Each hour that we fight q

THE Senate bill he said
i 90. Would result in unjust and discriminatory
enrichment of Thousands of taxpayers IN THE UPPER
INCOME GROUP
The fact that THE UPPER GROUPS may pay JUST
AS MANY DOLLARS into the treasury in 1913 on
of their liability for 1913 does detraet from
their enrichment change the result that they would
have permanently escaped taxation on 1912 income.
But what about the Clover income groups who have
been diligently spared the burden of all federal income
taxes in the past until their 1912 incomes finally
taxed and who would also be relieved Of all taxation
their 1912 incomes under the Senate bill?
T THE same time the President conceded that under
n New Deal squandering and demagogy IN 10 YEARS
OF PEACE taxes on large incomes were made con-
fscatory that virtually nothing remains Of these in
for payment of war taxes
Tax rates for taxpayers in the upper income groups
are ALREADY SO HIGH" the President wrote, that
SUBSTANTIALLY ADDITIONAL TAXATION CANNOT
BE IMPOSED UPON THESE GROUPS"
The President also said
II cannot aCquesce i'm the elimination of a whole
years tax burden ON THE UPPER INCOME GROUPS

TO THE EDITOR:
On MAY 10 you stated that

Instead scientists tell us that
social behavior which may be
unique for a single people is de-
termined by their social environ
ment and social atmosphere.
When that environment is
lacking, the particular kind of
social behavior which it calls
out will also be lacking.
This is attested by the fact
that there are Japanese-Ameri-
cans who have shown and who

ment.
In view of these facts, too,
the statement of Mr.. +. T. Wood
man of the Pacific League that
all Japanese should be excluded
for all time from the United
States is particularly futile.
The NaztS have shown them
selves TO he treacherous, loyal
to their leader, and extremely
brutal.
We do not therefore maintain
that all Commandments be-
have IN the same way.

IN THIS war since our entering it. Mr.
i Roosevelt and Mr.. Churchill have together
or in cooperation made several such decisions
They have determined where imperial and
American troops shall be sent and concen-
trated for action, where they shall fight Of
fensvely and where they shall stand on the
defensive. Together we know they have made
distinction between war in Europe and war
in the Western Pacific and that their decision,
however arrived at, is for offensive war in
Europe against Germany and Italy and for
the present defensive war against Japan
In reaching this decision they decided that
the plan or war would be first TO defeat the
Axis foes in Europe, giving the battlefronts
there all possible advantage in numbers Of
troops, in the strength of the fleets and in the
supply of unlimited material of war.
That is, they have made these decisions.
and not left them to the military and naval
commanders. But without doubt they have
sought and weighed the counsel of the profess
sional heads of the military organizations.
IN THE second place, and this is very
i weighty responsibility, these civilian heads
Of their governments have selected the lead
ing generals and admiras and assigned them
to their commands
Inc reputation OF q war minister IL usually
made or lost on the insight and the indie
pendence with which he chooses these leaders
on land and sea. The great war minister Of
England the first Pitt won by the choice Of
officers commanding the British forces in
North America and India and the admirals
who headed the British fleets.
The war reputation Of another British war
minister rests upon the tenacity with which
he supported Arthur Wellesley, the Duke of
Wellington The war success Of President
Lincoln was determined by his discovery Of
Gen. Grant and the unvarying support that
he gave this great soldier. Frequently such
support has to be maintained in the face of
criticism.
The military leaders once chosen, civilian
heads should labor indefatigaby to support
them with the troops and material Of war
which they demand

defeat as we'll as victory; they should resist

10 induce the British 10 put a
formidable army in against
Japan on the Burma line. They
also wanted TO draw out Off

The truth is the plan would
