To do so will mean trip across the

there is rule that boys from other

Unwise Anonymity

The announcement that Roy
Reuther, former Committee for In
dustrial Organization union official,
has been released from the Army to
resume job in the labor division
of the War Production Board has
been cloaked in too much anonym-
ity for the public good.
An anonymous spokesman for
Wendell Lund, labor production di-
rector of the WPB, made the dis
closure. 1t seems that Mr.. Reuther,
who was drafted several months ago,
was released from the Army recently
with the approval of the adjutant
generals Office and at the request
OF Mr.. Lund. The reason assigned
was the Importance of his work in
morale and labor union contracts.
Another anonymous spokesman,
this time for the selective service,
said the War Department had re-
quested selective service approval
of the release, but that draft officials
had neither approved nor disap-
proved it.
This state of affairs raises several
questions which remain unanswered
by these anonymous statements.
One Is whether the presumably in
dispensable character of Mr.. Reu-
theirs work was set forth by Mr..
Lund at the time the former was in
process of being drafted, and, if so,
what disposition was made of that
appeal. Another question obviously
concerns the nature of Mr. Reuther's
work-just what it is that he does
to sustain morale and facilitate the
negotiation of labor union contracts
which justifles resort to the extraor-
dinary procedure of securing his re-
lease from the Army after he had
been drafted. Was there no labor
leader above draft age available for
the performance of these duties?
1t is true, of course, that draft
officials have no control over the
disposition of a case once the man
In question is in the Army. But good
public morale rests on the belief
that the selective service system
Is strictly impartial, all the way
down the line The facts in Mr..
Reuther's case may justify the
action taken, but in the absence of
an adequate explanation, and in
view of the exceptional circum-
stances surrounding it, there are apt
to be doubts in the minds of many
people. For the good of everybody
concerned, it is to be hoped that a
full accounting of this incident will
be forthcoming from some RESPONSE
BILE official, and that in giving it he
will not resort to the generally dubi-
Gus device of anonymity.

"I have no lawful right to do this"

THIS AND THAT
By Charles Z. TrncetreH.

His notes were just enough fiat to
throw off the entire tune.
Had he been heard by himself, he
would not have sounded nearly as bad,
especially to a listener who was not
thoroughly acquainted with wood thrush
music.
Off-key, we are convinced, is some
thing most music lovers know little
about.
They seem to be so fully occupied with
the music that they do not hear the
notes which are not as they should be.
Musicians can tell you differently.
A musician no matter what his IN
strument, knows every time he strikes
one that is not exactly right.
He goes right ahead, however There
is nothing else for him to do! He knows
that not one listener out of thousand
will have detected it,
This is easily seen in phonograph re-
cords. There is scarcely one of them
which does not have few sour notes
mostly made in the recording, as the
fault of the process, somewhere along
the line.
These sour notes are often heard at
the very end of a recording. Yet in our
experience, not one listener in thousands
detects them. Sometimes an entire rec
ord side is off-key. We have repeatedly
called the attention of listeners to such
sides. Only to be rewarded with blank
stare. They actually do not know what
you are talking about. To them, there
is no difference between such side and
one which Is perfectly recorded
They are fortunate and so, no doubt,
are those who never hear any false
notes among the bird songs
1t Is much more difficult to detect
them in the mocking bird or catbird S
songs. These are graceful, flowing af-
fairs with many grace notes, runs and
so on, in which note tumbles after note
so rapidly that only the best ear can
catch any wrong ones.
Debussy said that the music Of the
future was the music of the Orient.
This prediction seems rather slow
coming true, but it is easy to understand
what Debussy meant.
In Oriental music they have half.
quarter, eighth and even less intervals,
one note sliding into another.
Often Hindu songs will seem off-key,
but they are not, they are Just right
for Hindu songs. The Occidental ear is
not used to them, that Is ALL After lis
tening to such music for time, the
western ear becomes attuned to it. and
Is satisfied with 1t. We do not believe,
however that 1t in any way displaces our
own music and feel that it Is much
better so. 1t is not necessary for oriental
music to be the music of the future
| What makes all music great is that
each Is, in its way, perfect representa-
tion of its makers.
Bird music Is natures music, In a
peculiar sense. The off-key notes oil
some bird, now and then. are "off" only
in regard to our own strict standards

sings as sweetly as any OF her other chill

seen by visitors to the site. The prop
erty was sold to Captain John Au-
gust Sutter in 1841, and he removed
its guns and other equipment to the
neighborhood of the present city of
Sacramento. Meanwhile, the Russian
government asserted territorial
rights as far down the coast as 81
degrees north latitude. The most
important result of that pretension
was the Monroe Doctrine, set forth
in a message to Congress dated De-
cember 2, 1923, whereby it was es-
tablished that the United States
would not tolerate the further Euro
pean colonization of the Western
Hemisphere. Kuskov, however, never
heard the news which spelled frus-
tration for his ambitions. He had
returned to Totma and died there in
October, 1923.

Russians in California

Today is the 130th anniversary of
the Russian settlement of California.
1t was on September 10, 1872, that
Ivan AlekSandrovich Kuskov raised
the standard of the Muscovite czars
at Fort Ross, so miles north of the
modern metropolis of San Francisco.
Not even his name is known to the
generality of Americans, yet the man
himself deserved to be remembered.
He was person well qualified for
the work he attempted to do Most
of his short life was spent in the
service of ideal ends. He visioned
vast colonial development and con-
tributed of his own natural genius
to the realization of his dream.
Born at Totma in the province of
Vologda in 1765, Kuskov at % left
for Siberia "to find happiness" In
1890 he joined forces with Alexander
Andreevich Baranov, then newly ap-
pointed resident director of the
Russian outposts in Alaska But,
unlike his chief, he was concerned
principally with empire building"
One OF his projects was the town
later called Sitka. founded by him
in 1904. The problem of obtaining
food for Indian hunters engaged in
the quest for furs prompted him to
move south. 1t had been fear of the
Russians which led the Spaniards to
occupy California in 1869, but no
resistance was offered by the Spanish
authorities when Kuskoy appeared
in their domain.
The nine years that he spent at
Fort Ross we're devoted to construc-
tive activity. Kuskov organized a
shipyard, put together three large
ships and a number of smaller YES
sells, experimental with farming and
cattle breeding, operated a consid-
cradle trade in otter peltS and alto
gether justified his hopes for success
in terms of profits RENTED to st.
Petersburg 1t is true that he expert
enced trouble with the natives and
with rival pioneers and on several
occasions narrowly escaped assassi-
nation, but his stalWart character
sustained him, and all his dangers
were shared by his wife, Ekaterina
Prokhorovna, who journeyed from
ustug by way of India to marry him

reaching into every community. It
is incumbent upon those responsible
to see that the regulations are ap-
piled fairly and impartially, for they
can affect the economy of the
country too deeply to permit of dis
elimination in their administration.
The order is aimed primarily at
tire conservation, but another effect
will be to put gasoline rationing for
commercial vehicles on a Nation
wide basis, as carriers will be able to
obtain fuel only when holding
operating certificates. 1t extends
further the measure of control
already exercised by the ODT over
motor vehicles by authorizing the
organization to designate the service
any carrier is to perform. Earlier
restrictions imposed on commercial
and private freight and passenger
carriers to save mileage have proved
valuable, according to Joseph B.
Eastman, head of the ODT, but
more are necessary.
The new program will curb many
operations for which there is public
need, even though they may not fan
within the limits prescribed by the
ODT, and If it is to be justified as
a tire conservation measure, it adds
greatly to the force of arguments
for general application of gasoline
rationing to private cars to prevent
needless waste of tires in pleasure
driving.

Says People Themselves
Are Taking Steps.

To the Editor Of The Star:
have just listened to the Presidents
"fireside chat" and have concluded that
neither the President nor the Congress
of the United States now is carrying the
ball.
1t would seem from comments on all
sides that the people have waited over
long for the necessary steps in all things
pertaining to this war and our own eco
nomic front at home and have decided to
take their own steps in the direction
they think best.
And any and m lsst-mmurs moves
by the executive branch or legislative
branch will not deter them from their
Judgment, and their judgment will be
based on past performance of all public
oflcials. E PLURIBUS UNUM.
