COMMENT ON WORLD

INDEPENDENT unions, so called
Society, or some such name, demand
recognition as spokesman of "inde,
pendent" unions not affiliated with the
AFL or the CIO or anything.
OF course, when they name them
selves independent" they are not sin
cere because they Immediately demand
privileges which should not be eX-
pected by independents. They want
everything that has been earned by
organizations which are willing, to a
certain extent, to be dependent
Local unions affiliated with the AFL
and with the CIO are willing to sub
ordinate their own desires to the
wishes of Il majority of the members
They hold conventions of representa-
tives of all affiliated locals and learn
what their members want. And then
they all get behind the programs
formulated by the conventions.
But these independents" want none
of this Their central head, ostensibly
elected by the locals demands nothing
for the independents as independents,
but they want everything which has
been earned by the older, more sub
stantial and realistic central bodies
through years of effort. They expect
everything to fall right into their laps.
And they want all this, as we say
not because they want it or are en-
titled to it, but merely because they
say they represent the independents.
So, it all comes back to the question

Eric, we fear, is permitting himself
to be persuaded by his own Oratory.

high as 1000 per cent are not unusual,
with executives salaries advanced 800

When he stops making speeches long

the Truman committee, Eric will, we
are sure, then really know the mean-

TODAY and TOMORROW
BY WALTER LIPPMANN

Public comment in America and
Britain on Polish Soviet relations
has thus far done much more harm
than good. 1t has created a false
impression Of the extent to which
the Western governments could
and would support the present Po-
ish government; this apparent sup
port has strengthened the hand Of
the Polish factions which are ire
concilably anti Soviet and has
weakened the hand of those who
like the late General Sikorski and
the present Premier, Mr.. Mikola-
jczyk, were not anti Russian and
have realized that the liberation
and the security of Poland demand
an understanding with the Soviet
Union.
In Moscow the effect has been
to arouse suspicion and distrust to
which there was no easy answer:
why, it was asked, do London and
Washington continue to befriend a
government which contains such
conspicuous enemies of its ally, and
why do they tolerate a Polish prep
uganda which has verged on incite-
ment to war between the English
speaking nations and the Soviets?
Nevertheless, the situation today
is radically different than it was
in the winter and spring when all
attempts to reach an understand
ing failed. The Red Army is now

the members of the Polish govern.
ment in London to sharp realiza.

Soviet government; as a result the
Prime Minister, who has always
wanted an understanding, has now
for the first time been given full
power to take whatever measures
are necessary to reach an under.

powers long ago but, apparently

between the Soviet Union and the
British Americans have improved
decidedly since the Polish question
was an important cause OF differ
ence between them. The Teheran
military agreements have been full
filled to the letter and have been
executed brilliantly; there can be
40 doubt in Marshal Stains mind
that the alliance against Germany
is faithful and without reservations.
Moreover, agreement has been
reached on the terms of the arnis-
tice to be imposed on Germany,
and this agreement disposes of the
idea that Britain and America have
any intention of trying to use Ger
many to create balance Of pow
err.
The fact that there is genuine
second 'front.' in Normandy and
that the terms for Germany are
satisfactory to the Soviets puts the
whole Polish question il more
favorable perspective. 1t means
that liberated Poland cannot pos
sibly become the spearpoint of an
anti Soviet combination, that lib
Grated Poland must take its place
in a United Nations combination
directed to enforcing the German
settlement. Uncertainty on this cru
cial point has been at the bottom
of the whole affair between Mos
COW and the Polish government in
! London. 80
If the Polish Prime Minister is
able with conviction to confirm the
new fact that Poland knows it must
collaborate with the Soviets in en-
forcing the German settlement,
then he has much to contribute
which Marshal Stain must desire.
The Polish authorities with which
the Red Army is working in lib
Grated Poland do not profess to be
a Polish government, and are not
recognized as such in Moscow. I'm
doubtedly, they represent elements
of the Polish nation which must
), participate in any government that
is capable of uniting the country.
But they do not represent all the
elements. No government will rep
resent all the elements. No gov
eminent will represent all of them
unless it can command the allie
n glance of all the Poles because it
is the legitimate successor of the
government which first took up
arms against Germany. Mr.. Miko-
lajczyk holds in his hands this pow
er CT legitimate succession. He
can dismiss the personnel of the
London government; he can form
new government representing a
coalition of elements of that gov
eminent with the committee now
exercising authority in Poland. On
ly through him can this new gov
eminent obtain a clear title to gov
/ ern.
The legitimacy of the Polish gov
eminent is very important con-
sideraticn to the Soviet Union. For
this government will have to annex
territory which was formerly Po-
fish; it will have to annex territory
which is now German; it will have
to form an alliance with the Soviet
Union and Czechoslovakia; and it
will have to become an enforc-
ing power of the German settle
ment.
To perform these great acts of
sovereignty, it needs an unchal-
lenged title. Without such title,
the government cannot successful
|, 1y reunite the Poles. Failing that,
the territorial and political settle
ment in eastern Europe will lack
stability because Of the internal
| distress of the Polish nation.

Osborne Retains
FOOD, /, Fibre Post

Supervisor Hugh Osborne will
serve as county coordinator and
head of the county food and fiber
committee for another six months,
the county board of supervisors
voted Monday.
1t was called to the boards at
tention that Osborne's continued
help in getting housing for agri-
cultural laborers is imperative. His
appointment was to expire January
l.
'We are having trouble getting
places for the shed labor to live -
Martin Wahl, grower and shipper,
told the supervisors. Osborne has
been working on plans to relieve
the shortage and we need his help
If we don't get places for these
men and their families to live," Wahl
declared, I'VE will be short of help
because they will go where they can
find shelter"
He also pointed out that 500 ,000,-
00C had been appropriated to provide
additional housing in the nation
and Imperial county should get it's
share to alleviate the shortage.

Partial Support
For Fire Trucks

County funds will be used here
after to help finance the state for
estry fire trucks used to fight fires
in the rural areas of Imperial
county.
The board of supervisors Monday
agreed to make up the difference
between what the state pays for this
rural fire protection and what it
costs to man and maintain a truck
in BraWley and another in Ell Gen.
tro. Supervisors also agreed to re-
place the equipment if it is wrecked.
Arrangements were completed

neer for the division of forestry, and

1t was brought out at the board
meeting that the county has had
rural fire protection for the first
time in it's history and farmers are
grateful for the service. The two

case of invasion or sabotage due to
