lCKES TURNS HANDS
TO RUNNING PRESS

With nothing else to do Harold lckes
secretary of the interior now turns his
attention to reforming" the American
Press. He starts on the thesis that what
ever displeases him, or that with which
he does not agree is all wrong. Standing
on the age-old independence of the press,
we pause here to suggest that the Secre-
tary will do we'll to attend more studious-
ly to the business he is entrusted with
for the people at a salary Of $4,000 a
year.
Honest" Harold's latest outburst fol
lowed Immediately after the sweeping
victory of the New Deal at the polls. A
victory contributed to in a large way by
political bosses. And this reminds us
that Ickes burst into the limelight a few
years ago as an Atlas carrying the ma
tons burden of fighting these same
bosses, or their predecessors. Now he is
where he is with the help Of such bosses.
So happens. Mr.. Ickes, the Press has
not changed, that is the segment of the
Press he thinks Is so far off the mark.
His complaint on which he would build
his reform move is with that portion of
the press which did not support the New
Deal fourth term president Not little
of the fight waged in the newspapers
in opposition to the New Deal candidate
was aimed at the ilk like Hague, Kelly
and Pendergast.
No less a type of "bossism' is the New
Deals piling up federal payroll year
after year as a backlog of voters. IN
cidentally. Mr.. lckeS it is to he noted that
this army of employees now is beyond the
100000 mark, Just about the extent of
the popular vote majority for Mr.. lckes'
ticket
If it is wrong for newspapers to stand
by their guns to end political gangster-
ism; to contend against power politics
as represented in the New-Deal-made
groups, then the same press he complains
of will stay on being wrong.
If Mr.. Ickes cOndones violation of the
basic law of the land in the un-demOcrat-
ic system of bureau rule now in power,
well enough, but the press he assails so
voubly can't go along with him.
He must travel alone there.

BRiTON VS.. THE BUZZ BOMB
(Christian Science Monitor)

That feeling about the wars being
ali but over-a cOmplacency that afflicts
some people far from battlefields-gets
a rude Jolt from reports on damage by
Germanv's robots True, these reports
originate in Maitland They are like the
"superman's" er-buzz-bOmb itself, in
part missiles of propaganda. But dis
patches recOunting them are being clear
ed through London. So it may be that
Nazi claims have in them q degree OF
truth which Britain would have its Allies
appreciate.
The impression these reports create IS
that the buzz bomb, though probably far
from being the victory weapon the Nazls
would have the German people believe
it to be- is nevertheless a troublesome
factor The V-2. reported by Berlin as

man research and Allied military power
on the western front If the Germans
have a weapon they can launch from the
interior of Germany. the bombing of Brit
ain may 90 on a long time (it has been
under way. even now, for several
months).
The effect Of this bombing in Britain
NAV account in some measure for the
high price British military leaders were
willing TO pay in the attack on Watcher
en- Island outside Antwerp. If the buzz
bomb cannot win a softer peace for Ger
many, and in fact is only likely to intensi
fy demands for rigorous postwar con-
trolls of that nation, it does nevertheless
impose the necessity for an all-out effort
at the first possible moment against the
West Wall.
If it also reminds Americans, and 9th
ers who have escaped the impact of ex-
plosives on their own cities, that the war
seems far from over to the Britisher dig
ging his family, his friends or his posses
sions out Of heap Of buzz-bomb rubble,
it may serve a useful propaganda pur-
pose for the Allies as we'll as the NaZis.

LAST GREAT GERMAN
WARSHIP IS SUNK

book on the Nazi surface navy There
remains of the battle fleet only the 81
000-ton battle cruiser Gneisenau, which,
badly damaged, is supposed to be hoied
up somewhere in the Baltic.
The Scharnhorst sister ship of the
Gneisenau, was sunk off the North Cape
December 26. 1913. when she was lured
within range of the guns OF the British
battleship Duke of York. Torpedoes fin
iShed her off. In September l943, the
Tirpitz was torpedoed by British midget
submarines and badly damaged, in Alien
Fjord ON the Norwegian coast Recently,
the Germans managed to repair her en-
ough to move her to Tromsoe FjOrd,
where she has frequently been a target
for aerial bombs.
On Sunday, according to official Brit
ish announcement. a sky fleet of % Lam
casters caught the Tirpitz in Tromsoe
Fiord and scored several hits with six
ton bombs, which evidently finished the
Job Though the Tirpitz has been kept
out of action by British vigilance. she

voys and her destruction leaves the Allies

Everyone connected with the recently

County, directors, workers and contrib

the success achieved. Many gave much
time to the work in addition to their
own contributions and they have earned
well-marked gratitude of the various or
ganizations dependent upon the funds
for their laudable activities. Raising
nearly $4,000 is no small task and all
