microscopic care on the lookout for legal

The chief criticism directed against
the sweeping executive edicts is that all
too often they leave areas of overlapping
authority so that wrangling between one
department and another continues long
after it was to have been ended. That
was true, for example, of the order Great
ing the War Shipping Administration
Authority was blurred. The Navy still
had some power over shipping, so did
the Army. Then there was the Ship
ping Priorities Committee of the War
Production Board. A no-man's land
existed in which pickering and confusion
continued.
One Of the historic orders of the war
was that creating the War Production
Board. InaSmuch as Donald M. Nelson
was to be chief of WPB, he was allowed
to have large part in the drafting
of the edict With the caution that is
one of his conspicuous traits, Nelson
went over the language of the order q
half dozen times, writing in word or
WV llCiC oi4o SclCOills OLllCl language.
He wanted to be sure that no loopholes
would be discovered after it was too late
to correct them.
Most of the war agencies, including
the vastly proliferating OPA, were
created by executive order. After they
are set up these agencies must in turn
issue regulations and prescriptions by
the volume if they are to do their jo1.
1t is an inevitable feature of the war
time landscape. Nevertheless, Congress,
increasingly concerned over encroach-
ments on the legislative branch of Gov
eminent, and sensitive to Sights and
neglect, is bent on examining the phe-
nomenon and, possibly, curling it.

The ineXhaustible ceroe5 Of a great
fight are now getting the rest they richly
deserve.
It was announced here on Thursday
that most of the marines have been
withdrawn from Guadalcanal, where
since last August, in the jungles, along
the rivers, up and down the ridges and
inside the caves Of that remote Solomon
Island they have been fighting almost
without cessation, never knowing when
they were to be fired upon from the
trees or bombarded from the air. With
them went their gallant commander,
Mai Gen. Alexander C. Vandergrift
Their places were taken by United
States soldiers commanded by Mai Gen
Alexander M Patch. He is Immediately

western from the eastern Mediterranean.
The day we manage to throw the Axis
out of Tunisia our transport will have
free access to the southern Mediterran-
can where naval and air bases can be
constructed in preparation for an in
vaSion.
The Nazis, who realize that they are
more vulnerable from that area than
from the west, are now busy fortifying
the entire North Mediterranean shore
But their task, If they lose Tunisia, will
be incomparably more dificult They
may be able to hold Italy, which to them
Is as helpful today as milestone around
drowning mans neck.
But they will have serious difficulties
defending Greece and Yugoslavia, where
the guerrillas are keeping the pot boil
ing and harassing the occupation forces
every day. The organized guerrillas of
Gen. Draja Mihailovich and the loose
but no less determined bands in the
mountains and the valleys of Greece,
continue to be thorn in the side Of
the Nazis The fertilization of regions
infested by raiding bands of trained SOL
diers sufficiently well-equipped with ma
chine guns, rifles and hand-grenades is
a task which the Germans cannot cope
with too easily.
In the east there is Turkey, country
which still is neutral, but has shown
definite inclination toward joining an
American British invasion force. Turkey
at given moment could become a seri-
Gus menace to the Axis Even If she
were not fully prepared for an active
campaign, her leanings toward the Allies
would make 1t necessary for the Axis to
keep large force permanently on the
Turkish Bulgarian border.
The loyalty of the Bulgars to the Reich
Is equally questionable. Today they are
in the Axis camp, but they are not fight
ing on any front The Nazi high COM
mand intends to use them in a war
against Turkey. There is no doubt that
the Bulgars would fight the Turks so
long as the Nazis hold the whiphand in
Europe. But in the event things turn
against them and an Allied force is ready
to put in an appearance in the Balkans,
1t would not be an exaggeration to say
that the Bulgarians would be among the
first to plunge dagger in the Nazis'
backs.
The Bulgarians are the only race in
the Balkan area who look on the Rus
slams as their protectors and saviors.
They have gone to war on the side of
the Axis, but even Hitler has not dared
send a single Bulgarian platoon into
Russia. He knew that they would not
dare shot against the Russians.
Hence an Allied campaign by the
longer route of Southeastern and East
ern Europe appears to most observers a
more likely and desirable If an offensive

millions of their nationals or former
nationals who live abroad.
1t. Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhowers expe-
dition to Northwest Africa collided with
virtual civil war between Vichy and
Fighting Frenchmen. Outright hostili-
ties have appeared in Yugoslavia be-
tween guerrilla bands commanded by
Gen. Draja Mikailovich and Leftist
groups known as Partisans, who have
been adopted by the Soviet Union. In
stead of letting Gen. Mikailovich alone
as an independent guerrilla chieftain,
King Peters government made the fatal
blunder of naming him minister of war.
Thus he was tied up officially with the
fortunes of the Serbian royal house,
which is detested in Croatia and Slo-
yenia and IN parts of Serbia itself.
Many of the free movements" with
headquarters in Britain or the United
States, are bitterly divided The Hun
garian Committee has democratic wing
which is opposed to Admiral Horthy on
theological grounds, and a conservative
faction which dislikes him personally,
but has no objection to the regency sys-
tenn. The Free Rumanians are split over
adherence to King Carol and his re-
pudiation.
The Austrian Committee consists of
liberals who reject the HapSburg mon
archy and of opponents ready to CO.
operate with it. This division was brought
into the open not long ago by Secretary
of War Stimsons acceptance of Arch
duke Otto, pretender to the throne of
the Austro-Hungarian Empire, as head
of a committee to recruit an Austrian
battalion for the United States Army.

Consult Every Agency.
The men who are responsible for draft
ing executive legislation consult every
agency likely TO be affected by the order.
They want to try to foresee every eventu-

He stayed strictly away from talk about
Mr.. Roosevelt for third term.

1t required skill and diplomacy, but
Germany had never lacked those.
The result, Borkin said, was that when
war came, Germany not only was able to
produce the oil and rubber which a
blockade might shut off, but also had
tremendous capacity for light metals,
military glass, plastics and drugs built
up by selling to most of the world in

Recalling Germany's international
agreements before the First World War
and the ease with which the Reich re-

great gains after that conflict, Borkin
said that I. G. already had planned
for postwar reconstruction-win or

Reports from occupied countries show
that T. G. experts have followed Hitler's
