FAITH and WORKS


natives of long or of a short
war are, in effect, being placed
before the American people. The
200 industrial, labor and news
paper leaders who have been in
yited to the War Departments
Pentagon are being told that
while the tide of battle has OBJ
viously turned, tn remaining
steps in the march to victory can
be very costly; that all the Ma
tons energies need to be focused
on the all-out push, that this is
decidedly not the moment to re-
lax.
The War Department has un-
dertsken a job in civilian morale
that seemed a little more diff
cult few weeks ago when this
meeting was projected and when
the slogan was Turkey in Rome,
Christmas at home" Today the
news comes of bayonet.to-bayo
net fighting both in the hills that
guard the plain of Naples and at
the east bank o f the Dnieper
bend. There is no need to am
plify those words. All who read
them in their daily papers know
the price some men of our COM
munity are paying for the free
ing protection of their families
and neighbors, and, as we fer
vently hope, a better world. None
but the craven in heart could
deny them fullest support now.
AS the ring tightens against
aggressor nations, it may be that
their dressings to avoid uncon-
dictional capitulation will become
more violent. The information
from Militay Intelligence that air
strength of Germany and Japan,
especially in fighters. is growing
both quantitatively and qualita-
lively, and the resume of avail
able men and material given on
the Axis side, all tend to bolster
the Army's considered statement
that the cost may mount. How
ever, this is not inevitable and
should be accepted as such.
Mr.. Churchill has repeatedly
c o n d e m n ed the dull Allied
leadership in 1914 to 1918 that
saw no other course than blunt,
sanguinary frontal assaults, and
uninspired Grant-like pounding
and overwhelming by weight of
men and material, Allied leader
ship twenty years ago was, to
say the least. not brilliant.
But Allied peoples should not
accept any patiently erroneous

ner, already having placed the

hind the eight-ball with his Wag.

In brief. the measure now un-

proposes that the Surgeon Gen.

I Q) hire doctors and establish
rates of pay. possibly for all doc

tications for specialists; az de-
termine the number of individ-
uals for whom any physician may
provide service; and (5) deter.
mine arbitrarily what hospitals
or clinics may provide services
for patients.
There is no public demand for
socialistic practices in the field
of medicine, or in any other
field in America. There can be
no possible excuse for arbitrarily
placing men of science engaged
in basic human welfare work, un-
der political domination. 1t
would be but mere step farther,
and hardly more uncomfortable.
