developed from a labor era. an

TO HE EDITOR:
NOV that at long last the
~ indecency which required
rationing boards to refuse gaso-
line TO soldiers, home on fur
Tough, has been changed, thanks
to the publicity which the news
papers of the country have
given the matter, there are
other unnecessarily barbarous
regulations that demand at
tention.
The prohibition against fur
nishing gasoline for funerals
and visiting sick relatives, are
in a class that would be eX-
pected of a Hitler or Stain. AS
long as Ickes permits unlimited
transportation of every char
acter TO public gads from Seat
tie TO Maine and Fl. Worth,
claims of necessity naturally
are discounted, no matter what
statistic" may issue in support
OF apparent need.
Members of local rationing
boards as well as responsible
persons in state Offices who are
close 10 the public have been
among those who have been
urging that America continue
TO function, in this and other
matters. as America, and not
like Germany or Russia. In
fact. il is probably true that
more credit for the just regula-
tionS which will issue is due 10
these local officials than the
public will ever know, but il
should also be recognized that
no effort on their part will he

F air Enough
Bv WeStbrOOk PegIer

NEW YORK, May 81 think
~ I mishandled an idea re-
Gently in imputinG the hypo-
thetical 1S-year-old American
draftee named Joe Doakes Jr.,
the cynicism, dishonesty and
subtlety, as distinguished from
frankness, which has character
lied the only government of
their nation that the 1S-year-
olds of today ever have known.
True. Joe Doakes Jr. and the
rest of his generation would be
a sorry lot of little blatherskites
if they had derived their ethics
and principles only from their
national government during the
10 years since they were S'years
old, but the saving fact is that
the influences Of the American
home. the church and the school
and the innate decency of the
breed have enabled them TO re-
sist the evils Of governmental
example.
In writing of the DoakeS kid I
did not believe he had been so
contaminated but intended only
10 suggest what a dreadful new
generation of Americans we
would have just now in this 49,
year-old group if American chill
dren actually did model them
selves after the statesmen and
bosses. the government of their
time. as, fortunately for them
and their nation. they do not.
7 BELIEVE that unlike their
Il government, they reject the
proposition that a gang of crimi-
nal politicians of Jersey City
have a legal right to practice
highway robbery on truckmen
passing through.
Even the Supreme Court has
held that Congress deliberately
and with knowing intent con-
ferred that right upon them as
a legitimate activity of union
labor.
For there is no legal definition
of a labor union and any gang
of five or more may call itself
a union and under the Supreme
Courts Interpretation OF congress
sional intent, may rob with
official approval.
If trick and subterfuge as
practiced in the case Of the
captive coal mines were COM
mon conduct among this younger
generation there would he
neither discipline nor honesty in
the army and no man would
trust anOther'S word
The fine character Of the
fighting services is proof enough
that not only 1S-year-olds but
their elders have held them
selves 10 a code of conduct and
morals higher than that by
which they are governed from
above.
THE boys and girls Of this
Il generation during their grow
ing years saw big men use the
power Of government 10 whip
their political enemies in the
manner of the meanest little
war politicians, saw an attempt
10 pack the courts and could not
fail TO observe that the re-
formist attitude Of Harold ICkes
was but a gaudy pose when he
huddled with Frank Hague and
Ed Kelly of Chicago whom he
had denounced with loathing, 10
put over the third term and
keep himself in luxurious power
in Washington.
They saw high office exploited
for money and. recently, in the
handling of the manpower prob
lem have noted the tricky
method in use again whereby a
law enacted for one purpose is
twisted 10 obtain results which
Congress never anticipated and
did not mean 10 authorize.

MY REFLECTIONS Of the
4N1 Doakes kid were touched
off by the remark Of a mother
with a son 13 years old who
said that the New Deal was
the only government the boy
ever had known and that in the
event of a fourth term he would
come 10 fighting age ignorant OF
any other kind of government or
political morals.
However, the boy lives in
decent home where he has been
taught honesty and straightfor-
wardness and he looks TO day
when like his two older brothers,
he will be captain in the army.
The two brothers also grew up
through an important phase of
their young life under the New
Deal but il did not make them
cynical or evasive and when the
call came both dropped their
careers TO fight for the United
States.
My apologies 10 the Doakes
kid and 10 his family and all the
Doakeses everywhere.

Alexandra Street
Improvement Planned

The Alexandria City Council was
informed last night that the State
Highway Department plans to in
stall a sidewalk on the north side
OF Duke street extended. between
Roberts lane and Quaker lane.
At the request of highway officials,
the council agreed to acquire the
right Of way and to take care of
necessary retaining walls and drain
age requirements
At the same time. the council
voted to ask the Highway Depart =
ment to include completion of the
east fork of the Y intersection at
Quaker lane and Duke street with
the sidewalk project.
Traffic has been seriously hamp-
cred by the fact that the west side
Of the Y intersection which falls
in Fairfax County was completed
by the State some time ago, leaving
the Alexandria side of the inter-
section in barely passable condition,
causing serious traffic hazard.
The only other action taken by
the council before an executive SEES
sion for discussion of the 1914 bud
get was to grant the application Of
Mrs. Robert M. Reese to rezone SIT
Cameron street from CT to CO resi-
dental zone to permit conversion
into apartments by the Federal Gov
eminent. and to advertise and set
for hearing at the first December
meeting the application of Mrs Car
oline r. Butler to rezone 1920 Duke
street from CT to ca for the
same purpose
