Standards in Hurricanes

Measured by the standards of the 1888 hurricane the one the other night did not quite equal the former, that Is to say there was not the wholesale destruction. Whereas the hurricane of 1888 leaped about here and there destroying in big way, the 1944 hurricane plodded along creating havoc in smaller way, but not missing much territory. There was less destruction of homes and building and less loss of lives the other night.
 On the other hand there was very little property that did not look, as they say, as If a cyclone had struck 1t. All the trees were not felled but there was a pretty systematic splitting and snapping off of kWigs and branches. In every street you kaW, last week, piles of small and large Lbranches. Here and there was whole Ikree across front doorstep, or against barn or garage. The general appearance presented a more or less Shambles. out An the country there was more of this. The number of wires down, too, was large in all areas. So as we said, paradoxically, there was large damage in small way, If we make ourselves clear. If we had not had the devastating hurricane as of 1888, the one last week would have been classed as a major catastrophe. And all the incl dental destruction scattered over so large an area adds up to large damage figures
 When we view the systematic destruc- kion in our own area, which merely gives us few days work and few days slight discomfort we once again feel that we are fortunate in this land of ours to have escaped destruction and the appearance Of shambles by bombing. So let's go on with the sweeping up if we have not yet cleared up the premises. The hurricane was bad, but 1t might have been worse

v.DAY CELEBRATION
(The cathollc TranscrIpN

NIIG OhtIlVlC AEuAhOCEAptl
 If the V.Day celebration follows the pattern of November, 1918, 1t will be c kind of saturanalia of bell. ringing, whiStle-blowing, Spontan. eous parades and general hoopsla, American citizens of 1918, unable to foreSee the future, felt the ArniiStice meant an end of war for them and for their children and their chil- dren's children. If they had Sus. pected that, mere quarter of c century later, another and q greater war would come, their unrestrained rejoicing might have been trans- formed into sad and sober prayer against such c calamity.
 Today the citizens of the United States know only too well that the end of one war is not the end os oil wars They know that faulty making of the peace which will fol. low this war may SOW the seeds of future conflicts, They know that mere military victory over Germany and Japan is not enough.
 V-Day, the day Of victory not over Germany alone, but the day upon which the guns are Btilled everywhere. should. we believe, be devoted to sober thanksgiving and anxious petition. The thanksgiving should Do sober because of the dark perlls that viii menace the hoped for peace. The petition should Do anxious because those perils will not be easily aVerted if nationaiistio Seifishness and grasping imperialism are allowed to become tho prime motives of the conferees ct tho peace table.
 Victory over Germany Is Of course 6 major step toward the establlshs ment of temporary peace in this warning world For that reason rec joicing over the victory Is not only proper but inevitable. n fact, how. ever, temporary peace will not come to Us until Japan falls. And pernia. rent peace will not come until It's Vivifying spirit afiiinates every nae ton. that vivifying spirit which in tic wards of Plus XII Is 70 justice which with impartial nieags ire, gives to each what iB owing to him and exacts from each what he owes; c justice which does not give oil things to aii, but to all gives love and does nobody wrong; . jus. tice which Is the child Of truth and the mother of healthy freedom and true greatness" That will be the real V-Day for the world.

tests from COP Senator Hawks of New Jersey, and others to start the Senate Investigation. HULLs OFFICIAL DENTALS
 Secretary of State Hull candidly admitted the other day that he uses the official denial to thro down or confuse newspaper stories, but he said his actions have al. ways been paved with good inten. tions,
 Hull was trying to explain his policy of secrecy during the Dum- barton Oaks world security con- ference, and told how many years ago, when he was 6 member Of Congress, he and colleagues on the Ways and Means Committee put sugar on the tariff.free list, Hull said he tried to prevent word of the move from leaking out, for fear the Suggar lobby would raise Q protest,

tons In pre-War years averaged little better than five billion dollars a year. Postwar taxes three times that would mean collections of l6 billion dollars Q year But war taxes are now heading for 45 billion dol- lars a year, nine times the pre.war level. Blough's prediction Is there. fore two-thirds cut from present levels,
 This whole subject of post-war taxation seems to be hot right now, with every economic group in the country backing 1t own pet plan. To Blough this presages "a more ln- tense effort of different economic groups to unload the tax burden upon each other" That is good point of view to bear in mind, THE BURDEN MAY
 GET HEAVIER
 Tn all this preliminary shadow boxing, the Treasury has not come out with any plan of It's own. But ct St. Louis the other day speaking before the National Tax Association, Roy Blough did bring up the sub ject of postwar taxes and because of his position as head of tax re- search, his speech may be regarded as something of Treasury trial balloon.
 How much can we reduce taxes after the war9" Blough asked. And he answered his own question by Probably less than most people think"
 Furthermore, he says that "Per dollar of taxes, the poSt-war load may well be harder to bear in that it will be 0 continuing load with no expectation of early relief. It will not be paid out of war.swollen in- comes and 1t will no longer have the support of war-time patriotism. Many writer's" he says assume that the presence of high taxes, de. signed for war-time use, Is the only obstacle to permanent full employ ment in the post-war period |. The removal of this obstacle may not be enough. That unemployment can occur when taxes arc low Is at- tested by the tragedy of 1920"
 NO SPECIAL PRIVILEGES
 On other points, 1lough merely states the Issues instead of indicate ing q preference for any one policy; recognizing as he does that in the end 1t is Congress that will deter mine finally just what postwar tax policy will be. To the pleaderS for special tax privilege, however, he has Q special word of warning. Tt Is scarcely coneeiVable,' he says, that Congress would increase taxes on any substantial group while decreaS- ing taxes on all other groups"
 Blough's conclusion is that the post-war tax problem is going to be more difficult than the wartime tax problem, which is just what you'd expect.

 Tn the invasion of the island Of Morotai, three hundred miles from the Philippines General MacArthur has reenphAsized two facts for which he is famous and for which Japan must consider him both i'm. placable and infuFIating. He has taken one more stop toward the islands to which he gave his word to return and he has once more outwitted the enemy by hitting one strategic point from the air and then landing ct another from which the defending forces had been with. drawn.
