A Worthy Successor

MANAGING dictatorship Of the Detroit War Chest
Vl passed yesterday from Percva Dodge to Robert H.
MacRae The former in token doubt Of his sound
record has been called East to become director of the
New York committee of the National War Fund
Detroit is fortunate in having wellequpped
young MacRae to administer the War Chest the
Detroit Community Fund and the Council of Social
Agencies
His educational and practical background fit him
admirably for the arduous triple task he has undertaken
After graduation in 1929 from the University of Michigan
where he had specialized in social work he became assist
ant secretary of the Childrens Fund of Michigan. For
years in that post he famiarized himself with the
complexities Of actual social service under the brilliant
tuteage of William J. Norton. He next went to the
Council of Social Agencies
Measure of his fitness for his big job is indicated
by the fact that he the unanimous choice without
opposition of all Detrots social agencies His instructive
sympathy for human misfortune is balanced by
solid Scotch practically. He should be in every way
worthy successor to the veteran Dodge

A Splendid Dream

ONE of our favorte journalists the scholarly but vital
~ W. K Kelsey confessed the other day in his Detroit
News column that he has long dreamed of IAN eventual
municipal conservatory with symphonic concerts and
operas"
That is a splendid dream, but why has Kelsey been
difdent about it so long? Why hasn't he balyhooed
1t and browbeaten his fellow Detroiers into making
ultimate reality?
It has lofty cultural possibilities. 1t might be tied up
with partial municipal subsidy of the Detroit Symphony
Orchestra so that organization revive after the
on solid permanent basis And it might include under
auspices OF the Detroit Institute OF Arts definite
plan for the practical encouragement Of artists native to
Michigan
Ideas of this nature don't belong in dreams They
belong eemately TO the program Of postwar planning
for Detroit.

THERE Is reason TO believe
Il the Democratic leaders in
the Senate and House made a
canvass indicating that they
had chance 10 put across their
old program giving Congress any
more say in the matter of tar
ifs than it now has.
The Democratic leaders were
sure of the Senate, less certain
of the House, but judged their
chances worth a try. Thereafter
Mr.. Hull insisted more loudly
than before that his powers be
unrestrained and unimpaired,
AS result. the Democrats
and Republicans in the commit
tee resumed straight-out party
warfare. After an executive
session the Republicans came
out and announced they would
propose several amendments,
not only giving Congress a CO.
day veto power, but other holds
on the administrations recipro-
cal trade policy. The battle
from now on will be loud and
furious.
INVASION weather has opened
Il in Europe. From mid-April
10 mid-October. the season is
favorable 10 military operations

way southwark.
This is an ominous (although
not widely noted) fact in view
of the repeated public state
ments by MessrS. Roosevelt and
Churchill that Europe would be
invaded, not on one but on sew
eral fronts this year.
The particular spots for at
tack, as well as the time, are
naturally secret, but, in general.
the prospects are too obvious
TO be secrets. Invasion of Nor
way would break the Nazi hold
on Scandinavia, free the pres
sure on Sweden. and limit Nazi
supplies of fish and iron ore.
Invasion of Denmark could
hardly be attempted until Nor
way was cleared But Holland
and Belgium offer shortest di-
rect routes to the heart of Ger
many.
The Nazis have greatly i'm
proved the roads and Concen-
trated reserves for shifting
greater defensive powers TO any
point of invasion in those coun-
tries. and down the channel
coast of France. Yet we can
get air supremacy over invasion
points there, and direct invasion
is possible.
Invasion in the south also has
been promised by the authori-
ties. The final acquisition of
Tunisia will, of course, give us

~ This is one Of several re-

American who was sent back 10
Japan for education and indOC-

those who were born in Japan.

not trusted, however.

If their pitching proves ADEQUATE.
the Cardinals can make the Yam

st. Louis has proved itself better
both in fielding and in hitting. AS
a club the Cardinals are outhitting
the Yanks by Is points and Their
superior speed on the basepaths has
enabled them to top New York in
total bases despite the fact that the
Yankees, up until today, had hit
SO home runs to SO for the Cardinals.
All of this has contrived to make
the forthcoming series as nearly un-
practicable as any in history.
Both teams have lost stars from
the cast which provided so many
thrills year ago. Johnny Beazley,
who pitched two of the Cardinals
conquests, and Terry Moore and
Enos Slaughter, whose play in the
outfleld was nothing short of SEN
sational, are among the st. Louis
standouts who have entered mill
tary service, while the Yankees have
given up Red Rufhng, who pitched
ia innings of no-hit ball in the
first game; Joe Di Maggie, their
great outfielder, and Shortstop Phil
Rizzuto, who batted .391 in the
series.
Yet potential new stars have
taken their places and this series.

ASSOCIATED Press Sports Writer

NEW YORK, Oct. 2-Another
World Series, a sports spectacle
which instead of losing it's luster
In wartime seems to have gained
new glamour, will open in mammoth
Yankee stadium Tuesday with the
st. Louis Cardinals again facing
the New York Yankees.
Record crowds of more than 10000
fans are in prospect for one or all
OF the three games to be played in
New York and there is no doubt
that SportSman's Park, seating 3d.
600, will be sold out when the Series
moves to st. Louis next Sunday.
The fact that the regular base
ball season closing tomorrow gen.
orally has been dull, with dWindling
attendance and nothing resembling
a sustained pennant race in either
major league, makes the interest
displayed in the 1943 diamond clas-
sic all the more remarkable.
All box and reserved seats at the
stadium have been sold for approx
mately two weeks and scalpers have
been reported reaping as high as
$50 for strip of tickets to three
games valued originally at $3.50
However, $4,000 grandstand and
bleacher tickets will be on sale on
the day of each game.
Record Crowd in .H"-cspec-.
Although the stadium never has
been sold out for Series tu-S.c, in
dications are that last years all
time record turnout of 69.9O2 on
Sunday, October 4 will be topped.
The Yankees have been estab-
lished favorites to beat the Cardi-
mails, although last year when the
same situation existed the Redbirds
won the world championship with
four straight victories after losing
the opening installment.
The reason for the odds favoring
New York apparently is twofold-
