE
(Salinas Californian


1t is an insult. slanderous insult
when our selected officials dare not do
things necessary to win this war, for
fear the voters might punish them at the
polls.
They think, perhaps, that the public
is not intelligent enough to understand
the compelling logic of those facts which
have convinced Washington.
Fearing monster of its own creation
AN ignorant or a vindictive electorate
official Washington prefers to take no
chances.
Lets wait until after election, is the
attitude. Lets try inoffenSive stopgaps
first. One might work
Meanwhile we are losing the war.
Meanwhile we are piling up lntlatlonary
forces that soon may become uncontrol-
liable. Meanwhile we are burning up If
replaceable rubber. Meanwhile our pro-
crastinatiOn is preparing to cost the llVeS
of thousands of our young men VINO
should not have to die.
Washington believes that those who
work for a living are so selfish that they
will not do their part to win this war and
to preserve the American way OF life.
Washington believes that the farmers
are so selfish that they will not accept
the hardships that are necessary to WIN
this war and preserve the American way
of life.
Washington fears that the nations mo-
torists are so selfish that they will not
give up ioyriding to help win this war.
Such fears insult every mothers son
of us. We should resent Washingtons
attitude and more of us do resent 1t than
Washington yet realizes. The electorate
must hold Washington to account.

Fragments ripped through the
cockpit and scratched Beamans
knee. The cockpit filled with
smoke. Hughes and Stone tossed
the controls back and forth be-
tween them as the blind spots in
the smoke filled cockpit shifted, and
thus we're able to juggle the plane
