Hull's Masterpiece

The Declaration of Moscow accepted as the
product of the delegates in the Russian capt.
tai, is nevertheless the brain child of the
American Secretary of State, Mr.. Cordell Hull.
1t was he who set up the machinery for its
compilation It was he who directed the con-
situations of groups designated to consider its
provisions, he who approved the final draft
in which only minor change were made be-
fore the delegates of the contracting powers
affixed their signatures.
The history of the drafting OF the Declara-
ton is interesting 1t might nave been as
sumed by most persons that the delegates of
the United States, Britain and Russia, once
assembled in Moscow, set to work to frame in
concert first, the detectives to be sought and,
secondly, the phrasing thereof But it was not
done this way Instead the Declaration was
the result of months spent in discussions and
composition by two committees in Washing
ton, organized and supervised by Mr.. Hull
One was headed by Norman Davis, chairman
of the American Red Cross, the other by Sum-
ner Welles, whose diplomatic experience was
invaluable when political aspect were under
consideration. Under them were private citi,
zens, departmental officials, officers of the
Army and Navy. They worked throughout the
late spring and early summer, completing the
eighth draft on June rs. Many pens were in
volved in the authorship, but the only blue
pencil was that of Mr.. Hull
1t was this document the Secretary of State
carried with him to Moscow. It is notable thai
no change affecting fundamental principle
was made in it.
In adding our word Of praise for Mr. Hulrs
great work, and of thankfulness to him, WE
cannot help feeling that though it is the pro
duct Of his maturity we could wish him
younger. The nation will have need for his
craftsmanship. We would be grateful indeed
if it might be his hand on the helm of state
in the next quadrennium.

More Atrocities In Poland

Now come reports that as the Russians near
the Polish border on the neels of retreating
German forces the Nazs are practicing worse
atrocities in Poland than in the days of the
great purge following the fall of Warsaw
Poles are being murdered, not because they
have committed a crime, even against the
evil gestapo but merely because they are
Poles
AND the reason is obvious. The Germans
understand only too we'll what will happen to
lhem once Poland is freed from the Nazi yoke.
roland Will, in these circumstances, become
another slaughter pen, but tie victims this
time will be Germans
"A terrible retributon awaits them, and
from the speed of the advancing Reds, the
time is not far off.
Inc Polish underground, perhaps the best
organized and efficient in occupied Europe, is
understood to be fully prepared for the ven
geance the Polish survivors of German perse-
cutlons believe they are justifiec in wreaking
upon their conquerors.
However reluctant every sane person is to
contemplate the loss of human life at any time,
1t is inevitable that the anti-Axis world would
welcome the news that the Poles, at last after
living in hell so long. had finally had their re-
venge.

Call 1t Oleo

Whatever decision the House Of Representa-
controversy, there is one aspect OF the situa.
ton that probably will remain as confused
as ever. That is the problem of how to pro.
nounce margarine.
Margarine is derived Chat is, the word, not
the product from the Latin mafgarita, mean
ing pearl which in turn stems from the Greek
margaron, also meaning pearl. Both root
words are pronounced with hard 6, as in
Margaret, not soft one, as in Marjorie. Yet
almost all of us pronounce it as if it were
spelled with ].
Dictionaries held out for long time against
public pressure. But the latest edition of the

Oversteps The Bounds

We know nothing about Bahaman iurisn,,-

But it is hard to reconcile the acouitta1 of
Alfred de Marigny by jury in the Bahamas
Supreme court, on a charge of numbering his
father-in-law with it's recommendation that he
be deporteds
We must assume the recommendation was
an expression of ill-wll toward de Marignv nv
the jurors as individuals and necessarily had
no legal significance. Certainly. in juxtano-
sition to its legal decision on the murder
charge, it was bad taste
This is not said in defense Of de Maronv
He may well deserve deportation, but a trial
jury is not a grand jury and has no authority
to return an indictment, but only to Judge a
defendant guilty or innocent of crime. The
fitness of any individual for residence in

If the Bahaman jury wanted to be rid of
de Marigny it should have convicted him
which it could not do On the testimony offered
at his trial.

Independent Air Power

Major Alexander P. de Seversky says tina
the recent Army regulation giving the al
force tactical equality with the ground force!
has caused much confusion, particularly II
the public mind. The misconception, he says
needs to be corrected. There can be no equa
status, in his opinion until an Air department
is set up, with a Cabinet member and 'un
hampered authority to develop strategic ideas
and equipment in its own domain"
The reasons he gives for an air branch, anc
his definition of the limitations of the new
regulation, seem to the lay mind to have
their foundation in logic. He lists four:
l. Our air potential is still split into
various parts, among the Army, Navy,
Marines, Coast Guard and Civil Aeronau-
tics Authority, each under different con-
troll. Obviously the Army regulations are
limited to that one part of our air power.
The mischief of the situation is evidenced
by the fact that the Navy is today dupli-
eating land-base air power and competing
with the Army for equipment bases and
operations.
2. The new manual of the Army repre-
ployment of its air power in tactical CO.
operation with its land forces. giving its
aerial arm full leeway in working out its
end of the combined effort. The ques-
ton OF overall national strategy-of the
main plan of war-Which is what is in
volved in the struggle for separate air
department, does not enter at all
3. Our top airmen. including one with
four stars on his shoulders, are still subor-
dinate to the highest Army leadership,
and must work and plan strictly within
the bounds set by the Army and within
budgetary assignments by the Army.
4. Unlike sea power and land power
whose spokesman can go directly not only
to the Commander in Chief but to the
people through Congress in defending their
plans and conceptions of war-making, air
power must go through Army and Navy
superlors. The air leaders must contin-
ually educate surface-minded strategists
and must "sell' the air power viewpoint to
Army and Navy superiors They have no
right or means to insist on adoption of
their ideas for conducting the war in pref
erence to Army and Navy ideas.
Being an airman. devoted to the cause O.
aviation in peace or war. Mr. de Seversky see!
air power as the dominant force in winning
the war and the decisive national force il
shaping postwar internatona, relations
Many persons both in civilian and military
life give his view complete agreement. Lons
before this war started there was a call ir
some informed quarters for an Independent
and united air command. These will welcome
his declaration, therefore, that air powe
must be unified and harnesscd for fulles
use under unimpeded direction by airmen will

colleagues in the War and Navy Departments.
