THEY ARE NOT PUMMElING
UP TO SUIT pAC CHIEF

Somewhere along the line the Sidney
1lillman pressure went wrong in raising
his S5,500,000 fourth term slush fund at
a dollar a throw from the CIO member
ship, and now it is indicated the super
pressure about is to be applied. Put mild
ly the drive is to become intensified, or
something like that.
But it is quite evident that the COM
mander-in-chief's right hand booster
over-estimated his ability to produce and
his initial failure ends the game Hill
man simply reckoned without that spirit
of freedom that dominates Americans
He applied the tactics of the country in
which he was born once too often. The
American worker will not be made the
victim of a dictator nor will he succumb
to any Of tie MISUNDERSTANDING
schemes and practices of an alien gov
ernment.
The American worker still knows what
it means to be able to think and act for
himself and all the Hillmans and Browd-
ers in the world cannot break down that
spirit. Members of the CIO are just like
any other American citizen. They have
resented being placed in the position
of submitting to dictator and given the
reputation by the Hillmans of being "pur-
chasable" as a group for any purpose.
They guard their born right to be free
thinkers. If they desire of their own free
will to contribute to the campaign, that
is their right and their own business.
The votes of the CIO members are no
more for sale en- bloc than those of any
other group or organization, big or little.
Hillman's boasts were an insult to the
very five and half million American
citizens he presumes to lead in the ways
of labor benefits Mr.. Hillman has lost
caste with the members of the union.
We shall see whether the order OF the
fourth-term seeker to clear it all through
Sidney" still stands.

SIZING UP DEWEY

(Alfred D. Haworth In CaleXico
Chronicle)
Personal reactions to meeting Tom
Dewey at close quarters.
Neither his pictures nor his radio per-
sonality do him Justice. He has a warm,
human charm | had never suspected.
Things | had read had led me to picture
him as an austere, curt, efficient execu-
tive type, he was the good organizer,
the relentless prosecutor but devoid
of the personal appeal so important to
a political candidate. Sitting not more
than three feet from him in a hotel room
conference | was forced to revise my
opinions. His voice, good on the radio, is
actually a thrilling, resonant baritone
when he is talking in conversational
tone. He radiates charm, has a sparkling
wit, a keen sense of humor that he has
trouble curbing. He's a man you'd enjoy
being with at football game, who huge
ly enjoys Joke on himself and who
wouldn't, suspicion, be above pulling
good Joke on somebody else.

that management of Americas war

from President Roosevelt 1.-The same

strength and unity"
Such leadership, he said, will be
needed in the next four years.
Truman spoke in the first of a Sc

1T won't be any accident that
we find ourselves on the right road
in the years ahead" Truman said
"Reconversion and jobs and Sc

planned ahead for a man with the
kind of greatness the times will
most certainly demand.
THAT means big mana mighty

Building up Brereton's airborne
army to the thousands of planes
required to transport troops and
keep them supplied was the reason.
The army couldn't talk about it at
the time and as a result has taken
terrific criticism for arding
planes, delaying the mails and
holding up war-priority air cargo

that federal policy dealing with dis
posal of surplus farm crops should

to this effect at an interstate con-
ference held at Salt Lake City Sat-

The conference also demanded
early partial reconversion of west
ern industry to avert competitive
advantages by eastern factories, ad-
vocated return of the federal en-
ployment service to state juriscic ic-
ton, and recommended uniform
legislation for air commerce regula-
tions and airport development.

WHO WAS RESPONSIBLE?
(Santa Monica Outlook

(Santa Monica Outlook
1t will soon be three years since the
Pearl Harbor disaster. In all that time
nothing has been done to fix the respon-
sibility for that most humiliating catas-
trophe in the history of the American
Navy or Army.
1t is true special commission was sent
to Honolulu to investigate. 1t was per-
functory in making its findings but put
the blame on General Short and Admiral
Kimmel. They were suspended from
command pending courts-martial.
But no court-martial has been called.
These two men are either guilty or inno-
cent They are entitled to an open trial.
The excuse for delay is that we are still
at war with Japan. War secrets might
be revealed.
This obviously is subterfuge. No war
secrets were involved that would affect
our progress or success in the war against
Japan. The delay has been so inexpli-
cable that serious suspicious have arisen.
The report has gained currency that the
laXity of General Short and Admiral
Kimmel was due to orders they had re-
ceived from Washington.
If this were true, it is shameful that
these two men should suffer disgrace
and contumely unjustly.
1t is strange that the President has
never used his powerful Influence to clear
up this matter He has avoided it stud

OFFICE OF WAR INFORMATION
GETS ECONOMICAL FINALLY
(L.os Angeles Times)


According to the Civil Aeronautics
Board, the Office of War Information has
ordered "all government departments
and agencies to reduce the distribution
of government periodicals, reports and
publications to the absolute minimum
compatible with the prosecution of the
war" Accordingly, those who have been
receiving them will be asked by each de-
partment if they desire to continue re-
ceiving the service and those who do not
reply will be cut off the mailing list.
If the order is vigorously carried out
it will save a vast tonnage of paper,
though at the same time it will consider
ably reduce wastepaper collections. Most
government publications go direct to the
wastebasket. Why after more than two
years and 10 months of war and man
power and paper shortage, the order
should be issued only now is perhaps an
interesting question. But the order is
useful if belated.

Myer Advocates
Japanese
Return TO Coast

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 3. CUP)-
Director Dillon S. Myer OF the war
Relocation authority credited oattle
heroism of japanese Americans
serving in the U. S. army with so1t-
ening the opposition to their return
to the Pacific coast.
Myer, speaking at an interfalth
meeting sponsored by the Pacific
coast committee on American prln-
ciples and fair play, praised the
group for determination to settle
the Japanese problem in this coun-
try through processes CT reason
and in a christian spirit.
SEES CHANGED VIEWS
In the past several months the
temper of public opinion on this
issue has been changing-rapldly
and Enthusiastically" Myer SAID.
Some private organizations that
formerly advocated total exclusion
and mass deportation of Japanese
Americans have softened and modl-
fled their attitudes.
This change has been brought
! about, I am convinced, primarily
by the magnificent combat record
of Japanese American boys in the
. uniform of the U. S. army. They
have fought their way up the penin-
sula of Italy, usually in the very
forefront of the action, taking des-
perate chances, Wiping out machine
gun nests, harassing the enemy from
all sides, driving him relentlessly
back toward the Alps
Myer said the Tooth infantry bat
talon, made up of Japanese Amer
lean boys from Hawaii, had received
1000 Purple Hearts, A Silver Stars,
81 Bronze Stars, nine Distinguished
Service Crosses and three Legion
of Merit medals among the total of
1900 troops that have served in
the unit.
The Tooth battalion is now part
Of the 442nd' regimental combat
/ team, Myer said, made up of thous-
ands of Nisei from the mainland,
including many evacuated from the
west coast.
. To-day there are well over 10000
! American mcE of japanese descent
in the u. S. army uniform" Myer
said, adding that they are serving
in Italy, Burma, China and the
South Pacific islands against the
fanatical hordes from the main jap
anese islands"
Some heroes among these soldiers,
ne added, are more American by
far than the people who shipped
scrap iron and oil to Japan" before

PREvIEW OF THINGS TO COME

Tactical employment of airborne
troops has been developed in Amer
lean army operations in New
Guinea, Africa, Sicily, Italy and
Normandy. In the bigger and blood
ier invasions of the next cosmic
cut-ups, long-range airborne opera
tions will play an increasing part.
That furnishes the link with the

Moscow review the first phases of

In General Brereton'S army there
were not only American, Canadian
and British troops, but also Poles,
Dutch, Belgians and sprinkling de-
tachments from other Allied armies.
New a United Nations airborne

LET EN- TALK,
WAS THE STRATEGY

The way in which speculation was
permitted on possible use of the
First Airborne army to mislead the
Germans on its actual use offers
one of the best examples on record
of how to wage successful psyche
logical warfare.
Creation of the First Airborne
was announced in London early in
August. It's strength was even esti-
mated at 250,000 men-the equiva-
lent of some Is infantry divisions
though this figure included ground
crews necessary for maintenance
and supply.
This announcement came at the
time of General Patton's break
through in Normandy, and as his
forces swept across France the
military experts began to speculate
freely that Brereton's army would
be a natural to hurdle the Sieg-
fried line and the Rhine river, stab
bing the .Nazi rear and opening up
the road right to Berlin.
Nothing was dcne to stop this
speculation. How much it threw the
Germans off their defense strategy
is of course unknown. But when
Brereton's paratroopers and glider
troops landed in Holland, it was a
complete surprise operation.
