attention wholly upon this titanic
conflict and the activities directly
linked Herewith.
Certainly, one cannot listen to the
portentous words of Mr.. Roosevelt
and Mr.. Churchill and fail to feel that
nothing which can contribute any.
thing at all to winning the war must
be withheld. Nor can any American
sorrowed by the news from the Phil.
ippines, fail to hope with his whole
heart for the day, when, as the
British Prime Minister predicts, we
shall teach the japanese a lessor
which they and the world will never
forget.
Nevertheless, few reflective persons
will contend that absorption in this
great purpose should be coupled with
complete indifference to what is hap.
pening to the normal machinery OF
the Government. Nor can it be sue
cessfully argued that such indiffer-
ence promotes our war aims. Quite
the reverse. This war is a test of ma.
tional strength. While we bend oul
energies to making ourselves strong
in the air, on land and on the sea, oul
cause is not furthered by permitting
the ordinary governmental agencies
to bog down and decay. 1t is not the
part of patriotism to ignore such
tendencies and it is no disfavor to the
President to call attention to them
Clearly, it is no greater tax upon his
time and energy to appoint gooC
man than to appoint a poor one. II
requires little more effort to keep the
governmental service up than to let
it run down. But the latter course
weakens us while at war and most
assuredly will plague us very badly
when peace comes. Discerning mer

that complete absence of public COM

nation and no help to Mr.. Roosevelt

the most glazing is the plight of the

ing down hill. In the opinion of some
it is pretty close to the bottom now
Chiefly, this is due to the eXtraordi-
nary lack of stability at the head. The
worth of such a commission as this
depends almost entirely upon its
chairman. The SEC has had five
chairmen in seven years. Last week
it lost its latest, who had served
hardly a year.

The swirl and tumult of wartime
| Washington have pushed twelve non
defense agencies, or parts of agencies,
out of the city. Following a Presi-
Dental order, over 10000 Govern
ment employees will have moved out
of the Capitol within two months.
With the influx of defense workers at
the rate of 1900 week, Washington
has all the appearances of a boom
town.
The additional space is welcomed
by administrators who are hard
pressed to find living quarters for in
coming Federal workers and office
space for new defense agencies.
Among the larger agencies moving
out of Washington are the Patent Of
flee and the Securities and Exchange
Commission. The Patent Office with
1900 of its employees makes it's new
home in Richmond, Va. The SEC,
with its 400 employees, will operate
from Philadelphia.
What effect, if any, this mass
exodus will have as a decentralizing
factor in executive control over the
agencies affected is a subject of
speculation here.

In his appointment of Mr.. Eicher as
its fifth and last chairman-appar-
emily the President also accepted the
temporary character of the position.
At that time the statement was made
that Mr. Eicher who had been an
ardent New Deal Congressman from
Iowa, really wanted to be Federal

Judge at first opportunity, Denied at
was one of the friends of Tommy
Corcoran, then a prime White House
favorite and now one of the most
energetic of the defense lobbyists.
Cooperating with Mr., Corcoran, Mr..
Eicher opposed the denomination of
Senator Gillette, who was slated as
one of the first victims of the Presi-
dental purge of 1888. Senator Gill
cite, however, was successful, and
Mr.. Eicher was put on the SEC in
obvious recognition of his political
services.
1853
He became chairman when Mr..
Frank was made a Judge And now
he has been made a Judge, and the
craftsmanship is again vacant. 1t isn't
pretty story-the way this SEC
Craftsmanship has been batted around
from one man to another. The hope is
that the President this time will name
man not only qualified to serve and
who has no notion of using the job as
a ladder but who is not named as a
reward for past political services.
Concentration on the problems of the
war is no reason the normal govern
mental machinery should be allowed
to deteriorate. That does not help win
the war abroad; that just weakens us
at home.

In either event, two things are
clear-first, that these continuous
changes in the head of the board have
impaired its usefulness and lessened
confidence in its competency; second,
the quality of the chairmen, to put it
mildly, has not improved with the
changes. Actually, the speed with
which they have changed establishes
a record. So swiftly have they fol-
lowed one another that anything like
a sustained and connected policy has
been impossible. The fact is that the
SEC Craftsmanship has come now to
be looked upon as temporary job in
which no one stays very long. That
is unfortunate for the commission and
unfortunate for those who have to do
business with it.

The Department of Labor has
issued a ruling that employers may
pay their employees all overtime in
defense savings bonds and stamps.
While employees cannot waive their
right to overtime, under the terms of
the Fair Labor Standards Act, the
ruling declared, ''they may agree with
their employers to accept their over
time compensation in defense bonds or
similar Government securities"
This ruling applies, of course, only
to those businesses over which the
Federal Government has supervisory
control. 1t is not unlikely, however,
that many local businesses will adopt
similar policy in al effort to CO.
operate Nth the Government.
