''None But the Lonely Heart"

1t was stated in the Monday press that
veteran Russian soldiers wept when they
viewed the destruction of Kiev, Mother
c. Russian Cities. AS they watched their
burning city it is said they were aroused
to fury to see its destruction by German
troops, before eventually liberated.
The famed cathedral city is regarded
by every Russian peasant as their famous
ore-time religious capital, even though
Soviet regime has diSsipated some of that
feeling. No doubt there was many lone
ly heart as the historic city was engulfed
ir flames. AS one reads of this devasta-
ton of Kiev, Tschaikowsky's poignant
song, None But the Lonely Heart" comes
t. mind and its Sorrowful strains suggest
the sorrow of many Russians who watched
the destruction. 1t so happens that the
fiftieth anniversary of the death of
TSchaikowSky, great Russian composer,
was November 6.
Kiev in the Province of Ukraine has an
area of 1866 square miles. 1t was an
important ecclesiastical center, christian
ity introduced there by st. Vladimir in
the tenth century The famed Cathedral
Of st. Sophia goes back to the eleventh
century. Perhaps when Russia energies
from the chaos of recent years She will
once again appreciate the christian back
ground of such cities as Kiev whose burn
ing brought tears to The eyes of Russians
in these past few days.

Exit Small Business

A big businessman, Robert R. Watson,
sees little hope for the survival of small
business after the war. Crisis comes to
small business, he says in recent article,
when it attempts to emerge from one
man business and become an organization.
And to survive, these organizations must
be built larger, he believes.
Here are his reasons: "In the pre-war
years the small manager found it impos-
sible to employ and pay for Social Secur-
ity accounting, unemployment tax &C
counting, a labor relations department,
an increased purchasing department,
QUESTIONABLE re-answering department,
and compete with organizations already
large enough to afford these new require
ments forced upon business by Washing
ton bureaucracy"
How about curtailing Washington
bookkeeping instead of expanding bust
ness, did you say? Don't be naive, brother.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1943-11-09
Let's Get Going

Accusations of "Stalling" and apathy
have been made against the majority
party in the House of Representatives by
Is Republican members They charge
that the party in power is holding back
legislation with the intention of railroad
ing 1t through, without sufficient debate,
in the year-end rush. And they have
banded together with the declared inten-
ton of eliminating lot of one-and two
day receSSeS, cutting the holiday recess
short, and taking what other steps they
can to speed up actio, on pending meas
ureS. Without arguing the truth of these
accusations it can scarcely be claimed by
anyone that the House has many con-
structive accomplishments to its credit in
the six weeks since its long-due summer
recess ended. Committees have been
active, to be sure. But not much has
come off the final assembly end of the
legislative production line
The Republican group lists four SUBJ
jects on which it believes quick action
should be forthcoming. They are the food
subsidy question; crude oil production
as it affects gasoline and fuel rationing;
more careful investigation of appropri-
alton requests by government agencies;
and the opening of judicial channels
through which citizens may appeal ANY
bureaucratic directive or regulation" This
choice of four Is marked, quite naturally,
by partisan emphasis. Perhaps the choice
does not include all the questions that
need settling or even the most important
ores. But at least these four are current
ly causing violent agitation in the turmoil
over domestic war policy. 1t is turmoil
which constantly stirs Washington, and
which reflects or infects the temper of
the whole country The subsidy problem
is one that ought to be settled quickly.
Until Congress decides whether it will
continue the life of the Commodity Credit
Corporation, farmers cannot plan with
any confidence for their 1914 task of pro-
ducing the greatest food supply in our
history. The President made an i'm
p-essive appeal for the present subsidy
operation in his message to Congress. But
it only increased activity of the stable
opposition group in both parties. Much
CT this opposition is not to the principle
of subsidies, but to the present applica-
ton. The problem is not insoluble, and
it ought to be threshed out with no more
delay.
Equally necessary to domestic tranquil
ity is settlement of the long and bitter
quarrel over government by directive.
Congress and the agencies, particularly
OPA, are constantly at each others
Threats over broad interpretations of the
war powers granted the President by Con-
gress. Limitations and better interpreta-
tons won't be arrived at quickly or easily,
but they are now scarcely beyond the
fussing and Tuning stage. These are not
only the causes of domestic contention, OF
course. But If even in these we could APP
proach the governments unanimity OF
feeling on foreign policy, the war might
be moved toward its conclusion a little
faster.

For SIS a Month

Some $4,000 residents in public war
housing projects in California are par
ticipating in statewide prepaid medi-
cal care program run by the physicians
themselves.
The charge is $3.50 month for a sin
gle person, 81 for couple, SIS for fam
lily of three or more. This covers all
medical and surgical care, hoSpitaliza-
ton and nursing, X-ray, laboratory and
specialized services.
Some perhaps will call this Socializa-
ton of medicine. Apparently the phySi-
clans who are participating do not. Sim
liar ventures, both in medical treatment
and disqualification, are working well
elsewhere The pattern seems worth
using, particularly at time when doc
tors are almost as scarce as the proven

The Waterbury Democrat., 1943-11-09
Worth Remembering

Through official propaganda in the
shape of speeches by publics officials,
2glnted statements from government
Saareaus and departments, and by gov
@nment sponsored films, American citi-
xens have been led to believe that the
governments socialized electric power
plants have given this nation something
indispensable TO our war effort
For the past ten years, the Federal
power program has TO the extent 1t was
developed, retarted the normal expansion
OF many privately financed electric plants
such as were built In this country for the
preceding fifty years But here Is
factual pin with which to prick the bal
loon OF those who lead the people to be-
lieve that goyernment-oWned power
plants saved the day for war industries.
How Is 1t that nowhere in the country
has a war industry been hampered for
lack OF power, even though there was no
government power plant within hundreds
OF miles OF II? How is 1t that the most
active industrial sections In the United
States, not served by government plants,
have been able to secure all the power
they needed2 And how Is 1t that there
has been no rationing OF electric power,
even to private citizens anywhere In the
country?
In spite OF all the ballyhoo about gov
eminent ownership OF power plants, the
private electric industry, In the face OF
tax subsidized tax exempt, government
competition, Is furnishing some 85 per
cent OF the nations power for war indus
tries, as well as private citizens. AS a
matter OF fact, our war effort would he
absolutely paralyzed without the nations
highly taxed private electric industry.

KNIFE OUT FOR WILLKIE
Oil-man-GOP boss Joe Pew Of

is the story behind former Repub-
lican National Chairman John D.
M. Hamilton's political tour of the

Pew hasn't yet selected candi-
date of his own, according to
COP insiders, although he is in

one burning ambition Is to destroy
Willkie. Hamilton, close friend
of the oil baron and law associate

chats with Capital politicos before
leaving on his tour.
He didn't have to reveal that
Pew has hand in the trip; this
was taken for granted. But he

STATES EXECUTIVE MANSION
PUT IN BEST CONDITION NOW
New Haven Journal Courier

NNtW ldFcH JOuIlhl-Noullct|
When the new mansion for Con-
necticut's governor was bought last
summer, Governor Baldwin recon-
mended that only simple repairs to
make the place haibitable be COM
pleted at this time. However, the
State Finance Advisory Committee,
which is supervising the project,
has decided that the future home of
the states first families ought to be
put in top condition Immediately,
Hence the sum of $4,000 has been
appropriated in addition to the Or
iginal $4,000 to cover all costs of
purchase, furnishings and repairs.
This is a sensible move, for the
usual story of improvements tenn
porarily delayed Is that they become
permanently delayed, Further, the
money is now available, and q

This has brought into the open
an unfortunate row between dis
tinguished, invalid President Que
zon and popular Vice President
Osmena. On Nov. Is, the Philip
pine Constitution provides, Vice
President Osmena shall succeed
Quezon as president. But Quezon
doesn't want to step down, has
hired Homer Cummings, appoint
ed Governor General of the Philip
pines before he became attorney
general to lead his case.
The rivalry, smOuldering ever
since QuezOn failed to take his
cabinet out of Manila, choosing
personal staff of servants and
doctors instead, has now flared
out in the Philippine-American
newspapers.
Filipinos in this country point
to the unfortunate fact that be-
cause Quezon's cabinet was left
behind, the members have been
forced by the Japs to constitute
the Jap puppet cabinet in Man.
liza. Quezon was allowed by Gen.
Macarthur to take 80 people with
him from Manila to Corregidor,
and Filipinos in this country
claim that If he had taken out the
cabinet instead of his servants and
personal aides, things might have
been different.
Vice President Osmena had to
appeal to Gen. Macarthur per-
sonally in order to be included in
the party.
Back of the dispute is the fact
that Quezon originally was elect
ed for one term of six years on
a platform pledging no second
term. When the first term ex-
pired in 1910, the constitution was
changed to add two more years,
with a proviso that no President
would serve more than eight years.
The eight years is up next week.
In the l94l elections, Quezon
got 80 per cent of the vote, but
Vice President Osema got 81 per
cent. Osmena is especially pOpu-
lar In the southern Islands,
where he lives, the area where
presumably any landing to retake
the Philippines must be made.

STATE POLICEWOMEN
(Hartford TimeS)

(Hartford TlmeS)
Addition of IL policewomen to the
personnel of the State Police. to
deal with the increasing number OF
cases of juvenile delinquency, seems
to be justified by the need.
There is no doubt that the con-
ditions which have followed top
speed operation of war plants have
produced many problems that can
be handled best by policewomen.
The additional members OF the
State Police will cooperate with
local police departments, probation
officers and juvenile courts. Not be-
ing in uniform, these officers will
be able to do their work without at
tracing attention. They will be, in
effect, detectives assigned to the
task of preventing delinquency
whenever possible, and of dealing
with 1t when they find it. Money
spent in preventing crime usually
is money that safeguards the people
from heavier future expense.
