preston to this truth in clear and
unforgettable words: What doth the
Lord require Of thee, but to do Justly,
and to love mercy, and to walk
humbly with thy God"
Spiritual realities are still supreme.
Int world apparently dominated for
. time by force and violence, this
may be difncult to believe, but that
does not alter the facts. The law Of
sowing and reaping is still in effect
In both the physical and the spiritual
realms. Those who have taken the
sword, in order that they might
conquer and rule, will perish by it.
History Is filled with dramatic illus
trations. On the other hand, love
and kindness, brotherhood and good
will In the end will prove more
powerful than tanks and machine
guns, submarines and airplanes.
Human personality Is Of the. great
est worth. Today it seems that little
thought Is given to the value of the
individual. In some eyes. men become
only cannon fodder, or they exist
only for the state. The teaching Of
Jesus is very different. Man was
made in the image Of God, with
powers and capacities, though finite,
like His. The Bible tells us this again
and again. Human dignity needs TO-
be recognized and revered, for nothing
is of more value in the sight of God
than the soul Of man.
Service and sacrifice for others are
our highest duty. Both Judaism and
Christianity are agreed upon that.
The great characters in mans long
struggle upward are aglow with this
truth. The cross is the symbol of
such q spirit In life and in death.
1t Is told of President Coolidge that
once in his ONCE at the White House
q visitor called his attention to q
magazine article which contained a
vicious attack upon the character of
George Washington, asking what he
thought about it. Mr.. Coolidge did
not give direct answer. but quietly
stepped to the window. looked out and
calmly remarked: Il see the WASH
ington Monument still Is standing"
So In the turmoil and tumult of
our day let US be grateful for these
things that are urshaken and in
destructible. towering o'er the wrecks

A Head Man Needed

So complex, immense and varie-
gated is the problem Of surplus
property disposal that Congress can
not be expected to produce the per-
feet legislative solution to it at this
time. Yet, in one major respect at
least, the bill just passed by the Sen
ate seems to fall short of being even
a sound approach toward setting up
adequate machinery to cope with
the situation.
The Senate measure, ignoring one
of the key recommendations Of the
Baruch-Hancock report, would Gre
ate an eight-man board to supervise
the disposal OF surpluses. This board,
to be appointed by the President,
would in turn have an administra-
tive director, but he apparently
would be little more than a clerk,
to use Senator Taft's expression. In
other words, there would be no
clearly defined overall authority,
no one man to make the final de-
cisions, but instead merely an Or
ganization Of several individuals of
equal status, each with his own
ideas on how to dispose of war-ac-
quired Federal properties-ranging
from raw materials to finished
products, from things like ships to
things like giant manufacturing
plants-worth possibly as much as
100 billion dollars.
In its own surplus property bill,
enacted early last week, the House
has adhered to the single admins
traitor idea, and it is to be hoped
that the Senate version will be
brought into line with it In con-
ference. It Is to be hoped, too, that
the legislation in its final form Will
be sufficiently flexible to allow for
contingencies not now foreseeable,
for the problem is one which cannot
be met effectively on the basis OF
rigid restrictions or Limitations
upon the administering authority.

Mr.. Hull and Mr.. Dulles

secretary OF state Hull and JOhn
Foster Dulles, representing Cover
nor Dewey, have agreed that this
country's foreign policy with respect
to the creation of a world security
organization shall not become the
subject of partisan political debate
during the 1914 presidential cam
paign. This area of agreement may
be enlarged later, but even if moth,
ing more is done the talks between
these two men have laid the foun-
dations of an understanding that
will prove to be of real and lasting
benefit to the United States.
Where they disagreed, If their diff
ferences may be called a disagree
ment, apparently was on the ques-
tion of the extent to which foreign
policy, in its relation to peace, may
properly be debated at all. Mr.. Hull
was of the opinion that "the Ameri-
can people consider the subject of
future peace as nonpartisan sub
ject which must be kept entirely out
of politics" Mr. Dulles agreed with
this view, subject to the reservation
that cit did not preclude full, public,
nonpartisan discussion of the means
of attaining a lasting peace"
This is an issue which seems to
boil down to question of what the
two men mean by the language they
USE If we are to be realistic about
the matter, it seems entirely i'm
probable that the subject of future
peace either must or can be kept
entirely out of politics. Ours is po-
litical system and the American
people have every reason to want to
be informed through our political
processes as to the steps being taken
to secure and to maintain peace.
They need not be expected to put
blind trust in any set of leaders in
this vital respect. The fallibility of
public men has been demonstrated
too often to suppose that the peo-
pie, who have had to bear the brunt
of this war and who will bear the
brunt of another one if it comes,
will not want to have appropriate
discussion of the means by which it
is proposed to secure the peace, and
to express their approval or disap-
proval of those means through the
established political processes.
But appropriate discussion of these
problems is quite different thing
from a narrow partisan approach
to such a debate, and for this rea-
son it is very important to know
what Mr. Dulles means when he
makes distinction between "fuh,
public, nonpartisan discussion of
the means of attaining a lasting
peace" and partisan approach"
to the same subject. Fortunately, he
has defined his terms.
To his mind, a partisan approach
sis one which is deliberately divisive
and which takes position about
the future organization of world
peace and security which you do not
honestly believe in but which you
think may get votes"
That is very clear statement of
the kind of politics that should be
kept out of this campaign. And Mr..
Dewey, speaking through Mr.. Dulles,
gives assurance that it will be kept
out If nothing more results from the
Hull-Dulles conversations, this is a

Not Waiting on Europe

The great sweep Of military events
in Europe has once again become
SO dramatic and spectacular that
news from the vast Pacific-Asiatic
theater seems hard put to attract
anything but the most fleeting. at
tention. Yet, as happened shortly
after the f1rst landings on Nor
mandy, when our forces suddenly
struck in the Marianas. develop
ments in the war with Japan may
at any moment shift the spotlight
from the west to the east. at least
long enough to remind us that Allied
power is now a thing of such i'm
mense dimensions that it is capable
of striking major blows on both
sides of the world simultaneously.
Our Far Eastern Allied forces,
from Burma and China to New
Guinea and Guam, are reported to
be elated over the European picture
because it promises that in the not
too-distant future Britain and the
United States, having once disposed
Of Hitler, will be able to concentrate
their full strength against Japan.
But even as matters stand today,
even though much OF our effort must
be devoted to the heavy battles that
may still have to be fought before
the Nazis are liquidated, our power
has grown so great that the Tokyo
war lords cannot count on the
slightest respite. On the contrary,
they can expect nothing but ever
increasing punishment, and being
well aware of that fact, they have
already begun to warn the populace
of the home islands that invasion
Is possible.
The Japanese long ago lost any
Illusions about how they might be
helped by the dispersion Of Allied
forces between the two hemispheres.
They fully realize now that we are
strong enough to wage offensive
war on gigantic scale against both
themselves and the Nazis at the
same time. They have had a fore
taste Of our Super Fortresses over
their homeland. They have seen
the awesome naval might Of our
Task Force 58." They have been
pushed back in Burma and have
been driven out Of so many places
in the Pacific-from the Solomons-
New Guinea area all the way north
ward to the Marianasthat little Of
that ocean remains to them today
but the Dutch East Indies and the
Philippines (which are exposed to
direct attack and their inner de-
tense area running from ,Formosa
through the Bonins northward. 80.
The recent Roosevelt -Nimitz- Mac
Arthur conference at Pearl Harbor,
together with news that Admiral
Lord Louis Mountbatten has Just
returned to his post as Allied COM
mander in Southeast Asia after
military meetings in London, must
surely suggest to Japan that the big
events In the making against it are
not likely to be held in abeyance
pending further developments in
Europe. For the time being the
war against Hitler may monopolize
the top headlines, but momentarily
great things may begin to happen
in the Far East-the Philippines,
for example-and the center of
world interest will then rapidly
shift there. Such is our power.
Such Is our ability to hit with de-
cisive force concurrently in both
east and west. In the long history
of warfare, there has never before
been anything so remarkable as this.
