pared with the professionals who knew
how to handle large masses of troops
and had kept the Allies back with heavy
losses on both sides for more than 40
days.
Heinrich Himmler who was given the
title OF Fuehrer within the Reich is a
Sleuth but not general. Until re-
Gently his chief business was to sup
press every spark OF discomfort in the
Reich by methods Of his own. Every
body knows what the GeStapo methods
are. Overnight he has been elevated to
the dignity of one Of Germany's fore
most officers and entrusted with the
task OF forming new and powerful
reserve army. BY terror methods he is
succeeding In incorporating into these
new forces everybody who can still
walk in the Reich.
Napoleon, who enjoyed a tremendous
popularity in France after his return
from temporary exile on Elba, obtained
q quick response when he called for
men for his new armies. The men were
willing; they were Incorporated in once
world famous units such as the I'M
perial Guard. The prestige of such
units was great. But on the battlefield
their short training was such a handi-
cap that they were not able to defeat
Wellington and Bluechers armies.
u
Neither Hitler nor his remaining
commanders have approached the mill
tary genius of the little Corsican
Modern warfare also demands a longer
and more intense period of training
with the new equipment Himmler's
chances Of making real soldiers out OF
the hodge-podge he is lassoing into the
new" German Army are extremely slim.
Hitler and his henchmen in Germany
are still talking big about fighting to the
last breath, about the exhausting of the
American and British forces and of the
inability Of the Russians to continue
for long their present victories Whether
anybody within the Reich still believes
them is difficult to say. But the fact
that the German soldiers are surrender
ing by the thousand in the east and
yield much more readily to American
British pressure in the west is definite
indication Of what the army thinks of
its chances OF success. An army can
not be made into a political party ma
chine. The Russians realized this when
soon after their defeats in 1941 they
disposed of the political commissars.
Hitler and Himmler have Just installed
them with every command and unit

The main fault of the editorial WAS
that 1t lacked stamina, it had no punch.

Letters to The Star
Readers Dissent From Editorial
On "Philadelphia Crisis"

On "Philadelphia Crisis"
To the Editor Of The star:
May suggest that your editorial Of
August concerning the Philadelphia
transit strike was not conceived in the
light OF the war situation and the sac
rif1ces Negroes are making on every
battle front to establish the four free
doms?
In general you concede that Negroes
should not be denied the right to work,
be promoted and equally compensated.
You state, however, that this should
only be sought through peaceful means,
notably education and the awakening
sense Of conscience and justice of the
American people. Government enforce.,
ment, you seem to think inadvisable
for permanent good. To this respect
fully demur.
In civilization so constituted with
an economy based upon competition as
ours is, nothing Of value comes to the
meek and to those who merely sit and
wait. Liberty and the pursuit Of happi-
ness are the prizes Of vigilant struggle.
The very labor organizations that fight
SO hard to bar Negroes are themselves
the products of bloodshed and persecu-
ton. Where would our freedom Of wor-
ship be if our ancestors had not borne
martyrdcm? Chattel slavery supported
by selfish interests still would be our
lot had not men of vision and humane
feeling been willing to risk their lives.
The tntrenched powers of human
greed must be dealt with by the force
OF the state. I deny that there Is proof
that gains won by force always are dis
sipated later when right and justice
motivate the force. If we did not be-
lieve that force Is justifiable, then why
did we not wait for education and time
to prevent Hitlerism abroad from
spreading to our shores? Where labor
or capital violates the laws safeguard
ing human rights. government must
step in.
