LhtoRg Kai-shek

-'F 1900 CSeN
We cannot omit from any discus
sion of these meetings what Amer
lea achieved when she brought
Chang Kai-shek into the picture. The
Chinese believe in America. They
think we have decent ideals. But
they assayed us as a still more or
less kindly, Indifferent people who,
without much thought, would dance
to the British tune. And Britain they
distrusted.
They know now that America had
the breadth of view and the acumen
Ito use that word again in its best
sense-to bring China into the higher
councils of the Allies. 1t was Hull
who insisted that China become a
co-signatory of the formation agree
ment at Moscow. 1t was America,
Hull, Observation-Disclosures you wish
to credit for the act-who brought
Chang into the Cairo conference.
Strangely enough, America. near
er to Europe by the racial ties of a
great part of its citizenry, is even
closer to Europe's culture than the
residents of the tight little British
Isles themselves. Yet Americas ig-
norance of Europe's real needs and
thoughts is vast compared to that
of England's statesmen. But Amer
lea does seem to understand the Far
East, can sympathize with it, and
once America assumes the position
to which her mighty power gives her
the right, she can be the real in
terpreter between the East and the
West. And lacking an interpreter,
the East can only become a great
potential enemy. protagonist of ra-
cial hatreds and racial wars.
America won her spurs at Moscow
and TeheTan, all we can ask is the
support of the people so that she
can wear them with the honor she
loves, with the power she has.

Shipyards To Close Sundays

The Maritime Commission has ordered all ship
yards to close down every Sunday beginning January
1st although the shpbuding goal for next year is
about five per cent larger than the 889OOO0 tons for
1943
Admiral Howard l.. Vickery, deputy chairman OF the
commission, says that the country is over the hump
in shipbuding. He points out that some yards have
been working days week, with absenteesm
higher Sundays and that generally the men could
not work at peak efficiency the seventh day. He
does not think that the holiday will necessarily mean
reduction in output.

BY BAUKHAGE
NeIos analyst and Commentator.

WNU Service, Union Trust Building,
Washington, d. C.
The flag is flying over the White
House again, real symbol, no long
er ruse de guerre. After the past
few weeks, it is a relief to know it
really means that the President is
there-not an attempt to hide his
absence from the enemy
Already the nervous bulletins, an
nouncing the forbidden truths or the
invented canards as to the where
abouts of the Allied leaders, are for
gotten in the more instant interest
in the happenings on the battle fronts
ON the home front.
Washington has had time to pom
der on Americas new leadership in
world affairs. Perhaps that toast Of
fered by Premier Stain to American
war production without which, he
said, the war could not have been
won by the Allies, brought the truth
home. America is emerging out of
this holocaust as the worlds great
est power.
And for the first time in history,
the worlds greatest power is the
nation whose people are least pre-
pared. least experienced, least anx-
ious for world leadership. There is
a chance that we may let it 60 by de-
fault.
Washington has assayed pretty
well by this time the fruits of the
Moscow conference, the Cairo con-
ference with Chang Kai-shek attend
ing; the Teheran meeting; the meet
ing with Turkeys president.
Russio's NeD Role
The achievement, first and fore
most, unless we read all the signs
a-wrong. is that Russia energies in
a new role. AS Secretary Hull firm
ly believes, the fate Of the world de-
Ponds now on Russia and the United
States.
Until the Moscow conference with
tne Ieneran meeting to put its seal
upon 1t, Russia was still an interna-
tional enigma. She was fighting
the same enemy that we were in
Europe. But she was in no sense
an ally.
Today she is still fighting the same
enemy in Europe but is allied with
US.
Those are the main fruits of the
Moscow and Teheran conferences.
We are not a nation of diplomats.
England has the wisdom Of the ages
inherited from an intimacy with the
chancelleries Of Europe since the
days Of Metternich. Today she has,
at the head of her government, one

Postwar Naval Police

A postwar naval police force, supplied mainly by
the United States and Great Britain, is suggested by
Secretary of the Navy Frank Knox as the backbone
of an effective peace control.
Mr. Knox describes the present working arrange
ment between the navies of the two nations, which
assigns the British the eastern Atlantic the Mediter
ranean and the Indian Ocean, The United States guards
the western Atlantic and the entire Pacific When ships
of either nation pass into control of the other
they pass into the command of the controlling navy.

1t is noted that than 1000 four-engined bomb
ers were included in the $3.50 airpanes turned out in
November when completed aircraft rolled off production
lines at the rate of one every five minutes.
An idea of the job being done along this line is
given by Donald NJ Nelson, who says that the total
weight of airpanes including spare parts produced in
November was 81 100000 pounds. This compares with
100000 pounds in July 1910.

1 tered with the U. s. Employment Service for var jobs by April 1.
 In announcing tho new policy, WING stated four principles for as- sistance of men affected by the or. der:
 l. Work in listed fon-essential activities will not only afford no defermeut status but Is relatively insecure because of the increRgtng curtailment of such activities re- sulting from the needs of war in- dustries. ,.-.. 3. As in all other eases, the worker should advise his local board of any change Of address or status.
 3. Every worker affected should consult with the U. s. Employment Service offlce for employment in Q war Job or for information aS to training which will At him for such Q job.
 1. Workers must not 60 to crowded war centerS unless the Service has arranged definite job for them.
 Reconsideration of the status of all registrants known to be in the designated non n-essentiAl jobs or iia- dustries will be started by draft boards April l.
 McNutt said that all cases must be considered with common sense and the following grounds will be considered reasonable excuses for temporary idleness or for being erl- gagged in Q non-deSerrable activity: 1. Sickness of registrant or in his immediate family.
 9. Physical disqualif ifcatienS.
 3. Reasonable vacation. {. Compelling circumstances that would not permit the change of employment without undue hard- ship to the registrant or his de- pendents.
