DISTRICT COUNCIL OF
DEFENSE
FOR BALTIMORE

April %, 1912.
Mr.. Joseph Pokorny
1851 E.. Madison st.
Baltimore, Md.
Dear Mr.. Pokorny:-
AS you know, President
Roosevelt has declared Sun
day, May II, 1912, as 81 AM
AN AMERICAN DAY., and
has called on all citizens to
participate in some kind of a
patriotic demonstration.
Mayor Jackson and Cover
nod O'Conor have also de-
clared May II, 1912, as 81 AM
AN AMERICAN DAY., and I
have been selected as Chair
man. Arrangements have been
made to stage a patriotic pa
Irade, starting at 300 P. NJ,
marching in and around the
horseshoe of the Stadium.
I am taking the liberty of
appointing you as Chairman of
the -Czechoslovakia
organizations with the hope
that you will be able to have a
big turnout in the parade. I
trust that you will appoint a
good committee to work with
you as Chairman. Also, you
will plesase designate someone
as Marshall of the Czechoslo-
vakia division in the parade
and ask them if they will at
tend the parade committee
meeting which will be held on
May 1, 1912, at the Press Club,
1874 w. Fayette St., at 500
P. M.
Knowing how deeply inter
ested the American Czechs are
in helping to win the war, I an
looking forward to a large
group to attend this very pa
ttriotic demonstration.
If there is any further infor-
nation you desire, please cal
me at SA ratoga SAL.
Yours in Victory,
Paul e. Burke,
Chairman.

COUNTING THE COST

One suggested remed%, said Reed
would be the creation OF a gov
ernment agency authorized to do
three things. Briefly:
/. To defray maintenance costs
during enforced shutdown.
2. To make loans to partially
closed plants unable to operate at
profitable level because OF ma
terial shortages during the war
and unable to obtain other finan-
cisl ass stance.
2. To make loans I'D to the fair
value of frozen inventories OF semi
Fabricated pasts that cannot be
assembled into finished products
without additional allocations of
or tical raw materials now needed
elsewhere for war production.
FStims ting that If such loans
and maintenance charges ran
rp to per cent Of the S4 bill
lion business which these $4,000
did in an average year, Reed
got the minimum figure of $3.50
million which would be the an
nusi cost of keeping these small
business firms alive till the war
is over.
The question is whether it is
worth that much to keep these
small businesses alive, or whether
the country should save that money,
let the small businesses go bank
rupt. and take a chance that they
would spring up again like desert
flowers in the spring
Imperial Valley press., 1942-06-19
CARRYING CONSIDERATION
MUCH TOO FAR

We're in favor of the utmost In conSld-
Grafton for the japanese in this country
who have been evacuated from their long
time homes in the western part of the
United States = particularly the west
coast-but we believe that the thing can
be carried too far. What's more, it seems
that it has teen carried too far.
Many of these japanese are loyal A
mericans, many are even citizens by right
of birth. They have already been penal
lied because we cannot be dead sure who
is and who is not loyal. We can make up
somewhat for this penalty by treating
them with courtesy and consideration.
Another reason they should have our
fairest treatment - an entirely selfish
reasons that Americans interned in
Japan will be treated similarly.
But depriving our own white residents
of the things they need to help win the
war in order to make life easier for the
evacuated japanese is another matter.
1t should not be tolerated for one in
stant.
The War Resettlement Authority, fed
eral agency set up to handle problems
incident to the evacuation, was guilty of
a serious indiscretion, in our estimation,
when it went into the market with federal
power and federal money to purchase
farm machinery or the japanese evac-
uees while white American farmers could
not use their own money to purchase
similar equipment for themselves.
Fortunately, the practice was stopped
this week in Arizona, and probably in
other areas to which the Japanese have
been evacuated 1t should never have
been started in the first place, and it
should not have been necessary for white
farmers to protest the policy before it
was discontinued.
There is no more reason for business
as usual in the evacuation centers than
there is in any white American communi-
ty The loyal Japanese-Americans real
ize that hardships are part Of their sacrl-
flee in this country's war effort; the
others do not deserve any consideration
whatsoever, anyway.
We don't say pour it on en- but
neither do we want to see them treated
with rank favoritism because of some
federal theorists sob-sister attitude to-
ward victims of circumstance What's
more, We believe the loyal Japanese
Americans-the only ones who deserve
anything at all-will agree with us. They
don't want pampering, and even if they
did, it should have no place in our deal
ings with them.

NO POSTWAR CRUSADE

1t is to be hoped that our government
is in accord with, and later on carries out,
the declaration of Secretary of Navy
Frank Knox recently that there will be
no attempt after this war to force our
own democratic system of government
on all the nations of the world.
Knox visioned the United Nations job
after the war rs ono of building up and
maintaining a stable economic system for
the world, and of establishing such
police force that aggrcssors can never
again get the start they got in this war.
Beyond that, he said, we should not go.
His sentiments have our hearty endorse
ment
1t would certainly not be democratic
to attempt to force the people of any
nation to live under form of govern
ment dictated by another nation, or group
of nations. Every people should have
the right to decide what their own form
of government will be. If we can assure
them that right, we will have done an
historic thing
Democracy is a thing of education,
not of legislation.
Imperial Valley press., 1942-06-19

One need not be an answering
follower of Senator George Norris
economic philosophy to sympathize
with that honest, belligerently
straightforward old war horse as
he sat in the United States SEN
ate the other day and listened to
the debate" on gasoline rationing.
On the merits of nationwide
rationing there is room for 'cgiti-
mate disagreement, unless one ac-
cepts the thesis that our rubber
situation is so serious that we must
ration gasoline to control the waste
of tires.
Even then, Senator Kilgore of
West Virginia made a pertinent
point that the proposed system for
rationing fuel to save tires permits
every motoriSt to do about go miles
a week of on-eSsential driving
Unfortunately the debate" wan
dered from such matters to what
many consider an unseemly display
oe vituperative demagogism directed
against the men notably Leon
Henderson who are trying to
handle a very difficult situation
with a minimum of errors.
To Senator Norris, as to many
outside of Congress, the air of the
Gentleman's Club grew unbearable.
Briefly, caustically and effectively
he said
1T is obvious to an onlooker who

S. Burton Heath
Writes:

listens to the statements of grave
and reverend senators that not
only is unanimity necessary, but it
is achieved in the Senate. The
Senate knows how to handle the
rubber situation: and the co-ordin-
ators, or whatever they may be
called, are all wrong.
1T is quite evident from the dis
cussion and the statements of
senators who know more about the
rubber situation that any of the
co-ordinators, that there ought to
be no regulation of gasoline which
would affect the use of rubber in
any waY.
I'VE can handle the situation.
That has been demonstrated in the
past hour and half. 1t was fur
thcr demonstrated by the great
speech made this afternoon by the
senator from Florida (Mr. Andrews)
in which he called attention to the
steel and iron in sight in the Sem
ator Chamber. He called attention
to 80 tons of iron, 85 or 80 tons of
steel, and the great quantity of
other metals. He called attention to
something that made chills run up
and down my spine. when he said
that if the facts should become
generally known we might all be
arrested for boarding steel right
here in the Senate.
That demonstrates that we know
how to regulate rubber and gasoline
and that we ought to do it. 1t has
been demonstrated that Sc senators
can do a much better job than can
one person who wants to be ty-
rant, dictator. or something else,
and set the pace for the whole
country.
1T seems to me that we have had
a demonstrat!on of how to settle
the whole thing; and I do not see
why we should not proceed to settle
it."
Nor do we,
