SUPPLIES TO AND FROM AFRICA

!. About six hundred thousand tons of
supplies have been shipped to North Al
RIGA to meet the urgent needs of the popu-
laffon, according to Lend-Lease Admins
traitor Edward r. Stettinius, Jr.
). 1t is interesting to observe that the
United States has sent 158, 234 tons of sup
plies and the British about 10000 tons,
mostly coal
Ships returning to British and Amer
lean ports have delivered more than $780,
O0Q tons of raw materials, needed for NUM-
ton and farm production. This little item
also calls attention to the fact that the oc-
cupation of North Africa cut the Axis OFF
from these supplies.

But the question confronting her

''Poof," said Penny. Il can take

He ignored that. eff you start

Reluctantly, Penny found her

Firmer Wuqe Policy

The determination with which the
War Labor Board is resisting unwar-
ranted wage demands in the face of
strikes and threats of strikes is an
encouraging indication that the
members of this agency intend to
stick to their nti-inflation guns as
long as it is possible for them to
do so.
This uncompromising attitude first
manifested itself in the coal case,
when the board refused to bow to the
imperious but unjustified demands of
John L. Lewis. In the face of strike
action, other influential members of
the administration were obviously
trying to put through a compromise
which would have given the miners
a substantial pay increase in dis
guised form. But the board refused
to lend its support to this devious
undertaking, and thereby made a
very real contribution to the national
welfare.
More recently the board again has
taken a firm stand in refusing to
revise upward its three cent hourly
award to the Akron rubber workers.
On the facts of the case, that is all
that the rubber workers are entitled
to. But board panel had recon-
mended an eight-cent increase, and
the workers recently went out on
strike when the full board cut this to
three cents. The strike action forced
the board to reconsider it's ruling,
and there was apprehension that it
might make some compromise rather
than risk another head-on clash with
labor so soon after the bitter strug-
gle with Mr.. Lewis.
But the board has stood its ground,
and this lends support to the hope
that we have passed the time when
powerful economic groups could in
sist upon, and get, special wage treat
ment. Before coming to any final
conclusions on this point it would be
well to await the result of the appeal
to the President by the incorporating
railroad employees from the refusal of
Sterilization Director Vinson to ap-
prove general wage increase for
them. In a similar situation last
year, Mr.. Roosevelt yielded to the
demands of railroad workers, and if
there is a repetition of this the
boards efforts will be largely nulli-
fed. But if the President is as firm
as the board has been, it will be pos
sible to undertake the stabilizatio of
other costs with great deal more
confidence than at any time in the
past.

Chinese EIoquence

Many Americans have commented
upon the eloquence of Madame
Chang Kai-shek. No other woman
living, it has been suggested, is pos
sessed of a comparable skill with
words. Her own personal genius
naturally is credited in the circum-
stances. But it would be her wish,
if she could choose, that acknoWl-
edgment be made to the ancient
culture which she represents. She
speaks for a people long famous for
the beauty OF their utterance, and
the poetic manner which character
ICES her speech is theirs.
Evidence in support of that conclu-
sion is readily available in the
District of Columbia. Any skeptic
who climbs 220 feet in the Wash
ington Monument will find there a
stone inscribed with symbols which
may be translated as follows:
Su-Ki-Yu, by imperial appointment,
Lieutenant Governor of the Province of
Fuh Kun, in his Universal Geography
says: ut is evident that (George) Wash
ington was a remarkable man. In de-
vising plans, he was more decided than

country, he was braver than Tsau-Tsau
or Lin Pi. WELDING his four-footed
falchion, he extended the frontiers thou
sands Of miles, and then refused to usurp
the regal dignity, or transmit 1t to his
posterity. but first established rules for
an elective administration. Where in
the world can be found such public
spirit? Truly, the sentiments OF the
three dynasties have all at once unex-
pectedly appeared in our day! In ruling
the state, he promoted and fostered good
customs, and did not depend on military
merit. In this he differed from all other
nations. I have seen his portrait. His
air and form are grand and imposing in
a remarkable degree. All, who would not
call him a hero? The United States OF
America regard It promotive of national
virtue generally and extensively neither
to establish titles of nobility and royalty
nor to conform to the age, as respects
customs and public influence, but instead
to deliver over their own public delibera-
tions and inventions SO that the like
of such nation, one so remarkable,
does not exist in ancient or modern
times. Among the people of the Great
West, can any man - fail to pronounce
Washington peerless?" This stone is

Whodunit?

High up on the list of popular fic-
ton are mystery stories, because the
average person enjoys a certain
amount of nlystification. That is, if
the mystiflcation is temporary, and
is relieved at the end by an adequate
solution and explanation of the
crime. Mystery in real life is some
thing else again, and is not highly
appreciated if there is no answer in
sight. Such is the case of the my
sterious individual who teaches your
children all the bad language they
pick up.
The trail starts hopefully, but in
variably peters out. 1t may lead to
Johnny across the street, and from
him down to young Bill in the next
block, but there it dies-or worse
still, leads right back home again, on
Bills assertion that he got the
Objectionable words right from the
mouths of your own little angels-a
manifest absurdity, for you are too
careful to let anything like that hap
pen. Yet, in the maze of contradic-
tory and illusory evidence, there
must be some culprit, for obviously
the little innocents would never
spontaneously evolve any language
so crude. Whodunit?

poleon had made him senator, a
count of the empire and a member
of the Legion of Honor. But more
graceful homage to him may be
found in the fact that a beautiful

Waste Of Electricity
Complained About.

TO the Editor OF The Star:
Since The Star for June % carries an
advertisement by the Potomac Electric
Power Co. to the effect that Waste in
War Is Crime" and that there is mo
excuse for wanton and improvident use"
of electricity, may call attention to a
form of waste that I. and I am sure
others, have observed with indignation?
I refer to the fact that every Saturday
and Sunday afternoon moving picture
houses turn on from 200 to over 400 elec-
trio light bulbs at their entrances and
keep those lights burning from about
2 o'clock on in broad daylight, frequently
in blazing sunlight Until Oakland
that is after o'clock at this season
the electricity is utterly wasted Six
hours OF useless high-powered illumina-
ton that burns up fuel. People don't
go to moving picture because the en-
trance to the theater is brightly lighted.
even at night, and in the afternoons I
suspect many of the patrons enter with
out realizing that the lights are burning.
There are over 40 theaters in the Dis
trict where this goes on every Saturday
and Sunday-not to mention two hours
Of unnecessary lighting from to 8

ESTHER E. GALBRAITH.

Mercy for q Traitor

Max Stephan, convicted traitor,
had little reason to hope for mercy
at the hands of the Nation he tried
to betray.
There is no evidence whatsoever
that he has the slightest sense OF
loyalty to the United States. Born
In Germany, he became naturalized
citizen of this country and accepted
all of the benefits that went with his
citizenship. But there was no feeling
of gratitude in his heart. After he
had been convicted of treason for
assisting in the escape of a captured
Nazi aviator, Stephan said: MY
blood is German. I am not sorry
for what I have done and I would
do it again." In this same period
he openly proclaimed his belief in a
German victory and boasted that
Hitler would never let him hang.
In sentencing Stephan to death,
the trial judge made it clear that
he was imposing the supreme penalty
as a deterrent to other fifth COL
umnists who might also want to give
aid and comfort to the enemy.
1--WE have been too soft, to the
extent of being mushy," the Judge
said. There are too many in the
sob squad and 700 few in the fighting
squad. If the lives of many
of our boys are to be taken lin COM
bat), this court should not hesitate
to take the life of one traitor if
that, in turn will help win the war
by discouraging other actual or
potential traitors.
The logic of this view is persuasive.
There is probably nothing that
Stephan would not have done to aid
his native land in it's war against
his adopted country And there is
a possibility that the clemency which
has been shown him may encourage
others to dabble in treason, believing
that their lives will not be forfeited
If caught.
Granting all Of this, however, there
Is something in the minds of most
men which will convince them that
the decision the President has made
is the right one. The picture that we
get of Stephan, weeping and kissing
the hands of the lawyer who brought
him the news that he had been saved
from the gallows, is not pleasant
one. We will win the war, whether
Stephan lives or dies, and on the
day of victory most of us will be glad
that the Government of the United
States did not take the life of this
thoroughly contemplate individual.
