NEA staff correspondent


LONDON - Until recently
ell Raj bombers on their way
10 the continent have avoided
flying over the capital. Now
there has been a char &c and the
people of London for the first
time are able to see the bomb
ers going out. It's usually just
after dusk when the leading
planes reach the city. Soon the
following planes have literally
filled the skies. They seem
hardly TO be moving as they
cross endlessly over the city,
climbing slowly towards opera
tional altitude TIE vibrations
from their massed motors shake
every building below.
Often il takes more than an
hour for them to pass. Even
When il has grown too dark TO
see the planes themselves, you
can watch their progress by their
wing lights which are not
switched off until somewhere
farther along.
To an American, watching
from London's b c k do t
streets. there's something both
reassuring and terrifying in see
ing them go, knowing that in
Just a few hours their bombs
will be screaming down on 9TH
er blacked-out cities only few
hundreds miles away.
To Londoners there is only a
feeling Of grim satisfaction and
the thrill of a seat on the edge
of battle. London remembers
the nights three years ago when
there were other masSed planes
in the skies overhead. And so
do the crews OF these bombers.
And they salute this city which
took so much. Pickering their

The blank check days are over.
In prior Congress, the Admins

the temper of this session has been
correctly judged.

MUCH TALK ABOUT CURTAILMENT


question whether anyone will
seriously try.
In the first place, the tremen-
douS amount of government hir-
ing about which there has been
so much talk is mostly replace
ment.
For example, Harry B. Mitchell,
president of the Civil Service
Commission, in outlining the in
creased work of his department,
said: During the six months end
ing January, 1941, the commission
found about 100000 persons for
the war and navy departments;
and during the last six months of
1912, we made slightly over a mil
lion requirements in these depart
mentS. That does not mean a mil
lion new jobs as the turnover in
these days iSslarge."
In the second place, civil SER
vice employees have given such an
account of themselves in all major
crises that any criticism of them
would be showed under.
To cite one instance, James B.
Burns, president of the American
Federation of Government EN-
ployes, recently put on the record
quotes from a lately published
book, Public Plumber" by David
10th. According to Mr.. 10th, in
come tax figures showed that
World War I produced $4,000 new
millionaires, but not one of them
was a permanent (or civil service)
enlploye of the government.
3 Sum it up for yourself. Anyone
who has been around Washington
will tell you that there are seat
warmers and brass-hats whose
heads are too big for their haloes.
They're right, but until better
system is devised than civil SER
vice, it will have to do. And good
many members of Congress think
it's so good that they are trying to
extend it - not curtail it nor find
something new.

CRy AssOetated Pressl

It's going to take a political
maestro to evoke harmony from
, the Democratic party organ in
this session of Congress. q,
In the minds of veteran obser-
vers, that was the clear implica-
ton of the intramural warfare in
! the pre-withdrawal battle over
confirmation of Ed Flynn as min
ister to Australia. The separate
components of the Democratic
party are out of tune.
Press polls of the Senate indi-
Gated Flynn would have been re-
jected as the result of Democratic
detection. Behind that fact are
interesting angles that point to
definite trends in the current
Congress.
First, 1888 purge chickens are
coming home to rooSt. The Presi
dents ill-starred attempt to erase
New Deal diSsidentS in that cleo
ton rankles. 1t didn't make so
! much difference in the 1889 and
| 1941 sessions. The Democratic
majority was so wide the handful
of purge-designates could not
make their weight count, but they
may well constitute the balance
of power in this Senate. They
haven't forgotten 1888, as indicat-
ed by the Flynn poll.
South On Warpath
Second, Southern Democrats are
on the warpath. They argue with
some logic that they are the hard
core of the party. In lean years,
they make all the party yardage
in Capitol Hill scrimmageS. They
openly aver that big city Demo-
, cratic machines and New Deal
: latecomers to the party fold are
+ getting a disproportionate share of
party power.
When Boss Crump of Memphis,
Tenn, publicly deserted the Flynn
cause it was a tipoff. The week
before, Dixie Democrats in the
House torpedoed Administration
plans to seat Rep. Vito Marcan-
tonic (AL-N.Y.) on the Judiciary
Committee. The Southern bloc is
determined to force concessions
from the Administration With the
Democratic majority narrowed to
a thin line in both houses, they've
got the tickets to make their de-
: mandS stick. Crump's detection is
the first public revolt of power
| full southern Democratic organlza-
ton against the will of the party
chief.
Third, the solid Republican line
up against Flynn is clear notice
that Minority Leader Charles Nc
Nary, the astute Oregon veteran,
has his cohorts under disciplined
| control. They're ready to throw a
| unified punch whenever the Ad-
ministration leaves an opening.
These factors carry the makings
of political Donnybrook. Never

HOLLYWOOD, Feb. l0.-For
anyone with soothing doubts that
the motion picture industry is
essential, / recommend an evening
watching how Herr Hitler and
gang have used the celluloid
medium to foster their own poll
teal designs - first to conquer the
German home front then in an eff
effort to win the symapthies of
the conquered peoples and arouse
hatred for England.
Such an evening will smack
you right between the eyes, be-
sides, as an example of what can
happen when the powerful med
ium of the films is controlled and
put to corrupt use by state-an
argument for all times and all
countries for the necessity of a
free screen.
John Abbott, director of the
Museum of Modern Art Film Lii
brary, has arranged and edited a
group of German propaganda
issued between 1894 and 1941, and
these had special showings here.
When the Goebbels outfit seized
on pictures as a force for Nazi-
fying Germany after Hitler'S ac-
cession, they didn't play around
with halfway measures. One OF
their first productions was '"Tri-
umph of the Will" a 14-reel pic
ture devoted entirely to the NaZi
party convention in Nuremburg
in 1884. Seeing the film makes you
wonder whether the cameras were
incidental to- the convention, or
the convention was there for the
cameras. It was staged like thea
trical spectacle, with marching
thousands, torchlight parades, gil
gantic sets, all kinds of emotional
pageantry with Hitler the
kindly, beneficent saviour of
Germany always the hero, and
such gentle hero as to make you
reich. The German people appar-
emily swallowed the poison whole
don't we see their happy, costa
tic faces as they cheer?
The German account of the in
vasion of Poland is another gem,
You see with your own eyes how
the noble Germans, after heroic
patience with the big bad Poles
who kept attacking them, finally
"countercharged." For all you see,
they bombed only military objec-
tives, and nobody, either German
or Polish-was killed. 1t was just
a nice enjoyable picnic this
"countercharge" against Polish
tyranny and insolence. Whey!
And then the "newsreels" the

War Effort OkaYed
Summed up, it's the consensus
of press gallery analysts that the
new forces in this Congress won't
impede the war effort. Anybody
who tried would get Singed by

generally indicates that the people
are satisfied with the conduct of
the war abroad.

WASHINGTON, Feb. TO-
There's a lot of talk going around
about drastic curtailments in gov
eminent hiring being forced on
the Administration by the new
economy bloc" in Congress.
las nearly as l can find out from
those who are in a position to
know, there is mostly political
chatter There is no doubt that
there is a lot of waste motion
among federal employees. The en-
pioyes themselves have complain
ed of it. There's no doubt that the
tidal wave of criticism will have
some beneficial results. But the
opinion now is that it's mostly
sound and fury.
Here's why: The President fired
the first gun that gave the cue to
Administration followers when he
said that out of something under
100000 federal employees, 1,600,-
900 were doing actual war work.
"These," he said, "are the work
ers in navy yards, arsenals, stor-
age depots, military airfields, and
other operating centers."
Some dubious persons thought
the President had been given the
wrong figures. They asked Elmer
Davis, Office of War Information
director, to make a report. He did.
At that moment there were $685.
O93 persons on the federal pay
roll Exclusive of the military
forces)' and of these, 1,612,257
were employed exclusively in pro-
ducing and carrying on for the
war effort. That leaves few more
than a million to perform the civ
ilian and contingent activities
of the government.
To white that down to any ap-
preciable extent would be poll
tical bull's-eye if anyone could
come near the target, but it's a

the war on the home front, there's
4 chance for smooth sailing.
This view implies some hand
some gestures to placate the con-
sentative Southerners and the
near-purgees of 1888. 1t means
economy in non-eSsentials. 1t
means the farm and labor views of
the Southern bloc must get re-
Spectful attention.
Otherwise, it's predicted that a
lot of Democrats will cross the
aisle to join a solid COP minor
ity in making the home front hot
for the New Deal stalwarts of the
past ten years.

Draft Measure

War Department and selectivt
service interest in national service
legislation may lead soon to HOUSE
committee action on a civilian draft
bill applicable to men only.
Introduced recently by Represent
ative Luce, Republican, of Connect.
cut, the bill is now before the Mill.
tary Affairs Committee, but Chair
man May, an avowed opponent Of
."any more RECOMMENDATION of the
people" said there were no plans
for immediate hearings or other
committee action.
! Other committee members dis
closed, however, that pressure
from downtown" as we'll as senti-
ment among the committeeman
may cause the chairman to change
his mind Both War Department
and selective service officials, they
said, are in favor of the bill as a
means of curbing further drafting
of fathers for military service and
also for effective use of available
manpower reserves.
: Mrs. Luce'S bill would create an
Army and Navy maintenance corps
made up of draft-age men who have
not been inducted into the armed
forces.
Would Get Service Pay.
This trained corps would be avail
able for use by industry unable to
obtain manpower elsewhere. Its
members would be subject also to
Induction into the armed forces
when needed. They would receive
the basic service pay, but an en-
ployer using them would pay into
the Treasury the prevailing wage
rate for civilian employees.
Men would be put into the corps
On a selective basis and would be
those who can best leave their
present activities and endeavors
With the least comparative disrup-
tion to the economic and social
structure of the Nation"
To accomplish that objective, men
would be inducted into the corps
In this order:
Volunteers, men who leave an
essential occupation without the ap-
proval of their draft boards, men
who fail to transfer from one essen
tial occupation to another at the di-
rection of their draft boards, men
who absent themselves from essen
tial work without proper cause,
single men under 38 who are classi-
fed 4-F, single men over 38, mar
ried men under 39 without children
and classified 4-F, married men
over 38 with children and classified
4-F, men under 38 with prewar
children.
Favored Using 4-Fs.
The general views of Selective
Service officials on the subject of
compulsory service legislation were
voiced by 1t. Col. Frances v. KEGS
ling, jr., Selective Service legislative
officer, during recent Senate hear
lngs on labor shortages on the West
Coast.
