On the Record
BY DOROTHY THOMPSON.

For some reason, if a man is
the first to fly the Atlantic
Ocean, or survives three weeks
on a rubber raft in the Pacific,
he becomes an expert on every
question under the sun. and is
given earnest and respectful at
tcntion.
He does, that is to say, provided
he finds powerful enough back
ing, A worker Of the Merchant
Marine, who has been torpedOed
three times, is not asked to adj
dress the New York State AS
Sembly on what he thinks of the
present activities and the future
hopes Of his fellow workers. He
goes to sea again, and maybe he
comes home.
This is a prelude, written in
not very good temper, to some
comments on Capt. Eddie Rick
enbacker's speech before the
New York State Assembly. Capt.
Rickenbackcr is trying to throw
off comments on his speeches by
suggesting that such comments,
if Of a critical nature, are re-
Strlctions on free speech. Since
he was granted full page in the
New York Times for the text of
his address, carried also in great
detail by the news services, as
we'll as on the radio-Which he
attacks-and speaking for the
Victory Corps, the charge Of
structures on free speech may be
brushed aside.
Parrish Address.
Capt. Rickenbacker needs to be
answered. His address was par
tisan and provocative in the ex-
IRENE. Nor can an address Of
that length and Importance be
dismissed, favorably or unfavor-
ably, in few words.
Capt. Rickenbacker represents
no person or persons, group or
groups. Nor have any political
ambitions, but speak for myself
alone, but echo the sentiments
Of millions" and prefers to break
bread with Henry Ford" never
theless does speak for tendency
IN American life, and this ten
dency and the ideas attending it
demand open consideration.
We will certainly not quarrel
with Capt. Rickenbacker's crit
icism Of many trade-union prac-
tees. That the leadership of
some unions is incompetent or
corrupt; that the trade unions
claim exemption from social
controls necessary today, in be-
half of the public welfare, for all
bodies welding that amount of
economic power; that feather
bedism still fourishes even with
a manpower shortage; that some
of them want to exploit the war
situation, and that most of them
could be democratized, to the
advantage of the workers them
selves is only too true. But this
is one side Of the picture.
Attacks Basis of Unions.
Capt. Rickenbacker's attacks
go beyond these justified accu-
sations. Although he denies it
in words, he attacks the very

Vowing that Pop" too, can keep
the home front solid, group Of
fathers of men and women in the
armed services last night formed
the first Washington chapter of
American War Dads.
Started in Kansas City, Mo, last
year, the American War Dads has
spread to nearly dozen States and
has as its creed, Back up our sons
and daughters"
A. NJ. Wolford, an attorney with
the Reconstruction Finance Corp,
was elected the first president of
the local group at a meeting in the
Calvary Baptist Church.
Other officers elected were Free
man Strickland, vice president;
Philip A. Wright, treasurer, and
Earl Fuller, secretary.
Four point goal of the organiza-
ton is: ITO back our sons and
daughters who are fighting for free
dom and justice; to promote serv-
! ice on the home front to help win
the war; to work for a lasting peace
/ to aid our sons and daughters in
/ their employment needs and their
rehabilitation program after the du-
/ ration"

ness in terms of votes. Neither in
tends to be pushed into what they
think is the weak political spot.
Professions Unreal.
Apparently, the President pro-
poses to continue emphasizing the
New Deal slogan of soak the rich
though the saturation point having
been reached it clearly isn't pos
sible to soak them any harder with
out soaking everybody else proper
tionately harder still. And, appar-
entity, Congress does not propose
to let the President go into his
fourth-term campaign, which his
friends are now openly promoting,
claiming to be the one exclusive
and original poor mans friend
On both sides the pretensions are
insincere and unreal. And they are,
at the moment, the chief obstacle
to the enactment Of a sound and
adequate tax program.
Actually, the whole tax question
is in danger of being smeared with
politics by men who have their
minds on next years campaign. This
is not true of the few like Senator
George Of Georgia. who qualify as
tax authorities. But it is true of
the bulk Of them.
Perhaps a public sentiment may
develop as a corrective for this state
of affairs. The trouble is that that
kind Of public sentiment depends
upon public understanding and, to
put it mildly, the public mind is
more than little muddy on the
subject Nor has it been clarified
by the recent Treasury-inspired ra-
dio discussions-quite the reverse.

order and stability to the rights
Of workers, organized or I'M
organized; and the whole struc-
ture which makes labor organi-
zation possible. And for all the
faults in our war production.
he blameS the workers and
blames them exclusively.
He demands, for instance, that
union dues be suspended for the
duration Of the war. thereby re-
moving those reserves which
unions build up for times of
emergency, one Of which will Ger
tainly follow this war.
He wants the repeal Of the
Wage-Hour Law, which provides
overtime pay for work done be-
You'd 40 hours a week. This
amounts to a radical wage cut,
and would destroy existing con-
tracts, and bring anarchy into
the whole situation. These con-
tracts, CT course, cover morgan
lied workers as well as organized,
and would hit all equally.
He suggests that an incentive
plan, which in some industries,
he SAYS. has upped production, be
substituted for the Wage-Hour
law. This part Of his speech is
unhltelligible. for all industries
engaged in interstate commerce
are under the Wage-Hour law,
though numerous incentive plans,
or bonus plans, supplement this
and often with good results.
Real Causes of Absenteeism.
He attacks absenteeism, and
attributes it by every inference
to the lack OF morale of the
workers and the wickedness of
trade union leaders.
Now, absenteeism is a serious
matter in our industries. But
what are its real causes? Does
Capt. Rickenbacker know?
No thorough. overall study, has
yet been made of the causes of
abscnteelSm. The Labor De-
partment, the Manpower Com
mission, and the unions them
selves, who have been fighting it
much longer than Capt. Ricken-
hacker, have discovered a num-
Der of reasons.
Normally, it is about per cent.
Today it is around 8 per cent, in
some places higher. But although
Britain has the highest rate Of
production per man per hour Of
any Allied contries, Britain also
went through this curse. The
reasons are numerous and COM
plicated Old workers and wom-
en- have replaced young men.
Transportation is inadequate.
There have been heavy snow
falls and a serious epidemic of
grippe.
This does not account for all
absenteeism but it accounts for
much, as DO greatly increased
hours, and the overstrain of war.
But absenteeism is not the vice
Of a single class, as Capt. Ricken-
hacker attempts to make it ap-
pear And the address-and its
results on the morale of work
ers-needs further analysis.

Decentralization PichtS Reserved

By CONSTANTINE BROWN.

Allied military leaders regard
the present counteroffensive in
Central Tunisia as a local opera
ton, just as they regarded the
original "blitz' of Field Marshal
Rommel.
However, political and diplo-
matte quarters, which have been
far more concerned over the
Nazi commander activities. are
giving a deep sigh Of relief be-
cause the Allies are by way OF
re-establiShing an unpleasant
situation. For American diplo-
mats we're considerably worried
over the effect even local often
sives by Rommel might have on
the Spaniards in North Africa.
1t is true that Generalissimo
Francisco Franco is anxious to
keep his country out of the war.
He is equally eager to feed and
clothe his people, who are lack
ing almost everything from bread
to shoes. This only source Of
supplies is the Allied Nations
which are continuing to spoon
feed him by sending him every
month a minimum Of supplies to
carry on.
Franco knows that he can ex-
pect little In the way of essentials
for the civilians from the Nazis.
Hence, he intends to keep on the
borderline until such time as the
Allie make some definite gains in
their military operations.
Morocco Danger.
But the Spanish Army In Mo-
rocco, while depending entirely
on Madrid, is composed mostly
of Foreign Legionnaires and ma
tive Moroccan troops who could
be sWayed without much trouble
should the NaZi armies make
progress on the western front of
North Africa. This danger has
now been temporarily removed.
Although reports from neutral
countries in Europe continue to
emphasize that the Germans are
concentrating large forces on the
French-Spanish border, it ap-
pears that this news is inspired
by Nazi agents In Bern, Madrid
and Lisbon.
In recent weeks, according to
reliable information, there has
been no noticeable activity of
German forces in that area. If
anything at all, some Of the in
fantry units in the Pyrenees have
been withdrawn to Southern
France, apparently to be on hand
as reinforcements for the African
campaign or to bolster defenses
in order to avoid any surprise
attack from the Allies.
There is no question that the
Nazi high command is seriously
concerned over Allied operations
in the Mediterranean. Along the
same lines, accurate reports from
the Balkans indicate the Ger
mans have been terrifying the
coast Of Greece and particularly
Crete, which they intend to make
into another Malta of the East
ern Mediterranean.

war materials, steel and concrete
have been taken to Crete, where
the population is being forced 70
work day and night under I've
ort.rs Of Nazi engineers TO make
the island an impregnable out
post.
Underground airflelds and
storage space for gasoline are
being constructed on the rocky
island while the natural facilities
Of Canea Bay, Messara Bay and
the Gulf of Mirabello are being
exploited to make them into
ideal submarine bases.
It is reported that the Nazi
high command does not regard
as bluff" the declarations OF
President Roosevelt and Prime
Minister Churchill that the Allies
will hit hard this year at the
Nazis in Europe. They believe
that in spite of the grave risks
and the likelihood that hundreds
of thousands OF men may be lost
in such operations, the Allied
high command can not hold back
any longer.
The two leaders have gone on
record that the main operations
henceforth will take place on
the European continent. Any
change of plans regardless Of
what may happen in the Pacific
or anywhere else would bring
about a grave disappointment in
Russia. Premier Stain does not
miss a chance to show his irrita-
ton at the slowness of action Of
his associates in the west.
Allied Peoples Keyed Up
But what is more important
is the fact that the people in the
United States and Great Britain
have been keyed up to expect the
beginning of the end" of the
Nazis this year. Any move In the
reverse, unless caused by newt
able military necessities, might
cause a deep irritation in both
countries which are anxious to
see the end of the war and are
being educated to look to the Gre
alton of happier world in a
reasonably short time.
The masses do not think in
military terms. They do not stop
to analyze military situations.
Such an analysis, they figure.
must have been made by Presi-
dent Roosevelt before he went on
record and announced emphatic
ally that the way to Berlin and
Rome would be opened in 1913.
These factors are being taken
into consideration by the Nazi
high command. Hitler and his
advisers know that an invasion
Of Europe this year has become a
must" for the Allies and they
are preparing to make the best
out of what is intended to be a
bad situation for the Axis.
The only element of surprise
for the Berlin command involves
the point at which the Allies will
strike. In the meanwhile troops
from the 100 available divisions in
the Reich and Western Europe
are being rushed to all possible
invasion sectors
