Rent Deposit
Ban Asked in
Injunction

An immediate injunction against
builders of defense housing to stop
collection of security deposits"
from renters was recommended
today by the federal court by
Special Master Donald L. Quaife.
Quaife further recommended
that all money taken as deposits
should be returned. According TO
an OPA countrywide survey this
would amount 10 $1,000, 900.
The opinion was given in the
case Of two builders, Sanford
Adler Builders, Inc, and Miller
Homes, Inc. Several similar cases
are on file. Since the collection
of security deposits" is common
practice here. according to the
OPA, the opinion will have a far
reaching effect if accepted by fed
eral court.
Builders have been collecting
the deposits as a rent guarantee
and TO protect them from property
damage loss.

PARIS, Nov. II (INS)--A
general German retreat along

Germany to the foothills Of

Jap Fighters
Battle B-29s
Over Kyushu

WASHINGTON, Nov. u (INS)
The war department announced
that B-29 Superfortresses hit the
Omura aircraft factory on Kyushu
Island, Marking and Shanghai in
today's raid on Japan, encounter
ing the first strong fighter opposi-
ton to oppose B-29 raids on
Japan.
Enlarging on an earlier brief
announcement of the raid, the
Twentieth Air Force communique
said the daylight mission con-
tinued the strategic reduction of
the large Omura works which
was begun on Oct. 25 and re-
sumed on Nov. H."

the weather caused diversion of
part of the effort" the commu-
nique revealed, "and some of
the aircraft bombed the docks
at Marking, while others at
tackled military storage and
trans-shipment facilities at
Shanghai.
OPPOSITION STRONG
AT Shanghai the observed
bombing results were fair to
good. At Marking the observed
results were good, with at least
two direct hits on warehouses
and near-misses of a cargo YES

For the first time on a B-29
mission to date, strong fighter
plane opposition was encoun-
tered. Our aircraft report that
they destroyed 20 japanese at

however, was meager."
The communique said ii is i'm

intercepted the four G n & i n e d

tional advance Of the Red Army Is going
to solve this problem with or without
the Polish government.in- exile.
Prof. Lange made the most thorough
exploration of Polish Russian relations
ana his conclusion, combined with the
conclusions Of Anglo-American ttplo-
matte forces add up Is follows:
First Of all, the Soviet Union desires
10 reach an understanding with the
Polish government in exile. There are
oojectlons to the type Of government as
it exists today, but the Soviet eoyern-
ment prefers q reorganization to q sub.
stttute. It u prepared to recognize the
London government in exile a. leetti.
mate. The initiative to an agreement
will come, the Soviets hope, from this
government. The Soviet government
does not demand the inclusion OF any
specific persons in reorganized govern.
ment. There is no demand, for instance,
that the government include specific
members Of the Union Of Polish Patriots
IN MOSCOW. The example to be followed
would be that Of the UNDERSTANDING
reached between King Peter and the
Tito forces In Yugoslavia. The new
Yueoslav government Is Yusoslav
creation. and its members have not been
picked by the Soviet Union. and are
inclusive Of varieties Of political views,
The present Polish government In
exile Is unsatisfactory because Of the
outspoken anti-Russian trends Of few
OF its members. For instance, there Is
Gen. Sosnkowski, who Is commander in
chief In the present cabinet and has an
anti-Russian record Of long standing.
The Soviets do not ask that he Be
denoted from the Polish Army, but they
want to exclude his powerful political
influence and have objections to his
position as commander in chief.
With the exclusion from positions Of
power Of known anti-Russians the
Soviets hope for . Polish coalition
government most widely inclusive Of all
Polish patriotic parties and forces.
The Soviets do not, therefore, demand
left-wing government, not to mention
a red one. They have no objection to
the inclusion Of conservatives II they are
not anti-Russian. They do not dictate
the internal social structure of the future
Poland. The Soviet objections to the
present government are specific and
strictly limited and they are based upon
considerations Of future Soviet security
and peace and on nothing else.
But what IA the alternative if the
present deadlock continues until Rus
sian forces are on unconteeted Polish
soil?

Do Not Waste Water

The Districts water supply Is
plentiful enough. for the minimum
now Of the Potomac, even in times
Of relative drought. is adequate to
meet Washington's maximum de-
mands. Improvements in the supply
system have increased the produc-
ton capacity Of filtered water, and
even with such a record days con-
sumption - 1877 100000 gallons as
there was on Tuesday. the supply
system is able to keep up. How
long such peak loads could be sus-
tanned, however, without drawing
too heavily on the reserves-which
amount to less than a days supply
on the whole is another question.
The welcome rain of the past
twenty-four hours will reduce-even
II only temporari!y-the citys tre-
mendous thirst. There are other
reasons than production capacity,
however, which enter into the need
for conservation. The supply of
chemicals and other materials used
IN purifying water, and their trans
portation, take away just so much
from the Nations war production
facilities. Every effort is being made
not to tax them by wasteful use OF
water. Back In 1928 it was unlaw-
full to sprinkle lawns or wash down
the streets except during certain
hours. Such prohibitions have not
been necessary in recent years. BY
careful use Of water, they can be
avoided

Gondhi Reconsiders

Mahatma Gandhi's approach to
the Moslem opposition party in India
is significant chiefly as revealing a
changed attitude on the part of the
Hindu leader. There is scant chance
that the All-1ndia Moslem League
will accept Gandhi's suggestion for
a separate Mohammedan state in
India, at least in its present form.
To be sure, that has been the pro-
gram Of the league. But the "Pakis-
TAM" which it advocates. would be
strong enough to stand on its own
feet.
The method of delimitation in
dicated by Mr.. Gandhi is loaded"
from the start in favor Of the Hin
dus, plebiscites being restricted to
those districts where the Moslems
have a clear majority. It takes no
account Of minority elements such
as the Sikhs and the Hindu "de-
pressed classes" who tend to fear the
rule Of Congress Party dominated
by the Brahmin oligarchy. On the
other hand, 1t would permit small
dissident factions among the Mos
lens to vote against "Pakistan" and
thus defeat the project in many
close districts where the total Mos
lem population is only bare major
ity. Furthermore. Gandhi makes
cooperation Of the Moslem League
with the Congress Party a con-
dition precedent to the holding Of
plebiscites. Lastly, the offer was
made, not directly by Gandhi, but
informally through an associate.
The shrewd Mr.. Jinnah, who heads
the Moslem League, is looking this
gift horse in the mouth very sedu-
lousy.
Nevertheless. the mere fact that

Theodore Roosevelt, Jr.

If only a single observation could
be made concerning Theodore Roose-
velt, Junior, it would be that he was
deservedly popular with all classes
of people. He resembled his father
in his capacity to win friends and
his mother in particular talent for
keeping them. Often If not always
in the spotlight, he nevertheless was
totally free from vanity and personal
pride. He valued the reputation of
his family and honorably sought to
enhance it, but He never stopped to
any unworthy concession. His career
from start to finish was useful and
helpful to his country and to the
world at large in the true meaning
Of those words.
Young Teddy was well known in
Washington as boy and as q man.
When he was small, he was included
among the "Bunnies" at the White
House; later, his father unaffectedly
called him Blessed Ted" Those
with whom he was associated con-
sidered him leader not solely for
his daring but likewise for the
rational caution with which he gov
erned it. He liked outdoor recrea-
ton In the tradition Of his tribe, yet
strenuous activity without purpose
did not appeal to him. Wheri he
went exploring in Asia, he was not
merely ION holiday"
The same pragmatic tendency was
noticeable In hts political and ad-
ministrattvs work. 10 vaS q con.
