An old controversy over what
town in the Nation was first named
after George Washington has been
revived in Congress.
Three States are actively involved
In the feud-Georgia New Hamp-
shire and North Carolina-with
Washington, KY, and Washington,
D. c., also in the running.
1t all started when Representative
Brown, Democrat, of Georgia in
serted in the Congressional Record
an Atlanta journal article entitled
washington, Ga, first of that
name"
The story related that the name
of the town was changed from
Heards Fort to Washington by the
States Legislature in memory of
Gen. Washington's tough winter
with his troops at Valley Forge in
1777-78.
"Thus Washington, Ga, was the
first of many towns to be named
after our first President, although
there are Americans who believe
that Washington, D. c., was the
FIRST" the article said. 1.-THE Ma
tions Capital, actually, was the
fourth city to be thus honored; !;
Washington, N. c., being the sec
ond and Washington, KY, the
third"

= MARSHALL ISLANDS, Mar. 5
Delayed while the United States
aircraft carrier Lexington and bat
tleship Colorado conducted wide
spread search in July, 1887, for Avia-
trix Amelia Earhart Putnam and
her navigator, Fred Noonan, the
japanese government said, There
is no need for American planes to
search the Marshall Islands. We
will search them"
This was disclosed today by the
executive officer of carrier who
aided in the original search.
Interest in the American flyers
fate was renewed by an Associated
Press report relating that an Eng
disappearing mission educated ma
tive named Elieu, 80, told 1t. Eu-
gene B. Began of New York City
and 1t. Jones Toole of Washington
that "a Jap trader named Alma

there are only two kinds Of French
men, those who are for democracy
and those who are for Fascism.
But it seems there is a third sort
OF Frenchman, and that's the sort
we are looking for. This fancy n.y.
brid is not Vichyite, not De
Gaullist, either. He has remained
in France, through the war, with
out joining Vichy and without join
ing the resistance movements. He
has been sitting there like dummy
since 1910. Nobody has been able
to make him talk. The most mon
strous events have taken place, with
out stirring a reaction in him. As
to how useful this inert mass OF
flesh can be to us, nobody has ex-
planned. If there is such a French
man, I know right now I don't like
him. He sounds like slug.
No Such Creature.
I doubt whether there is such a
Frenchman, outside the cemeteries
1t would appear that, forced to
choose between Vichy and De Gaule
we have tried to resolve our dilem-
ma by inventing a third type OF
Frenchman. I do not believe he
exists. This matches the curious
feeling I sometimes have, as I look
over the accumulating instances of
gaposis in our foreign policy, that
we don't exist either.
This would seem to be something
like the Giraud policy, without a
Giraud; a Giraud policy looking for
a Giraud; a diplomatic construc-
ton based on the little man who
isn't there.
I have written a number of times
about American political sluggish
ness" but did not believe we would
go so far as to invent a correspond
ing French political sluggishness to
be its mate. 1t is with a sad heart
that I make these jests; 1 promise
you that I am laughing on only
one side of my face. For every one
has heard about the eagerness of
some of our bureaus to secure en-
ployes who were Indifferent to the
national danger until it was too late
to avert it. Now we seem, incredibly
to be looking for the same kind of
Frenchman.
AS to what we are going to dc
with him when we find him, except
stuff him, cannot imagine.
But we are not going to find him
because he does not exist. At most
he is shadow in our own mirrors
Furthermore, if he is as politically
inert as we think, he will not be
in a position to be of much use to
our invading forces; he won't be
able to surrender anything, because
he won't have anything. The trou-
bic with the curious doctrine of ex-
pediencey-plus-morality which we
are enunciating is that expedient
deals are possible only with men
who are definitely linked with the
enemy; other men have nothing to
be expedient with, or about. Our
expediency invites them, our cur

Irent moral pronouncements reject
them, and the upshot is our pres
ent hunt for an unidentified politi-
cal neuter.
Those who have felt that our for
eign policy is languiShing in a kind
of misty halfway house viii moi
have their doubts reinforced. Un-
committed men are hunting for ar

Right TO Criticize

PHILADELPHIA. May 13 tUP)
The right Of an employer under
the constitutional guarantee Of
Gree speech to say what he

upheld today when the L. S.
Circuit Court Of Appeals denied
the NLRB petition to have the
Edward G.. Budd Manufacturing
Co. and its president, Edward G.
Budd, adjudged guilty of con-
tempt Of court.
Federal judges Jones, Goodrich
and Ganey in a unanimous deci-
sion said that If the effect of
the employers words is TO intimi-
date. coerce or otherwise influence
his employees in the exercise of
their own free will, the employer
would be committing another
offenSe and he must take the
consequences But he does have
the right of free speech and there
is nothing in the Wagner Act
that can take it away from him.

The NLRB claimed that the
contempt was contained in letter
