Penalties for Strikes

In calling for the outlawing of
strikes in vital industries for the
duration of the war, the American
Bar Association merely echoes the
sentiment of very large majority
of the people Of this country.
These strikes, as the association
has said, are completely indie
feasible" But, in a measure, they
are being tolerated, and the lawyers
organization is on sound ground in
calling for governmental action
which will result in effective correc-
tive steps, including "the immediate
prosecution" of those engaged in
strikes.
In this latter respect there have
been indications of a reluctance to
prosecute parties responsible for I'M
lawful strikes. A prosecution is under
way against some offenders in the
recent coal strike, and this is COM
mendable. But by and large, particu-
larry in the case of the So-called
quickie strikes, the disposition ap-
parently has been to get the strikers
back to work and then to forget about
the penalties which, in certain cir
cumstances, now are provided by law.
Undoubtedly, there is an argument
to be made in support of this attitude.
But the important fact remains that
penalties provided in the case of
unlawful strikes, If not applied, will
soon cease to have any part of their
intended effect.

on which rests the welfare of the human
race. But who will say that this work
has been completed2 When the present
crisis Is past, let us hope that men still
will remember the eternal truths and the
indestructable value of the principles
for which they now fight.
But before the Christian spirit can
become fully operative it will be neces-
sary to re-establish in the minds of men
the great historic truths upon which the
Christian faith has been founded. To
use the words of today's epistle, 81 recall
to your mind the gospel that preached
to you :. wherein also you stand
that Christ died for our sins, that He
rose again on the third day that he
appeared to Cephas -. to the eleven
that He was seen by more than five hun
dred brethren at one time ;" The
truth of Christ's divinity, His divine au-
thority and His right to be our spiritual
leader-it is only through the conviction
OF these truths that the Christian spirit
can live and operate as an effective force.
Many OF us who have held to the truth
VA Vic SCAieio al AdCtS anu LIE essential
principles of christianity have been de-
TERED by the seemingly Overwhelming
odds with which we were confronted.
When men were clamoring for material
wealth and pleasure and power, when
materialism was heaping up undreamed-

fication, how could we hope to bring
home to men spiritual and moral prin-
c1ples that lay beyond the reach of the
microscope, the X-ray and the scalpel?
But now that it has been made SO PAIN
FULLY evident to all that material things
can minister only to mans body, but
that mans happiness depends essentially
on the things of the spirit-on Justice
and truth and charity-is there not rea-
son for those who hold to the Christian
faith to renew themselves in the firm de-
termination to proclaim the Christian
truth in all its spiritual beauty and
moral strength?
Paul and his associates faced Difficult
ties greater by far than those which
confront us, with resources immeas-
urably more limited. With the conyic-

determination, the grace of God in us.

Old Sol OVERRIDING 1t
From the Des Moines Register.

from tHe lJeS MONIES ReRlStel.
This is heresy! According to research
Psychologists of the University of Cali
fornia, California sunshine is too bright!
At last one of the superlatives of
land in which superlatives are common
place has backfired. These researchers
have discovered to their dismay, that
the strong California sunlight beating
down on green tomatoes destroys the
chlorophyll in the walled surface
cells of the fruit
AS a consequence of this destructive
action of the sunlight, the mature fruit
develops discoloration known as gray
WALL which seriously impairs the mar
reliability of the tomatoes.
When the Los Angeles Chamber of
Commerce learns of this, we confidently
expect that Old Sol in the future will
wear goggles while looking down on
California truck gardens.

Hubeus Corpus Row

The Hawaiian haDeaS corpus con-
troversy between Federal judge and
the Army has certain aspects that
border on the ludicrous. But it also
involves questions which are of very
real concern in free country.
AS matters stand today, Federal
Judge Delbert Metzger has assessed
$4,000 fine against Lieutenant
General Robert C. Richardson, jr.,
for ignoring writ of habeas corpus
calling upon him to produce two
American citizens of German descent
who are being held by the Army.
General Richardson, as commanding
general of the Army's Hawaiian De-
partment, has countered by issuing
a military order forbidding any fur
ther action on the case, filming any
violator $4,000 and providing that a
military court may try any Judge
violating the order. Thus, we have
the spectacle Of the judge defying the
general, and the general defying the
Judge, with neither apparently able
to do much about it.
There is more involved, however,
than clash of wills between the
two men. The writ of habeas corpus
Is one of the fundamental safeguards
OF personal liberty, since its function
Is to guarantee an accused man his
day in court. Even in time of war
1t should not be lightly suspended.
In this instance the two prisoners,
American citizens, have been held
incommunicado by the Army since
the bombing of Pearl Harbor. 1t
appears that no charges have been
brought against them and no trial
has been held during the nearly two
years that they have been in custody.
This, on its face, raises a suggestion
that the Army's action Is high
handed, to say the least, especially
In view of the fact that compliance
with the writ would do no more than
assure a hearing to determine the
legality of the detention of the
prisoners. Presumably, If the Army
could show good cause for their
arrest, they would be returned to
prison.
But there are two points to be con-
sidered in this respect. First, for
military reasons, the Army might be
unable to disclose in open court its
grounds for holding the men. And
second, even though the grounds are
good, a civilian judge might decide
to release the prisoners This would
put the Army in the position of being
responsible for the defense of Hawaii.
but unable to control the movements
Of individuals whom it regards as
dangerous. In other words, this
essentially is question of whose
Judgment should prevail in a vital
military outpost-;that Of the military
or the civilian authorities. There is
also a legal question as to whether
the suspension of the writ of habeas
corpus has not been rescinded, at
least by implication. But on this
score the weight of the evidence
seems to be on the side of the Army.
1t is always possible in a matter
OF this kind that a particular case
may be first step toward a whole
sale invasion of civilian rights by the
military. But that has not happened
at this time, and in this connection
it may be pertinent to recall that
there was a great hue and cry when
President Lincoln suspended the writ
of habeas corpus during the Civil
War. Yet the record does not show
that this led to any substantial or
lasting impairment of the constltu-
tional rights of the citizens.

the Diocese of Washington and

recently said: eve must begin to
realize that Washington is going to
be twice as big city as it was before

Two Postwar Views

Two members of the Republican
Postwar Advisory Council, soon to
meet on Mackinac Island to write
COP policies, have declared their
opposition to the formation of any
world upergovernment." They
are Senator Taft of Ohio and Clar-
ence Buddington Kelland, Repub-
lican national committeeman for
Arizona and former director of pub
licity for that committee. This does
not mean, however, that Senator
Taft and Mr.. Kelland are opposed to
measures of international co-opera-
ton to maintain peace after the war.
On the contrary, both expressed
hope that such measures may be
successfully taken.
An underlying and basic idea put
forward by both the Ohio Senator
and the Arizona committeeman is
that the United States must at all
times be prepared to guard its own
safety. Mr.. Taft, addressing the
American Bar Association, offered a
seven-point program, including a
proposal that 1--WE must provide an
Army, Navy and air force for our
defense sufficiently strong to re-
move from the mind of any nation
the idea that it can successfully
attack U.S."
Mr.. Kelland was as strong and
even more specific in his development
of the proposal that this country
must, at least for a long time to
come, be impregnable to attack and
prepared to fight for peace, if neces-
sary. Our Nation must build and
maintain a fleet the most powerful
in the world. Not two-ocean Navy,
but fve-ocean Navy. 1t must pro-
vide itself with an air force so nu-
merous and efficient as to stand
alone. 1t must continue standing
Army of sufficient size and training"
He insisted that we must ring the
United States with defenses-outly-
ing bases-located in both the Pacific
and Atlantic Oceans. In other words,
that the United States must insist
upon retaining many, if not all, Of
the bases which it has constructed
and is now using in the prosecution
of the present war.
After the last war the United
States led the way toward program
of limited armaments-witht the idea
that ultimately almost complete dis
armament might prevail. 1t scuttled
a huge Navy program. 1t failed to
provide for universal military train
ing for it's young men or to maintain
a standing Army of sufficient size.
And at the same time it remained
outside of the one agency which
might have done something to pre-
serve peace-the League of Nations.
This country cannot afford such a
gamble in the future. The cost in
blood and treasure, If the gamble
fails, as did the last one, is too great.
The American people and their Gov
eminent, when the war has been
won, must be watchful to see that in
sidious propaganda and the pleas of
well-meaning, but impractical, per-
sons do not again impair our de-
lenses. The demand that expenses
for armament be cut to the bone may
be expected from a tax-ridden
people. And the demand that this
country again take the lead in dis
armament race will be heard from
many quarters.
1t is proper and feasible that the
United States play it's part in an in
ternational effort to maintain peace.
But, pending real assurance OF
peace, it would be entirely improper
and indefensible If this country
again were to throw away its means
of lf-defense.

Theory and Practice
From the Kingston whig-standard.

From the KINGSTON Wing Standard.
A doctor in London, Ontario, SAYS that
rationing will prove boon to Canadians
and should be continued after the war.
AS far as health is concerned, the good
doctor may be right, but we shudder to
think Of what would happen to the gov
eminent trying to put his theory into
practice.

We're proud of the way the GSO girls have been helping us out at the canteen.

Alaska War Council Issues Report After
 2-Day (onfab Here

Continued from Page One) to the development of more coal operations in the Territory, the Council informed Harold L. Ickes, Fuel Coordinator and Secretary of the Interior, that at present only three mines in the railroad belt are in operation and the supply is clearly inadequate for present and impending needs"
 Ask More Lumber
 Army and Navy heads in Alaska were asked to take immediate action to obtain a substantial increase in production of lumber and other tim Der products for local military use from the extensive Alaska forests, helping to relieve heavy demands on Pacific Northwest and Puget Sound timber industries and shipping facil- ities between here and the States.
 It was also suggested that the military request the Alaska branch of the Forest Service to cooperate fully as consultant and coordinator with construction and supply branches of the military in Alaska and the nearby Yukon Territory.
 The Civil Service Commission was informed by the War Council that the recent policy adopted by the Commission providing the salary differential for Alaska shall apply only to personnel recruited from the States will, if effected, wreck the war effort and conduct of all Federal activities in Alaska"
 Said the Council: "The funda- mental reason and need for dif- ferential in Alaska is admittedly higher living costs which prevail. by which all Federal employees are equally affected.
 Differential for All
 "A differential in varying amounts, not to exceed 25 percent of base salary, has previously been granted to a large number of Federal em- ployees in order that they might receive living wage. Any reduction in pay now established because of discrimination as to source of em- ployment will force them into more lucrative employment.
 "The Alaska War Council requests that a 25 percent differential be granted all Alaskan personnel, that the limitation, applied only to per sonnel recruited from the States be deleted."
 This was the second regular meet ing of the Council since it was created by a Presidential executive order last year.
