THE DUMbAR1ON PLAN
San Diego Union)

(San Diego Union)
In spite Of the secrecy which sur
rounded the DumbartOn Oaks prelimin-
AIRY peace conference, there are no sur
prises in the plan as finally disclosed to
the public. In general the plan offers
another league of nations. this time with
teeth" in it. whose functions are sub
divided into a security council domi-
mated by the Big Four, an assembly en-
bracinp all peace loving nations, an
economic council and court of interna
tional Justice. The security council"
would have power to declare aggressors
and to take steps to deal with them
forcibly. if necessary.
A stumbling block yet to be overcome
is Russia's insistence that members of
the Big Four should have power to veto
any charge of aggression against any of
the four powers. In other words. Russia,
Britain, the United States and China
cannot be declared aggresSOrs except by
their own consent. Such an arrangement,
Of course. would mullify practically the
entire scheme; certainly it would not
inspire any confidence in the lesser ma
tions, belonging to the assembly.
a further point certain to be the sub
iect of sharp debate is the use of armed
forces against IN aggressor nation mere
~ on orders from the security council
As such use of armed forces is a form of
war. or quite likely to lead to war; the
use of American forces in this respect
would be clear violation of the Consti-
tuition, which places OH congress sole re-
spOnsibility to declare war. This proVl-
sion. to which the national administra-
ton evidently stands committed, also
suggests possible complications due to
the fact that moneys for war purposes,
whether on large or small scale, can
only be appropriated by congress.
Other features Of the plan follow more
or less the pattern Of the old league and
its court of international justice. 1t is.
as Secretary Hull says, preliminary and
subject to revision. But there is a DOS
sibility that the plan as it stands will be
subject to vigorous debate when congress

THE GLORY THAT WAS GREECE
Riverside Daily Press

One of the most satisfactory allied
achievements Of the present European
war has been their driving of the modern
barbarians out of Greece. 1t should
arouse special thrill in Americans fam
liar with the culture and glory of an
cient Greece in the age of Pericles. At
that time the little Greek nation on the
Hellenic peninsula probably equalled or
surpassed in culture and intelligence any
people arising in modern times.
1t was the science art, poetry and
humane philosophy of Hellas that arous-
ed sleeping Europe again after the middle
ages The torch Of Greek learning still
lighted up the "humanities" in American
schools and colleges until the beginning
Of the present century.
Now, unfortunately, the old and eager
spirit which sought knowledge, truth and
beauty for their own sake, has given way
almost everywhere to mere factual in
formation, neglecting the ancient spirit
Of learning and the riches Of human
nature.
1t is good, at least for an hour or two,
for our new world" materialists to turn
back to that glorious race that flourish
ed around the Aegean sea and on the
Greek islands $500 years ago, creating
modern life and art and ways OF thought
which are still valid.

If The labor vote Is going to cut
any ice at all in this coming cleo
ton. one of the important factors
may be the shifts of people who
have gone from one state to another
to take war jobs since the 1910 cleo
ton.
u. S. Bureau of Census, in making
is estimates that the tCtal number
OF potential voters in 1914 will be
88, 900, ,O0O-an increase of more than
8.O00.0Q1 over 1940-came to the sta
tistical conclusion that it would be
impossible to measure the effect OF
migration on this years vote, fer
three reasons:
First, because part of this migra-
ton has been within the states and
not across state lines; second, be-
cause many of the moves were TOO
late to permit re-registration at new
addresses. third, because many OF
the migrating workers may vote by
mail in the states and precincts of
their 1910 residences.
In estimating the potential num-
Der of voters at 88,6O0.000 the Gen.
suS Bureau was not, of course, pre-
dieting how many of this number
Of voting age would actually regis
ter and vote. If the same percentage
-62.4 per cent of the eligible voters
goes tc the polls in 1914 as in 1910,
then the total vote would be 55.000-
900. which would be a record.

Employees Given
Needed Time
Off for Voting

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. lin
response to numerous inquiries con-
cerning the application of Section
5699 of the Election Code as to the
rights of employees to take time off
to vote in the coming general cleo
ton, John F. Dalton, state labor
commissioner, said Tuesday:
The attorney general Of Califor-
MIA has rendered an opinion to the
effect that employees are entitled to
whatever time off is necessary for
them tc vote, up to two hours. be-
tween the time of opening and the
time of closing the polls, and that
hev are rot entitled TO any time off
if the Facts show trat nc time off IS
nec1eo.
The section prcN.GcS that:
Every voter SHAH, on the day OF
every general. direct primary CT
presidential primary election at
which he is entitled to vote, be en-
titled to absent himcelf from any
service or employment in which he
is then engaged, for two consecutive
hours between the time of opening
and the time of closing the polls.
The voter shall not, because OF SO
absenting himself, be liable to any
penalty. nor shall any deduction be
made on account of such absence
from his usual salary or wages.

out that the employees shall be paid
for the actual time off as required

THE DOPESTERS ARE
BUSY CALCULATING

While Census Bureau makes no
estimates of the number of actual
votes that will be cast in each state
this year. figures compiled by three
Bureau of Labor Statistics research
ers are being studied with consid-
cradle interest by political dope
SterS.
The three Labor Department re-
.earchers - Emile Benoit-Smullyan,
Bettina G. Conant and Maxine An
derson-Were not primarily inter-
ested in voting strength. What they
were after was a preliminary sur
vey Of postwar employment prob
lens and the economic impact OF
the end of the war on the nation as
well as various states. Their figures,
however, have an incidental politl-
cal interest in showing where the
migration of potential voters has
been heaviest.
Eighteen states have experienced
a net gain in population during the
war wears. says the BIS study as
reported in the Monthly Labor Re-
view. while 80 states had loss.
These figures are on total popula-
tion by the way, and not just en-
adults of voting age.
California has had the biggest
cain. 100000. If California labor
goes for Roosevelt, as is generally
expected, that gain would give the
Democrats an advantage.
washington, Ohio and Michigan
each gained more than a quarter CT
a million, the movement being
largely in industrial workers ana
their families, thus throwing a po-
tential labor vote advantage IN
states which both Democrats and
Rerublicans have been claiming.
SOME GAINS MAKE NO DlF-
FERENCE-BUT OTHERS MIGHT
The states which show a net mi
eration population gain between
100000 and 250,000 are Connecticut
1877 900: Florida, 10000; Maryland,
235. 600, New Jersey, 184,c00; Oregon,
1873 OCO: Virginia. $4,000. The gains
in Florida. Maryland and Virginia.
normally Democratic, would make
no difference in the end result. The
question is whether this gain is
enough to swing the election in Con-
necticut, New Jersey and oregon.
The other side of the political
strategy map is to see what states
lost population. and what e11ect
that might have on the election. The
Zig net population losers through
migration of labor are:
Alabama 10000; Arkansas 22o.-
eco; Georgia, 100000; Iowa, 10000;
Kentucky, 262 1000; Minnesota, l9l,-

Hurbors Moved
To Normandy

er the D-Day landlngS-the erection
of seven miles Of artificial harbors.
The harbcrs, containing nearly
6OC.0O tons of concrete and 10000
tons of stsel, were constructed in
England and towed piece by piece
across tire channel.
Stories CT this tremendous and al
most inconceivable feat. which was
credited largely with success Of the
invasion, were released by censor
ship for the first time today
The size of the task can be mag
ined as comparable to building the
Mobile. Alabama, harbor at New
Orleans and then towing it into po-
siticn. Moreover, tEese harbors were
built under the nose of the enemy
They were put to use for unload
ing seagoing vessels along lonely
stretches of French aches where
little more than two rowboatS ever
had discharged cargoes before.
The British karbor worked fully
but the American harbor, which was
laid by Captain Augustus Clarke OF
the U. S. Navy, was hit by heavy
storm which bypaSsed the British
one.
The storm smashed tops of the
concrete caissons, tumbled tons OF
steel as if they were playthings
and turned mcnths OF work into a
mess in a matter Of hours. Captain
Clarke estimated later that the
storm lad a 10 per cent effect on
the harbor.
We watched from Captain CiarEe's
submarine chase as the great con-
crete and steel structure was sunk
into place by American tugboat
crews.
The idea for the harbor was part
" that of Prime Minister Winston
Churchill, vino helped work cut the
plans in 1912.
Thy involved building :. rartly
charted shoals, ports where a min
imum of 10000 tons a day could be
unloaded for at least 80 dayS-more
than the capacity Of all French
harbor2 which might be captured in
that time.
The services Of 10000 mn were
REQUIRED TO build the massive con-
crete and steel piers.
The whole layout was towed ever
by tugboats bv D-Day plus five and
included so ships, ranging ur to the
ancient 25,5o0-ton British battle
ship Centurion, which were sunk
deliberately in lines as block ships.
